It was kind of amusing to see her attempt at humour while also looking like a caricature herself - a pretty one, but still. Knowing that their best bet was to work together probably meant she would have to get used to it and soon. As long as the blonde didn't conduct biz while she was three greasy Nomad Specials deep...<br/><br/>"Yeah, I'm down for some recon before we go in," agreed Val with a nod of her head. Her eyes slid to the side towards the man who had been contributing quietly from his adjacent booth in case he wanted to chime in. Then her eyes moved back to the blonde hunched over the table, a sizzling haze around that halo of bright hair from each pull of the cig. "But you're no good 'til you rest it off so tomorrow night is better, yeah? 10pm sharp."<br/><br/>The words were laid on the table like a suggestion though it was anything but. Val would be there even if either of them decided to come along. This XBD business was way too hot to pass up when she was still coming up dry from her leads years later...<br/><br/>With finality she thrumming her hand on the tabletop before pushing away from it. She walked right back to the bar beside Karma although she didn't intend to stay for another drink. If there was a gig to do she'd need to get ready. So her hand slipped briefly across the breadth of the ripperdoc's back between their shoulder blades like a quiet send-off to not interrupt her chat. Instead she sent a quick message as she passed by.<br/><br/><em>Got something lined up. Heading home.</em>
