Mods? Partially closed

[Early Thursday morning -maybe early enough that it's technically late Wednesday, she's not keeping track of the time- Penny is pacing anxiously in Room 9. Every so often she stops, like she's decided to do something, before changing her mind and resuming her pacing a second later. Eventually, she abruptly rounds on her heel and faces the camera in her room.]

CECE? I need help!

[Almost the entire rest of the day, Penny can be found in the library, pouring over a massive stack of nonfiction books, with a general medical theme, but a few about traveling into deep space at sublight speeds, or setting up colony ships. And one wilderness survival guide? Regardless, she's incredibly intent on all of them.]

[Later still, she's at the pool, staring at its frozen surface, Miki's shovel held tightly in her hands. After a moment, she seems to gather her courage for something and steps forward to the pool's edge, holding the shovel vertically and bringing the blade down sharply onto the ice. And then keeps going, repeatedly striking one spot.]
