[Dealing with the FBI? Not Kate's favorite thing. Dealing with an FBI consultant who almost put Castle to shame with his erratic behavior and ability to listen to orders? Even less of her favorite thing.
But Gates told her to play nice with their civilian consultant and looked far too pleased when she did it. Kate has a feeling that this is belated payback for making Gates work with Castle to begin with, but that's a struggle for another day.
Right now, she's just going to let Brian observe the scene and make sure that he doesn't get himself killed.]
I'm not sure what you're going to find that our techs didn't, but knock yourself out.
[Mostly because the FBI likes to swing in and take over things without really being courteous to their fellow law enforcement professionals - or at least that's Kate's experience.]
But occasionally we do have to work together for the greater good.
Does the greater good always smell this bad? [He wrinkles his nose, just complaining for the sake of complaining. But he's moving through the scene, letting NZT connect the dots for him.]
How long you been doing this, Kate?
[Doesnt mean he can't have a normal conversation while he gets his detective work on.]
[ nzt meet tomorrow person. by definition, the tomorrow people are humans who, as a result of evolutionary development, have become early instances of the next state of human evolution -- homo superior. cassandra is the child of two homo superiors, which makes her fuckin' hella.
(also they call her a synergist, but let's just go with hella for now. it's accurate.)
cassie also just spent an absurd number of years trapped in a tomorrow people prison where she had her mind manipulated to the point that she fully believed she'd been away at brown for underground. now, however, she's perched across from brian at his tiny little desk, their newest asset tucked under the supervision of their other newest asset and talking her abilities over a plate of jelly donuts. ]
If you would just take this off I could show you, [ she reminds him for probably the fifteenth time, shaking the bracelet that they'd snapped around her wrist that effectively shut her psionic abilities down. she's a flight risk and it isn't hurting her, but it's the principle of the thing. also it's itchy. ]
[Brian still doesn't know how he feels about sharing his space. But the fact that the new asset is also smoking hot eases his irritation. Plus, she's apparently got some crazy abilities that they're trying to dampen.]
Yeah, but see-- if I remove that, they take away my donut privileges for a week.
[He takes a giant bite of one, getting powdered sugar on his nose and jelly at the corner of his mouth.]
i haven't watched last night yet, but i will probably do it sometime tonight

You know, this is kind of a big deal. I thought cops and the Feds didn't really get along. Turf wars and all that.
