Eli stepped into his quarters after getting vash setlled he had hardly slept in two days. The long hours at the table had certianly taken it’s toll on his body, he was stiff and slow and needed to losen his muscles up. A shower might do him some good, he kicked on a little music, something soft and relaxing.Moving to the sonic shower he removed his cloths and stepped in, how he missed water there was something soothing about having warm water rushing over the skin. He closed his eyes leaning agains the wall. He thought of Vash and how she could have been killed, the scenario playing out in his mind, maybe he had payed the woman to much attention. ‘I should have been there’ he thought ’ I should have been faster’. He new that she could take care of her self and it was that thought that almost got her killed. Continuing to beat himself up his thoughts quickly driffed to his sister now, images of the cardasian’s beating her and tearing her up with their wands of pain. Then they took her away, when he had heard news that she died it crippled him. “I can’t” he wispered to himself.
Maybe it was the lack of sleep or the preasure of the last two days or the thoughts of his sister, or some combination there of, but Eli’s body shuttered, his large body colapsing to the floor, tears and sobs echoing in the sonic chamber. He sat up pulling his knees up to his chest and sat crying something he almost never did. Snot and tear mixed as he lost control of his emotions. His mind was filled with pain and loss, a sense of lonleyness washing over him that he had not experienced since he left the Maquie.
As the timer on the sonic shower expired he layed there in a pool of tears quietly sobing.

MedicThere was a hard knock at the door shortly after the sonic shower turned off. “Eli open this door or I swear I’ll open it for you,” Noril’s voice came through the door.

Eli was lost in his own pain, and not hearing the nocks and shouts, his mind tormented by a pain that was always just in the background. He continued to sob as the memories flowed in. Cardasian punishment his family all of it surfacing at once.

MedicNoril had similar technological capabilities as his brother, if not better, and had an easy time forcing the lock with the ship’s own software. He remained outside the bathroom and knocked on the door frame. “Eli, I know you’re in there.”

The knock on the outer door to the restroom broke through the reverie of fear and pain. Looking around he realized where he was and what was going on.”second” he musted to say standing to his feet. He put back on his pants and opened the door.
Eli’s massive frame drown the light from the shower casting a shadow over Noril. Eli moved past, that’s when Noril saw something he hand never actually seen. Eli’s back was covered in healed lash marks. The over laped so many times they could not be counted and formed a rather deformed set of rough skin. The tribal tattoo that had been on his back extending to his arm and face was now a mash of scares and displaced black ink.
“What can I help you with Cap” was all he could muster still choking back his tears.

Noril was only 5‘3’‘. Towering over him, Eli was like a behemoth. And yet, Noril showed no fear, not even with the man in this emotional state. He was calm, compassionate. “I can sense your emotions, Eli. So strongly I could drown in them myself.” He sat in a chair in the room. “And I’m not in the habit of letting my crew drown in their own pain.”
