The rest of the paperwork was finished, and Cave's office settled back to how it had always been before she had left. When they got back, Caroline would be away from her cleared desk. Instead, she was busy down in the labs and as far away from that desk as possible.
The next few days were more of the same. She'd let Elena have her little show, do the entierty of the work, and be rewarded with a trip down to the labs to over see research and development. It was hard, but she was doing her best to move the feelings associated to Cave to Aperture alone. With all her effort she tried to forget everything that came before this day. There had never been years of perfect partnership, just this humble and lowly position. Just...just her and science and nothing else.
Research and development was booming as a result. Caroline was excellent at guiding the sector and with all her heart and focus in it, it wasn't long before they were pushing new breakthroughs.
A form ended up on Elena's desk while Caroline was in the lab. It was a letter from Dr. Hanstle asking Cave for possible subject names for an experiment with a new stasis chamber. There was a 45% chance for survival, but they wanted an intelligent subject to participate, someone perhaps a little smarter than the subjects that they normally got in.
All it would need is a name and Cave's signature and that person would be forced into the experiment and not be seen for a month with no garentee of survival or side effect.
