Ever since that day at Fuchu, things had begun to change. The world had shifted irrevocably and forces were beginning to find their place on one side of a line in the sand. While some chose to abstain, stepping away from the coming violence. There were others that sought to find higher purchase among the ranks of the two blossoming factions. On one side, Hero Society, for all it was worth. The glowing beacon of a new tomorrow. On the other side, Villain Society, a blazing torch of freedom and a celebration of individualist spirit. Or at least, that's how both sides spun themselves.
It was rarely that simple.
Ishtar knew this, of course, but she played her games. She kept the philosophical debate going because it was a sweetly lain honey trap. A dangerous hole that some good men and women in hero society would not be able to resist. She'd poisoned the water with her words, tainting it even before it had a chance to grow. Because of this, even villains were split on their opinion of her. Some believed she was a fanatic while others saw her as a leader. Regardless of what point of view one took, there was one unified agreement. The woman was obsessed with keeping her word. Whether it be a promise of vengeance, protection, or even aid. It mattered little. Her word was her unshaking vow, and her ability to keep a promise was something that some villains were beginning to respect and rely on.
This was one of those times.
She'd promised a reward for the capture of Red Horn. She did not care how it happened and it did not matter what the result was-though the results did amuse her-she would provide the promised reward.
So it was that she found herself sitting in a jazz cafe in the middle of the night. She'd settled into an easy posture, white hair pulled back in a severe ponytail while her villain uniform, freshly pressed, drew eyes now and then. No one paid any mind to the woman with he respirator mask, though, they knew better. She was some sort of villain though they did not immediately know who. She checked her watch, crossing her legs as the music began to play again. She hoped Antonio would be on time, she didn't mind waiting a bit but she wanted to reward him and head home... she missed her daughters and had been far too busy to spend any time with them.
Tonight, she'd dote on them. Pizza, definitely. | TAG WORDS NOTES

If there anything Antonio was, it was punctual. He knew where to meet Ishtar and when. So he decided that, since he got to actually talk to her now, alone. Why not do it in style? Last time they were together in person was the opera. But due to Giovanni, Antonio wasnt able to do shit. Now he was here solo and free to express himself. He drove his expensive red car in style. He dressed in style as well. A black suit, a red shirt. That sort of thing. It was stylish mafia getup. He soon parked and went to the jazz cafe or whatever its called. And soon he arrived and saw Ishtar in person. He walked over to her and greeted her. "Ah a pleasure to see you" he spoke, in a friendly and yet formal tone. He soon took his own seat and wondered how she would start the conversation. He could start. But he would be a bit blunt as he wants his reward money. After all, thats why he did it. He got her Redhorn, arguably the strongest hero this country had. He had no idea what she did with the hero, nor did he care. Again, it was just business and money. But perhaps he could use this chance to get to kow her and see whats so great about her |

you have my attention, dearie
[attr="class","itsover"] Sonya looked up from her seat when he arrived, breaking into a wide smile. He was prompt. Good. She got to her feet only long enough to extend a carefully gloved hand and shake his before sitting back down. She crossed her legs; "A pleasure to see you too, dearie," She offered, gesturing to a waitress who came over and took their orders, a glass of properly diluted absinthe for herself with whatever Antonio would have liked. She tilted her head at him; squinting; "You know, I have to say, I am impressed. You actually talked her into it, didn't you?" She asked, but waved her hand as if she didn't want to actually know one way or another.[break][break]"Regardless, you did as I asked. She and I had a lovely conversation, so thank you," She inclined her head respectfully, she said as the waitress returned with the glasses containing their drinks. "I've been thinking about it, what I'd give you in exchange for your feat..." She tapped her nose; "I suppose money alone isn't enough," She said, tapping her finger on the table; "So I want to give you a freebie as well... one wish, you've certainly heard through the grapevine about how it works so I won't bore you with the rules unless you want to hear them," She offered, leaning back in her seat.[break][break]She eyed him carefully, hmmm...

She stood up and the two shook hands. The two then sat and spoke. Soon a waitress arrived and took their orders. Once she got what each villain wanted to drink, she left. Sonya then tilted her head at him; squinting and speaking. He listened to her how she was impressed in how he talked Redhorn into doing it
"Si. I did. It wasnt that hard." he said casually, but didnt go in to details. Besides its not like Sonya wanted to know
Sonya spoke, he did what she asked. And she had a lovely chat with Redhorn. So she thanked him. Antonio smiled and right on cue, the waitress returned with his booze. Still, he listened to Sonya as he sipped his drink. Sonya meanwhile spoke how she thought what to give him for his feat. She tapped her nose. Strangely, she thought money was not enough. So freebie. A wish. He stopped drinking and leaned towards her
"So you're saying... along with a freebie wish everyone gets. I get a special freebie as well. Which means, I have 2 wishes from my Pale Genie?~" he spoke to her
He had an idea or two on what he wants. And there are 2 things he cares about. But the biggest dillemma. To use and spend the wish or to save it |

[attr="class","itsover1"]Sonya crossed her legs and smirked. Of course it wasn't hard. From the looks of Red Horn at the time it had been a willing transaction. She'd hadn't expected the conversation to go the way it did, though. Sonya cracked a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes. She'd played her game well with the ex-number one. He took a few sips of his drink before finally speaking up and she nodded in response to his question.
"Correct, as long as its within my power to grant, I will grant it," She held up a finger; "I would add that there are limitations, but those are for me to know," She paused and made a face, she thought about how Red Horn had wished for honesty and her gut twisted a little. "My word is... precious to me. If I make a promise, I will keep it," She clasped her hands together, "Regardless of my own predelictions," She glanced toward the waitress who smiled at them from afar and then back at Antonio.
"That said, I'd like to grant at least one of those wishes for you tonight; the money," She drew out a small black device that looked like a smartphone and tapped the screen. "Do you have a card that is connected to a secure bank account?" She smirked; "Or would you prefer cash?"

Ishtar explained that she is serious about her wishes. So he can do anything, but within reason. Granted she wont tell him the limits. But being devislish, he was curious to ask something. But before he said anything. She said she had a wish to fulfil. Money. He smiled as she drew out a small black device.. oh wait it was just a phone.
She asked for a card or cash. "Well, how much are we talking and how many zeroes?" he asked, because if it was cash, was it something for like 1 suitcase or multiple. If it was decent for a suitcase, he can take cash. If its for multiple suitcases then it was up to the card. Once that was resolved, he would try and test his limits on these wishes. Granted, he was gonna try one and save one for later. Indeed that was the dilemma. To save or to use. He knew very well she would do anything to make a wish come true, so that was very valuable. He just didnt know what option was smart. He had wishes in mind. A monetary and a pleasurable wish. He was more hesistant on the pleasurable one due to Narcissa. But he ... no, he shouldnt think spitefully |

[attr="class","itsover1"]Sonya crossed her legs and uncrossed them, leaning back in her chair and running her fingers through her hair. The supervillain in disguise smiled when he asked how much he would be getting; "Five Hundred Million Yen," She said flatly, tapping the table. "I can wire it immediately," She tilted her head and smirked. He shouldn't be surprised. Between the grants from the government, the military contracts, the business deals, the sales to villains and heroes, she was awash in funds. A reward of this substance was nothing. She gestured to her phone. "I can also arrange to have it deposited into an offshore account and I can get you the account number," She said casually, reaching for her own drink and sipping.
She tilted her head as she watched the very small details shift and change in his expression. They weren't a lot to go on, but she'd only met him once before and not observed him for long. It took time for her mind to begin to parse out the details. She would have to watch him for several minutes, maybe even an hour, to get the deeper details since she had a predisposed opinion based on a previous interaction. She placed her hands in her lap and smiled at him, waiting patiently for his wish and his response on the money.

Five hundred million, eh? Well, the number made him smile. He was relatively calm. The number wasnt big and shocking, that suggests he got used to getting those digits for his jobs. Ishtar said that she can wire it to an offshore account right away and he nodded "Please do~" he spoke happily to Sonya or Ishtar or whatever you wanna call her.
He sipped his drink, but also looked at Ishtar. He was very aware that she was observing it. And he'd be a fool if he didnt return the favour and observe her to study her. Once he was done with his drink. He leaned towards her, resting his elbows on the table and spoke to her "My what big eyes you have~ So pink~ So lovely~" he said to her 'flatly' with a smile on his face as if it was nothing. As if it wasnt a big deal what he was doing. Everything was casual to him.
But while he was enjoying his time with the lady. He wondered if he had to go. After all, he had to perfum duties and do other jobs for Giovanni who was his primary Boss. But doing these sidejobs and collecting the wishes was something he could do as well~

[attr="class","itsover1"]Ishtar nodded once, flipping her thumb over her phone, she tapped a few keys and raised her phone to her ear; she paused as she leaned back a little in her seat, only to smile when a voice came over the air. It was faint but there was an accent; he was speaking a foreign language whomever he was. Gruff. She nodded; "Chi ikh egdüütei~" She said, laughing and shaking her head. "No! No! Just a little, I'm still learning..." She held her hand over her mouth and laughed. "Thank you~ Yes... Good," Her voice became even; "Yes. Approve the account and send the routing number and other information to me," She nodded a few more times as the voice on the other end spoke.
"Bayarlalaa~" She said, hanging up.
She looked up at Antonio and broke a wide grin; "I'll have the account information for you in just a moment. It is an account associated with the Mongolian branch of the Furlong Concern," She said, glancing down at her phone when a text came through. She spun her phone around and slid it toward him, winking.
"All the better to find new ways to make you money, my dear~" She said, in reference to her eyes. She bit her lip and grinned. She'd wait for him to copy down the information on the phone and then they'd move on. "Oh before I forget, that's a reusable account. I'll deposit payments in there for now on for you if you find it convenient,"

Oh herro mongorian. Ishtar suddenly spoke mongolian to her phone. Well, she was doing what she had to, so Antonio patiently waited for her to get the payment done. Eventually she hung up and looked with a wide grin. Honestly he had a grin that matched hers. Ishtar said that she will have the account information for him in just a moment. And thus she confirmed his suspicions that she was speaking mongolian, because it is an account associated with the Mongolian branch of the Furlong Concern. He politelly nodded. But soon Ishtar glanced down at her phone when a text came. She then soon spun her phone around and slid it toward him, winking. He smiled to her, well... she is a delightful lady. Little did she know he had plans for her.
"I am sure you will have more ways to give me money~" Antonio spoke to her in a semi flirting and semi teasing way. He had ideas with her. But now he copied the info she gave him and thus they moved on. She added its a reusable account and that she will deposit payments in there. Antonio smiled "How deligtful"
He then approached her and took her hand and kissed it. Quirk or no Quirk, even if it would sting him, he would easily heal "Ah Lady Ishtar. It has been quite the delight spending this time with you. Now I must ask. How busy are you today? Do you need to go or...?"
Indeed, can they spend time together or nah
