Daggum blushed again and then looked at the table before looking up at her. “Sorry… I j-… just… I mean I didn’t want to make you uncomfortable. Or feel like.. well… anything other than happy to be here. And I won’t lie and say I haven’t thought about it before, but thats… you know… the future. Not right now.” and he smled and shook his head.

“I’m good with the present,” she said softly. Faye wasn’t sure pondering too much farther than that was a good idea given how easily overwhelmed she was these days. But if there was one thing she knew for sure is that being the present with Daggum was truly something wonderful and she was loathe to think about what happened when he had to go back to his ship. For now she intended to enjoy this week as much as she could.

“Now in a normal first date, this is where the guy orders a stiff drink and the girl says ‘Excuse me.’, goes to the bathroom and climbs out a window to get away form creepy weirdo.” and he took a drink.

Faye chuckled. “Dude, do I look like the kind of woman who crawls out the window?”

“Needs vodka.” and he grinned at her.

Daggum

She grinned. “Makes me wish I had borrowed Alex’s stone. He’s got this rare stone that absorbs alcohol somehow. I was able to taste a really incredible wine and have a couple glasses. No intoxication,” she said making a horizontal slashing motion wit her hand. “It’s a neat trick, if an unfair puzzle to toss my way,” she said, her eyes all but gleaming as she took another generous sip of the cider.

Daggum’s eyes narrowed and he said “Now something like that could come in very handy, indeed. Wonder where he got it? Oh! How’s the mentoring going, by the way? You haven’t said much about it in a while.”

Daggum

Faye nodded slowly. “It’s… going. I’m just about to start a distance class on decision making in high risk situations before I do my Bridge Officer’s Test. Then I’ll probably get tossed into the night shift rotation for the bridge. Ask me how much I’m looking forward to night shifts. Probably going to have to switch up one of my medications or else I will be a wreck,” she said with a smaller grin, though her energy had faded slightly. “Last time I had my schedule mucked with I ended up forgetting my meds and started having withdrawals…” She shuddered slightly and tipped the last of the cider from her glass past her lips.
