[Hey, Boss. Long time no chat. She's missed your distinguished good looks.]

Sure, what d'you have in mind?

[senatorinspace]

[Of course she did. /tosses hair]

The first one's easy.

I need you to look into this Erik Lehnsherr guy. Find out everything you can about who he is.

[sent_farfaraway]

I can handle that. [She assumes that if he wanted something specific, he'd have told her.

Now, does the second job involve a visit to the office?]

So what's the second job?

[senatorinspace]

Something we should probably discuss in person. [In other words, it's too shady to trust it to the net, which could get hackzored]

Locked

[doeswhathemust]

Fifteen to Twenty? How old do you think I am?

Locked forever;

[senatorinspace]

Somewhere in there.

[ Because Nathan promised him a conversation. ]

Your brother and daughter's abilities are hardly rooted in the Force, as you've claimed. Is there a reason for misleading me?

etc forever;

[senatorinspace]

They're rooted in the Force here, and that's what matters. Back home, though, it's ... different.

Old habits die hard, and it's not something we can air out publicly there.

[oxidantshappen]

Now was that so hard, Senator? [ Erik nods briefly, at least pleased with the fact that they managed to settle that much. ] Given the recent incidence with Bellatrix, I can understand your concerns, though is it really necessary to keep them under such lock?

Old habits may die hard, but your family is far from incapable. You however, [ Erik gives him a pointed look, still suspicious of him. ], I'm not entirely certain about.

[senatorinspace]

And what exactly do you mean by that? I don't think I like your implications.

[regeneracy]

All the time? [God, she's going to end up going crazy and killing her father or uncle.]

Aren't you sick of me being at the office with you? And Peter needs to have his own life! And -

[She really has no valid excuse to not do this, and it's pissing her off.]

[senatorinspace]

Claire, that woman's insane. And she's targeting that boy you've been seeing. I'm not going to have you putting yourself in the line of fire again.

[regeneracy]

His name is Draco, Dad. Draco. And I'm already a target, because he chose me over her. I'm pretty sure if she wants to get hold of me, she's strong and crazy enough to get through anyone that's there with me.

[Her voice starts to take on that whining tone, but then it cuts off, as she thinks to ask something.]

I've been having someone help train me. I still have to go meet up with him. Alone.

[Wait. That's not asking, that's telling. Oh well. She takes after daddy, after all.]

[senatorinspace]

Right. ... Draco. [his tone makes it evident how ridiculous he finds even his name. and that he keeps forgetting it on purpose]

Train you? What do you mean, train you?

No reason to apologize, Senator. I could see that you had more pressing issues at the time. I can hardly hold that against you.

But hopefully our conversation can last a little longer this time.

etc forever;

[senatorinspace]

I hope so. I think I've seen you around.

[buryyoualive]

I woudn't be surprised if you have. I've been around. And one of my colleagues from home, Lindsey McDonald, works for you.

[senatorinspace]

Oh right. I think he might have mentioned it once or twice. So you work for the same firm?
