not canon } { through the looking glass

It starts off as a fairly average day.

Olivia comes in to the office. She catches up on paperwork. She gets called about a potential fringe event. She and the rest of her team suit up and head out. Business as usual.

Then she's told it's in the sewers. She's starting to regret this day already.

At first it doesn't seem like there's much of anything. Sewers are usually known for being dank and disgusting, so that isn't really anything new, and she doesn't spend enough time in them to notice if there's an increase in that. She's mostly just trying not to gag on the smell. If there's nothing down here and she's going to be smelling like sewer for the rest of the night, she's going to get a little pissed off.

She makes it another quarter of a mile before she hears footsteps coming her way. It takes her all of a moment to check with her team and see if anyone else is in her quadrant, and when that answer is no, she's immediately put on edge. She pulls her gun, gets as close to the wall as she can, before inching her way to the junction of the tunnels. The footsteps keep coming faster, and then start to slow.

Once they stop, she takes a breath, before turning around the corner, weapon pointed in the direction of the sound.

"Fringe Division, and you better have a damn good reason for being down here."

[Narrative of a past memory for the force-rip event at [livejournal.com profile] counted_stars.]

It starts off as a normal mission.

It’s a Class-Two event. You don’t disagree with the fact that a vortex anywhere in this country is bad news but Class-Two usually dies out on its own. No need for amber, or any other kind of quarantine, but they are checking it out, just in case. Astrid had said there’s something off about it, and Astrid usually isn’t wrong.

In fact, Astrid is almost never wrong.

The ride over is filled with the same usual joking around that you, Charlie and Lincoln are known for. Today, the subject of the day is the meds that Charlie has to take for his spider problem. The infestation is still new, and making fun of it is a bit awkward, but it’s what you need to do. You need to make this okay, because you won’t be able to deal with it otherwise. Over time, it’ll get easier. It usually always does.

Lincoln had split off with another agent, leaving you and Charlie to take readings and monitor the damage being done. So far everything seemed relatively stable and that there is nothing to report. Your hand wanders up to your ear cuff to get in touch with Lincoln and see if his area is clear as well, Charlie rambling to your right about everything from the Dodgers to the weather, and all of the sudden everything goes sideways.
