Purely off the record, Nephele is really beginning to look up to Pepper. She was suspicious at first, as she is of everyone she's worked for, and very cautious about the possibility of revealing too many Allomantic-secrets. But, hell, the woman works with/against vampires, so that's less of a concern now. She appreciates that Pepper recognizes and values her abilities, that her age has never been an issue, and is just as happy to have a job where people won't actually be shooting to kill. She's very impressed with Pepper's business acumen and people skills, especially since her employees seem to actually know her. While she might not know that Pepper was a thief herself, Neph is beginning to guess at it, which makes her a once-colleague who went on to do damn well for herself. That's very encouraging!
Current: Neph is still somewhat shy around Oni; she's had a quasi-father figure once before in her life, but no one ever made an effort to be a mother-figure. So while she enjoys/wants that sort of bond, she's at a loss as to how to reciprocate. She's still not sure how she ended up in the wedding, and has learned to just sort of go with the flow where Oni and her demands are concerned
( ... )
Given that they haven't canonically met yet (We have GOT to stage a trip to the Rat for dinner. Seriously.) this may be a bit vague...
Neph will likely find Anika to be fun to be around, especially once she learns the trick to her quieter sense of humor. Ani is the second touch-oriented mutant Neph has met, which fascinates her...but she's wary of the gift itself, much as she is Anya's power-negating ability. That kind of crazy tracking ability is one of her worst nightmares. On a purely meta note, it might be interesting to see if she can block it with Copper...
Better watch out, as Neph thinks Han's crush on Anika is ADORABLE and will aid-and-abet at every opportunity. Whether Han likes it or not.
Oni/mun told me ooc, believe me, it'll be a surprise for her.
And yes, they haven't met canonically on TN yet; however, there is that wedding cake thread on Oni's LJ, and the OTHER thread they are in together, which shall remain nameless. Can that be used, as a basis to presume that they now know each other?
Believe me, Anika is becoming more and more wary of the gift herself. Must get the girl a set of gloves, damn it! As for the copper? I think they should try it, and most likely it will scatter Anika's abilities so that she can't pinpoint Neph any more, but will give her a general range perhaps? ("She's in Russia. Russia? St Petersburg I think. Where in St Petersburg? I DON'T KNOW!!)
Oh, they totally do ^^ I would just love to get to do an introduction, at some point. But sometimes RP moves along at such speeds that certain things have to be left inferred.
*nods* That's what I was thinking. Copper and Bronze are her two best skills, but they're more of a general magic seeking/blocking, so I wouldn't think they'd be 100% effective against Anika's metaphysical nose. ("Russia is a very large country, Ani!" "I KNOW.")
