Kanaya turned to Dave to introduce herself. "It's nice to meet you, Dave, I assume you belong to Derse? Otherwise I expect I would've made your acquaintance on Prospit a few nights ago." She rummaged in her bag and popped a grape in her mouth.

She waved at Jade in greeting when she arrived, and glanced around to see who they were still missing. Jane and her friend hadn't arrived yet. Neither had Eridan or Nepeta.

She considered Tavros' words when he finally spoke up. "I would certainly appreciate continued meetings as the queen implicated we'd need to improve our teamwork to succeed in whatever endeavor has been tasked to us. It seems practical to maintain a sort of 'support group', in any case. I don't think your self-doubt has any solid foundation, however -- your powers can be easily utilized to protect people. You should believe in what your abilities can make possible."
