Library, Tuesday

[faithandscience.livejournal.com]

For all its flights of fancy, the library certainly knew when to get down to business to defeat the Huns. The books were all where they ought to be, nothing was flying around unexpectedly, and the only thing that wasn't usually in the library were the plates of gingerbread cookies that had appeared on the tables, because apparently the library had decided the researchers needed some sustenance to get them through the task.

Well, there was also the sign informing students there were no weapons allowed in the library, next to a large box for them to deposit said weapons, but that wasn't the doing of the library itself.

In any case, it was open and ready for business!

"Agreed."

Aaaaaand now Riley was apparently in a race with a student. But, he didn't care. He was firing up various tools, searching matrices, accessing databases, combing through news articles and pinging various towers to pick up a signal.

His laptop was chugging along though the fan had come on and was protesting the work that Riley was putting it through.

Finally Topher thought he had something. He'd come at a particular site that he'd seen flagged a couple times through decidedly tricky hacking work, and while a lot of the text didn't make it through his first attempt at decryption, one name did. He blurted it out fast, just so that Riley couldn't say it first.

"Patricia Tannis!" Again with the outdoor voice, Topher. Seriously, work on that. "She's a doctor. Her name's all over this page. Guessing she knows her way around a Vault."

He paused. "Wow, that sounded really dirty."

"Tannis?"

Riley typed that name into a few of his searches, sending various pings off different towers now. He peered over at Topher's screen to check the website so he could navigate there.

"Let's see if maybe we can get in touch with her, right? Might as well since we've got the tech and I'd love to say hello."

"Wait, really?" Ooh, this was becoming cool. "Yeah!" Topher slid the communicator over to Riley. "'S all yours."

He was inclined to be more generous and cooperative when people proved themselves to have good ideas. Congratulations, Riley.

"I need the communicator," he said, digging out a cord from his own bag and connecting his laptop to Topher's so they could be networked really quickly. He didn't want to unplug the communicator and risk it not coming back on.

"Shouldn't be too hard," he said, typing furiously once he and Topher's laptops were linked up. "A little bit of this, a little bit of that, hit a few powers, send a few signals and..."

He hit enter and...
