[@Kirah][@Nallore]: The kitchen is fairly quiet and uneventful for the moment. Most people had already gotten breakfast/lunch/whatever they liked to call their first meal of the day, so it would be a few hours before the place got busy. Nothing seems to be out of the ordinary, but among the leftovers Cass will find a box of cookies with Clint's name on them. Mm, they smell good, too. 

[@FantasyChic]: In the hangar, Tinley has likely found just about the closest thing to peace and quiet. No one generally tends to go in there, unless they're stocking up and resupplying for a mission. But since Clint is off base for the day and they haven't gotten any intel, there isn't much of a reason for anyone to go and bother her. 

As for Tempest, she will get an alert pinged to her that a proximity sensor went off outside of the Playground. For an underground base, it's more or less only able to be entered through a secret entrance above ground. She has the option to pull up a visual feed, which will show an image of this [url=https://cheesecake.articleassets.meaww.com/37386/uploads/2cb3f19a8856c702b51f914df9c6ef04_800_420.jpeg]man[/url]. Facial recognition software identifies him as Casper Xavier Theriot. He has a minor criminal record, mostly drug related charges (possession and use, not distribution). It has a mutation on record as well, though it does not describe what it is exactly. At any rate, he seems to just be a harmless druggie.

[b][color=add3ff]Skills:[/color][/b] Metal Bending[hr][/center]	Novikova blushed slightly as Maria complimented her hair. [color=add3ff]"Thanks - realized silver hair sticks out... Especially with all of the hate going around lately,"[/color] she said with a bit of a thin smile. Tensions between mutants and humans were continuing to rise. Mutates and inhumans had an easier time of it, mostly because there were less of them and the ones that the public knew about tended to be high profile, like the Avengers. It was all too easy, on the other hand, to find a mutant criminal and point to them as a symbol. The Brotherhood helped loads with that. 

	[color=add3ff]"Yeah, maybe - might just be having an off day,"[/color] Novikova said, holding her hand out. The air seemed to shimmer around the arrowhead, but it didn't move at all and instead, Novikova got a splitting headache for a second. It then faded away and she grimaced. [color=add3ff]"Maybe I should give it a rest for now, try again later..."[/color] Her words then trailed off as Maria brought up Sparky and Raynor. Truthfully, she only really cared about Sparky's survival. Raynor was more of an added bonus that she could live a full and happy life without, but she knew how important he was to Theresa. 

	[color=add3ff]"...I'm fine,"[/color] she said, looking away.

[b][color=f6989d]Skills:[/color][/b] N/A[hr][/center] 	[color=f6989d]"Mhmm,"[/color] Bonnie replied, holding her head still. She kept on having to click and refocus the lens, as it was having a lot of trouble getting the contrast correct with the terrigen crystals. Of course, they looked more like dust or powder in this form but under the microscope, the crystalline structure was visible again. [color=f6989d]"Honestly, we ought to bring in an expert on materials on this,"[/color] Bonnie mused. Unfortunately, they didn't have as many people left in S.H.I.E.L.D. as they would have liked. Bonnie's specialty was biochemistry, for example, and here she was, studying metals. 

	However, once she had the Raman focused, she set it up so it began to collect data. Standing up straight, she turned and looked at Harry. A bit of her felt guilty about the loss of his hand - but they all had lost things during their time at S.H.I.E.L.D. She had lost her husband. And every time she looked at Flynn, she felt a little bit of that guilt. It helped when he was shirtless, as she had a harder time thinking about James and the vows they had made to each other. 

	[color=f6989d]"It's against protocol to eat in the lab - especially when terrigen dust is around, you know,"[/color] Bonnie pointed out to Harry, rolling her eyes a bit. [color=f6989d]"And I know that you know since I have on record that you passed your laboratory safety training quiz... So come on, either spit out the burrito or go to the kitchen."[/color] Sure, there were people on the team that wouldn't care if food was consumed in the lab - but Bonnie wasn't here to mess around. Dangerous substances meant no burritos.
