The elf's eyes seemed to light up a bit at Sam's suggestion of using the hot tubs before leaving on the mission.  She also gave a sly smile at her ideas of what to do when the mission was done; apparently, she was also fond of the idea.  "Well, I'm sure benefits would be easily arranged," she said as she turned back to Estelle.<br/><br/>The human leaned back in her chair, looking between Sam and Scotsi, before smiling a bit herself.  "Agreed, some hospitality before leaving - so long as it doesn't delay the mission, of course - would be perfectly fine.  You will have all the amenities I can provide you with available to you until the mission begins, and if successful, for some time afterwords as well."  She paused a bit to see the group's reactions before continuing, "Now, as for the details.  Unfortunately, setting up the monitoring equipment will take several hours, and testing will take at least a full day, possibly longer.  The doctor has a small personal crew that will be in charge of setting up camp and preparing the testing devices - which you are<em>not </em>allowed to touch," she added, looking directly at Tiktik, "but they are not combat trained.  Your full pay requires that the entire crew come back alive and relatively unharmed.  Severe injuries or casualties will be deducted from the total wages.  Any further questions?"
