Who: Charis

minus1twin
What: Looking for someone for a friendly spar.
When: Afternoon around the 4th
Where: Market dome and then moving to less populated dome.

It was odd that this was probably the calmest that Charis' very long life had ever been. There was a voice in the back of her mind that told her to try to enjoy it. Easier said than done. Quiet and calm brought a lot of time to think, which was not something she wanted at all. Besides, calm was boring and she wasn't used to being bored. The idea of meeting up with someone to spar a little seemed like a much more appealing, and distracting, idea. Not to mention she was a bit curious what exactly this woman could potentially do.

Wanda had mentioned some abandoned domes that they could potentially use without risking anyone around them and so Charis waited at the market for her to lead the way to that. She hadn't been entirely sure what to expect so she'd just thrown on her red and black stealth suit and put her dual blades on her back.

Wanda was wearing a plan dark cotton dress with her usual combat boots. Her long red hair had been tied behind her head to keep it out of the way but she still wore her usual necklaces and rings. She had once been asked why she continued to fight in jewelry and it's simply because that's what she's used too. Her battles rarely gave her a chance to change what she'd been wearing and Wanda had adapted to fighting in casual clothes.

Charis wasn't easily spotted but Wanda caught her gaze and smiled. "I hope you were not waiting long. I am Wanda."

Her frame was slender but Charis would likely notice the lean tone muscles in her legs and arms. Wanda relied on her powers strength but being able to run and keep her stamina up had come from years of training with Natasha and Steve. Neither Avenger would let her rely solely on her abilities during training and it had forced Wanda to grow as a fighter. When it came to skill, she was still lacking but she hoped sparring and training here would help.

"Are you ready to go?"

For the most part Charis and Wanda seemed to share a similar physical build. The skin tight body suit hugged her body revealing a toned yet lithe form. While her people did posses greatly enhanced strength their fighting style relied more on agility and speed than brute force. Her facial features were fairly gentle and the smile she offered Wanda was seemingly genuine.

"Not long at all. Nemesis or Charis works for me. I answer to either." One was preferred over the other but it'd been a very long time since she'd gotten a choice in the matter.

"I like to think I'm always ready," but not always great at being funny. "Lead the way."

Wanda felt a smile tug at the corner of her lips as she began to lead the way. "I think I prefer Charis." It sounded more like a name than a superhero title like Nemesis. Not that Wanda was opposed to titles but she wanted to get to know the person, not the powers that she might hold. It was her own experiences that made her like that but Wanda had never really gotten comfortable being treated like a weapon and she didn't want to do that to someone else.

The path they took wasn't long but it quickly went from crowded to vacant as they stepped into one of the unoccupied domes. It was obvious by the empty bottles lying around that this was a space that was sometimes used by deviants but no one else was around at the moment.

Red mist danced around Wanda's fingers as she lifted an empty beer can and tossed it across the floor. "This is some of what I can do."

"Been a while since I've just been Charis." But she'd take it. In fact, she kind of liked that and it showed with the small smile that formed. It was strange, but nice, to find herself in a location where the weight of the past wasn't pulling down quite so hard on her.

When Wanda started her display Charis watched intently and with obvious interest. "Telekinetic? Never seen it with the red mist."

Wanda smiled back at Charis before turning her shoulders to face her fully.

"Yes."

"I can do more than that but it is what I use to fight." She rolled her shoulders in a shrug as she continued. "Shields and blasts. I've held back here, not wanting to destroy the domes by accident." Wanda had witnessed what had happened with a small crack appeared in the domes, she didn't want to go through that again.
