[Either Widowmaker had managed to talk someone else into holding her omnicomm up or she managed to prop the device up and get herself exactly where she wanted to be in frame. Given her perfectionist tendencies, it was more likely the latter and she was wearing something quite different than the last time she'd been on the network. Far more practical then the violet catsuit she'd had on before, the color worked better against her blue skin and most of her tattoos were covered, leaving just the one on her right forearm visible past the edge of her glove. Sharp eyes would see the patches on her shoulders were the Legion insignia and even her rifle showed some modification.]

As it appears that purple is no longer in fashion, I decided to switch my look a bit for the field. [Widowmaker's lips curled in a smile that hinted that there was some kind of inside joke taking place.] Something that I consider a 'blast from the past'. Tell me... how does it look?

[She extended her left hand forward in a shooting motion at the omnicomm. Having been kept out of the Olum mission for obvious reasons, designing this superhero costume was how she passed the time. And she wanted to show it off.]

Very nice.

I am pleased you approve. It has been years since I wore this style.

Well it's quite fitting. Maybe I should change up my look a little as well.

The special tailors here know what they are doing and the materials are excellent. Every woman needs to do something different every once in a while. Perhaps it would do you some good. [An eyebrow rose.] Help move further from whence you came.

The fashions here are a little strange, but...I suppose it couldn't hurt to look into it.

Who said you have to conform to the local fashion? [Never mind that Amélie had mentioned purple being out of style just a bit ago.]

A friend of mine from back home impressed on me how important it is to be relatable to the masses.

We're their heroes. We have to look the part.

[There was the slightest twist to Amélie's lips as she fought off a sneer at herself being referred to as a hero.]

You need only make an impression, that is all. [a pause] But stay away from capes; they are tacky.

And skirts. Really, really impractical.

That entirely depends on the skirt in question and what you are wearing beneath it.

[Though being a sniper, pants were a necessity. For someone like Marjara... maybe not so much.]

I've always found them a bother.

What about a longcoat?

Stylish but the design needs to not impede movement. I suggest there be a slit up the back of it to prevent it from tripping you up.

Yes, I've found that to be useful with traveling cloaks. Especially in close quarters.

There are many reasons to avoid close quarters. Are you not worried about accidentally setting yourself on fire, little mage?

I'm not afraid to take someone down with me.

Besides, my flames won't hurt me.

I do not doubt that. [Though Marjara was tiny, she was quite fierce. It was admirable.]

Interesting. I did not known fire was so discerning.

Fire isn't. But I've known it since I was a child. I know how to walk through it without being burned.

There's a risk, of course, as there always is working with anything as dangerous and unpredictable. But I haven't been afraid of it for a very long time.

Any fire, or just that created by your magic?

We could find out.

That sounds like a fun way to spend an evening.

[Did this mean she got to set Marjara on fire? She wasn't remotely a pyro but how often does a person get the opportunity to set someone on fire?]
