And she was so busy too. GLaDOS hadn't been lying when she said she had things to do. She honestly was trying to work on tunneling deeper to recreate, at least to an extent, the facility she had left. However, doing so and keeping the structure intact was... difficult without the necessary equipment. And she was also rather caught up in some side projects as well, such as trying to find a way to keep her eye on all her newest subjects.

Caroline was, naturally, one of them.

She memorized that user code, instantly aware of who it was the second the communicator began to alert her to a private message.

"... Last I checked, those two weeks weren't quite up yet, Caroline.

I don't suppose you've called me to insult me some more, have you? Because, I'm a little caught up in work right now, and I really don't have any time to spare for playing around today."

Her tone was as cold as ice and flat to boot... Still apparently cross about the meeting with Starscream.

"Are you familiar with the ASHPD?" She was relieved none of the inner tension she was feeling ended up in her tone.

"The Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device. Yes. I should hope so.

I perfected it, after all.

You're welcome for that, by the way. You're lucky.... You'll be able to see it reach it's highest point.

Anyway, what do you want with it?"

"Blueprints. I'm willing to trade for them. To an extent, of course."
