Erica was fairly sure that Cagalli-in-disguise was no less recognizable than Cagalli-on-official-business these days, but she wasn't going to say that.

If Cagalli needed a bit of time for... anything, really... She could get it at Morgenroete.

"Need to debate this tomorrow," Cagalli said, holding up a tablet once she'd settled onto a crate in Erica's main MS development hangar. Erica had her own tablet and work.

"That's fine. Bounce ideas off me if you need to."

"Okay."

To the casual observer, Cagalli's comfortable hoodie and cargo pants, combined with her relaxed posture, suggested she was not hard at work. But Erica knew she was. And the hangar was quiet but not silent.

Erica went back to her work, which mostly involved monitoring a download, and did her best to give Cagalli the space she needed.

Maybe Cagalli could even relax a little, for real, once whatever the next day's task was over, but Erica wasn't sure.

Maybe she could see if Kira was up for a brief kidnapping of some sort...

Erica smiled and then glanced over to Cagalli.

Cagalli looked up at her.

"Can I read my opening to you?"

Erica checked the download. Still going strong.

"Absolutely."
