III. Meeting with the Boss (Aphro'd)

Dec 23, 2011 19:22

Dashing from her office as quickly as she could, the latest victim of Karen Lilica, the "Demon Boss of Floor Five", was in tears. After working for the company for no longer then two months, she had been let go. She had pleaded to be given a second chance, but the words of her boss simple were loud and clear: "Either leave by choice or by force ( Read more... )

'Oh dear,' thought Flynn as his boss hung up the phone after her terse message. He knew what that tone usually meant.

To be perfectly honest, this job went against Flynn's principles. Not only was his boss cruel to those she found useless, but he really hadn't been expecting to do... these kinds of things when he had gotten out of college. Flynn knew that of course but... it paid well. And Flynn knew there was plenty of room for advancement within the company.

Besides... he would never admit it, but Flynn would be lying if he said he hadn't enjoyed servicing his boss. Deciding that the less he kept her waiting the better, Flynn left his desk and quickly strode the short distance to her office. He knocked briefly before opening the door to show it was him.

"You wanted to see me Miss Lilica?"

When he'd enter, he would find Karen sorting through papers on her desk. Each one she'd inspect and consider for a moment before tossing it in a growing pile of things she had yet to do. Oh, if only the act of firing someone didn't involve all this paperwork, her job would be so much easier.

"Close the door." She replied, not even glancing up in his direction as she spoke. It took a bit more searching around before she finally found the folder she was looking for. She tossed the item onto the desk for him to take as she moved toward the minibar she had installed into the office after her promotion.

"File those. And have security check on Angel. I want to be sure her desk cleared out completely before four thirty."

All the while as she gave him his instructions, she was busily pouring herself a drink.

Despite his misgivings about this job, Flynn was nothing if not fast, efficient and obedient. Perhaps that's why he lasted so long. The second she gave her orders, she would find Flynn moving to do complete those tasks immediately ( ... )

There was a pause in her motions as she considered his question, briefly glancing in his direction for the first time. Normally she'd appreciate the time alone after dismissing someone from the company. She'd calm her nerves with a drink, the return to her work. It was a method she'd adapted and fallen into for a while now and one that usually worked. But today things felt different.

"Yes," Her drink in hand, she reached for one of the many notebooks in her tray. Rather then sit at her desk, she opted for her couch instead. One leg crossed over the other, she began flipping through the pages one by one. "But only after you've taken care of those tasks. Make it quick, Flynn."

Indeed he had, his appearance alone doubling to make Karen seem that much more dangerous to workers and company heads alike. Normally he didn't do this kind of thing--the thought of being an underling to anyone was repulsive--but something about Karen enticed him...aside from the obvious physical features she had, of course.

Bison smirks as he sweeps into the room and closes the door behind him. He could give her what she wanted, and plenty of it. He was tall, strong, head to toe muscle with speed and skill to back it up.

As for what she usually wanted him for? Well, he had plenty of that to spare as well. So yeah, it wasn't so bad. Besides, she couldn't be the head of this company forever.

"Yes, my dear?"

ghostofhissins December 25 2011, 23:20:12 UTC

"We're going to need a replacement, Bison."

She was standing by her mini bar, fixing herself a drink. It was something she often did to relieve some of her stress and after dealing with Angel, she needed it. While it had been a relief to finally get rid of a slacker like her from the company, Karen's encounters with her always left her feeling drained.

"But, it can wait until later. Right now I just need something to take my mind of things."

Glass in hand, she moved to seat herself on the couch rather then behind her desk.

"Of course. One will be found quickly I'm sure. I'll set up interviews when appropriate. For now..." He trails off and approaches her, crouching down a bit and leaning in to give her a bit of a smirk.

"I would rather busy myself with relieving you of your tension." He says this while rubbing a large, strong hand along one of her legs.

ghostofhissins December 25 2011, 23:33:39 UTC

It was right of people to be intimidated by Bison. And even though she was his boss, Karen would sometimes feel the same as they did. He was powerful, much more then she was and she sometimes couldn't help but feel just a little unsettled in his presence.

But, she welcomed him touch. Smiling for a brief moment before taking a sip of her drink, the alcohol slowly working it's magic and relieving some of her tension already. She set the glass aside shortly after, not wanting it to get in the way of things and hinder their activities.

"Reliable as always."

Zack winces for the second time within a minute or so--the first time because of the poor victim of this company, and the other for the demanding way his boss spoke to him. He wasn't surprised of course, but it never made him feel any better to know he was about to head into her office when she was so angry.

Still, he stands and quickly goes into her room, standing in the doorway with a friendly smile on his face. "You wanted to see me, ma'am?"

(OOC: Dunno if you know of Zack, but it's the older, more adult looking version of him from near the end of Crisis Core.)

ghostofhissins December 25 2011, 23:26:52 UTC

"Close the door."

Karen glared up at him for a moment before turning her attention back toward her computer screen. There were several new messages in her inbox however, nearly half of them weren't work related. They were just the same old messages from men she'd dated in the past asking her out for dinner or some other social event. Dating several different men was a bad habit of hers.

In fact, it wouldn't be a lie to say she hadn't considered adding her assistant Zack to that list as well. One by one, she deleted the messages as she waited for him to step inside.

top_class_zack December 25 2011, 23:59:35 UTC

Zack does as he's told, and it was no wonder she may have considered adding him to her list. He was handsome, had a pair of beautiful blue eyes that were compared to the sky more often than not, and looked lean. From what she probably heard from co-workers, he was finely built underneath his work outfit, and thus far had not yet been brought in to soothe her anger in the manner she was thinking of.

"Anything I can do for you, Ms. Lilica?"

ghostofhissins December 26 2011, 00:16:25 UTC

When the last spam message was deleted, she finally stood up straight, taking a moment to consider Zack for a moment.

"Sit," She nodded toward one of the guest chairs positioned across of her desk. "I require your assistance on something."

Indeed, she had heard the chatter of her female employees. He'd been the talk of the office since she brought him in and Karen had to say she was curious. There was something about him she felt herself drawn too. Certainly, he was much different from the usual type of men she went around with, but change was sometimes a good thing.
