I hope we can get along well and work well together. Do you mind if I sit?" Conveniently a spare chair was sitting open, the girl closest to you spoke up. Resting her cards down as she did. "Help me fix us another brew and I'll deal you in." You got a good look at the navy beret as she stood up, the beta symbol rested in the eye of an Octopus. Standing directly before you, it was easy to notice her height. The girl's freckled face only just reaches your chin level, then you really notice. The entire trio were short, not crazy small but while sitting you couldn't notice. Up close it was more apparent, they were all the same height. You found it a little strange, but you aren't one to judge.
You were unsure if different projects had height regulations. The duo left were busy chatting as one shuffled the cards. The short ginger girl busy looking you up and down, measuring you worth without a hint of subtlety. "You don't look special to me." The girl announced and handed you two of the mugs. Without another word she was off, leaving you standing at the table. The others said nothing. Quickly trailing the girl you easily caught up and kept pace with her. She gave you another look, staring into your eyes as she started to speak. "Oh right. I'm Anastasia, just call me Ana. How do you like your coffee? Or are you more of a tea kinda guy?" You hadn't really thought about it, but you felt as if that wasn't the answer the short pilot was wanting.
