The moment Siadra had left the conference room and had made sure she was alone in the corridor, she addressed the computer, =/\= Computer, please locate Commander Calloway. =/\= Of course she could have just called her and asked where she was. But she had a feeling that she might not get an answer to that question. And while she was generally all for giving people the space they needed, she was under the impression that Shara needed someone to talk to. Someone who might understand, even if only slightly, how she was feeling. Even if she didn’t want to.

“Commander Calloway is in her quarters.”

~Helpful Computer

Siadra nodded to herself and started to make her way straight towards Shara’s quarters only to change her mind after a few metres. Instead she headed to her own quarters first and grabbed a bottle filled with an amber coloured liquid from one of the cabinets in her living room. With the bottle in hand she then continued onto her way to the CIO’s quarters. Thanks to size of the ship it didn’t take her very long till she arrived at her destination. Holding the bottle at chest height in front of her, she took a deep breath and then pressed the chime with her right hand.

Shara sighed inwardly as the chime sounded. Lying on the bed in her small quarters, a bag sat open at the foot of the bed and the lights were half-bright. Arms braced under her head, she gaze up at the ceiling. She was angry enough to walk and it wasn’t just Micah. It was the whole damn thing. And yet he knew and she knew that the moment the mission was laid out, despite any and all of objections, her sense of duty would compel her to participate.

She hated herself for it.

For a moment after the chime sounded, Shara debated ignoring whomever it was, but on a ship this small that wasn’t going to fly. “Come,” she said quietly, the bitterness in her voice evident even to her own ears.

Commander Calloway, CIO
