Rhea leaned back in her chair, a cup of cocoa sitting on the table and her own cup of tea in front of her. It was Thursday, and she had gotten up bright an early in order to prepare for the big event of the day:



Robbing a mall.



She had forwarded the location of the bakery to her associate, and now she was just waiting. Short skirt, leggings, and longsleeve shirt was all she wore, her hair was tied back, and she was starting to strategize. The location was picked because Rhea knew that neither her nor Lilith frequented it; it was out of the way, popular and had many options, but yet they could make for a hasty retreat if it was necessary. She didn't have a bag on her, but she wasn't worried; she could appropriate one on scene, which was better that way. If she brought her own, and something happened that caused her to leave it, that would be one less thing to tie into her.



The only big thing she had to worry about was her partner. Lilith she learned was eccentric and liked to cause trouble. Today would be no exception, and she was confident that even by herself Lilith could pull this off alone, but at the same time...there was a level of concern. What if she went off the deep end and focused more on stirring chaos instead of grabbing whatever merchandise she could get her hands on? She'd have to put a little faith in her; it was all she could do.

Awake at a much earlier time the normal and filled with excitement, Lilith would be getting ready to start her day. She found spending any time together with Rhea to be enjoyable but this time they had planned something special, a heist. First order of business would be to find something to wear, something inconspicuous but breathable enough for her to use her quirk without worries. Her outfit of choice would be biker shorts, a plaid skirt, a choker, and t-shirt with the words 'I love Japan' written across it as well as a light hoodie. The colors would be quiet opposite to what she usually wore as they would be a bit more vibrant than her normal dark clothing to help her blend in with the tourist in the area more. Her hair would also instead of its typical style would be put into pigtails oddly enough and once Rhea had sent her location Lilith would grab her phone and head off to meet her. It was unusual to see Lilith without her tablet, but with the nature of what they had planned it made more sense for her to travel light, no bag no extra electronics, simply her keys, her phone and a small knife just in case. The ride to the bakery was a short one as Lilith's eagerness would get the better of her leading to her moving at a quicker pace than she normally would partially being due to her intend portion of this heist. It had been so long since she had been able to freely create chaos around her and she planned on fully relishing in the opportunity to do it again. Entering into the bakery, she would scan the crowd to find Rhea before making her way over to her table and joining her in sitting down. Assuming the cocoa had been for her, she would take the cup taking a sip before sitting it back down on the table, giving Rhea a bubbly smile before speaking. "Hiya, hope you haven't been waiting too long." rhea

Rhea would have once again procured a newspaper while she waited, but thankfully the wait wasn't long as Lilith arrived. A smile crossed Rhea's face as she put the paper down, leaning forward. "I wasn't here long, darling. You look adorable, I like the air of innocence you have going.~" Rhea took a moment to glance over Lilith's person, and she was going light, too. This just solidified that they were on the same page.

"The mall is a short walk from here. It's a pretty busy day for them, so I'm sure getting a good haul will be a challenge." She tapped her nail against the table, thinking. "Any particular store there you want to visit?" It wasn't going to be too hard to keep their plans hidden from those around them, making it sound like a standard mall trip. If only they knew just how wrong that assumption was.

"This particular mall hasn't had any issues, so it should be safe, too. Which is unfortunate, because that would mean not many heroes are on patrol. It's such a shame, don't you think? Being able to see one of those?" She let out a sigh, trying her best to sound wistful; they both knew that this was a lie, but Rhea was trying her best to have her due diligence. Her strengths lay in misdirection and subterfuge, not combat. She could potentially slip away from a combatant if need be, but it was better to avoid conflict whenever possible. At least, in the event the odds weren't stacked in her favor.

Sitting down, Lilith would be met with a smile from Rhea that she would happily return. The sit of meeting Rhea with a newspaper seemed be becoming a staple of the duo. Just as she had done before as Rhea set it down Lilith would take a peek at the headlines trying to find anything of interest before turning her full attention back to Rhea as she would give a complement. Something she would usually be unfazed by but coming from Rhea it meant a bit more than normally as a faint blush would cross her face and her smile would widen. She would look down at her shirt giving it a small tug as if proud of her choice of clothing before looking back to Rhea. “I figured it would help fit in a bit better. Thanks, you look so much cuter though.” Lilith would respond, taking another sip from her drink before leaning forwards, resting her elbows on the table like a pedestal and resting her chin in her palms. It would seem that Rhea had done her own research on the area, the mall wasn’t too far away from the shop they were in which was an added bonus as the duo had managed to get there drinks a small bit of planning out of the way before they began. Rhea would speak with secrecy, hiding her true intentions from the anyone who might be trying to overhear their conversation. Although her question was as straight forward as enough to partially stump, Lilith as aside from finding a matching choker for Rhea she hadn’t put much thought into what else she was looking for. Letting out a bit of a hum she would pause for a moment before responding. “Maybe somewhere that has nice dresses. And an athletics store? Can always use more biker shorts!” She’s responded as Rhea would speak again, hiding the true intentions of what she meant. This area was considered to be much safer which meant much less activity from hero patrols. Making this not only the perfect place but also the perfect time to strike. But Lilith would play along with the act in her response and as Rhea would sigh, she would playfully giggle in response. “Yeah, it would be so cool to meet someone like Pinpoint!” Even if it was to hide their intentions, saying something like that made Lilith feel uneasy. The thought of others who actually say and mean what she had said almost seemed like an outlandish concept as who would truly want to meet the top ten oppressors of their nation. Although she had only mentioned the fifth of the top ten her mind couldn’t help but think of the rest of them, false idols, misleading the people. But it did bring a thought to mind, an idea for her own costume to add a bit of flare as well as openly mock the heroes. “Do you think the shops that sell similar things to his costume?” rhea

The headline would be a boring one. Repairs were underway after the attack of the "Roadblock" nomu some time back.

A giggle would leave her as she shrugged, picking up her cup and taking a sip. "You're only saying that because I'm showing off more leg than usual. They make for a good distraction, if I do say so myself.~" She was shamelessly flirting again, but she knew she'd have to pull back at least a little bit. She didn't want Lilith too flustered before they started. She was also happy that she had caught on to the code, and she was playing along nicely. "It wouldn't, wouldn't it? I doubt he'd be there today...you're right though, he might have some merch we could pick up!" This part went over Rhea's head, but at the end of the day it didn't matter too much. Once they got there they'd plan out what to hit, and if it was a place Lilith wanted to hit then Rhea wouldn't have any qualms about it.

She'd start to stand up, leaving the paper behind. She was more or less done with it, and didn't have an interest in the crossword puzzle. At least not right now. Maybe in the future. "It's still a little ways away, let's start heading down. Besides, gives all the guys something to look at." She winked, offering her elbow for her partner in crime. "Maybe we could also plan a little for what we're doing after. Maybe something to eat, or something like that."

The headline of the paper was the aftermath of yet another Nomu attack. Although Lilith had never crossed paths with one, she always viewed them as the perfect tool to create chaos, as the mere sight of them often pushed people to run and hide, with a few of them even managing to push some heroes to their limits. "I just have to hope I don’t get distracted too." Lilith would respond to Rhea’s comment by giving a light and short giggle in response. She would notice that Rhea’s flirtatious nature would be a bit more controlled than normal, but she wouldn’t really have much idea why. Taking another sip of her hot chocolate and letting out a sigh of contentment, she would nod, making a happy and audible hum to agree about keeping an eye out for potential merchandise. With a brief moment thought to think back, Lilith would realize that Rhea had never saw her in her full villain's attire, potentially something that she would have to change in the future; maybe even having matching outfits made. Her thoughts would have to wait, though, as Rhea would stand up. With everything planned out, it was time for them to head to their location. Standing up with her, Lilith couldn't help but grin as Rhea offered her elbow, to which she would happily oblige, hugging onto her arm as she looked up to her. Her wink didn't go unnoticed, and it was easy to tell that the duo didn't need to use their quirks to stir up trouble, but it was always an added benefit. Her final comment would be enough to change her grin into a bright smile, trying her best to hold back her excitement yet again. "Do you have something in mind you want to eat?" rhea

[rhea]

Rhea would think for a second as she walked out the door, swirling her cup of tea. "I guess it depends! Are you on the menu?" She gave Lilith a smirk, squeezing her arm a little. "Or should we explore a little and see what we can eat together?~" She couldn't help it, it was right there. And she didn't mind a night on the town with her new bestie ending with an interesting evening. It wouldn't be the first time, and she was sure it wouldn't be the last.

It would be a fifteen minute walk from the mall, and once inside she'd start to look around. There were some toy shops, lot of souvenir stores, and plenty of clothing outlets. Each one Rhea would size each and every one of them up, her thoughts wandering into how they were going to pull this off. They'd stop right in front of a hero store, pausing as she'd look in. "Well, this is one of those stores. Should we start here and continue on from here, or did you want to start elsewhere?" She felt confident she had a good layout of the place. At least, well enough. It wasn't linear in layout, but there were definite wings and themes in certain areas that would make for navigation a lot easier.

It also didn't help too much that Rhea didn't have a definite plan. She could start up an impromptu concert, but there was no telling what would happen there. She was better off using her semblance in more direct ways.

The next comment that would follow would be much more in line with what she had been accustomed to from Rhea, but even still, she couldn't help but blush as she heard it, trying her best to keep her composure. Her warm smile would be quickly replaced with a small smirk as she would feel Rhea also give her arm a small squeeze. Admittedly, some of Rhea's personality has been rubbing off on Lilith, as she would respond with an equally flirtatious response. "I'm always on the menu for you, but I wouldn't mind sharing this time." The thought of another member joining the duo again was an interesting concept, but they would have to find something that they would both find appetizing. The two were heading towards what would be their starting point, and Lilith could help but occasionally stop, pulling Rhea a bit as she would look through a few windows of some of the shops they passed. Although unintentional, her constant stopping and looking through windows would only further the belief that they were indeed tourists. Eventually the duo would find themselves outside of a hero store, and once again, she would do her best to look in through the window to see if she could find the item she was looking for without going in. With a small squint and a moment of standing on her tippy toes, she would look over to Rhea with a smile. "Here would be a good place to start. "I just need some fabric." Lilith, still hugging Rhea's arm, would head into the store. Quickly moving through the store, she would find her way to an intricate purple fabric with gold highlights. She would lift the cloth up to give it a small inspection, and the tag would claim that the fabric was incredibly durable and fit for even a hero. "Are you going to get anything?" rhea

Rhea would always stop when Lilith pulled to look at something, wishing she could muster that same enthusiasm. She was expressive in her own ways, and anything she always found interest in she made mental notes about it. Plus what she might have to do in order to obtain it. Seeing Lilith's excitement though did bring a smile to her face. It made for a good sell.

The mention of fabric got a tilt of Rhea's head, and as she was pulled staggered a little as she tried to keep up. The tag was interesting; she didn't trust it in the slightest as there was a limit to what the public could get their hands on, but Rhea wasn't about to rain on Lilith's parade. She was a firm believer if there was something that you wanted, you take it. Looking around briefly, she would see a domino mask and pick it up, pressing it against her face and smiled. "Perhaps. We should find A bag so we can have some hands free." She glanced to the side, seeing a few red and blue duffle bags with more hero branding on them across the room. "Over there. We should also start looking at stirring up a bit of trouble." A pause. "You can choose who to target, or is it more of a blanket?" This was possibly the only snag that Rhea could see in the plan. She never asked Lilith this question, and she should have learned about it sooner, but there was no sense in crying about it now.

Lilith herself wasn't too keen on what exactly could be sold to the public in terms of hero-grade material, as she had lost her interest in heroes at a young age. She always thought of the heroes as dishonest, but she would have hoped that they had some form of integrity, a hope that was misplaced. It would show a bit more of a gullible side of her, but Rhea did her best not to ruin her perception of the world around her. With a smile on her face, she would watch as Rhea would pick up a domino mask, covering her face with it for a moment before moving it away and smiling. A simple yet important item in their line of work. Rhea would gesture towards the bags after making an observational comment. It would be in their best interest to have free hands, as it would not only make Lilith's quirk much easier to use but also aid them when attempting to leave their crime scene behind. A small nod would be her response, slowly making their way over to the bags as they moved towards them. Rhea had already begun to plan a bit further ahead than Lilith, which, in all honesty, wasn't much of a surprise to her. Lilith couldn't help herself, as her slightly warped smile would show at the idea of creating chaos, even if it was just a bit. It would have to do. As they moved, her free hand would grow a lavender color, her palms gently grazing against the hands of a larger store clerk and two random customers. As the color on her hands would dissipate, the marks left by the people she had chosen would not, and with a keen eye, they could easily be spotted if someone knew what to look for. "I picked three. I can pick certain people, but it's usually more fun to blanket them." rhea

Rhea thought she saw a bit of lavender on the girl's hands but couldn't tell for sure. It was only when Lilith told her that she had marked a few on their way over that it clicked that it could be selective. "I supposed it would be easier to blanket an area...but then again there's no telling I might do." A slight blush crossed her face as she gave Lilith a knowing smirk. "Regardless, are you ready to get started?"

The blanket statement did have her a little concerned, but there was an idea starting to rattle around in her head. Unfortunately, it would be something she wouldn't be able to implement until after this current job. Get through this one first, then move on to the second. She reached for one of the bags, picking up the red one and dropping her domino mask in it. In one swift motion she'd rip the tag off and let it flutter under a shelf, turning to talk with the marked clerk from earlier. "Excuse me, sir?" She was slowly getting into the proper pitch, indicating the bag as she held it up. "This doesn't seem to have a tag, could you be a dear and tell me how much it is?~"

A small comment and blush were enough to make Lilith want to postpone their current plans to see what would happen, although she was quite certain of how it would turn out. A slight blush would also cross her face as she turned her attention to the shoppers. With her targets chosen, we were ready to proceed, nodding to answer her question. Reaching out, she would pull a backpack from the shelves, similar to the one Rhea had chosen but in blue, something that would fit a bit better with her choice of outfit. With Rhea talking to the store clerk, Lilith would take the chance to quickly remove the tag, throwing it into someone’s bag as they passed by. Her eyes would follow one of the marked shoppers as they moved around the store until the perfect moment. Stepping back, she would move in front of him as he walked carelessly while talking. Bumping into her, Lilith would stumble forward before tripping, just managing to catch herself and, of course, stow the fabric she had picked out into the backpack. The shopper would offer his hand to help her up, which she would take, using it as yet another chance to apply a bit more of her pheromone. Taking a hold of his hand as he pulled her up, she would smile. Lilith would swing the bag over her shoulder as she brushed herself off before turning her attention back to him. "Thank you for helping me up. You know, you’re pretty strong." A small smirk would creep its way to the lavender marks she had left behind on both the store clerk and the shopper, which would begin to glow a dull lavender color. "I don’t think you’d be able to pick up that display table, though." Giving a backhanded compliment with a clear objective. The shopper would raise a brow, slightly annoyed, as he would quickly turn, his body seemingly increasing in size as he would grab the display table, covering in clothing and memorabilia to hang it over his head. This simple act alone would be enough to quickly draw attention to the shopper as she stepped back. a satisfied grin appearing across his face. rhea

The clerk gave Rhea a thoughtful expression as he started to look over the bag. "Ah, the tag seems to be missing on this! Let me go over and check on the price," he says, turning to go look at the spot where Lilith and Rhea originally got the bags.

Except as he started his way over he saw the sudden expansion of one of the guests, picking up a table and spilling merchandise everywhere with the intent of smashing through one of his precious cases. "Wh- Sir! Sir, stop, I'm going to have to ask you to put that down! Sir- I will call security in here if you don't cease this at once!" This was a good distraction, and let Rhea slip back to where the materials were. She had no use for much in this store, but the domino masks could prove handy. Putting the back around her, she'd grab a stack and slip them in; she could potentially modify them later in the event she wanted or needed to do something much more fanciful. And while she was here, she'd grab a small amount of the material Lilith was looking at; she was normally accustomed to stealing small things, and normally in small bundles at a time, but considering she was working together with someone she might as well assist in some way. Besides, there were other stores.

She'd slip around and identifying another one of Lilith's marked targets she put on a face, reaching out and adjusting her pitch to say, "Help! Go get help! It's a villain attack!" Hopefully this person, in conjuction with the pheromons, would help start a controlled panic that would let her and Lilith slip out the door to their next target.

Lilith now stood still, looking up as the shopper held the table firmly above his head. In terms of strength, it was quite the feat, something that she knew she wouldn’t ever be likely to do without an assistant, but with a quirk like hers, she could always find someone else to do it for her. Her eyes would make their way to Rhea as the store clerk would finally take notice, rushing over in an attempt to get him to put the display down. With the clerk stepping in in the attempt to get the shopper to put the table down, Lilith’s smile would widen; given she had challenged his strength and he was told to stop his display of it, things would only further escalate. Just as expected, the hulking shopper would look down at the clerk, infuriated that he would ask him to stop his showing of strength, and instead of placing the table down, he would throw it at a neighboring wall, breaking not only the display table but also destroying the things that had been hanging on the wall. Lilith’s smile would only widen as she would once again look for Rhea, who had positioned herself next to the other marked shopper. The mark on the shopper's arm would begin to glow just as Rhea would speak. With the commotion already happening and Rhea’s input, a quickened panic would take over the shoppers faces as they would echo her words. "It’s a villain! Everyone, run!" They would as they began to push their way to the exit. This would be enough for the other shoppers to also enter a panic, with the majority of shoppers exiting the store in a panicked rush as the few others attempted to distract the hulking, table-throwing shopper. In the shuffle of people, Lilith would quickly make her way to Rhea, grabbing a hold of her hand as a satisfied grin was plastered across her face as the duo would also exit the store. She had caused a bit of chaos here, but it was unusual for her to stop relishing in it a lot longer than she had. Perhaps she was worried about Rhea’s safety, or maybe it was the thought of spreading chaos to other places as well that helped center her lust. The likeliest answer was that it was simply a bit of both. rhea

An act had to be put on, and as Lilith made her way over and everyone started running to the hills she'd grip onto Lilith's, turning to run out the door with her partner in crime. It had to be convincing enough that neither of them were the cause of calamity, and the chaos that erupted within did get a lot of attention from other shoppers. People would mill towards the chaos to get a better look, away from it as a sign of intelligence, and the two of them? Well, Rhea would pull them into another store roughly three down from the pandemonium, where people would be just far enough away that the people didn't know what all the fuss was about. "How do you find all the big burly men?" She breathed into Lilith's ear as she put her arm around her, giving the woman a squeeze.

Where they ended up would be one of the higher-end dress stores with all kinds of arts and styles. "We should probably act quickly," she says, glancing about to get a lay of the land. "Best to try and get things to snowball, cover up the real crime going on. Well, second real crime, the first being how sexy you look causing all this chaos.~"
