Trudy never likes being grounded. She particularly dislikes being grounded on days when the whole damn base is grounded (goddamn Pandoran weather, although she shouldn't bitch too much, as storms on Earth in the 22nd century are all kinds of destructively interesting). Add in the fact that she's had a number of frustrating conversations in the past thirty hours, and the pilot just wanted to get the fuck off base.
Fortunately, Milliways is good for appearing in these situations, so Trudy is in bar, with her boots up on the table, sketching on what looks like a foot-long, rectangular screen.
Ah, the tech of the 22nd century.
(she's also wearing the
Marine uniform, as opposed to her flightsuit, but all her insigna and little pilot's badges are still the same)
