[Zhao chuckled sheepishly.] Eh, well, be more specific next time. [He's grinning anyway, nonchalant.] Yeah, the whole building a "character" thing for our undercover persona thing was reminiscent of some table top game or another. I'm more familiar with video games so I think of that. There are some a lot alike anyway.

[He did make sure they weren't going to be overheard when he mentioned the 'undercover' part. The rest could be explained off more reasonably but that seemed best not to reveal in any capacity. No sense in making things harder on themselves.]
