Mishka let her head tilt a little to the side when he repeated her name back like an echo to her. The flood of his emotions - the mixture and the tinge of his inner aura revealed to her showed in the confusion of her blue eyes. She had always been easily confused by the emotions of others. How anyone could feel so much in even the span of a moment made her head a little dizzy. She quirked a brow as his confident blue - green eyes watched her. She was letting it all filter through her as his stared completely unaware of all that she'd just read from the surface of his mind.<br/><br/>His comment on how strong she was had an opposite affect however, as he lifted his arms in mock protection of himself her blue eyes averted and dropped to the floor - a sadness dwelling there seemed to deepen. She didn't think of herself as very powerful - hell she'd seen other TAINTEDs go damn near nuclear war head on SHADEs before. That Pyro down on level two had nearly caused her to faint due to the heat when they'd been pitted against one another. She'd not come from that encounter with any new friends - and a bunch of new burns and singes on her skin. She looked back up as she felt Scala's irritation on the other side of the one way mirror glass. She wondered why he was irritated this time but drew her attention back to her newest partner.<br/><br/>"I'm never technically alone Mr. Lowett. But I thank you for ... 'having my back'" The turn of phrase was unnatural coming from her lips and she seemed to be puzzling it out as she said it then shook her head slowly as he stood up and started to move about the room. To her he looked like a caged in dog, but the energy bubbling off him seemed anxious or excited before he started to address her again and speak about them going out on patrol and his life being saved or was it hers - she felt a little bit confused having been studying his emotional status until he sat down. She found herself struggling to keep up with him for a moment.<br/><br/>As he continued - and spoke more french she nodded lightly to him and gave him a shy apologetic smile - or at least what she thought was an apologetic smile. "I've not seen many movies I'm sorry; but I think I understand what you mean - I will keep it mind as we go out tonight. Scala is coming back..."<br/><br/>Just then the door popped open and sure enough Jakob strolled back in with Amalee following closely behind him. "Alright you guys need to report up to the Shuttle bay - you'll be going out soon. Mishka can show you the way Mr. Lowlett. Now - this is for you" He set a bracelet on the table top before him, it was almost like a watch with a thick cuff like bangle to wrap his arm, it had a few buttons on it and a small screen. "If you loose track of her - this will lead you to her, this button releases restraints on her - this one locks them back down." He turned away and moved towards Mishka holding out a black leather holster to her. She slid her arms through as she turned her back to Scala and then clipped the clasp before her chest just under her breasts. After that she slid on a plain black blazer jacket and re-adjusted a tie at her neck - it was still loose though.<br/><br/>With the holster on Amalee stepped forward handing her one gun at a time - four would pass to her - each a shiny silver with black metallic crosses along the barrels, REV. CROSS was engraved along the crosses. Finished prepping the collar was locked in place on her and Mishka stood looking like an ambiguous young adult her blue eyes however seemed a little more dulled out.<br/><br/>"Any other questions you two have for me?" He asked and Mishka shook her head slowly before turning her blue eyes to Alex. "What about you Lowlett?" Scala asked placing hands in his white jacket's pockets and giving him a 'I'm waiting and bored with you' look.
