A Log – All Work and No Play

 

After Miranda finished helping Kes and Ty with the gel packs she decided to call it a night after all her shift had ended some time ago. After saying good night and reminding the two not to drink and drive she headed off to her quarters. As soon as the cargo bay doors closed behind her she broke out into fits of giggles. Miranda had always been somewhat of an eccentric and in comparison with her family she was considered normal. She enjoyed the young engineering officer for the simple fact that Kes seemed to find Miranda a bit odd. Every time Miranda was around the engineer she seemed to make Kes nervous. “Must be my abrasive personality,” she thought. Under normal circumstances Miranda usually muted the side of her that grew up with sing song Mondays and Shakespeare Saturdays. It made her laugh just to think about her mother making up songs in old english and then it made her laugh even harder thinking about Kes meeting her family. She told herself it was not very nice to tease Kes and make her feel uncomfortable. Miranda made a mental note to try and not overplay it around Kes anymore. She new how hard it was to join a crew that had already formed tight bonds. “I will be nice and I will be good from now on… after Shakespeare Sunday, that is” Miranda thought as a playful grin spread across her face.

Awww, that was a great log Miranda. Don't worry, I'm sure Kes won't be scared of her forever! And besides, now they've got matching necklaces. ;)
