Having spent a good chunk of her evening at the party, it would've been more like Christine to go back to her own quarters, take off her silly costume, and go to sleep. Feeling as though she had unresolved business wasn't going to let her do that, though, so instead she found herself tracing the familiar route to Cassie's quarters. The last few visits had been sly nursing. This one was a social call that she honestly didn't foresee having any control over the outcome of. It was just one of those nights.
A chime, a bright smile, and a greeting later, Christine was facing Cassie. Though the engineer was still clad in a "bloody" t-shirt, the nurse felt absurd in her wings and halo. Reaching up to take of at least the offending headband, she gave Cassie a smile that was somewhere around nervous.
"Hey," she said warmly, "You sure this isn't a bad time?"
"Resident sex god, oh gosh." Christine laughed a little as she entered the room. "That is my boss you're talking about, you know."
At Cassie's offer, Christine couldn't help but give the other woman a look. Was it really that easy to see how much of a pain the wings had been to pin on? And were inevitably going to be to take off? "That would be great, actually."

Then she looked at Christine and said, "Come on in. Would you like a hand to take those wings off?"

Then as Christine asked for her help to Cassie said, " Come on then."
She fumbled around with the pins and eventually, after a few choice swear words, the wings were on the floor.
Cassie said, "Can I get a drink for you? Something from the replicator or I have something a little stronger."
