39 * Accidental video

[Someone's going through papers on a desk. It looked like it had been organized, once, but that organization had been gone. Rachel's muttering to herself, obviously trying to find something.]

I know it's in here somewhere - who the hell was going through this place...?

...Jesus, where's Bobby Drake when you need an accountant?

[She sees a piece of paper and grabs it.]

Ah-ha! Oh, wait, this is from last month's payroll. Where's...

Holy crap, is this Goodfellow's old tab?

[She shakes her head and goes back to looking.]

This is gonna take forever.

...I guess?

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

Would I have to call you boss, chief, or ma'am?

[starchilde_lost]

Funny, Pryde.

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

I thought so. You gonna be late getting home with all that junk to go through?

[starchilde_lost]

Yeah, but not 'cause of this, I'm gonna go hang out with Brennan for awhile, decompress.

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

That's great! Have fun.

[starchilde_lost]

I certainly will.

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

And then you'll tell me about it right?

[starchilde_lost]

Of course. AS much as I can.

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

I expect details. Oh and if you need help with the accounting stuff I may be able to figure something out. Computer nerds should be able to figure out math.

[starchilde_lost]

Some details I won't share... if there are details that could potentially be discussed and I'm not saying there are.

I might take you up on that.

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

That's so cheap. And mean!

[starchilde_lost]

Kitty, there are some things... I just can't talk about right now, okay?

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

Of...course. Everything okay?

[starchilde_lost]

Just a little shaky on the whole dating thing. That's all.

[Private//Unhackable]

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

With him or just in general?

[Private//Unhackable]

[starchilde_lost]

Either. Both.

A) I'm freaked out about caring for someone I can lose as easily as... easy. And B) his relationship with Shalimar is more... I dunno, intense than I thought. Not like, sexual I think, but more... attached.

[Private//Unhackable]

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

You can...lose anyone Rachel. Just as easily here as we can back home. We both know that...

Attached how?

[Private//Unhackable]

[starchilde_lost]

It's... not my place to say. They're not a couple, but she's like a huge, freaking huge person in his sphere and I can't compete with that.

[Private//Unhackable]

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

According to him or her?

[Private//Unhackable]

[starchilde_lost]

Her mostly, but there was a conversation I saw between them... I am definitely second, a distant second... if that. And I'm okay with it, it's not like this is serious or anything right now, but it just kinda took me by surprise when I realized it.

[Private//Unhackable]

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

Is she the one dating Captain Kirk?

[Private//Unhackable]

[starchilde_lost]

Yeah, Shalimar.

[Private//Unhackable]

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

Well then she has someone that she's romantically involved with and should be close to. So she should back off with him.

[Private//Unhackable]

[starchilde_lost]

It's not... they're like survivors after a disaster, they need each other, or she needs him and he needs to be needed. I dunno, I could sort it out with a deep dive in their heads, but I don't want to.
