[It’s very late at night in the prison, if anyone is still awake or out and about. Were anyone to pass through Sector 0 they might find an older gentleman in his Starfleet uniform sitting on a bench in the recreation area. He’s quiet and still, somewhat unassuming. He might even be mistaken for peaceful from far away. But were anyone to come closer, they’d find that he has somewhat of a perplexed look on his face, troubled or thoughtful perhaps. And his gaze is turned up to the top of the dome. Obviously he’s not as peaceful as it might initially seem.]

	His story gets a big smile out of her. She looks up to the ceiling as well. "Don't know how you could look at 'em and not want to get closer." The stars she means, of course. So she doesn't blame him for not wanting to keep his feet on the ground. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Her comment does surprise him though, because he couldn't tell if she was speaking because she had those same dreams he'd had as a young boy, or whether she's speaking from experience. "You speak as if you've had the very same dreams, Ms. Tyler. May I assume that to be so." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She shakes her head at his question. "Never dreamed of goin' up in the stars. Never thought I'd do much more then maybe manager at a shoppe 'til I met the Doctor. Wouldn't have mattered. Never coulda dreamed 'bout the things he showed me. I got to see the Universe, the stars, different planets. It was brilliant." She smiles a bit wistfully. "Makes keepin' my feet on the ground hard. Even with him here."

"Oh yes, once space travel is experienced I find it difficult to understand how a person could ever want for planetary life again aside from the occasional visit." After his traumatic assimilation with the Borg, Jean-Luc had returned home to recuperate. Even then he couldn't make himself stay still for long.

He found himself curious though. "I take it this Doctor is a space traveler?"

She nodded a bit. "Yeah, after a sort. We ended up on a lotta space stations anyway. Time traveler too."

Rose has spent all her 'break' trying to find a way to get to the Doctor again. She'd missed him so much that she'd ached with it, but she'd missed the stars, the planets, the aliens and the travel as well. The fact that all of that was going on in the universe and she was stuck in one place frustrated her.
