When your internet is out, you ponder why you spend so much time on it. When it comes back again, you ignore any deep, profound discoveries you make about it taking up time and go right back to it.

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

*Steps onto the raised floor toward the front and project another set of statistics to my left, accompanied by a handful of charts*
Let's get started; I don't want to waste your time. Anyone late can read the minutes later.


*My gaze snaps forward to you, when you speak, breaking away from one of the video feeds and paying attention to you*
<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

Helps to keep an eye on everything. Otherwise everything would go wrong during these.
*Sits at one of the crescents near the back as more of the team wanders in, a small handful stopping to greet us here and there*


*Takes a seat next to you and gets lost in watching some of the video feeds for a bit at a time*
<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

*Most of the first few individuals are dressed casually and the room is simple internally, but the walls are plastered with live-updating statistics and video feeds from various missions, including a stream of one team member in the field, asleep*


This place is crazy...
<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

Let’s head in, and I’ll sit with you.
*Walks through the open entrance into a dimly-lit room furnished with white crescent tables and a raised floor on the far end, populated by a dozen eclectic team members already inside*


*Looks the room over top to bottom, looking up at the ceiling and taking in all the details*
<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

Now is as good a time as any to start.
*Pushes my chair back in as a door slides open seamlessly from the wall in the hallway adjacent to the break room*
If you have any questions, I’ll do my best to answer them, but I may not know either.


That's okay. You usually get a lot of answers just by listening.
<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

Ten minutes. Is it your first one?


I haven't been here for any others. School got in the way.
<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

You have potential. You'll get there if you want it.


When is this meeting anyway?
<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

That's great to hear.
*Stands up to make another cup of tea*
I can't wait to see your master plan, grand tactician Acacia.


Hopefully, that much runs in the family.
<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

*Half smiles*
Maybe that’s how you end up organizing papers in the file room.


Don't get me wrong, I'm going to be making moves now. Just not without thought.
<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

If we all did the same thing, nothing would ever get done. Have you thought about being chief strategist for a low-risk mission and asking the boss to reverse-shadow you?


I haven't thought about anything at all. I'm only just now really grasping how much freedom I really have as far as taking initiative.
