It is, but a storm is still something we should clear up regardless. Besides, just because we have it doesn't mean it works yet. The debrief said we'll need some time to make that happen.
[ it did say with research and development that it could do such things so. not immediately. ]
So for now, we'll have to clear our storms by ourselves while we chip away at that problem. While also taking care of our own tasks.
[ a lil thumbs up! then just because it's affection week, gives anise a squeeze to the shoulder gently. ]
I went to school for this sort of thing before I quit and became a bartender... maybe working with the Tesseract will be different than what I'm used to, but science is all about making discoveries. Finding solutions. Changing lives.
[ their expression shifts a bit. something sparks behind their eyes. they sit up straighter. ]
Blake Walker?
[ a faint smile ] We always got saddled with a crapton of work... we were... [ thinking a bit hard about this but then they blink. ] We were trying to research using the CEMs to our advantage. Somehow... with memories, bits and pieces of the soul... it was a long shot but...

Just like mixing drinks.

Okay... we're counting on you. And let me know if I can help!
... Actually, I kind of wanted to ask you about your past research, too... Is this an okay time?
[ figures she'll ask, since thebe is recovering right now... ]

[ pats cot. maybe it'll be a surprising amount tonight. ]
Maybe talking about it will help. What about it?

Do you remember Blake looking into stuff about death, and souls? It sounded like they were working closely with you...

I mean, if there's some way to pick up that research again...

But it's still going to take some time.

I don't know if they went with Blake... whatever happened...
[ distant, kind of sad about that. ]

Some of Blake's notes were discovered earlier... It's how I found out about this. Do you want to look at them?
no subject
Yes. Please.

[ she'll pull up the document on her IRIS and bring up a screen for Thebe to see and scroll through.
it's the w4 research journal. ]

Oh. That's Ryser. Courtney Ryser.
[ nodding quickly ]
Kind of a hot mess, but... wasn't any of my business. She did good work otherwise. Worked with Blake and I in R&D.

Whoever it was, they were Chief of Science before me.

[ she pulls up a copy of the roster-in-progress so they can both see... ]
It's gotta be one of the names here, right?
no subject
Yeah... I... might need a visual if it's possible. In the mean time... I'll try and wrack my brain for them...

We have some videos, but there are a bunch of people I can't really place...
