He really wanted to make up for disturbing him and felt this was the best way to do it. “Afternoon sir, please inform me of your name and we can get to sorting out where you are staying if you don’t mind.”<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Winthorpe had grew alarmed with the giggle fit of the woman ahead of him and wondered what she’d meant by “trigger point”. Perhaps the thing that caused her laughing fit in the first place? Quite fascinating. His expertise did not run into the mental depths of the human condition, or conditioning thereof, but he did find the subject a joy to talk about. Judging from the demands of her owner…partner…? Well, the demands of the other woman, it could have catastrophic ramifications if left unaccounted for. Just fascinating!<br/><br/>When Tom had gone about his business, he felt that he’d be in line for some time, but the younger man had placed the duty of overseeing entrance into the facility squarely upon his own shoulders. Good man…it was so hard to find good help these days. A thought he’d believed he considered earlier with the disappearance of his crew. When asked his name, Winthorpe kindly removed his hat and gave a short bow “Winthorpe Harrington, the Third. Pleased to meet you, sir. I’m currently docked under the airship Daedalus. I assure you that I have no weapons upon my person.”<br/><br/>In a display of cooperation, he opened his jacket and took a slow turn around before pulling at his sleeves some to show there was nothing attached there as well. Weapons, though a necessity in some areas, was something he hated to have on his person. After all, a weapon could be used both for and against you, and he’d hate to be a victim of the very item meant to defend him. That certainly would not do.<br/>
