((Okay!))
Ash went into the Subway, hoping to get a BLT or something. She got into the line, pulling out her new phone. She scrolled through her Twitter notifications, looking like a normal person.

((Awesomeness. So the question is, where's Mariana? If you don't want them to be separated that's fine; them acclimatizing to the base would work just as well to give them a place to start.
In the meantime, would you like to start with the twins?
Ah. Mariana could be going to Subway, I suppose?))

Oh, I was thinking that Mariana and the twins would be separated for now and they could find each other later. She could be in any part of the world too)

((Okay. So the twins are in Stuttgart and Mariana is elsewhere. I guess Ash is in Stuttgart too. I'm not sure how to get them all talking though...
Hmm. My character is a WK soldier, with young children at the base, so maybe he could interact with the twins, and Ash and Mariana could be somewhere else? I'm not sure. It actually seems like a hodgepodge of characters who are pretty different and under most circumstances wouldn't interact.))

Lmao ok, Ash and Mariana could meet. The twins could meet your characters in Stuttgart and the subway could be in the US? They're pretty popular here 😂 at least in my state)

Ash nodded to her coworker as she told him what kind of sandwich she wanted. "Can I get the Italian BLT with extra lettuce, no cheese, and mayo?" she asked him.

So, the twins with Ice and Mariana with Ash. Got it)
Mariana ran behind a building, her stomach rumbling loudly. It'd been awhile since she'd eaten and there was a Subway across the street that she could get a quick bite before heading back on the road. Maybe a bird, it was always fun to fly every now and then. She shifted back into her human body, silently thanking the clothes chip the WK had given her. After adjusting her jacket, she looked around, checking for witnesses and jogged to the Subway.

She knew Dave knew she was a shapeshifter and he wasn't, but he didn't care. He was too cool to care abut a silly thing like that. She glanced out the window and saw a girl jogging toward the Subway, and she looked hungry. Ash hoped this girl wasn't from the WK. Or the RK for that matter. Or, even better, not a shifter.

((Just for reference, this character is 33 and is about 5’10 with a buzz cut. Light brown hair and an average skin tone. Light brown eyes. Pretty stocky and broad-shouldered.))
Bernard sat in the break room, a sandwich and bottle of water on the table in front of him and his phone in his hand. He finished a text to his wife, hit Send, and sat back to enjoy his lunch.
((You could say they're brand new to the base and have some questions for him, Zuresian?))

Opening the door, she noticed only one other person inside and chose to ignore them so that she could get in and out quickly. "How may I help you?" The worker asked, "a toasted BLT with American cheese and mayo please."
"Do you want to make that a meal?" "Yes please."

Aspen walked inside, stretching her arms above her head "hello" she greets, sitting down at the table with an older man. "I'm Aspen."

Dave's sunglasses flashed as he handed Ash her meal. "Here ya go, Ash. Be careful. You never know who could be a spy from either kingdom..." he said, looking genuinely worrie. "I'll be fine, Dave. I'm careful." Ash replied, scooping up the bag. "Don't forget we have noon shift!" Dave called to her as she sashayed to a table on the other side of the restaurant.

Bernard looked up without moving his head, raising his eyebrows. In the first moment he was surprised to be so directly approached by a teenager who didn't even look old enough to be a soldier. In the second moment he had swallowed the first bite of his sandwich, realized she looked familiar, and begun processing the name. In the third moment he managed to put it all together and asked, "Aspen Huxley?"

You see, your name was dropped by a soldier or two and I figured you could clear up some confusion for my brother and I. We're a little new here" Aspen confessed, folding her hands together.

Mariana noticed the customer and worker talking quietly while he handed her, her meal. She was immediately on guard, knowing that the USA was on the RK's side. "Come up to the register or pay for your meal" the worker says, pulling her from her thoughts. "Sorry, I've been on a long trip and I'm a little burnt out" Mariana says, rushing over to register and paying the amount needed for her meal. She dipped her head in thanks before sitting down at a booth.

"I know," Bernard said, wondering in the back of his mind who might have mentioned him. "You're the sixteen-year-old consultant, yes?"
((What exactly might the WK be using her for? Weapons, equipment, biochemistry? I kind of like the idea of her designing weapons since we've done countless plotlines with direct shifter experimentation in the past. This would be something new.))

Ash checked her watch. I have 15 minutes to eat this Good enough. She started on her sandwich. daveame over a couple minutes later. "I'm on break. Are you SURE your being careful? I get a bit... worried is the best word." he said. "I would never lie to you, Dave." Ash responded, sighing. "I had a few run-ins, but I'm fine!" The two were talking at a normal volume now. "Besides, if I run into a shifter who is sided with a kingdom, you KNOW I'll pretend not to be a shifter!"

(The WK could be using Aspen for that. I hadn't actually thought that far ahead yet, as for Camden he could just be helping out wherever he's needed.) Aspen chuckled "yup. Though I didn't think I had a title. "Consultant" I like that" she jokes, before sitting back in her seat. "I mainly want to know how things are run around here. Is there a hierarchy? Are there certain unspoken rules we should know about while we're here?"

"Besides, if I run into a shifter who is sided with a kingdom, you KNOW I'll pretend not to be a shifter!" Mariana heard their exchange and her body stiffened "great. A Shifter" she cursed, looking over at the girl. Her hand made its way to her waist where she kept a knife "are you red kingdom?" She calls out, ready to brandish it. Just when she thought she could relax, she runs into a Shifter. Is there no such thing as peace anymore in this world? Can't even eat her darn sandwich without worrying about running into people in the war.

((Ash is already the most careless shifter in the entire history of this Rp. Impressive. XD))
"Hierarchy, sure. We are, in part, a military." He felt a little weird just launching into it with no formal introduction, but it seemed she already knew his name. He had to wonder how she'd been able to identify him, though. "Slow down, though. How long have you been here?"
((Camden actually probably wouldn't be involved in the engineering stuff, but the WK would give them both a home in exchange for Aspen's help if she's as good as her form makes her sound.))

"I am aligned to no one." Ash responded. "I'd rather stay free than be bound by promises and oaths and stupid things like that." Dave nodded. "I know my co-worker too well. She would NEVER side with either kingdom." he said.

(I figured that's how it might be) "Right, military... That's a thing." Aspen comments, sighing quietly. "We had a bit of time to settle in, a day or two. I was briefed, told what I'd be consulting on then left to my own thoughts. I've been reading up a little on what you guys have in terms of weaponry and technological advances. All that jazz."

She would NEVER side with either kingdom." he said. Mariana let out a sigh and slid her hand away from her knife "still, telling everyone here you're a Shifter? You're too careless for what's going on around you. What you have done if I were Red Kingdom? They aren't the nicest bunch when it comes to Shifter" she didn't mean to lecture, but the girl looked young ish. Maybe around the twin's age, she needed to learn that in a time where enemies were around every corner, you didn't announce to the world and place a target on yourself. It was better to hang low until everything settled itself.

"Not telling everyone. I'm having a private convo with Dave, ad it's rude to interrupt." Ash corrected. Dave nodded, sunglasses hiding the laughter in his eyes, face seemingly expressionless.
((Sorry for shortness...))
((Also, she's normally not this careless, I just wanted to have an actual interaction. Maybe Mariana could offer a good spot in the WK that makes more money than Sooubway?))
