( Orion was, in many respects, the answer to Shockwave's prayers. There's promise in him, promise and something more that she deeply, deeply suspects. It would take digging, yes, but if there's one thing Shockwave knows how to do, it's to plan and wait.
Politician. Among other things, but Shockwave hasn't lasted in the game as long as she has at her age without learning how to play. But she waves at Orion, dressed warmly, with an accompanying red wool coat. Not as bright as her normal colors, but the coat made up for it as far as Shockwave was concerned.
She slides into the bench next to him, smile tugging at her lips. )
