Portland International, Sunday Evening [31/1/10]
Mohinder was sure that the Oregon airport was a fine example of its kind. Just one he'd never planned on visiting.
"Company funds don't grow on trees, doctor," Bob had told him before sending Mohinder off to a small town whose principle feature was snow - snow, more snow and a librarian who could - with concentration - alter the opacity of any object she was in contact with. Working with and testing Amelia had gone well - with the exception of one elevator-related incident that might just be creatively misfiled. Mohinder hadn't ever expected to see several stories of lift shaft from that angle, and he'd been... surprised. And giggled at.
"-fine,"
The company evidently managed to outfit labs with the money they saved in other areas. Which - Mohinder hoped - was why Portland was only his third stop of several domestic hops on his way back to New York. And why he was reassuring a young girl via cell phone, and definitely missing portal travel.
"And I will be there when you wake up."
Molly drifted into sleep partway through his second murmured lullaby, and Mohinder flicked his phone shut and off, waiting for his next connection.
