So, the Exchange needed slavers to operate a mining operation in an unknown location. The bigger revelation was that they were willing to equip their agents without fuss, even if they had no history of working together previously. Either the Boss Man could sense brain wave patterns from his seat, or was happy-go-lucky and soft in the brain. That didn't seem to be fitting of an organization such as this. With this mind, the Fallanassi prepares her approach along two avenues: one, that she could take advantage of their equipment policy. Two, that she had to take care with how she presented herself. No theatrics, no mockery. Finding a way to speak towards criminals without mocking them would be quite the challenge, but not impossible.
The woman appears to be playing with something between her thumb and index finger, while casually looking at armour port holes, assistants, and strange men who seemed incredibly familiar, but out of time, as if there was a divergence in the multiverse.

*Even as Dred was praised for being thorough and productive he wasn't overtly showing much emotion, if any at all. Dred did take notice of Arkan Bloodrage.*
*Dred had heard of the Bloodrage family. Their reputation precedes them. Dred had done a job for Sorak a while back. Even had some payback in mind for one of his colonel cronies. Too bad that most of them used the Force. Except for Arkan.*
*Dred walked over to Arkan. Buy'ce in hand.*
"Forgive the boss, his reach is far and wide, which means he has a lot of meetings. I'm Dred Vizsla, one of Exchequer's enforcers. You're Arkan Bloodrage. *Dred extends his hand to shake Arkans.* I've heard a lot about you. You're reputation precedes you. I did some work for your brother Sorak. I usually don't work for dar'jetii, but when Sorak asks for you personally, you don't disappoint. Kraval and I owe one of his Colonel's a proper visit, his greetings and manners are a little less than friendly. Although I'm sure it is standard when Mandalorians show up."

You do want power don't you? "Forgive the boss, his reach is far and wide, which means he has a lot of meetings. I'm Dred Vizsla, one of Exchequer's enforcers.

Exchequer laid out a line of spice on the table. This time he made two. The spice was Andris, Exchequers network of slaver contacts and such imported it into his possession. It was highly rare but Exchequer had a special in. The spice would provide sensory enhancement. It was not addictive yet, but it would be if refined further. Exchequer took a look at Arkan.
I will grant you a size of the profits. Now, for a say in operations, I have come up with a solution. I have many backers and some wish to have a say. They will be included in this. But, none other than those who have negotiated it. I call it the Board of Directors. This Board will have considerable say over operations and any Board member can issue an order, approved by me of course. For you see, I wish to retain full control while granting some of my control to the Board. I am sure you can understand, I've been in the market for longer than most and have amassed a many contacts. You're a pirate, and more than likely have a target on your back as a big as a bantha. Ex laughed a bit. So, in order for the Exchange to survive and for you to escape, we need someone that others do not know about. And, that would be me. My name only graces the upper echelon of the market. I will make sure you stay safe by giving you access to my network. I am sure we have an agreement. Now join me in this line of spice.
Exchequer pointed to the spice.
After you, my guest.

Shifting in her seat to find herself at a better view point. To look at the new comers. Letting her hand shift silently. Enhancing some of her skills to pick up on all could gather from others with in the room. Finding the information most useful for future. Letting herself be a shadow only to be brought out of where her own mind. In that matter of time, there was a deal made with the one that seem to only feel only one with was the boss of this group. As her mind spinning of how she could angle herself in, even those the power really didn't matter or did it more then she herself relized. It was only then did she let her lips have a smirk only herself would know why.

The Fallanassi tries to remain as inconspicuous as possible -not out malicious intent- but as a form of respect in a very unfamiliar world. Yet, impatience was starting to gnaw. She had to check the desire of accessing her Oracle Network: there was a post on the holonet that she needed to finish, something about pretending to be other people in an alternate reality, in another galaxy, where Coruscant was called Earth, and it was thousands upon thousands of year before deep space travel was viable. While she is standing, leaning against a wall, with her arms crossed -she begins to drum her fingers quietly against the elbow it rests upon.

Exchequer notices the Fallanasi. He nods in her general direction. Or it could be a he, Ex didn't question. It was probably best to just ignore her or it and fix his attention on Arkan again. But, her tapping was starting to sink into his mind or was that the spice. He couldn't tell. But, eventually it became normal as he injected himself with a mind numbing spice. The tapping faded away.

Growing bored due to the her restless mind, the Fallanassi decides to take a risk, if it could be described as such, and to whip out a compact datapad. The need to post burned almost as much as Ex's need to drink in cocktails of harmful chemicals. Besides, it might take this "Boss Man" a while to settle down from his conflicting highs and lows, along with what seemed half of the people in here. Sensing no apparent threat, she allows her gaze to fall to the screen, while still leaning casually, and before long, her attention is completely focused on the screen and data access.
So, in short, both the Boss Man and she managed to achieve the same state of numbness to their surroundings.

Arkan glanced down at the line of illegal, mind altering spice that Ex had lined up for him. Good thing he was fully encased in his armour and mask, otherwise his facial expression might have offended Ex. The Bloodrage Pirates did not need anyone looking over them or protecting them, they did what they liked, when they liked! Right now Arkan just wanted to leave. They agreement had been set and lines of communications had been established but there was something he wanted out of this deal.
"It is agreed then but I will not partake in this poison. A good merchant does not consume his product! I shall depart immediately for Ryloth, I believe your operations requires slaves and I have frequented that region of space before, excellent slaves! Would anyone like to accompany me on this, and maybe other, missions?" Not very subtle but then that time had passed, they were all "frenemies" now!

Without looking up from the datapad, or considering if the question was directed to everyone in the room or stabbing at one member in particular, the Fallanassi quips out a rather strange question.
"Vot are der species of slave zthat zyou're looking for?"It was a remarkable accent, really.

Exchequer smiled and then his face turned to an "eh" face. He looked over Arkan and sighed.
Then it is agreed, but this spice will not do itself. He said as he laid out a line. Yes, we do need slaves. And Ryloth is perfect, there is a big mouth senator I want to have killed so we can ravage the world. But, all in all Ryloth will work.
He stops midline from hearing the Fallanasi speak.
And, who the hell are you?

*"Idiot."*
Down angles the pad, and those eyes narrow with what could only be described as distaste.
"Dee Major, of course. Zyou und I hafe been formally introduced before, on Bespin. At der moment, I vork for zyou."
She points straight at Ex's face.

Taping her finger nails as she took upon herself to be in some kind of daze of some sort. Only half way listening as it wasn't very important stuff that was going on, or was it to her. Hearing of blowing things up, which was something she hadn't done for a while. Only things that matter to her was stuff that was important to the Adrimal which havent been in contact for a while not. No matter that was as had been given a mission that was to gather as much intel as one could in this kind of situation. Only thing really peek herself when Major that was her name if she remember right from back on Bespin.
These Senators thing they all that, I wonder what kind of secret they have in their closet. I bet we wouldn't have to kill everyone of those stuff, shits every time they got in our way.

Republic space is the only space that is not exactly open to us. The Sith worlds generally don't care. And, if they do, they like money more. He said as he snorted the line.But, the Republic tries to be resistant. But, I am sure that we can get involved into politics. |

"The boss does like to indulge himself, but considering the position he's in he has little to worry about using up all his product. After all he has us as his muscle. While I do agree, one should never get high on their own supply."
*Dred's amusement ceases.*
"I'll be the first to volunteer my services Alor'ad Arkan. If we are heading to Ryloth, that means Republic space. Republic space means we'll more than likely run into hut'uun jetiise."
*Dred spits on the floor when he finishes saying Jetiise*
"When that happens you'll need experienced vets to handle them." |

*The Captain looked at the Mandalorian again, he did look like he could handle himself. The Jedi would possibly be present in the Ryloth system, their re-organised Jedi Watchmen had been more vigilant in the Outer Rim of late. Arkan did not like Mandalorians and was not surprised to hear that his brother had tried to lure a group of them to Sernpidal and kill them. However, if this Dred was among them then it meant he survived and that he was indeed skilled, he might be needed.*
"I would welcome you aboard the Cutlass Dred, we shall depart as soon as our business here is concluded."

"Jedi?"
The woman's freckled cheeks split in what could only be described as absolute disgust.
This man was tall! It wasn't often she had to crane her neck upwards to speak on someone, since she easily topped six feet in height, and that was when slouched over. What were they feeding these galactic denizens?
"Vwhat do zyou plan to do? Blitz them vith an invasion force over a few slaves? Nein, Goodt sir. Allow me to accompany zyou on this operation. Zyou'll find I have a vway of concealing a subtle knife."
She worded that carefully, as dropping the Fallanassi card would just be plain old stupid, considering their infinitesimally short supply these days. Plus, the Major hated Mandos; why not undermine any one of their members?
"Und vwill can shtill bring der Mando vwith us. Their T shaped fvisors hafe a vway of confusing und terrifying those vwith vweak vwill."
And yes, she would find every word in Basic that contained a "W" in it, until the universe burned.

*Dred looked down at most people, simply because he was better than most, as most mandalorians are. Dred looked down at her simply because of height. But there was a simple truth here, they all thought they were better than the next. Dred notes the Fallanassi disdain for jedi. Common ground for all it seems. He looks the fallanassi in the eyes. The intent he conveys is a sincere severity and a wary warning for all who gaze upon him.*
"It's time to get the obvious out of the way. Fallanassi don't like Mandalorians, Mandalorians don't like Fallanassi. Old prejudices die hard. Just like Echani don't like Mandalorians, and vice versa. The time for peacocking is over. I don't make the rules, he does." *Dred motions over at Exchequer.*"It's my job to enforce them. Like me or hate me, we all dance to his tune. The quicker we understand this the quicker we can get to business of real importance. Mandalorians are feared throughout the galaxy. We don't waste time on politics we conquer what we want and burn the rest. We have no morals or ethics to hold us back. An attitude that hasn't endeared us to the rest of the galaxy. Something I believe we all share. Now as far as subtlety against Jetii, I've never seen it work as they always figure things out with ease because of some invisible aid that helps them do the impossible." *Dred pulls out one of his rippers like any impressive gunslinger does with a backward spin, stopping to cock back the hammer after it stops spinning.*" I find that a more direct approach works better and more often than not."*Dred pulls the trigger while easing the hammer back and spins the ripper expertly back into it's holster in a forward spin.* |

Flair and an air. This Mando definitely had paid attention during his Drama class. She wonders briefly if all Mandolorians made it a point to state the crushingly obvious before commencing operations. It would have been easy to compare his observations to that which a bantha could hold candle to, but why waste everyone's time? This was business, and he was not lying. It surprised her that the Mando could peg her as a Fallanassi, considering: there wasn't exactly a uniform that they all wore, every official databank and record pointed to her being the last, and although she did once number their ranks, she was, at best, considered a black sheep, devil's reject, and a failure to now extinct cult. Nevertheless, his information was correct. Give credit to where it's due. Another issue he pointed out is the persistent nature of Jedi, and how secrecy would fail them eventually. They weren't seeking to topple governments, but collect slaves. Leave the low brow plans to low brow methods, or that's at least the way she thought on it.
Rather than argue or retort, the Fallanassi shrugs slowly, closes her eyes, and nods -in silent agreement with the Mando.
