“Quitting my job outright is insane, right?” Sam asked quietly from her position curled up on her most comfortable, albeit slightly shabby, armchair-- glancing up at Nazli as if the woman would have every answer she could possibly need. The archaeologist sighed, taking a slow sip of the tea in one hand and scratching behind Kenyon’s ears affectionately-- the large cat purring contentedly from his place on her lap. “I’ve been planning this project for almost a year and we’re so close to getting the funding and I’m just... tired. I don’t wanna be locked in an office for the rest of my life-- researchin’ things I never get to find myself.” It was something she’d been wrestling with since Kat had mentioned what she was doing, work wise-- and it had inspired a somber streak in the Australian that was generally unfamiliar given how exuberant she tended to be. “It’s not like I’m hurting for the money, either-- Mum would help if I asked and Allah knows she has more money than she knows what to do with,” She sighed, her head lolling to one side as she looked at Nazli with a pleading expression. “Someone take my adult card away-- I don’t want it anymore, Naz.”
