"Faleen?~"
Zacharie glanced down at the flashing screen of his RocketDex with a fond smile. "Yes, we're going to see Agent Faleen. She mentioned there being some free time for your training today." He nodded in greeting to a pair of grunts making their way down the hallway before entering through the sliding doors of the technology department. "Her office?" The grunt gave a soft sigh and shifted his bag on his shoulder before approaching a nearby agent. "Excuse me." He called to catch their attention. "I'm looking for Agent Faleen. Do you know where I might find her since..." He glanced about the room and frowned lightly. "Well...since the accident probably scattered the technicians."

... Four harddrives. Adam frowned and marked them as missing on the list, "We're missing four of these babies. Someone take it to store their porn on?" There was no amusement in the joke.
Carvana? Wait. Adam had a brilliant idea. Taking out a pokeball, he released his Haunter. "Hey Manny, I need your help a sec. Can you go talk to the Carvana and see what is bothering him?"
Manny nodded and floated near to where the Carvana was swimming,
Adam waited near Manny, trying to figure out if the missing harddrives had anything peculiar about them, or if they were just run of the mill.

When the blond male agent seemed to notice Izaya, the man in the trainee uniform hesitated for a nanosecond and glanced at his addresser out the corner of his eye as he continued to sweep. "Hm?"
Aulus' nod to him caused his anxiety to increase slightly, but when it became apparent the scarred Rocket wasn't about to call him out, he took advantage of the situation. With Aulus asking questions, there was more to learn without having to directly involve himself which he knew was rather risky.
And then Zacharie showed up. He had to force himself not to roll his eyes under the brim of his cap. What the hell did the plant-lover want with his ex-partner? First his roommate, now Agent Faleen? That little twerp...whatever. Faleen was finished with Izaya anyway and vice-versa. Who cared who else she befriended? If one could even call her idea of relationships with humans to be friendships...

While Lex hasn’t been working in the project that had went wrong, messily, and unexpected, it didn’t mean that it hadn’t affected his work. The Science labs had been a partner in whatever it was and he was working in that department and things were a bit hectic.
Which meant more hours and more chances to prove himself in the department so things had a bit of an upside. Lex was coming in as often as he could to help out without risking burning out. Didn't need to send the wrong message.
He lifted his dex to get inside the labs and stepped in when the door swished open. “Hello, everyone, what needs to be done today?” He called out, ready for the next assignment.

"Sure," Aulus shrugged and nodded to the girl who'd offered; he was no fan of being prodded but he was used to it by now, it didn't make all that much difference who did it. "So who are we theorizing about anyway?" Might as well have something interesting to talk about while he was here right?

The blond who had spoken to Izaya furrowed his brow when the trainee looked over. "Yeah I thought you looked familiar, weren't you Faleen's partner?"
The light frown on his face was enough to hint that he had an opinion on the matter, even if it was just a mild one.
The girl who had offered to help Aulus with his arm made a gesture for him to follow her to the Robotics lab, leading him out of the room.
"Theorizing... well I guess not really, Agent Faleen didn't show up to work today, and I guess I'm worried that she might have been injured in a way that no one noticed." she glanced over her shoulder at the larger man.
The spiked hair man let out a sigh "you're just getting yourself worked up." He called after the female while she lead the Agent away, though did not follow, taking a slow sip from his coffee.
The Agent Zacharie had spoken to in the hall stopped to be able to address the purple haired grunt.
"Agent Faleen? Last I hear she never showed up for her shift. Good luck getting her on her dex too, why? Why are you looking for her?"

Izaya blinked. Well, at least it wasn't, 'the traitor who got himself turned into a living experiment' or 'the idiot who got his recruiting agent killed' or any number of other disreputable titles. Perhaps the speaking agent knew more about said things if his frown was any indication, especially since he used past tense when stating his inquiry, but 'Faleen's partner' was a label that the informant didn't mind. In fact, perhaps it was the perfect opportunity to relate to and enter the conversation.
"...Yes, I was," the black-haired man confirmed, nervously adjusting the brim of his cap. "I, uh...actually I was hoping to find out more about what happened to her. We haven't kept in touch since...for a while."
Maybe these people knew about his robotic eye and maybe they didn't. Whatever the case, he wasn't going to risk blabbing about it to people who might not have been supposed to know. "I know the projects are very secret here and that only those with clearance or those working on them have access to their information, but...is there anything you can tell me about it? How it went wrong, what kind of explosion it was, how Faleen had been acting strangely since it happened?"
As he spoke, he set his broom back in his janitorial cart and brought out his dex to type Faleen a message. Doubtless others had already tried and failed, but it couldn't hurt to attempt it himself, could it? Typing up a quick message, (Faleen, it's Izaya. Where are you?) he sent it before sticking the device back into his pocket.

Robotics labAt Adam's comment the first grunt gave another snort "Adam, is there ever a time you don't say the most inappropriate thing ever? You do know this is supposed to be a professional setting right?" The second Grunt however, more curious about the hard drives walked over to glance at the pad that Adam had been working with. "huh... Maybe someone forgot to complete the sigh out process." He offered. Though let Adam go about his work in researching the missing hard drives. A quick search in when the drives were check out would show that the Lead of robotics Agent Faleen Ewell was the last person to check them out, at about 11:56 PM the previous night. The Small school or Carvanha could be located on the other side of the lab, where Faleen's work area was located, a massive tank hanging along and over the side of the wall, with a vast number of tubes leading away from it and toward the rest of the room. Within the walls, the three fish were jetting around together with a certain panic to their movement, arguing and biting at one another before another pokemon caught their attention and decided to speak to them. The Carvanha in deep red spat, clacking his jaws and rushing the tank's glass toward the ghost type, he was almost instantly knocked away by a darker blue Carvanha with swirling yellow eyes.

"Clean up." A women dressed in a white Agent' lab, and long brown hair pulled back into a braid answered Lex when he walked in, her hand pressing to her lower back and looking as if she had been doing a lot of labor before he had come in.
"All grunts are to report to the testing room three to help with clean up, just be sure to stay out of the taped up area's investigations hasn't swept that part of the lab yet."

Well that certainly didn't sound like Faleen.
...At all.
"Never showed...?" He repeated slowly, mostly to himself, as his eyebrows furrowed in confusion. "I was working in the medical wing when people were brought in for the accident. I didn't see Agent Faleen personally but I heard that she had sustain no serious injuries and had been released...I was hoping that I would have a chance to talk to her but I've been busy up until now." He explained, watching the various people in the room mill about the room. "Has anyone seen her since she was discharged from the medical wing?"

[Robotics Lab]"Ah, professional weshional. We're doing inventory. I'm sure this is the most boring and lackluster job possible. A little joking never harmed anyone." Adam nodded at the comment by the second Grunt, "...Maybe you're right..." Or maybe you're wrong, Adam thought, his face turning sober as he read the checkout time and names. Faleen last night, nearly midnight. Faleen might be a workaholic, but checking in so late, not showing up the next day, not responding to her 'dex... Manny called. He was frowning as he kneaded his ghostly claws together,
Approaching Manny and the tank, Adam positioned himself so he could be eye level with the Carvanha, "Hey guys. I can understand the Haunter, but unfortunately not you. So I'm going to have him be a translator, okay? I'm super sorry no one's talked to you. That's real bs, man. Are you hungry? I can get you some food."
Adam took in a deep breath and let it out slowly, "Faleen hasn't been acting herself. What's different, exactly?"

For a moment the blond didn't answer Izaya, glancing over his red Trainee uniform still wearing in initial frown,
"In all honesty Agent Faleen's been acting strange ever since her partnership with you fell apart." He said in a very clear accusatory tone toward the Trainee. "She used to be really passionate about everything we did here, but its been months since anyone's seen her use her work for anything but to bury herself into and shut everything else out. After the accident, I think the loss might have knocked something you took from her back, only it gave her back so much more. She smiled again, but like... differently, seemed delighted by everything we were working on, more hands on with everything then we had ever seen her.... she was kinda... funny? I guess is the word, or she tried to be, in a really weird, not so funny way."
The blond closed his hands around his mug "I can only assume its the pressure finally building up too much. proof that even people like Faleen snap."
At the question to know what kind of project it was the man just shook his head lightly.
"I guess you're not content with the rumors, why would you care so much what happened to Faleen anyway? ... To be honest I don't know what the project was, She put me in charge of a different project, this one in particular was her brain child."

"Uh yeah." The Agent replied to Zacharie "Word from Robotics said she worked the last two days, from what I heard anyway. Sorry, Grunt, I think they're trying to get someone to go check her quarters, If you want, you can probably run down and see if she's overslept or something? Before she gets into too much trouble for skipping out."

"Joking's all fine and good but do you always have to be so gross about it?" The grunt mumbled, tapping a little harder on his pad as he counted his product.
Both of the grunts blinked when Adam suddenly walked away and toward where Faleen's work station was, "hey where-?" blinking in confusion as they watched him initiate a conversation with the the Agent's school of Carvanha.
the dark Carvanha snapped again, seeming to be the more agitated as he swam aggressively around the tank, despite the other two hovering by the glass where the human had walked up.
the dark blue female eyes him, before looking back over to Adam
The other Carvanha added
The dark Carvanha charged the glass where Adam was, bouncing off of it.
The female Carvanha interjected the other two forcefully, looking back at Adam

Manny relayed the information faithfully. He also jumped, as well as Adam, when the Carvanha charged at the glass. Laughing softly, Adam took a step back. Carvanha were territorial, and already upset, they probably didn't appreciate the tall grunt's presence.
"No no, guys. I believe you when you say something was wrong. I'm really worried about her too." Adam's brow furrowed again, "Really worried. Did she ever say something weird to you, or around you that you could hear? I saw the report said she checked s**t out last night, real late. Did she come near here? I know I'm asking a lot of questions, and you're being really helpful. Thank you. You guys are our best bet at figuring out where your Agent is and getting her back here, and not smiling at you as if she were going to eat you." Adam gave them a weak smile. Joking with fish now. Tougher crowd than even the grunts.
