A bird may love a fish, but where would they live?

Adette was wandering slowly though the ship, doing her best to stay out from underfoot as people hurried past her on official business, or errands. She felt a bit useless, having nothing pressing to do herself. She wanted to help, but was unsure of where she might start in finding a place that would need her. What skills did she have anyways?
These thoughts and more run through her head like a marathon, an she wondered if she should have ever left home at all.

I should really do something about my position. Surely there must be something I can do. But... what?
It was hard to deny the exhilaration of being in space, of travel, and of danger, but it was hard to feel connected to any of the people around when she was so very disconnected from them.
