Caroline watched Luis fade into the distance. She looked at him probably far longer than she should but she couldn’t help it. The rapid fire mind of hers questioned rather he liked her or not. What was this on and off again thing?
"So we're trying to get a line out to where you probably saw them all setting up...so they can cook us that fish thing. The cable got severed, so we'll have to scrounge around for a few meters or so to get out there. We can probably just strip it out a wall, or something,"
She nodded and smiled as she had a good picture of the job they needed to do. “Oh right. I think the larger buildings may have the gauge we need or we need several lengths of smaller gauges. I can splice optics with my eyes closed but I have little experience with wire.” She admitted. She took a tool and popped open a circuit panel.
"Anyways, the regulator is having trouble keeping up with all of the power fluctuations from the rest of the grid, so it keeps burning itself out and the safeties trip every few minutes,"
Her eyebrows went up as she looked at the mess as her eye for detail caught several things. “Yes, Sir. Let me see what I can do with these circuits. The USS Solstice had similar power fluctuations constantly. There was this errant surge that just would keep going through the entire ship. We managed to corral it. “As she took a board out that had a couple of burnt spots. She put on a special set of eye wear to see the circuits more clearly with detail that she extricated from her bag of tricks as her small tools came in handy for circuit panels and circuit boards.
"Do you and Luis talk often,"
She almost dropped her tool before fixing a circuit line and terminated the point. “what!!” she blushed an obvious pink “Well, we .. um. “She fidgeted a bit as she took the eye wear off. “Um. Well yes we talk.. “That was a safe answer. She stiffened up a lot as the uncertainty of the question caught her very much off guard. “Is it wrong?” she asked as the naïve expression filled with consternation looked right at Cobus. It was as if all the insecurity and questions was right there. The little lady tried erecting the safety bubble as she didn’t want it to be there. It was very uncomfortable. “I mean we just talk. I promise nothing else. “The great bubble failed as she gasped. “oh no.. no we just talk.” She blushed more of a red shade.
If it's something important, I'm sure I can manage on my own awhile longer,"
She choked on swallowing air. “No. No. No. “The poor girl shook her head vehemently. “I mean, I don’t even know … “She fiddled with the tool in her hands as the statement is left dangling. “I mean umm. Let’s get these people power.” The very emotions that was hanging right on the sensitive girl’s face was completely shadowed by red now and Caroline looked about ready to cry for such uncertainty.
