Renton scoffed loudly at Julianna’s display of naivety that she would know anything about his “real” personal life. He adjusted his tie, wiggling it back and forth on his neck. A sassy gesture. “I’m really not so deep.”
He went on to greet the passengers on the elevator with warm familiarity as a sort of show for Julianna. She might think him a criminal but he was a damn charming one and everyone liked him anyway. Smirking at her obvious tension on the elevator - he could imagine she was anxious to begin her work to earn her pay - Renton put a hand between her shoulder blades to escort her onto the Command Central floor.
She hesitated in her pace but he went on ahead as if he hadn’t noticed. He walked with an unhurried easy confidence that always suggested he belonged exactly wherever he was found. Even if that was the server room to a private corporation he had no business infiltrating. Or lounge of the Command Central floor.
Once cleared for entrance, Renton clipped the ID card back to Julianna’s lapel. Bending close to her ear he whispered back to her, “You’ve got the first day jitters. Don’t worry. You’ll do fine.” He linked his arm through hers again to steer her away from the bustling reception area of the floor and straight to the overly luxurious lounge area that Central Command officers and staff enjoyed. The floor had a higher energy to it than the IT floor did. A never ending string of phones ringing, heels clipping along the floors, aides hustling down the halls, and the occasional raised voice.
“The way it works here is someone with clearance can escort you into areas that you don’t have clearance for. I vouched for you. So be cool.” Renton explained as they ducked into the lounge.
That was not the way security worked at the CAF in the slightest. Not even close. In fact being caught in a secured area without the proper clearance was grounds for at least dismissal if not prosecution under the right circumstances. Renton figured Julianna had not been provided with her employee handbook yet, and if she had she likely had not found the time to read through the excessive amount of regulations employees were expected to follow. In short, he was banking on her ignorance.
In the lounge, Renton moved to the cart displaying a range of pastries and fruit. Just two croissants were left and he plucked one for Julianna and one for himself.
“So -” He bit into his pastry sending flakes falling to his suit jacket. “What do you want to know about me?”
A voice familiar to him boomed outside the door giving a series of clipped but complicated instructions in an aggressive tone which was followed by 'yes sirs.' Renton smiled at Julianna waiting for her to ask her questions as he nibbled at his breakfast.
