Town Hall, Monday

"Belarus, Nate?"

"It is in your region."

"I thought the idea was that I was supposed to stay in Rumekistan."

"It's in your region. Bring Peter some beer. Import."

"Nate? I hate you."

"Sure."

"A lot."

"Good luck, Irene." He clicked off the phone, rubbed the back of his head, eyed the paperwork, and did not externally rejoice at the fact he didn't have to deal with it anymore.

Cable spent most of the day in discussion about post-Nemesis measures, instead. Much more relaxing.

He's out and about!

Talk to the Deputy

[spring-lost.livejournal.com]

Once she pings in, she's here for all your paperwork, conversation, and/or scheduling-meetings-with-the-mayor purposes.

She probably sits down more.

Robin was, indeed, seated. Behind a desk and everything! And -- god, she was so ridiculously happy about this, it wasn't even funny -- she was dressed professionally! She'd spent a good chunk of the prior day sifting through her closet and pulling out the adorable, preppy, lovely collared shirts and pencil skirts that had made up her Metro News 1 uniform.

She was even wearing heels, putting her at a vastly-missed six feet in height when she stood. It was so nice to be back in heels. In like, a grown-up job and everything.

...anyway, Robin was here, sifting through paperwork with her legs crossed and a pen stuck through her hair. She was highly interruptable, however, should anyone find a need to do so.

[but be aware that pings will go unanswered until proooobably like 9 am EST as I'm doing that weird thing where I go unconscious for the next seven hours.]

Sometime during his own lunch break, Fraser went home and got a small lunch consisting of sandwiches, potato salad (made last night), two apples and two bottles of water. He loaded them in a small basket and then headed off to town hall.

He slipped in quietly and kept quiet just in case he was interrupting.

Robin was in the middle of writing out directions for the various unnamed office workers before she forgot (she preferred to think of them as "underlings," personally) and didn't notice who was there, at first.

She did however notice that someone was there, and greeted, "Hello, can I help you?" without looking up from where she was scrawling instructions to order new copier paper.

"Well, yes, but I can come back if you're very busy," Fraser answered. "I should have called."

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

Robin glanced up and grinned, her pen stilling immediately. "Hey, you! I wasn't expecting visits. I'm not super-busy. Sit."

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[just-add-starch.livejournal.com]

"I should have called," he said again even as he took a seat. "I didn't stop to think that you might be overly busy on your first official day."

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"I'm reorganizing so it's easier for me to figure out where everything is," she assured him. "I'm not too busy to take a break, I promise."

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[just-add-starch.livejournal.com]

"How are things going?" Fraser asked. "Are you acclimating all right?"

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

She nodded happily. "I'm acclimating like a thing that acclimates hardcore. Look, I have a desk!"

She was pleased.

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[just-add-starch.livejournal.com]

"Yes, I see," he said and smiled. "I brought you some lunch, if you'd like."

Somewhere amidst talking, projecting, and other such related activities, Cable had made his way over to Robin. "Getting settled?" he asked.

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

She nodded happily. "I've already worked out a system for day-to-day activities, down to the coffee-making, and found a program that will not only keep all your appointments and color-code them, but send out noisy little reminders when they approach. Is there anything I should be doing about the Nemesis Island stuff other than all the paperwork I've been going through already?"

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[spring-lost.livejournal.com]

"Good work. You can deliver these to Constable Fraser by the end of the day," he said, slipping his review of the school defense plans onto her desk. Then he considered the rest of Robin's words, and that brought him to one very important question. "How noisy is 'noisy'?"

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"It makes a little 'ping!' noise," she replied. "Unless I change it to like, a song or something."

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[spring-lost.livejournal.com]

"No hiphop, please," Cable deadpanned in return. He was taking in the entirety of Robin's work for the day, but he mostly seemed to be standing around.

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"I was thinking more like thrash metal," Robin replied, her face perfectly serious.

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[spring-lost.livejournal.com]

His expression didn't change one wit from its serious appearance. "That will help productivity," Cable finished. "So how's the paperwork?"

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"Highlighted, collated, and ready to be sent to appropriate parties for the most part," she assured him, patting her little pile of paper-clipped and be-foldered papers.

Re: Talk to the Deputy

[spring-lost.livejournal.com]

He crossed his arms and nodded, pursing his lips slightly. "Good," Cable said, paused, then added, "How much do you know about the current situation in Ecuador...?"

Renee Montoya is no longer working at the trooper station. Ray Kowalski should be added as employee.
