"Your nephews and their nanny seem nice," Althea comments and Claire half smiles.
"Yes, they do."
It stays awkwardly quiet for the entire walk to the control room after that.
~~~
The control room consists of numerous consoles and workstations facing a huge wall of monitors, the centermost of which displays a map of the island. Technicians work diligently to keep eyes on every part of the park.
We enter through the elevator pass the security guard and Claire wants to the back center of the room. She prefers to stand between Vivian and Lowery's workstations.
Althea quickly sits in a chair beside Lowery and looks over his station. She gets along best with Lowery because he acts her age.
Lowery's desk as always is covered with toy dinosaurs and he's wearing a Jurassic Park shirt instead of a Jurassic World one.
"What's the live count?" Claire asks.
"Twenty-two thousand, two-sixteen," Vivian reports.
Her and Lowery are in a sharp contrast. She wears a cardigan and a skirt with nicely styled dirty blonde hair. While he wears t-shirt and jeans with messy brown hair and an unkempt mustache.
"Any incidents?"
"Yeah, six kids in the lost and found, uh, 28 down with heat stroke, and some-"
Claire abruptly notices his shirt of the ill-fated and famous Jurassic Park and frowns.
"Where did you get that?" she questions.
"Oh, this? I got it on eBay. Yeah, it's pretty amazing. I got for 150 dollars but the mint condition one goes for 300, easy-"
"Didn't it occur to you maybe that's in poor taste?" Claire says harshly cutting off Lowery's excited gushing.
"The shirt? Yeah, no, it did. I understand people died. It was terrible, but..." his contrite reply quickly turns back into gushing. "That first park was legit! You know, I have a lot of respect for it. They didn't need these genetic hybrids-" Claire sighs deeply but he stays oblivious to her annoyance. "They just needed dinosaurs, real dinosaurs! That's kind of enough-"
"Okay, please don't wear it again," Claire snaps and he goes quiet. I resist laughing, Lowery is one of the only people in this park who isn't afraid to totally be himself around Claire.
"Yeah, wasn't gonna," he grumbles with a pout.
"Did you close the deal?" Vivian queries to change the subject.
