Sarcasm always did.

Yeah, the way to her team was laughter and questionable behavior on most days.

“You two are up. I want to know everything about the ten people who were interred last.”

“Why the last ten and not further back?”

Ethan went there.

“He’s going to want them somewhat fresh. So we know he’s been watching the cemetery to find the best‘candidates’.”

That hung there.

Oh, and for a couple of reasons.

“Well, that’s a kink I’m never trying out,” Callen said. “That’s just ick.”

“List?” Tora said, not minding that they were staying in while the agents went out. She was going to be an agent in the near future, and that was all she wanted.

Oh, she was aware.

Elizabeth went there.

“I want everyone double-checking work. I know I put them on the list, but let’s also keep working on everything like we normally would. We’re the pros, and are more likely to catch something if it pops up. I have the feeling like I can’t drop a single ball on this.”
