Lizzy sat leaning forward in a simple wooden chair, her long braid draped down the front of her armor. She'd left the helmet on the table once she was sure it was going to be a while before California came to himself, but she had left his helmet on so that Sigma could continue to monitor his human companion. One mission had turned her life

Lightly grasping the cup, he took it from her hands and held it close, breathing in it's scent. It had been a long time since he's had good coffee. "Partners aren't problems with me, even if I did...well...appear a bit "come-near-me-you-die" in the beginning. Didn't stop Wash or York though." he said, mind wondering back to the old days, slowly bringing his hand up, stopping at the last minute as he forgot about his helmet.
"Still," he continued, taking the helmet off,"Doesn't mean I'm against partnership. So, what's your decision. Deal? Or no deal?" He held his hand out, waiting.

"Call me Cal or Josh. I want to save people the responsibility of spelling out my entire name. So what about you? What can you tell me about yourself?" Cal inquired,leaning back in his chair and tapping his fingers against the table. He wanted...needed to know more about the person he was going to be working with from now on.

"Obviously, I don't use my state name when putting myself on the market, and you may want to consider an alias, or a return to your old name as well. Helps with keeping them from tracking you." She shook her head. "Not that I'm sure they don't keep tabs on me, of course. 'Sky' isn't too far off from my name. If they really looked, they'd find me ( ... )
