"Oh!" Rose said as the door slid open to the rear compartment. "There's a whole 'nother room in here." It was small, but surprising. She assumed there were cargo holds underneath, but they would be half-height at best, even for her. She hadn't had a chance to look around on the shuttle they'd stolen from the Supremacy.
Finn gestured to one side, giving a tour. "Two fold-out bunks. Med-kit." He waved to the other side. "Refresher."
She stopped to look at the facilities, bracing herself against the still-tilted wall. It had a tiny shower, a pull-out sink on one side and a pull-out commode on the other. If you had them both out at the same time, the sink was in your lap. She doubted any of it could be used at their current angle – not without adjusting the internal gravity field to override that of the planet. But they would see to the leveling of the ship. "How many people is a shuttle like this equipped to support?"
"I think four crew and eight passengers maximum, but I'm not sure. Normally it's just a pilot and two or three people."
"There are only two beds."
Finn nodded. "You hardly ever carry the full complement. But if you have to, you can have three eight hour shifts for four people." He picked up the corner of one of the bunk mattresses. "See, these are doubled. If you need extra, peel them apart, and the lower ranks get to sleep on the floor. That makes twelve."
"In shifts?" She thought that through, immediately finding a flaw. "That means two of them are trying to sleep on the floor out there while the rest of the ship is up and awake."
Finn didn't seem to see the issue. "Yeah? It's the military."
"How do you function without proper sleep?"
"Not very well. But you still function. You have to. You have to do your duty." He acted like he was having to describe why water was wet.
She sighed and put a hand on his cheek. "I'm glad you're out of there."
"We're going to end this war," he told her. "Somehow. No matter where we are."
"Stranded on a deserted planet?" Her hand dropped to his chest.
He smiled at her in a way that was a bit roguish. It was a good look on him, but Rose thought most things were a good look on him. Finn said, "Anywhere, anytime."
