[A long, annoyed sigh. Lisbeth doesn't really like to apologize - hell, some would even say it's not in her vocabulary. But from what she experienced in the past week, there were a few people she cared about enough to apologize to for her unbridled behavior.]

If I was excessively agitated or violent towards you, I'm sorry.

Except for that Sylar asshole.

[A simple shrug.]

Two weeks, maybe.

[ And his nod is equal to nothing, too. ]

Probably not such a bad thing. Don't think I caught your name?

[hejhej]

You can call me Wasp.

Until I know I can trust you.

[gabriel_gray]

Well that might be a while: I'm a politician.

Name's Nathan. Nathan Petrelli.

[There's an amused expression on her face before she once again turns serious.]

Then don't take offense when I try to avoid you at all costs, Nathan.

[ He raises both of his hands in quiet surrender. ]

Listen, we're both on the same side, here. Sylar bad, right?

[hejhej]

Doesn't mean you might not have some skeletons in your closet. Like you said, you're a politician.

[But maybe Irene would get along better with Mr. Petrelli.]

[gabriel_gray]

Doesn't everyone? People do things that they aren't proud of every day. With me, the only difference is that my skeletons are all turned out in a suit and tie.

[Well, that last part was charming, but she doesn't show any reaction to it. She merely tilts her head.]

That's very true. It seems to be a common thing among all of us here.

Common thing among people in general. My wife-- [Ex-wife. ] --she's a saint, wouldn't say a bad word about anyone. Her skeletons are mostly chocolate covered, but she's still not proud of them.

[ He's just effortlessly charming, okay. ]

In any case, I'll see what I can do about your Sylar problem. Figure I bear a little of the responsibility there.

[A pause.]

I have a friend who's a little warmer than me. If she trusts you, then so will I.

video;

[gabriel_gray]

Does this friend have a name?

video;

[hejhej]

Irene Nesser. She's very smart. I think you'll like her.

[gabriel_gray]

Then I'll look forward to chatting with her. Until next time, try and be careful. You survived this time, but people don't tend to come out of scrapes with Sylar twice.
