Rachel didn't see any point in buying pajamas out here. Her morphing suit does the trick well enough, even if she's not leaving the sheets spotless with dust-stained lycra. Her new boots are unlaced and resting by the bed, and her hat sits on the bed post.

She's lying on her back when Kate comes out, hands laced on her stomach and looking up at the ceiling. It'll take a few days to get those clothes and then she'll go back, before she 'fades.'

Before Milliways, Rachel was happy to leave who she used to be behind, with the rest of the life torn away from them. She'd gotten used to the idea, had liked it. After Milliways... it seems like everyone wants her to find a way to mesh the two.

"Yeah," Rachel says quietly, rolling onto her side and reaching for the blanket to pull it up a little higher. "Goodnight."
