Millicent just stood there quietly for a moment before responding.

"MADE?"

[ze_leaper]

"A stupid name, yes," she agreed. "But a stupid name offering a substantial paycheck."

"Okay, so what are they on about? How are they different from AIM? We need to know these things."

[ze_leaper]

"Nothing terribly insidious. With AIM proper having returned to its more global conquering roots, they seek nothing more than to make money supplying other organizations with advanced technology and weapons. They are considering the funds for our procuring this device a "research and development investment.'"

"Hmm, that does sound potentially promising. We should do some preliminary surveillance on where the device is held," Millicent suggested.

Adrienne nodded in agreement. "The usual two-stage plan? Passive exterior surveillance, and then the femme fatale, "Oh, I would love to see ze inside?" seduction surveillance?"

Millicent rolled her eyes, but it was more playful than true annoyance.

"You are rather good at it," she conceded.

[ze_leaper]

Adrienne just laughed. "What can I say? Ze accent, ze little pout, zere are few men who can rezist."

[weapons_mistress]

"Oh come now," Millicent playfully scoffed. "If any accent tinkles the ear it is a proper English one."

[ze_leaper]

"Oh, but French is ze language of amour."

[weapons_mistress]

"Pfft. That's self-promoting propaganda."

[ze_leaper]

"The best kind of propaganda!"

[weapons_mistress]

"Still propaganda."

[ze_leaper]

"That does not make it untrue."
