Earth had a wide variety of extra-curricular activities. Ever in tune with his surroundings, Brady once again shot a look to the doors of Three Forward as another officer entered. Brady didn’t know all of the senior officers yet, but clearly this man was one. And whoa, what a man. His cheeks flushed a slight crimson and he turned away. His youth gave him away and he couldn’t exactly hide his feelings or emotions. One didn’t have to be empathic to understand what Brady was thinking.<br/><br/>The nurse was about to answer his new-found engineering friend when she appeared to be called out to work. He shrugged.<br/><br/>“Duty calls I guess.” Brady smiled. “Thanks for introducing me to the stew.”<br/><br/>Brady now sat alone. It was a bit awkward. The nurse glanced over to the lone officer and then down at his bowl. Holding his breath, he grabbed the bowl and his glass of water and walked over to the officer.<br/><br/>“Excuse me sir. Well, I noticed that everyone in here is eating with someone except, well, you and me and, well, maybe I thought you would like some company cause I sure would.” It all pretty much came out in one breath.<br/>
