They both had turned to look at James, though neither of them looked even on the verge of happy.
But even Ren had his limits and he even glared at James as he played into Jelena's rulling. "I'm not having anything done, unless I have Roselyn." And there it was he used her full name, yes, Mr. Crysix was quite peeved now. He let out an exasperted sigh and pivoted on his heel. "Fine, fine, tell her that I'm getting thrown on the workbench and that I need her." And he pushed pass James to go wander for a bit to cool down.
Jelena flung a file to her desk and then let out an exasperted sigh. "Tension." She ran a hand through her hair and looked to James. "No, as Erik told me she had a family emergency, her father went into ICU back on Earth and she was needed at home."

Rosey's sensitive SHAD's had picked up the voices as they normally did when she did not play with her volume. But instead of it just being her free time of listening to whatever, she thought she picked up her name and some tense not to happy voices, no other specific words, so she slipped on her sandals and left her room.
Walking not very far she found Dr. Trevale and James talking, in her usual quiet voice she hesitated only a moment, "Something wrong?" But then she ran through whether she was missing an appointment or not, thankfully she was sure she wasn't.

"I see. any news on what's wrong with him, or how long she might be? The man was fairly well know if I recall in your communities, heard anything about it at all? And thanks to recent upgrades, I won't be working with Catalyst for awhile, so I can help Erik with the echoes if needed. Upgraded memory, Computer Override and Intercept Network, My cannon got some needed readjustments, minor software and wiring upgrades, in case you were interested."
A small nod to her, and a glance at where Rennel had taken off to.
"And it seems even Sunshine can get an overcast now and again."

Jelena rubbed at her temples then looked to Rosey. "Just stress, and Rennell is being troublesome again." A gesture to James. "He was just coming to see what was wrong with Lilia, or rather her father. See, Lilia had to ship back home for a time being."
Another look to James. "Correction James, in Earth scientific circles, not in Fleet ones. He's one of my many opposer though, I know that much. Lilia didn't say anything to me ore to Erik really, she just said it was urgent and needed to go as Erik tells me." A shake of her head and a smile. "In tip top shape then James."
Then she looked back to Rosey. "Ah yes, speaking of sunshine, Rennell wanted me to tell you that he's getting thrown on the workbench." She shrugged as if the phrase was completely foreign to her. In all truth, Jelena didn't really know much outside of her own Project. "Then he stalked off."

Rosey raised an eyebrow then looked down at the ground, knowing exactly what the phrase meant, so he got an appointment, and Lillia had to go back home. She was found then had to leave again like that. But she was reassured by the fact that she was right, James was not there to drag her to come godforsaken appointment she had forgotten. They talked about the maintenance so casually, though I guess it would be like that for some. She started walking past them in the direction Rennell seemed to have stomped off in, but in case she couldn't find him hung back for one more question, it was her prompting that sent him there, she said she would be with him so she had to know. "Did he say when he was being thrown on the workbench?" And it was unusual for Ren to stalk.

Jelena kicked at her desk with some sort of dislike for it as she crossed her arms then looked up to Rosey. "No, he just said to tell you that. Though he seemed rather urgent about it...I think it's safe to say within the next couple of days or so."
Rennell was standing on one of the observation decks on Envision. There were a few of these little places, almost like a little plaza really...good place to relax. A vast pane of standard fleet glass served as a rather nice viewing spot of the space outside the cruiser and the Earth below, one could also see some of the other's cruisers in the fleet. He sighed and flexed his wings out of mere need to do so. Or so he felt he needed to move them.

Rosey watched Dr. Trevale with an inquisitive look and would have asked her some questions were she a bolder personl, but then maybe she would ask later, right now she was concerned with Rennell, so she just sort of nodded to Jelena and mumbled, "I will see you later." Before rushing off.
After checking the security gate to see if he was hanging around right there she continued searching and searching until she finally found him at one of the observation decks not in his normal happy go lucky sickening mood that usually got to partience again. He was not even bugging anyone nearby as usual. With the quietness her of her nature she shuffled up to him and tapped him on the shoulder, "Ren?"

His wings fidgeted from the touch on his shoulder before they settled once more. He didn't even look at her as he rested his hands on the railing before him and gave a sigh. "Awe inspiring, isn't it?" One hand lifted and then swept out, motioning the view outside that pain of thick plexy glass. He was indeed quiet, a bit reserved.
Not usual behavior, but this sort was often shown from him when something of change came about. He was used to it and accepted it, but tended to not be too friendly to it when it did come his way. But it was also from building frustration of being thrown out of place after place.
"Rose bud...am I difficult to be around?" Oh, it was one of those moments. He was in a little 'Renny slump' as Rosey often called these moments in a form of teasing him and getting him to tease back to brighten his mood sometimes. The he smiled and turned to her, leaning back on the railing with his hands and shook his head like he never ansked the question. "Good to see you out and about."

James smiled lightly.
"Yes, tip top shape. and you should know somethign of your enemies. that's just good defensive measures. speaking of which. you might want to have your computer security upgraded. my upgrades give me access to everything in the fleet. even your encrypted echo files aren't safe from me anymore."
A small chuckle, it was a way to keep this place's security intact. become a security threat and then tell teh boss. especially with her Echoes.
"And you know if I can do it, then other government agencies can and maybe some of your opponents as well in teh medical field."

"Of course you presume that I keep ALL the information I have on my dear Echoes in the computer. Well in my main I don''t. I keep everything on paper still, and locked away where only I know. But then there''s of course the MISSED system...wait, only I can access that, no matter what your upgrades." Sure they upgraded him but there were certain levels of securities that she had that were just plain frustrating to hack. But of course she would be pass coding some more things simply out of paranoia.
Then she smiled. "Besides if I found you were messing where you shouldn''t I would get a screwdriver and personally take you apart myself." Then she leaned against her desk. "Then I will rat you out to my boss and then how much fun you have. You know the big boss in Radiance is fickle about the security of all the projects...best not get yourself in trouble."

Rosey sighed, oh great. She shifted her weight and watched the floor then toed at his feet with hers, alternating between one and the other, "But you can not have a Renny slump, you have to be oddly cheerfu to the workers, and charm them with your ways." She stopped shuffling her feet and pushing them agianst his to look up at him. "Yes I am back out and about, I heard your voice with theirs." But her head tilted to the side and she thought with that small smile of hers, opening it to speak a peice of upbet logic she did not often offer, "You are difficult to be around yes." Wait upbeat? Oh that was coming, "Only because most people are not as happy as you and they get jealous that you can be in such a good mood so often. It is a problem with them, not you and nothing something you should change for anyone." Then her quiet came back and she looked out the window as he had been doing.

"You're MISSED system is about three months out of date. I'm state of the art as of today. but your right it is a big annoyance to get into. and I didn't go messing, just got in."
Then a raised brow.
"A screwdriver? come on I'm a bit more complicated than that. but you got a point. you know I don't go messing with things, I just see if I can get in, then tell you if you need to update your securities. the best way to prevent hacking, is to have a state of teh art hacker see if he can crack the system."

"Such bold words from the girl who is often not bold." But he smiled at her playful little gestures then jut laughed and grabbed her about the neck in a mock head lock as he mussed her hair. "Charm them with my ways eh? Why just today I have already been thrown from two places and no on seemed happier about it?"
He let her go, giving a poke to her nose. It was always rather easy to get him back into high spirits. Another laugh from him. "So it's jealousy is it? Then I guess I should feel superior then and hold my head high." And he lifted his chin in the air to play it up. He laughed again, happy as ever in the presence of his friend. Then he looked considerate. "So you heard us did you? We weren't hurting your ears were we?"
Jelena shook her head. "You and your hacking. I swear James Moira someday you're going to hack into something you rather would have not. Or something to that effect." Then a devilish smile. "Yes, a screwdriver. Doesn't matter how complicated you are, never dash the classics James. Who knows, I may even use the good old hammer on you as well." A laugh from her as she ran a hand through her hair once more.
Then she took to looking insulted. My MISSED system is only out of date because there is so much that needs to be done with it. Between keepings disaster from happening and genetic coding and then the filing, I have barely any time to enter that data." And James knew that she wouldn't let anyone touch that computer but herself. "Just a few days ago, Erik caught me asleep at the keyboard."

She shook to get out of his embrace but then he let her go anyway. Roselyn stood a moment and fixed her hair before folding her arms together again and looking to the floor. Well she was only bold when he was down and that was not often. "Yes dumby you have to charm them." But now she was going to be bold and mean. Wrinkling her nose at the poke, "No, I could only hear faint things, me ears were not turned up that much, mainly listening in another room ctually." Oops admission but to get his mind off that she reached into he pocket and held up his PAID tag, she had slept in enough and he had to come get her when he needed her. So with a little smile she held that tag up and then behind her back, "You want it?" Another bigger smile.

James smirked some.
"Is that to mean that you'd going to start putting viruses in files for me to get infected with? and I todl you before I could update that system in about twenty minutes with my augmentations if you would let me sit at teh keyboard. it wouldn't kill you, you know."
A hammer and a screwdriver. what wonderful imagery.
"Oh you coudl try it. I'm sure. but I wouldn't use a screwdriver around five tazer loaded fingers. might be a shocking experience."
Oh dear. James made a funny!
