[quote=floodtalon] "Are you hitting on me?" Flood asked as he grabbed his gun off of Devika's head. " If so then no. If you mean as friends then whatever." Flood began writing some notes down. " It appears that certain people have auto defenses against fear. Will need to find way past them in future." He noted as he put away the gun. "Thanks for helping me out Devika. I feel like I have a better grasp on the mechanics behind this. I need to find a way so the effect can last long after I stop firing. Maybe I'll go see Professor Crane about it." He said as he worked on his mask a bit more, sketching the details out. [/quote] "It was a pleasure to help, Flood." She smiled a bit, doing her best to completely ignore Gretchen. "If you come up with something strong enough to freak me out, I'll be impressed." It wasn't quite bragging, it was just honest. Devika wasn't really sure that she could be made to feel artificial fear. Maybe if someone had something she was truly, genuinely afraid of... "Hey... when you're done with your mask, maybe you can design one for me." She chuckled, then waved. "See you later." She went to take a quick shower in the girl's locker room.
