Re: Destiny- Engine Room 1
Charlie entered the room, sighing as she leaned against the wall, pulling off her boots and throwing them across the room. Supported by the wall, she puts her hands on either side of her head, groaning as she massages her temples. Who knows what this was...something wicked just washing over, causing distress in her. Something she didn't need.
Charlie gets her balance again, standing up and stretching, making the slow walk across the room to the hammock. Her joints have started to ache, something she can only imagine is from running about the past few days and not having much else to do. She sat on the edge, slowly swinging, rubbing her forehead again. It was a low ebb, like a pulse beacon somewhere, coming in slow flashes through the edges of her vision and the lower frequencies of her hearing. Like being in front of a spotlight, the spots beginning to dance.
I'm tired, Charlie thought. This'll all seem better after a few hours of sleep. She coughed hard, covering her mouth, her head swimming even further into the pain as she did so. It only takes a moment to shake it out, running the back of her arm over her mouth and wiping her hands on the thighs of her jeans. She rolls back into the hammock, oblivious to the smears of blood she's just put across her cheek and her pants, not to mention her hands...
