Renton was making a very obvious and suggestive path up her bare leg. Her gaze bounced to him. Her ears stood at stout attention. Her tail unfurled from her lap and was waving behind her head. She didn't miss the expression he tried to hide.
"Well, there's no accounting for taste," Julianna quipped about Owen's saucy secretary. She caught herself rolling her eyes over another sip of her water. She took a moment to look over her shoulder for their waiter. How much longer until this awkward encounter was over?
Julianna was aware that she was the only one feeling awkward. Renton was quick to forgive Owen for his earlier behaviors. Owen was refilling coffee like a perfect god damn gentleman. Though it was completely incongruous with the things that kept falling out of his mouth. They did look very handsome while on their best behavior.
They hadn't even ordered food yet.
"Strictly professional. How admirable."
Somehow she had lost track of the conversation enough for her and Owen to speak over each other. She'd been praising him for not fucking his secretary. Simultaneous to him noting how well she and Renton were getting along.
They irony was not lost on her.
Julianna shut up.
Which was fine. Owen was content to talk. Which was strange, but not unwelcome.
"Renton is easy to get along with," she pointed out. It wasn't untrue. The man was handsome, and charming and eager to please when he wasn't being mischievous. "Besides, my job is mediation, more than management," she admitted. Nodding to the compliment she almost missed. “Most problems are solved with compromise. Especially when dealing with adults that are going to do what they want. You have to make it so they want the same thing as you.” She paused to look at Renton. “Which I know sounds manipulative, but I try to have everyone's best interest in mind.”
She didn't feel like Renton was a client anymore. Her motivation to make she he was doing well and taken care of was driven by something stronger, now. She watched him, looking pleased as punch that they were all getting along for this brief moment. "That would be a tremendous undertaking." Julianna knew Owen wasn't bloviating about his inside knowledge. She knew his relation to the commander. "I would be honored to be considered."
Diplomatic as ever.

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.
