Dr. Lorentz's Links
Lorentz is completely thrilled by Tess's nonchalance and on-the-edge-of-society roguish lifestyle, free from most obligations and to make her own choices. She finds her attitude a breath of fresh air from the stuffy tech people back at home base, and would give just about anything if it'd make her life and job easier. Also, she's /beautiful/.
Lorentz is the cutest person and Tess could listen to her ramble about her bad coworkers and science stuff forever. She admires her for not letting red tape hold her back. She likes seeing Lorentz flustered, too, and excited about new things. She is a very accomplished woman, and Tess just doesn't want to ruin that with her own reputation.
