True to her word (to herself, at least), Marlena did not go back to her room and cry. She did not send a message to Jim. What she did was sit down calmly at her desk, pull out a PADD, and type a message.
To Nurse Christine Chapel (this universe) (
rn_chapel),
What are your intentions toward James?
-Lt. Marlena Moreau
It was, all things considered, not the wisest thing she could have done. Few decisions governed by emotion were wise choices. Still, it was done, and she felt a little better after she'd sent it.
