Terribly dull, this government operative work.

Shame that, I would have hoped it was exciting.

It was when I worked for MI6. James Bond stuff, that. The CIA... dreary by comparison.

Now that's just a shame, figures the Americans would be more boring.

Too many rules and regulations.

(And if you want to be honest about it, I think they've got a bit of a bastard-child complex.)

*teasing* Now don't make me go defending my adopted nation.

*shrugs* Where are you originally from?

Greece. But that was when I was very young.

Greece. I knew a few Greek clones. Well, they'd been born and raised in America, but they were originally Greek.

Really? What kind of clones?

Well, bit complicated that. I'm afraid I don't completely understand the science behind it. They managed to clone quite a few only form stories. Imagine that!

More easily than you'd imagine.

How do you mean?

I may not be a clone but I'm not exactly...standard.

Alright. Tell you what. Why don't you tell me what it is you mean, then I can decide if I want to run off screaming or not. Sound fair?

*laughs softly* That sounds like the best deal I'll get in some time, but I'll agree to it only if you agree not to tell everyone and their mother what I tell you.

Right. I'm the clone of an English traitor that's involved in a joint project with MI6 and the CIA. I think your secret's safe.

A girl can never be too careful. I'm a siren, of the Greek lines. Old enough to remember when Macedonia reigned. But I've lived a much different life than my early years for a long time.

Really? I knew a few clones of - no, wait, that as Muses. My mistake.

Well, what do you do with yourself these days, Miss Siren?

Talk radio, use my voice for good and entertainment these days. Not political or religious, because I'm not into twisting people to my will.

I didn't know that such a thing as non-political talk radio even existed. Learn something new every day!

Does it get boring, being so old?

Humans change too much to be boring and as long as I have my wings, there will always be too much world to explore.

Oh, you can fly? Fancy that.

I used to have the body of a bird, that was stranger.
