After finishing dinner and clearing away her empty plate, cutlery and glass, Aeryn now had to figure out what to do with the rest of her evening. As tempting as it was to continue drinking, the redhead was satisfied with the one glass she had already consumed, wanting a clear head and not end up doing something foolish. Then again, she rarely got wasted these days, keeping her drinking to a limit even when she was out with friends in the lounge or ten forward. Shoreleave might be a different kettle of fish, as the saying goes, especially where Gray and Mitchell were concerned, but that was for future Aeryn to deal with.

What she needed was a distraction, to focus her mind elsewhere while also remembering to sort out what she was taking to the Lake District, rather than leave it to the last minute. That's when she decided to get the packing out of the way first, then maybe a holofilm to immerse herself in something that didn't require a lot of thinking.

Plan made, Aeryn went into the bedroom, followed by Whiskers, who clearly wanted to investigate what was going on and to see what mischief he could get up to. Nothing really changed as Aeryn began going through her closets, choosing outfits she didn't wear often on the ship, preferring to set them aside for when leave came. She also didn't want to go overboard, because there was always the option to buy more, and the redhead did like to shop whenever she got the chance.

Choices made, and after shooing Whiskers out of the way when he decided to lie in the small suitcase, Aeryn then packed what she had chosen, glad to get it out of the way.

Signing off her duty PADD after finalising any last minute requests that required her attention prior to leaving the ship, Aeryn was almost ready to depart for the Lake District via a brief stop in Carlisle. The reason for the redhead's slight detour was to catch up with her former chief Steve Wilkins from the Alexandria who just so happened to be on leave at the same time. It had been a while since Aeryn had last seen him, and with it not being far from her final destination, she figured it was worth catching up for a few of hours or so, before heading to Grassmere.

If she was being honest, Aeryn was quite looking forward to seeing Steve, who had stood by the fresh out of the Academy Middie, from the first shift until she eventually left and got reassigned to Artemis. They had clicked instantly over a shared hobby of hiking, with Steve not afraid to knock her down a peg or to when necessary, and Aeryn had learned a lot from the 6ft 2 older and wiser officer who hailed from Cumbria. With Whiskers having already been sent ahead to The Crooked Kettle along with her case and bag, Aeryn could easily imagine her cat being utterly spoiled by her friends and no doubt they would continue to do so when she eventually got there.

Of course there was the prospect that he wouldn't want to come back to the ship with her, but that was something Aeryn would deal with later as she grabbed her denim jacket, and checked over her appearance one last time. Satisfied with her outfit of a light blue tank top and long denim skirt, Aeryn then exited her quarters ready to start her leave, and hopefully have some fun before she was ultimately recalled back to reality.

Grinning slightly at how she wouldn't change a thing about her life, except maybe finding love again in the future, Aeryn headed towards the turbolift, eager to get her leave started properly.
