[ Awkward if you guys thought you were the only ones here...

Anyways, there's two familiar Senior Crew members of red and blue. Adrastea seems to have already been here, situated in the back of the room near the cots and pods. Whereas Metis arrives a bit belatedly and seeming in a bit of a rush? They will take a moment to check in with a few here before making their way to Adrastea.

Looks like they're up to something..? ]

[dropoffs]

[ Metis takes a moment to take off their helmet to set aside, though still seems to have a hood pulled over their head as they situate themselves in a seat. ]

I do not mind, Adrastea. I have watched Io do it a few times now so it'll be alright.

[ Their voice undisguised by the helmet is soft, warm, even as they move to start... extracting some blood from their left arm. OKAY SURE. ]

[tombtaker]

[ oh its just blood rituals okay well that's normal carry on then. ]

[dropoffs]

[ yeah nothing weird ]

[naeddre]

[ what ]

[dropoffs]

[ IT'S FINE.... ]

[dropoffs]

[ adrastea doesn't take their helmet off just yet, as they oversee what metis is doing. ]

If you're certain of it, I won't stop you. I'm asking Io where the scanner was stashed, now, but don't draw too much. We don't need a lot.

[dropoffs]

I wouldn't think of it.

[ A quick simple extract, nothing more or less. Which they'll pull their sleeve down afterwards, especially to cover the glimpses of blue on that arm. ]

Mayhap it would have been better were they to oversee... well, we can sort out the examination just fine.

[dropoffs]

[ giving them a bit of A Look as they pull the sleeve down, but their fox tails twitch and they go back to texting. ]

They've been in here every single night so far. We're perfectly equipped to run a scan without them.

We haven't used the scanner in a while... apparently it's in a box on top of the storage units.

[frotag]

Dude that's your inside blood.

[dropoffs]

That it is. [ A hint of amusement. ] Necessary for our examination.

[frotag]

[ pulls himself up to get a little more proper look at what they're up to ]

...you guys doing research?

[expiries]

...Is everything alright?

[dropoffs]

That is our hope. [ That sounds ominous? Hm, right, try again - ]

We are planning to do a proper scan of nanites.

[expiries]

...It's been weeks and you haven't done that already?

[i'm sorry]

[tombtaker]

[ still just. hanging out on a cot. still smoking! ]

What the fuck are you doing.

[dropoffs]

[ without looking up from their I.R.I.S. texting: ]

Extracting blood so we can scan and look at the nanites.

[tombtaker]

[ he tilts his head. interested. actually. ]

Need assistance?

[dropoffs]

Volunteering? Might not be a bad idea to get a few different samples, or at least more observers.

[inquired]

[ unimpressed stare at adrastea in particular ]

[dropoffs]

[ what. ]

[inquired]

Tell me that you don't think the two of you are being subtle.

[expiries]

Do you absolutely have to be doing this tonight.

[dropoffs]

No, but we're here anyways. Better to be productive.

[ mostly because you all are. ]

[expiries]

...Just be certain not to upset her.
