"Only the Gatecrashers," Ishi insolently replied back.  "I wouldn't know much about about you glittering Inner System types.  I'm just the Barsoomian's farther out cousin, after all."  Somehow, she managed to make the self-deprecation sound like she was insulting Akiko and her more capitalistic kindred.  She frowned when the indenture was mentioned again.  "How many times do I have to tell you?  I never signed that contract.  I would rather be on stack in prison than doing this.  Being some stupid hypercorp bunny slut, some overpriced fuck toy."  The minute she let her resistance go, she had already lost.  "Besides, you must think you're pretty clever, forcing that XP on me through my mesh inserts."  A pause for effect.  "I'm not even at full power, and I'm twice as clever as you are.<strong>I </strong>don't need to<strong>force </strong>anything."
