@VasRannoch_ Shepard sees the blanket, reaches for it and spreads it out after sitting on the couch. Patting next to her on the cushion to invite Tali over.
"It's quiet in here, not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing..." She commented, usually the hums of all machinery aided her sleep.

"The couch in the observation room sounds comfortable enough. I could honestly sleep anywhere. Standing, sitting up."
Shepard lists different ways of sleeping before letting out a small yawn.
@VasRannoch_ Shepard stopped in her tracks as Tali mentioned to nap together. A part of Shepard hoped she didn't toss and turn in her sleep this time.

"Alright. You got me. Two hours, nothing more, nothing less."
Shepard lowers her arm, then pushes herself up from her seat.
"Don't say I never listened to you." Shepard cracked a bit of a smile as she wandered around the elevator.
@VasRannoch_ Annnnnd there goes her idea. Of course Tali got to the engine room this morning. So much for that.
A hand moves to run through the back of her hair, eyes shut with a hum, contemplating if she had any other ideas. None came to mind.

@VasRannoch_ Shepard's lip twitch for a second.
𝑻𝒘𝒐 hours? Thirty minutes was her usual but, two?
She could finish her paperwork within that timeframe!
"That sounds really... tempting but don't you have to ... calibrate the engines?"
She's reaching pretty far now.
@VasRannoch_ The dark lines under Shepard's eyes really did give it away. Damn. She should invest in something to cover those up.
"Alright. Alright. I'll take a thirty minute nap, nothing more, nothing less."
The usually stubborn redhead wouldn't listen to anyone, besides her crewmates.
@VasRannoch_ >>
"No, but maybe I'll see her later. I'm due for a couple of checkups and I *might* be avoiding them at the moment."
Shepard started to peek over at the Med-Bay, trying to make sure she wasn't in sight.
@VasRannoch_ Shepard's face softens at the gesture. While she knew resting was needed, the Commander didn't fare well with sitting still.
Then her face falls at the mention of Chakwas. She knew that she would get a scolding from the Doctor.
Not like she didn't deserve it...
>>
@VasRannoch_ The Commander slowly raises her head, noticing Tali had spoken to her.
Giving a weak smile, she'd shrug a little.
"We can just say I ... overextended today during a mission. Again."
She comments as she rolls her shoulders.
