( bundled up against the chill (it wasn't cold, precisely, but Collette felt cooler than usual), the teen finds herself by the monitors showing stars and a few shots of the Earth, looking away from them and out the lonely window. She wonders how reinforced it is, to exist here, but it's nice.
Probably the least claustrophobic part of this base.
Her fingers fidget with the blanket over her legs and in her lap, plucking at it, letting it fall back down, then smoothing it out. She's stuck with what Break had said a while ago, not saying anything for or against Jack. It just came up as something she typed without thinking: Don't Involve Jack. She could still explain it as tension between Xerxes and Jack, but that wouldn't precisely be fair.
She just wonders what to trust Ahiru with without overburdening her with the kinds of secrets Collette has learned to bear. )
