"She is."

Jack nods.

"She loves working with people to help them through their problems. That's why she goes to the Vault twice a week."

"The Vault?"

Her brows furrowed in confusion as she gathered the next file, beginning to organize the papers in the right order.

"She sees the criminals who are stationed there, to try and help rehabilitate them."

Jack nods.

"She's always been like that, though."

"That must be a tough job," she said, without stopping.

The files were easy to organize. Getting them where they would need to be might be harder, and organizing the ones that needed immediate attention...

She handed one file over to Jack. It was the report on Kieran's surrender, capture, and holding.

"But very rewarding! I would love to do that kind of work. Rehabilitation is just as important as field work."

Evie gave a firm affirmative nod.

"It is."

Jack says, sounding a little distracted as he looks down.

He hasn't read this file yet.

"I bet she could help you get into it."

"I don't know if I have the fortitude for that," she said with a little chuckle, letting him read the file while she continued cleaning.

She moved his coffee mug for a moment to gather a coffee stained piece of paper and looking it over.

If it was important, she'd find its place. Otherwise, she would throw it away. She was certain there were some pieces that didn't need to be looked at.

It looks like a page from a self-help book on keeping organized!

"She could... uh...."

....damn.

"Wait, we have a Chthonic prisoner who wants to make a deal?"

She tossed that page. No reason for that, now. She chuckled to herself before glancing back at him.

She nodded. "He surrendered at the battlefront," Evie explained. "So everybody opted to bring him here, instead."

"I see."

Jack frowns.

"I guess that's going to be something we need to deal with at some point, anyway."

"I was planning on going to talk to him, Sir. Probably right after this."

She paused a moment, then turned to look at him. "I don't trust this man, but I also don't think he can be lying to us. I'd like to get him to agree to let me see into his head."

She was frowning then. It was always easier with somebody who was willing to let her in.

"Even if his resolve is strong enough to keep me out of his secrets, I should be able to tell when that is. And I might get the names and locations of other important Empire members."

Her frown deepened and she looked down, away from him.

"Unless you think that's a bad idea, Sir?"

"That depends."

Jack shrugs.

"If he surrendered to us so willingly, then he's confident in being able to take whatever we try on him. I'd be careful of being too... free, with information, until we know what he wants."

She gave him a firm nod. "Of course, Sir," Evie said, her frown starting to fade.

"I'll report back to you with whatever I find. We can talk while I clean up a little more."

She'd already put a pretty heavy dent in his mountain. "Oh, also. These files need your signature, Sir. Completed cases that need to be archived once you sign." She grabbed the smaller stack of files, all full of reports on completed cases.

"I have all the faith in the world in you."

Jack nods, before looking down at the files.

"....ah yes. More signing."

His least favorite part of the job.

The faith made her smile again. She felt a boost of energy. She could do this.

"I'll try to keep the signing to a minimum, Sir," she promised with a light heart.

"These are all organized and ready to be filed. I'm going to get some breakfast and go speak with the spy. I'll be back after lunch?"

"I eagerly await hearing from you."

Jack laughs, moving to sit down at his much-more-manageable desk.

She waved to him, then, and started to walk out.

"I'll bring you lunch."

And she wasn't asking.

"Ah ha...."

What a nice girl.

Jack waves to her on her way out!
