β€· β§ @trekmade said, β you were going to leave without saying goodbye? β from hemmer.
her smile turns slightly sheepish, and she hugs the padd in her hands tightly against her chest. β I wasn't... I hadn't decided yet. about leaving, I mean. I didn't want... β she hadn't wanted input on the decision, but nyota's not certain she can phrase that in a way that will come across as polite. β I didn't want to trouble anyone until I knew for certain. but I wouldn't have left without saying goodbye, I promise. β
and in many ways, that had been the deciding factor.
β I've decided I'm staying. β she had only put in the request thirty minutes previously, as she stood with her own bags packed.
she gestures then at the transporter room behind her, her suspicious proximity quite easily explainable. β I was just seeing chia off. she had more bags than she had arms, so... β and she had needed to say that goodbye, even if she had avoided the rest.
