Anywhere but here – A monologue from "Sabotage"

We've been stuck, adrift between galaxies for 3 weeks now. This is torture.

I wish I was… oh, maybe playing chess with Rush. He'd kick my ass, of course, but I would slow him down enough to annoy him, and that would be really fun. He's the math guy, but I know a thing or two about strategy…

Or I could help Brody with his little project – yeah, I know he says it's an autotranswhatchamacallit, but I know a still when I see one.

Or better yet – I could be visiting with TJ in the infirmary, when nobody's looking. I know she's bored, too. I could just go right now and ask to help with cleaning or something. And she would flash me one of those smiles, and say "Sure!" and give me something to sort or inventory. And maybe we'd laugh together, like in the old days, when she would slip her arms around me and sit in my lap and kiss me, those soft lips against mine, smiling even then. I'd sneak my hands under her tank top and feel her soft, warm skin, and then she would move her hands down, down… And I would let her do whatever she wanted, because just being close to her makes me feel like I'm on top of the world.

Yeah, I wish.

Or I could continue to sit here and stare at the same old view and do nothing.
