Mission: Shades of Gray
Location: Ghassan's Quarters and Typhon
Timeline: After arrival at Typhon

On

Noelle had slept for several hours and after waking up, she headed for the small kitchen area to begin some maqbous while she showered. After the dish began simmering in the small crockpot that she had with her, she headed for the shower. She knew that she had bumps and bruises from the last mission, but hadn't taken the time to get them checked out. There were other more pressing things that had to be dealt with. Besides, she didn't feel any pain so what did it matter.

After her shower, she dressed in a pair of silk pants and loose fitting shirt and sat down on the mats to eat some lunch. Real food always tasted so much better after field rations and this was no exception. While they were at Typhon, she would need to get some supplies. Today was the best time to do that shopping. Finishing up her meal, she put the dishes in the recycler and set the crockpot to warm and headed for the base and some shopping and she supposed a trip to the medical bay would also be a good idea to get the brightly colored bruises and injuries looked at.

Slipping on her sandals, Noelle headed for the shopping district of Typhon to get the things she wanted and needed. It was a relaxing trip, while not one to do a lot of shopping, Noelle did find things that she wanted and needed without realizing that she had used the things that she had. Several shops later, Noelle had the things that were on her list and she was headed back to the Calypso feeling very tired even though she had done very little. She definitely needed to stop by the medical department and get looked at if she was this tired.

Putting her purchases away, Noelle sat down on the sofa and fell back asleep for another several hours.
