Since she'd joined the crew of Man's Ruin a few months before, she'd got used to spending time around him again. They'd known each other before that, back when they'd served on the other ship. Thalia heard the crew had gone their separate directions after she left - she still kept in touch with one or two of the former crew, but she had fond memories. When she thought of Santiago, she remembered their poker games and the way they sat around sharing stories, or just talking about anything and everything. It was his friendship that she remembered most of all, and she didn't feel so alone out in the black when he was there.<br/><br/>Thalia thought Santiago must like the Silverlight club, because he humoured her every time she wanted to come back.. and even when she wanted to dance with him! It could be a crowded place and it was expensive to get in the door, but it was one of the most luxurious places on that whole space station, if you didn't mind the overabundance of purple decor and Thalia didn't. She liked to drag Santiago out on the dancefloor, and somehow she thought that all that bourbon they were drinking helped their dancing along. The music was core world through and through, electronic with strong vocals and an undeniably heady beat. It was loud, but she and Santiago could still hear each other. They were sitting at a table talking when he brought up his question about the 'odd couple' across the way.<br/><br/>It gave her reason to look the same direction he was - as subtly as you can get, before she turned back to him. The man did look rich and the woman fine, but seemingly 'out of his league'. "I think he's a man with money but he's come into it himself. A self-made man. There's a lot of riches out on the Rim if you know where to look for them. The woman.. mmm, no, I don't think she's a Companion. She knows how to carry herself, she looks after herself and she is beautiful. I would guess she's from Osiris or Londinium, but there are telltale signs of a Companion and she is missing them. She's also placing too much emphasis on her own interest or desires and not enough on the man's. In fact, I would suspect she's after his money." She looked to Santiago and smiled. "Did I ever tell you I trained to be a Companion? Oh, they taught me<em>everything</em>."<br/>
