Every muscle in her body ached as she sank onto the bench in front of her locker. She took a moment to stretch a kink out of her neck before bending down to remove her dirty boots. She could hardly wait to strip off the filthy uniform and spend far too long underneath the hot shower. It had only been a few weeks since her assignment to SG-14 and already she marveled at those who had managed to keep this pace for years. She supposed she would adapt to it-- in time.
However, the sound of footsteps quickly dashed her hope for a few quiet moments to herself -- but when she saw who it was, a genuine, if tired, smile spread across her lips.
“ Major Carter -- I’m sorry, I didn’t see you. ” She glanced at her open locker, a sheepish expression flashing across her face at the mess of crumpled clothes and discarded gear. “ I’m still trying to find my bearings in all this... One day, you will have to tell me how you manage... ” she added with a teasing smile.
