Aria. Rune filed the name away, repeating it to herself to work on remembering it. A face, a pistol, a monster Rune could remember forever. But names was something she was horrid at remembering. Aria. Arr-ee-ah There. Cemented forever. Or at least for a while. It was a flaw probably left over from doing twelve years of public school all online from the road. Handles and avatars and chatrooms didn't exactly lend itself to linking names to faces very easily.
The comment about interesting pests was met with an impish sort of smile and nod, but Rune didn't elaborate. However she could.
Instead she turned back to Thalia at the mention of a contract. Of course Thalia would need such a thing, but Rune had no idea how to set it up. "I have my Wallet," she started, and bent over to pull the piece of tech out of her bag. Of course there were other nifty things in there, but took care to make sure present company didn't see them: namely the extra switchblade and small caliber handgun.
The tech was hardly top of the line and a couple years old, but Rune got it powered up easily enough. She offered Thalia a small deposit consistent with what they discussed earlier and made arrangements for transfer and future contact information. "Thanks again, Thalia!" She said once it was all settled. She hoped the delay was enough for Aria to feel a bit better, and flashed her a smile. "If you're ready?" She got up and chugged the rest of her coffee and pitched the cup to a nearby trashcan.
