Alex smiles slightly, still leaning back with her eyes closed.  "It does make sense.  I can't wander off too far anyway as I'm reliant on you to get my pills.  Besides," she sat up a bit and opened her eyes, "I may not look it, but I<em>am</em>, or at least was, a marine.  Even if I did have a brief tour of the underworld, I still intend to keep my oaths."  She shrugs a bit, fiddling with her MP3 player in her hands, "I...understand why they did it.  I may not<em>like</em>what they've done, but I understand why they're doing it.  Things have been getting strange lately.  They're trying to understand the strangeness.  And besides, you can't exactly have an uncontrolled admitted predator just wandering around the populace.  I mean...what would the senate homeland security and governmental affairs committee say?  I'm sure the good senators would approve...undead menace to society, feeding on the life energy of the population at large, wearing an FBI badge."  She gives a somewhat derisive snort and slumps in her seat.<br/><br/>"Gah...negative mood swing..."  She rummages about her belt a moment and pulls out another container of pills and picks out a blue one, tossing it back without water.  "Honestly, I'm less worried about what they think and more worried about coming to terms with it myself.  Maybe.  Eventually."
