So What do you Think?

[Serie Fond]

Serie fumbled with the zipper of her bodysuit trying to suck her midsection in enough so she could finish putting on her new armor. The thigh high boots were what she thought would be the hardest part, but it turned out that she had may be gained a pound or two since she was measured for the body suit. After one final big intake of air she finally compressed her stomach in enough to fasten the bodysuit. She sighed a bit in relief, but then quickly stopped before she caused it to unfasten again.

She put the cowl on and studied herself in the mirror for a few minutes. Adjusting her cleavage for about two of those minutes so it looked perfect. When she finally felt as though it was all finally in order she decided to sneak into the cargo hold and turn the lights off, then call Vincent down to see what he thought.

She quickly opened the door and looked around to make sure he wasn't there, careful not to bang the large blades attached to the gloves on her arms against anything, and made her way down the ladder to the cargo hold. Turning the switch for the lights off she then made a quick telepathic message to Vincent either outside or up in the cockpit or in his room.

You want to come to the cargo hold? I think I need your opinion on something.

@One For Sorrow

 

[Vincent Cross]

Vincent was doing some maintenance under one of the consoles in the cockpit when Serie's message drifted into his mind, he had been so intent on the task at hand that her voice suddenly popping into his thoughts made him jump -his helmet making a loud metal clang on the bottom of the console he was working on-. "D4,sst Finish up here will ya?sst" he asked the droid as he got up and cleaned a bit of grease off his hands before slipping his black armored gloves back on. He headed down the hall, curious what his dear friend had to show him. She sounded excited, which either meant very good things for him or they were about to go do something that some people would consider irresponsible. Possibly both.

He descended the ladder and entered the pitch black hold. Why In the kriff are the lights off?" he thought to himself.

"You playin' some kinda trick on me Serie?sst" he asked confusedly as he fumbled for the light switch. One a these days I'll get round ta installin' those motion sensors. he thought as his hand finally reached the switch.

He powered the lights on and looked around, almost jumping as he saw Serie -having not been expecting this new outfit- his jaw dropped -though she wouldn't be able to see that under his helmet- and his eyes widened. His faceplate was open and he made damned sure to move slowly enough that she could tell he was looking at her, his eyes lingered momentarily in some of the places that she usually kept covered. Then he looked at her face -though under the shadows cast by the cowl he could not see much of it- and his grin reached his eyes. "Looks damn good.sst" he said, assuming that was what she wanted an opinion on.

 

[Serie Fond]

Serie stood waiting for what felt like forever, although it's probably only been about thirty seconds. She was just antsy to see what he would say and she bit her lip nervously as she waited in the cargo hold. Then the lights came on and Vincent was in front of her, she didn't need to use the force to know that under his mask he was gawking like a teenager.

She tilted her head to the side slightly as he studied her figure. She could tell he was really checking her out. She guessed she was just going to have to get used to that given the fact that the armor she made was made with some seductive potential behind it. She knew that males got distracted pretty easily due to that sort of thing and she figured that helping that along wouldn't hurt in a combat situation.

Damn good huh? I feel like you're more looking at the aesthetics than the actual armor itself. Check it out, I had it custom made by the Empire ya know?

 

[Vincent Cross]

Vincent blushed a little as Serie called him out on admiring her figure. "I was gettin' to it.sst" he said in a slightly embarrassed tone.

Stepping in close he took a look at the armor itself, removing a glove to feel the fabric of her bodice. "Armor weave?sst Nice touch.sst" he then quickly pulled his hand back as he realized where it was, muttering a half assed apology.

He then turned his attention to the wicked looking blades attatched to her gloves. "Wanna give those a test?sst"

While he was enjoying the aesthetics of the armor Vincent WAS curious how Serie would fight with those blades.

 

[Serie Fond]

Serie rolled her eyes as Vincent's hand wandered alittle too far. Again she figured he couldn't help it, plus he quickly apologized after anyways so she wasn't going to hold it against him.

Yeah, I figured it was the best way to go. The hood is made from it too, and the boots. Really gives that Sith feel right? I feel like I was sorely lacking that.

Then he commented on her gloves and she was more than eager to test them out. She hadn't even used them on training dummies yet, so this would be an excellent test of her skills in adaptability. She nodded and smiled at him as she allowed the retreated blades to go out to their full leagth. With her cowl still up she figured now she looked like some mistress of death or something else corny like that.

Alright, let's give them a go. Take it slow at first I still have to get used to these things. She said with a stifled laugh and held the two arm blades up so they both were pointing at him, one high by her head, the other low by her hip. She figured it's work for now at least, till she perhaps found a better opening stance with them.

 

[Vincent Cross]

Vincent chuckled at Series request to go easy on her. "I have a feeling yer about ta whoop me good.sst" he joked, putting his glove back on before calling his saber to his hand and activating it. The crimson blade bursting to life as he took his standard Makashi stance.

"Ready when you are.sst" he said, giving her thebstandard 'come at me' gesture with his left hand.

 

[Serie Fond]

Serie smiled at him, then she took the offensive. Not something she was used to doing either, but her choice in weapons did somewhat lead itself to a more aggressive style of combat. She decided that shed just make things up as she went and see where it got her, this being her first time actually using the things afterall. She stepped in quickly towards him till she was in range and then attacked high with her left blade, swiping at his head.

With her other arm she did a quick stabbing motion towards him sternum, followed by a quick swipe at his torso with the same blade, simply continuing the thrust off to the side. At any point if she felt like one of the blades might actually hit a part of his skin she would stop, but with his armor on he could take a few whacks from the blades she figured, grinning mischeviously at him.

 

[Vincent Cross]

Vincent smirked under his helmet and closed the faceplate as Serie came at. This, was going to be fun.

He ducked the first strike at his head, but the second strike hit him in the head and caused a few sparks to fly as it scraped along. When she changed direction with the blade that was now against his head Vincent allowed the pressure to push him as he rolled to the Side.

Coming up to his knees out of his roll he turned and swung his saber at the curve of her lower back, with the armor weave he knew a couple quick hits of his saber wouldn't hurt her -though they would be hot- however if he felt the hot plasma would touch her skin he would immediately deactivate the weapon.

 

[Serie Fond]

Serie didn't expect that she would have been that successful with her first strike. She was quickly realising the attack potential with these weapons. So she decided to keep it going, but unfortunately Vincent recovered from the attack quickly and brought his lightsaber around towards the small of her back.

She did a quick hand spring to avoid the attack, but not being used to the armor, she was slower than she was used to, Vincent's lightsaber just barely missing her back and legs as she executed the back hand spring. She was slowly making mental notes of all these things even as she did them.

She brought both the blades up in an x in front of her body, deciding to take a defensive posture now and see how that went. She did a quick lean back with her head to tell him it was his turn again. Also she wanted for him to perhaps point out anything he might have seen wrong with her technique if he did indeed see anything. This was supposed to be a learning experience for both of them. For her to train with the weapons, and for him to train against them.

 

[Vincent Cross]

"Kriff you're quick with those.sst" Vimcent cursed as Serie took her defensive stance. Her on the defensive was what he was used to, though not with these weapons.

He rushed her in his usual manner and thrust his blade towards her abdomen, right under her blades.

He was moving quick but would not put enough force or hold his blade there long enough to penetrate her armor.
