Whew!

"Oh, Piper? Yeah. Those two make a great team." Distracted, looking over at the Hot Topic entrance.

An undertone May & Lupe can hear, not one to carry far. "That is Symon's girlfriend."

The pretty clurichaun has several bags with her, the Bergen mall isn't that fancy, but it does have an Ulta and a couple boutiques that have logos splayed on the bags. Girl got taste! Or at least, cash.

"Huh" Lupe says looking and checks for the Wyrm

Symon has some darker energy lurking about him, but nothing... wyrmy.

"mm" Lupe says "We cool to her or do we hate her guts?"

"Or pretend to be cool but privately hate her guts when it's just us?" May offers

Her mouth twists up in a lopsided knot, unhappy.

"He likes her a lot."

Piper has no clue, but she shifts into a bit of a tribute to Sinead O'Connor... this one sung towards the Corsairy Troll who watches from the sidelines.

On 4th & vine
I'm gonna marry my love
And we'll be happy for all time
We're gonna have six children
And enough love for them
That they'll be happy all the time
I won't believe me luck, they're mine
They'll sing all day
They'll sing all night
Because their mama and their pa
A-love them so right!

'Siv blushes at the song

"Right.. but while Symon's cool. I'm more concerned for you. So May's right... you don't like her? She's a bitch. We got your back" Lupe declares

"We've resented other women for less" May assures

Cairrean has drifted off in the meantime, leaving the crowd. Presumably joined by Symon.

Jonas pushes Siv towards the band... mouthing 'we're busted anyway'

And Siv grins and then, knowing she can't compete for main singer, adds her own lovely back up

"He deserves a girlfriend if he wants one, though."

"I thought he was Ace?" Lupe says

"Aces can disdain sex but still want romance" May says

"But that's not the same as being Aro, I guess."

"oh" A mmmph

From Lupe

May puts arms about Sam "Hey... you don't have to like everyone a friend likes. Remember how we disagree about One Direction?"

"Oh lord, you and boy bands..."

Huff. "And I'm not his girlfriend, and I don't want to be his girlfriend, like, girlfriend."

"Some of them are upbeat and they have good vocals" A look to Lupe "Right?"

"ugh.. sorry May. I'm with Sam on this one."

"Munedo poster on your wall?" May reminds

"Low blow. Cheap shot. That's a latina obligation" May says

Snort.

"I... don't know if she likes him enough."

"See, that's a problem" Lupe says "You can love someone and still be used by them"

"Don't I know it."

"Yeah, it's supposed to be two ways" May says "When Jimmy and I were dating, he always made me feel appreciated. I think he still has a bit of a crush on me, but It wouldn't be fair of me to pretend I feel the same way. It's upposed to be ...oh yeah, you would know"

"He deserves someone that will treat him right."

Sigh.

"Yeah. I don't know if it would be better or worse if I liked him that way."

"Hey" Lupe says "Whoever WE each fall for? Is going to be damned lucky if they're smart enough to love us back. We're all damned gorgeous, strong, and on the ball. "

"Mmph." A faint frown.

"I had a boyfriend at college for about two weeks" May blurts

"You did?"

"Yeah.. I.. didn't put that in the leters" BLUSh

"Why only two weeks?"

A sigh "he dumped me after he got in my pants"

"I want his name, contact info, address... " Lupe immediately says

"Boooo."

"What an asshole."

"He was an asshole... and moved onto the next girl after he got me" A loopk to Lupe "This is why I didn't mention him in the letters. Lupe, repeat after me, Murder is wrong"
