Finally, she had some attention and she wasn't getting called a whore. A nice change of pace from her desk job where she was an invisible drone clicking away at a keyboard. Plucking out an emerald, she held it up to the light above her, ignoring his comment for a brief moment before tossing the little gem on the floor of the sitting room. "Funny, you spend so long trying to get me and you'd rather the cops bring me in instead of you." Her blue eyes twinkled as they flicked over to him, the right corner of her full lips curled up into an unmistakable smirk. "I underestimated the fund I'd have with you birdbrain." She said sharply, an insult she had called him one too many times over their years of playing cat and mouse with one another. "But I'm not here to be arrested." She said as she pulled out a Ruby and held it up to the light. "Oh wait." With that she reached into her purse and pulled out a small device. After pressing the button, the electric devices went out, including all mobile devices. "There, now we can talk before you decide to turn me into the police." She spun the device in her hand before sliding it back into her purse and tucking it between her thighs for good measure. "Electronic scrabbler. Nothing electronic will work so unless you're going to send a pidgin... Or an eagle." She said eying the young man who just walked down the stairs. "I'm here to chat." She said finishing her thought as she pulled out a pearl and instantly threw it to the ground in disguise. "There's a mad man running around town. Crazier than you and more dangerous than me. The way I see it..." She examined a topaz before giving it a shrug and throwing it to the ground. "Neither one of us want to see anyone get hurt. I have a lot more connections than you do around town, and since I didn't grow up in a mansion. I know every inch of this town like the back of my hand. Between my skills, my brains, my connections and your..." She was examining a sapphire in the light as her brow pushed together, "Costume." attempting to give him some reasoning of why she'd need his help. "And want to keep people safe, we could stop him." Before he could say anything she kept going. "If you are willing to hear me out, take a seat. If not you can take your best chance at when I turn back on the electricity that your video footage will still be there of me punching your butler. I think the police and press would most likely believe you tried to bribe a low level employee with jewels to preform tasks she wasn't willing to do. Who's the police going to believe? The innocent blonde who was taken to your house for interview for a new position and was instead nearly forced to preform call-girl acts or the man that the press has been dying to slip up and cause some sort of riot about?" With that she threw the sapphire onto the ground. "Shall we talk? Or will you take your chances?" She questioned as she pulled out another ruby.
