hello friend

[quariantine]

[ Just another day shopping with her friends, just another giggly girl backing up to take a hilarious picture of her friends with the latest topless Abercrombie guy - no wait, she doesn't have everyone in the picture, back, back, back--

She runs into something very tall, very unyielding, and wearing the local mall security uniform. Oops. She whirls around, threatening to trip over her own feet, but catches herself and stands flat on two feet, holding a hand out to him in apology. Ooooh, he doesn't look friendly. ]

Sorry! Ooh, sorry.

be still my heart

[shotguncarnage]

[ his attention's focused elsewhere before he catches sight of the girl with the brightly-coloured hijab about to run into him. he's off his game today; he doesn't even think to move to get out of her way or stop her.

his arms unfold and a hand goes out as though to keep her from falling over, but stops short as she untangles herself. certain she's settled on her feet, he crosses his arms again to where they were before. ]

You okay?

[ he doesn't exactly sound friendly but at least he doesn't sound angry? he looks over her head at her friends and looks back down to her with an arched brow. ]

Need me to move over?

<3!

[quariantine]

Yeah, I'm fine! [ ... Well, at least no one's biting her head off! And as long as it's not a bite or even much of a bark, she's at least willing to bet that she's not in any sort of trouble, even if her heart is going a little faster than it should. She pats herself down, checking her hijab for any loose pins before smiling and giving him a thumbs up, hoping that he didn't get poked.

Her friends are already calling her back and asking her what the hold-up is when he asks his question. ] No, you're fine! [ She waves them off as she looks down at her iPhone at a sudden alert. Oh, the Network... She frowns, scrolling through the new post briefly. Tyrone has a full view from his height at probably at least a head and a half over her, and it takes her a second before she realizes - oh, right, public place, security guard right over her shoulder. Not the best idea right now. She looks back up at him, trying to smooth over the moment by switching over to her camera again and handing it over to the guard. ]

Actually, do you mind taking a group picture?

[ One of her friends yells, "He could probably take an aerial picture too!" She turns towards them and makes a slicing gesture at her throat, eyes widening. NO. DON'T MESS. ]

Right, no, not that. Uh, do you know how...?

<3!!

[shotguncarnage]

[ she adjusts her scarf and he glances down briefly, as though he might find something she's dropped. his older sister always had a lot of pins in her hair, so it's like second nature. he doesn't even realize he's done it.

his arms unfold and rest on his hips, no less intimidating than before, but he nods to her confirmation and seems to expect her to move on.

the request actually seems to catch him off guard. ] Huh? Hm...

[ he hears the girl's suggestion and looks from the group ahead of him to the girl in front of him. he smirks. ]

Heh. [ he does grin a little then. hard to say if it's better than the scowl from before, though. ] Yeah, I can. Whatcha got? And you still want it in front of Mr. Hotness there? [ it's asked loud enough for the other girls to hear, gesturing with a stab of his chin towards the poster ]

[quariantine]

Yeah! [ She says it, then has the grace to look a little embarrassed. Mr. Abercrombie is very studly, after all. Inappropriate! ] Or... Maybe just a group photo. [ She motions to her gal pals to stop posing, who start laughing among themselves as they gather. ] Never mind, group picture!

[ She has to step up on tiptoe when she lifts the phone up for his inspection, pointing at the clicky button. ] Just tap that. Can you take two?
