Before I head back, then - I'll go speak with them and let you know what they say.

[he's taking it as a yes]

[exothermia]

...thank you.

[beathach]

You're welcome. [he shrugs a shoulder] I'm admittedly a little curious about it too.

[exothermia]

[He snorts.]

Your scientific curiosity?

[beathach]

I might not practice anymore, but I like to keep up on what's going on. It's no different here, really.

[exothermia]

Easier, I expect, given how often it's thrown in our faces.

[beathach]

That's true. Though I'm probably in the minority of people who enjoy that sort of thing.

[exothermia]

[He's certain it's not that uncommon, but he stays out of such things unless it's directly of use to him. Crossing his arms, he leans back against the wall.]

I'm sure you and Charles compare notes.

[beathach]

[he shrugs a shoulder, shoving his hands in his pockets] On some things, sure. I share notes with a couple of people on the fleet.

[exothermia]

That doesn't surprise me.

[beathach]

Mm, well - it's a lot like Kyriakos in that respect. People keeping track of everything and comparing notes when they get together.

[exothermia]

[He shakes his head.]

I don't think it's like that at all. But you probably speak with more people than I do.

[beathach]

I don't, really. [his mouth quirks briefly] Not recently. I'm not very social.

[exothermia]

[Erik merely huffs. It's not a contest, and yet if it were he's certain he'd win the anti-social stakes. Particularly given how tense things can be between himself and Charles lately.]

[beathach]

[he watches Erik for a moment, then pretends like something down the way caught his attention]

Have you been down here to look around?

[exothermia]

I've mostly been in the repair shops.

[beathach]

Ah - I haven't really had a chance to. Do they sell anything decent? I heard it was mostly overpriced.

[exothermia]

Yes, because most of it is in bulk. It's possible to hire tools and do repair work yourself - that's cheaper.

[beathach]

That doesn't surprise me. It's always been cheaper to do whatever work yourself - but things in bulk doesn't sound so bad. Maybe I'll go take a look later.

[exothermia]

I haven't looked into it too far yet. I'll see what supplies are needed once the repairs are done.

I'm also hoping to find material to build those sensors.

[beathach]

Mm, that makes sense. If I see anything, I'll pick it up for you.

[exothermia]

I'd appreciate it.

[beathach]

Mmm. Hopefully it's easy to find here - they're not rare parts, but -

[exothermia]

But who knows, in this corner of space?

[beathach]

I like to think that they're common enough. It's every day parts, mostly.
