Continuation from here: [ X ]Tulip Waterfield “W-what ze fuk?!” Noxa declared as the hybrid had flown away, looking about in utter confusion as something had been blurted out with Noxa’s name embedded into it, before this source had made its exit. The scarlet vixen had been sleeping — naturally, she wasn’t able to catch what was blurted out completely, but could only assume that this was nothing more than some kind of ‘funny’ prank meant to scare her out of her slumber. The woman’s carapace-covered right fist tightened up into a ball and shook up at the hybrid that grew away, “DAMN KIDS!”
In three day’s time, the stand was no longer there — the only sign it had even existed was a tree stump that had previously been Noxa’s chair. However, that wasn’t to say that it was all over for the Hybrid’s dreams. After all, while the entirety of the stand and Noxa force advertising had completely ceased, but the gargantuan power level could still be felt — well, sometimes; occasionally it would vanish completely, or vastly diminish. However, sometimes it would blossom to its full size, and rarely it would grow even larger. It was clear that that ‘Noxa’ woman Tulip had met earlier was one very active player in the galactic checkerboard.
Noxa, in fact, had already finished recruiting N-Forces — color coded them, even. However, she was still on Earth. At present time, she could be found in her shop within Satan City. It was a rundown building smack between two much larger structures. This building was only two stories and made out of pure cement. It clearly needed a new lick of paint, but it was obvious that this was a bustling location, despite it being placed in an out of the way alley. There were a handful of alien men and women outside, discussing something feverishly, while a small line led up into the shop.
If Tulip had honed her ability to sense ki a little more it wouldn’t have been too hard to sense that the ki signature she was searching for had been located at the second floor, in a window near the northwest side of the structure.
To anyone without a clock it would have been hard to distinguish what time of the day it was; it had been extremely cold — more so than any other day this year. Heavy clouds sat overhead, dark enough to filter out day light and leave the world in a rather dark, slightly blue hue. There was the promise of a long blizzard, something that had canceled jobs and schools within Satan City. While Noxa could stand it, she wasn’t a big fan of the cold. Naturally, she allowed Mr. Floofs and her Collar Bot to manage the shop below — both near immune and indifferent to the lack of heating found in the first floor, which used to be a garage. Floofs had his fur, the C.B. was a robot.
Still, it wasn’t anything that Noxa really cared about — most of the people lined up today had wanted one of a list of things:
•Pay Noxa for scandalous actions.
•Ask for an autograph in regards to the adult manga made after he, ‘Dirty Deeds Done So Sweet’, which apparently had recently been a big hit, sending Noxa’s business partner — and artist — into the limelight. She hoped Dirty Dan was enjoying her time and fortune… Especially since Noxa got such a hefty cut from the latter and on very rare occasions the former.
•Request Noxa autographs or pictures with the woman who had been the reason Emperor Abzerute was killed. This much was rather common knowledge at this point, with Noxa having literally set up shop advertising en masse in the Arcosian Capital.
The rest of the requests for hiring Noxa and Co. ranged from shoveling sidewalk to acting as bodyguards for different occasions. It was nothing Noxa wanted to be down there for — the first three being jobs she only handled every so often. After all, constantly carrying them out would devalue them!
From that northwestern window, steam billowed from the heat of the bathroom. In that room, Noxa sat in the bathtub, allowing for the heat of the bubble bath to seep into her skin, while she held one of her own manga up from the water with one hand, reading through the special thanks, column. Her eyes finally met on ‘Noxa’ and a smile spread over the woman’s lips. She sunk lowered into the water so that the bubbles grazed her chin. It was always nice to see her name there.
The woman’s tongue danced against a lemon-flavored lollipop she had been sucking on for the past half an hour. It was almost out — and she was sure she didn’t have any more in her hair. Once that had been drained of flavor Noxa would have to exit the bath; she wasn’t looking forward to that part.
The woman sighed, tossing the adult manga off into the bathroom and crossed her arms behind her head, simply waiting out the day’s woes.
Relaxing, without a thing in the world to bother her.

The young hybrid tried to pull her red jacket closer to her thin frame. Standing in line for longer than two hours had left the woman almost frozen, miserably struggling to not die of hypothermia. She looked at the line in front of her, growling in irritation as the aliens stood around unfazed by the abominable temperatures. The bamboo forest to the south was far warmer than this dark corner of Satan City.
Tulip had been tempted to cut in line, until she watched a dirty looking alien get vaporized by the huge dog that had been at that stand three days prior. Immediately scratching that from the list of possible approaches, the woman stood there trying not to freeze in the arctic temperatures. She suddenly sensed it, the powerful, seductive strength of the woman she sought to make her leader. The training would be so excruciatingly painful...which is why it’s so good. No pain, no gain! A lop-sided grin crossed the woman’s face, the bone-numbing cold forgotten in her own excitement. An alien slammed into her back, almost knocking the woman over. As she fell forwards, her hand drifted backwards. As the alien turned to yell at the woman, he found himself facing a dozen hovering blades of various makes. The alien didn’t speak, growling in irritation as the woman firmly planted her feet and rose to standing, holding the hand out towards the huge alien. With a flick of her fingers, the blades dispersed. The talking among the aliens had ceased, as everyone’s attention fell on the hybrid and alien.
“Whoops, slipped there. My bad~!” The woman knocked herself gently on the head while sticking her tongue out, then she grinned and laughed. The alien grumbled under his breath before turning away. The other aliens returned to their casual conversations. Sighing softly, the woman’s gaze went to the second floor.
Eyeing a window that was cracked open slightly with some heat coming from it, the young woman closed her eyes and focused her inner sight. She could picture the entire building and those standing around her, their ki showing up as a flame in her sight. The small flames all around her didn’t interest the woman, as her gaze went into the building. The dog was radiating brightly, dwarfing her own burning flame. Traveling upstairs, she saw the power she sought. A burning inferno, sitting in the center of a room. Ah, Noxa is meditating! What a noble pursuit, doing such a calming thing when possessing such a great strength
Nodding firmly, the woman’s gaze reopened and locked onto the window. Releasing her ki, she flew upwards and hovered outside the window. Steam billowed from the window, startling the woman. Was this created from her intense focus, sweat and energy mixing to create such a thick steam? The woman started to smell the steam, before realizing that was an incredibly weird action and would probably gain her strange looks from the audience below. Lifting the window open, she maneuvered her body into the room before dropping to the floor as the window slammed shut.
The room was full of steam, obscuring the woman’s sight. But, she didn’t need to see in order to know where the powerful woman she was aiming to serve reclined. Slowly stepping forward into the steam, Tulip went slowly to one knee, bowing her head. Raising one hand high, the woman summoned a huge sword of strange make. It made a rectangle three quarters of the way down the blade, then one of the sides veered towards the other, creating a triangular tip. Only one side and the triangular edge was sharpened to a razor fine edge, while the longest edge was flat. The side of the blade were completely flat, and the length of the blade was almost longer than the woman was tall. Spinning the blade around, the woman rested the flat edge of the blade on her back and knelt with her palm against the ground. Her gaze fell to the ground, as she tried to ignore it as the overwhelming strength, steam, and her own fast breathing made her feel faint. The young hybrid began speaking firmly but in a rushed tone, as her heartbeat increased.
“Noxa, I have come three days later, as your flier stated. If I gained your interest and favor, I’d fight for...your cause...and the Ac-crosian Emp-” Her vision starting to swirl, the woman crashed face first onto the ground, her blade dispersing into silver ki. She began gasping, as the sudden shift in temperature and the pressure Tulip put on herself was making the woman hyperventilate. Finally catching her breath, the woman reached out, grabbing the edge of the tub. Looking up at Noxa, the woman whispered. “I just want to fight with you and become stronger through your ways, Commander.”
Hand sliding off the tub, Tulip fell back, realizing inside she had doubtless failed the tryouts with her sudden, strange outburst.

Noxa hadn’t completely grasped this concept just yet. The pictures that Pocky sent her in the bath often were of both good quality and very titillating - they always caused Noxa to blush and lose focus in whatever she was doing at the time. It was for this reason that the red haired bio android was flicking about with the Collar Bot and its camera; no matter which way she turned, or what angle she attempted to create the image in… It just looked boring. It when without mention theta if Noxa was about to send bubble bath pictures that ‘boring’ was the very last adjective she wanted to apply to them.
She had been at this for quite some time, and it seemed that it wasn't about to go anywhere. It was then that Noxa found herself detecting a slight bump in ki signature; it was something just below her - it felt like Mr. Floofs attacking someone. It caused Noxa to stop fidgeting with the heart shaped bot for a moment and sit in silence, attempting to detect and see if anything was off. Thankfully, it seemed that whatever had caused him to bark with so much ki was a one time occurrence, which meant that Noxa got more time with a camera and her bubble bath.
The woman sainted through about a few dozen images she had taken over the last hour. None of them seemed to fit the profile she needed; something seemed… missing. She couldn't really tell what kind of quality Pocky’s images had that Noxa’s didn't. A few more shots were taken, and with every shot, Noxa grew more and more unhappy with the result, to the point where she was growing irritated.
For better or worse, just as the woman's hair began to writhe and the desire to break something began to spike another sudden influx of ki shot up. This one wasn't as noticeable as Mr. Floofs’, but it was certainly not negligible.more importantly still, it was a signature that Noxa had not yet felt. Over the span of silence and lack of activity that followed the virago’s temper that begun to quell just enough to keep her from breaking her porcelains tub - or something along those lines that she would likely come to regret.
Just as the woman was about to continue her private photoshops, that ki signature from earlier decided to barge through her window and into the bathroom. With a rather even expression, the bio android watched as whoever had burst through her window went on a tirade about what they were doing there. Apparently, she had learned about Noxa through the advertising campaign that Noxa carried out…
It seemed that all the zeni the scarlet-haired Amazon had blew hadn't gone to waste… which was a weight lighted from her shoulders... Or, it would have if Noxa hadn't already met the goal of enlistees she was hoping to meet.
Still, this hybrid at the floor of her bathroom at least seemed a bit more enthusiastic to join than the rest of the applicants. Of course, Noxa would likely have to evaluate hear too - it would be a shame to squander potential … Especially when the potential literally climbs through your window while you're taking a bath, and.
Despite the near fainting status of the hybrid. Noxa's lips began to part into a long smile, which quickly grew into a full blown grin.
“Ohohohoho…” The woman chuckled, feeling incredibly giddily at he brilliant idea that had just blossomed into her mind. This was perfect! This was exactly what Noxa needed to take the perfect picture! Noxa needed another person to make the great, enticing photo that she needed to send Pocky!
Long scarlet tendrils moved from both the bubbles of her bath and the wet, messy nest of Scarlett. The warped around the hybrids’ body an brought her into the tub. Tulip would soon feel against her the hard, ridged lines of Noxa's armor.
Yes, beneath all the bubbles Noxa was fully geared.
“Yeah, yeah.” The woman dismissed the hybrid completely initially, “Help me out here real quick. I need to take a good picture for my friend.” Noxa's arm came around Tulip’s shoulders, while Noxa's hair moved to gather more foam and cover Tulip’s clothes and jacket completely.
“Look at the camera -- the floating robot -- and give me a smile - do something cute or cool!” With that set of instructions, Noxa rose her gauntlet clad right hand and made a ‘V’ shape with her index and middle fingers, puckering her lips and makings kiss trace to the floating camera.
Several snapshots would follow suit, the eccentric woman's position and expression changing between every flash. She hoped that Tulip was both photogenic and good at keeping up with changing circumstances.
If this photo shoot proved to be as good as Noxa hoped then surely it would help Pocky would forgive her over the Gizard Wasteland debacle of a few weeks ago. The redhead still didn't think that she was in the wrong when it came to an argument they had, with Noxa's Majin friend claiming that Noxa had lied to her about spending time and bonding, while Noxa firmly believed that the both of them had done just that through the long, arduous date.

Tulip’s eyes widened as the woman began laughing. Her gaze shot to the red-haired woman, trying to read the tone of the laugh. Am I good? Was that a rejection? I do- Her thoughts were cut off as scarlet tendrils stretched from within the bath, wrapping around the woman’s body. The tendrils were warm, tight, and stronger than the woman’s ability to resist. Though, in honesty the woman didn’t try as hard as possible when grabbed. The tightness was nice, though; slightly too tight to be comfortable, but that was a thrill in itself. She felt her body get picked up and pulled into the tub next to the woman.
“My cl-” Tulip’s words died in her throat as the woman felt the rigid edges of Noxa’s armor on her side. She’s still in her armor? Bathing? What? Confusion filled the woman, as Noxa wrapped her arm around Tulip’s shoulder and the woman’s hair pulled foam aroud Tulip’s form.
“Yeah, yeah. Help me out here real quick. I need to take a good picture for my friend. Look at the camera -- the floating robot -- and give me a smile. Do something cute or cool!”
Finished talking, the large woman raised her gauntlet from the water and flashed a victory sign. She puckered her lips towards the camera, making a kissing face.
Tulip was confused, shocked, and extremely embarrassed by the whole ordeal. The woman faced the camera, trying to pull her wet jacket off her body and get it out of the picture. When the first picture snapped, Tulip’s eyes were looking away, a slight blush on her cheeks as her jacket slid off her shoulders and the strap of her tanktop slid off one shoulder. Her wet jacket fell to the ground, as the young hybrid leaned against Noxa’s hard, warm armor and smiled confusedly at the camera, blush still on her cheeks. A few pictures later, Tulip had managed to remove most of the wet clothes, sans the bandages on her chest and the shorts she wore under her pants. Leaning back in the tub, the young hybrid looked sideways at the woman and muttered softly.
“Are those photos part of the merchandising thing? Or for a friend of yours?”

Pocky lowered her fist, panting to herself as she finished some training. She still had her home perched in the bamboo forest, where she trained day and night. However when her phone vibrated she lowered her arms, before lifting the phone. She flipped it open and blinked lightly. She had received how many messages from Noxa? She frowned as she scrowled through them, noting the various messages before she stopped at the latest.
It was a picture of Noxa and Tulip. Together. In a bathtub. The Majin frowned and quickly typed something up on the phone before sending it away to Noxa. The message as a simple "Call me now. You better have some context for me."
When and if Noxa Called Pocky would answer. "When did you get back to earth? And when were you going to tell me? I've been trying to get in contact with you for like two weeks." She crossed her arms. "You missed a special episode of Gogo. No spoilers but Your favorite character got his butt kicked pretty hard."
Thanks to the video screen that both phones had she would be able to see Tulip as well, her frown deepening. "And why are you with her?" She asked. "You know she and I fought once. SHe charged up a move and it forced me to regenerate." Pocky got a devious grin. " You should challenge her to a fight."

OOC: Took a while, but I reached here. Between waiting on Pocky, getting into a DE, and Christmas rolling around I'm sure the waiting was killer.
“Monetizing?” Noxa wondered, narrowing her eyes, turning towards the hybrid and raising an eyebrow — her curiosity peaked. “Who would want to pay for images of two women in a bath?”
Was that the reason Pocky often sent her those images? Was Noxa supposed to pay for them? Was the bionic woman's tab growing with every late-night session of Pocky’s progressively less-clothed shots?
Questions she would need to have answered soon, for the sake of her bank account — or, rather, Dirty Dan’s.
Nonetheless, the brief moment of confusion was swiftly interrupted by Pocky demanding to have her call returned. There was a distinct sinking feeling in the woman’s stomach as she realized the limber Majin was probably requesting a call to collect her payment! A string of curses swarmed from Noxa’s breath as she decided to do as requested, connecting yonder to the Majin’s phone and completing the most reluctant holo-call of her life — and by this point, she had been contacted by an amorphous blob controlling a shadow organization!
While Noxa stammered, choking out fragments of words in an attempt to answer Pocky’s questions it wouldn’t be until the caramel Majin had finished speaking that she would go on to get an answer.
Or, rather, several.
A moment of silence took place while the Bio Warrior attempted to get her story set straight. “Okay — first of all, I was away on a ‘business’ trip — and you would’ve felt my ki from where I was, which was Arcose — which is beautiful this time of the year, thank you for asking — all the way here on Earth if you had spent time focusing on your energy training like I suggested you did. You’re not going to get any better training with your fists and doing those weird, slow movements katanas--”
“Program: Auto Correct: Katas*” Chimed in the feminine AI of her Collar Bot, interrupting Noxa in the most helpful and welcome of ways.
“Yeah, that — katas. Yeah, they’re fancy and look cool, but you need lots of power to get things done, don't cha know? Speaking of which — I killed the Emperor of Arcose now!” she said, “And he made me a Princess… And I took over the elite force of his military and learned a lot of cool tricks — which leads me to my next point: Bullshit! Jio wouldn’t have gotten his butt kicked, ever!”
Noxa found herself explaining, inching towards the edge of the bathtub while the droid inched away, trying to keep enough of a distance to keep the hologram transmission intact. Soon the scarlet-haired woman was holding on the the edge of the tub, ready to crawl out as she continued rambling.
“THAT GOTARO KUGO CHARACTER IS A JACKASS!” Noxa exclaimed, “JIO CAN STOP TIME; HE IS INVINCIBLE — I WOULD KNOW; I CAN STOP TIME TOO NOW!”
A lungful of air was taken; the woman’s ki began to flow faster and faster within the redhead. This, in turn, caused time to come to an immediate half for the rest of the cosmos.
Sadly, Noxa did nothing in her world of stopped time — not even moved. By the time her restraint on the universal constant was over it simply looked like she had held her breath for a fraction of a moment, and was now doubled over the tub with her exposed butt in the air, painting and out of breath.
This would last a prolonged moment before the eccentric idiot gathered herself, moving up and sitting at the edge of the tub, elbows to her thighs as she caught up on her breathing.
“Y-your lying aside… What else did you say? Oh, right. I don’t know —” Noxa looked over to Tulip, “Why were you…?”
The Bio Android snapped her fingers, turning quickly over to the floating camera as her features widened, “That’s right! She came here because she wanted to apply to the Elite Military unit I conquered! It WAS called the Friion Force, but now it’s called the NOXA Force!”
A toothy grin spread across her lips as the woman’s chest jutted out just a tad with a swelling sense of pride, which slowly vanished as she resumed her tirade:
“As for asking her to a fight… I dunno, she doesn’t seem like she’d be super strong — I don’t know what that would accomplish… After all, I’m not really looking for talent here, just potential, loyalty, and the right personalities…” Noxa’s jaw dropped, “POCKY! JOIN MY NOXA FORCE! YOU CAN BE N-FORCER BUBBLEGUM!”

As Noxa spoke and turned towards Tulip, the hybrid sunk down further into the tub to escape the cold air above. When the woman voiced her question with a raise of her eyebrow, curiosity in her voice, the young hybrid shifted sideways so she could face the woman.
“Old men, perverts, and special interest cases normally. Friends generally use it for sexual favors.” With that answer, the hybrid leaned against the edge of the tub and tried to ignore the suds she was surrounded by. The water was warm enough, and Noxa’s hair was soft in the water, though there was a huge amount of the matter. The young hybrid leaned back, enjoying the feel of Noxa’s armor on her back before glancing up as the woman nervously answered a call.
After hearing Noxa’s long spiel, Tulip finally turned far enough to one side to see the figure the woman was talking to. A sudden, mental click fell into place, as the young hybrid identified the majin in the hologram. Why is she there?! Noxa began getting more excited in tone and volume, shifting in the tub and pushing Tulip behind her as the woman rose in the tub to cling to the far edge while leaning forward. Tulip felt Noxa’s ki suddenly surge...and then the woman fell forward, gasping for breath. Wait...she can stop time?!
The young hybrid sat there, trying to figure out in her head how such a technique was possible. Her thinking was interrupted when Noxa glanced back at her. Then the Bioandroid began explaining to Pocky about the Noxa Force. A toothy grin crossed her face, as pride filled her stance. Tulip honestly hoped the two could spar in the far future, but that wouldn’t be any time soon. When the woman suddenly shouted that Pocky should join the Noxa Force, Tulip frowned and leaned over the backside of the tub.
“So, my being here was a waste of our time? I’ll grab my clothes and leave if you aren’t taking any more applicants, Noxa. Wouldn’t want to waste the time of someone as strong as you.” Rising out of the water, Tulip began adjusting her bandages and sighed in irritation as she realized the cotton cloth wasn’t going to be drying any time soon. Glancing at Noxa, the woman sunk back into the hot water and looked around the room. “Are there towels somewhere? Everything I own is wet, and I’d like to cover up before I take everything off.”
A note of embarrassment filled the woman’s voice, as she looked down into the bubbles covering the surface of the tub. She hadn’t anticipated getting pulled into the tub, and it was too cold outside to go out wet. And the flight towards the warmer lands of the south would be nigh fatal.

Pocky listened to Noxa's explaination and blinked. " Oh you wen to Namek? I've been curious about that planet. I heard its really peaceful. I actually plan to go there on vacation after I finish the training I have planned here on earth." She offered a smile. "Maybe you can take me some time for a date~"
When she spoke about killing the emperor of Arcose she blinked and tilted her head. "The what of what?" She shut her eyes as she thought. " I don't know what that is but good for you I guess?"
When the conversation turned to that of GoGo she frowned at Noxa's shouting, deciding to shout back. "JIO IS BROKEN AND DUMB! GOTARO BROKE HIS ARMS AND BEAT HIM FAIR AND SQUARE WITHOUT CHEAP TRICKS!" The Time stop went COMPLETELY unnoticed. Mostly because she stopped time and there was no way Pocky could of realized it.
She huffed and looked away from the screen. "I didn't lie! Its true!" At the mention of the Noxa Force she blinked and looked back at the screen. "So... its a cosplaying group then?" She asked. "I mean... I dunno if I could pull off any characters well. There is still kind of a stigma about majins in movies and stuff."
She rubbed the back of her head. "Maybe if I was a bit chubbier I could pull off a character but I'm just kinda me."
