ZEX was already feeling drained and tired after seeing DAX again and he'd almost forgotten that he'd arranged to meet with the Shofixti later that day. He couldn't say he was exactly looking forward to it, given the circumstances, and his last conversation with him had not gone well either. Although, if the Shofixti wanted to exchange insults for the rest of the shift, then that might be a welcome distraction from his circling thoughts. He wasn't sure it was possible to think about something else with how he was dwelling on his Captain, but there had to be something. There had to be a way to make this feeling stop, he was sure of it.

Either way, ZEX couldn't muster up the energy to be that concerned about what Tanaka wanted with him, or to look too hard for him. It was surprisingly hard to care about... anything right now. He walked into the Sun Room slowly, feeling heavy and tired. Find some place to sit, maybe... think about where to go from there...
