Playtime! [Gabe]

For certain reasons unknown to Gabe, all words made complete sense to her. The Joker card made little to her favor, and the sight of such card being shown to her, in fact, made her distressed and slightly bothered. "Or maybe too much of a trick", she returned her glance to her glass of wine, taking one sip of it...and another...and another. Perhaps alcohol would make her feel slightly better and ease the disquietude in her heart. Even though the more attentive people could have a guess at her emotions should they really be attentive to Brittany's behavior and familiarized with the young woman, on the outside she wouldn't really look bothered or uneasy at all, just the smiling façade as usual, "Like, what's the meaning behind all of this?"

Once she finished her wine, she cast the glass aside so the waitress would come and retrieve it, to which the girl gave a small nod with a sympathetic smile. Still, the mention of her bio out of the public was something that disturbed her. Of course she remembered the time she was interviewed about her brief ascension in her modeling career. But most information released to the public were..."dubious". To say the least. "Wow, that's so nice...like, wow. You wanna make me fall for you, don't you?" She was jesting, of course, and her playful chuckle would leave it very clear, but beyond the humorous remarks, there was a solid attempt to avert the attention from some topic she had no intention to discuss to something else she would have no problems with. "How did you end up here, Gabe?"

Weakness:

She placed her elbows on the table, interlocking fingers from both hands and resting the chin over. "That's on you. Do you think you can?" Her smile broadened, leaving the answer in the open, though no malice or second intentions were to be found in her countenance. Brittany was playful, but not venomous at all. "I understand what you mean, totally. When the right opportunity arrives, it does only once in a lifetime and we can't, like, ignore it and let it pass, you know? But yeah, speaking about opportunities...next time you invite me to your place, at least warn me what kind of place it is! Like, I did my best, but I had no clue it was one of those places!"

"Future? I don't plan mine. Like I always say, "my name is now" and the best things in life are sudden and unplanned, right?" At least from her point of view, planning ahead or even thinking about the future was a waste of time. Or perhaps she was just that undisciplined and carefree. "I'll keep that in mind. While we're at it? Do you think I'd do well here? What's your analysis, Mister Gabe? Don't lie to me; if you do, I'll know, mmkay?" She point at him almost menacingly, if only her laughter didn't give it away as one more jest.

"Well, nooo? You just ruined everything! That's so not what I meant!" She laughed at his banters, but really, that's such a pessimistic way to view things. Even if it was just a joke...that is, assuming Gabe was simply joking. "I'd rather replace "unwanted" by "unexpected", thank you. And the "car crash"...hmmmm...well, it can be a good reason to skip school or job?? See, there's a good side to everything!" Or at least that's what she'd like to believe.

On the following topic, she was a bit surprise at the compliments. More so, at the uniqueness of them, and from who they came. Gabe seemed to be quite of a reserved fellow, but right now his behavior was...alluring, if anything. Like a panther ready to pounce. The setting was favorable as well, as it looked less like a casino and more like a stronghold of pretty, seductive people. Not that she minded, it was a really enticing environment for all it's worth. ""Are you, like, trying to seduce me into working here? 'Cause it's totally working, keep it up!" She chuckled in a humorous tone. "Pink diamond", right? She definitely liked it!

A visit at work? Hm... Brittany was personally okay with visits as they are, specially from someone she was fairly comfortable with. Then again, she was comfortable with everybody and everyone, it wasn't a problem. On the other hand... A visit at work was something she was not ready to. At least not now. "That'd be so cool! But, like, I have to ask my managers first. Photoshoots are usually private and stuff like that. You get it, right? So, like, I'll talk to them and then I'll get back to you! Mmkay?" It was a little unfortunate Gabe's break was over. She liked talking to him so far, even if he was stepping on a dangerous territory with certain topics for conversation. "While you can't visit me at my work for now, Imma keep visiting yours! Ha!" She made a face, showing him her tongue in a fun way as if she emerged victorious of a childish prank.

Brittany nodded and stood up, as Gabe himself was preparing to return to his duties. "Gotcha! I'll text you if anything to know when's your shift, and if you're around, I'll stop by! Right?" She picked her phone again, and after some brief exchange of numbers that wouldn't take more than a few seconds, she'd return it to her purse. A departure is always sad, though this time she was satisfied with her little visit to the casino. "Do stay tuned, Imma send you a message anytime! Well, I'm going now, okay? I don't feel like holding you any longer from your duties. I should be on my way as well, have some things to do at home, like...laundry, cleaning, you know, the regular annoying housewife stuff!" She chuckled, before glancing a bit to the sides, trying to recall her way to the exit, clearly confused.
