<b>FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION, WASHINGTON D.C.</b><br>

<b>09:35</b><br>
<br>
<br>
It's a cold morning. Colder than you've felt since moving here, fitting the cool greys and blues of the city. The air is still, though - flat, like you're trapped in tupperware; a bug under a ten-year-old's manic eye. At least the Hoover Building is a-bustle, as always. A/C turned up maybe a little too high so a few clerks are in shirt-sleeves, not so much that anyone is risking Deputy Ops' wrath over loose ties.<br>
<br>
<br>
First day on the new assignment. It took twenty minutes to find the basement rooms that house Special Circumstances. A little dingy, a little dusty. The door is ajar.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>Spender</b><br>
<br>
<br>
And inside you wait. This has been your lair so long you've practically bled into the walls. Well, some of the posters have, maybe.<br>
<br>
<br>
That much-requested help is on the way. You've got their dossiers in a drawer, and some case files on your desk.</div>

<i>Help</i>, the Assistant Director had said. <i>Help</i>, in that oddly accommodating voice as if he offered Fox some sort of benediction for a heretofore sterling record. Not just a partner, but <i>three </i>more agents to help with a brace of new case files. Fucking Christmas.<br>
<br>
<br>
Cold days in Hell and all.<br>
<br>
<br>
He hunched over the files, looking back to his maps to verify every so often. Mutilations of cattle were typical enough, though the numbers... Fox palmed the Seattle file and felt a little tingle run through his shoulders. Something about these murders spoke to him. Something familiar, but he couldn't say what.</div>

<br>
<br>
Moon shifts in his suit, trying to get it to settle before opening the door to this new assignment. <i>One on one, there is a chance to read what the "Higher Ups" have in store for you, friend of foe. Not so much when it is faceless orders upon high, not knowing where in the bureaucracy and for what intention "they" aim to achieve. It's not all bad, there are plenty of good Agents, working cases, making a difference. Even a few superiors who lead by example, knowing where to leverage for the best results for the case. </i>The suit feels heavy this morning to Du-han, perhaps to some this assignment would equate it to straight-jacket for this office, however he dismisses the notion from his mind. <i>No, more like a suit of chain-mail for the work ahead. Wear if with pride. Well, the badge at least. Time to walk through the ajar door ahead.</i> With a tingle up his spine, like he was being watched, he rapped his knuckles against the door while entering the office.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Agent Spender? Agent Du-han. I've been assigned to your office.” Scanning around the room, some flags raise in the profiling, but nothing to worry about. Clearly, someone dedicated has claimed this space. Walking forwards, he offers a hand, but takes no offense in it not being accepted. This is Spender’s personal space; be forwards and open, let him speak. “Guess I am the first to arrive. Mind if I take a seat?”</div>

There was a strange creaking on the floor outside that stopped and then a polite knock on the door, a little lower than expected, but it was still firm enough to belong to a reasonably fit adult. After it was acknowledge, the door would open, letting a rather neutral-faced blonde man on a wheelchair to dextrously wheel himself in.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Apologies for my lateness, Agent Spender," he spoke out after he came in and closed the door behind him, offering the other agent in the office a quick nod in a greeting. "Agent Sgordon, I've been assigned to your office as of yesterday."<br>

"Coffee, Cooper? Can only offer it black--we don't rate for sugar. Gentlemen?" Spender shuffled his way past the new desks toward the percolator. "I may have the disdain of half the Bureau, but I make damn good coffee." Swirling his drink cool, he regarded his new subordinates, co-workers really. "I understand what you've most likely heard about this place. The graffiti on the door says enough. But here's a rundown, if you're behind: I'm a kook, I go after weirdness no self-respecting agent or department would touch, I shit conspiracy theory when Pillsbury-poked, and I will butt heads with the Assistant Director in ways that section chiefs only dream."<br>
<br>
<br>
He gulps down some Kona and smiles<br>
<br>
<br>
"I take exception to the fact about conspiracies: I'll bring that crap up if I'm bored and we've got a long drive ahead. You don't want to be here? Too bad. AD gave you to me, so there's a reason you're here, even if a little while." He shrugs. "Them's the breaks. Show of hands who likes cattle mutilations? Unsolved, barely-connected serial killings?"<br>

He falls silent and looks over the agents before him. "Sgordon, I'd like you on the murders, yeah." Fox slides the case file forward. "Cooper, Du Han, well, honestly, you're both master classes like Sgordon when it comes to profiling. Therefore, whomever I take with me to Georgia will have to grin and bear it while I postulate over dead cows." Placating palms rise to meet any disagreement. "I didn't even pick this one. Cattle mutilation's heyday was in the '60s, '70s, and '80s. Someone thought it'd be cute to send over and watch me squander budget.<br>

Another nod as he very awkwardly wheels himself a little closer to the table to pick up the case file. The rest of the room fading into the background for a moment.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Understood," he replied, his voice already sounding somewhat distant as he picked up the file slightly shaky hands and opened it.<br>

<br>
This was the first case he had since returning from his forced leave, the first case since that clown decided to toy with him.</div>

-<i>Three dead kids...why was this se</i>-<br>
<br>
<br>
Cooper's question broke him out his revere and he cleared his throat before he spoke relatively quickly, "Err-yes, yes, our case file...I suppose we better get started." Looking up at his new section chief (and symbol of his new hell) he continued even as he oh so awkwardly reversed from the table after handing the file to Cooper, more like thrust out to her to cover up his , "If that is all sir..."<br>
<br>
<br>
Now, since everyone was gathered around the main table, and Agent Cooper was especially close, Robert had to be a little more careful with his manoeuvring, no crush toes on his watch! Unfortunately, he had paid as much attention to the office layout as he should have and so as he reversed, he backed right into the small table behind him, with an audible thud.<br>
<br>
<br>
Right into its corner.<br>
<br>
<br>
With a pained grimace, he shrugged at the others, and turned to Spender, "Do you think you can use my disability status to get some nicer...more <b>rounded</b> tables? Seriously, I will help."<br>
<br>
<br>
-<i>Seriously you fucking clown, I will fucking find you and end you...or just shoot you in the back twice. Yeah, let's see how you'd like that.-</i></div>

After an initial feeling of being peeved at being chosen for the Georgia assignment, considering his skillset, he chastises himself for not immediately recognising why they were picked. <i>Damn, here I was about about to be pissed at being overlooked. Idiot. Of course there's plenty of wheelchair ramps in the middle of Georgia..</i>.<br>

Taking in the exchanges around him, Du-Han considers his new work colleagues. <i>Well, I guess the Xanathos files will be getting bigger, looking at this lot.</i> "Any other prep material for before we get to Georgia? Most of my knowledge on general anatomy stopped back in high school. Is this supposed to be linked to those mutilation cases back in the 90's?"</div>

Robert mulled over his new partner's question, as he slowly wheeled himself to the other desk in the room.<br>
<br>
<br>
-<i> Might as well accept it as soon as I can, someone was far too sloppy and sent this our way instead of the old team. -</i><br>
<br>

<br>
<br>
"To be honest Cooper I'm not quite sure," reaching the table, he turned to face the agent. "Possible suffocation or poisoning, with a written post-it note with the time and location of their deaths..." He leaned back, one of the perks of having a wheelchair, and looked up at the ceiling, "I don't want to get into with any set views, but it looks like we might be dealing with a suicide pact perhaps?"<br>
<br>
<br>
Tapping his fingers against the chair, he frowned a little to himself, "We might need to get a psyche evaluation on the victims before they were found if possible...What about you?"</div>

<br>
The little talk that he and Agent Cooper had shared before they set off was...a little interesting and a little disappointing somewhat, everyone on his last team were criminal profilers, so everyone could chip in on the case. It was one of the reasons why they were just so successful, ten different viewpoints on a disturbed serial-killer's methods gave some stunning results. However, that tiny disappointment was mixed with a greater of curiosity, he knew, of course, about how anthropologists were sometimes hired by law enforcement agencies and how their views gave everyone an interesting new perspective on things, seeing them in action on the other hand...<br>
<br>
<br>
"Agent Sgordon," he shut down his musings as they were approached and greeted by Polanski, he gave them young man a brief smile in an answer to his as he politely accepted the umbrella...though using it with his chair would be awkward at best. "Sounds good to me," he nodded at the offer, he just wanted to get to the lab as soon as possible. "How about you Cooper?"</div>
