"Make 'em work for it, eh?"

Jayshawn nods with a smirk, he could respect that kind of thinking. He shakes his head lightly after a moment.

"Sorry ta say but I'm a product of the south central LA school system, I ain't got shit for findin' the right questions."

Still, inner cities schools were horribly under funded. It's part of what he tries to fight in his outreach work.

"What's your first name, Agent Campbell?"

Her smile grew, but as it did, more of her teeth showed, making it look almost predatory. A lot of people thought they could ask all of the right questions, and they were wrong.

Their arrogance was insulting. His honesty? She liked that.

"Venus," she told him, offering a nod. Good job.

That smile might bother some, but Jayshawn is completely unperturbed by it.

"Venus, huh? Like the planet?"

Because there are no other Venus' to his knowledge. What are Romans?

She blinked, not expecting that, then chuckled.

"Like the goddess," she corrected.

He's not following.

"Venus was a goddess of an old religion," she said, actually not seeming to lose her patience. "She represented beauty, fertility, sex, and desire, amongst other things."

With a light shrug, she said, "My dad was a theology buff. He loved the old religions."

Jayshawn gives her a curious look, not something he would think a man would name his daughter after but it's better than a car. He takes another sip of water.

"That's new, always thought people with that name was due to the planet. What religion is that?"

It certainly isn't one he's heard of, but he's interested.

"The religion of the ancient Romans," she said with an amused sort of smile.

At least he seemed willing to learn.

"Sure," she said with a laugh. Oh, he was going to be a hoot. "Let's go with that."

She wasn't asking any questions. She had his last name and where he transferred from... she'd look up everything she wanted to know.

"Crazy."

Jayshawn laughs lightly, though he knows it's just a movie and hyperbolic.

"Makes sense you'd be into intel with a dad like that."

She cocked a brow slowly, letting him laugh.

"What does my father have to do with my choices as an agent?" She asked, tone amused rather than annoyed.

"Just seems with an old man like that he'd stress learnin' shit and questions, ya know. Make it fun or somethin'."

He has no idea if that's true.

She shrugged slightly. His answer wasn't entirely wrong, but it wasn't exactly right, either.

"I do a lot more than answer questions," she said simply. "I utilize an intelligence network so I can completely know my enemy before attack. I usually attack the weakest points at the most unexpected times."

"That's some ninja shit."

He isn't the tactics type himself, but he respects it.

"Sounds like a lotta work."

Ninja? That got her to laugh again, her face lighting up. It had been a while since she had been called a ninja, but hey. Whatever works.

"It's no more work than a Defense agent," she said with a lift of one brow. "On the field, they get to do most of the work and deal with my leftovers."

Jayshawn grins slightly, glad to be amusing at the least. He shrugs slightly at the mention of Defense work.

"Seems like it. D's always just been smash the other guy for me."

It works.

"And if you can't catch the other guy?" She asked, genuinely curious.

That was her problem with the smash and grab method. If somebody tried to just smash and grab her... Well, they'd have to get close to her, and then they wouldn't have much of a chance to get out.

And that was IF they could get close to her.

"I usually just let them come to me."

He shrugs again, if people were running than they were winning. Simple is as simple does.

"They'll have trouble doing whatever they're doing while they're running away."

She just chuckled and shook her head. She wasn't going to argue tactics with somebody just after meeting them. She was too tired for all that.

"Alright, then."

He laughs heartily as she shakes her head.

"Never called myself a thinker, it's why I leave them decisions to others."

"I'm a thinker," she said with a chuckle. "And I prefer to attack when I have the obvious advantage."

"That's good."

He grins.

"You tell me who to smash and when, and I'll smash 'em."

So Agent Jackson wanted to play her guard dog? With Paul out doing... well, whatever... that sounded like a good deal.

"As long as you think you can keep up with me, then sure."

She was fairly certain he didn't realize what he had just offered, and that made her chuckle.

"As long as you ain't pullin' too much ninja shit, I shouldn't have any problems."

If it isn't obvious, Jayshawn isn't the most nimble of people and his power just compounds on that.
