Erica paused as Jake said what he did before looking. AS she pulled her collara away from her a bit, it revealed the markings that covered her arm, clearly.

"Shit!" She exclaimed, quickly covering it and laying a hand over it, making it that he couldn't see anything.

The air started to clear once the markings were covered.

"I have to go." She said quickly.

"Get... this covered... before shit hit s the ..." She paused before looking to Jake again.

"Wait."

"..... you're... not..." She paused, a confused expression on her face.

"Uhhh... How do you feel...?"

Jake paused for a moment.

"I..." he stammered.

"Eh?" he muttered.

"I feel fine." he said.

"I mean, I get lonely being here all the time, but... I deal with it." he shrugged.

"But I'm fine." he assured her.

"If you need to deal with that marking, go ahead." he continued.

"Don't let ME hold you up."

"Jake... how..." Erica started before pausing, looking to her wrapped hand.

"All right... Can we test something?" She asked, her voice curious.

"Because now I have to know."

Jake raised an eyebrow when she said that.

"Uh?" he muttered.

"Test something?" he asked.

"Uh.... sure? I guess?" he said further, shrugging.

"Whatever I can do to help." he told her.

"Go ahead. What do I need to do?" he asked her.

"Anything special?"

Erica just sighed lgihtly before taking a quick look down the halls to make sure no one was approaching. When she returned to the desk, she removed the glove on her right hand, and unwrapped the bandages that were there as well. As she did so, the air changed, even if no one could rightly identify how it changed.

She held her hand out toward Jake, wondering what would happen, or how he was, as she watched him intently.

She hoped this wouldn't cause him to implode mentally, of course.

Jake was silent as he extended her arm towards him.

"Uhhh..." he then stammered.

"So... am I supposed to be doing something here?" he asked.

Before she could answer, she could see... something... on him.

They looked like thin white strands of... string. Or maybe silk. But they were flashing every so often.

And it looked like every time they flashed, they pushed away the 'darkness' that threatened to engulf him.

Erica just smiled softly.

"No. No, you're good." She said as she just covered her hand again.

". . . . I think I have an idea as to why you're not losing your shit like everyone else is." She commented before pausing.

"Oh... damn." She muttered, taking a breath to steady to herself. For some reason, she got hit with an extreme wave of vertigo. Which was odd, as she wasn't one that experienced vertigo.

Just as she started to cover her hand... and experience her vertigo... Ty stepped in from the outside.

"Woah!" he exclaimed.

"Hey, you okay?" Jake asked Erica, before looking at Ty.

"And what is it, agent King?" he asked Ty.

"I'm just here to grab some things for the kid while she's on assignment." Ty commented.

"But wow, there was a thickness to the air here." he then mumbled.

Erica was silent for a moment befor enodding.

"I... yeah... yeah I'm ok" She answered.

"Just... had a few seconds where I was. But... I'm all right." She assured Jake before finishing with her glove and turning toward Ty.

"How is Miki doing, anyway?" She asked, her voice curious.

"Is she doing all right with all this?"

"She is." Ty responded.

"Bit lonely. But she likes time to herself." he said.

"That's good." Jake said.

"Anyway, what happened?" Ty asked.

"Everything all right here?"

Erica was silent for a moment.

"Yeah... things are all right." She answered.

"I... was just testing something with Jake here." She added.

"Don't let me hold you up." She added with a light chuckle.

"I'm going to ... head back to where I should be. Deal with the hell in the interrogation wing." She added with a sigh.

"Jake... you might want to mention to Anya that it seems I have no affect on you." Was the last thing she said before heading for the door.

Jake was silent, before nodding.

"All right." he said.

"Huh?" Ty muttered.

"Why is that relevant?" he asked.

"What's going on?" he asked further.

"Did I miss something?"

Later, he was dressed in casual clothes, pulled up to a house in a rental car, and made his way to the door with a messenger bag.

He then rang the bell.

He was left waiting for a few seconds, before the door was opened.

"Wait... Ty?" The one there asked, shock in her face and voice.

"I... didn't actually expect Sharp to allow you to come up here." She added before stepping out of the way for him to enter. As he did so though, he noticed that she looked... a bit odd. A bit more dishevelled than usual.

When she shut the door, he sighed.

"Surprised me as well." he said.

"But I DO look inconspicuous." he told her.

"Plus... I guess he thought you could use some companionship for a brief moment." he went on.

"I dunno, the whole Unit's gone nuts." he said further.

"And Hal's been avoiding people."

'I... yep. You do." She agreed. "Me, not so much normally. I had to dye my hair back to natural for this."

"Want some coffee or something?" She asked before he continued to talk as he walked with her.

"Companionship? That'd be fantastic." She agreed. "How long are you going to be here?"

"A few days." Ty answered.

"Get's me outta the unit." He added. She just sighed.

"No, Miki, you don't get it. The place has been going insane, and no one knows why." He told her. Miki paused before looking at him.

"Wait, what?" She asked. "And what do you mean that Hal's been avoiding people? That's so out of character for him."

"I mean, he's avoiding people." Ty responded.

"He doesn't have meetings any more. He hardly comes into the office." he said.

"He telecommutes. He sends people on missions by email or voice mail." he went on.

"It seems like he is literally avoiding contact with people." he continued.

"The odd time someone HAS gotten direct contact with him, they say he's been snappish and bitter." he then said.

"Spits venom with every word."

Miki was silent.

"That... that's so not..." She said before sighing.

"I knew something was coming. I knew it. I couldn't put a finger on it, and I'm more than ever relieved I accepted this assignment." She admitted.

"...." Ty was silent for a moment as well, before shaking his head.

"Had another vision, huh?" he asked.

"Or... whatever it technically is." he muttered.

"Well, yeah, you ARE missing a real shitshow." he told her.

"It's lucky you're out here." he said further.

"How have things been here, anyway?" he asked.

"Any information or things of note?"

Miki just sighed.

"Not really." She answered.

"I'm here just for general information and the like, adn I'm not finding anything of interest." She told him honestly.

"The most exciting thing that happened, is a little girl down the street aced an exam."

Ty just chuckled lightly.

"Heh, fair enough." he said.

"To be fair, you deserve this level of activity and commotion." he told her.

"I'll bet you're thankful for it being so calm here." he went on.

"Seems like a nice neighbourhood, though." he then admitted.

"Kinda lonely at home without you..." he added quietly at the end.
