Alexa shifted uncomfortably. It was uncommon that she was faced with such open flattery, and she wasn't sure how she felt about it. Still, Alexa had asked the question first, and it was really only fair that she answer it herself, as well. She struggled for words briefly, as she debated how to go about this. "Well... Like I said before, I'm Aria's tool. For just about anything, I guess," Alexa drifted off weakly. [i]Dammit, girl, shake it off. You've been through tougher shit than a flirty asari,[/i] Alexa sighed inwardly. Ironically, Alexa felt like the feeling of being uncomfortable made her more uncomfortable. Being uncomfortable was not a state of being Alexa was used to. Alexa straightened her posture up. It was all in the body language.

"You know how she is," Alexa shrugged, no longer showing signs of discomfort. "Aria's been my boss for six years now. I've been her right hand for about five and a half of them. I guess it helps that I was trained to follow orders without question. Not exactly my intended purpose when the Eclipse broke me in as a kid, but Aria knows how to work everything her way."

Alexa glanced at Ghost. She shook her head. Whatever he was doing in his little corner, she didn't really care. He wasn't openly a threat. Her attention reverted back to Kali. "It's funny. Sometimes I have to remind myself that the reason I signed with Aria was to save my own skin. That my undying loyalty to her hasn't always been around. That there was once a time," Alexa leaned in close, and began to whisper, "that she had to drag my sorry ass to her bed and I didn't willingly follow." She grinned suggestively, leaning back away from Kali. She gave a low chuckle, glancing at Ghost again. He was up to something, but it wasn't enough to make Alexa want to bother him again.
