One Day Off Isn't Enough

Dana came over after lunch, intending to study and meditate in the silence of the balcony. But Hawk had other ideas. He had far too much energy after his change in diet, and he needed to burn some off, so he wanted to play.

By play, he meant practising their skill control together, since his and Karl's were too similar to be entertaining.

So, she studied new ideas and techniques between rounds, while Karl focused on expanding the 'lake' to the size of a pond from a puddle. He worked on that until mid-afternoon, when the urge to go do something crept up on him again.

"We should see if there are other things to do on the day off. They have to have some sort of entertainment that isn't working." Karl suggested.

"There are movie rooms, the games lounge, and a few other facilities that we haven't explored yet. Or we could go to the pool." Dana suggested.
