"So far." She shrugs, but it's not off the table that Carver will someday try something on with one of them - in fact she'd bet money on it. Until then though, there's a kind of camaraderie he seems to be willing to entertain as well, so she'll claim him as one of hers.
"And I'm glad I have Jesus." That part is unequivocally good by her estimate. "I don't take that for granted, you know?"
"Good," Drake says softly, expression thoughtful. Too many people do, and although he didn't expect Rosita would since Jesus said he's dead too... it's still good to hear it.
"It's a backup. I'm not just going to let him hang, or vice." Now or ever.
"But we both figure if we can find some other connections it would be for the best. He's always liked meeting new people anyway, and I'm not his type."
"Yeah, that's what I heard, but that's not how the language reads."
There's a very specific line about being able to provide for a Submissive's sexual needs, and she supposes that could be just giving them free rein to find someone they're attracted to and comfortable with, but she's wary all the same.
"And we don't need things to go weird between us if it can be settled another way. I'll manage, but I'm still pretty new."
"The language is vague enough people find all kinds of loopholes. Some even get away with making quota without having sex themselves... so if it's ever prison or signing with someone you're not into that way, all that matters is you trust them."
If that trust isn't there, a sub could actually take pretty bad advantage of her, but Drake figures Rosita is smart enough to realize that herself.
"You know - before the world as we knew it ended where I'm from, I was working at a law firm. I never thought I'd use that bullshit ever again." It had, in fact, been especially useless in the world they were left with instead.
And now here she is. "If I can get my hands on some samples, I'll make it work - for me, and for whoever." But he keeps mentioning trust and he's not the only one, and Rosita knows for a fact there's only one person here she does.
"Yes and no. I make friends wherever I go, you know? But there's friends and there's friends."
