Richard. Richie. [Both are correct, and in the interest of wanting to be right he gives her the complete answer.] The only time I get called Richard is when my brother's pissed off at me about something.

[Taking his cue from her, Richie holds his own knife close. It seems like more than coincidence that his previous environment and this one has included fighting alongside someone named Kate. It's a common enough name, but the universe has its way of pulling people in certain directions.]

Last Kate I knew wasn't nearly as good with a knife. [a chainsaw tho...] Are you used to killing or something?
