"I’m surprised you didn’t come here sooner.”
It’s not difficult to spot a… sister in design, so to speak. No matter how well made. And she is– so very well made. Even if she weren’t the right hand ( pet ) of their architect and ruin, Mariette would know. She likes to think she would know, away from the context of this solemn, forsaken place. The lines of her face–
( Some jawlines are made for sitting. On. )
“Why?”
It feels so fancy, she might actually be a little uncomfortable.
“Don’t pretend this place isn’t well above my paygrade.”
Her pleasure house is on the ground. In the dirt. In the grime. In the stink of LA’s streets. Far below– they’re ants, really– here.

“I can’t rely on my memories.”
“No shit.”
The bar is quiet. Dingy. The crusty feeling on the bartop is only there because it’s seen decades and decades of spills and paint jobs and refinishings. It’s clean. It’s a six of one, half dozen of the other kind of place. Sometimes she’s here to make money. Sometimes she’s here to spend it.
Tonight? Tonight, she just wants a drink.

Peering at the woman a few stools down, Mari takes stock of her. Generic. Pretty in a weird way but not that memorable. Who is when she’s slumped over a bar talking into a bottle of bottom shelf whiskey?
( Can’t say I haven’t been there myself. )
Lifting her own beer, she points the neck in the brunette’s direction. Her own short, blonde hair falls in a razored shag across her forehead. “’s called drinking to forget. Cheers.”

❝ We’ve got a lot in common. ❞
There’s that soft sound. Soft and harsh at once. A snort, even. 
Distrust sprinkles around the edges, something just enough to prick the edges of her senses, but it doesn’t hide the way her lips play up at the corners. Just so. Blink and you miss it. 
( Hey, speaking of holograms… )
“That’s what you’re going to call it?”
A genuine quirk of an eyebrow. Something like curiosity flits across blue eyes. She supposes she’s real enough. ( Or is she? ) Not the first Joi she’s known. Not the last. Never will be. Not in this business. Carnality. The dirty work men can’t live without but won’t lower themselves to do.
Pleasure in skin and bone– pleasure in 1s and 0s.
Maybe Joi’s not that far off.
“But I guess we do.”

“That’s no way to treat a friend.”
“I–”
Arms drape over shoulders. There is no space here. No space– No space– No space. Drawn. Close like this, fingers toying with the fine, shorn hair at the nape of his neck. A cheeky smile, round blue eyes. 
“Know all about how to treat you, friend.”
The expression juuuuust sharpens at the corner of her mouth. 
“Is that what we are now? Friends?”
He’s the best of it, she reasons. Them. What they are for now. That is nothing to say of what they will be. But, for now, he is the best.

“I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe.”
It’s an energy.
Must be electric. ( Must be. ) Electromagnetic. Attractive in the most literal sense. There’s a plaza full of bodies, packed like sardines ( what are sardines, anymore? ) and stinking of LA rot, but something about this one says ‘Try here first. Make a buck. Hustle this.’ Encoded to find the mark. Please the mark.
Transaction complete.
“You like to win, and we haven’t even started playing yet.”
It’s a call from over the shoulder. Enticement. Intrigue.
Do you hear that? Turn your head and look. Follow with your eyes. Are you attracted? Pulse, pupils, skin temperature. Reaction. 
Mariette rounds the body at the table ( always so many bodies at these outdoor markets and cantinas, always a pleasure house nearby ) and smiles. It’s something a little clumsy ( purposely ) and innocent. Like a girl’s. A girl pushing 6′4″ in a hot pink, fuzzy duster and pale yellow crop top, shorn edges exposing pale pale pale skin. No pants. Legs so long, your neck has to tilt. Bare. Designed perfectly. 
One hand trails broad shoulders and the other pushes soft ( in color not texture, that’s a little oily ) pink hair from her eyes. 
“You’ve been off-world.” 
A statement. Not a question. White teeth.
Are you attracted yet?

Blade Runner Roleplay Ask Meme
The following are all quotes from the 1982 film Blade Runner, some slightly modified to fit as roleplay starters. Change the pronouns, punctuation, spelling, etc however it suits you or conveys your character’s manner of speech. 
“I guess you’re through, huh?”
“Quite an experience to live in fear, isn’t it?”
“The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long - and you have burned so very, very brightly.”
“Look at you: you’re the Prodigal Son; you’re quite a prize!”
“I’ve done… questionable things.”
“I don’t know why _____ saved my life.”
“Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got?”
“All I could do was sit there and watch him die.”
“It doesn’t make any difference what desert, it’s completely hypothetical.”
“Maybe you’re fed up. Maybe you want to be by yourself. Who knows?”
“What do you mean, I’m not helping?”
“It seems you feel our work is not a benefit to the public.”
“May I ask you a personal question?”
“I had in mind something a little more radical.”
“What…what seems to be the problem?”
“Death; ah, well that’s a little out of my jurisdiction.”
“She’s beginning to suspect, I think.”
“I have had people walk out on me before, but not when I was being so charming.”
“How long do I live?”
“Painful to live in fear, isn’t it?”
“Six! Seven! Go to Hell or go to Heaven!”
“Go to Hell!”
“Good! That’s the spirit!”
“I was quit when I come in here, _____, I’m twice as quit now.”
“Stop right where you are!”
“You know the score, pal.”
“No choice, huh?”
“No choice, pal.”
“Wake up! Time to die!”
“Do you love me?”
“Not very sporting to fire on an unarmed opponent.”
“I thought you were supposed to be good.”
“Aren’t you the ‘good’ man?”
“C'mon, _____. Show me what you’re made of.”
“If we don’t find help soon, _____ hasn’t got long to live. We can’t allow that.”
“Will you help us?”
“We need you, _____. You’re our best and only friend.”
“I’m not in the business. I am the business.”
“This is a bad one, the worst yet.”
“I love you.”
“Have you felt yourself to be exploited in any way?”
“I mean, did…did you do, or…or were you asked to do anything lewd…or unsavory, or…or, otherwise repulsive to your…your person, huh?”
“Describe in single words only the good things that come into your mind about your mother.”
“Let me tell you about my mother.”
“I’m surprised you didn’t come here sooner.”
“It’s not an easy thing to meet your maker.”
“Can the maker repair what he makes?”
“We’ve got a lot in common.”
“This sector is closed to ground traffic. What are you doing here?”
“Nothing is worse than having an itch you can never scratch!”
“Shakes? Me too. I get 'em bad. It’s part of the business.”
“Do you trust me?”
“Got the wrong guy, pal.”
“Tell him I’m eating.”
“I can’t rely on my memories.”
“Put your hands on me.”
“They don’t advertise for killers in the newspaper.”
“Gosh, you’ve really got some nice toys here.”
“He’s a goddamned one-man slaughterhouse, that’s what he is.”
“Are you for real?”
“I think, _____, therefore I am.”
“What if I go north? Disappear. Would you come after me? Hunt me?”
“I trust you.”
“I owe you one…”
“Okay, bad joke…I made a bad joke.”
“Go home, okay? No, really — I’m sorry, go home.”
“There’s only two of us now.”
“Then we’re stupid and we’ll die.”
“That’s no way to treat a friend.”
“Talk about Beauty and the Beast — she’s both.”
“Proud of yourself, little man?”
“C'mon, _____. I’m right here, but you’ve gotta shoot straight!”
“Must get lonely here.”
“That was irrational of you…not to mention unsportsmanlike.”
“Someone was there.”
“I’d like to ask you a few questions.”
“Your licenses in order, pal?”
“Drink some for me, huh, pal?”
“That isn’t really my kind of place.”
“I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe.”
“All those moments will be lost in time… like tears in rain…”
“Time to die.”
