Thomas's eyes glazed over as Thyra professed her hope that they hadn't been camping for too long, staring off into the middle distance while he took one final drag on his cigarette before it became a worthless nub. "Ha. Yeah."
Bianca let the other woman ramble on, listening in polite silence until the one-armed berserker finally reached an answer - and that put a smile on her face. "No, you would not need to accompany us on stakeouts, as these are a temporary measure for finding potential recruits. An appropriate codename can be chosen for you, or you can make a suggestion - either way, I will be the one to approve it." The questions about how she kept her clothes so clean out in the woods got another one of those peculiar laughs from the president, but not a real answer.
"The goal of my company is simple, Ms. Thyra. I aim to provide bounty hunters with a bit of stability - resources they can depend upon, allies to cooperate with, and some guaranteed pay. In exchange, some amount of the bounties you bring in will go to the Company, but you have my word that it is an entirely reasonable amount," she explained. "I would want to bring you in as an Agent, which would afford you just as much freedom in your operations as you enjoy now. While we are getting our start, I am afraid all I can promise is to cover the costs of transportation, as we are currently in the process of setting up contracts to have Company ships begin construction...""Bi, you're getting distracted."
"Hardly, Mr. Hot Chocolate," Bianca admonished, but something about the subtle reset seemed to get her back on track anyway. "We can discuss more about the position when we get you and your prize back to town. If you would like, I can arrange for some clothes to be tailored for you."
