A tiny part of Aradia wanted to agree with Bill, sure he was right about [i]some[/i] stuff, but she wasn't going to readily admit that. She let him go on, unable to conjure up any retorts and just hoped she'd do good enough next mission as to not warrant another meeting. And while slightly insulted that he thought she needed a partner, she couldn't really blame him. Aradia tried to look at the bright side, at least now she could better learn about one of her co-workers. Giving Bill a curt nod, Aradia then left the room, hovering down the stairs silently and towards her new partner. She caught up with him quickly, trailing behind him and Harrison waiting for an opportunity to interject. Once the briefest of silences passed between the pair, Aradia swerved herself into the conversation. She appeared at Buck's side, greeting him warmly before continuing, [color=9932cc]"Just came down to tell you that I'm your new partner, can't wait till our next mission,"[/color] While her words were friendly and her tone kind, Aradia was inspecting every inch of Buck, trying to deduce whether he was going to be pleasant to work with or not. Her sharp eyes darted from ever seam in his clothes to the way he held himself, though she covered it up with small gestures and a light-hearted mood. [@redbaron1234]
