Re: Helena/John
John didn't really feel like he had a lot of time. The machine needed to be secured and he wanted to start running diagnostics to make sure it had come through the rift intact itself. They didn't have the resources to start over if dimensional travel had fucked it up. And that was besides all the things that needed to be done to set up camp, check on people, there would probably have to be watch rotations set up and he doubted the conversations and catching up with the four leads was anywhere near over.
But, John also believed in making time for the team. So, he smiled and consented as soon as Helena approached. "I remember the restrictions." He should. He'd been there and been the one to catch on to the reason for them. Although, he didn't think she was aware he was also the one who had checked out all the tech that was confiscated from both Helena and Claudia on their arrivals. "I won't know what we need until I've had a chance to look at her, which probably won't happen before things get settled. But, I'll keep it in mind and let you know. Things around here are probably going to change, though, now that Callen and Morgan are resuming command. Assignments like that have historically been their call and it'll be a balancing act for all of us as to which skills are needed most. With this many people, the kids and the dogs, just keeping us all fed and sheltered is going to be a task requiring every hand available."
