PELICAN//Quarters (Ghost)[1]

Doc told me to keep an eye on the good man Mr. Jackson. So that's what I've been doing, at least for the last well just eight hours. No one told me to sleep on the job, huh? The camera in his room shows the Corporal sleeping. Why the fuck then am I sitting in the next room like a stowaway at my computer watching a half-naked man sleep?

Under other conditions Doc would have gotten it from me. But I don't like this Jackson. He knows too much for his own good. Messaged Doc to ask if I could kill him as well. I got a hunch the Corporal knows more about Op Chastity than he's saying. Not that he's said anything yet.

The damn room's dark, and almost everyone's asleep. The PELICAN is a nice ship and all, but it has no security. Corporal too confident for his own good. His goons are even sleeping, not patrolling at this time. It's only three and I'm not getting a challenge here. My trigger finger's itchy; dammit. Doc ain't replying- I don't blame him. People like him sleep soundly. I've seen the Doc sleep. Even gunshots don't wake the man.

Hold on, I think the Corporal moved in his sleep. Wow. This is so exciting.
