that's good . y' can come closer , that's fine .
not stopping any time soon .
[ she smiles at them . it's soft . continuing .
strum , hum , strum, hum ... ]
[ she's simply playing . a song , one she made herself .
there's no lyrics yet , just hums and strumming . ]
guess that's a no ...
well — I don't mind y' being here , I just —
[ sitting on the ground — a good distance away . ]
'm just gonna ... play my guitar . I don't wanna stop you from , whatever it is you're doin' .
[ oh .ᐟ that's — that's new . she was just about to play her guitar and now there's someone at her ( semi - permanent ) home . ]
... can I help you — .ᐣ.ᐣ
[ she's not 100% sure on what's happening — but she trusts her , somehow .
so , she closes her eyes , a slight squeeze of her hands . ]
[ she tilts her head , looking at her hands , and then her .
she's a bit confused , but curious , smiling right back . ]
sure , yea .
[ placing her hands onto hers . ]
I usually do that — only because I don't have much to numb it .
I'd do what you do , but —
[ she puts her hand out — and a small fire comes from it . ]
I'd end up burnin' myself . that's why its different .
[ she just kinda — stepped over that body , honestly . she felt bad but — something in her also told her she shouldn't . ]
just these —
[ she shows the files in her hands to him . ]
I just took whatever had the name ' project halcyon ' on it .

[ she watched him — the heat was helping , a relaxing sensation filled her muscle . ]
well , duh — but ... thanks . that helps a lot .
[ she smiles at him softly , injecting herself right on the spot , with a sigh . ]
definitely helps with the pain ...

[ It was something — most of this stuff she figured as much .
portals and such , but — dangerous .ᐣ he couldn't be — she knew what danger was .
... right .ᐣ
no time to think on it now — she scooped up the files she had gotten , rushing out of the office .

[ it made mention of the mam being dangerous -- that he needed to be caught and contained as soon as possible . ]
[ of course , this being a smaller research station , there was not a whole lot in terms of useful information -- but it was definitely something . ]
[ she heard the tumble of the other guy down the stairs — honestly it spooked her for a moment .
but hey — pretty cool he could just take a guy down like that .
back to the rooms , she figured the best way to find anything on the project was he office .

[ the office space had two seats and a decent sized filing cabinet against the wall . the computers were both locked -- and so was the filing cabinet , but that one could probably be picked . ]
so , she decides to check there first . ]
locked ...
[ at least she's good with picking locks for the cabinets — she gets them open using her pen she always used for writing .
comes in handy .
searching through each cabinet —
