*He smiled and looked down at the female warrior. He greeted her friendly, but without losing his dignity.*
"My name is Menelaus, King of Troy. I need a good warrior for an important mission."
*He smiled warmly.*
"And I have heard that you are among the best."

"You have heard correctly."
*Miko was never one to be unduly humble*
"But I am no hired thug. I will serve as the law allows, but I shall never perform otherwise."

*King Menelaus smiled gently. He had heard about her people's sense of honor. That was why he had come to her first. He was a man of honor himself, always playing by the rules.*
"I know you are no hired thug. I have heard your people have a great sense of honor and serve as the law allows. That, and the fact that you are among the best warriors were the main reasons why I contacted you."
*He looked questioningly at her.*
"May I offer you something to drink before I tell you about the mission?"

Menelaus smiled gently. He did not know what sort of drinks this place had to offer. In Sparta, the Wine Bodega's had several sorts of drinks to chose from.
"Thank you. What would you like to drink?"

((*Trying to remember if Miko ever drank in the comic*))
"If they have red wine, I'll take that, though this does not strike me as quite that sort of place."

((I can't remember if she did, either.))
Menelaus nodded and went over to the counter. As a Greek, he too preferred red wine, even though he knew that many men in this part of the world preferred beer. He had also seen what too much of that stuff could to a man, and right now, he needed to think straight. Amazingly enough he succeeded in ordering two glasses of red wine. He returned to the table and placed one glass in front of Miko.
"I hope the quality is good enough, though I wouldn't be too sure on a place like this."
He said with a smile as he sat down by her table.

((I thought you hadn't read her comic?))
*Miko decided it was time for business*
"What sort of mission do you offer?"

((I didn't until yesterday. But I googled her. She seems like an interesting character.))
Menelaus became serious.
"The mission is to seek, and find, my wife Helen. She ran away after the fall of Troy. When she is found, I want her brought back to me. She is cunning and will likely try to hide. That's why I don't need thugs on this job. It takes intelligence to trace her. As for the payment, you can name your price."

"A woman who has broken the law that binds her to her husband must feel the full punishment she deserves!"
*Miko named a reasonable price*
"I am only too happy to return to work as an agent of civilization."

"Thank you. I knew you would understand. I am honored to have you working for me."
*Menelaus paid the price she wanted.*
"I will be happy to give you any information you need about my wife. Please feel free to ask me anything you like."

*HK-47 had been frequenting the various locales of Paris, pulling some breaking and entering, performing a hit or two and generally acting like an ass. This particular day, he'd planned on visiting some of the local bars, if for no other reason than to whittle away some time until he found his next contract. Loathe as he was to spend more time in the company of meatbags than necessary, there was a distressing lack of alternatives.
Having found this particular haven for warriors, HK was forced to slightly change his opinion of meatbags in general. Slightly being the key term. He was still rather unimpressed with the species as a whole, but would make do for the time being.
As he looked around, his head constantly jerking right and left as part of protocol, he managed to catch some of the conversation between Menelaus and Miko. Never one to pass up a good job, he walks up to the table the two are at, blaster pistol attached to his back.*
"Statement: I could not help but to overhear your conversation, mea- ahem, organics. It seems that you are in need of someone's services. Someone like... me, for example. Do you need someone killed?"

*King Menelaus turned his head, arching his eyebrows in surprise when he saw a piece of metal moving around without help. It looked like a piece of armor, only he didn't see any humans hiding behind it. Remembering the Trojan Horse he kept his eyes warily on the figure as he replied. His voice was remarkably calm for a Spartan King in meeting with his first droide.*
"Before I answer that question... who do I have the honor of adressing?"

*HK merely slips into a seat across from Menelaus, then brings his hands up to the table and clasps them together.*
"Introduction: I am Hunter-Killer Model 47. As you can tell from my name, I hunt and kill any meatbags unfortunate enough to be on the receiving end of my blaster."
*HK's voice sounds disturbingly gleeful.*

*King Menelaus watched him warily, not really sure what to think. He looked over at Miko, as if to ask her what she thought about this. Then he turned over to the talking metal thing again.*
"Meatbags?"
