Carmen nodded toward Aethion. [color=bb0066] "I see... Still allowing that hate to fester won't bode well for him." [/color]

She looked over toward Edward entering and raised an eyebrow. [color=bb0066] Another FNG? "Yes. That man just left. Who are you, if you don't mind my asking?" [/color]

"Indeed." Aethion agreed. "I only hope that we can prepare sufficiently." He yawned, arching his back and stretching.

"Well, if I am to fight tomorrow, then I will go to rest, and prepare." He said to Laguna and Carmen. "I will see you tomorrow."

Carmen nodded toward Aethion before giving him a bow. [color=bb0066] "Rest well." [/color]

Turning toward Edward, she blinked a bit at the hologram. She turned back up to Edward with blank eyes. [color=bb0066] "Your employer's a cat?" [/color]

Aethion returned Carmen's bow both to her and Laguna before turning and strolling off, brassy armour gleaming under the lights as he went.

Carmen tilted her head a bit. [color=bb0066] "So she augmented you and forcing you to pay for the operation through labor? Or did she cut off your various parts for the sake of experimentation?" [/color]

Looking back at the hologram, she shrugged. [color=bb0066] "Excuse me, catgirl. I have a small hatred of your kind, please excuse any racist remarks I may make on reaction." [/color]

Carmen sighed a bit toward Cat. [color=bb0066] "The reason I said that was to see if you'd be the bigger party and ignore any racist statements I'd accidentally say to you. Old habits die hard, but I was going to attempt to refrain from saying anything offensive. Obviously, you didn't take that route........ Disappointing." [/color]

Turning to Edward, she nodded. [color=bb0066] "I see, that was rather kind of her... though shit pay isn't something I'd wish on anyone. May I ask more about this 'incident'?" [/color]

Carmen just paused for a moment, dumbfounded at Edward saying :D before facepalming herself. [color=bb0066] "...Did you just say 'colon D'? ...What does that even mean!?!" He's even worse than that fox with her incessant babbling... [/color]

Taking a deep breath, she recomposed herself and then looked a little lost again when Ed mentioned comicon. [color=bb0066] "...Comicon? I- Is that some sort of human ritual? I wouldn't know anything about it." [/color]

She shrugged toward Cat's statement. [color=bb0066] "I'm used to people hating me for being a succubus. It comes with the race. And honestly, I get paid quite a bit for being in the army... but it never feels like enough." [/color]

Carmen seemed lost as Edward explained everything to her. [color=bb0066] "...So it's like a masquerade...?" [/color]

Turning to Cat, the succubus seemed to flick her tail nervously around. [color=bb0066] "I'd rather not talk about that right now." [/color]

The door into the lounge opened and James walked in, lighting a cigarette as he did so. He held the door open with his foot and Aethion walked in behind him, in full armour and carrying his helmet under one arm. He nodded his thanks to James who grunted a response, blowing out a puff of smoke before heading to the bar.

Carmen simply nodded toward Cat's statement before scratching the back of her head in response to Edward. [color=bb0066] "I'm aware of the existence of computers... but I don't use them myself." [/color]

Seeing Aethion and James, she gave both of them a small wave.

James grabbed a can from the bar and raised it to Carmen in greeting, then cracked it open and took a swig.

"Hey Carmen. Haven't seen you around in a while."

Aethion bowed to Carmen and straightened up again, flicking back the long coppery hair apparently common to the men of his house.

"Good morning. Carmen, is it? I forgot to ask your name last night."

Carmen smiled toward James. [color=bb0066] "That's because you never come around here, James." [/color]
Turning to Aethion, she returned the bow. [color=bb0066] "Yes. Lt.Gen Carmen St.Luna. Nice to officially meet you, Aethion." [/color]

As Edward spoke of google, she looked completely lost to the point her tail arced into the shape of a question mark.

"Ah, I drop in and out. Place like this, you don't think I'd hang around all day without making time to drink a bit, do you?" James chuckled as he spoke. "Truth be told, it's easy to get kind of stir-crazy in here. I have so much spare time now, I don't know what to do with it. I clean, reassemble and generally mess around with my guns so much without even firing them, I might wear the parts out."

"Ah, a high title. You must have been fighting for many years." Aethion replied to Carmen. "Forgive me, but... you do not look like someone who has spent a long time in battle."

"Heh. Some of us are just that good, kid." James joked.

Carmen rubbed her arm a bit in response to Aethion. [color=bb0066] "Well... That's only due to disguise magic. If I were to show my true form... well, you'd be inclined to disagree almost instantly." [/color]

She nodded in response to James. [color=bb0066] "Yes... we're basically in a cage, that tends to make staying sane difficult." [/color]

Carmen took the laptop and tilted her head a bit. [color=bb0066] "...Uh... Help would be appreciated..." [/color]

"Yeah. Doesn't help when half the people in this place are like something out of a webcomic writer's fever dream. Speaking of which..." James moved over beside Carmen so he could see the laptop from the front and whistled appreciatively.
"Nice. I haven't seen one of these in donkey's years."

"Oh. I... I am sorry, I did not mean to make you feel uncomfortable." Aethion stammered, embarrassed again. "It is a very well crafted illusion, at least. I had no idea that it was magic, and I have seen Illusion magic many times before."

Carmen smiled a small bit toward Aethion. [color=bb0066] "It's no problem, you wouldn't have known. You seem ready to fight yourself." [/color]

She nodded toward James before getting the basics of operating the computer. [color=bb0066] "Hmmm... Yes.. I think I understand. What's next?" [/color]

Aethion smiled back and nodded.
"If you still wish to fight, then yes I am. I will wait until you are finished with... whatever that is, and are ready to begin."

"Wonder if there's an internet connection here."

Carmen followed Edward's instructions and tilted her head as she made it to the results page. [color=bb0066] "So this is like... searching through a library... Interesting..." [/color]

She looked over toward Aethion and nodded. [color=bb0066] "I'll finish somewhat soon. This device is... interesting to say the least..." [/color]
