"I'd heard it was a luminescent cavern, but nothing like this," she spoke in reply. The reports had only come in hours ago requesting investigation. Though she'd sent her teams out recently to investigate, she had yet to spot any of them. Instead she turned her gaze toward Black and offered a sheepish smile.

"I-I really appreciate you coming out here with me like this. It appears to be safe here thus far, but I'll keep my radar on just in case." And just like that, her hand slipped to an aural unit at one side of her head - a force of habit - as she fired on the program. Ah, there was her team... they were rather far out, so they probably wouldn't be disturbed.

...And that was when she noticed he was looking at her, and we mean looking. After a moment of hesitation and an audible clearing of her throat- was there something stuck to her shirt, her pants, wh-what?- she continued.

"It has been a while, though. How have you been?"

"So you haven't been here yet," he spoke softly. Something about taking a chance and wandering into the dark without any concern or full report gave him a bit of a thrill. Perhaps this date wouldn't go entirely unrewarded.

"As you wish." He was watching her to be sure, his eyes never quite leaving her and her form. He remained upon her hands for a sort while, watching it move near her head. Was she turning something on, or using something within? Or was it just a gesture?

His head rose when he was questioned, debating asking something personal, but decided against it. "I am fine. Things have been quite normal besides our recent activity. Rise. Go to work, and so forth. How have you been?"

"That's true," she answered. "Though I wouldn't be able to tell you if I prefer the uneasy calm or the quickened, furious activity more. The latter gives you answers, but the former grants safety to the populace. ...I, too, am faring as well as I can be."

She paused upon entering a small chamber dotted with pathways further inside the cavern, a burst of color and light filling the room thanks to the large crystals that grew from the ground and ceiling. Though her sensors denoted something peculiar about the crystals, they could not determine exactly what.

"What do you make of those, Black? Something about them feels important."

"I can understand that. While I do enjoy the calm and solitary moments, I am rather restless in the most normal circumstances. I would prefer something that keeps me busy quite constantly."

So many ways in. Black could spend quite a bit of time down her later trying to map out each and every way in and out. Though as usual if he didn't take someone with him, he would not be able to find the elevator. Perhaps a map was out of the question.

"I can sense nothing but energy. Perhaps they are important."

"Hmm. Maybe I should take a few for analysis," she said, and made a note to grab some before they left. Locket stopped at a clear spot, stooping to brush off the cool stone with her hands for a moment before she tilted her head to have a look back at him.

"I think here should be all right. The crystals add a great light to the chamber, don't you think?" Oh, but she wondered if they had any sort of use! They looked so much like the memory crystals, glowing in different colors and far larger than what she was accustomed to. Curiously, she reached out to grasp a cluster of violet that grew nearest to her... to her disappointment, nothing happened, though they felt very warm, almost alive in her hands. She stood once more, aiming to assist Black in the set-up.

"I would like to know more about them myself. Do you think they would be safe to take back with us?" Black was rather curious himself and they could make for emergency lighting in the dark for the household even if Black didn't exactly need it.

"Yes, it would prove most useful." He watched her grasp it, shoulders heightened for any reaction and was also disappointed nothing happened. By the time Locket turned back around, he already had the blanket set down on the ground and already in a seat, unwrapped the trays and was already moving them out in various places.
