Burning It Off [Open]
She's mad. She hasn't stopped being mad for the last few days.
She was mad when the zombies hit, mad when she found out what happened to Paco, madder and madder and madder for B5 and Jaime and Querl and no matter who she's talked to or what she's done she's frothing and nauseous with how USELESS she feels to change any of it.
She's barely slept, can't stop thinking, can't stop herself from lurching her way through little crying jags every time a bad thought or memory seeps in. Her oldest scars ache like they're new again... Her new bed in the crew quarters is so comfortable but she ends up back in her podsleeper some nights just for the close warm security of feeling shut away in a bubble for a while. She still can't quite drop off to sleep but it's better than feeling so exposed.
Brenda's had about enough of not sleeping though, she just wants to REST, and working herself down to exhaustion seems like a way to get there. So she's been camped out in one of the sensoriums, plowing her way through beating up opponent after spectral opponent, working already aching muscles into a mass of cramps and pain. Another hour or so of this, a hot bath, and with any luck she would be too tired to stand much less resist a comfortable bed.
[ooc: Will you mentioned wanting Leon to thread with Brenda some time? Feel free to hit this one. Sair, the Luthor thread I asked you about yesterday exploded in a whole other direction so maybe DSP can hit this one? He and Brenda should talk. ANYONE ELSE PLZ FEEL FREE TOO! ♥]

Oh, dang, the sandwich is gone. Well, it was awesome while it lasted.

"When I'm not worrying I've been dropping off for five mintues and getting woken up by nightmares. I just want to be so exhausted that I fall asleep and wouldn't wake up for anything less than a bomb going off next to me."

He accepts the glass. "And thanks." Nice of you, Brenda, that milk helps with the peanut butter on the roof of his mouth!
He's been having zombie nightmares too. He just rolls over and tries again. Sleep is too sacred to Grif to give up on.

It wasn't that EASY.

"I think it's some kind of reverse psychology thing, it seems like the people I don't care about do better than the people I do."
Well, right now, aside from the "possibly being dead" thing it seems like everyone from his world's better off. Grif would be perfectly happy to be asleep in a pod, kthx Stacy.

"Ah jeez, I don't know if reverse psychology actually works on the universe but I'll sure as hell try."

Grif seems pleased with himself though. He likes to have all his bases covered as far as crazy theories about how the world works go.
"Alright, you eat something and get some sleep, okay?"
Watch him be responsible. Watch.
