Going to the labs again the morning after the bomb is dropped somehow seems... sacrilegious almost, to be focusing on the Star Gate when so many thousands of people are gone, in a horrible instant (All she can think about is Byerly and the cheerful man who ran that wonderful patisserie and... oh god, was he right, could she have done more?). Yet it's habit, it's familiarity, and probably one of the few things keeping her from doing something very stupid - like flying at Zahal in a rage.

As soon as she arrives and discovers Micah crying alone, all other worries and concerns are pushed away as she rushes to Micah's side. "Micah?" Kneeling beside them, she lays a tentative hand on their arm, unsure if they want company.
