[Mulan meant for this to be voice but she hit the wrong button by accident, and now is too tired to either notice or care what setting she's on. Possibly both.

She's sitting on the end of her bed, long hair lank and messy, face wan and exhausted. Her voice is weary when she speaks.

I am grow tired of seemingly always making these calls for the same reason.

[She pauses, sighing and catching her breath.]

But here we stand once again in the aftermath of a calamity. At least I hope it is the aftermath. After these last few days, it's hard to imagine it could be getting any worse.

I want to check on my allies. Some of you I know were injured, or put into harm's way. Others I have not heard from at all. Please. Talk to me.

[Kerra squeezes tight before letting go.]

I had my fair share of trouble. A couple of scrapes, but nothing too bad.

[Shaking her head, she looks over her shoulder.]

Kaidan pulled me out of a jam the night the Flop burned. And I involved myself when that mob attacked Belle. I did my best to stay out of it.

She's alright. [Kerra pats Mulan's back before taking a step back.] I promise, I got her to the doctor's just fine...but I'd say you're right. She really is a beacon for trouble.

[Kerra pauses, looking back at their little kitchen for a moment.]

And I'm glad you're safe too. Care to join me for a drink? Might do you some good.

It might. And after the week you look like you've had? You need one.

[Kerra heads off towards the kitchen, getting out a couple of glasses and a bottle of amber liquid. Frowning, she asks the question she's been thinking since she'd seen Mulan.]

What happened to your face?

[Pouring, Kerra holds a full glass out to the other woman, smiling sympathetically.]

You're not your usual radiant self, no. But nothing a good night's coma can't fix, and maybe a massage. At least a good foot-soaking.

Considered taking time off?

[She gets it. And she empathizes. She's been the responsible person on call before, even if she isn't now.]

Well, the massage I can do. You've earned that, officer. [She smiles cheekily, raising her own glass and taking a sip of the bitter liquid.]

Just something I picked up at the Jedi temple. It's a means to clear a distracted mind. And something we can all use from time to time.

[She takes another swallow, leaning against the counter.]

You'll thank me tomorrow.
