The grinning man tipped his head back to the rear of the car. "Probably just a draft in one of the doors. Someone should get somebody to take a look at it."
He gave Pantera a passing glance. It was difficult to tell exactly what he assumed the panther was. At the moment, he seemed content to assume the cat was both with the woman and incapable of joining the conversation at the moment at least in English. And that was good enough to continue. He held back when Halcyon gave him a chilly welcome to the seat. "I can stand then." he said happily, leaning on the back of the empty chair and sipping his drink. He held out a hand as she asked his name. "Crowshaw." he said with a grin. "And you? It's my pleasure." he said, putting a hand on his chest. He shrugged a little, swirling his drink as he looked down into it. "Merely came over to say hello. A mutual acquaintance informed me of... the offer on the table." he sipped his drink but kept his eyes on her. Halcyon recognized what was going on immediately. He hadn't come to talk. He hadn't come to say hi. He had nothing to say and didn't expect her to either. He was here to size her up. And Pantera too. And anyone else he'd noticed out of the crowded passenger car. It was just part of the handshake of two experienced running teams meeting. The only question remained was whether one of the sides had a knife behind their back in the other hand. It wasn't very trusting. But it was at least prudent in this line of work. Especially on this kind of job. Jackby had time to scan over the group thoroughly. There was some ware, nothing to write home about. Subtle upgrades here and there. Likewise there was a bit of magic. Nothing so powerful as to tip the scales. The MAD scanner flipped right out though. Nothing more than a small holdout on the suited man who'd come to see Halcyon but the rest of their group was certainly packing some firepower. They had a couple of heavy looking bags with them too. Not on the whole unlike Frost's. It wasn't overly sinister though. They'd come prepared to play, just like their own group. "Well. It is a long train ride. I expect we'll see each other. Or if not maybe in Sanfran. Good evening." he added with a tip of his head. With a flick of his finger to his commlink, he passed Halcyon some contact details. The commlink wasn't a disposable metalink or anything but it wasn't fancy enough for someone dressed like him. Probably a burner. And even then the contact he sent her was layered with enough proxies and passthoughs and redirects to make a proper corporate spy blush. At least they took security seriously.
