Ellie had known from the very start that she’d be a medic. It was the only position they had been willing to give her, and even that had been begrudgingly, but she knew that wasn’t the case for the other medics. They hadn’t signed up knowing that they’d be responsible for the lives of others. Honestly, the women felt a little bit bad for those men but it did put them all in the same boat and considering that she was the odd one out in every situation she entered she was at least happy to belong to a group that could at least admire that she did have the skills necessary for the job even if she was a woman.
The brunette plopped down on her bunk that was situated next to Eugene’s. Despite every day being an exhausting day it seemed that everybody liked to shoot the shit for at least a little bit before they all turned in for the night. Ellie always tried her best to join a conversation but that was easier said than done. “ I come bearing cards,” she said offering the other medic a smile as she fished the desk from the breast pocket of her shirt. “ Figured solitary with a partner might be better than playing alone for the second night in a row,” she offered. She knew it was better to try to ease her way into friendships or even just camaraderie than trying to force it upon anyone. Pushing too hard sometimes just resulted in backlash and that was the last thing she needed.
