[ there's a sizeable pause here. sulu isn't quite sure of his answer, even less certain how to put it into text. ]

I got held up looking for someone.
It was unintentional.

Ah. Did you find them, then?

No. He's gone.
He was the head engineer, before.

[Oh, Sulu. You know just the thing to make him zoom the fuck in on something.]

Just missed him, have I.
Clarify 'gone' for me?

[ he thought you would be interested. ]

By a single jump, Mr. Scott.
Gone as in no longer aboard.
I thought he'd gone walkabout, but he must have left via the jump.

Have a name, did he?

Isaac Clarke. He was a friend.
Tony Stark has the position now, since he's gone.

Didn't realize we were so official. Isn't that nice. People just vanish often do they?

Most departments have a head.
I can give you the list if you like.

Often enough. A couple come and go with every jump.
You were here before.

So I hear tell. All these misadventures and not even a good hangover to show for it. Don't suppose my bits were put in storage?

I've got what you left behind.
Boxed up when you'd gone.

You're a right saint, Mr. Sulu. I'll pop by for them, then.

I try, Mr. Scott.
I can stow them in Engineering, if that's easier for you.
I'm not much in my room.

Brilliant. I'm not much for being out of engineering.

I figured.
I'll be down as soon as I can.
