Exercise, unfortunately, hasn't been able to quiet Cambridge's considerable and active mind.
He can't stop thinking over his memories of Wolf 359. Which, in turn, leads to him experiencing the symptoms of mild panic: elevated heart rate, racing thoughts, fixation on unnecessary details. There's no way he, in his position on that ship, could have prevented or changed the outcome of the space battle. Fortunately and unfortunately, things are different here. He could change it.
But does he want to?
He finishes another form from the various martial arts he's learned, alien and human. This one emphasizes precision and control; in training at the Academy, far-too-many years prior, he'd drawn on his prior ballet training (from ages five to fifteen, ten full years) more than he'd drawn on the instructor's actual words, and it had resulted in an easy aced course. He keeps himself honed now, too, because you never know when you need to take down a traitorous Klingon maid. These situations tend to come upon one without warning.
