xenamorph | Morph #3: The Struggle. [Action/Video]

[As weird as it was staying in Spock's guest bedroom, they were polite enough. Still, she really didn't spend much time there.

At first, she'd spent a lot of time just flying around, but it didn't really ease the tension. Something was missing. She was having trouble sleeping. She had so many nightmares, she lost track of which ones were which, and she'd wake up in the middle of the night, screaming into her pillow.

And then she'd fly again.

It wasn't enough.

Something is missing.]

"So, um. Can anybody show me how to program that... battledome thing? And what else do you people do to entertain yourself around here."

"Uh. So, if anybody could help me out on either end, I'd appreciate it."

[Action]

[Hers was such a charming life.]

Wow, I think I actually would take getting my head smashed into railings over that.

[Something actually inside your brain? Nope.]

-I would too. And... have, a couple times. Not into railings, necessarily, but, y'know, buildings, ships, controllers, the ground...-

Yeah, I know how that feels. Occupational hazard and all. Falling off buildings. That's happened a few times.

[It had even stopped being strange by now.]
