Mississippi Queen (M)

Assets.  She was unsure if the wordplay was intentional, but it failed to slip by her notice, and her lips curved into a grin.  She was a sucker for clever humor, the more ribald, the better.  "My assets are hardly a question either.  Yours, though... well, let's just say, I'm intrigued."  She made no move to close the distance between them just yet, for at that moment, another appeared to join their little rendezvous.

The other woman had a face about as welcoming as the land they now stood on, and it caused an automatic widening smile to highlight the rogue's features.  The woman's appearance didn't bother the Rivaini, who had seen (and been) worse.  It was her way of carriage that was amusing... masculine and stiff, a complete foil to the easy open stance Roz adapted.  There was no defensiveness as she shamelessly drank in this new party's features as well, before turning back to Tatsuya.

"If she joins, it'll be double," she said with a wink, the obvious laugh behind the words telling of their jovial nature.  She had nothing against such deals (and had made a few of them previously) but she wasn't sure that she wished this encounter to go that way just yet, if at all.  After all, what did they have that she needed?  It was said more for the sake of the newcomer, a comment that might bring a reaction of some sort, if it was not discounted completely.
