He gave Lex a little pinch and looked around, inspecting the food, the people, and everything in between. "It could be worse."
Oh look, there was Benzi. She liked him, he was an interesting one and as it happened, not one of them she could only tolerate in short bursts. She nodded a greeting in his direction, making a mental note to speak with him later just before those words caught her ears. Say what now? Crime and questioning? Well then.
"I'm bored, please go commit a crime and let me arrest you--nothing over the top or all the adrenaline craving vultures will swoop in looking to grab some of the action and you already know I'm shoddy at sharing." It was very hard not to appreciate the man when he went making offers like that. Didn't matter if it wouldn't work, he still got how to make her feel better.
Of course he was right about the likelihood of it being worse. They could've been forced to listen to opening speeches on the economy and direction of the Ministry for the coming year. Her attention span wouldn't hold up through something like that.
The pinch, she gave very little of any reaction to but she did lean a little.
"Heard you could get some serious jail time for attacking a law officer like that. I'm open to bribes though."
