Library, Friday

The library might have looked a little messy, but every researcher sort of had their own organizational system going now. Billy had stopped to get coffee, tea, and muffins on his way in, and was perfectly happy to make sure the "No Guns in the Library" sign and box were perfectly visible no matter how many books got put back onto the desk for re-shelving.

The researchers were all getting somewhere with their work, but Billy wasn't quite sure if that was going to be enough. Don't mind him if he looked a little stressed.

Hannibal turned at the sound of her voice. It wasn't the most politely he'd been addressed, but he supposed when you were reduced to yelling from computer speakers for attention, there should be allowances made.

"Hello, yes?"

For Tannis, the fact that she was letting them keep up the connection to her lab up at all was quite polite enough.

"Oh, it's you," she said. Maybe that was a positive thing. Maybe it wasn't. But hey, at least she recognized the people who'd been in her brain. "I have important information! Or perhaps, it's more of an imporatnt lack of information..."

Sorry, she had a tendency to get sidetracked.

Fortunately, Hannibal made a career out of listening to people get sidetracked. And getting them back on track when needed.

"What information are we lacking?"

"I lack the knowledge of what is going inside Hyperion's dig site," Tannis replied, poking at some of her data on her own screens. "But I listened in to your radio broadcasts this morning, and Jack made mention of already possessing the key, and not being that subtle about it, either. Typical."

Because he was an ass like that.

"Putting these two things together... It is becoming obvious you only have one choice for a course of action."

At least his lack of subtlety gave them information they hadn't yet had.

"We need to get the key from him," Hannibal surmised. "And get you information about their dig."

"Exactly." Tannis nodded firmly. She liked people who could come to conclusions without her having to spell everything out. "I suggest you mount an attack. Preferably with guns. The girl with the long hair ––" That was a great description of Jessica, really. "–– has hopefully already gotten started on upgrading some. You'll need more of those, to penetrate Hyperion's perimeter."

She nodded again.

"So I suggest you all get on that. You'll need recoinnassance information about the perimeter, and you will need a plan, so I don't recommend attempting an attack today all willy-nilly."

Hannibal smiled wryly. "I'm a doctor, not a military strategist." Unlike his namesake, but he didn't think she'd know who that was. Or what his name was, come to that. ~~Or would recognize the totally accidental Star Trek reference.~~

"I'm unlikely to be one of the people with guns, but I will let them know. Do you know which girl with the long hair it was?" Narrowing it down would be nice.

Tannis waved a hand. "The smart one."

Not very helpful, but that was about the extent to which she could be bothered to identify anyone. The radio podcasts would be more helpful than her there.

Hannibal hadn't heard the radio (perks and problems of living off-island), but he could probably find somebody who had.

He nodded to Tannis. "I'll let her know," he promised. "Is there anything else?"

Tannis shook her head. "Apart from my growing distaste for human communication, no," she said. "I believe this is all I have for now. You may go and spread the word."

Perhaps she needed a psychiatrist. Hannibal chuckled and nodded again. "Thank you."
