💮 – { Satya leans her head against the cool glass of the window. The pristine clarity of it is soon ruined by the smear of her skin pressed against it. She sighs, straightening her posture as the fog of her breath spreads over the paned glass. The summer nights here in Dorado remind her of Hyderabad, the sweltering, sticky heat that clings to her form and weighs down upon her shoulders like bisque or porridge.
It’s hot. She doesn’t really want to be here. She’d much prefer it if she were back at home, sitting on her lovely couch with a cool drink that has a crisp tang to it. She can almost imagine that she can hear the clink of ice cubes. Deciding to busy herself, Satya brings up the details of the exchange up on her holovid once more, the finely printed words on cold hues easing the predatory clutch the heat has on her.
From the corner of her eye she can see her assigned partner- but she takes note of the incessant jangling of his spurs first. “Do you mind stilling yourself for one moment?” She asks, bringing the screen downwards and drawing a glare towards him. “I understand that this isn’t the most exciting mission, but surely we’ll be finished in no time if everything goes according to plan.” }
