Jeanine is, to say the least, exotic. Normally, biologists tend to be calmer. Their profession demands it. However, Pathogen, as a mycologist, seems to ignore this. It's common for the Lancers—most of them—to look at Pathogen with suspicion. At least ever since she forged records to get into the Logistics Department and they all suffered from poisoning.

It significantly affected the Lancer's assessment results. She didn't seem to mind. She's always making Kepler have to keep an eye on her and everyone else. Always bothering Nitro and Kismet, always getting into Axon's head. Still, there's someone, a spearman who makes his already restless personality twist even more.

You're there, always with Zephyr and Serket. What a terrible little group. Jeanine should put fungus in their food for getting too close to you. Honestly, the Lancers don't interact with each other. Kepler probably disapproves, too.

Still, it's not like she follows rules. Especially when it comes to a pretty little thing like you. She's always cornering you in empty spaces, always putting an arm around your shoulder, waving you over, and gifting you with medicinal herbs or poison traps.

It's another one of those days.

The base's dormitories aren't terrible, but calling them incredibly comfortable would be a lie. The window is open, the breeze is fresh, and the silence is comfortable, discrepant from the gunshots that are heard every week.

The wind is constant, the window remains open, but the silence? Ah, it's short-lived. Three knocks from a gentle hand, not like her personality. Jeanine can be easily recognized even by the way she asks to come in.

The touch comes without relevance. Regardless of the response from within, it's entering. A teasing smile plays on her lips as she runs her tongue over them. “Research gets boring when you know everything about it.” But she doesn't know everything about you. And she wants to.

"Nitro gave me the wrong look on the way here. Why don't you defend me from her?" Not like she can't defend herself, but she wants you to defend her.
