((Holodeck 3, Deck 3 USS Artemis))
The vibe in the holodeck shifted. From something more flirtatious and carefree to something more controlled yet still fun. Charlotte thanked The Four that she and Natasha both seemed to be able to move on relatively unscathed from their almost moment.
It was something different for Charlotte. Giving into her wants had always been an easy thing. Why the hesitation now? Before she could really dive deeper into her self questioning, she made an attempt to move things along.
Brexis: What do you say we end this day off right? More big booms?
Cole: ::smiling, relaxed:: I’d like that. ::beat:: Friends blowing things up together is kind of my comfort zone.
With a soft smile, Charlotte nodded.
Brexis: Good. Because I can absolutely deliver in that department.
Cole: ::turning back toward the ordnance:: You want big, loud, or … something that makes the safety protocols nervous?
A smirk crossed her face as she shrugged and held her palms up flat.
Brexis: Why not all three?
Cole: ::a small smile:: I’ve got a feeling this won’t be the last time we do this.
Brexis: Perfect, because I am already thinking of ways to adjust the program to give us bigger, better booms.
Natasha honed in her focus of a Warp Core segment, letting that mischievous smile dance across her face before looking at Charlotte and scooping up a charge. She pointed to the Warp Core and hucked the charge.
Brexis: ::In an announcer voice:: Cole has seeked out her enemy and prepared for ultimate decimation. Will the hit land or will she–
Charlotte was cut off by the sound of the explosion. It landed with heft only inches away from the target, causing the hunk of Warp Core to roll violently to the side as it sent out a shockwave. Dust and shrapnel scattering the field in its wake.
Cole: Response
Brexis: ::Turning to Natasha:: I have that effect on people. You really shouldn’t let pretty girls distract you.
Her laugh was genuine as she playfully nudged Natasha with her elbow.
Cole: Response
Brexis: What do you say we go get some more coffee and decide on some new things to add to our ::gesturing to the field:: repertoire here?
Cole: Response
