[She looks thoughtful and doesn't respond right away. It might be driving such a driven Winn a little crazy, but eventually she nods.] I can understand that. I'll help. Just stay with me? [Don't get too carried away or lose yourself.]

[ he's not understanding her hesitation at all, and it really is a little maddening to him. ]

I just need a terminal for this, I'm not going off-board - [ is he taking her request way too literally? yes, yes he is. he's in the zone, his brain isn't focusing on anything but what it currently has to do - and the hour and emotional exhaustion of everything that's happened tonight aren't helping him focus. ]

Not what I mean. [Already feeling the disconnect here and it's disheartening enough for reasons she can't even explain to herself that she doesn't try to explain. She steps back.] Do what you need to do.

[ an alarm goes off somewhere in his head, letting him know that something is wrong here, that he should ask, that he should hold her. but unfortunately, it's drowned by the constant buzzing of ideas in his head.

groping for his shoes in the dark, he pulls them on. ]

When they wake up, send Kurt and Vision my way. I haven't tried anything this large-scale yet, but there's no reason this baby shouldn't be up for the task, [ giving the phone an appreciative squeeze. cisco really did a great job on it. ] don't worry. This guy won't know what hit him.

[ this is his domain. ]

I'm not worried about him. [Just Winn at the moment.] I'll let them know.

[ straightening up once his shoes are on, he gives her a quick kiss. ]

Thanks, I'll just be - [ you know. messing with a terminal. and off he goes.

he hasn't had a chance to stretch his hacking skills in way too long, and the first chance he gets the stakes are high...he's got full on tunnel vision right now. ]

[She sits back on the bed once he's left.] Gone. And I'll be alone. [She can appreciate emergency situations, but working on them separately instead of as a team? That doesn't feel good to her. She's tempted to slide through the wall and just rest next to Kurt until morning.]
