Admiring of her professionality in her answer, Victor nodded to KimRae, that was when he realized her upset behavior toward him. He wished he could have told KimRae exactly what he was thinking. Everything such as that he just simply had not been able to get a solid opinion about KimRae and that she was just too mysterious in his mind. Victor also wished, that he could put his thoughts about Aito into word without revealing what happened to him in his past. It was not a lie that he was not too good with words, in fact. If he could have a serious conversation that relied on intimidation instead of calmness and charm he would have prefered that. As it stood at the moment- it would be hard for him to figure out how he would explain the reasons he brought the girl along.<br/><br/>It was not that he trusted Aito completely, it was more so that he saw his younger self in the girl. When he had actually worked for the Rangers on a professional level and had not set off on his own. There were many reasons Victor did not like to gain friends or the like- and that was because he knew he would eventually see them die. Everyone died in this world eventually... there was no stopping that. So when he accidently made it sound like he trusted the girl over KimRae... and when KimRae got mad at him. Her sharp tone made him wince slightly under his helmet. Victor knew that they could not see his expression under his helmet, but out of instinct, he hardened his gaze like stone "You are right KimRae. I promise to offer an explanation later and a proper apology."<br/><br/>That was the first time he said an actual sorry to anyone since he went off on his own. Though maybe it was just because he felt guilty for letting her get shot in the first place- for letting a civilian... get shot. 'I suppose I am not much more than a Civilian now in truth, as well...' he admitted to himself. Victor looked behind him at the girl when she said her name to them, and he decided to step aside. Aito had tossed Raymond the last of her stimpacks just like she said she would. He was nothing but surprise when KimRae shook her hand and Raymond accepted her into the group. Silently, he nodded to the girl "Well Aito, I guess you are with us now-"<br/><br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">"Half a million caps, and that's the bare minimum." It was Raymond who had spoke, and it was then that Victor had stopped speaking to Aito and had directed his speech to the helpful doctoring fellow.</span>"So that is what you are here for..." he said in response. "I am just going to say it now... but how in the world can human instinct allow you to trust other people you hardly know into helping you acquire such money... that amount of currency could keep you set for a long time after all" Victor asked. "Also, I must ask you this out of my own personal rules... but... you don't plan on using this currency to do anything besides survival... do you? I mean, you don't plan on doing anything that could harm people..." he raised his hands "Just asking... like I said, it is in my nature and personal law to protect innocents and stop those whom wish to harm, not help one cause any unqualified misdeeds. I hope you can understand that and put my mind at ease. I promise- that I will not do anything to get in your way if you tell me it is for dark reasons... only because I owe you one. But I cannot help if it is such a case." Victor explained "I know you understand that as well."
