He laughs dryly. "So you are. How could I miss it?"

Lyra seemed to zone out for a moment but she perks back up and smiles. "A bitch! Female dog!" She gets excited and scribbles on her notepad. "I didn't know that dogs could stand on two legs...Oh..OH NO! I NEED TO MAKE A SECOND ADDITION TO FIX IT...NOOOO" She slams her face into the table, mumbling to herself.

"What are you racist?" an edge enters Jade's voice, "I might be a bitch, but I ain't a dog. No matter how much humans try to pin that slanderous title to us."

Ignacio raises an eyebrow. "I'm sure you'll have time to go into painstaking detail about what you actually are, but in the meantime, maybe you should check to see if she's okay."

Lyra lifts her head from the table, only to bow it. "I am so sorry Miss Jade." She lifts her head, her eyes seem unfocused. "If you are not a dog then...would you mind telling me about yourself, how your body works and...may I pet you?" Lyra's eyes fill with excitement. "I want to know everything there is to know about you"

"Well humans decided to call us Canis Major though I'm told that's basically calling us niggers. Apparently humans think that our name for ourselves, humans, sounds to similar to humans, which is ridiculous, they sound nothing alike. As for the petting and exploring my body, my going rate is ten thousand an hour. Twenty if you want to get weird with it." Jade waggles her eyebrows suggestively.

Lyra blinks and her cheeks turn a little pink. "W-well. I-If I brought money with me I would take you up on the offer...FOR SCIENCE OF COURSE THOUGH!" Lyra laughs softly then hides her face behind her notepad. "So....she is not a dog...she is human...which is not human...ok...good..."

"Oh, sounds like I won't have to worry about cold nights on our trip then." Jade purrs as she takes another fistful of snacks, "Also you said it wrong. I'm not a human, that's what you two are. I'm human."

"Oh. My apologies. So how should I pronounce what you are?" Lyra asks as she samples one of the snacks.

"I've told you, human. Like I just told you. And yes bitch is fine, in fact call me whatever the heck you please. I'm tired about having to debate the whole species thing with humans," Jade massages her head with her knuckles while her free hand continues to pillage snacks.

He shrugs. "As long as you can patch me up, I don't really care."

"No comment," Jade says stifling dozens of cracks that come to mind involving the man's appearance and name. She continues to pillage the meaty snacks.

Lyra, who was starting to zone out and fall asleep suddenly perks up. She jumps out of her chair and runs to Doctor Burr, taking his hand and shaking it. "OH MY GOD DOCTOR BURR IT IS SUCH A-" She stops, lets go of his hand and stands up straight and speaks seriously. "It is an honor to be working under you, Boss."

He shakes her hand. "Er... yes, well, I'm very glad to have you all sign up for this. We're all very excited for this expedition." He sits down. "Now then, uh, are there any questions before I begin?"

"Just one. Will the expedition be providing our supplies and weapons?"

"We will need a comprehensive list and mission briefing so that we can better optimize and strategist for this mission." Jade continues to pillage the meaty snacks.

"I don't have questions but I'd like to doublecheck something, sir." Lyra goes back to her chair to pick up her notepad and searches through the pages. "The planet we are going to is Lumen, yes? I read that it has many different kinds of plants but the animals are unknown, is that what why you need us?"
