Snippet #1346225

"Thank you Clown," Red said in a serious tone as he placed the fan down. She ignored his and Dan's bantering for the most part, until Dan started speaking to her. Red didn't like taking orders, but she would, even from Dan since he was many decades her senior. Still, she didn't like to be completely submissive, so she had to work a little defiance into her response.

She lifted her chin slightly as she said, "Fine," in a clipped tone. She pulled her chair back up to her computer. She hated using it for anything as trivial as getting background information. This computer could do so much more, it was a God damn Tianhe-I! It could hack anything . . . Well, almost anything, she amended. She wasn't having much luck with hacking those satellites. She decided to take Dan's advice (even though it sounded more like an order) and look up some background information on Jax. She doubted she'd find anything useful, but she was getting a little frustrated with those satellites. She needed a quick break.
