Regina

Most of the crew had made it to the Inn, all enjoying a cool drink and each other's company. Reggie couldn't help but feel the stress, even as she downed her glass of alcohol. Vic was next to her, chuckling quietly at the things he would see.

"You've got an interesting patch of crew members." He observed.

"This is only a few of the crew." She explained. "The rest are just as crazy." She laughed. Vic chuckled.

"You'll need crazy. Only crazy would follow you on this damned voyage."

Reggie nodded, her eyes staring blankly at the table. Vic's hand touched her shoulder, giving her a comforting pat. She smiled up at him. Finally, with the downtime, the captain finally felt how tired she was. When was the last time she'd gotten any sleep?

She couldn't remember.

She pulled out her datapad and quickly sent a message to the crew. In the next half hour, I will be returning to the Nightwing. Anyone is welcome to come and stay on the ship for the evening. Anyone else is free to stay on the planet for the evening. The Inn has graciously provided the crew rooms for the evening. We will make one last descent to the planet in the morning to restock supplies and then be back on our way. Thank you.

"Not staying at the Inn then?" Vic asked, he had been reading over her shoulder.

Reggie chuckled. "No. Believe it or not, my bed in my quarters is a lot more comfortable then the beds you have here." She downed the rest of her drink and then stood from her chair. "I'll be back in the morning. Tell Nelly, so she doesn't get angry with me for leaving without saying goodbye."

Vic laughed once again. She bid him a good night and left the Inn. She yawned, finally feeling the full weight of how tired she was. She just had to get back to the Nightwing and then she could sleep. She slapped her cheeks a few times, and finally made it to the land cruiser.

There she spotted Bond, waiting awkwardly for something. "Hey," Reggie said casually. "Everything alright?"
