<div align="center"><strong>-=Dani, looking for Sasha=-</strong></div><br/>Guessing that Sasha would be in her quarters, Dani made the short journey from the galley to the First Officer's bunk.  Being Griff's right hand man meant keeping her close to the action. As such, Sasha's cabin was on the upper deck, sharing a common wall with the lounge, and barely a stone's throw from the cockpit, and the Captain's own quarters.<br/><br/>Sasha was the only member of the crew, save for Griff, who Dani felt reasonably comfortable with. She'd even go so far as to describe her as a friend. Dani knew Sasha looked out for her, and she was grateful for the concern. Although they didn't know it, the commonality of their recent pasts provided a foundation for the two women to build a mutually supportive relationship. Their similar ages, and the fact that Dani had brought Sasha back from the brink of death, helped that bond grow.   Dani had found herself confiding in Sasha more than she ever thought she would. Sasha often tried to get Dani to work out with her, her thinking being that the younger woman needed to try to externalise some of the feelings that she kept such a tight lid on.  So far, Dani had resisted.  To work through those feelings would mean facing them, and she just wasn't ready for that.  In truth, she didn't know that she ever would be.  As far as Dani was concerned, her life began when Griff brought her on board The Gamble to save Sasha's life.<br/><br/>Knocking on the steel door of Sasha's cabin, Dani gave her friend a small smile as she answered, looking gorgeous as always.<em>She could wear a hessian sack and look good</em>, she mused to herself.  Dani knew that the outfit was simply window dressing and that Sasha kept a variety of weapons strapped to various parts of her body whenever they were in atmo. As such she felt as safe in the First Officer's presence as the Captain's on the occasions she had no choice but to go out into the world.  If Dani had her way, she'd just stay on the boat.<br/><br/>"Here's my shopping lists," she said softly as she handed two pieces of tattered paper to Sasha.  "One for the galley and one for the infirmary. There's some medications we need," she continued, "and they're fairly vital.  Especially the Ivoprovalyne.  I know it'll be hard to come by, but please, Sasha...do your best. I'd hate to be caught on the edge of the 'verse without it."  Dani wasn't given to dramatics, so she knew that Sasha would take her seriously. "How long do you think we'll be planetside?"<br/>
