[Gemma Dove]

Gemma felt a pink tint entering her cheeks again as the other girl repeatedly called her angel. Gemma couldn't see why she deserved such a title; She was just being friendly and welcoming, which she felt should be a given with the human race as a whole. She knew that was a fruitless hope, but it didn't stop her from trying to be as kind as she could be. Her blush only deepened as the Natalie continued to compliment her. "Aww, goodness," She mumbled with a sheepish but bright smile, giggling a little as she waved a hand at her new friend. "You really are flattering me! I'm no angel! Honestly." She then gave the other girl a playful light hearted wink. "Anyway, angel is my nickname for you, miss!" Gemma then went back to her soup, fighting to hold her her blush from seeping once again into her golden curls.

Gemma had never been called "angel" so many times before, or complimented so kindly. Natalie was truly a sweetheart; This was only further cemented when she offered their first working trip out to be free. Gemma blinked at her friend, before waving her hands defensively. "No, no! It's fine, honestly! You deserve to be paid for your work!" She then tilted her head slightly to one side with a small giggle, her curls bouncing. "I'll even treat you to a coffee break and lunch!" The world needed more people like Natalie, more so then ever before. The reporter couldn't help a bundle of excited nerves form in her stomach at the idea of working with such a skilled photographer; Her ability to capture an image was awe inspiring. The blonde continued to eat as she mused on this, eating some of the bread and using it to soak up a little of the soup. As she nearly finished, she tapped her spoon a little on the rim of her bowl. "Where are you staying at the moment? Do you have an apartment?" She asked curiously, her eyes bright.

[Natalie Smith]

Natalie had to admit that part of her maaaaaaay be working to get the younger girl blushing more. She just wore the flushed expression far too cutely for Natalie to pass up. And what could she say? She was a playful flirt at heart anyhow, even when she didn't mean to flirt. Besides, it was easy to compliment someone so kind and adorable as Gemma. So when her blush deepened, Natalie's smile only grew wider. "Oh hush. You're the closest thing to an angel I've met here. And my own 'angelhood' is only wing deep, believe me." She assured the girl with a smirk.

Natalie shook her head, her decision set. "No no, my mind is set. There's nothing you can do to change it." She stated with a grin. Although the offer of coffee was very tempting. "Hmmm....well alright, I won't object to that. But I'm helping you pay. No buts about it." She added with a wink and another one of her smirks before she continued eating a little. She wouldn't refuse all the generosity this girl was trying to give her, but Natalie didn't want her paying for her full meal. Maybe it was just her weakness for sweet girls.

Natalie looked up curiously when Gemma asked about her apartment. Although her mind wanted to leap into the gutter, Natalie had a feeling that wasn't the case considering how the girl had acted so far. Still, that wouldn't stop her from having some fun. "I've got an apartment down in Kalispell. Why? Am I going to get a surprise visit from an angel one day?" Natalie questioned, mischief dancing in her eyes. "Descending down into the mortal plane and all that? I'd be flattered to have you."

[Gemma Dove]

Gemma was beyond flattered by Natalie's words, giggling a little when she was again complimented, bowing her head slightly in an attempt to hide her pink flushed cheeks from the other girl; Gemma couldn't help it, she'd always been someone who blushed easily, but since coming into her mutation it seemed all the more intense. She however looked back up when her companion referred to her angelic nature only being "wing deep". "You are being far too hard on yourself, miss!" Gemma pouted, raising an eyebrow. "You're one of the few people I've met who has offered me such kindness right away with no reason other then it's a part of their nature. I mean, I could be wrong..." She pointed her spoon at her, narrowing her eyes in mock suspicion. "You could be a secret spy, trying to monitor my articles!" She then laughed, her giggle like the shake of a bell.

Then the girl went go on to answer her question about where she was living. Now Gemma's intention had been to offer to help the girl find somewhere to stay had she said she was holed up in some hotel or other; She had no idea of the suggestive implications until her friend tossed a playfully mischievous comment back at her. For a moment however, Gemma didn't get it.
"I'd love to visit your place sometime, I-" She began, only to stop mid sentence, blinking at Natalie with widened eyes as she caught the hint of mischief in her companion's. "OH." Almost at once Gemma's cheeks turned practically scarlet, the pink tint sweeping her curls like trusses of candyfloss. She gave an embarrassed giggle, waving her hands. "I didn't mean it like that!" She pleaded, the warm flush of her skin creeping down her neck slightly; She then pouted as she glanced upwards to her pink fringe. "Great. Say hello to candyfloss hair! Well, this is my ability." she gave a wide embarrassed grin to the other girl.

[Natalie Smith]

Yes Natalie was definitely enjoying this far too much. Already her smile had expanded to a cheshire grin at the increased blush on her companion's face. It was just too much fun. "Oh hush. You're the one being too hard on yourself. It's a rare treat when I meet someone so enthusiastic and sweet. And it's genuine too." Natalie said with a chuckle. "That's even rarer." Although Gemma said much the same about Natalie, the elder blonde wasn't exactly convinced. She was, however, amused at being a supposed 'spy.' "Oh yes, I'm a nefarious spy sent to check on your work." Natalie said with narrowed eyes, smirking. "And now that you know, I'll have to send you back to heaven, angel." She added teasingly.

Natalie's little joke didn't seem to register with Gemma initial. However, midway through her sentence it hit. A blush consumed the girl's cheeks and sent those pink swirls back up into her hair. So Natalie had been right after all! Her powers were connected to her embarrassment. "I know, but I'm bad against temptation." Natalie said, chuckling. Oh she looked so horribly embarrassed. Natalie couldn't wipe the grin off her face. "As I said, it's a lovely power. And your hair still looks amazing. There's a lot of girls who'd love to has those curls of yours. The pink just makes it even more unique." She pointed out. "Trust me, it only makes you cuter."

[Gemma Dove]

"Or maybe you're here to simply embarrass me!" Gemma giggled sheepishly, putting her hands to her pink cheeks. She then blinked at Natalie, before narrowing her eyes teasingly. "Oh hush you!" Gemma pouted, bating her hand playfully at the other girl. "Have you looked in the mirror lately? You're far cuter then me!" She then glanced up to her swirls of pink candyfloss currently making up her hair, and smiled softly, slowly bringing back in her natural golden hue. The warm colour swept along her hair slowly, the pigments of colour changing back until her mess of bouncy locks had returned to a golden halo. Her skintone also shifted, the scarlet fading to be replaced once again by her normal complexion.

Gemma wasn't embarrassed by her power, but sometimes she was a little sheepish by what it did; She could control it perfectly fine on a day to day basis, but one moment of embarrassment or other unexpected emotion and it shifted rapidly without her consent. Ever since the SPRITE, it seemed to have only grown worse, with at times nearly her entire body changing colour in moments. She then raised an eyebrow at the other girl once her colour tones had returned to normal. "I'm going to have to watch you now, miss.Spy, out to embarrass me!" She then grinned, before taking in the last few mouthfuls of soup before giving a satisfied sigh, leaving her spoon in the now empty bowl. "I needed that... But it really does chase away the Montana winter blues, don't you think?"

[Natalie Smith]

"Hmmm maybe." Natalie teased with a grin. She certainly wouldn't mind embarrassing the girl some more to get her powers to go out of Wack. It was just too much fun and, well, Natalie really didn't do well against temptation. "I have in fact. This morning." Natalie replied with a chuckle. "The real question is: have you? Especially when you go all pink like this. It's absolutely adorable." She insisted before realizing that she had just about finished her meal. Instead she drank, watching as Gemma once again had to calm herself down to get rid of her color.

"Miss Spy huh? So now I'm no longer an angel?" Natalie asked with a raised eyebrow and a mischievous smirk on her face. Although angel never fit her anyways. "And what can I say? I like seeing you with a tint of pink." Natalie added with a wink and a cheshire's grin. But then her attention returned to the soup and Natalie nodded in agreement. "It does. Luckily it seems the soup's definitely improved since I was last here. Believe me it was closer to sludge than actual soup." She said, shaking her head.

Then she observed Gemma for a bit before asking a question. "So tell me more about yourself Gemma. I already know where you work, but hardly anything else about you yourself. Well other than the fact you can turn a lovely shade of pink." She mused with a twinkle in her eye. "You tell me about you, and I'll tell you about me. We should learn more about each other if we're going to work together, right?"
