(S9/Brad/Aurora) The awkward pause grows until it's almost too large to handle effectively, but Aurum is prepared. She will wield her years of proper social decorum as if they were weapons designed for this very foe. Brad's narcissism will not go unchecked, and Kioshi's feelings will not be left to founder.

She places her hands behind her back, rocking on her heels in a girlish way. "Brad says he's heard of you, Kioshi. But he couldn't find you in the room.  I believe that's due to her being such an effective Kunoichi, isn't it?"

With the subtle compliment, she looks to Brad, forcing him to acknowledge her. His response is guaranteed to either expose him, or force him into talking about, or to, Kioshi.

Aegis gives the attendant a flat look. She then breaks into a ridiculous smile. "Oh, absolutely! Let me just take it with me..." She begins pushing the bowl around the counter with her wing nubs, making as if she's going to grab it, repeatedly failing. "Oh look, I can't seem to take hold of it because I DON'T HAVE HANDS."

At the last few words she drops the act and waggles her nubs at the attendant. "Look, just push it over here so I can take it in my mouth. Please?" She glowers.

Partha emits a couple of soft moans, not loud enough to intrude on the conversation beside her.

"Bubububb...I'm fine..."

Aurora's first word is lost as she has lowered herself into the water to the point to where only her eyes and nose are above the waterline. She watches the approaching pair with wary eyes.
