Evelyn busied herself with all of the paperwork coming in, making sure that Jack would have as little work as possible when everything was said and done. It made it easier to keep everything off her mind. 

However, even a workaholic like Evie needed a break.

She had gotten a simple chicken sandwich from the cafeteria and taken it outside, where she could sit in the grass and nibble on it, looking out over the seemingly empty campus. She looked... upset, to say the least. And tired. Deep bags were under her eyes, and she might have lost a little weight.

"What's up Buttercup?"

Eric asked plopping down, it was hard not to notice that Eve didn't have her normal bubble about her today.

She jumped, squeaking and almost dropping her food.

"Eric!"

Evie tried to smile, putting the sandwich on a paper towel and brushing her the crumbs from her hands.

"Sorry! You startled me!"

"I'm very sneaky."

He said with a chuckle before nudging her with his elbow.

Her chuckle was genuine and she nudged him back.

"I can see that. You're like a ninja!"

"In the night!"

He'd punch the air dramatically!

She laughed quietly, nodding.

"So how have you been, Mister Ninja?"

"As good as they can be, I guess."

Eric always made her smile. She tilted her head to one side.

That didn't sound good!

"Sure."

He'd lean forward, planting his elbows on his knees.

"Tell me all about it. Vent away. Whatever you need."

She sighed softly.

"I'm so used to interacting with people, you know? I try to help out with the new agents as much as I can, and talk to Jack, and you haven't been around much." Evie gave a little shrug, but it obviously upset her a bit. "Jack's gone and most of the newer agents went to Europe and I'm trying to keep myself busy keeping everything smooth and clean."

"Yeah... sorry about that."

He said with a frown.

"I found out some troubling stuff about my power so I've been burying myself in books. Turns out my power has a pretty bad side effect..."

The frown deepened.

"Like... damaging the fabric of reality to dangerous levels..."

Problematic to say the least.

"That sounds really complicated," Evie said with a thoughtful frown.

"What have you found out?"

"That it's really complicated."

He said with a weak chuckle.

"But I'll figure it out. I'm not one to let hurdles stop me."

"Well I'm not gonna say no to help. If you figure out how to not rip reality apart I'm totally down to hear you out."

Maybe a fresh perspective is what he needed?

She nodded, placing a finger against her chin as she thought about it.

"I can probably see if there is anybody in Paradigm files with a similar power? Maybe there is some research already done FOR us!"

"Maybe. Admittedly that's not a route I went with since the impression I had was that I'm a pretty unique case. Well, except for Val. But I already talked to her."

Which provided some food for thought, but nothing tangible. Yet. But this likely wasn't a quick fix problem.

"But this isn't about me right now. It's about you! What can we do to cheer you up?"

He had a personal problem but he was worried about cheering her up? Eric definitely knew how to make a girl feel special! She was obviously brightening up at his attention.

"I don't know. Do you want to just go get hot chocolate? That might be nice!"

"Sure, my treat."

He'd say with a grin.

"Want to grab some in the mess hall or should I go grab some helmets and we can hit up a place off campus?"
