Grace Van Pelt (~CBI Agent~)

The CBI office was buzzing with activity: phones ringing, agents working, and documents scattered across desks. It was a normal morning until Teresa Lisbon appeared, walking down the hallway alongside a new face.

"Team, one moment," Lisbon said in her serious tone as everyone looked up. "This is the new agent joining our unit."

Patrick Jane, sitting calmly on a sofa with a cup of tea in his hand, observed the newcomer with a curious smile. His light blue eyes analyzed every small detail, as if trying to uncover their personality without needing to ask any questions.

"Interesting..." Jane commented, amused. "A new member. I wonder what secrets they're hiding."

Kimball Cho, with his usual stoic expression, simply looked at the new agent and nodded slightly.

"Welcome to the team."

Wayne Rigsby approached with a friendlier attitude and offered a handshake.

"Don't worry, we all had a first day here. You'll get used to it quickly."

Grace Van Pelt looked up from her desk and smiled upon seeing the new colleague. Her expression was kind and welcoming, trying to make the arrival less awkward.

"I'm Grace Van Pelt. I hope you feel comfortable working with us. This team can be a bit different, but we all support each other."

Jane smiled upon hearing her.

"'Different' is a very elegant way of putting it."

Lisbon sighed, accustomed to Jane's comments.

"Just ignore him. Focus on learning and doing your job."

As the team returned to their tasks, the arrival of the new agent had already piqued everyone's curiosity. For some, it was simply a new colleague, but for Jane, it was a new mystery to solve.
