Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I don't hate sleeping in chairs really...but I do hate sleeping slumped on desks. I don't know how that woman can put up with it...maybe it comes from practice, I mean I find her at that damn MISSED often enough." And a swivel in his chair, looking to Jelena as she did indeed come upon the scene.

"Perfectly fine." Obsessive OODDS wearing habit secure. Honestly one would expect her to screw up her vision with the things the way she wore them all the time, more than half of that time on her nose and not in hair.

And a walk over to Erik, hugging him and giving him a kiss to the cheek. "And look at you, making my office all nice and messy with your left over food stuffs and the like...how sweet of you Erik, I'm touched, really." In a patronizing good mood today, wasn't she?

Lillia giggled, "JJ. We should call them that. Jelly would kill me but that's okay." She walked back with Ren, truly enjoying his company and then heard hte announcement. "Oh my...someone is going to die..."

She knew how Jelena felt about her OODDS and she wasn't one to mess with when it came to that little piece of equipment. She would literally break you in half and feel no remorse. She pulled Ren along until they came to her office and sailed in, nodding to James and Erik. She didn't say a word just pulled Ren with her and started pointing out files. "Basically we have to get them in order. So here's my system. The Echo's name is on the side of the file and the color-coded tabs are for which stage they're currently in. For example, she went through and finally found one for a Fenrir." Showing him teh label on the side, it had the indentification number of the Echo. then she flipped it open and showed him the different tabs. "Current stage goes on top, so here this Fenrir is an adult, so the red tab is on teh top. See? Not hard."

Ren only let her pull him along as she pleased...hell he was complaining he was going to get to do something to cure that boredom itch. And he listened as tenatively as anyone could be, processing what he was told and keeping it in his head. It only looked like he wasn't listening but he really was. "Oh...well that's simple enough, yeah I can help with this."

He looked over to James though, as well as Erik and Jelena with a laugh. "Oh...it's horribly boring...and it hurts a bit too." Though he wouldn't go into detail about that and if they weren't looking for it, they wouldn't see the bruising. Like he told Lilia, he didn't want to get into it with Erik or James. "And you're right, I have been thrown off of ships repeatedly...though you know...what can they do."

She was still hugging on Erik. "He cleans like my mother did." A little laugh after that, letting Erik go and standing straight, pushing her OODDS up the bridge of her nose to sit better. Yes she loved the little device didn't she? "And quit cleaning things...you have to at least let me have one messy space."

And her look filtered to the two other. "Morning Lilia, Rennell. Nice to see you both." Warm smiles and all from her, yeah she was in a good mood despite present circumstances. With almost childlike fascination she watched Rennell and Lilia a moment sorting things out. She could at least try it out...

"That's not a fair deal...we both knew he would. And we both know that nothing keeps Mr. Sunshine there from doing what he wants unless you give him a good whack or two over the head. Or play with noise around him because then it messes with his bioware functions." Sadistically evil fun, no?

"Joy, I get something to keep messy. That means none of you can touch what's on my desk." And just to make her point she put a hand on that stack of papers that James had straightened a few moments ago...and shoved them over on the desk, making them fan on the surface. Ah, that felt better.

But at his nudging she pushed her weight back against him in protest and so that she wouldn't step forward. "I can wait till they're done." Flimsy excuse but one none the less.

A blink and a look down at his arm before resting her own on his around her waist, simply content with that and hey...she didn't have to touch the organization thing going on. Really...she saw no point in it. And besides...all she had to do was pile it all on her desk...it was off limits to the little organzation freaks.

Jelena rolled an eye at James whispering though. Honestly they weren't that loud. And sensitive to sound Rennell may be she doubted he would be disturbed in any way. A chuckle and a shake of her head though would suffice.


"Only because I know Fein is bored out of her own mind...well what sane mind she has that is. And hey, she likes to poke around in people's heads. Cheap thrills maybe." He shrugged. "But fine, I owe you a pizza."

Lillia paused for a moment in her work adn watched James and Jelena together. There was something different about htem...something she just couldn't put her finger on. Jelena was happy adn James was forever touching her. Then it hit her like a ton of bricks. "You slept wiht him!" sh eblurted out, then immediately turned red.

"I...umm...never mind..." She quickly immersed herself in some of her files and grabbed another one to show Rennell. Whispering to him, "I can't believe I just...did that. Thank god you're here to see me die of embarassment."

Something clenched inside Lillia, she was happy for Jelena but she didn't want to watch them together. of course she had no choice seeing as how they all had to work in the same space. But she didn't want to think of silk sheets and sweet words, it only made the narrow cliff she was balancing on crack in half.
