morethanhuman( The past few nights, Erik had been sleeping like the dead. )
It was still barely seven when he started on his second cup of terrible replicator coffee and texted Rogers. Where should I meet you? Intending to start walking toward the lift while he waited for an answer, he grabbed a sweater and headed out the door.
After a year and change on board the station, and especially in light of the last two weeks, Erik thought himself impervious to surprises. And yet, when he stepped through his doorway into a lush conservatory instead of the familiar metal and fluorescent hallway, he couldn't deny he was surprised. He hadn't been aware of the transporter engaging the way it had in the past; was this a trick of the station's? And if not, who else could it be, and what did they want with him?
As if in response to his silent question, there was movement behind one of the ferns, and Erik realized he wasn't alone in the room.
