Gwen's character sits on Spooky's chair, flipping through her journal, her right leg crossed over her left. Spooky had disappeared, nowhere to be found, and so she had decided to do some light reading, maybe some spring cleaning, it is around that time of year. She whistles a tune and taps her right foot in the air.
"I came as fast as I could," a male voice with a British accent says, a little exasperated, "You would not believe the amount of traffic between the core and here. I told Noelle it was quiet, I was a liar."
"I'm going to pretend I actually care," Gwen's character responds, standing up.
"I keep forgetting you're rude," the man grumbles, "What is the emergency?"
"Spooky is missing."
"Oh, I hadn't noticed... Yes, that's quite the problem isn't it? Well, give me a moment," there's the rustling of papers and the clapping of hands.
Lancer runs in holding a large stack of thirty, maybe forty, papers. He hands them to Gwen and runs back out. She looks at them in horror, then looks at the ceiling.
"This is a joke, right?" She probes.
"It actually isn't. Fill out that missing persons report ASAP, then call me, it's out of my control unless it's reported. Besides, we'll probably give it to someone like Rookie or Sir Captain to take care of."
"I don't even get Hotshot?!"
"Unless there's a real emergency, this is probably just Spooky playing hooky."
"That wouldn't be in character," Gwen counters.
"And? When we find her, we'll sit her down in the auditorium and show her the Good Employee Film."
"Oh goodie, I'll be waiting," Gwen says sarcastically as she rolls her eyes.
"AJ... rude versions... talk back..." the Narrator mumbles, his voice becoming distant as he leaves.
Gwen sighs and looks at the papers she was handed.
"Might as well do something with my life, 'ey! Specimen 3, get over here!" She calls.
The ghost floats over, confused on why it was called.
"Oh, sorry, wrong one. I meant Specimen 12, it helps when they have arms," she says smugly as she begins filling out the paperwork
