The Business Spark

[Kung Seilois]

"Quite the opposite. I'd prefer you to feel comfortable. If keeping it on makes you feel such then please, don't let me stop you." Seilois nearly stood when she stood up taking it as the sign to leave, but when she moved to a nearby window and opened it; he leaned back in his seat as it seemed she merely needed fresh air... perhaps it wasn't just him that smelt something odd in the room.

"That sounds like a fair enough price. Please thank your...acquaintance for me. I'm very appreciative of their help." Seilois gave a small nod to show he understood, "I hope you don't mind working along side someone."

Seilois waited a few seconds to let that sink in. Someone else, "Who would that be?" Seilois asked placing his hand on his right knee which was still crossed over his left, it seemed she was going to hire him, and if so, he would have to inform her on a few things based upon his interest in keeping her protected, but working with someone? None of the other mercs struck him as reliable or experienced.

Alice glanced down at the clip board, flipping the page over delicately as she scanned the black and white print. "Kyle Jerhal." She let the page fall loosely back into place. "Rather young and inexperienced but I'm sure he'll come in handy sooner or later. Someone ought to give him a chance." She shot him a smile, and a glance that said it wasn't up for debate. "But he can be discussed later. For now, is there anything you'd like to ask me?"

"Rather young and inexperienced but I'm sure he'll come in handy sooner or later. Someone ought to give him a chance." Seilois raised an eyebrow not sure who Kyle was, but he had a vague feeling he knew, "The kid?" He asked somewhat amused, before his voice took on a serious tone dropping the slight hitch from being amused moments before, "From now on, you are my client, as such, I have no real say over what you chose to do, but I will suggest you do not get caught up in a romantic entanglement with the kid. It would put both of you in jeopardy," he advised.

"But he can be discussed later. For now, is there anything you'd like to ask me?" Seilois leaned back in his chair and tapped the bottom of his helmet with his finger tips, "I need to know if you have any enemies or habits that would... put you in danger. I will also warn that you... be careful with the man who asked me to help you. Men like him, they do not do this for a voice. He is going to want something from you. At some time. Some where, he is going to try and cash his credits in. I doubt you will be... fond of what he may demand, and as someone who has to maintain your safety, I advise you to be careful of those you meet."

Alice couldn't help but let an amused grin touch the corners of her lips. "Thank you for your concern, Seilois, but I have no intention of involving myself romantically with him. Though I did enjoy the cheap thrill is flattery provided." She followed with a delicate chuckle, that faded into non-existence as he questioned her habits. Her gaze moved to her lap, where she seemed to take a moment to inspect perfectly tended nails. "I have no enemies, no disconcerting habits or anything really to be concerned about. Though I am planning a Galaxy wide tour which I'm sure will cause some problems. Of course, I'll be paying extra for toting you all around the Galaxy." Hopefully the subject was changed quickly enough for him not to notice her hesitance.

"Thank you for your concern, Seilois, but I have no intention of involving myself romantically with him. Though I did enjoy the cheap thrill is flattery provided." Seilois bowed his head slightly, he had said his piece and now she could do whatever she wanted. He would not stop her from flirting, not flirting, or accepting a romantic liaison as he was responsible for keeping her alive, what she did outside of that was not something he could, or would, try to control.

I have no enemies, no disconcerting habits or anything really to be concerned about. Though I am planning a Galaxy wide tour which I'm sure will cause some problems. Of course, I'll be paying extra for toting you all around the Galaxy," Seilois raised an eyebrow behind his helmet. Everyone had something. For him, it was greed. Everyone had some kind of cripplingly flaw or desire that got them into trouble, but hers may have been small enough to just not want to say, if so, he would respect her privacy.

"Sounds interesting, I have never been on such a tour before," Seilois said, and looked the room over once, "When did you wish to start?"

Alice tore her glance away from her manicured cuticles to smile gently at Seilois. "That hasn't been decided yet. Unfortunately my manager likes to spend a lot of time fussing over nothing. Not a lot gets done round here without hours of pre-planning." To this Alice let out a heavy, exasperated sigh. She was bored of waiting, that much showed on her face. Regardless, she reminded herself she wasn't alone, and returned a rather pleasant smile back to the corners of her lips. "Regardless, I'll let you know as soon as I do. Though it shouldn't be too long now."

"That hasn't been decided yet. Unfortunately my manager likes to spend a lot of time fussing over nothing. Not a lot gets done round here without hours of pre-planning." The pain of fame. That was why Seilois preferred his job from the shadows were few recognized him, and the ones that did tended to leave him alone or wish to offer him money for his services. He never had to spend hours planning out his travel destinations.

"Regardless, I'll let you know as soon as I do. Though it shouldn't be too long now." Seilois gave a small nod, "Of course. I took the liberty of giving your agent... or was it your manage? The comline to my ship should they need to contact me, until then, I have business on Tatooine. I may take the boy with me to hunt a dragon. See how good he is."

Seilois paused before standing, "Was there any other questions you wanted to ask before I leave?"

Alice smiled toward her new business partner. After all, there was no point in calling him an employee. There would be a personal relationship between the two men and Alice in a short while to come. She stood from her chair, offering her hand out to Seilois. "Nothing that I can immediately think of. But I'll contact you if anything pops up. If you ask for Kyle's comm details they'll be given to you when you leave." Alice kept the smile on her face as she spoke. "It was a pleasure meeting you. I look forward to working with you.

"Nothing that I can immediately think of. But I'll contact you if anything pops up. If you ask for Kyle's comm details they'll be given to you when you leave." Seilois gave a small nod to show his thanks. It would make finding the kid easier as he was reasonably sure the kid had yet to develop a reputation, so finding him would not have been easy and would have taken more time then he would have enjoyed spending.

"It was a pleasure meeting you. I look forward to working with you," Pushing himself to his feet, "Likewise, Ms. Shaw, I shall await your call."

Interview over, Seilois moved to the door and stepped back out into the hallway, he needed to get moving to Tatooine... he had a Dragon to kill, and it's eyes to harvest for a.... odd client.
