Valini sighed and rubbed her temples once more as she stood at the Wall, pictures, notes and sub-report about the new staring back at her. They were waiting for her to find the lynchpin that would identify whoever was behind this string of attacks and all she was doing was making circles. She wanted more information to paint a clearer picture, but that would mean waiting for another attack. "I'd almost take a crime wave done with riddles right about now," she sighed and admitted to the Wall.

	He smiled. "As soon as I get back I'll reserve some time for us and you're going with me." He laughed a little and returned the bow. Women were a challenge with him and he was usually nervous around them, but she was one of the very few who put him at ease. Probably because she did the psych evals every year and he knew her.

"I'll need something stiffer than coffee for that one, Tim." But she wasn't particularly worried, he was the type to what to know every detail possible before doing something.

It was that shrink thing she did so well, easy to trust and open up to. But Tim also knew her long enough to not need shrink-fu to relax. She inhaled and sighed, catching a whiff. "You don't realize how bad you're craving coffee until you smell it."

	"We can get you liquored up /after/," he said with a grin. "I have a batch of lager just made. Perfect for the occasion." "My hands shaking usually tell me that there's too much blood in my caffeine stream." He was mostly joking. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She balked in jest, eyes wide. "What? Do something logical and sensible? Bah, where's the fun in that?" "Can't have that, you'd lose the ability to see through time and quantum mechanics! Then where would our troops find their new toys?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ain't safe to go before hand," he said. "But after you can get as drunk as you like." "Exactly. Though I'm sure they'd find someone else to make their toys for them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And the more drunk she got, the less chance she'd give scrambling up a wall. "Whatever you command, Master Dugan." She gave him a pained looked. "Remember the last batch of trainees they let loose in the R&D department? Didn't one slag a hole in the floor?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Tim just grinned at that. "I think so. It was hard to tell with all that was going on. Though in their defense, we generally destroy parts of the R & D department on a daily basis. Which always makes me wonder why we're on the 'Carrier and not on the ground in some secure facility." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"On the off chance you make a black-hole gun with a mind of it's own, it's easier to crash a carrier than part of a major city, I'd suppose." She patted his arm, reassuringly. "I have faith in you." To make the gun or not let it get out of hand, she didn't really clarify. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Tim grinned. "Thanks. I'll remember you said that when you're stuck halfway up a wall and won't move." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She had to snort at his counter, smirking in approval. "Well played, sir, well played. Okay, I'll behave better. Ish. " (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Tim laughed. "I better get back to the lab before I get the both of us in trouble. Two weeks. Rock climbing. You're going even if I have to toss you over a shoulder and carry you there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2012-06-06 01:00 am UTC (link)
	Laughing, she nodded her acquiescence. "Two weeks. Rock climbing and then sampling many lagers. I'll be ready." Waving him off at the coffee station, she smiled. "Try not to blow us up this week!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I won't! Can't say the same for my co-workers." With that he headed back to the lab. (Reply to this)(Parent)
