"The best person for such a discussion would be a Factor or Factor-designate. They would have the information most advantageous to both sides in such a matter."<br/><br/>...which you know, of course. This is pretty basic stuff.<br/><br/>"Out of curiosity, what manner of offer were you considering for such an arrangement? Hypothetically speaking, of course, were such a conversation to be arranged and production agreed upon."<br/><br/>A gentle probe indeed. After all, mere hearsay and an exchange of suppositions is neither actionable nor incriminating.<br/><br/><br/><em><strong>Nadira</strong></em>, the girl gives you a sour look, eyes narrowing for just a moment. She says nothing in protest, and once you begin to disrobe, she matches you easily. Her own undergarments are simple, utilitarian, and do little to put her modest charms on any sort of alluring display. Small as her breasts are, she could just as well go without the need for any support.  While a blush rises to her cheeks at being so exposed and vulnerable, she cannot help but tilt her chin defiantly up, eyes flashing as if daring you to say something unkind.<br/><br/>Whoever this woman is, she is definitely not a Bene Gesserit.<br/><br/>
