[right][color=1462ba][i][h2]Mariette[/h2][/i][/color][/right] Mariette was momentarily distracted by the sudden appearance of the squirrel-girl. Though, after her appearance, Mariette was also pretty quick to look away from her, with the assumption that she would be introduced to the matter by the others. Herself, she was in the midst of a conversation with Alicia, after all. Mariette gripped the phone, slightly annoyed at being forced to catch it out of the air and then extract it from the wrapped-up state while also making sure not to drop her bunny, but when she finally had it in hand her lips pulled the slightest as she started pressing on it, exploring the options. Then, Alicia turned and told the rest that Beacon was going to send a force. Mariette gained a real, actual smile. [color=186cc7]‘Wonderful. Then, assuming someone can take the role of briefing new arrivals on the details of the situation,’[/color] -she said gesturing towards the squirrel-girl with the phone-holding hand- [color=186cc7]‘and that Eli’s finishing up the options for recruits…’[/color] -she proceeded to gesture at her own underling. She was honestly actually somewhat excited by this joint venture. Could they actually amass a force that would be able to contend with Justine von Visceral? She longed to see it. [color=186cc7]‘Shall we get started?’[/color] Feeling pretty good about herself, Mariette now glanced on the phone she held in her hand, her other hand still clutching a stuffed bunny. [color=186cc7]‘… How do I find my number?’[/color] she asked. [@BrokenPromise][@Majoras End][@Card Captor][@Shifter_Master][@Hammerman][@DarkwolfX37]
