Sanduleak help his hands immediately when she shot back the oath, note to self not everyone was bastard. It was very hard note for him to remember but it was times like this it shined. She wasn't annoying in the least in his opinion, besides the whole all blood going straight to his head thing. In his defense he knew the mask would hide his burning carmine cheeks from her...he just didn't know he unconsiously showed stuff like becoming a bright red stop light.
"I appreciate that, sorry for uh kinda doubting you but at the very least I'll stick by ya for this and probably a crap ton of other schemes. So hey, you got the brightest pandemonium member on your side"
He beamed a bit proudly, almost literally as well, as he declared the promise. He did catch the smirk though and could already tell it would be a common omen for him...oh shit she knew didn't she. Also adorkable was a word he had no clue what to feel about besides using a hand in an attempt to cover his face through his mask. Maybe she could see through the visor or something.
"Y-yeah adorkable hehehe...gonna be honest can't tell if it's a compliment or insult...maybe both."

She raised an eyebrow when Sanduleak held up his hands. She wasn't meaning to be threatening. Though she supposed she was being touchy about the subject. They all were when it came to that dimensional horror. When her helmeted friend apologized she waved it off. She wasn't going to let his words hurt her. Though she enjoyed when he said he'd stick by her for a few schemes.
"Oh I'm sure you're the brightest. In more ways then one."
She winked and let a small giggle roll off her tongue. She could tell he was beaming over the promise. Yet another sign of his adorable nature. She almost wished she had a pokeball to capture him with. Then again, he may just get out and cause trouble so perhaps it's a good thing. Her eyes widened when he admitted he didn't know whether she was insulting him or not.
"It's a compliment. At least from me it is. There's nothing wrong with being dorky. Most times, like in your case, it's downright cute. Like how your helmet lights up like a Christmas Tree when you blush."

"N-nah I wouldn't say that"
He allowed his hand to pass through his helmet so he could scratch his cheek nervously. Though he was proud of his wit, he knew there were a few other members who could probably outpace him, but he'd keep his claim on being the light at least.
"But l-least in terms of flashiness I like to think I'm pretty up there."
Was this flirting? Because if so it weird mixture of heaven and hell, on one hand the compliments and laughter were nice, on the other he felt like he was gonna take Bloodbath's moniker with how much he had in his head...then she mentioned something about his helmet glowing...wait what? Turning away he flashed a small mirror into existence and just stared at the scarlet helmet that stared back at him.
"How longs it been like that?...and how much would I have to pay or do to make sure it doesn't leave us two?"
He had to focus on forcing his blush on his face and 'mask' down while glancing away from her. It explained a lot at least, she couldn't see his face, just had a flipping sign on his forehead that said he was being a nervous dork. And there was no way in hell he was letting any other pandemonium members hear about this, the number of threats he'd have to deliver and follow through would not be worth the effort.

Siren laughed as Sanduleak panicked about his helmet. It was hysterical to see a member of the feared Pandaemonium group to worry about blushing. Then again, a part of her understood. She played the terrifying thief for hire to a lot of local informants. Hell, wasn't she saying earlier that being called an angel was bad for her own reputation. She stood up and stretched, arching her back. A soft pop could be heard and a soft sigh of relief left her lips. She turned to her companion and smiled.
"Tell you what. Keep me being an angel a secret and I shall keep your transformation into a colored lightbulb a secret. How's that sound?"
She bit her lip as she waited for a response. She didn't want to have to charge him for such a little thing. He seemed to be a good guy and would make a great ally. But if he insisted she wouldn't say no.

Sanduleak was slightly busy making sure his helmet stayed it's normal dark color instead of being tomato red, before glancing up at her offer. It was real tempting considering how he really truly did not want to have deal with the stupid nicknames some of the mooks at Pandemonium would come up with, but he also didn't want to insult someone he actually gave a damn about.
"Uh sure fine alright but you'll still stay one in my opinion, that cool?"
It was slightly harder than usual to think around this super thanks to him being distracted by apparently every distracting move she did as well as having to focus on his helmet so it didn't resume it's little christmas light show.

Siren paused, pretending to think about it. She wasn't going to say no. However, where was the harm in letting him sweat it out a little? It was fun watching his reactions. The guy could be a comedian for heaven's sake. It made her regret telling him about his light show. After a few moments she nodded.
"Sure. You can think whatever you want about me Sanduleak. We both know I can't stop that."
She giggled and winked as the words left her mouth. What a strange turn of events this turned out to be. Going out to meet an informant and ending up meeting the fallen super. She had been curious about his health but hadn't had time to ask about him. She had civvie things to do. But man, what fun meeting Sanduleak had turned out to be. He seemed to be a good guy. Well... relatively good at least. So he was a member of the most chaotic group of villains in Emerald City. Nobody's perfect. He seemed like a good ally for her forays into the slums. And for now that's all she needed.

Sanduleak sat for a few moments in the silence, leg beginning to bounce up and down in impatience before she finally nodded. He let out a sigh, before standing up and beginning to covering his turning red helmet at her giggle and wink.
"It's hard to tell ya know? There are plenty of supers who could very easily do so, I bet...but least you don't seem to be that type who would, can see you being the quick and most likely embarrassing death of me, but hey least it'll be interesting and hopefully fun."
He chuckled before turning his chair back into light. It was pretty much truth, obvious bias from her saving his life, she seemed to have her morals straight and good head on her shoulders if the informant situation said anything. Plus she was just nice, which in the super business was surprisingly hard to find.
"You'll find me I take it, when you need help with procuring info and schematics?"

Siren waved off his concerns. She understood why he had to make sure. Supers, while a varied bunch, could be a little cruel. Even the good ones. Reputation was hard to build and once lost was a pain to regain. She knew how it worked. When he spoke of her being the death of him she could only assume it would be from over heating or blood loss.
"I would hope I don't kill you with all my teasing. That would be a heard thing to explain to your friends."
She had an encounter with one Panda member and after seeing what some of them could do, she did not wish to repeat the experience. She was sore for way too long after that encounter. His next question made her pause. Of course the answer was yes but the next question was how. Calling him on her phone was iffy was definitely an issue because her could track the owner and find her civvie ID. Heh, funny how she didn't think of that with a certian super that was built like a tree. That was a problem for her future self, so she'd worry about it later.
"Yes, but what's the best way to contact you? I doubt you want to give your number to a stranger with a fondness for finding things she shouldn't."

"Eh you'd be surprised how many of them would understand...actually you probably wouldn't."
Sanduleak chuckled at the thought. Huh teasing, no surprise there she's probably already got someone strung along. Or in her case sung along. Letting out a snicker at his dumb pun, he threw both hands behind his head and turned around to grin at her, showing a small smiley emoticon to make sure it showed through. She did bring up a good point though about the way to contact, she obviously had informants and if she did get to Azoth, there was no way in hell he'd be able to hide his identity.
"That is indeed a pickle, since I suppose the opposite is tru-AH HA GOT IT!"
With a grin and snap of his fingers, he reached into his cloaked and revealed two small discs that had mics. A couple of communication devices that Limen gave to him for missions and the like.
"I'll keep wandering bout here, so if you ever wanna meet up you can use one of these in the area to kinda give me a call if that's cool?"

Sanduleak's words wormed into her brain. It was almost funny how sad that sounded. Then again Pandaemonium wasn't the most touchy feely of groups. Compared to how she had seen some of the Bulwarks at least. Still… surely someone would be upset if something happened to Sanduleak. Even if only a little. She smiled at the emoticon. Her heels clicked on the pavement as she stepped in front of him. She leaned close to his mask. The woman stood there, studying his face.
"You know it's pity I cannot see that expression for real. I'm sure you have a dazzling smile."
As she finished her statement, her mouth formed a small pout. Biting her bottom lip slightly, her eyes widened as his exclamation rang through the still air. Taking a disk she examined it closely. It seemed safe enough, though she would be careful not to leave it anywhere that could be easily identified. She slide it into a belt pouch she kept.
"I'll give you a call then, though I expect you to do the same. Whenever you need me."

Sanduleak had placed a hand over the front of his mask, in an attempt to not see her pout but it failed completely. God he was a flipping sucker for a nice personality and cute 'face'. With a sigh before grinning once again at his own stupidity, he waved a hand over the lower half of his mask, causing it to disappear an reveal a wide smile on a slightly young, and still blushing, face. With a second wave the mask was back on.
"P-please don't talk about that one as well."
God he was being a huge moron just cause a pretty girl was being nice, this was gonna land him in a crap ton of trouble he could see it already.

Siren's pout turned into a wide, almost chesire-esque, grin. It clearly was the look of the cat who got the cream. Having him reveal even part of his face because of a pout was impressive. Supers either guarded their identities jealously or showed them to the world. Having one who so easily removed half his mask was a little bizarre. At list it was to the pinkette. She herself never removed her mask in costume. it was always the first thing on and the last thing off. Oh well, to each their own.
"I knew you'd have a dazzling smile. Put together with the outfit, it makes for a dashing combination."
She listened as he put the mask back on and once again begged her to not talk about that one. So many demands for a stranger. Perhaps she should play with him a little more.
"If you insist. Though if someone hears you make demands like this they might believe there is something between us. You wouldn't want that now...would you?"

Sanduleak had a snicker at that, riiiiight he knew he looked like a dork and was by no means in any way shape or form. But then his shoulders shook slightly as she continued. before his snicker turned into full blown laughter. In terms of teasing she had not crossed the threshold for believablity until this one. He had one hand on his knee and the other was being waved in a weak form of apology.
"s-s-hahaha-sorry it's just...well firstly I could be in a shit ton worse situations than that, secondly holy crap you can do better than me in your sleep and I'm sure there is someone way before a stupid pandaemonium member like me who's caught your actual attention, at a best I got a shot of being something close to a brother or more likely puppy, and finally I don't know, I'd bet my life that you are in fact gorgeous in every single way but you have the most fun personality I've had the pleasure of meeting, but I uh..."
He glanced away at her for a few moments thinking after his fit of laughter. A wide smile and laughter appeared in his mind, along with excitedly running along and offering silly favors for a savior...yeah if he still had anything close to a shot still he'd like to see that through.
"There's an angel still who...if she still doesn't hate me, I'm probably head over heels if I'm being completely stupid and honest...heh a bird and a galaxy, yeah real stupid of me..."
He felt tired though he couldn't tell if it was from laughter or emotional drain of thinking of her. And he quickly rubbed his eyes with the back of his eyes, noting the wet splotches of tears on his gloves. Though that glove quickly became clenched as the info he revealed became clear and he looked up a little harshly this time.
"That info is a non-negotiable demand of silence, if I hear talk of a Siren singing tales about a galaxy and his girl, I will chase after you because I'd sooner die than see her put in any flipping harm because of my idiotic ass."

Siren listened closely as her companion spoke. It saddened her that he didn't believe her words about him. He did have a gorgeous smile. When he mentioned someone who had 'caught her actual attention', she reddened. If it was that obvious to a stranger could Titan...? She rubbed the back of her neck awkwardly at the thought. She really hoped he couldn't. The flush on her face darkened as Sanduleak continued. His words about his bird made her smile as she thought of her own unlikely love story. She looked back to the stars, her eyes distant.
"While it saddens me that my compliment registers as untrue with you, your observation is true. It would seem that you and I are both idiots when it comes to these things."
She paused, a dry laugh leaving her lips. How is it she could admit these feelings to a stranger but not to him. There was really no excuse. As he spoke of his non-negotiable demand of silence she returned her gaze to him.
"I will sing no tales of either of you so no threats are needed. Your bird will have no harm from me."

Sanduleak actually raised an eyebrow at this, she was serious bout the dashing thing?...and he had been right about the someone else thing? Wow, yeah he caught a bit of a blush on her cheeks. It was kinda interesting, and kinda nice, to see the queen flirter actually nervous and have no clue what she doing.
"If you wanna listen to a fellow idiot, just tell him, you'd have to be a bigger idiot than us not to fall for ya if I'm to be completely cause if I wasn't I would and I'm gonna shut up now cause this is more than a little embarrassing and confusing for me."
He took a few breaths after his ramble and glanced up at the stars for a bit, honestly thankful for her agreement to not sing about the girl before a light pink hue glowed from his helmet, didn't need a mirror to know it was happening this time at least.
"By the way, you uh...you actually think I actually think I look good and uh got a shot with her out of curiousity?"
Siren didn't appear to be lying about anything during their conversation, but he still couldn't help and have slight doubt about her comments.
