The Boss Man

[Gar]

It was as if a switch had been flipped--her serious expression melted into the amused, mischievous smile that he had been too familiar with. "Oh, please! I'm ~definitely~ not part of the Order anymore," laughed Ni, back to her perky, cheerful self, "~Super~ boring crowd, and they are always stirring up drama among each other!--No offense intended, of course."

Ni hopped off from the crate and straightened her robe. "Well, Boss Man--thanks to you, I'm going to need another shower! You're almost as bad as your brother!" She picked up the bottle of spirits from the floor and handed it to him with a wink, telling the Guardian with the accustomed, impish grin, "I give this to you in hopes that you will remember to live a little more, Boss Man." When Ni turned to pick up the glasses she ensured that she bent down slowly, provocatively, looking over her shoulder to cast him another wink. Then she stood up straight and exited the cargo bay with a confident skip in her step.
