Virginia waited until Morreti came out of her apartment and locked the door behind him. She took a long drag from her cigarette and blew out another puff of smoke as she calmed her prematurely frayed nerves. She simply needed to keep tabs on the people who came into her personal space and take note of them.
The freshly brought coffee was a small consolation and she could definitely use it. The butter pancakes looked tempting too, but she wasn't hungry in the morning so she stored them in the fridge until she could reheat them later for lunch.
After her traditional breakfast of a cup of coffee and a cigarette, and before she decided to do the next part of her daily agenda, she finally took a shower, washed her still blood-smelling hair, and changed into a clean uniform that didn't look like anyone had slept in it for two days. T-shirt, pants, and turtleneck, that was her favorite style, and all still in the Hellfire Legion colors.
She then sat down at her laptop and continued her paperwork where she had dropped off the previous evening. She quickly finished leave slips and filed them into the database, made notes of the reported disciplinary infractions and sent them to the responsible senior officers, and finally resolved to look over the Chief Engineer's report on the repairs, replacements and modifications needed on Roanoke.
The entire document was hundreds of pages and diagrams, with exhaustive justifications of what needed to be done and why, and she had completely lost track of time.
