[Rachel just beams. It's nice to be taken seriously; she's used to people who have just seen some of her more embaressing escapades splashed across the front page of the paper thinking she's a total flake, unless she's worked with them before]

Once in awhile. There's a reason I don't take my purse when I'm on a job.

[just amulets and a gun at her back. And damn, she wants her gun. She has empty splatballs, but nothing to do with them. She could have just filled them with water and showed off with that]

Cool. [she's totally serious when she says that] I know someone who can handle a sword really well. I'm okay, but I learned the hand to hand stuff first, and I'm way more confident with a gun. It's a lot easier for someone to take your weapon anyway, so I don't like trusting that I'll have one even if I bring it. [like how she doesn't like relying on having backup. Then why does she miss Jenks and Ivy so much?] Maybe we could swap pointers.
