Does anyone know what it means when someone's name plate disappears off of their door? I've been trying to talk to Angela Montenegro all day, but when I went to visit her....

I'm still pretty new around here, but I've heard of people leaving for unexplained reasons.

[She sounds sad. Really sad. Angela was always nice to her and she knew this was probably going to affect Dr. Brennan. It would certainly affect Sweets too]

Is that...what happened?

[Daisy is quiet for the longest time, as if contemplating her next course of action]

Do you want me to come over?

[Cuddling is implied in that offer]

[and there's a bit of a smile in his voice]

I'd love that.

I'll be right over. With ice cream.

[Ice cream is good to eat when you're sad, it's practically scientifically proven]

[Sweets always appreciates ice cream]

I'll be here.

[Action]

[About fifteen minutes later, Daisy knocks on his door and if it's not locked, she'll spill into his room in a whirlwind of hyperactivity and ice cream. Two different kinds of ice cream. Triple chocolate chip and strawberry cream cheese]

I'm here!

[glances over at her with a smile]

That looks really good.

[She settles in next to him and sets the ice cream aside in favor of wrapping him in a warm hug]

I'm sorry about Angela. I'm going to miss her too.

[wraps his arms around her as well, letting his chin rest against the top of her head]

It's nice having her around.

Do you think Dr. Brennan will be upset? I don't think she'd show it, but losing her best friend like that has to hurt.

I have a feeling that there will be much more to this than she would care to let on.
