Breaking the Ice

[Gar]

Todd was sitting in her bunker, muttering over her data pad as her fingers sailed swiftly over the keys. Soft, rhythmic "bleep"s could be heard with each stroke. The screen was flashing lines upon lines of numeric codes. She was so lost in concentration that she hardly paid much attention to the person entering the room, assuming it to be Ashla. However, when the Kel Dor glanced up from her screen, a small squeak of surprise escaped her throat. It was like a switch had been flipped in her psyche. She snapped to attention, staring up at Unna with wide eyes (or, rather, raised brows, as her eyes were hidden behind the protective goggles), perfectly still, as if calculating her options. Then, without a word, she took up her data pad and quickly retreated into her wall locker, slamming it shut from the inside.
