Bloodsucker Colonel

“You there. I am looking for information. Can you answer a few questions?”

(FF7 Remake verse)

Thank goodness she was decent at not letting her true identity slip.

Moonlighting as one of the Honeygirls at the Honeybee Inn wasn't the most glamorous of assignments but it worked for her. After all, she could feed intel back to her cell of Avalance.

Not Barrett's cell, of course. They had deemed his methods too radical. Although she did get a lot of flak from her seniors when she'd stated that she could completely understand why he chose his methods. But that was neither here nor there.

Not even dropping the tray of drinks in her hand, she elegantly turned to the SOLDIER.

"Yes, that would be foolish of them. Almost as foolish as opposing Shinra in the first place. But you know nothing about that, of course."

His last remark comes out sounding more like a jab than a matter-of-fact statement. Indeed, he doesn't trust Pari, or anyone else in this establishment - if his intel is accurate, then this whole building is crawling with undercover Avalanche operatives, so he can't afford to let his guard down. The SOLDIER looks up and makes eye contact with Pari, hoping to shake her up a little.

"I suppose that would be... counterproductive, hm? Regardless, there are still... rumors. Murmurs, in the alleyways. We find it unlikely that such activities would not be occurring in an area with as many people as Sector Six. Humans naturally seek out like-minded individuals, after all."

A telling statement from the Honeygirl, but a one she didn't mind sharing.

The glass with water and ice was provided, and so was her infamous hospitality.

He eyes the glass for a few seconds, gives it a light shake back and forth, then takes a small sip. It would be easy to assume he only accepted it out of courtesy, though he isn't coming off as a particularly polite type - he seems focused on business more than anything else.

After a slightly larger sip, he sets the glass down, eyeing the woman with his typical 'business' expression - seemingly serious, but difficult to pinpoint what thoughts are going on in there.

“Yes… That would be preferable. It is much too loud in here, not to mention crowded.”

The SOLDIER directs his attention back to the… waitress? He typically avoids places such as this, so he’s not sure what anyone’s role is. The outfit is the only reason he assumes she works here.

The Honeygirl said with a knowing smile and a graceful spin, still holding onto the tray before she would gesture for the soldier to follow.

"If you please, SOLDIER. Follow me and we can use one of the side rooms here."

She'd lead him out of the hustle and bustle of the main showroom.

He follows his host at a moderate distance, eyeing whoever happens to be closest with every step. Maybe he’s sizing them up, or maybe he’s trying to dissuade any would-be eavesdroppers - both seem just as likely.

Entering the smaller room, the SOLDIER steps towards the center, arms once again crossed over his chest. He doesn’t appear to be as on-edge in this quieter, less crowded space.

This is the stupidest shit ever
