Well that patrol had been...eventful. After bringing Sage back to Cabal and dealing with that mess, the halls seemed awfully quiet. Perhaps that's what many would be grateful for, but at the moment Rozalin wanted anything but stillness. It let her mind wander to places and things, like the little thing she'd burned up in the bar. Artificial symbiote, and determined at that. The thing had actually had enough fire in it to try and fight her back with the knife she'd stabbed it with. The memory brought a small smirk to the pirates lips as she made her way to her squadmate's dorm. She almost liked the thing for its spunk.
Flipping her hair over her shoulder, she shifted her shirt and brushed away imaginary dirt with a small, amused smile. This was going to be fun.
"Care for a little company, partner?" she asked, knocking on Preston's door.

Preston was in his room, going over some of his notes when the knock at his door came.
"Come in."
He didn't mind some company, it might help him to figure out where he wanted to go first.

She slipped into his room when he responded, shutting the door behind her. As expected, he was hard at work on...something. He had more than one project at any time, that she knew of.
"Hard at work, I see." She sauntered over to his table.

"Always."
He'd say, slowly pushing himself away from his desk so he could stand while she entered.
"How may I help you today Roz?"

"Oh? What would that be?"

"A little something I found on my way back tonight." She unbuttoned the first couple of buttons on her shirt, exposing her cleavage more. A bit of white fabric peeked out from it.
"I thought you might be interested."

"And you found it in your shirt?"
He raised an eyebrow, but if she was putting on a show he'd not stop her.

"More like I needed a place for safe keeping." Roz chuckled and undid another button, then raised a brow at him.
"I guess the real question is if you're curious enough to find out what it is."

"How could I not be?"
This seemed purely good for him.

She chuckled, letting her shirt buttons unhook a little lower so that the flesh of her torso was just starting to show. It looked like tonight was a plunge neckline night.
"Let's make this interesting, shall we? I'll give you three guesses for what it is. For every one you get wrong, I close a button and you undo one of yours."

"So I guess on what your surprise is that can be anything. Or I undo a button? The odds seem a bit stacked don't you think?"
He'd say, adjusting his glasses.

"Pirate." She grinned and shrugged, various body bits moving along in motion.
"Very well, I'll give you a hint to make it easier for you. It's rare here - most places, really - and it used to be alive. I guess."

"Hmmm."
He'd tap his chin. He could figure this out.
"Well, it's rare. And dead. Dead implies it used to be alive. So you probably are not talking about a plant. And you probably are not smuggling a dead animal in your bra..."
Rare. Could be crystals? No, those don't live. Why would she bring it to him? She had to know it would be something he was interested in. Related to his research? Maybe?
"A dead symbiote?" He'd pause a second. "Another one, since I assume the one on your face is alive still."

She laughed as he mulled through the possibilities.
"No, I'm not," she promised. Worse than those moments in history where people carried dogs around in their purse, but amusing. "And Ari is very much alive and well," she added as the symbiote gave her the impression of flipping Preston off.
"Close enough." She buttoned one of her buttons, fingers gliding up to remove the folded fabric and handing it to him, eyes alight with mischief at the memory.
"It tried to challenge me to a duel tonight. With a steak knife."
