Humanity's Shadow

[Reeves]

His figure appeared in the entrance roughly three minutes after she'd taken her seat, evidently he was of the punctual sort and despite the three consecutive all-nighters he'd pulled due to operations within the fringes of Liberty, there didn't seem anything worse for wear about him. The only modification he'd made to his appearance was the fact that he'd abandoned his tie to seem more casual. If the technology Miss Fairchild was in possession of really was as profound as the logs seemed to state it was, successful integration of it would revolutionize the way people interfaced with equipment, the applications for use in agency assets would be equally immense.

It was expected of him to be polite and well mannered, yet it didn't seem fake. Giving her a brief smile as a greeting before promptly taking a seat just opposite her, allowing them to face one another while having this conversation. He was exactly what one would expect from an operative, capable of shirking his own personal problems and functioning like a purely reasonable human being, despite his loyalty to the Republic and all it stood for, he knew better than to trust something this significant to the Corporations that would very well abuse it under the right circumstances, this was the only way to be safe.

I am truly sorry for the slight delay, Miss Fairchild. Funny how I was born on this very Planet, but having spent a little time away I've forgotten my way around. I trust you didn't have any trouble coming here?

It was equally standard for him to ensure she wasn't followed and didn't encounter anything out of the ordinary, one could never be too safe in this line of work, such was a reality he'd experienced on more than one occasion.
