01 » (ship | Bloodsport) » DECEMBER 8th to 13th » When she gets back after her interruption (though thankfully this time was less of a lengthy absence), she doesn't spend a lot of time on her assigned ship, but she is there — sometimes.
Her sleep is more off than usual after her return; either she finds she can't sleep, or she's asleep for a couple of hours (if that) before she jolts awake after a nightmare. When the latter happens, she doesn't want to disturb her shipmates who are actually getting some sleep in (or she feels too bad about waking one of them up), so she slinks off to another area of the ship to be. Usually that means she'll sit under the stream of hot water in the shower for the ten minutes it's hot, then let the cold water run over her until she can't stand it any more, or she goes to the dining area and pokes at some of the protein stuff that still looks questionable.
If someone in the ship doesn't see her awake in the kitchen, well. Her time in the kitchen also becomes the occasional extra sleeping area for her, when she's stared at protein long enough while thinking about everything and nothing, her head becomes heavy again and she rests it on the table. This doesn't last long, though, because it often only becomes a matter of time before some unpleasant image comes up in her brain, and she jolts awake again — or, she wakes up when she hears the microwave(ish) device beeping at her because her powers are interacting with it as her mind is bothered in sleep. That, or she causes a little shaking that wakes her up.
After that, she usually just walks outside of the ship and goes elsewhere. Sometimes she sits by it. Mostly she needs peace.
02 » (ruins | any of them) » DECEMBER 14th to 17th »
And as the days pass, she takes her sleep-deprived-angry-sad ass to some of the ruins around to go take her energy out on them. Leaping around them like they're some obstacle course, or making some of the rocks shake until they break. Uh, duck?
And when that gets old, she takes a seat on some block of ruin, and tries to meditate. "tries" being he key word, because it often ends up like her attempts at sleep. When her mind tries to enter any state of relaxation, it too often goes back to Krakoa and what she feels is a very personal failure on her part, and that is a little bit too recent, too fresh, for her to get reprieve from just yet. It reminded her of how much she hates herself, deep down, and oneself is an impossible thing to run from. Like sleep, it sends her into panic attacks. Oh yeah, she's definitely her father's child.

[drop me a starter with her somewhere else, or hit me up on PM or plurk to hash a specific thing out.]

He can feel the tumult of emotions rolling off of her, and there's a look of sympathy on Obi-Wan's face as he looks on. Eventually he moves closer, hoping not to startle her.
"Would you mind if I sit here?" He asks, motioning to another block of concrete next to hers.

"Sorry if my mess and noise was bothersome. Rough day."

“I may not be able to help with whatever is troubling you, but if you’re seeking to calm your mind, that is something I know a bit about.”
He’s a Jedi after all, and they spent their entire lives learning how to quiet their minds.

"I already have thirty-nine years experience in the troubles department, so if you do have any tips for chill, I'm absolutely all ears."

This is says with amusement, even if there is a slightly sad note at the end. Green hair was not all that unusual where he was from either!
“Well then, it’s fortunate that I have thirty-eight years of experience in the chill department. I couldn’t help but notice that you were trying to meditate.”

“As for the how, it’s from a lifetime of training and discipline. Though that doesn’t mean you can’t learn as well.”
