Posted by Civilian Erin Hazen-Cooper (Director of Terraforming) in [Government Tower] Visiting an Old Friend
In the two years that Erin had been absent, OED had clearly changed. Not so much that it was unrecognizable, but just enough that it made what was familiar look just different enough for someone who had done the commute many times to notice.

For the most part, the Government Tower was just as she remembered it, both inside and out. Inside, some faces were the same, some faces were new, but that was to be expected.

Realizing that this was technically her first day back on the job and that she had no access to any floor of the tower just yet, Erin walked to the main reception desk and after finding someone available, she asked with a polite smile.

“Hi, my name is Erin Hazen-Cooper. I’m the…” she was going to say ‘new’, but she wasn’t really new now, was she? “… returning… Director of Terraforming. I’m here to see Governor th’Renn.” Even saying it felt weird, but Erin was proud of her former colleague nonetheless. “Would it be possible to let him know that I’m here? Or would it be preferable if I go up to 49?”

The young man at the counter smiled, he motioned to a piece of class about the size of a hand on the counter. “Place your hand on the glass” he requested one hand on the keyboard the other where it could not be seen. When the clearance game back, he smiled. “Facial and bio confirmed.” His once hidden hand produced a small coloniel government combadge. “Director Hazencooper” he said the names flowed together like they were one. “The govenor is in a meeting with the Lieutenant govenor, but you are free to proceed to the 49th floor, and wait” he said. “Your officer is on 48, east wing, 4803” not noted “Welcome back” he then looked back to his screen.
