Blue Meeting:
Who: Gladio + Blue Team and Friends.
Where: Dining carriage. (Change of venue, larger space)
When: Grasshopper 15th after lunch.
What: The first Blue Team meeting with the new Leadership in place.
Warnings: Unknown. Possible cuteness. Snack induced jealousy. Will update if something comes up!
To say that Gladio was nervous would be an understatement. He hadn't been able to get much sleep the night before worrying if this would work out the way he had planned. Would people be receptive to what he asked? Would people even come to this meeting? He had been assured by several people there would be at least some (who could resist lovingly prepared snacks?) but it remained to be seen.
Gladio sat at a table, there was a notepad and a pencil in his hand. He would be taking notes of things he deemed important.
Once people started filtering in, Gladio began to feel somewhat better. Calmer. He watched them milling about with a smile. It was only when he thought there was enough that he rose and gave a call to get people's attention.
"First, I just wanna thank everyone for coming. I know it was short notice, but between the mission and platform day coming up, my hands were tied.
In future I'm going to do my best to have a meeting like this before every big mission, once we get the info. I don't think a little organisation can hurt. And... with that in mind. The reason I wanted to get you all here. I want everyone to get to know each other. And I want to learn more about you all. I'd like, if you're all willing, to assign simple roles within the team to each person for missions. If you don't want to be part of that, just let me know. That's your choice." He smiled wider. "If you do... I'll get to you. If you've any questions, I'm open to them. Piccolo and WangJi are also here to answer your questions and concerns. Not just here and not just for missions, but any you have. We're here for you."
With that his smile became a grin. "Now... I know two of our number have been working hard to make delicious snacks, so do me a favour? Make them happy and dig in! Enjoy them and... chat. Mingle. Get to know your fellow blue. We're a small team, lets make us the best team!"

The compliment makes her smile, and that smile continues when thankfully the conversation stays away from the dream and focuses more on Ple Two's - quite impressive - capabilities.
"That's so cool..! Even things like cars or motorbikes?" Maybe the idea of someone Ple Two's age driving a car should be concerning more than anything.. But Madoka has always found the other so outright capable that it feels almost natural to imagine all the same, somehow.
no subject
"I'm just tall enough to reach the pedals and such, so it shouldn't be difficult." Let the child drive!
no subject
Especially since Madoka goes quiet for a moment. The look in her eyes almost turns a bit daydream-y, since her imagination is definitely running away with this one. Ple Two, all dressed up in a cool way, with an amazingly cool helmet, coming to pick her up on a motorbike for a date...
This is too much for Madoka's heart, even if it's a fantasy that can't exactly come true on the train. But. You know. Let the girl dream about her cool motorbike-driving girlfriend.
"You really are so cool, Ple Two.."
And while it's not strange or even uncommon for Madoka to show the other girl with compliments, there's definitely that special tone about what she's saying now that implies she's very much imagining something that makes her heart pound faster than usually.
no subject
"It's... just what I'm good at..." The tone is impossible to ignore, but she still has to try to downplay herself a little. "If... if we get a chance to go for a drive together... maybe we should."
A helicopter? A speedboat?
no subject
Even though half the train will have a heart attack over two kids in their early teens driving on or in something together, huh. But look, if they're allowed to fight, then they might as well be allowed to drive, right? Especially since Ple Two can do it well! No big deal!
"Let's do it. At the first opportunity we get..!"
no subject
Ple Two nods rapidly. Even if she has to be a little sneaky about it. Even if she gets in a bit of trouble afterward...
