For starters, Sir Hughes is late to the equipment briefing by a good fifteen minutes.  Yep.  Sorry, guys.  When he does finally show up, he's coming down the hall in ridiculously casual wear, as if maybe he just rolled out of bed.  He mumbles an apology as he pats his pockets down to try and locate his card, before finally discovering it was tucked behind his ear with an "Aha!"  He fumbles it through the reader, and the doors labelled "Biohazard"  slide open.

He guides them through the bizarre multi-storied library and up the steps, beyond the models suspended from the ceiling that look like space age designs for jet planes, cars, boats, and any number of other things.  At the end of the balcony he swipes his card through the reader with a much higher degree of ease and then ushers them all inside.

"Well c'mon, c'mon, don't got all day," he mutters, even if he was the one who ... showed up late.  The doors  depress with a space age his. revealing a clean white laboratory, with rows and rows of tables and lab equipment set up. Numerous knights buzz around in white lab coats, working under microscopes and on computers, conferring over a number of projects.

"This is one part of the lab, where the Hoard does their research and general... bomb-building or whatever," he says, waving a hand vaguely in that direction as he heads for the left hand side of the room.  He places his palm on a panel there until the red light blinks green, and then moves into the narrower space there - a long room with rows of labelled cases and cabinets with transparent glass revealing what's inside.

You mean, nuclear weaponry?

[chiakiyoshida]

[Helpfully:] They keep those in an outbuilding, along with the chemical and bioweapons.

[No, she's kidding, really. She has no idea. Too bad it's not terribly evident from her face and tone of voice.]

[lear]

Oh, good gracious.

[ Lear pulls a bit of a face. The ability to keep that sort of power on the mothersoil, as it were, means the organization has more influence than she'd expected. ]

[Oh my god, you guys] That was a joke.

[chiakiyoshida]

[Still deadpanning.] I thought having a sense of humour was forbidden in the Knights. That's how Wynn behaves, anyway.

[lear]

[ Now that, she'll laugh at. ]

If that were true, I'm afraid I'd have to take my leave.

[He figures now he has to be VERY LITERAL with you people] We don't build big bombs. Just minor explosives.

[lear]

Well, that's all right then!

[ Yeah, bet everyone sure is relieved to have Lear's stamp of approval. ]
