A wicked, cheerful grin crossed the young Russian's features as the man whom she was waiting for, this time recognizable to her, came into view, and started for the small wooden table she occupied. Dressed smartly in a grey suit with a deep crimson vest, Maddeus Finch was greeted with a quick friendly hug, something he should by now have expected from Karen. Once they both had taken up seats in a quiet corner of the local, overpriced consumer haven that is a chain coffee shop, they set to work, Finch setting to asking his questions.

"So, Karen, as you've heard, Saint Corp has disbanded, but a new, erm, business of sorts has since risen in the last year." He started, his fluent Russian accent showing their motherland kinship. "And as you have reapplied for work their, I wanted to interview you to check that you are not only prepared to pull your own as everything is set up, and that we can trust you."

Thinking her answer over for a moment, Karen nodded, folding her hands together on the table. "Yes. I am prepared ta help vit' anyt'ing needed, sir." She smiled crookedly before continuing. "I can, erm, vhat is vord... ah. I can assure j'oo that I vill not pull anyt'ing. J'oo have me vord." Granted her accent was far thicker then his, it was still understandable, and got her point across.

"Now, the last time we spoke, you were addicted to drugs, were you not? This could potentially cause problems if you are still on them." He said once she was finished, wanting to check on her current sanity status, seeing as hiring a ticking time bomb can't be good for business.

"Oh, sir, I have quit those, yes yes. Is much easier to remember t'ings now. I even have job, stable living place, will be far more help, ja?"

This answer seemed to please him, or so it showed to her. After several more questions and whatnot were exchanged, Finch rose from the table, as did Karen, and they exchanged handshakes. "Good, good. Miss Sokolova, welcome to Pyrce Industries. Report in on Monday." And with that, he departed stage left, as did Karen several minutes later, quite upbeat now.
