She raises a hand. Ahh yes. Roommates. Perfect.

"Hello hello," the assassin says, without looking up.

He decides to take the liberty of taking a seat.

"So, when'd ya get here?"

"Just a few da-- holy shit."

The older woman had finally looked over at the guy and shock crossed her feature for a moment. She was the spy type, used to dealing with the small and the lean.

This guy looked like he could crush her.

"Ah. Sorry. Days. A few days. I'm Agent Campbell."

Get ahold of yourself, girl. Professional. Be nice, dammit! And take your hand off the hilt of that blade under your pants.

Jayshawn is used to the looks by now. He extends his hand slowly for a shake.

"Agent Jackson, out of LA. Just got in. Good ta meet ya."

"DC," she told him, reaching a hand out to take his. She even managed a smile, though hers were always edgy.

"Welcome to Chicago."

There's a low bass laugh as they shake.

"Glad ta know that I'm not the only transfer."

He nods in thanks for the welcoming.

"What was DC like?"

"Boring," she said, eyeing him closely and slowly moving her hand off of her thigh.

She gave a shrug, trying to relax. "It's why I transferred. LA?"

"Lots of gang work."

He shrugs and takes a drink of water.

"Figured I'd use those skills here."

"How do those transfer?" She asked without heat.

She seemed sort of idly curious, her eyes returning to the TV.

"Community outreach. Kids in that area respond bettah ta people who know what they face."

He explains it as best as he can.

"So you came to Paradigm for the sake of community outreach?"

No judgement. Just curiosity.

"Someone has to do it. Don't know if ya noticed but this place is pretty monochromatic."

He sprawls his free arm over the back of the couch.

"People around here tend to be more focused on catching the bad guys. Do you hope you'll stop them from ever becoming bad guys, then?"

She had actually turned to fully face Jayshawn, looking at him with a slightly cocked brow.

"Ain't nothing as simple as good and bad where I grew up. Just haves and have nots. They just need someone ta show 'em a bettah way."

He lets out a low chortle.

"There was a time I'd've been arrested by this place."

She smirked slightly as he said that. When she first joined Paradigm, she was a vicious little rebel. She probably should have been arrested, too. Multiple times.

"So what's the plan, big guy?" She seemed genuinely curious. "Field work? Defence? Intelligence? Or are you going to create an actual outreach program through Paradigm?"

"Defense, field work. It's what I'm best at, smash 'n grab type shit. I do the community stuff on my time off."

That's how he rolled in LA, no reason change his methods here.

"Yourself?"

"I'm an intelligence operative."

She chuckled to herself, knowing her defense skills were not always what Paradigm looked for in people. She'd rather have things dealt with silently.

"Also field work. I've been at it for nearly fifteen years, now."

"Damn."

He's clearly impressed.

"Good on ya, girl. I'm only at 4 years."

"You're younger than me," she said with a smile. "You'll get there."

Giving a shake of her head, she leaned back against the arm rest so she could face him, changing the position of her legs.

If he paid any attention to the action, he'd realize it didn't make any noise: there was no sound of fabric against fabric, no sound of her body moving at all.

In fact, if he paid closer attention, he'd realize he couldn't hear her breathing. Or anything else.

"Still, impressed ya still at it after so long."

Jay notices the lack of sound in the shifting of position but really doesn't think anything of it. Nor does he notice the lack of sound to her breathing. His metal powers weren't the only things that could make him dense at times.

"Feel like the grind might get ta ya."

"I enjoy my work," she said with a shrug.

It was probably a bad thing that she did, but it meant her missions were completed. To perfection.

"Big puzzle person then?"

He has little idea of what Intelligence agents really do. He never cared enough of Paradigm’s goals to look into it.

She shrugged.

"You could say that. Puzzles are entertaining enough."

His laughter earned him another one of her careful, edgy smiles.

"I don't know about the others, but I like people to work for their answers. It's boring if I just tell you everything."

Then, with another shrug, she simply said, "Ask the right questions and you'll get the answers you want."
