Kaijin 28-Aug-20 09:57 PM

*Small café, nothing overly special. Meh. He didn't mind. He sat under onr of the umbrellas outside, waiting for the rest to come along.*

LearnedAx 28-Aug-20 10:21 PM

*Pas eventually made his way there, decked out in civilian clothing. He waved enthusiastically to Kir as he approached.*

Kaijin 28-Aug-20 10:25 PM

"You look normal." *He remarked, though he himself had managed to pick out a civilian outfit for the occasion as well.* "As normal as can be anyway. Arian should be here soon enough..."

LearnedAx 28-Aug-20 10:36 PM

"Do I look abnormal in a uniform?" *He asked with a grin.* "And yeah, I read the messages too." (edited)

Kaijin 28-Aug-20 10:39 PM

"No more normal than I do." *He huffed, sitting back in his chair and folding his arms across his chest.* "Might go shopping after this... maybe. No idea what I'll buy but I guess we'll have to see."

LearnedAx 28-Aug-20 10:44 PM

"Well what would you want?" *he slid into his seat and rested his chin in his hands.*

Kaijin 28-Aug-20 10:55 PM

"There's a Benthan fruit that I kind of like." *He mumbled.* "It's greenish and tastes of lime sorbet but fizzier. I wonder if the Delta Alliance has helped with that kind of import. Might grow some."

LearnedAx 28-Aug-20 10:56 PM

"Hey that sounds cool. We do have a bunch of gardens and stuff."

Kaijin 28-Aug-20 10:57 PM

"It makes good sorbet too."

LearnedAx 28-Aug-20 10:59 PM

"You could make sorbet, that would be cool." (edited)

"Literally."

Kaijin 28-Aug-20 11:14 PM

*He sighed and rolled his eyes as he held his face in his hands.* "I suppose."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 28-Aug-20 11:16 PM

*Arian arrived, in uniform, and smiled when she saw the two,* "Hey guys! Sorry that took so long." *She took a seat.*

Kaijin 28-Aug-20 11:20 PM

"Now that the gang's here." *He muttered,* "I guess we'll be finding ourselves our breakfast. There's a nice sandwich and soup set on the menu."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 28-Aug-20 11:24 PM

*She picked up a menu,* "It has been a while since I had eggs. A cheesy omelet would be good."

LearnedAx 28-Aug-20 11:26 PM

"Hey Arian. Yeah some breakfast would be very nice." (edited)

Kaijin 28-Aug-20 11:38 PM

*Cheesy omelettes. Hmm. He'd have to try that sometime.* "Pas? What do you want?"

LearnedAx 28-Aug-20 11:40 PM

"Not sure, I've always been indesisive about food."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 28-Aug-20 11:40 PM

*She set down the menu,* "With some hoghar juice."

Kaijin 28-Aug-20 11:48 PM

"Same thing as Arian, then." *Standing he walked into the cafe and placed their orders before returning. He had **no** idea how to make small conversation.* "Um. I guess everyone uh... slept okay?"

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 28-Aug-20 11:50 PM

"Yeah, i bet almost everyone did. You always sleep better after a good cry." *She sat back some,* "Thanks for placing our order."

LearnedAx 28-Aug-20 11:52 PM

"Yeah, slept well. It was uh, pretty somber."

Kaijin 28-Aug-20 11:54 PM

"I slept... alright." *He muttered.* "I had a pretty bad dream, actually."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 28-Aug-20 11:55 PM

"Oh? Care to share?"

LearnedAx 28-Aug-20 11:56 PM

"What was it about?"

Kaijin 28-Aug-20 11:59 PM

"I was talking to my parents over subspace." *He muttered.* "They um... uh..." *He chewed on his bottom lip, barely noticing as their orders were placed in front of them.*

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 12:13 AM

*She I would thank the server, and once the server walked away she looked at Kir,* "They what?"

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 12:21 AM

"Tried to kill me." *He muttered grimly.* "Fired on me and all."

LearnedAx 29-Aug-20 12:41 AM

"Well, I'm no shrink, but that has some implications."

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 12:43 AM

"...what?" *He raised an eyebrow as he dug into his breakfast at last.*

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 01:24 AM

"You mentioned that leaving the Guard to join Starfleet was not well received." *She also dug into her omelet.*

LearnedAx 29-Aug-20 01:24 AM

"Yeah, uh, that."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 01:27 AM

"Perhaps when we are close to where they are, we can invite them as guests to the ship to visit you and see what a marvelous job you do."

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 01:43 AM

"Maybe." *He shrugged.* "Assuming they can be bothered to comr all the way out here."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 01:45 AM

"It is your people's way to be unattached to their offspring once they have left home?"

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 02:13 AM

"Not exactly. Benthans care a lot about... legacy. Continuation. If my parents wanted a legacy of Guard officers what do you think they'll do with me?"

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 02:17 AM

"Appreciate that Federation Security is a much larger and farther reaching version of the Guard and be proud of you expending and improving the legacy."

LearnedAx 29-Aug-20 02:18 AM

"Not be dicks about it, ideally."

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 02:21 AM

"Somehow I don't think they'll be quite so proud. They spent... what, sixteen years grooming me for the Guard? Or so? As far as they're concerned I'm still in the Guard somewhere..."

LearnedAx 29-Aug-20 02:23 AM

"Well if they don't like that you're a badass ranking officer on a cutting edge starship with some, very sexy friends, fuck em."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 02:25 AM

*She nodded a bit,* "You are, as Pasto said so inelegantly. You are guarding the entire Delta Quadrant as a Starfleet Security Officer. As Assistant Chief of a starship's Security Force, no less." (edited)

*She adds,* "... it is apparent that you care about what your parents feel about your career progression. Perhaps you should call them."

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 02:28 AM

"Probably will when we're done on this trip." *He replied, narrowing his eyes at Pas. 'Very sexy friends.' He wasn't so sure about that.*

LearnedAx 29-Aug-20 02:31 AM

*He just grinned back at him*

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 02:31 AM

"Ten more years? You're a full Lieutenant, it has already been at least six years since you started the Academy. Kirhal, sent them a written letter at least."

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 02:34 AM

"I will. Somehow." *He answered.* "Answer will probably arrive next year knowing them but eh, who cares. This sandwich is amazing." (edited)

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 02:18 PM

"They use real food here. No replicators. That's the advantage of a big enough facility. Enough people eating means you go through the food fast enough to justify storing it."

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 02:20 PM

“Huh. Okay.” *He didn’t quite know what else to say on the matter.* “Drinks anyone?”

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 02:26 PM

"I don't need a refill yet, but thanks."

LearnedAx 29-Aug-20 04:40 PM

"Real food is always nice."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 05:18 PM

"Want is your favorite non-replicated food?" *She asked them both.*

LearnedAx 29-Aug-20 05:20 PM

"I mean, you can replicate any food. That's not really a distinction."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 05:26 PM

"I'll word it a different way then. Which food can the replicator just not get right to you?"

LearnedAx 29-Aug-20 05:34 PM

"Oh I don't know. I'm just never sure about food."

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 08:29 PM

"Benthan keven stew. It's this meat stew of sorts. Replicators make it taste flat."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 10:44 PM

"If you run into some, let me know. I'd love to try it." *She continued on her omelet.*

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 10:46 PM

"Why wait? I'll replicate some for the three of us when we get back. If you want."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 10:49 PM

"I mean real stew, heh. But first we need to find a Benthan named Kevin."

LearnedAx 29-Aug-20 10:50 PM

"Yeah..."

"What?"

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 10:50 PM

"To make the stew with."

LearnedAx 29-Aug-20 10:51 PM

"Oh. Haaaaa ha ha." *He grinned.* "That's good."

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 10:55 PM

"But we don't make-" *He paused for a second to process the joke before raising an eyebrow.* "Very funny."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 10:58 PM

*She merely grinned.*

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 11:17 PM

"Chopped and boiled Benthan. Hah. As if."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 11:21 PM

"Boiled? Ew. Pan roasted or slow cooked is best for meat, says I."

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 11:27 PM

"Grilled." *He retorted - it seemed that he had some taste in food after all!* "But pan roasted is amazing.:

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 11:30 PM

"Well, any thoughts on what to do next?"

LearnedAx 29-Aug-20 11:32 PM

"Gotta love the thoughtful cannibal. Kir mentioned he wanted to do some shopping." (edited)

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 11:33 PM

"Oh? Shopping for what?"

Kaijin 29-Aug-20 11:50 PM

"Dunno. Walk round and view the outfits I guess. I probably need something more than what I've got.:

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 11:51 PM

"Clothing. Hmm."

LearnedAx 29-Aug-20 11:52 PM

"Ooh, we should give you a makeover."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 29-Aug-20 11:55 PM

"Don't overdo it. We don't want to break him." *She finished what was left of her meal.*

LearnedAx 30-Aug-20 12:00 AM

"We could get him looking real nice. With your direction of course. A big part of self esteem is liking how you look."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 30-Aug-20 12:01 AM

"He'd just wear armor if we did that."

Kaijin 30-Aug-20 12:14 AM

"...um. What? No...?" *He stammered.*

LearnedAx 30-Aug-20 12:16 AM

"No what?" *He rested his chin on his hands and raised an eyebrow at him.*

Kaijin 30-Aug-20 12:18 AM

"I'm pretty sure I don't just like to wear armor."

LearnedAx 30-Aug-20 12:27 AM

"Exactly, so we gotta get you styled up. I'm thinking slacks, and maybe a polonstyle shirt. Something nice that isn't too relaxed, but shows off those arms."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 30-Aug-20 12:39 AM

*She sighed some,* "Ok, a more serious approach. What do you want these clothes for? Leisure? Physical activities? Casual wear? Formal events?"

Kaijin 30-Aug-20 12:50 AM

"Casual wear I guess."

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 30-Aug-20 12:51 AM

"Traditional Benthan, another specific style, or basic contemporary?"

Kaijin 30-Aug-20 12:54 AM

"Let's do basic contemporary for now?"

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 30-Aug-20 12:57 AM

*She looked over at Pas,* "Are you well and prepared for this momentous endeavor, sir?"

Kaijin 30-Aug-20 12:58 AM

"*Momentuous endeavor!?*" *He exclaimed,* "This isn't thr bloody signing of the Khitomer Accords!"

LearnedAx 30-Aug-20 01:02 AM

"Yes! It's the Kir-tomer Accorders!"

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 30-Aug-20 01:04 AM

*She laughed.*

Kaijin 30-Aug-20 01:07 AM

"Screw you." *He growled, stalking off to return his bowl and plate.*

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 30-Aug-20 01:12 AM

*She got up too, following him to do the same with hers.*

LearnedAx 30-Aug-20 01:15 AM

"Oh okay, let's do this." *He followed the recycling conga line.* (edited)

Kaijin 30-Aug-20 01:18 AM

*Why had he agreed in the first place? Oh, right. Just so that he wouldn't be shipped off to god knows where. A psychiatric facility perhaps. Sighing he walked out of the cafe and into the streets.*

Lt. JG Arian Rhosyn 30-Aug-20 01:22 AM

*She kept close behind.*

LearnedAx 30-Aug-20 01:26 AM

*Pas did some unnecessary parkour over a table as he followed.*

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 09:40 AM

*she walked in together with Vale* "Is this the place you were talking about?" *she looks to her* ( @Cmdr Vale Azoci )

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 09:44 AM

((Thanks )) *Vale smiled and nodded* “This is it. Despite looking so simple they can do some amazing things.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 09:46 AM

(You are welcome :)) "well my anticipation is growing now, lets look for a table" *she navigated smoothly between the tables*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 09:58 AM

*Vale knew what beautiful spots were like most betazoids but never felt confortable finding them and sitting in them herself but now she found a lovely spot by the window where the light from the hub outside and the light in the Cafe crossed over beautifully.* “I think this looks nice.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 10:00 AM

"It indeed is, lets settle here" *she chuckles and sits down* "The light here plays really well together, you have a good eye." *she grins widely at her*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 10:03 AM

“One of the more irritating betazoid traits. I may need to warn you in case something happens... Betazoids sometimes become far more... flamboyant when under stress. Its never happened to me but I’ve seen it and for the last time I wish i hadn’t.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 10:11 AM

*she takes her hand* "Well then it would be up to me to calm you down or relief you from some stress, though i wouldnt mind i guess, as long as you dont do it during duty." *she nods and chuckles a bit* "Though i wonder how you would express this then."

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 10:14 AM

“I honestly dont know but after needing to take a betazoid to the doctor after smashing a table trying to get out of tight pants those wont be a part of it.” *Vale laughed and then looked to Jane with Vine climbing around her she looked beautiful in the light.* “If only i could capture this moment. You truly don’t know how stunning you look.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 10:19 AM

*she got a bit red* "Hey thats unfair, dont steal my compliments for you" *she chuckles lightly* "And well you can make a picture you know? But even if i would make a picture of you it would pale against the beauty of this moment right now" *she smiles*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 10:27 AM

“You must be joking I know I’m not even good looking.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 10:30 AM

*she thinks for a moment* "Well i know i aint joking." *she grins* "But i could say the same about me. Below this." *she points at her uniform* "Are more scars then i can count, but that is not all that counts. What counts is this" *she taps against her heart* "And besides you are very good looking to me." *she smirks*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 10:47 AM

“You haven’t seen my scars yet.” *she squirmed in her chair a bit* “The last time I went to a wedding there was only one person there that looked at me like a person and not a strange huge scar... Despite being human his wife noticed and was pissed.. “

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 10:50 AM

"Well the scars are a diary of the soldier, but they also show that we are a survivor, so better not mess with us" *she chuckles* "So betazoid weddings are really hold in the nude? I sometimes thought that was a kind of joke"

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 10:52 AM

“It’s no joke... I’ve seen our troublemaker Spyre at his wedding...” *Vale pulled a face of disgust but not for what a he looked like but for what he’d become.*

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 10:54 AM

"You and him have some background i suppose." *she notices her face and feels a bit bad but keeps up hher face* "Sometimes its better to keep up the good memories then the bad ones, even if both are real."

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 11:00 AM

“I still have the memory of him with his pants down... concussed... after falling into a glas table trying to remove them. I got him to the sickbay so just ask Dr Edwards.” *Despite herself she started to laugh.*

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 11:01 AM

*she chuckles a bit* "Well that must have been quite the picture" *she nods and watches her laughing* "Well this suits you way better you know?"

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 11:31 AM

*Suddenly feeling a little self conscious Vale tried to stop laughing which Ofcorse as always happens makes things worse.*

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 11:37 AM

*she giggles a bit and looks at her dreamy* "And you say you aint beautiful." *she nods a bit*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 11:53 AM

“I still don’t believe you. Not when you are sitting here. You are both strong and beautiful.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 11:57 AM

"Calling me a liar?" *she smirks* "Even with me sitting here my words remain true. You are strong, beautiful, you have this air around you that makes me follow you into hell and back and you managed to safe a soft spot in your heart" *she smiles widely* "Otherwise we wouldnt be here, which means you have held up hope till now. And that makes you strong in my books"

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 12:08 PM

*Vale thought for a moment. Food was needed for her questions. Something to soften the mood for what she might ask as Vale realised she had been taking about herself so much. She picked up the PADD to order.*

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 12:11 PM

*she grins* "Well this time i will be at your mercy, you can order for me too if you want." *she grins* "Just no gagh on my pizza" *she watches her grinning*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 12:24 PM

“Oh but its so nice when the pizza wiggles back.” \*Vale teased and ordered the pizza her and her friend had often made from scratch at the academy using some equipment that probably never anyone else had thought of for making pizza. Only the meat was replicated. “A barbecue themed pizza, a friend of mine from the academy found the recipe in the medical buildings banned food list.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 12:28 PM

"A fried of yours? What was he or she like?" *she smirks* "Banned food list? Why would food be banned?" *she grins, enjoying that she talks a bit about herself*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 12:31 PM

“Yes his name is... Ass he’s an andorian raised on earth. After the academy he left to become an artist but he works a lot with the federation. And we wanted to know so we made it and apparently is something to do with the amount of running you need to do afterwards to stay fit and the academy will do anything to keep their people fit its afterwards that same of the admiralty get desk job guts.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 12:49 PM

"His name was Ass?" *she chuckles* "Andorian shortnames sometimes sure are weird. So he is an Artist? What kind of art does he make? Ah, so it was banned because it doesnt do well with the fitnessplan in mind, well that explains it then"

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 12:55 PM

“But as you know as soldiers theres times we need something that isnt standard rations or tastes suspiciously like standard rations after eating terrible food for a wile. And yes his name is Ass. He chose it and he loves it for the laughs he gets and making his professors uncomfortable saying it. He uses the holodeck to create things that cant exist in nature.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 12:59 PM

"Oh my god yes, i still want to shoot the one who came up with these rations, they were terrible in taste, even if they filled your belly." *she groans and laughs* "So he makes holodeck programs? Sounds likr he has quite the talent."

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 01:07 PM

“He was inspired by the people that on the first readily available computers made the first games thats were simulations of reality. He makes some great combat simulations.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 01:12 PM

"Oh, so he also likes human history too? Would be interesting to meet your friend one day. I am always down for s good combat simulation" *she grins widely*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 01:20 PM

“I picked up so many bad habits from him... I had to translate when he broke his jaw and it became much harder to fix than they thought it would be and no one knew sign languige so I had to translate by reading his mind... he swore a lot and thought much worse than he spoke” (edited)

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 01:48 PM

"So he was one who spoke his heart at all times huh?" *she grins and nods a bit* "So you know signlanguage? That is usefull, not everybody can understand it or learn it." *she nods a bit* "He sounds like someone fun to have around"

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 02:53 PM

“He is but he’s a bit of a nomad. He likes federation ships because no money and most people are working so he gets more time in the holodeck.” Vale said smiling. “Now I want to know what you got up to in the academy.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 04:25 PM

*she grins a bit and leans back* "Well mostly i got myself in trouble. Instructors, teachers, you name it and i can most likely say i had trouble with them" *she nods* "I wasnt really the friend gathering type, i sticked too much out of the group, and i wasnt also reall a good student for everything else that was tactical. But i can proudly say i never let a prank or something alike played on me be without retaliation." *she looked to the side* "Even if that meant some academy property had to pay the price too."

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 04:27 PM

*Vale leaned forward her eyes lighting up* “Oh tell me more! I want all the details!” *she loved mischief really loved mischief*

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 04:34 PM

"Well it wasnt much. Some manipulated consoles here and there, some experiments ruined. There was one time when i felt like i found a group for myself. You know, good friends, even if they were admiral snob kids, but they seemed different. Naiv me decided it was good to trust them, turns out they really hated my family name, my father caused many headaches for their fathers. " *she sighs* "It was a tactical simulation where they decided to betray me which lead to our team loose in a competition." *she looks down* "And some nasty after match meeting. But thats details for later. Anyways, i got back at them by manipulating a shuttle during a training flight where the lords decided to command the shuttle while banishing me to the sidelines." *she smirks* "Little did they know that someone else who got bullied by them helped me tinker with the controls. They crashed the shuttle, complete loss, and were given a scolding and almost were thrown out of academy. Now imagine smug young me grinning in their face while they knew it was my fault but couldnt prove it and even their fathers were powerless" *she laughs a bit*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 04:36 PM

“I think Ass would call that pro revenge. Please tell me more even just to hear your voice.” (edited)

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 05:07 PM

"Hm it was a bit uneventfull after that, since most of the student began to stay away from me. Rumors and all, some found it funny to call me cursed, cause believe it or not i had to do all the tactical courses alone, cause they either feared something happens to them or just because they simply didnt wanted to take orders from a woman they dont aprove of." *she laughs wholeheartedly* "You should have seen their faces when they were beat by a one woman army, cause with no team to watch out for i could go all out without holding anything back. I think i made it inside the academy to provisional Master Chief rank, sadly i didnt excell in the other areas like i did in tactical. But i mean with my family being tactical officers for generations, what kind of other outcome was to be expected." *she grins* "Though i will never forget the academy games finals, they really decided it was wise to band all together against me. Imagine it, a whole year of tactical students being so enraged at a single woman that they gang up on her. Needless to say that there was no teamplay from them or anything. Which i could use to my advantage."

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 05:09 PM

“You’d think the professors would do something about that.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 05:13 PM

"They were encouraged not too." *she shakes her head* "When admirals play their strings you just realize how small of a wheel you are. Well the match ended with 3 burned out compression rifles, 2 blown up phasers and a broken klingon painstick." *she smirks* "Not to mention the broken bones and missing teeth. And one stun grenade which may have exploded differently. I had various cuts and phaserburns from near misses, but i felt hardly more alive then in that moment. Not to mention facing of against elites students. Elite my ass, pretentious bastards is what they were." *she nods and laughs* "Then the iconian threat emerged the first time and we had to prepare troups."

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 05:58 PM

“Ugh... iconians... “ *Vale sighed* “They were all trouble.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 06:00 PM

"Yes they were. Lost many good men under my command to them." *she sighs* "But, we prevailed, as we always do." *she chuckles a bit* "And now we are able to sit in a nice cafe and wait for our pizzas to arrive while we tell each other old stories"

Cmdr Vale Azoci 30-Aug-20 06:53 PM

“Yeah... I lost people as well... people that were too close.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 30-Aug-20 07:19 PM

*she nods* "I can relate to that." *she holds her stomach* "You should maybe know a small addition about me." *she looks to her*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 03:31 AM

*Vale smiled and nodded* “I want to know about all of you even the extra.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 05:31 AM

"Well the extra isnt a nice thing" *she sighs a bit* "I cant get children again." *she looks to her*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 05:32 AM

“Again?” *Vale asked blinking*

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 05:34 AM

"I was pregnant once, but due to a Breen raid on our training camp i lost both. Unborn 3 month child and the ability to concieve another one" *she holds her stomach* "I thought you should know thaz"

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 05:50 AM

“I uh... I understand...“ *Vale wanted to say something more share her own experience but she had felt the horror and disgust people had ether directed at the cardassian or at herself. She couldn’t deal with more of that. She just wanted to move on from it.* “I understand...” *was all she could say but she didn’t truely understand.*

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 05:52 AM

*she takes her hand* "Hey dont feel bad for me, i already closed that chhapter for me, i just wanted to let you know, even if i could have picked a better surrounding for this." *she still smiles at her but is worried how that impacted vale*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 06:19 AM

*Vale nodded and let the noise of everyone’s feelings wash over her at that moment so she wasn’t mentally dragged back there to looking up at the cardassian knowing what he was going to do and had already done and then kill her. She had to pull her mind away from that to what cold be even more overwhelming. She had to fight being overwhelmed by her own memories and by the colophon of minds on the station. She had to fight that and stay sane for Jane.* “Perhaps medicine may be able to help now. But it’s still your choice.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 06:51 AM

*she smiles and shakes her head* "No medicine brings back what is lost and i dont need it to be happy." *she looks to her* "What i need for that is you. And thats all that matters now."

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 09:16 AM

*Vale turned her head as the pizza came and was placed infront of them ready sliced.* “Ah there just in time.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 09:18 AM

*she grins* "In time indeed." *she nods a bit and stares for a moment at it* "Hm, this looks like a long training session to me." *she chuckles a bit and takes a slice*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 09:20 AM

*Vale picked up a slice of pizza* “comfort food.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 09:37 AM

*she grins while she eats her slice* "It indeed is Vale." *she grins widely as she continues to eat it*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 10:04 AM

*Vale ate her slice fast.* “Good?”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 10:07 AM

"Very good." *she smirks* "Ifyou gulp it down like that it will be bad for your health" *she grins and eats her second slice*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 10:09 AM

“Bad habit from my first hunts.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 10:12 AM

"Let me guess, eat fast cause you are on the run?" *she nods a but*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 10:13 AM

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 10:14 AM

*she smiles* "Well you dont have to be in a hurry around me, its another thing if we are on duty tho" *she nods*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 10:57 AM

“I took a liking to bagels after that because I can put things on the bagel and run to my post with bagel and eat it before anyone notices.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 11:01 AM

"Arent bagel these round breads with a hole in them" *she tilts her head a bit* "Sounds like some quick and easy food choice."

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 11:03 AM

“Quick and Easley and very mobile and yes its one of those round breads with the hole in the middle.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 11:06 AM

*She grins and starts ther thrid slice* "Please tell me the replicator can make pizzas, i love them."

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 11:08 AM

“I have no idea bu I can get it to make the raw ingredients so I just need to speak to someone in engineering about cooking beside the warp core.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 11:12 AM

"Hm, a pizza cooked over warpplasma, sounds interesting" *she giggles*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 11:12 AM

“Its hard to find anywhere on the ship hot enough that’s not sealed off “

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 11:13 AM

"True, but couldnt we make something that works like an oven in club odessey or in four forward? I mean the later is mostly holographic anyways."

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 11:16 AM

“We could.... ether RIcky can do it or I can get a mini holo program from Ass.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 11:26 AM

"Well i guess he will be delighted to help an old friend." *she chuckles a bit*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 11:36 AM

“Friends are hard to find.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 11:40 AM

"Indeed they are hard to find, and for soulmates its even harder." *she looks down om her pizza*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 12:34 PM

“Perhaps we are lucky.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 12:35 PM

"For that i am really gratefull." *she smirks a bit and looks to her* "Are you okay?"

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 01:00 PM

*Vale nodded slowly going back to old methods of dealing with her abilities without frying her poor mind.* “I’m alright yes I’m alright...”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 01:08 PM

*she puts her slice down and takes her hand* "Hey, talk to me Vale, what is it?" *she looks her in the eyes*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 01:40 PM

“Just... something brought back some memories of the cardassians.. I’m alright now.” *Vale didnt even know how to say anything about this but at some time she would have to.*

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 01:43 PM

*she stands up, walks around the table and sits down besides her and hugs her* "Its okay Vale."

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 01:47 PM

“I’m alright really.” *Vale said but still hugged Jane back.*

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 01:48 PM

"Then why do you look so sad?" *she squeezes her a bit* "Time for other thoughts"

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 01:49 PM

“Thats what I’m trying to do.’ *Vale said hostile not letting go of Jane.*

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 01:51 PM

*she turns a bit so that she sat on vales lap facing her* "And i feel like i make you angrier with every time i try to distract you from yourthoughts" *she puts her arms around her neck*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 02:20 PM

“It’s not you... just those memories are too painful to share yet.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 02:22 PM

"Then shove the back" *she kisses the tip of her nose* "The past forms us, but it is the past. We live now." *she chuckles* "Yes i had a lot of fortune cookies"

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 02:24 PM

“Fortune cookies?” *Vale blinked* “What are fortune cookies?”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 02:30 PM

"You seriously dont know them? Chinese bakery with a piece of paper inside them. Usually with a wise quote or so on them" *she giggles a bit*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 02:32 PM

“I might have had to deal closely with humans for a wile bit I’m still not human.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 02:33 PM

*She grins* "Well i can show them to you when i find them somewhere" *she looks into her eyes* "Well deal with me as closely as you like, since i am part human after all" *she winks to her*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 02:40 PM

“So... I would like to see one of these fortune cookies.” *Vale said smiling*

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 02:45 PM

*she grins* "Well if we can find a chinese shop that sells them" *she chuckles* "Then i can introduce you to then"

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 03:23 PM

“We should.” \*She got up and tried to leave the unpleasant memories there in the chair. Unfortunately memories didn’t work like that buts for a little wile she could live in the fantasy that they could.

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 03:24 PM

*since she still sat on her lap she grins and wraps her legs around her and lets her be lift up* "My my, such a stormy one." *she giggles and then lets go over her and quickly stands befor her* "Judging by the time we also have to get ready for the metal band we wanted to visit"

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 04:03 PM

“You hear that? If we have to get ready for the Klingon metal we’ll have to do it fast!”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 04:06 PM

"Well then what are we waiting for?" *she grins* "But i am pretty ready as i am now anyways." *she smirks*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 04:06 PM

“Same but we could pick up a few things with spikes on them. Klingons like that.”

Lt. Jason Isker 31-Aug-20 04:07 PM

"Spikes? Interesting, lets try that" *she nods*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 31-Aug-20 04:13 PM

*Vale cooed to her Vine who wrapped itself around her arm eating a piece of crust in her hand* “I hear they have a clothing shop here.”

Ensign Jane Sheppard BOT 31-Aug-20 04:14 PM

"Well then lets go." *she nods*
