Welcome to Gaia! ::

She smiled up at him warmly as she continued to rub at his arm but it faltered a little at his perceptive question, gaze flicking away briefly before she forced them back. If anyone would understand, he would. Wouldn't he?

"I'm...fine. I just, seeing you again reminds me of the other agents that'd disappeared over the years, and while you've been gone I've lost two that I cared for deeply. One I know for sure is dead, a senshi killed him. The other has been missing for a few years now and we can't contact him, and we can't find him."

She finished up the arm rubbing with a gentle pat to his bicep, then straightened his sleeve again. "Bischofite, Umber, and Typhon." The later she was just slightly less worried about. It wasn't the first time he'd ******** off to live foolishly somewhere.

"How's that, feel better?" She nodded to his arm with a smile. "I started learn some massage therapy after I took over my gym. Thought it would come in handy on the nega side of things."

That the massage helped was enough to make the fighter smile, despite the sobering nature of their conversation. "If it gets sore again I'd be happy to help." Whatever she could do to help her favorite superior and a good friend.

The mention of doctors was a shift but it was a welcome one and Porsha perked up, a bit of excitement making her eyes shine. "Funny you should mention that. I've actually been working out the logistics of having an emergency clinic installed in the basement of this building."

Hands together, she watched his face eagerly to catch his reaction to that idea. It was something she'd been off and on planning for about year, and now that she was back she was eager to start up again. With his backing, his help, it'd be so much easier to make those plans a reality. "We have ample space for it, and we could request some of the mau come cloak any powered presences." Or perhaps even finally figure out how the white moon had clocked the prisoners they'd taken years back.

Dark lips tugged up in a pleased smile as she caught that look of surprise before the nod and it evolved into an all out grin as she recalled that she'd just been a captain when he'd gone missing. That he had no idea what sort of general she'd grown into in his absence.

"No, not yet. I was hoping to get all the logistics of it worked out before I bothered her with it." Not to mention finding a few able bodied individuals to oversee things. "The technology exists, the white moon used it when they took a handful of senshi and agents captive and hid them in an old jail house. There are a few tech savvy mau we could inquire about figuring out how they did it."

Speaking of the abductions was enough to bring a sharp edge to her voice but she switched gears quickly, hands smoothing down the sides of her shorts. "I've got another project I'm putting together as well." This one she wasn't as sure she'd have his full approval on, but there was really no predicting what his time away might have done to him or what he would or wouldn't lend his support to.

"We have a few informants as well, they might be put to good use..." She trailed off, pale eyes flicking up to the scar that sliced between his brows and across one eye. "It's something to work towards, certainly."

Again she felt the temptation to ask him about what had happened, and again she resisted, psychically biting her tongue for a second or two before shaking her head as she brought her arms up and folded them loosely. Side stepping until she could rest her hip against his counter.

"They used it again not that long ago, only a few years back. Abducted numerous agents and even a few Dark Mirrors and held them for for nearly a week, tortured them." Porsha was still livid about that. Furious that she hadn't found any of the guilty to enact any sort of punishment on them for daring to take one of her own.

But she waved it away, moving on. "There have been a number of agents in recent history that have sought out purification for one reason or another. I want to form a team of like minded generals and subordinates to seek these turncoats out to re-purpose or eliminate them."

"They're no better than the monsters they accuse us of being," she agreed icily, eyes narrowing as she stared at a point over his shoulder. But then she was shaking her head, sighing.

She looked back up at him, brows arched at the rumble of a growl in his voice. "I have a list of known defectors and what information we have on them as agents and now as traitors." It wasn't especially long, but long enough that action needed to be taken. "I'm going to set up a...task force, of sorts. To deal with this problem.

"Would you like to be a part of that?" Even in an unofficial capacity his support would be wonderful.

It was such a great relief to have him back again.

At that the fighter glanced around the room before looking back up at Zac. It was getting late, she suspected he had to be tired. They could put a pin in this conversation for the night and save it for the morning.

"Five, maybe six if the Intel pans out." She shrugged. "But we can go over that tomorrow. You look tired, and I know I am."

She grinned as she stepped forward and gave his chest a fond pat. "And unless you want someone to help warm your bed I should get back across the hall and feed my cat."

At that cryptic sounding response she smiled and winked. It was firting, but Porsha always flirted and he knew that. "Then I'll see you in the morning. I can bring over coffee or tea."

And if he had more unpacking and cleaning to do to get his place back to normal she could help.
