[ technically, she's a "fashion diva" but as a job that hardly makes any sense. whatever tasks she is made to do, however, cinder doesn't find the work to be all that tiring. she wears clothes and is paid. things like photoshoots and runaway walks are rarer occurrences than most would assume models were inclined to. so with yet another loll of her head, she makes a superfluous gesture. ]
It pays.
[ proficient as she in acting, cinder can't help but be quite bored over the roles ceres has given her. she has so many talents. all of which could be used on something much more meaningful than... posing. but that's what she was resigned to. at least, out of the two of them, one sound enthusiastic about her role here. ]
Ahaha~! Nobody in particular right now. I've been doing contract work for events, whenever people need their security beefed up or something more discrete than an entire line of men in black. It's good pay, especially for the time I need to put in, but mostly I just train in ViViD.
[ So you know, if somebody wants to hire her long term, the option is always open. Training, teaching, and fighting are the only things Nanoha's especially good at, so she'll always take the chance to use these skills both for the greater good and to fill her rice bowl, and when you're doing something you love, there's no reason to be anything but enthusiastic. ]
So you'll protect anyone who pays? ... Interesting.
[ even though it might not have been nanoha's intention she makes a considerably good sales pitch. whether she's aware of it or not. cinder could definitely use security (for what yet she doesn't know) and any time she can choose to be discreet is an option that's considerably advantageous. hmm... nanoha is strong but she'd like to see a little more. is this a job interview now? perhaps. ]
I might not be able to pay you right now but if we get out of here expect to be rewarded considerably.
[ because cinder hadn't really just been walking around. she'd been buying some time to respawn the familiar beast nanoha just shot down moments before. it appears in a clearing a little ahead of them and growls, aggressively, in their direction. ]
That isn't mine.
[ which is a blatant lie but given that it seems to come at them, does nanoha really have time to shoot her and be certain or shoot the monster that's charing towards them? cinder looks ready to jump out of the way with whichever action nanoha decides. ]
[ Nanoha doesn't really work for the money so much as she is just a born workaholic, but she's not nearly well-off enough to complain about getting a little extra. ]
So let's take care of whatever's in front of us, shall we?
[ She's the only one fighting here, so if anyone asks she's talking to her Device.
A monster she turned to dust with one shot the first time around probably wasn't going to be a big deal for them. At least, that's what Nanoha thought as she fired another beam at it. The Divine Buster worked last time, so why fix what's not broken, right? ]
[ it more or less works the same way. the monster that had been roaring up a storm, mowing down trees; will easily be disintegrated in a one-shot kill. it's not that cinder respawned it with the hopes of injuring nanoha but instead to analyze this so called "divine buster" attack. the people here don't rely on dust, semblance and aura like those from the real so this is... a learning experience.
her hand raise to her hips as if preparing to witness a great show. and really, that's not untrue. before nanoha attacks though (because they can spare the time) she turns her head to her almost like she's about to give her a pep talk. except not really. ]
Before you do, you're going to have to tell me exactly why "buster" is so "divine" once you're done with it.
[ and don't think that nanonha's "device" doesn't pique cinder's curiosity either. ]
[ The pink beam turns the monster into its constituent bytes, tearing through dirt and foliage as easily as it did its target, and Nanoha smiled at a job well done, turning back to Cinder to answer her question. ]
Divine Buster is just a name, it's a pure magic blast.
[ Thematically Nanoha's spells were mostly named for celestial bodies. The stars and heavens, as someone of the sky. There was nothing actually holy about them though. As far as Nanoha knew, gods and angels didn't exist. Besides, according to her opponents, she was more demon than god. ]

... A bodyguard? For who?

Raising Heart decided it sounded good.
