Breakfast time!

[ourlastbesthope]

Capa starts out sitting by himself and rarely eats. Today’s breakfast is an as-yet uneaten apple, which he is rolling around on the table with one hand while he does math in a notebook with the other.

Breakfast time!

Harper isn't big on eating either, but he is big on caffeine, and breakfast is a pretty good place to get it. He's got a big old mug full of coffee, and by sheer chance, as he's passing by Capa on the way out of the dining hall he gets a brief glance at that notebook being so diligently mathed into.

Harper stops, and takes a couple of minutes to just... creepily watch what Capa is scratching down into his notebook, before deciding that yes, this is a good use of his morning. Maneuvering around, Harper claims the seat next to Capa, and nods towards the notebook, "Have you tried applying [OBSCURE MATH THING] to that yet?"

Breakfast time!

Capa really doesn't respond at first. He's finishing the equation at the time that the engineer sits down. But at the suggestion, he moves down to the next line and rewrites the equation. This time, he does use what was asked and his eyebrows shoot up a bit. It cut down the steps involved quite a bit, at least.

"Thanks." Finally, he glances up to look at the person who had sat down beside him. "How do you know that?" Because obviously no one on this ship is as smart as he is.

Breakfast time!

"No problem!" Harper sounds pretty cheerful as he replies, he'd quite enjoyed watching the other man working through the equation if he was honest. At the question about how he'd known, Harper spread his arms slightly, and gestured to himself, "Super genius. Knowing random crap just comes naturally to me."

Dropping his arms, he took a swig of his coffee, letting his eyes quickly take in who he was talking too, "It's Capa, right? Seamus Harper, I pinged you about Crane a couple of days ago."

Deck

[ourlastbesthope]

He likes being out in the sunshine. And the leaves are fascinating to him, since they seem to come out of nowhere. He is listening to music while he looks over the deck and is, for once, free of his notebook.

Corridors on the way to the Lab

[ourlastbesthope]

He’s on his way there, one hand in his pocket as he carries his notebook. He’s actually got his hair pulled back today so he doesn’t look like a complete mess. You’re welcome.

Corridors on the way to the Lab

[victimofnoone]

Hayley catches sight of her friend far ahead of her down the hall. She jogs over to catch up with him, eager to see a friendly face with all the recent upsets. There's rumors of discontentment and the last time it happened so severely, a riot resulted. She doesn't want that to happen again, especially if Capa and Ned are around.

"Hey," the girl offers as she catches up with her friend. "On your way to the lab?"

Corridors on the way to the Lab

[ourlastbesthope]

Capa blinked when he heard that familiar voice and turned, waiting until she caught up before he started walking again.

"Yeah. I'm a little late going there today. Were you planning on coming?" It's not as if he set her a schedule. If she came, she came. If not...well, he'd just have plenty more work for her later.

Corridors on the way to the Lab

[victimofnoone]

Hayley caught up to him with ease, hands in the pockets of her red jacket. He looked a little off somehow, but she didn't comment on it, not knowing what she would say anyway. Maybe that was just the way he looked, since he seemed to look off more than not. The inmate nodded distractedly, "Yeah. I mean, I hadn't really thought about it, honestly? But I like coming every day when I can."

She walked with him for a bit before she couldn't contain herself, a sign of her immature age. "So.. what do you think about Arthur? And the meditation thing? I mean, are you okay with it?"

WHOOPS LUNCH

[ourlastbesthope]

He jumps in for a quick meal and actually eats something decent because he was interrupted from his work!

Lab

[ourlastbesthope]

Back inside the lab, he’s scribbling things down as fast as he can.

Re: Lab

[alzarian_youth]

Adric himself had a rat from the CES and was scribbling down an elaborate equation, trying to calculate the formula necessary to create a program that would include all the necessary attributes of a rat that would be completely real. At least, real enough to touch and, as some on the Barge had demonstrated, eat. From time to time, he'd start reading the equations quietly to himself. He'd had a theory, and while normally he'd be doing this with his inmate, it was outside the times Omega usually worked with him and he didn't want to bug him. If he decided he was on the right track, he'd get Omega.

Re: Lab

[ourlastbesthope]

Capa didn't really know Adric at all. He had seen him around, but knew very little about him. He seemed interesting enough, at least. But he just had no cause to ask.

This was different, though. He could just ask Icarus, but he was so self conscious about it when he was with other people. They tended to stare. Especially in the lab.

"Hey," he said softly to Adric, hoping that he wasn't interrupting his work. "Do you...have a second?"

Re: Lab

[alzarian_youth]

"Yes," Adric said, looking up and setting his work down. "What did you need?"
