Jackhammer looked around at the others, trying to figure out if they were going to take the job, and if they were, how confident they were in success. If it was just a ride-along and everyone else would handle the heavy lifting, who could it hurt? But at the same time, he lost half his company last trip down. There were things down there that just didn't respect any amount of talent, whether magical, martial, or technical. Seemed going "below" was taking your life in your own hands.
But people actually live down there. So there must be just good parts and bad parts, parts you keep your head down and parts you keep the hell out. If they could get a guide this time, one less prone to lady-crazy, they might be alright.
And in the neighborhood of lady-crazy, here was this girl that was the finest looking piece of metahuman Jackhammer had seen since the crazy tour guide. He already knew not to trust women like that. They made it awfully hard to think straight, and Jackhammer had enough trouble keeping his head on straight without all of... that.
But here was this girl that seemed to know Al. See seemed alright. Blind maybe? Or just in AR/VR? Maybe some kind of possessed magician or something? Anyway, she seemed alright. And here Al was, whispering to her like they had some kind of business. Maybe they just both loved dogs? Apparently that beast of a thing was hers, after all. Anyway, they looked pretty mismatched, so there was no way it was like that. She might be worth talking to later. Jackhammer made a mental note to compare tattoos with her when he got the chance.
