A familiar voice caught Karine's ears and she turned to face it, a smile tugging at her lips. She knew that face as well as the voice, completely unchanged in the century or or so since she'd last seen it. "Hello, Garrick." Her voice was as pleasant as it naturally was, no neutralness to it. Garrick had always been a good partner and it looked like he kept the same sort of weapons as always. Karine approved of that. She'd always preferred the weight of a sword to that of a gun. Felt more natural.
"It looks like you've been doing well for yourself, even if you've wound up in the Americas. Please tell me that you've not only got this left, though, that'd be terrible to hear." Such a contact falling low wouldn't be nice to hear about at all. The fact that again, this was someone who'd known her as a man instead of a woman was just an added level of interest. Reactions were fun.
