Walking down the corridor, minding her own business was practically begging someone to come and bother her.

"Ah, Nova, just the monkey I was looking for." His slick voice washed over her receptors with all the chills and flattery it usually contained.

"Can I help you?" she liked to limit her verbal interaction with the leader due to how stupid she always felt in debating with him. He was far more learned than she, and knew his own strengths better than any other being she had ever met. That severely disadvantaged her; she could not stand on equal ground with him. He was her better and she couldn't respond to that properly. Verbally anyway—she could fight and sweat and follow him with all the faith of a child in their parent.

"I would like to start with a new training program—I was wondering if you would like to help me with it. It's going to focus on different weather survival techniques." His grin at the end sent shivers down her spine—she chose not to think about why.

"Sure, that sounds great."

"Perfect, I'll see you at 0700."

She was worried by the excited look in his eye.
You know, other than the fact that he turns into a genetically deficient twerp, I don't have that much of a problem with Mandarin. He's the type of character I'd usually fawn all over (but I'm afraid Sprx has taken that mantle from him). That being said, he's still a royal jerk. :shakefish:
