Mungojerrie had learned the hard way that people didn't generally like him teleporting straight in to their offices without prior warning. However, this didn't particularly stop him - not when he had Important Information to share. He appeared in John's office with an ear-splitting ripping noise as the fabric of time and space grumbled noisily at his preferred method of entrance.

He looked momentarily dazed before he focused on the figure behind the desk and cracked a lopsided smile that glinted with gold fillings. "John Sheppard, you're the security fella yeah?" He extended a lanky arm and proferred a hand cheerily. "We ain't met yet but I'm Mungojerrie, I work down in Endowments!"

He brandished a scrappy, dog-eared bit of paper proudly. "Got some info on a missing student, thought you should have a look!"

[fairerthandeath]

He jumps -- and for a second he's threat assessing, ready to take out any intruders. Then he processes the information and relaxes -- cautiously.

"Endowment. Right." Endowment always seemed to get the weird ones. He eyes the paper warily, still buzzing from the surprise. "What's that?"

[ping_ur_ming]

With a victorious grin he put the paper on John's desk with a flourish.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION!!
- oddanaba... Oda Nobunaga
- Japan (warlord in)
- okeeha... Okehazama (war)
- less manpower (won with)
- demon (aid of)
- demon = sawwaddashin = shin??!!

Realising that this probably wasn't the most informative of information Mungojerrie hurriedly explained, pointing out the bullet points as he went through it. "So there's the warlord in Japan called Nobunaga, right? And he was in a war wot he won with some kind of demon helping him. Apparently this demon could do all this fire and ice stuff and the demon was called Sawada Shin! Now, I'm thinking that this could be our Shin, yeah? Time-travel and that." Even as he said it, he felt an uncomfortable flash of self-doubt. Time-travel was a bit far-fetched after all. "Or something."

[fairerthandeath]

He blinks, and frowns at the piece of paper. It was a little like someone's thought process. A thought process that he was pretty sure made more sense to them --

"Wait, the Sawada kid?" He does a little processing himself a minute. "How did you find this out?" John has to admit, he's been a little stuck on how people have been finding these things out. Aside from blind luck. Which is a little creepy.

Marius entered into the office in enough time to hear the last bit of the conversation, but he didn't think anything of it. With things going as they were around this school and people disappearing left and right and SHIELD continually asking for progress reports, he had other things to worry about.

Like how he ended up in the wrong office.

He blinked at John and then gave him an apologetic smile. "Sorry about that. I was looking for someone else."

[fairerthandeath]

He looks up -- and frowns, getting up from his desk.

"That's all right, it takes while to find your way round. Who're you looking for?"

so apparently I don't have notifs turned on for this account

[emoderprepeat]

"I think I'm on the wrong floor..." Marius murmured, glancing back out in the hallway. Except he had looked over the floorplan already, and the office should have been on this floor... he shook his head. "I was looking for an Angela. You wouldn't happen to know how I could find her?"

's all right!

[fairerthandeath]

He blinks, then smiles a little. "Montenegro? It just so happens I do --" Digs around in his pocket for his phone, and frowns a little as he tugs it out. "I think she's teaching at the moment but I can check her schedule. Is it urgent?"

[livebymysmile]

"You know, no matter how many times I've come in here I don't think I've ever seen you doing anything that looks anything like work." Duo leaned against the doorframe watching the head of security curiously. He at least tried to stay on the self defense teacher's good side since Temari seemed to like him so much and the guy actually seemed pretty decent. It was his way of trying to make up for the fact that Sanji seemed to hate his guts more or less.

"Next time there's one of those stupid 'what do you want to be when you grow up?' questions I'm going to put your job down."

[fairerthandeath]

"Hey, I'll have you know I do a lot of work. I just don't like to be caught doing it."

He grins and flicks a rubber band in Duo's general direction.

"So, how can I help you? Or are you just here to steal supplies." He leans back dangerously in his computer chair (this one he cant rock and fall over in, huge advantage) and rummages around behind the desk. "I managed to install a mini fridge, I'm thinking of charging people for its contents. Make a fortune in the summer."

[livebymysmile]

"Don't want people thinking you actually work hard, huh?"

You know, for a security guy he's not so bad. Way cooler than the last one that's for sure.

"Eh, I was bored and had nothing to do really so thought I'd crash in on your office. I've got this goal where one day I'll swing by and actually see you working. I'm all up for supplies though if you're offering." Like hell he'd turn down free stuff. "Can't you just bill it to the school or something? Budget it into your expenses or whatever."

[fairerthandeath]

"Bad for my image. Besides, if you work too hard people give you more work."

He throws a can of soda in Duo's vague direction the sets another on the desk.

"And that isn't a bad idea. Maybe I can claim them as... office supplies." He opens his own can with a frown and eyes the collection of papers on his desk. "You know any of these missing kids?"

[clownfeethero]

Sora is waiting outside John's office because he seems to be in a conversation, but he can't help but eavesdrop the slightest and... Well, maybe John isn't in such a good mood. But that isn't any reason to postpone a visit!

He walks in, realizes he's supposed to knock, and then sort of caught already in John's office, knocks on one of his monitors. Gently. He doesn't need to break any more machines. "Err, are you busy?" He certainly looks busy, what with all this stuff running on his desk.

[fairerthandeath]

He looks up -- smirks a little at the hesitant knock on his monitor, and shrugs.

"Nope. Besides, you're already here. How can I help?"

[clownfeethero]

"Well, I'm taking pirate economics, but I don't think I can do it anymore, and uhh... Hermione said maybe I should take Computer Science..." He looked like he wasn't sure this was a good idea.

[fairerthandeath]

"Pirate economics?" He looks confused a second -- "I'm guessing it was a let down. No actual pirating involved?"

[mutedbackbeat]

Derrick arrived later, having made connections of his own amongst staff and students over a time travel rescue. He knocked on the door, waited a second before slowly opening it. "... John?"

Already, Derrick was trying to figure out what exactly he was going to tell him.

[fairerthandeath]

"Hey!"

Have a half smile as he rummages around his desk, almost knocking over a can of soda.

"How's it goin'? You talk to Robin? I've actually found out a little more -- although not in what you'd call the most.... conventional of ways. This place isn't so good at conventional--" He catches the can just as it's about to go off the edge and winces.

[mutedbackbeat]

Walking in, Derrick pulled out a copy of the time and places where Blossom and Hajime should be found together. Ms. Nico had written it. Derrick kept the original but put the copy on the desk and pointed to one of the possible dates and locations. "They're here."

However, Derrick didn't say anymore once John winced. "... What happened...?" Derrick narrowed his eyes and looked straight at John, sounding like he was the mentor instead of the other way around. What caused that wince?

[fairerthandeath]

He frowns and leans forward as he sets the can back down, scanning the piece of paper on the desk.

"This is really weir--" And then he glances back up questioningly. What? Oh -- have a scowl. He holds up the soda can and waves it. "Almost knocked it across my desk. Some weird guy from endowment teleported in here suddenly early, think I'm still a little on edge. This is good work! You guys are sure about this?" He frowns at the information again and shakes his head. "You know, you think I'd be gettin' use to weird but this stuff still really freaks me out."
