Her advanced polymer case was shining beneath the formal business button-up that she continued to pull at. Her gaze kept meeting Alice's before falling quickly, only to rise again and meet Alice's static-plagued globes. Alice took a deep breath and turned her gaze from the synth to drop back into listening, sheathed blade on her lap continuing to poke the elderly man in the business plugsuit next to her. Her brow furrowed as much of the business and administrative jargon flew over her head. Her face lacked features aside from eyebrows and a pair of eyes. Waves of digital snow and minute chroma noise rippled over where she should have had mouth and nose, and the silhouette of her skin wavered with VHS crosstalk. The nature of her contract was... vague. Her purpose on this new job was something she needed to inquire about but the prospect of being able to do the work she loved for someone in such a position of power excited her. Already, she was beginning to envision her duties as an elite bodyguard for the upper echelon of society, or as captain of her own private security firm. The income prospects made her little heart race. The meeting of the suits and the scum ended promptly, the many in attendance beginning to shuffle and move from their seats. Alice had risen, ignoring the yearning electric stare from the synthwoman to push her way through the surge of people trying to exit. She had a burning question to ask her new employer. Something that her boss could answer to her right now. [i][b]"[color=f7941d]Bossman! Got a question. This contract we got. If I'm working with you now, what do y'want me t'be doing? Bodyguard, all stuck to your side-like? I'll make sure any hand y'shake does it under my cutter, easy. Just say th'word.[/color]"[/b][/i]
