[logicunlocked]

Does that bother you?

GOING TO ASSUME THIS IS BEFORE THE SHUTTLE STUFF since that's being backdated

[suddenlycaptain]

Not really.

[ She isn't sure why it should. ]

Makes sense, how about the 12th?

[logicunlocked]

[ he chuckles ]

Don't know why you brought it up, then. I'm fine with it.

works for me!

[suddenlycaptain]

I'll remember that, you know.

[logicunlocked]

Hey now. I know the value of discipline.

[ Which will seem like an ironic statement considering he'd been preaching the virtues of taking a break to her, but hey. ]

[suddenlycaptain]

[ He's not the only one who has been. Even Riddick has been telling her to take it easy, which she can't quite work out. ]

I'm just saying.

[logicunlocked]

[ He grins, and finally picks up his glass of whiskey and cola, tipping it slightly in her direction. ]

Hard work and hard play. Can't have one without the other. That's my philosophy, anyway.

[suddenlycaptain]

And how's that work out for you?

[ Because she's still stuck on the "play" part. ]

[logicunlocked]

Hey, you don't see me slacking, do you? I get shit done, when it's the time for that.

[suddenlycaptain]

That's good. [ She takes another sip of her vodka, having finished off her plate of food by now. ]

[logicunlocked]

Yeah, 'course it is. What do you like to do, when you're not knocking yourself out working?

[suddenlycaptain]

I'd fly, back home. Here... [ she shrugs slightly ] I guess I don't have much of an answer. Casey's been teaching me some different ways to fight, I'll go get drinks with Haymitch sometimes... that's about it.

[logicunlocked]

I guess there's no joyriding allowed, huh?

Well, now you can add getting drinks with York to your list, [he adds, teasing.]

[suddenlycaptain]

Unfortunately. [ She really would like to fly, but she also knows that if she went out in one, she may not come back. There's not enough fuel to really get anywhere, but sometimes it's tempting. ]

I guess I can.

[logicunlocked]

You ever play cards, or anything like that?

[suddenlycaptain]

I did back home. We'd have downtime between shipments sometimes, that sort of thing, so cards came out a lot.

[logicunlocked]

It couldn't hurt to take some breaks to do that here, too. Maybe someone got some cards in their locker last jump.

[suddenlycaptain]

Maybe. I don't know who would have, though.

[logicunlocked]

Maybe I'll ask around. If we can find a pack they'd be good for breaks, now and then.

[suddenlycaptain]

There could be something in one of the rec rooms, too.

[logicunlocked]

[ It's nice to hear her getting into the idea and he grins. ]

Hey, yeah, I'll check into that, too. 'M sure I'll find something.

[suddenlycaptain]

Well if you do, let me know.

[ She's sort of warming up to this "break" idea. ]

[logicunlocked]

Definitely.

[ He takes another good-sized draft of his drink. ]

So what'd you do where you came from? Seems like a lot of the people who've ended up in leadership positions did something similar at home already.

[suddenlycaptain]

[ Oh. She hates this question. Carolyn takes a drink. ]

I worked for a shipping company, flying a merchant vessel, her cargo, and her passengers to different systems.

[logicunlocked]

Something you enjoyed, I hope.
