[b]Alicia Hayden[/b] As the battle raged on behind them, Alicia found herself confronted with the 'friend' that Penny had brought to meet then, something that she wish would have been mentioned during the meeting when they had been setting all this up. It was another complication, as if there hadn't been enough of those already. Still, sh didn't look to be immediately hostile, so that was good. Fortunately Suwako asked the question for her, and Thalia provided some identification fairly quickly. The name didn't ring any bells, so at the very least they weren't sharing company with someone notorious in a manner that would have made things even worse than it was already. She held where she was, a hand resting on her hip as she regarded the monster girl. There was the nagging sensation that they were being goaded, but in comparison to the encounter they had just had this was fairly tame. Still, she should probably interject before Suwako took that shot. Looking to Penny, she nodded. "The go-between idea sounds good, at least until we can get some confirmation from the Beacon on whether she's to be included in our arrangement." Once they had that worked out, then they'd have a more appropriate response ready the next time. Glancing back towards the hospital, she returned to the others. "For now I think we can go back to our normal lives. Penny, I'll be in touch tomorrow, okay?" It was enough time to talk it out with Beacon, before relaying her the decision. With that said sh waited to see if anyone else had a problem with it. [@Vocab][@Shifter_Master][@Hammerman][@t2wave]
