Trooper Station; Monday [07/09].

[died8yearsago]

If anyone was looking for Rosa that morning, they'd find her at her desk, eyes narrowed at her computer screen as she furiously typed away at her proposal to Kincaid that any member of the FIPD be allowed to shoot gremlins on sight, no questions asked. It wasn't easy going; it was usually the sort of thing she'd foist on Santiago, and she thought about doing so right now, but then she'd have to explain to Santiago about gremlins and...yeah, no. Screw that.

At least it was cathartic. Her rage and annoyance had simmered down into her usual irritation with everything in the world by the time the afternoon came around and she hit send on the email. An improvement in her mood she suspected would be dampened once again as she settled in for her radio reports.

Which went surprisingly fine, until she got to Saturday, where it seemed that the endless stream of loud beeping shorted out her earbuds until they made a sharp, high pitched ringing in her ear.

"Dammit!" Rosa yanked the earbuds out of her ears, causing them to tangle in her hair, which didn't help matters when she then tried to throw them across the room. "Stupid cheap piece of crap!"

And instantly winced in pain, not sure whether it was the cord pulling her hair or the ringing that persisted in her ear, and that wasn't good, and the next time she saw that stupid whining tea-lover who couldn't keep her personal shit off the radio, she was going to punch her right in her stupid face.

Atlas Health and Fitness Center: Monday

[spectre_alenko]

Kaidan had woken up in a mood. He wasn't even sure, exactly, what mood it was, other than defining it nebulously as 'not good'. He spent an hour running up and down the steepest stairs he could find on the island, and when that hadn't completely burned off the feeling, he headed to the gym.

The weight room was empty when he got there. He changed out in the locker room and went to practice some really bad gym etiquette. Setting the weights to 'omg why do you hate yourself', he slid into the hack squat machine and began shouldering lifts. He let the plates crash down behind him aggressively. The noise echoed in the empty room and provided a soundtrack to the trainwreck going on inside his head. Something Kanan had said had gotten under his skin. He had no idea what to do, to change the behavior, but he more or less agreed it needed to change before he hurt someone.

Rep after rep, the weight plates crashed as he let his brain do its thing.

The Perk, Monday Afternoon

[firstofitskind]

So apparently, tea was a bit of a... contested topic, around Fandom these days, according to radio. Enough so that the baristas on duty exchanged a Significant Look when Liam ordered a cup today. But he did manage to get his beverage of choice without any actual trouble. Probably because he asked nicely and all.

Tea and muffin acquired, he found a table by the window and had his Global open, scrolling through an email regarding the various and handwavey uses of rowan ash.

[ooc: so open, so, so open.]

Devil's Nest, Monday Night

[arboreal_priestess]

Things seemed to be heating up in the tea fandom this week and that was a fight Verity really couldn't have cared less about if she tried. And so, to make her loyalties known (or at least to declare her neutrality in whatever they were fighting about), Verity bullied Tiny into making a sign.

Honestly, after spending the weekend either frantically searching for a Covenant asshole or just as frantically practicing for the Maryland State Argentinian Tango Open, hearing about a fight with such low stakes was actually kind of refreshing.
