Kyren stumbled down the corridor a little tiredly, due to the difference between ship-time and her body clock.

No, that wasn’t it at all. The difference between the time was minimal, two hours at most. It was the excitement of a first assignment, which had prevented her from sleeping yesterday. She was actually here, finally. No more classes, no more hunting for crazy ingredients for dad, no more riding in cramped quarters she had to share with her siblings. No, she was finally a starfleet officer, on an starship assignment no less.

She stood, staring at the numbers on the door, and then glancing at her PaDD. Yup, this was it. She put her hand to the console, and the door slid open to reveal a small, sterile, standard set of quarters. Kyren stumbled through the threshold of the door, and dropped her handbag to the side of the entrance.

“Computer, access environmental controls in this room, and set ambient temperature to ten degrees centigrade below shipboard standard. I’ll never get any sleep in this heat.”

The computer chirped, and ignored her side commentary. “Environmental control adjustment set to 11 degrees centigrade.”

“Good. Good,” she said, stretching her arms to the side and twisting her back, feeling the temperature already starting to cool slightly. “Wish I could go colder, but I don’t want to have to deal with temperature shock when I go out,” she said to herself. She bent backwards, stretching further, then lay back in her bed with a thump.

“Hey, Computer, wake me before my morning appointments or if any alerts come out to engineering.”
