Life aboard ship rapidly returned to normal and most people, save the Captain and senior officers (and the scant handful of guards trusted by the master at arms) noticed any difference after they caught up with their consorts and resumed the slow crawl to Conrad. Sam hadn't heard from her in those two days and, he found out, she'd barely asked the crew for anything, not even food.<br/>His customary morning watch on the bridge finished, he went down to the XO's quarters that had been taken over by the new arrival. The guard at the door shrugged as he approached. "She hasn't come out, or asked for anything since she went in there, sir," he said.<br/><br/>Harkness sighed to himself and gestured for the guard to step aside. He hit the door chime and activated the intercom. "Miss Fae," Harness said, "It's Captain Harkness, is everything all right in there?" he asked.<br/><br/>He diligently waited half a minute, then chimed again.<br/>Nothing.<br/>He cast a glance at the sentry, "go get some coffee," he said nonchalantly.<br/>The guard, an kid, really, snapped his heels together and gleefully left the area.<br/>Once he was alone, Harkness entered an override on the access panel and the door slid open.<br/>"Miss Fae?" he asked, almost meekly, then he saw her asleep amidst a sea of electronics. He stepped inside and let the hatch close behind him. Then he cleared his throat.<br/>"Miss Fae," he repeated.
