Cat still thinks the Alliance cause was the right one in the War, that it was better to be unified than to go back to the old ways of always-squabbling nations of Earth-That-Was, but she doesn't think the Alliance itself was worthy of that cause. Her opinion crystallized when she was trying to drown her misgivings at a high-class watering hole on Greenleaf during the reunification celebrations (at least, the Alliance-friendly part of the planet was celebrating). That's when she met Gabriel, who had intended to try and provoke her into a duel she would surely have lost, but she found herself dejectedly agreeing with many of his barbs, rather than lashing out. The quick turn in his attitude led to an unexpected friendship that has lasted to this day. | Cat still thinks the Alliance cause was the right one in the War, that it was better to be unified than to go back to the old ways of always-squabbling nations of Earth-That-Was, but she doesn't think the Alliance itself was worthy of that cause.

At least in the lesser leagues, her aging SJ-7 needed less upgrading to keep up, but the purses were much smaller, too. Increasingly unable to support her preferred lifestyle, she took the offered job eagerly, in hopes it would provide more opportunities to come. |
