A specific kind of vibrating. With a grin she pulled out the device to see who was looking to hire. Mhmm. Pale Horse. She liked their jobs, normally, and the promise of a decent payout was definitely up her alley. She waited a few moments, however, because the CDA practically always made a counter offer. Sometimes it was more lucrative for her personal skill set. Mostly it was crap, though, in her opinion. But a job was a job. Sure enough her phone vibrated again with a counter offer. Same pay, either way, but the CDA was offering 20% up front. Things just got interesting. She had a choice this time. Attack or defend, the money was the same. But.... Having the advantage of defending from a secure location was the better option for her. Plus that 20% up front was a little more tempting. She tapped to accept the job from the CDA, pulling herself to her feet and pulling out her single earbud. Best not to make it clear who she'd accepted in a situation like this. Slinging Lisa over her shoulder, she went to get ready for departure.
