WHO: Mary Crawley and OTA
WHEN: 226404.16, late evening
WHERE: Observation deck
SUMMARY: Mary can't sleep
WARNINGS: Probably none

Her second conversation with Lucifer since sleeping with him had not gone how she had planned. She had hoped at that point that they might be able to make up and move on, but it seemed like that was going to be more difficult than she had expected. Mary was quite used to thinking that she had no feelings, even if she knew that was a lie that she told herself so that she didn't get hurt. And what do you know? She was hurt.

Not hurt over any sort of wanting to be with Lucifer. She didn't. But she still liked him quite a great deal, and it hurt her that sleeping with him had seemingly ruined their friendship. That was the last thing that she wanted. Were they really going to have this hangup now? She felt like such an idiot, like such a woman and that made her mad.

Him telling her to keep her distance had been what had upset her most. She had cried in her room after that before getting ready for bed and trying to sleep. It wasn't happening. After an hour of tossing and turning, she pulled on her kimono robe and left the suite to wander up to the observation deck.

It was one of the most beautiful places on the ship, with colorful swirls of nebula floating past. Mary found it relaxing and she hoped that it could be a place where she could sit and think for a while. She curled up on one of the couches and watched the cloud-like clusters of stars out the huge window. From here, she felt engulfed by it.

If she laid there long enough, she would probably fall asleep and be found by a very confused person at the end of the sleep cycle.

[ooc: feel free to find her still awake or having already fallen asleep.]

That was the worry for a lot of them, and it was certainly a worry of Marian's. The idea that one Chloe Decker would show up here, or that Lucifer would be sent away. Or that Fenris would make an appearance and complicate things further. Even the idea of her being sent back was just a little too much to deal with. Hawke nodded her head in agreement with Mary, though, because she'd gone right to the heart of it.

Those thoughts were dark and impossible and the things that were keeping her awake at night. She shook them off and instead tried to picture punching Lucifer in front of Mary. That made her grin. "Perhaps I can get him in the mess hall some morning. Splash his coffee all over him in the process."

	Mary rested her head against her knees. She didn't worry so much about Matthew showing up, because he was dead. If she really thought about it though, that was always a possibility. She laughed slightly. "Oh that sounds lovely." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"He always hates it when his clothes get all mussed. Coffee makes stains that are hard to get out, he might even have to replicate new." Hawke liked this idea, though she wondered how much trouble that would get her in. "They might put me in the brig for it, but I suppose it would be worth it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"For a punch? Probably not. Besides, it's not as if he can die." Not that Mary wanted him dead, but that bit of information was still annoying. She smiled at Hawke. "Thank you for sitting down and talking to me. I feel better that someone understands so... literally." Since she had slept with Lucifer too, Hawke might be the only one who could truly understand.

It was incredibly annoying to Hawke, too, in some ways. The part where she couldn't even bruise him. There'd be no point in punching the man unless it really did involve splashing something all over him. That would be the only way it would have any impact. But at least she couldn't ever accidentally harm him with her magic.

Hawke returned the smile, and nodded her head. "I think it was just as much for my benefit as yours, honestly. The whole thing has been haunting me and it really is good to get your perspective on it. I may even be able to sleep tonight."

	"Good," Mary said. "I'm glad to hear that. I think I might as well." The fact that he had told her to keep her distance from him still bothered her, but she would make her peace with it eventually. Mary stood up. "Shall we go back to our rooms?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Why don't we just sit here for a while? The view still does have a calming influence and I'm not quite ready to head back, myself." Marian was comfortable where she was at the moment, and the nearby company meant she was more likely to stay that way. Though if Mary decided to head back to a nice soft bed, she could hardly blame her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mary thought about that for a moment and then sat down again. "Alright, if you do not mind having my company," she said. Sleep would probably still be a while coming for her, so she could sit for a little while longer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I don't mind at all," Marian replied, smiling. In some ways, sitting there in the dark together, she was reminded of nights she'd sit up with her sister. It was a welcome feeling, and a steadying influence in general. (Reply to this) (Parent)
