Jasmine smiled warmly at the perky blonde who met her at her door. As nice as the walk had been, and it had been lovely as well as serving hte dual purpose of accustoming her to walking on land again after weeks on board her yacht, she was ready for a shower and feel her flesh clean and without the slight tang of salt on her skin. She chuckled at the less than subtle comment about her staff and shook her head gently, "Registered yes, paid for no. They won't be staying on the island but are just offloading my things for me. They'll go back to the yacht and sail it to a small boatyard off the coast of Italy for maintenance and a fresh coat of paint and then return to retrieve me at the end of my month unless I renew the lease on this charming house for another month."<br/><br/>Smiling to her staff she asked them to simply place her bags in her rooms and gave each a warm hug before they left. Each had been with her family for years, the oldest having taught her how to actually sail her own yacht when she was just a girl. For a young woman with no family left, these family retainers were a friendly reminder of her own loving childhood and of her parents. She cared for each of them and hoped they'd enjoy the vacation they would have once the yacht was in it's final port...they'd all find bonuses waiting for them when they got there and the thought of the surprise she was leaving them made her smile as she watched them leave.<br/><br/>When the blonde held out a hand she took it and smiled when the petite woman hugged her. Clearly this was a woman used to doing things her way and Jasmine appreciated that in anyone.<br/><br/>"Please do lead on. We can unpack later, if you'll give me time for a quick shower, and tell me what is appropriate for what you deem 'fun', I'll be ready to place myself in your capable care in less than 20 minutes. And please, just call me Jasmine...if we can hug there is no need for formality," she added with a fresh grin.<br/><br/>Even if nothing came of this trip for the Agency, and she didn't get reimbursed, she thought she would enjoy her trip. She had needed to relax and unwind, to mourn her parents loss, and this seemed a wonderful place to accomplish her own ends, if not those of her employers.
