She remains as still as possible as the other comes in, to the point of holding her breath as much as she can manage. Watching as he seats himself, they take his relaxed demeanor as a sign of not being spotted yet. Okay, that was at least good. Means she still had a chance- maybe if she just waited it out, he’d just go ahead and leave, giving her a window to sneak back out with out even being- shit. 

Okay, so much for that. Maybe this was still salvageable, there was something she could do to squeeze her way out of here. No point in hiding now that she’d been spotted, Lidia stood slowly, facing the other. But how to try and answer, without raising suspicion...?

“I’d- Perhaps. You-” c’mon, think of something! “-Have you seen a rat in here? Blonde-ish colored? He’s one of mine pets, so, I’d hate for something to have happened to him...”

He hadn’t really expected much – after all, who would expect someone to be hiding in their office after returning from dinner – nor had he heard much sans what he suspected to be the shuffling of mice, so he simply sat down at his desk. If his intruder was watching, they would see him prop his legs up on his desk and lean back in his chair, picking remnants of dinner out of his teeth.

Once dinner was finished being fished out, he leaned further back to stretch heavily, gut making itself more prominent as his arms reached further over his head. One eye cracked open and –

Whoa. His eyes widened. He could see a pinkish coat tail peaking from around the edge of the counter. 

“…Can I help you?”

The medbay had been quiet for a good part of the evening- a good time to file away some old records. However, after awhile of this, a break was needed- and the rats did need feeding, so now would be a great time for Lidia to get that out of the way. Opening the cage in the corner’s door seemed to summon about four rats, all squeezing out of their burrow to clamber up to the food bowl, pushing and squeaking as she took it out to fill it. 

Of course, it’d be in the middle of this she heard someone coming in- feed bag in head, she looked up to the direction of the door leading into the medbay.

“I’m back here if you’re needing something.” She directed.

She squints at him and the bike, reluctantly standing from her lounging spot now.

“Nein, I’m neither of those, so I wouldn’t be of much help.” Lidia shakes her head. However, she does remove herself from the scout’s way, picking up the last bottle of beer. The path he’d pointed out wasn’t too close to the RED base, but did go past it- perhaps she should tag along, just to make sure moving that motorcycle was all they were up to. 

That voice only made him pause, toes pushing into the dirt beneath his feet as he debated just continuing on without saying a word; Then again, he couldn’t run very far when he was trying to push along his motorcycle…

Fuck, time to actually stop and explain.

“Are ya administration?” Elliot asked with no intended cheekyness in his tone, but a flat, intense blue-eyed stare. “Or a mechanic…? Because–” Eli pointed with one finger in the direction he was headed, “Thats where I’m goin’”

“Ja, these are physical reports- it’s good to know that I’ve finally come to the right person, then...” She chuckles, thumbing through them one last time to be sure they were all in order and present before handing them over to the man behind the desk. Lidia returns the smile, if not mostly out of the relief that with this her running around for today should be over. Well, hopefully at least.

“There wasn’t anything else needed with these, correct?”

“Hm? Well, that rather depends what they are.” Percy looked up from his reports he was finally getting to after his short time off. His nose was a little red, but he offered the woman a small smile. He’d just gotten over having the flu but seemed to be on the up and up.

“I handle shipments, medical or otherwise, as well as mercenary files, so if it’s medical files, I can take those too.” He straightened his tie a moment, looking at the woman expectantly. He’d not seen her before, that that wasn’t too uncommon. He certainly hadn’t seen everyone here. He tended to see Medics more regularly though.

Sometimes, it was just nice to get out and have a a few beers during one of the few times she actually felt like she could handle not having herself constantly busy. It’d be nice if she could enjoy it more often- but, then again, maybe it wouldn’t be as nice if it was more frequent. 

It didn’t seem they’d be getting that rare downtime they enjoyed for much longer now, if the person approaching was any sign. And, as they squinted at them, it only got better, seeing they were BLU. 

“I don’t know what business you think you have here seeing we’re on ceasefire, but I suggest you turn right back from where you came.”

Lidia could be something of a busybody, probably a side effect of her curiosity. And now, it had escalated into snooping around the opposing team’s medbay, mostly interested in what exactly these other medics had been up to, or if they’d been conducting any research of particular use to her. And, of course, if time permitted, maybe they could get away with some light sabotage of the various medical equipment to really shake things up. 

Of course, now that would all have to wait for later, seeing as reverberating steps and the flick of a light had them scrambling under a counter to hide from whoever had came in.

((omg good- and bless thank you so much ;v; ))

She’d been too busy poking at viscera to hear the other shuffle in- right now she was making short work of the stomach. In fact, Lidia was in the middle of a cut when the gruff voice and finger unceremoniously shoved into her workspace had startled the hell out of her, jerking the scalpel up and (hopefully) away from the intruding stranger. 

For a moment, it was brandished as a makeshift weapon, pointed at the other until they’d seen the red of the other’s outfit, prompting them to lay it neatly on the tray, before composing herself. 

“Damn it! Don’t- at least knock or something instead of sneaking up on people!” She barks, straightening up.

“...And it’s not roadkill, it’s a specimen I ordered.”

It was hard to find Lidia not engrossed in some kind of work, even in her free time- right now, she was in the middle of dissecting some small critter, a hobby she’d picked up to satisfy her own need of cutting things open when there were no people to be worked on. It was also a nice contrast from the usual work on the battlefield, because at least here in the medbay, she could afford to let her guard down some, to better be absorbed and attentive to her work.

Of course, that also meant not being able to notice anyone who’d decide to waltz in as of now, not unless they made a fairly loud commotion or got too close. Not that she would be expecting anyone to be in here this late in the evening, anyways.
