OOC: I didn’t have many ideas, so I thought I would set up a sim that may be multiplaced, and multipersoned if anyone would like for it to be. For anyone to jump in if they want to.

Maria found herself with a rare day off. She found that she didn’t know what to do with the time off so she decided to go to a random deck, and a random part of the ship, having herself a mini pseudo-adventure. While on the turbolift, she gave the elevator a number of randomized inputs. She kept the turbolift busy for a few minutes. After she was certain she didn’t know what deck she was on anymore she told the turbolift to stop. She stepped off of the lift and looked around. She looked contemplative for just a few moments before she began to walk down the corridor. She waved as she passed personnel as she walked about.

Her mind was distracted and it was like she couldn’t keep a thought in her mind for very long. It was frustrating! But she at least had been able to keep herself composed around crew members as she moved through the ship. On the turbolift again, it was moving and her mind drifted back to the dream. Nightmare, more like it. She understood it from a psychological perspective and it was a completely normal reaction to trauma. But she shuddered at the memory of it and felt her heart race.

The door opened and an ensign in blue was there. “Good morning, Captain,” she said, stepping in.

Dira forced a smile as she stepped out. “Good morning, Kari,” she said to the Xenosociologist. As much as she enjoyed talking to the young woman, she wasn’t in the frame of mind for it. “Have a good day,” she said, moving down the corridor.

She was out of it and it wasn’t until she had gotten a few meters down the corridor that she realized she was on the wrong deck. Very much the wrong deck. She spun around and moved quickly the other way, only to bump into someone. Damn the headband! She usually knew when someone was that close. Dira stumbled back. “Oh, I so sorry!” she said, her jet eyes wide. The thin silver headband fell off and she caught it in her hand.
