[b]Victoria[/b]
Victoria had quickly said yes, admittedly she was a little dressed up but she had to visit Dira that morning and drop the documents off at the UK consulate, citizenship was really annoying to deal with. Much as she was jumping the gun a little, she did not want to be having to run about making sure things were ok when she felt like a lost land whale, or give anyone any chance of using tricks or leverage against her as much possible. 

Arriving at Corona Park, she could not get to the house for now as too busy so pulled the dark purple Bentley into a slot with a go or two, not fully used to the larger car, that and an auto. It was easier but it felt like her foot should be doing something... It felt too much like a video game go and stop button almost. Pulling a coat off the back seat, her handbag out the foot well and checking hair and make up before heading out in the mirror, though mostly just enough to make her paler skin seem vaguely healthy looking and less bride of Dracula. The coat was a cute spur of moment buy in London though she did have to have it altered a little to fit properly and it contrasted nicely with her Raven black hair, though her highlights where fading a little.

Letting Isosef keep an eye from afar, anyway, who would easily recognize her here... Too many people... hopefully. Dressed in jeans, comfortable dark boots and a simple striped t- shirt on underneath for comfort with her small Edwardian era ruby short necklace visible under the coat glittering in the sunlight even though it was still a cooler spring day. 

Giving Manami a careful hug greeting her, not to spill coffee on them and her nice dry clean only coat, plus she was feeling a little more tender recently having texted ahead for a decaf with pumpkin spice and cream. Oh how she missed Caffeine. [i][color=6ecff6]"Hey, made it, sorry traffic sucks worse than Central London today. You look nice today, nerdy suits you Manami.

You wanna talk? sounded like a bad morning? Or just grab something to eat?Though can we avoid Indian, ummm. You know.. mornings... Any food you like. Not short on choice?, Or I only live just off Corona Park?"[/color][/i] Victoria was concerned about her somewhat friend, the message was a little out of the blue and a surprise but she just rolled with the changes. She was a little nervous not wanting to tread on any toes and upset her any more. 

Victoria tried to keep things light, sipping coffee with her coat belted up neatly to keep snug and going carefully in the crowds with the rather decorative blue cane for balance. [i][color=6ecff6]"I prefer my car, too orange... I'm more subtle at times. Umbrella... Those uncaffeinated really do seem zombie like... People have a point. Someone was trying to push the pull door for a minute before noticing."[/color][/i] Passing the large Rebellion tent on way to the more food side, a rather large German was shouting about, and making a big show round the bright orange automobile next to another one. [i][color=6ecff6]"Член мариновании [sub]A marinated d#$%[/sub]"[/color][/i]. Swearing a little too fluently, her dad was a sailor. She did not quite enjoy the Chef's TV show, it was ok, but carnage got old eventually, it just was cruel and he had absorbed a fair bit to span Europe, though not really UK or East of Berlin. The Deadalus tend was busy, between the swag and the simulators young and old seemed to be getting involved with a mix of staff in everything from hoodies to full uniforms with a pretty air hostess or two giving the Rebellion girls a competitive look, especially with the Umbrella PR team going all out too. Marlins feet where probably gonna be killing after today stood up for hours, easily spotting the long Blonde hair, uniform and surprising aspect of her, she was pretty good with kids, noted by the one she was helping with a little captains hat.

[b]Marlin[/b]
Marilania was enjoying her day though it was not exactly how she planned to spend hours of her Saturday working on a day she off shift. Teaching flying at this event was easy...heck they did not need them just someone who could fly. But it was compentove so they had ...just had to have the real deal. 
[i]"Valkyrie, you want any coffee? Old man's here and needs to be made more PR friendly?. May need help, you owe us a round anyway"[/i] Marinalia shook her head and followed, her urge to curse him was tempered by kids, plus she really wanted coffee. [i][color=f6989d]"Fine Apollo, get Athena to help too, especially if we getting for the girls up front. Glad I'm only working on this part"[/color][/i] Much as it was fun, they were busy with a capital B and more. Free stuff, or just distrust of anything Umbrella? Rebellion had some cars on show... It looked orange, sleek and shiny. The paint job was pretty garish though. [i]"That's the spirit, Hey Athena, supply run, Boomer can cover and keep Growler distracted. Always loved Rebellion, best race cars this yea..."[/i] Marinalia gave a small face palm, course she forgot Apollo was a part time racing nerd, the urge to drive fast was fun by nothing on flying. [i][color=f6989d]"you volunteered me. Spirit yeah. Prefer flying, fine...fine we can walk by. But you know how well me and anything related to a certain person goes...badly!"[/color][/i]

Her thoughts wandering back, she hoped not to bump into the redish, pink haired lady. Her crewmates would definitely tease her over that one. She had totally jolted like a deer in headlights for a second and it was clear the taller woman was flirting. She just hoped no one got the wrong end of the stick, it was not planned or intended! Granted she was pretty with an excellent figure, but Xia had already managed to stake her claim and somehow crazy worked for them. 

Jolted back once the coffee run was done, they where stood near the rebellion area, Marlin had her traditional sugar overload wafting it's scent out, soon she got dragged over to check out the competition. Apollo was casual but his racing nerd was pulled along, hoodie with flight instructor and his call sign on while Marinalia had her full uniform with stripes and badges and Athena had a company light jacket pulled over a blouse and trousers. [i]"Porsche... Racing spec . Nice flat 6, great power to weight ratio for size,  really reliable with racing trim, upgraded carbon fibre braking and more, bet this one eats tarmac like you do pure diabetes coffee. Wonder if they installed energy collection and used fly by wire for faster responses than linkages"[/i] Marinalia rolled her eyes at the car comments, they got you from A to B, helps if they looked pretty but the tech specs where lost on her. [i][color=f6989d]"so ...it goes fast. Still a car...Fly by wire is great, harder to feel the aircraft though. You call me a nerd? Its ... Hey, my coffee is energising. Come on Athena, back me up. Sol Bank might have some cool stuff to bid on"[/color][/i] The other female pilot gave a laugh as they had their moment. Marlin was a swim nerd and loved flying, he loved anything fast, really they were the same. Sports nerds who loved going quickly and being free. [i]"Valkyrie, you nerd out at the swim challenge on Ninja warrior so ... Yes, still I felt buzz like 5 hours later... Oh, it's the cute racing driver you knew, while you gush about a flat Vs V, or try to blend in dressed like you walked off VIP duty. He saw you already. Toodles

Do you mind signing something for me, just to make my racing nerd collique jealous and my little brother love me forever? He loves go kart racing and now has  your number on his. Hope you don't mind, you got a well meaning copycat"[/i] Athena headed over, leaving a Marlin and Apollo by the car both working if there more normally quiet friend insulted them both or was just different out of work. Meanwhile Marlins sweet coffee scent drifted mixed in with smells of freshly polished cars and the mix of coffee and people. 

All happening while the Asian Brunette tried her best to be the best sister ever, at least for a week.
