"Probably not the best idea, no," Ginny replied solemnly. Her breath caught, tight in her throat. Everything. Everything she knew was gone. No, she told herself, now is not the time to think about this. Later. Charlie would understand. Or Bill, if he was back from wherever it was he'd gone. Bill. Damn, she missed Bill. Yeah, Charlie would understand, she told herself firmly.
At the tent, she watched Adrian make his own transactions, and, when he stepped out to go to the adjacent tent, she chose a bottle of whiskey and set it in her basket just as Adrian returned. A shot or two would keep the portal nightmare from coming back tonight. And sleeping on Charlie's couch. Just for tonight. Ginny flashed a smile as she looked over to Adrian and she opened her mouth to speak but her datapad beeped.
"Message from Charlie. Oh! He wants me to come out to the Ark," she exclaimed happily. Her expression softened and she quickly tapped a few keys on the datapad and then his beeped. "There, I sent you my address. Or you can find me at the med center. I'm so glad I ran into you. This place feels just a little less... weird now."
