"Well, and that concludes our session for today. It's already 5:30 PM, which means it's time to wrap things up, everyone. Have a good evening and I'll see you all tomorrow!" Daniel's smile accompanied his words as he glanced at his wristwatch, confirming the end of the workday.
As Daniel's announcement hung in the air, the group of head researchers gradually rose from their seats, engrossed in conversations that flowed like a river. Ideas about project strategies and new endeavors filled the room, spurred on by the prospect of working under the guidance of their new research department director.
Some of them directed their attention towards Sloth, engaging her in discussions. She nodded along, albeit slightly delayed, her valiant efforts to fight off drowsiness evident in her interactions. Aware of Sloth's unique situation, the head researchers responded with understanding nods and gentle smiles, allowing her a more leisurely pace in their exchanges.
