[Video]
[The video feed flickers on to the sight of a young boy seemingly passed out as his desk. Don't worry guys, he's still alive. As proof of this, he raises his head and blearily stares down at the data pad he has in front of him. A hand reaches out and roughly brushes the coffee mug and drags it closer to him. He makes the mistake of drinking some before making a face and spitting it back into the mug. Yuck, cold stale coffee is nasty.
Cody doesn't look too good. Actually, he looks like a kid who has been up for three days straight with nothing to sustain him but coffee and granola bars. Why would he do this and what could possibly be so important that he'd do this to himself? Well, part of it is because Prowl is a very curt and demanding boss. The other part is because Cody actually wants to impress him a little. Four days of constant and dedicated paperwork would do it right?
Ugh, he feels terrible. But luckily for him he's almost done.]
Just a little more.
[He mutters to himself before tiredly getting back to work.
About twenty seconds later his head droops again and hits the desk with a thud. No, no naps yet. C'mon Cody, keep going...]

...Is that coffee?

Paperwork actually. Lots of it. I'm almost done though.
[Yes it is coffee. Cody picks up his mug and looks into it forlornly. Boy he sure wishes he had some right now.]
[Video] Whoops forgot this
[Sari makes a face, twitching at the reminder of her dad. NOPE don't want to think about him.]
[Video]
My dad only ever does this when he has a deadline he needs to meet.
[He smiles sadly to himself at the thought of his father.]
I've been up for a while now.

[Right. Ouch. She sighs and props her chin up with a palm, ready to change the subject.]
Soooo, how long is 'a while'? I mean, bedtimes are lame and even more pointless here, but still. You look like even coffee couldn't help much.

Three days?
[It's not that long for a kid. Right?]
[Video]
Three days?
[WRONG.]
