Tao hummed a tune -one he was sure he'd heard from one of the scientists, because otherwise he had no idea how it got stuck in his head- as he worked at Security. It was starting to come together, but he'd only chipped away at his list. It was still better than before though.
He heard someone coming up behind him and looked up. "Hey, Yuri," he said, waving a hand over his chair. He'd had to steal it from the cafeteria, and sure, the Union didn't want them to waste time or get lazy, but come on. Some of these tasks took hours. He wasn't going to stand watching monitors for the entire day. Nope. No way. It wasn't as if the Union were watching them anyway. Only him, and if he could print off more chairs he would.
"Oh? How did you know it was me?"
Tao turned around to grin at him. Yuri had his usual smile, but it did have that slight tension he had when he was annoyed. Whoops. Was it because he'd called Yuri by name? But Yuri had given it when everyone was introducing each other. "I set up a camera at the door so I can see the back of my head!" It wasn't quite the the way that Takeo seemed to just be able to do but it was close enough.
"Oh my, you have been busy, haven't you?"
Tao let out a cracked laugh. "I need ta be to try and sort everything out." He'd basically had to overhaul everything from scratch. "I might have everything in working order by the time we get outta here." Now that they knew what they were doing, winning this round should be even faster. He shook his head. Most of the usual problems were similar to the ship they were on, from Tao had heard. "What's up?"
"Just checking how things were going here," Yuri said, "since you're able to see everything."
"Not yet," Tao said with a sigh. "But I should be able to soon." Maybe. The printing materials seemed to be pretty low here too.
"I was wondering-"
The door hissed open and Tao waved at Takeo with a grin. "Lunch?"
Takeo nodded and Tao hopped out of his chair with a sigh, stretching for all he was worth, hearing his joints crack. "You wanna take over for a bit?" Tao asked Yuri. That was what he was about to ask, wasn't it?
Yuri smiled, looking over all the monitors. "Yes, I will. We wouldn't want a murder to go unwitnessed, would we?"
"Heh. I'll be back soon," Tao said with a wave, leaving with Takeo. It was nice to have someone else watching the cameras while he was away.
