Finally, finally, they were released from sickbay. Bethany’s 3 times a day walks had been reduced to one very late or very early while the corridors were empty. She would be going stir crazy if she wasn’t so focused on Aasrel. The new meds made her feel better and she wanted to go do stuff. She had finally accepted the risk of being on duty too much, but she hated being confined. The ship was small and that couldn’t be changed.

When Jonan finally left Bethany let out a heavy sigh and flopped into a chair for just a moment.
