Alice's eyebrow rose at the mention of her talents. "So that's why? You use a little magic to keep yourself clean?" She inquired with a light smile. "Can't you argue that the mana in us represents something? Perhaps even our own life force?" She knew she would never change the way Athena thought. This wasn't about that though.

"Bioware is something I'd be more comfortable with, I think. Less invasive. If I had the money I would think about the skin enhancements. The idea of having metal flesh all over is not entirely comforting. But for now, I think I'm best to start off with a fancy gun." She concluded, wanting the discussion over. Her own thoughts later would be necessary to work things out. Besides, there was always the question of what it is she needed all this money for. Although, that, she already knew most of the answer.
