Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tambrey watched Star complaining for a moment, then blinked at Lore and nodded a little.
"Oh, um. Right, sure he will. 'M just... deciding what I want t' do now. If I go back to the room..." She cringed a little "I guess I should. I'll have t' tidy and... There's a weird Magnemite t' get out from under my bed." She frowned; hopefully it would just come right out because she wasn't sure she knew how to coax it. Did Magnemite even eat? Should she off it batteries?
"Yeah.. I should get back." She admitted after a moment, trying to stow away any sign of guilt or concern.

Tambrey smiled just slightly as she turned to follow Lore out of the room.
She didn't exactly feel much different, but couldn't help but find the little bit of truth he'd pointed out somewhat amusing.
"Well... Technically, he /did/ start it." She confirmed, stepping through the door. "And, um, thanks."

"Hm. Well... I guess he didn't actually start the... fighting part, not exactly." She admitted, then nodded and put up a smile. "I'm okay." It was slightly too quick, but followed up. "I mean, I'm not limping, like ya say, but things do still hurt and I've gotten a nightmare of a room mate as a reward for being stuck in a cell and... y'know... but as far as is possible, 'm okay."
She paused for a few seconds, thoughtful, before returning the question and amending it.
"How're you doing? Is it still good to be a grunt?"

Hm.
She wasn't really sure she wanted to get used to having furniture stolen and such other things, but shrugged and smiled all the same.
"Maybe." She wasn't convinced at all, but even so, he'd seen how she'd acted before, so not all the reluctance was genuine.
"So.. Uh. I guess you never were... any other rank... What if you end up promoted though? D'you... plan on being a grunt f'rever?" Tambrey didn't want to be, though also didn't see herself moving up soon if ever at all, but was curious, wondering if Lore might just... choose to stay this rank. She watched his face while they walked; expressions usually gave away more than words, even if only for a second.

Tambrey nodded.
"I guess tha' makes sense. I don't think Agent'll be a bad fit when y' reach that." She commented, using 'when' rather than 'if' without thinking about it.
"It's not such a divisive line 'tween us all there; Aulus 's an agent and still see him a good amount." She was just musing on things out loud rather than trying to 'sell' the rank, though had seemed to have wandered into the positives.

Well that definitely changed how she managed The Boss' office to look.
Now, among the dark woods and plush carpets her mind had furnished it with, there were random little superhero figurines.
She laughed at the image of Lucere, oblivious, sitting at the desc watched over by an unnoticed team of tiny superheroes.

"Well... I'd guess that would, uh, set you back a little, brother or not." She admitted, smiling. "What did you do with the actual decorations?"

Well, that was maybe a tiny bit depressing; barely anything valuable in her room and she'd never broken much.... now, new room mate and together, with their pokemon, they'd managed to make their shared room look like a bomb site, while Lore and his room mate not only got along, but were both careful enough to be able to keep valuable (and likely breakable) ornaments in their room.

"Sure; I'd like t' see them." She nodded "Before they vanish back into the, uh, well depths is the wrong word so... Somethin' else that means 'out of sight' or 'out of reach'. I hope y' don't get in /too/ much trouble for it though when he notices; I mean, it's a pretty fun prank and he does know you well enough..."
She shrugged a little then sighed, realising she couldn't just put off seeing to the destroyed room.
"I guess I ought t' be seeing about coaxing a Magnemite out from under my bed..."
