Strolling across the corridor of one of the crew quarters deck, Heidy stretched as she followed the curve of the deck, weary but satisfied with on other day and another shift done, and without incident. She reached the door and hand halfway to the keypad when the door opened. Standing in the doorway was her roommate, a deltan/bajoran by the name of , looking a little flustered and in a hurry, with reason she was ten minutes past her watch start time and only just leaving. Heidy smiled and sidestepped quickly allowing her out first.
"Thanks" she stated breathlessly as she passed and then a few paces along called back. "There's a half pot of breakfast fruit on the table, which I'm not going to finish."
"Have a good one."Heidy called in responce with a smile, although she never quite fathomed the healthy breakfast types, being a sweet pastry with dairy or meat girl herself.
Entering the shared living area, she strolled past the table picking up the small pot as she passed, if she'd paused and looked it might have stick her how small and abandoned it seemed. However Heidy was tired and making for the couch, keen to take the weight off her feet, picking though the contents of the small pot and selecting what she assumed was a blueberry, sampling it, the woman pulled a face at the over welding tart flavor and decided it was no longer for her, gulping it down she placed the pot on the floor up against the couch and then flopped onto it, stretching out fully and sliding down so her feet were over one arm while her head rested on a side cushion. Finding a relaxed position and flicking at her feet at the boot heals until they dropped over the end in turn. "Computer music, chill funk compolation 2333."
A few moments later synthetic sounds began to fill the room, alternating between minor and flat keys, in a rythmic and soothing pattern. As she lay there Heidy reflected on the shift and the day, she'd been on the patrol/relief assignment this time around which offered a little more variety, as the title suggested she moved around the ship allowing various posts to have an hour or so to eat and change posts, it also allowed her to gradually meet the different persons in the department, which being a social person as she was apealed to her nature. Although it didn't allow as much time to work on her other interests as the more static positionings, it had provided flashes of inspiration which she hoped to put to use this evening.
"Computer access replicator timing function, link to sonic shower operation, set meal preparation. Rigelian stew, Side of Earth chips thick - cut. Replicate on shower deactivation." Heidy said finally and a little sleepily, although she loathed to move at this point, she was also ravenously hungry and a quick dash in the shower always freshened her up. Half- Rolling off the couch she pushed herself upright and padded heavily towards her sleeping area and the facilities it contained, removing her outer jacket as she did and throwing it in the direction of the table, not looking to see if it landed as she intended, she'd deal with later if not.
