[color=#7FFFD4][b]"You're the one that was late, you figure it out."[/b][/color] Nora playfully nudged ID's shoulder and stepped to the side. There was a momentary pause before she continued in a much more snide tone. [color=#7FFFD4][b]"So, While I was out here alone eating my MRE's you had a home made breakfast and had some eye candy to look at as well. Am I getting all that right?"[/b][/color] She slung her LMG to the side and crossed her arms, The face plate to her helmet slid open with a hiss to reveal a rather dubious expression. While not entirely upset by the turn of events, Nora was going to milk every ounce of teasing she could get out of it. Wasn't her fault her partner didn't have thick skin despite her powers. [b][color=#db60b0]"What?! No??"[/color][/b] ID answered indignantly, though she couldn’t hide the steamy flush of rapidly melting snow. She folded her arms. [b][color=#db60b0]"You know what?? Yeah! I [i]did[/i] have a home cooked meal, and [i]Mr. Muscles[/i] cooked it!"[/color][/b] ID thrust her finger at the merc with an accusatory note. [b][color=#db60b0]"And it was [i]fucking delicious[/i]! You and your MREs,"[/color][/b] she muttered. The little jab at her rations did little to stop Nora. [color=#7FFFD4][b]"Oh so [i]Mr.Muscles[/i] can also cook, can he? What, is he meeting all of your standards, hmm?"[/b][/color] Despite the rather flat tone to her voice Nora was practically grinning as she leaned closer towards ID to try and see her face. Though given the rising heat she really didn’t need to see if she was blushing or not. [b][color=#db60b0]"Nooo?!!"[/color][/b] The temperature rose again. [b][color=#db60b0]"It’s purely contractual: I’m just helping them with a favor,"[/color][/b] she huffed, actively looking away under the guise of searching for the key panel, despite being shrouded in steam. Too easy. [color=#7FFFD4][b]"oh . . . So you aren’t interested in seeing him again?"[/b][/color] Nora leaned in just a tad closer and began dropping the temperature just a touch. It had been a [i]while[/i] since she had seen ID squirm like this. ID spluttered uncomfortably rather than answer. Luckily she didn’t need to, since the rush of heat uncovered an oddly shaped rock nearby. [b][color=#db60b0]"O-oh hey there it is!"[/color][/b] ID shuffled nervously past the merc, clearing her throat. [b][color=#db60b0]"The elevator is powered by its own generator that goes dormant when it's not in use,"[/color][/b] she explained… changing the subject. [b][color=#db60b0]"It’ll take a few minutes to defrost enough to send the elevator up,"[/color][/b] she announced, prying open a square cover in the rock to reveal a keypad. ID punched in her override code, and though there wasn’t any apparent change on the surface, she could sense heating coils activating far below them.
