Connor looked up at Elizabeth's voice, relief flowing over him when he saw her. He hadn't been sure that Marl would let Elizabeth go. But Marl had stiffened when Elizabeth spoke to him.

Connor hesitated, unsure what had gone on. He stepped back, heading inside the room. "Um, well, working the computer is really easy, once you get the basis. The internet is the gateway to the world, really. Although books are better for searching old theories and such on supernatural beings. Email's great for talking to people, like snail mail. But faster, instant" 

He'd moved to the table where his aptop was set up, along with a note book he had been writing notes on. "You should earn it faster then Marl, at least. You already now how to use a mobile phone, after all" He shot Marl a smile, "He still thinks you need to change the typewriter cartridge when typing on the laptop" He looked over to Elizabeth, still wondering what she had said to Marl but decided not ot push it while things seemed to be well.
