[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.]

[ Robbie isn't being serious, even if he's matching her in deadpan. His eyes have that gleeful, expectant look of someone who is joking and is convinced that he will win this repartee. ]

It's all fun and games until someone gets shot in the eye.

[araignee_du_soir]

Then it is just fun.

[Had Widowmaker been anyone else, there would have been a twitch of the lips accompanying that.]

[walkingballpit]

[ Uhhh, no. ]

I kind of doubt that having it hit my eye would've improved getting shot. At all.

[araignee_du_soir]

But it gives you a valid excuse for the tears. You need to think about this objectively.

[This has become entirely too entertaining.]

[And on Robbie's end, somebody comes up behind him and reaches for the comm. Someone in blue and white that reveals themselves to be Vance once the comm is nabbed.]

Robbie, no.

[walkingballpit]

[ Robbie is emboldened by the lack of a camera to catch potential embarrassment. His voice can be heard in the background. ]

What? Too seedy for you, Vance?

[sir_vancelot]

[The comm gets turned so that nobody's faces can be seen, but...Vance has forgotten to turn it off. So it absolutely catches his sigh.]

More worried about how much she reminds me of Ms. Romanov, actually. And it's not just the fact that they both share 'Widow' as part of their codenames.

[walkingballpit]

Ms. Romanov. Whole different universe, and she's still got you punked.

[ Robbie doesn't sound too worried about the comparison. ]

I don't see the resemblance. I think Black Widow would've had me for breakfast ten minutes ago.

[sir_vancelot]

Pretty sure the only reason Widowmaker hasn't is because you're in a different room and she was more wondering how deep you were willing to dig yourself.

[walkingballpit]

All the way.

[ You can't just set him up like that and expect him to ignore it. ]

Besides, I've got you to protect me. Everybody knows you're a hero 'cause you've got a cape.

[araignee_du_soir]

Men are best when they have been marinating for a while. They get nice and tender.

[walkingballpit]

[ Robbie's fighting laughter with every word to get it all out before Vance can interfere. ]

I got USDA certified beefcake right here. This meat is prime. You can filet my mignon anytime.

[sir_vancelot]

[How is this Vance's life?]

[Oh, right. This was still all Dwayne's fault, somehow.]

[He flips the comm back forward so that he can see it, shaking his head.]

And I think that's enough roasting himself for the day. Time to let him stew a bit. Have a good evening.

[And that's all he says before turning the the comm off with a sigh.]
