With her head tilted to the left, her eyes slightly narrowed, Kiama tried to remember what that was. She knew she had heard of it before while she was at the Academy. Maybe even seen it? Eventually she gave up and shook her head. “I’m fairly certain I’ve heard of it before, but for the life of me I can’t remember. I’m sorry,” she apologised.

Shon frowned and shook his head as well, also uncertain of what Kaia was referring to. “As long as it doesn’t require too much physical strain… both for Kiama’s sake and mine.” Shon silently prayed that it was some kind of card game, though the name of the activity implied it might be a bit more involved than that.

“It’s a game I learned about in my Academy days. Two people in a small box, use rackets to hit a ball against a wall and back to one another. Sort of like table tennis but both people are on the same side of the arena. It’s a little bit of exercise but not super strenuous.” Kaia explained. It was one of the few sports where her size hadn’t been too much of a factor, the small size of the room meaning the squash ball couldn’t ever travel too far.

Shon eyed Kaia’s arm with concern. “Are you sure that’s the best game to play with your arm still recovering?” He kicked himself mentally for being a buzzkill. But he was going to be overly cautious for a while, he figured. After all, the last time he had tried to have fun, he had almost gotten incinerated by a lava waterfall pouring from an upside down volcano in the sky.

Faye sat there, her amusement apparent. “Well, maybe not today, but we could always try it another day. I have pretty good hand-eye coordination. So far my punch to target percent is one hundred,” she said with a grin. ‘Hitting a ball? No problem.”

“I have two arms,” Kaia replied with a cheeky grin, raising her prosthetic arm. The fur ‘skin’ on the prosthetic made it so that, unless one knew what to look for, it was difficult to spot the fact that the arm was ‘fake.’ “But yeah, tomorrow works too. Even if not everyone plays, it’s still a great opportunity for low-stress socialization.”

“It does sound like fun and another day, you can definitely count me in. But …” Kiama sighed softly and looked a little disgruntled. “I did hurt myself rather badly yesterday and am not even allowed to return to duty today. If I were to play squash I’d probably get into a lot of trouble with the whole medical staff.” She shot a glance at Shon and smiled at him. “Maybe we can do something that doesn’t involve exercises? Or the holodeck for that matter? I think we had enough of that for a while.”
