Brennan dashes off her signature one last time, slaps the folder closed in something akin to triumph, and drops her pen on top of it

Booth shows up, holding his own coffee. Not decaf. No sir.

"Hi," he says, smiling at her. "Hear you've got a big trip coming up."

Brennan grins.

"Yeah. You heard it from me," she reminds him.

They've both been kept pretty busy by their respective investigations. And, with the lab currently unable to work cases, Booth isn't around all the time the way he usually is.

"We leave in the morning. Me, Hannah, and Sam."

Booth looks faintly perplexed. "Did I? I don't remember you saying anything about Peru..."

He thinks hard for a moment. "No. Not a whisper."

Things have been pretty nuts at work, though. It's possible she mentioned it and he forgot. But he won't admit to that until she's caught him out.

"I could have sworn I emailed you."

Brennan's brow furrows for a moment, then shrugs.

"Things are rather disjointed lately."

Cam has assured them that the lab will settle back to it's normal functioning sooner or later. It can't happen fast enough for Brennan.
