Gothic Lolita	Slightly off the beaten path from the commercial mecca that is Times Square is the Bowlmor Arcade, though it's certainly a place that draws young and old, either out of nostalgia or just a place to hang out and bowl. For some, the beeps and chirps of ancient arcade games from the 80s and 90s draws more curiosity than anything else.     For example, the young woman currently pacing slowly down the middle of an aisle, curiously watching people play the varous game. She stands out mostly because her outfit is definitely a bit more elaborate than most, meaning she's getting some looks back from the mostly t-shirt and jean crowd that makes up most of the clientele. She doesn't appear to be playing, yet...just curiously observing, with a faintly bemused little smile on her rosebud lips.
Johnny Storm	Johnny Storm has just entered with his 'entrourage' " Yo! Drinks and bowling on me tonight peeps. Just make sure you get your shoes and stay safe huh?" he laughs. "Remember, Mai Tais are on me and anything else, you pay for." He quietly hands hie card to the bartender and says, "It's all on me...just let them know how uncool anything but a Mai tai is," and then he grabs a pair of shoes for himself then looks for his bowling lane.
Gothic Lolita	The arrival of Johnny and entourage does draw Lolita's attention, a little box popping up on her HUD as it highlights Johnny's face, then begins to list off information. After a moment a little tag pops up on him that reads 'FLAME ON!'. Not that she needs it, but it's the little amusements that drive her sometimes.     She does start drifting over that way, mostly out of curiosity as to what it looks like to see such a celebrity...bowling? That tickles her a bit, really.
Johnny Storm	Johnny Storms security pops up out of no where having already peep everyone and the possible directions towards Johnny. THey stop her, "Miss?" they say. "Of the possible trajectories of you path we think that you may walk into Mr Storm here. DO you have any business with him?" Johnny Storm is still working on finding a lane and going back to the desk he says, "Do you have any designer shoes and any designer lanes?"
Gothic Lolita	Lolita blinks curiously at the entourage member. "Well, yes. There are at least 271 possible trajectories that would take me near Mr. Storm." she points out. "At least 132 of those involve going up to the main counter to get shoes, too. The fact he's standing there is sort of secondary to that, wouldn't you say?" She's very polite in her response.     The girl beyond the counter giggles. "Oh, yeah, for you, sure!" She pulls out a pair of more snazzy blue and gold shoes, thens ays. "Lane 12 is our Galaxy Lane! It's got all the newest holographic tech on it, you'll love it!"
Johnny Storm	"That's Galactic," Johnny says in a very chessy voice then pulling out a $20 hands it to the girl. "Remember me. J'Storm," then turning away towards the lanes he throws up a hand to the group, "Holo Bowling over here peeps." Johnny Storm isn't paying attentiong to the guards but the guard says, "Well, you know, the guy is unpredeictable, but he has a few open places on his list that if we choose, we can just add random people. If we want. Your name? Miss? You intentions?"
Gothic Lolita	The petite girl looks thoughful. "Lolita." she says after a moment. "So I could become part of his entourage for the night? That sounds fun, actually." she admits. "And I have no intentions other than having an entertaining night out?" She smiles at the guard in question. "If that would meet with your approval?"
Johnny Storm	The guard nods and presses a button in his ear and immediately Johnny Storm stops what he is doing and turns in that direction. He drops his shoes and after directing friends towards the correct lane he walks back towards the guards. he throws up a high five and says, "My Man! What's up?" The guard simply directs a nod towards Lolita, "We have a new addition to the crew..her name is...? What is you name?" Johnny Storm bumps in, "My name is Jah Storm..like Jah rule, you name?" he extends his hand.
Gothic Lolita	Lolita's eyes twinkle as she curtseys, then takes the offered hand. Firm grip! "Lolita." she says easily. "I am apparenty a new addition to your crew." She sounds vaguely amused by this. "Nice to meet you, Jah. In person, that is, I know who you are though..." she assures him. "I didn't expect to see you bowling somehow..."
Johnny Storm	Johnny Storm nods, "This is my hood and my guard type dude do a pretty good job. Just over here, we can get you some shoes and we can start the games. Check out this totally new and coolholo bowling lane. Dope right?" He offers he does not let go of the shaken hand and leads Lolita towards the lane. The guards move toe better vantage points. They need to be covering 300 hundred approachs. "What brings you out tonight? Are you going to beat me at bowling? Are you from teh area? What's your favorite color and who killed JFK?" a thousands questions. "Want a Mai Tai?"
Gothic Lolita	There's no attempt to remove her hand as Johnny keeps possession as she walks after him. "Very dope, yo." she notes. "I'm out to have fun, probably, just passing through, black, and I'm fairly sure it actually was Lee Harvey, despite conspiracy theories to the contrary." she says agreeable. "Also, yes, I would like a Mai Tai. I've never had one.' she admits thoughfully. "Is it like a pina colada?"     In her HUD, the tag on Johnny updates to 'JAH SUAVE'.
Johnny Storm	Johnny Storm pauses and says, "Like a Pina Colada," the another pause of thought he says, "Well, yeah..they are both rum," he reaches his hand out for a pitcher and a glass and pours one for her. "It's a rum fruit punch basically," the a frown and he repeats. "Black huh?" he cranes his neck amongst his crew and says, "The black color crew is over there," they wave, "remind me to introduce you." "We are just hanging out tonight to bowl so," an unseen guard shows up with size 7 designer shoes and hands them to lolita," I didn't look at your feet. That is so invasisve, size seven?"
Gothic Lolita	"The black color crew?" Lolita smiles a bit at that. "Sure, I would enjoy that." she says, taking the offered glass, sniffing at it as she absently analyzes the mixture, pulling up a list of ingredients on her HUD, then looks over as the guard arrives. "Oh! Thank you." she says cheerfully, setting down the glass to take the shoes, then daintily leans down to unbuckle her heels, then steps out of them, before she slides on the bowling shoes, wiggling her toes a bit as she looks them over. They....so very, very clash with the rest of her outfit, but she'll take the fashion bullet for the night! "I've never actually been bowling." she admits, looking back to Johnny. "You do this frequently?"
Johnny Storm	Johnny Storm throws a thumb towards the black crew, "Yeah, those guys. They are cool though." Then turning his attention towards the lane he points towards the pins, "The goal is to knock all the pins down with the bowling ball. I play every now and again, it used to be so much more when I was in college," a sigh, "But I have lost all of my mojo." You can hear the rest of the crew now bowling and pins falling and groans and congrats. "It's pretty easy, all you gotta do is makst the motion and do it the same everytime," he backs up and grabs a ball that is needless to say adorned with flames and lightning bolts with 'The Storm' stenciled around the holes," Nice shoes, that match you color preference," he says winking as he tosses the ball at the same time.
Gothic Lolita	The lane is actually pretty impressive...the pins have holographic displays projected over them, making them look like space aliens that growl and slaver on the other end of the lane, which look sa bit like a star field, with a floating flying saucer over them. Lolita cocks her head. "My, you do this often then..." she says amusedly as the ball goes spinning down the lane and smashes into the xenomorphs, decimating them so that only three monsters on the right side remain.     She peers down at her shoes with bemusement. "They do...match in color." she admits, shifting from foot to foot. "I guess you need them so you don't slide on the polished wood?" She's fairly sure that won't happen..she's....well, a lot heavier than she looks. "Oh, you got most of them! Congratulations."
Johnny Storm	"Those are for you," Johnny says. "And most isn't good enough," he glares at the rest of the monsters and his ball comes back up through the cycle and tosses it again, this time getting the rest. Smiling he steps aside, "Your tunr, now that you know how it is down. Just knock them all down," he reachs above his head and punches a few buttons and as the pins reset they all turn to photos of Lee Harvy "Go Get'um." he puts his hands into a gun shape. "Pew Pew."
Gothic Lolita	The petite girl takes the ball offered, turning it over in her hands to find the holes for her fingers then very seriously walks up to the line, as she idly plots trajectories. "Very approp." she admits with a faint smile. "Am I saving JFK in an alternate timeline or something now, if I destroy them all?" She draws the ball back, then very gracefully releases it, the ball thumping as it hits the lane, then spinning as it curves right, then back left to smash cleanly into the lead Harvey, the pins going flying in all directions from the force of the impact as the spaceship jerks and an explosion bursts out of it that creates STRIKE! in fireworks. "LIke that?" she says, looking back at Johnny as she arches a brow playfully.
Johnny Storm	Johnny Storm purses his lips and says, "I have seen beginners luck more than once and Mai Tai courage a few times," he blindly hands his cup back and it is refilled without him asking. He brings is back and takes a sip, "Must be Mai Tai courage and a little bit of motivation. What are you favorite things so that I can put those images on the pins," he raises his own brow and finally smiles. "We have a natural here guys," and the groups takes notice. "It's Lolita. Yeah, just like the book."
Gothic Lolita	Loli walks back over to retrieve her glass, sipping from it as she savors the taste, letting her sensors send a corresponding surge of sensations into her. "This IS pretty good." she admits, then smiles. "My favorite things?" She cocks her head, chewing on her index finger lightly for a moment. "Well, I like cute things. Though admittedly that's a very large category. Perhaps suprise me?" she says, raising her brows at Johnny. "And yes, the book, though actually it's Gothic Lolita. If you're familiar with the style?"
Johnny Storm	Johnny Storm taps a few buttons and the next set of pins are all different pictures of himself, "Gothic..like the computer font?" he raises both eyebrows now sipping his drink and taking a seat next to wear she goes to pick up her glass. "I think it's the one I use for my headshots."
Gothic Lolita	"It's also a style of text, yes." Lolita clarifies easily, not seeming to mind the explanation. "Gothic lolita is a style in Japan, that focuses on very fancy and elaborate outfits of varying levels of ruffles and lace. I'm very fond of it, that's why I chose the name." she says simply, reaching out one handed to pick her ball again quite easily.     She mocks pouts playfully. "You want me to knock you down, Johnny?" she asks, peering over. "Well...if you insist then..." She tilts her head again, then with the same effortless grace she sends the ball spinning down lane...and it strikes dead center again, sending the pins flying in all directions.     "I do like the headshot, however, very chic." she notes, turning as she clasps her hands behind her back.
Johnny Storm	Johnny Storm frowns again, "Ah. Gothic Lolita. Maybe I have heard of it and you said you liked cute things, nothing cuter at the moment. He grabs a ball and throws it at pins of himself as well...7-10 split. By now the other people of the group are coming over and expressing the desire to bounce to the next spot. He consdiers his split and as the ball comes up again and he offers it to Lolita pointing to the pins, "Can you pick that up?"
Gothic Lolita	Lolita cocks her head, then looks over at the pair, tilting her head slightly, before she reaches out to take the offered ball. "Yes." she says simply, moving with that same, slow grace...actually, now that you've seen it sometimes, it may remind you of a certain blue-eyed hunk of rock and how he moves....carefully sometimes. To avoid breaking things.     Again the ball spins...this time, to the left as it shifts to the side, then just as it looks as if it's about to head straight into the cutter, it taps the last pin, sending it spinning across to bump the other one over as well as the ball lands with a clunk.     Lolita looks back over and says, almost apologetically. "I think I have an unfair advantage with this game, but it's fun to watch as well." She smiles softly. "Are you moving on, then?"
Johnny Storm	Johnny Storm considers Lolita for a long moment then says, "Yeah, I gotta bounce. The peeps are restless," he smiles. He extends a hand, "But hey, you are on the list now and I don't keep where I am going a secret. You can find it on my twitter," he smiles a again and this time the light finds and flashes on it. "If you are new to the city I love to show people around," he pauses. "You could be a bowling shark," he points to the shoes. "I can trust you to return those?"
Gothic Lolita	Lolita says seriously. "Of course. I will make sure they go back where they belong." She smiles softly. "That's very gallant of you, Mr. Storm. I may take you up on that, if you've the free time. I haven't really been able to take in all of New YOrk before, my work tends to take me all over the world." She curtseys lightly. "Thank you for a fun time, I'll look forward to seeing you again."
Johnny Storm	Johnny Storm salutes and going to the front desk returns the shoes then turning back towards Lolita he says something an points towards her. His group and himself leave and he turns to wave one last time before going out of the dorr with the group. The lady at the front desk comes over to Lolita with a pitcher of Mai Tai. "The guy who just left bought htis for you."
Gothic Lolita	Lolita smiles faintly. "Thank you." she says gravely, sliding off the shoes she's wearing as she accepts the picture, her eyes flicking to monitor where Johnny is...even through the wall, for a little bit. "So that's Johnny Storm..." she says thoughfully, then sips from her Mai Tai. Well. She's got a pitcher to go through then!
