Lieutenant Franklin Myers walked onto the bridge, carefully toeing the blue-lit lines on the floor to avoid walking into a console or falling down the stairs. "Why is it so dark again?," he finally asked, exasperated.
"We're the night shift, remember?" answered a chirpy voice. Franklin squinted and saw the new ensign they had taken aboard back at Yanessa. He couldn't remember her name; Jessica, Jamie?
"We're on a space ship on the edge of the galaxy. There's no night."
"Apparently maintaining a proper day-night light cycle is good for your melatonin or something. Human Resources gave a presentation on it a couple days ago."
Franklin ignored the response and poured himself some coffee from the often-used dispenser near his station, grumbling. "Stupid HR, stupid melatonin. I bet the Star Destroyers crews don't have to do this."
