Aw, thanks. ( sarcastic, but. he doesn't do this for everyone. usually only looks for familiar faces. this time-- )

We had a previous new arrival commit some pretty hefty crimes. I don't want to be stuck on the clean up crew to cover my own ass after any incidents.

( so. kovacs stuck him as someone on the dangerous side, and here he is. )

Still haven't given me your name, though. Milton doesn't count.
