Antoine watched as Howard entered, and casually increased her profile and stepped forward ever so slightly to make herself easier to see, since she was comfortable enough with Howard. She stood up and took a seat near him, looking over and nodding at his statements concerning the newbies. After a moment, she said in her usual, soft voice "They're still with Imran. From what I can tell, they're just more SF grunts." She stretched her arms slightly and allowed a soft yawn to escape, so seemingly innocent yet so at odds with the pistol that one could see sticking from her boot. Glancing over at the area as well, she said with a giggle "You look really fuzzy Howard, almost like a bear." To demonstrate, and have a little fun at his expense, she stood up and walked over. She hugged him and giggled again, saying "Just like my teddy bear as a little girl." She then released him and stepped back, adding "Though, your far more lethal than a teddy bear, Mon Ami." With that, she sat back down and commented "Do you think the new blood will be able to blend in with us? It isn't often that anyone takes to Scimitar really well."
