The trip to Persephone is uneventful.   We’re all too messed up to do much more than nurse our wounds and rest up.  Some work cannot be avoided, however: chair time on the bridge; monitoring the comm chatter; cooking our meals, and definitely everyone launders what they’d been wearing the night of the shoot-out.  Beyond that, we generally make do with the minimum of fuss and flying and simply heal.

That’s not to say we’re not occupied.  We are all working through the ramifications of what’s happened.  Arden monitors everyone’s health.  Rina helps doing what she can, in addition to maintaining the ship.  Nika is uncharacteristically quiet.  Mike is likewise preoccupied with the progress of his cure.  As soon as he’s able he starts testing his ability to exert his will against verbal commands.  The drug Valerie made is working—but it’s not instantaneous.  His free will returns by slow degrees.  By the time we kiss dirt on Persephone, it’s not entirely restored but enough has been regained that we can all ease off on watchdogging him.  Much to everyone’s relief, not the least of all, his.

So it’s with some sense of anticipation we land on Persephone.  It’s a chance to make a new start, to move forward and put some of the rough and tumble behind us.

Of course, we should have learned by now that nothing is ever that simple.

(---More to follow.  Stay tuned!---)
