Melanie nodded in agreement, and mostly pretended to focus on driving. She didn't really have a preference for who went crazy, as long as she got paid first. And that she didn't get caught. She wasn't a side-kick in the usual sense. She was more of an...independent contractor. She wasn't going to hang off anyone's arm for a salary. If someone wanted something from her, they better be willing to pay for it.
She snorted a laugh, as she turned a corner. It was reflexive, when she knew better than anyone not to judge a book by it's cover a so forth. "Sorry. You're just so fun-sized. I would have guessed information broker."
The drive was a waste of gas on principle. Not that far over all, but she'd rather fill her tank than pay an emergency room bill for heat exhaustion. "Student," she confirms, wincing at the gum pop behind her glasses. She pulled into a spot in the science building parking lot. "Gotta have a day job, I guess. Plus fancy degrees look good on a resume." Another bad joke with awful delivery as she turned off the car and opened her door. "Pretty convenient that we were headed to the science hall." She grabbed backpack out of the back seat and secured her car keys in the zippered side pouch.
"Where to from here? This where we part ways?"

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
