An over six feet tall, wirey black haired, male rocket scientist stalked forward towards his goal. A small opened up laptop, which was at the moment stuck in cycle of 'fu-fu-fu-fu-fu-fu', like it was trying to read a scratched up CD. Out of nowhere, the scientist, named Ezekiel, pulled out a stick and poked the malfunctioning technology. And then it blew up.


Of course, this was not really happening in the psychical world, which became quiet apparent as the whole thing seemed to rewind, with the normally cool-headed man grabbing a mallet out of sub-space and smashing the laptop up(and then having it blew up). This was all happening inside Ezekiel's mind.

A breathy laugh and the suddenly shaking with laughter curled up mewtwo tipped off Ezekiel that his mind was being invaded. The man was sitting at his desk, glaring at his normally efficient laptop, however, a week ago, in a conference with some of the higher up, when he tried to use it to explain his latest progress, instead of using the normal male-voice setting, the laptop began to squeak out his report in a high-pitched voice.

Ezekiel could still hear the roaring laughter of the executives in his head. The mute had filled out a form for his laptop to be repaired at once, but here he was. A week later and with no report back of when he could get it fix. Upon opening it to turn it on this morning to see if he could fix it himself, he got shocked by the keyboard. This is what had led to Ezekiel to have his macabre fantasies of destroying said laptop and the now laughing mewtwo. Technology had never been his strong suit.

Project Heal calmed down from his laughter and laid back down on the mat set on the floor of Ezekiel's private lab/room. The scientist's room and bathroom were only just one very thin wall away with just a shower curtain in the doorway. The majority of the lab-side of the room was occupied by tables full of chemicals, foods, and papers.

P.H. let out a loud purrrr, showing his amusement, and the scientist wrote down on the large white board behind him. 'I find nothing of this funny. I need a functional laptop to communicate and to keep records of my experiments, P.H.'

'Why don't you ask your brother to get you a new laptop?' The mewtwo grinned.

Erasing, he wrote down. 'I don't even want to think of how he got this one. Besides, I do think its fixable, no need to get something new when the old one can be fix....I just need someone that can fix it'

With one of their most proliferate programmers (say what you like, but 1337 did carry his work everywhere) stuck in the brig grinding through code at a snail's pace, another recovering from a bullet wound, and their elite supervisor in serious need of sleep (or, they said out of earshot, a shrink,) the tech department had been.. a little behind. Naturally, projects from the higher-ups and maintaining the base's network were first priority, but some of the little jobs that were less CS and more IT had been read, noted, and forgotten.

Now that the X-rays had been good, the brace was off and his right hand was free for typing again, Hayes was getting caught up on his workload. He didn't know for sure how this request had been left to sit for a week, but he could take a guess - work orders from the labs tended to be passed around like hot potatoes on account of the 'keyboards sticky from unknown chemicals,' 'a white-haired grunt with giant syringe asking for tissue samples' and 'that thing in the tube staring at me.' But it had to get done and hey, Hayes, since you're down there every week anyway can you take care of this?

The memo in Hayes' hand flapped in a nonexistent breeze and tugged free of the Rocket's grip. "Hold it right there?" the agent asked. The paper stopped and hovered a foot or two in front of him; he grinned. "Thanks, buddy."

"Bwoooum!" went the Jirachi hanging off his shoulder, managing to make the Mac boot-up noise sound pleased.

Hayes checked the room number against the door plate and knocked.

The mewtwo and scientist both look up at the knock. 'Do I have any appointments today?' Ezekiel wrote down while still looking at the door, the mewtwo made himself scarce as he went looking for a little black agenda book, shaking his head.

Ezekiel walked over to the door and open it, his dark eyes stared at Hayes questioningly, not recognizing him, before he reached at a pile of cue cards on the top of a file cabinet. The first card was always the same, so he just showed it to him without looking at it. It said 'How may I help you?' in neatly clear writing. The mute obviously expected this person to be looking for another room, was generally lost or needed paperwork from him.

He could hear someone moving around in there. Alphard peered over Hayes' shoulder, mouth a little 'o' of anticipation, waiting for the door to open. This was always the exciting part.

When it did, the Jirachi and his human found themselves looking up.. and up.

Hayes caught the memo before it dropped to the ground.

The agent's gaze flickered briefly down to the card, then back to Ezekiel's face; he nudged his glasses back into position and held the form out. "Busted laptop?" he inquired, a mild smile hovering over his features.

"Big," Alphard commented.

Even though he was a decent height, Hayes was used to being dwarfed by some of the others in the tech department.. but Arceus, this guy was taller than Seth.

Ezekiel seemed to be pleasantly surprise at this as he put the cue card back and moved away from the door, signaling with is hand to come in. He erase the white board and wrote down. 'The laptop in question is on the desk, ignore the purrring mewtwo. Do you need to know anything specifically about the laptop?' The mute scientist signal at the board when he was done writing, well taking his own advise and ignoring the mewtwo who was sitting up on the mat and watching Hayes and Alphard curiously.
