The assassination attempt on Thor was a disaster in the making despite its failure. It didn't matter that the perpetrator never had any chance of harming the Nephilim queen; as their host, Sam had allowed soone with ill intent to make it so far. His negligence was unforgivable and thus he owed the otherworldly beings so kind of reparations.
Fortunately, the Crimson Queen agreed to leave that matter to another date. Sam didn't want to think about it too much at the mont, especially when he had to ensure the reporters who had yet to leave the hotel didn't get wind of the incident.
Mimir must've predicted the PR disaster that would've resulted because she went through the effort of placing a barrier with sound blocking properties around the assassin, isolating the blast from the gun she used so no one would hear about it. Her quick thinking saved them a lot of headaches.
It was a favor Sam intended to repay, or rather, he had to repay as the green haired Nephilim conveyed that she expected as much from him.
The cleanup went through without a hitch. Just like the infiltrators from the white van, the assassin was a brainwashed puppet that stopped working the mont she failed at achieving her objective. Teleportation proved useful in moving things around and in less than an hour everything went back to normal.
So didn't even hear about the incident until much later, like Eleven who was busy preparing for a very important event.
"I… my stomach hurts…"
The blue haired idol held her tummy and sighed. Her face was paler than usual, nervousness eating at her as she awaited the designated ti.
"You know that's not possible." AK said, looking down at her friend with arms crossed under her chest. "It's just an illusion."
"I'm getting nervous as well." T-Two frowned, holding her stomach as she sat on the edge of her bed.
"You aren't going so…" AK's voice trailed off at the end, finally giving up.
The truth is, she was as nervous as those two, if not more. She failed to understand why. After all, she wasn't the one who had a very important eting coming up.
"Still, I can't believe Producer agreed to et you so soon…" said T-Two, still grimacing from the imaginary pain.
"Yeah… The truth is, I was worried he wouldn't pick up at all." Eleven replied, recounting what happened the previous day.
After her talk with the Doctor, Eleven gathered her courage and made that call. All of it went away the mont soone answered from the other side, but after the most stress inducing couple of minutes she experienced in her life, the conversation finally returned to the flow she was used to.
The two inquired about each other's lives after which the Producer asked if what he saw in the video they made was true. Once she answered all of his questions, Eleven beca nervous about his reaction only to feel relieved when he agreed to et. That said, she never expected him to visit the next day causing her to panic.
It only made sense as she wouldn't have much free ti with the Primordial's visit on the way, but her heart wasn't ready and she wished she had more ti to prepare.
Worst of all, her fellow idols decided to sit out of the reunion, saying that they would only get in the way.
"It's ti."
The clock hit 14:50, ten minutes before the Producer was scheduled to arrive. Eleven stood up and braced herself, checking herself in the mirror one last ti before heading out.
The previous night she had asked lissa to land her so clothes. Though her unique uniform should've been enough, sothing urged her to choose sothing different for her eting with that man. In an attempt to look cuter than usual she went through a number of outfits until she settled for a light blue dress with darker frills that matched the color of her thigh highs.
Her new appearance was quite refreshing, making her look less than a Valkyrie and more like a normal girl. Or so she thought, at least. No normal girl was as beautiful as her, and everything looked like designed clothes when worn by her.
"C'mon, get going already!" AK was quick to notice her friend's delayed actions. "You're going to be late at this point."
"A-are you sure you don't want to co?" Nervousness took over once more and the blue haired Valkyrie found herself fidgeting in her place.
"We discussed this already!"
AK seed to run out of patience, summoning her halo and teleporting. Appearing behind her blue haired friend, she started pushing her toward the door completely disregarding her flustered reaction.
"Wai- I'm not re-"
"I don't care." Said the purple haired Valkyrie. "Go and get it done with already!"
With a final push Eleven was thrown out of the hotel room. The door was slamd shut behind her as if to say she couldn't co back inside, and as she stood by herself in the hallway it beca clear that retreat wasn't an option.
"I can still teleport inside, you know?" She muttered to herself, her cheeks slightly puffed.
Obviously she wasn't about to do that. What's the point of delaying things when she was the one who asked for the eting? Besides, who knows if she'll get another chance if she wasted this one.
"Alright!"
Once again the blue haired idol gathered her courage and forced herself to move. She could've reached the eting room in the blink of an eye with a single teleport, but instead she chose to walk there. In the end her nervousness still affected her actions, making her hesitant to et the man she has special feelings toward.
~[ ]~
"... She's gone…"
AK watched as her blue haired friend marched toward her destination. Heaving a sigh, she exchanged a look with T-Two before wicked grins took over their faces.
"Elly looks so cute when nervous." Said Twenty Two. "I feel kinda jealous."
"Let's wait a little. We don't want to get caught before it starts."
The truth is, there was another reason why those two decided to not attend the reunion. Their friend was in love and she finally got to have a date with the man she desired. They said they didn't want to get in the way of such an event, but truthfully, they just realized that watching it from the sidelines was bound to be much more interesting.
Would she confess her feelings and ask him to make her his Personal Valkyrie? How would the Producer react? Whenever they thought about Eleven's affair, the two idols couldn't stop their overflowing excitent.
