Diversions [NVC, sometime day 20-25] [Open]

May 24, 2010 16:16

Outside the building housing the guest quarters there was a small courtyard of sorts, closed in partially by the low wall that ran along the beach. Paula had taken her breakfast there several mornings, content to gaze out over the water as she ate, enjoying the relatively cool breeze before the sun was quite up ( Read more... )

Guinan eyed her curiously. "Some people have been enjoying their stay more than others." It would be impolite to say more. But everyone knew what had happened to the populace.

"It's lovely," she agreed, looking around again. "I'll be honest, though, I feel as if my time here is almost done. You ever get that feeling, that it's time to move on?"

For a species of listeners, Guinan was feeling particularly chatty today.

"You could say that," Paula agreed with a wry grin. She'd read an update on the soda investigation that morning, curious to know whether anything conclusive had been found.

"I have." She looked at Guinan curiously. "You're leaving soon?"

"I think so," she said, looking up at the sky. "Not sure where yet, but it feels right, you know?"

"And the trial should be ending soon, all these interesting people will be leaving. Maybe I'll catch a ride somewhere."

Paula nodded. She knew that feeling well.

The idea of just picking up and moving on whenever the urge struck was intriguing. "What is it that you do?"

"Right now? I've been tending bar, helping out where I can." Stretching out, she reached into her robe and pulled out a bottle of water for herself. "It's fun, and I get to meet lots of interesting people. But I think I need to find a new space."

She nodded at Paula. "What about you? What do you do?"

"I'll bet you do meet all kinds," she chuckled. "I can understand that, though, wanting a new space. It's why I'm here."

"I'm a biologist," Paula replied, pausing to take a sip of her own water.

"You study life," Guinan noted with a smile. Slipping on a pair of sunglasses, she turned back to the water. "Sounds a lot like bartending."

Like bartending... "I never thought of it that way," Paula replied with a surprised grin. She leaned back in her chair, mulling over this new idea.
