The bonus is typically a bit less liquid and a bit more ... well, liquid. A certain amount of alcohol is traditional. Timesheets also tend to be looser ... but as you won't be living with us, they'll be rather necessary.
Livery too of course, undress and dress. Although you will be supplied with as many sets as needed, it's traditional to provide the first one with the mead.
And I heard from Aral that you're supposed to supply things like medical. So I made sure he knew to keep an eye out for an android-specialist to have on call. You're welcome to join him.
[ Miles hesitates. Then, over the link, he gently unfolds a shy sense of fondness and joy and gratitude. And pride as well - for all that he would have preferred his younger self not have done something so important on a whim, he can't argue with the results. ]
[ Her surprise is evident at that slow wave of emotion. Was it really that simple? She's smiling despite herself and while she's not sending anything over their connection, she's keeping it open and strong rather than pulling away. ]

I'll be sending you over reimbursement reports, by the way. For all the expenses while everyone's ages were out of order.
no subject
Oh, yes. You're owed all that as my armswoman. And we'll have to discuss how much of a raise this deserves.

I kept all my timesheets for when I was on the clock. Your father mentioned on-duty pay vs. off-duty.
I'd think they'd be a raise and a signing-on bonus. This sounds like a contract extension to me.

... Ah, I'll do that as well. There must be someone.

And I'd appreciate it. I've been lucky so far, but if things start heating up, I'd rather know now who to call for repairs.

You don't need to.

Even so.

See you tomorrow, Armswoman Tex.
