Her curls bounced slightly with the nod she gave.  “Of course!  Just give me a little while to check in on the lab and Boom.  It wouldn’t hurt to make sure everything really is fine as you say, right?”

Doggie kept his muzzle shut and and tried to stifle his laughter. He quickly caught up to her and was no longer able to hold back his laughter, “Kat! Kat I’m joking. There was no fire, everything is fine, Sirians honor.”

Kat stopped in her tracks when Doggie caught up with her, eyes wide and jaw agape when he laughed and revealed he’d been joking.  “...I’m not sure whether to be upset that you’d mess with me like that or thrilled because of how much I missed your sense of humor- rarely as it shows.”  Her surprise soon relaxed into another smile.  “...We’ll say the latter for now.”

“Do you really think I was going to let the base burn down?” Doggie asked, teasing. “You have so little faith in me.”

“You know that’s not the case, Doggie.”  She elbowed him lightly, a smile quite evident on her lips.  “It just gets hard to not worry sometimes, especially after last time I was gone when Birdie recruited me to Galaxy Command.  I knew you’d only keep the cadets on a tighter leash without me there to back you up, so I was only concerned about my duties- that they were handled in spite of me not being there is a relief."
