A look of appreciation found Rydia when she began helpfully placing things on the cart. Red decided it would be most efficient to let her trusty assistant haul items closer and spend her own time arranging them in Tetris-like fashion upon the cart. If everything stacked up right, they might just be able to get it all back in one trip. What she wasn't accounting for was the sheer weight of it. Foresight, what was that?
"Hey, you're pretty magnificent yourself." Credit where it was due! She joked, "Overlords should probably be kind of in the shadows, anyway. In movies you only see, like, the back of a really impressive chair as ominous laughter echoes throughout the chamber." Something Red would have to brush up on for evil plots in the future. Anyway. "What I'm saying is: I can keep up with all the data and load our results to WeView, and you can be our public face and oh-so-bubbly promoter. Sounds about 50/50, I think?"
It made good 'business sense' given Rydia's notoriety as a member of the Garden staff as well as a spell-flinging SeeD. And, really, if she wanted to run a company someday it was all about sharing the responsibilities as well as the credit. She smiled a little proudly to herself in feeling one step closer to Redmane Incorporated. Then Rydia's question registered and that smile faltered completely. "Huh? Oh! No. They're pretty cool about car rentals. I just ... uh ... that is to say, I sort of ..." crapcrapcrap. "Hey, look at that! What a super cute bunny!"
