Emma Frost	It's a quiet evening over at Starrware. The latest reports have come in, costs are high, income is (likely) not as high as it needs to be, and things are on their normal shoestring. Karen's in her office with her secretary heading out shortly while Karen is (likely) going to be staying up doing reports.     There's a knock on her office door. "Darling, still here?" It's Emma
Karen Starr	Karen looks up from her position at the desk. Since it's after hours, she's relaxed a bit. The blazer is off, so are the heels, and she looks up and smiles as she sees Emma there at the door. "Hey...sorry, /zrhueiao/. Work got away from me some." She looks a little sheepish. "I'm likely to be at least an hour or so.
Emma Frost	Emma Frost would laugh, "Oh, darling? I'm presuming that's something in your language? I'm not sure if it's calling me something like adored or an obscenity at the state of things." She would go to tease over. "Of course, far from the first late night we've all had running things. I just finished up my own board meetings. Amazing how much efficiency improves when you fire some of the ones ever so legally close to skimming off the top."
Karen Starr	"Beautiful." Karen offers, smiling. "Of course, you could always pluck the meaning out of my head. And Starrware is an R&D thinktank. A lot of brilliant people who aren't necessarily the best at organization. Or business. Of course, it's partly a way for me to leak some Kryptonian tech to Earth, in a controlled way and pace."
Emma Frost	Emma Frost would smile, "Thank you dear. But I don't want to intrude on something unless it's necessary." She would lean over and take a seat. "So is getting the technology to Earth something for you to do to help yourself acclimate here or for a greater way to help improve the planet?" Or a way for Kara to help engage with humanity?
Karen Starr	"More that latter. I mean...I can always re-create anything I want for my personal use. Well, to the extent of the technology here. And there are a couple Kryptonian facilities here on this planet. This is more "well, I can leak some of the stuff that they aren't likely to misuse that will help them."
Emma Frost	Emma Frost would nod at Karen thoughtfully, "Very well. And also give yourself a name." She would take her hand over to softly squeeze at Karen's hand. "It's a good way to go about it. And it gives you a fresh start here."
Karen Starr	"It helps." Karen squeezes Emma's hand. Gently of course, not with any bone crushing force. "I'm doing all right. Overall, at least. I'm more settled in on things than I have been for a while."
Emma Frost	Emma Frost would smile, "Good, that's the point of it. It helps to not let yourself be purely defined by one thing." Then again she was HARDLY one to talk when it came to that by reputation. Squeezing Karen's hand back.
