with piotr, upon his return
There's a lot to talk about.
One thing in particular. Dancing and a kiss and waking and wondering.
But there's a lot to talk about, and Piotr's face is serious enough she hasn't kissed him yet, just silently tilted her head towards the door and moved with him back to Serenity and her bunk, silent and in the mood for business before anything else.
Because that's what has to be done now.
(She's still holding his hand.)
The door closes behind them, and Kate sits on the bunk.
"So what's happened?"
