Baroness furtively gazed out the tinted window, thinking wistfully of the warmth of the sun outside.
After nearly two solid weeks of rain, they finally had clear skies today and yet she was stuck inside in a mind-numbing meeting that was going nowhere. All this wasted time, when she could have gotten some real work done instead of this stupid undercover mission.
Taking cues from the surrounding conversation, she pulled her attention back to the others in time to answer a question directed at herself with a general non-answer that seemed to please everyone.
She hid a sigh and readjusted her position in her chair. Regular chairs just didn't work for her, but this company had yet to pay for chairs that better fit her needs. Moving her tail specifically to call attention to it, and the fact that she was not fully human, seemed to finally jump start the conversation to better grounds.
Baroness allowed a small smile to grace her features as the others in the meeting almost grudgingly began to talk of hiring other Creatures and the needed furniture to accommodate them. They'd originally hired her to present a better image to the world at large, to show how the company was moving with the times but other changes had been slow in the coming.
No matter. Another week perhaps and she'd have gotten enough information on this company for Cobra to secretly buy it out and gut it into a front for some of their other...business ventures.
Afterwords, she could treat herself to a vacation. Yes, a vacation...somewhere sunny, certainly...yes...
