Christina, The Good Knight
Balloons... cars... this world was strange. As she turned the corner, she continued to see strange things that she felt like she'd never understand. She didn't even know where to begin with this stuff. Why were there so many different types of cars? What were balloons made of? How did they float like that? This world was going to drive her mad, she knew that much.
Finally, she saw the library. It was a fairly large building that looked like many others here: painted walls, a large flat expanse full of 'cars,' people coming in and out... she felt like this would be something she could finally understand.
"So this would be the library?" She asked him, then thought for a moment. "By the way sir, what would you like me to call you?"

Katie Cutter
She did not like this kid. Not at all.
"Is she joking?" Coal asked in what seemed like would be his usual manner and attitude.
"She has yet to be informed of certain details," Ross answered. Ross was okay. A little cold mannered, but that was standard employer procedure. Katie got used to it, and she'd find it more disturbing if this woman was laughing all the time and cracking jokes.
"You mean the important details?" one of them said in a very snarky way.
"She's not exactly on my payroll." Ross crossed her arms. "We still have yet to go over a few things. That's if she still wants the job."
Katie mostly tuned out their ensuing argument. She could tell that this Coal kid was far too overconfident. Part of Katie wanted to beat the shit out of him to bring him down a peg or two. The other part just wanted to put up with him for a little while.
"The job is yours if you want it," Katie heard from Ross, who was clearly done dealing with her son's bullshit for one day.
Katie slowly nodded. "I'll take it. As long as you're not too stingy we should be able to work something out." Then Katie leaned closer to Ross and whispered, "Just a warning, this isn't gonna be pretty. If this kid isn't going to lose his head, I'm going to need to pull it out of his ass." Then, Katie turned back towards Coal.
"So how many assassins have you met boy?" All of a sudden, Katie felt like a drill sergeant. But she really didn't care all that much.
