"Seventy-five percent financial investment, with marketing rights for any applications of my research to you, and retention of intellectual rights for applications to other projects.

I'm currently under a non-exclusive contract to the Leap Foundation, but they're exhausting my patience, thus, I'm seeking alternate facilities for an additional project." She gets right down to brass tacks.

Julian listens to what the good doctor is asking for. While it doesn't seem like much, she does seem to want more than most. On the other hand, she's much more agreeable to his manner than Dr. Bradley is. The man was like a walking snark factory, and Julian did not care for snark.

She needs to feel Howard out more first, before showing that hand.

	There's a heartbeat of hesitation, as she keeps herself from correcting him to 'Professor', but she replies cordially. "I'll look forward to it, and have some preliminary paperwork to show you. Is there anything else I can provide to make our formal introductions go smoother, Mister Howard?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
