[ Sherlock for the most part has never been asked for advice, not for something that isn't related to work. Even John more often than not, asks Sherlock to spare his opinion so he's a little more than surprised when the call comes in. ]
[ He isn't the sort to enjoy calling, so after her voicemail ends. A minute after, Helen receives a text. ]
Medbay. Now works.
Will be there shortly.

[ She sets the mobile aside, and returns to analyzing some lab reports passively, glancing back and forth between data and samples as she waits. There's a stiffness to her posture, but otherwise, she busies herself in her work. ]
[ Sherlock grabs his scarf and coat and pops down to the medbay. It's not as if he's busy. Not at the moment. There's a knock on the door to the labs. ]
[ She's quick to open the door, before sliding her hands in her lab-coat and stepping back, tracing her steps back to the tabe, if only for the seat. ]
Sherlock, please, come in.
Thank you again for coming. And I appreciate the quick response. [ A beat. ] Tea? [ Well, she's never one to disregard manners, no matter the situation. ]
[ Sherlock takes a moment, now that he's in proper condition to read her. Giving her a one over. Noting everything from the labcoat to the concern and the general tone of her message. ]
Space tends to give me ample amounts of free time.
[ He's also English, and he's never one to disregard tea. ]
