[Huh. It's... a little unexpected to hear it back, even if she just said it in so many of her own words. She's had a lot of those kinds of roles, the not-friend, the contact, the acquaintance. Just a scenario where she had a name or a description or a job, and they came and they used what she offered and left.

She's been here a few months now. Longer than she thought. But most people haven't tolerated her presence as long as they have, not in a way she believes is more willing than not.

Beau may be impulsive, but she knows how to read a room, knows when something's important. So she does something even weirder for her, and manages an actual smile.]

Then allies, yeah. Whatever name you wanna give it. People who... I'unno, know when to kick the shit out of each other.

[She likes it. That's more than nearly anyone's ever gotten.]
