[And okay, Ragnar's slap on the shoulder is a friendly gesture, it's really obvious that it is. But it still sends Marco off-balance enough that he has to take a step forward and startles him a little. He laughs it off though, and waves a hand.]
Right, right. Formalities. You know, I totally don't know what I was thinking. Guess I'm just intimidated by all this raw Viking power.
[A little grin, and he plops down in the seat across from Ragnar. When he pours Marco a glass full of beer, Marco does his level best not to wince. If he can't be beaten by the Yeerk Empire, one glass of beer, which is totally nasty, won't stop him.]
Thanks.
[Okay. That look is super intense. Marco actually takes a sip from the glass just to get a bit of a reprieve for a moment before he speaks.]
Uh. Talent agent. [A beat, and then he realizes that it probably means nothing to a Viking.] I represent performers, find venues for them to perform in, get them jobs. Pretty lucrative business.
[A pause.]
I'm also a pilot for the Perimeter Guard, with the spaceships. Part-time. Gets boring otherwise, right?
