Re: audio
[ Har har. He smirks at Shaw, then adds slightly more seriously: ] No, no problem with heights. Let's head in, then.
[ The walk is longer than it looks, but the entrance they step into is full of elevators and shopping signs and (thankfully) air conditioning. There's also a directory front and center as well, although it's less like a map and more like a station for holographics. Some people stand at it, tilting and zooming their own unique maps with a few hand gestures.
Will walks towards it, but a woman passing by presses a hand to his shoulder and says the words, "Flat. 2439." It's clear and has no emotion attached to it, and the woman immediately continues her way out of the tower. Will just watches her leave, his brow knitted in confusion. ]

Shaw doesn't even bother to ask if he knows what she's talking about: from his expression, it's clear that he hasn't got a clue, and how could he?]
I'm not sure I like her tone.
[Shaw deadpans, but then adds:]
So what do you say? Should we take her up on the random offer that might be a trap?
no subject
Well, I'm not going to be able to focus on shopping now. You think maybe that constitutes for an address in here?

[She turns to head towards the building map, but then stops, looking back over at Will.]
I should tell you up front - there's a chance this is Root having a little fun with us. It's her style.

[ At the warning, he tilts his head and smirks. ]
Hey, if she wants to play host to us unraveling a mystery...who am I to stop her? Might be fun anyway.

[ She pulls out her cell phone (just because she can't connect to any sort of cellular network here or on the Barge doesn't mean it's not useful for other things) and snaps a photo of what she thinks is the most relevant part of the map, then makes for the elevator. ]
You want to take point, with me as backup?
no subject
Sure.
[ They are, unfortunately, not alone on the elevator. These have to take nearly a city's worth of people up and down, after all. There's not a floor 2439, so after some deliberation Will presses the (digital) button for floor 24. As he pulls away to stand nearer to the window, he sees someone using a mirror to flash on the ground outside? Huh. ]
It's not a bad way to explore the place. Guess we'll see where this puts us.
