Richard watched Sarah pontificate about her underage status. He wasn't so much interested in her words as in the way her face became so animated when talking about a subject that interested her. In response he said "To hell with regulations. Today we'll be Bonnie and Clyde and break some laws. What's your poison, Bonnie?"<br/><br/>Then the subject turned to politics. In general Richard tried to stay out of political and religious discussions. It wasn't that either disinterested him. In fact, religion interested him quite a bit. Rather, those were two subjects that often led to disputes, arguments, and in a lot of cases, wars.<br/><br/>He shrugged. "I guess a little bit of sensationalist mud flinging is good for both the media and the tabloids. Let them have their pound of flesh. We know that what we're doing is for the good of humanity and that's all that matters."<br/><br/>After agreeing with his views on A.I. theory, Sarah laughed. It was a sweet sound. He wondered if he'd get to hear it very often. She had seemed so serious up until that point.<br/><br/>"I like the way you laugh", he commented.<br/><br/>He scanned the room.<br/><br/>"Not much of a turnout, is it? I only recognised two other crew members and they just left the building. Don't get me wrong I dont mind at all. I have such pleasant company as yourself around."
