Zeek was at Ishiro's desk, reading the email that Vivienne had sent back with notes containing the Titan that was cased in ice in Antarctica that was discovered by the Reolus Satellite which was partially thanks to the Titan's extreme electromagnetic pulse fluctuation. According to Vivienne's notes, this creature seemed to be bigger in Godzilla and what she could see with the pose, it was in mid-fight.

As he and Ishiro read the last of the email, Zeek furrowed his brow at the footnote she had included.

The Devil Has Three Heads

That's all it said, which was rather strange. She had never left a footnote like that before. It usually had two or three lines, not one.

"That's not ominous at all." Zeek attempted to joke. "Whatever this titan is, it must be freaking her out."

Ishiro nodded before typing up a reply and sending it to his former assistant before leaning back in his chair with a soft sigh, taking off his glasses.

Zeek took this time to look at the other's desk. Folders, the older man's laptop, the usual works. Then, his eyes drifted to the framed pictures on the other's desk.

The first one was of his parents that was in black and white. The second was of a woman in a kimono, perhaps at a festival. The third was one of Ishiro, the woman and an infant. Another is of the woman and the boy, now a child and then one of the child who was now a teen. There were no more photographs after that.

"Your family?" Zeek nodded to the pictures, making Ishiro glance.

"Yes. My parents and then my late wife. The infant, child and teenager is my son, Ren. I...have no recent pictures of him. The last one was taken...before my wife passed."

Zeek simply hummed, not going to dig as he understood that Ishiro was a rather private person. The other telling him about his family was more than enough in his eyes.

"I'm pretty sure it's your shift in the control room." stated Ishiro after a beat of silence, making Zeek groan, his frame slumping. Great, just what he needed, being around Rick.

"Yeah, yeah. I don't suppose you can give me another assignment?"

Ishiro merely gave the other an amused look and Zeek sulked out of the office, grumbling.
