It's dangerously close to midnight and the oil has all but finished burning. It was a day as productive as it was long and while his mind continued to turn, weariness had long since crept into Miles' bones. All the lower-level scientists and peons had long since retired for the evening. It'd been a rare opportunity to work side by side with Lulu. The two, over the months since their first meeting, had become colleagues - Miles would even dare to say half-decent ones if only for the work ethic they shared.

He combs through what he then decides is the final file for the evening massaging the bridge of his nose.

"Let's call it, Lulu, I understand that you may not need sleep, but we both need a meal." Though meals on the sub barely registered as such.

She regarded him a moment, before a large notepad with nearly illegible handwriting was plopped down onto a desk. “Yeah, alright.”

Lulu didn’t have food at home. If she was to fend for herself, she’d go out and find something. The food on the sub was not great, but company was here now, and that actually didn’t sound terrible.

In only days, they’d be finished with the generator. Excitement was mounting, and so were hours without sleep for many. Lulu drove on, unaffected—always tired, but steadily managing.

She led the way into the breakroom.

“How are things, Miles?” He was one of few she would ever ask with any genuine interest. “We work so hard I never get to ask.”

She agrees and minutes later the two find themselves on the way to the break room two sets of feet tapping against the sub's metal hull. "Oh? Is Lulu flint fielding personal questions, what's the occasion?" He teases, it was true for all the work they shared personal lives were rarely discussed in favor of the ongoings in rocket, and moreover their work.

And to be frank, there were few things outside of work that Miles could speak about. He could of course vaguely speak on his blossoming relationship, but keeping details hidden about would be difficult once the door was open. After all, Lulu was no fool. Everything else was generally work-related. The generator was in the fine-tuning period, He'd begun studying the tree Gavin and his team excavated, and his work with secret bases had been going relatively well, even if the idea wasn't the most popular.

"Well for one I've begun tutoring the young. Ms. in the infirmary" He thinks on the youth and their lessons, and while getting her to focus had proved difficult the girl's intellect was unquestioned. " She's exceptionally bright despite her lack of focus, but I can hardly blame her. I wasn't the most cooperative student myself. I see a scientist in her."

"But what about you? I remember a day not too long ago where you brought a rather surprising guest to the labs. He holds the breakroom door open for his colleague.
