Nearly lunchtime. She smiles, settling in behind her desk for the take-out from Al's Slow Food that's set up neatly in front of her. Thank the Code for her delivery service having thrived and expanded during the recent influx of residents to Mainframe; there'll be a grocery order waiting for her at home tonight so she can take the time to cook a full meal for Bob and Mairi, after picking them up after this interview.

There's a buzz from her intercom.

"Yes, Otora?"

"Secured link from the Guardian Collective, sir-ma'am. Should I accept or cancel?"

"Accept; it's my usual minutely call from the Prime Guardian."

Dot sighs and sits back in her chair, watching the vidwindow with a neutral expression, with only the required touch of disdain this conversation would call for.

"Hello, Turbo."

"...If I could have it my way we'd never process any of this outside of Mainframe, ever." Dot sighs, sitting back in her chair. "I think you're going to want to start right away with taking care of the Guardian Cadets...and making sure not a byte of this leaves the school or the collective."

"You're also going to want to talk to Enzo right away. He got lucky in his friends figuring out his access to Userspace, and have agreed to secrecy."

"If you want to ask questions about the limitations of access..."

"Yeah, have to agree with you on that."

He ponders her last comment. "Not right now. Maybe later."

"I'll access Enzo first and see what he has to say. Then I'll go from there."

"If he can't fill in all the questions you have about Milliways access, I'd be happy to give it a listen and see what I can answer." Dot nods, reaching for her lunch and her PDA. "Oh, and do let me know what kind of punishment you'll have in store for him? I've still got to show my disapproval of his sloppiness."

"I'll talk to him," Turbo repeats.

"I want to hear his side of it."

Because whatever that side is, Turbo has a feeling it's going to be 'interesting' in all kinds of trouble-making ways.

"Ofcourse, until next minute, Turbo. Take care."
