Sara often ate in her private dining room rather than her quarters, if only to justify the existence of the space. One evening she hadn’t even eaten, she just sat at the table watching the stars go by. Things kept changing. Her life was complicated by being in command and yet further by the mission profile of her ship. But she couldn’t have… a life. She didn’t know many people who had lives. =/\=Shara, have you had dinner yet?=/\= Maybe her XO knew something she didn’t.

A snort sounded over the comm. =/\=Three guesses and the first two don’t count.=/\= A pause as a couple quiet chirps could be heard. =/\=You proposing something? I should eat something and I told Micah I would done quite late.=/\=

~Shara Calloway, XO

=/\=Deck 6. Don’t keep your boss waiting.=/\= Sara enjoyed how she and Shara talked. It seemed wise to have picked an XO from people she already knew and trusted. She settled into her chair and considered some synthehol.

=/\=I wouldn’t dare. Be then in five.=/\=

Sure enough, five minutes almost on the dot, Calloway stepped into the dining room without any preamble, look a little tired, but overall well. “What have you in mind for dinner? I keep forgetting I don’t ahve to go catch my own dinner here and that I could have anything,” she said, all but flopping into a chair at the table.

“Long day so I was thinking steak sandwich and an ample supply of synthehol. But I could be swayed. Thoughts?” It was all invented on the spot, Sara hadn’t planned ahead and usually didn’t with things like this.

“A steak sandwich sounds good, though it’s one of those days where I wish my daughter Faye was around with my best friend’s hasperat recipe. Not that I’m allowed to cook any thing in it, but I miss really excellent hasperat some days,” Shara said. “But yes to a drink that still allows me to work after.”

Sara requested two identical plates of food and set them down at the table, accompanied by a synthehol job. She sat down and raised her glass. “To drinking on the job.”

“I think you’re the first guest to come to the dining room here. It’s the only place I don’t handle work. There’s work in my quarters, and all over the ship. Not here. This is just for getting some space from that.”
