Kai is preparing and adjusting for curly's tour of the ship today making sure he's going to be as comfortable as possible.

"yeah let's go.." curly adjust his position as he gets wheeled out of the room, looking around the hallway it's nice not to be in a room that brings him back to a unfortunate time, still he's grateful for everything.

"you ok curly?"kai asks him while curly stares out of the window.
