"It's my job to securely deliver you to my employers, and not my job to attempt to entice you to work with them. Above a certain baseline of treatment."
"- Oh. I suppose so." She climbs into the bed with the same efficiency of movement she does everything else.
...Svetka is now slightly entangled with Haru. She pulls her arm back a few inches but then freezes.

.......It really seems like she could extract herself if she wanted to, but Julien's not going to be the one to kick The Scariest Lady In The World out of this bed which very technically fits three people at these levels of proximity.
Svetka starts dipping into increasingly elaborate scenarios. If one of the arrivals was a rampaging dragon while they were out in the city, she'd look for places like a subway station or a PATH entrance that would be safe to escape to, and if none of those were available she'd find somewhere that was relatively safe according to these criteria and attempt to observe whether it was most productive to attempt to best it in combat using various weapons prepared and improvised, or to escape it in line with one of these broad strategies...
Julien has run out of nap but this is maybe about as entertaining and comfortable as things are going to get - probably this week? Probably 'this week' and not 'ever again'? Maybe, somehow, things will not be like this forever? - So that's kind of nice.
Yaaaaaaawn Haru stretches a little insofar as he can do this without losing his superior snuggle.
"Which is why I would have thrown multiple objects at it; in addition to drawing attention they'd -" as soon as Haru's ankle is off hers she moves out of the bed without missing a beat - "give me information about the durability of the scales."
"Dragons got out of a dungeon and attacked London one time. Nobody caught one though so there aren't any of that kind of dragon in zoos."
"I don't really want you to introduce all the spy shit to my planet. We have nice things there like 'not sabotage and kidnappings all the time'."
"...Apologies. I am somewhat out of gear. And I don't believe it is solely my purview whether 'spy shit' is spread to your world. It is possible I could prevent it, but only by participating in much of it here."
