Only when Don spun close by to kiss her on her cheek did Amy finally snap out of the golden machine's hypnosis, although the realization was slow.

"Did... did that asshole just...?"

[i]Cling. Clunk clunk clunk. Brrrrrrr.[/i]

Then Amy rose to her feet, clutching tightly onto her purse in one hand while the other, her sword of [i]death,[/i] unsheathed and prepared itself for a battering. As she made her way towards the table, however, something had completely stopped her in her tracks.

Moira had snapped, flipped over the table, scared many of the surrounding patrons, was shocked by Syed to stop any further rampaging, then escorted out by security. That other new girl - Xandra, was it? - followed shortly after.

Amy just stared as the scene played out before her, before giving Don a lingering glare. She sheathed her sword and trailed off after the Moira and the others - just quick enough to catch the metallurgist making her apology.

She opened her mouth to say something - whether to Moira, or Xandra, or the guards, or hell even Syed - but she instead kept it closed, not wanting to add onto the situation any further until it was necessary. The new girl's polite plea should be enough, she hoped. So long as Moira didn't try to pick a fight with the guards after putting on the show that she did, the worst it could end is having her and the others booted out. Hopefully they wouldn't be pissed enough to bar her from the hotel in its entirety; as much as Amy was willing to chuck the small amount of money she had earned during her hypnosis, she wasn't sure it would be enough to get these guys to change their mind. But she was ready to anyway.

While she wouldn't feel at all embarrassed, second-hand or not, with Thunderhawk their 'leader' inevitably finding out (he must be used to the Pride's antics by now) - like Syed she was relatively troubled with the other two new girls who were joining their team. Hopefully everything that's happened so far wouldn't hamper how well they collaborate throughout the rest of their mission. Her eyes flicked between Xandra and the guards.

First impressions were fuckin everything.

Trixie immediately dropped everything in her hands the moment Moira flipped the roulette table. She plastered her tiny hands over her mouth, watching with wide, scared eyes as the berserker snapped. She wasn't - Boss wasn't gonna attack them all next, was she? Trixie immediately fled for someone nearby - anyone nearby - Lucien - and she hid behind Lucien's legs, seating her back directly against him so she would not be visible to Moira's broiling rage.

Then Syed stepped in and zapped some sense into her before they were taken away by the popo. Trixie's shoulders deflated with utmost relief, but her trembling hands never left her face. Not until Dylan and Lucien noticed the fear in her eyes and comforted her with ditching the place and snagging some ice cream.

"Y, yeah," she gulped. "Let's find Supersis. And I'd... ice cream would be nice. But..." she looked to both the artist and the summoner, tears not yet forming in her eyes - but they were damn well close to. "Will Boss be okay?"

She reached a hand up towards them, silently requesting for them to pull her up. Yeah she could help herself up just fine, but she always associated this movement with a sense of comfort.
