Lab time (open)
Like almost always, Valeria was in her lab at the Baxter Building. She had just started her doctorate classes in engineering, and in addition to that, she had a couple of other projects that she was working on, like always.

Valeria had some classical music on (Mozart was a favorite when she was working on homework assignments), and her nose was buried in a book, as she glanced over occasionally to take notes. She had a cot in the side set up, and a whole weekends worth of meals in a mini-fridge, as well as a microwave to heat food.

...If Franklin or someone didn't force her out from time to time, Valeria would probably end up living in the lab. Not that she minded that possibility at all.
