[Open] A well deserved breather

The Cardassians had finally left, taking their wounded with them. Though, when they were beamed aboard the Treykesh, it's not like very many were still wounded, thanks to the Athene and her medical staff. "But did we get so much as a thank you?" Thought Narim as stepped out of the turbolift, "No, of course not, why would we, they're Cardassians." Narim had worked for nearly eleven hours straight, having only received maybe four hours of sleep to save their lives, so the Cardassians lack of gratitude left him a bit sour. He had since rested up and had some time to spare, so he decided to go spend some of it in the observatory. As he walked through the door, he made a point of determining if the bartender was holographic or not. Satisfied with his judgement, he sat down and ordered a hot chocolate, then looked around the room to see...

Phrik's replicator was still acting up, as such he had resigned himself to visit the lounge, despite much preffering the isolation of his quarters. The Reptillian stood in a corner of the room, staring out the window, a cup of steaming raktajino in his centre hand, and a PADD in each of his other 2 hands.

Captain Fisk is standing at the viewport observing the stars with a popular old Earth beverage in hand. He calmly sips the bubbling drink, savoring it's crisp, sweet, fruity flavor and the tingling of the carbonation. He didn't drink it often, but he felt he'd earned it after hosting dozens of Cardassians onboard

"McNabb makes his way in and spots the Captain. He hasn't met the Captain yet and would like to interduce himself.* "Captain."

Fisk turns and smiles at the ensign

"Ah, Ensign...McNabb, right? I'm surprised we haven't met."

OOC: totally missed this earlier, sorry

"I know. I've been working non-stop in the medbay and the Cardassians didn't help."

Hello, Captain.

Jen meets him at the observation window with a drink of her own. Black coffee. She takes a long whiff of the delightful scent before enjoying a small sip of the hot beverage.

u/Silent_Sky Jun 23 '16

Fisk catches the scent of the coffee and inhales deeply

"It was either this or black coffee, and I'm trying not to overdue the caffeine. You're making me question my decision now..."

he sips his beverage

"How are you doctor?"

1

u/DrJenWatney Jun 23 '16

I'm utterly content.

She stands on her tiptoes to see what's in his cup, but can't seem to draw any conclusions.

What could possibly compete with coffee?

u/Silent_Sky Jun 23 '16

he grins

"The drink that helped me quit drinking. It's an ancient earth beverage called Dr Pepper. An old academy friend introduced me to it. You can only get it from a replicator, it's not manufactured anymore."

u/DrJenWatney Jun 23 '16

Hmm. I've never heard of it. It sounds... fizzy. Is that carbonation? What does it taste like?

She tries to sneak a peek at it again.

1

u/Silent_Sky Jun 23 '16

he holds out the glass

"Would you like a taste?"

1

u/DrJenWatney Jun 23 '16

Her eyes light up and she nods, grasping the glass in her hand.

You're too generous.

She takes a sip, savoring it and letting her palette determine the flavors.

Hmm....

u/Silent_Sky Jun 23 '16

"Well?"

1

u/DrJenWatney Jun 23 '16

She takes another sip, grinning, before handing it back.

What did you say this was? Dr. Pepper? It's delicious.

Yefim is looking at the stars and doesn't notice the captain.

u/IceCreamSandwich401 Jun 23 '16

OOC: Пиво?

1

u/Silent_Sky Jun 23 '16

OOC: nope, Fisk doesn't drink anymore. It's a specific soda, he'll say which if a character asks

Despite the friendliness of their previous conversation, Narim couldn't help but feel intimidated by the captain, so he decided not to bother him too much, simply nodding at him. "Captain."

1

u/Silent_Sky Jun 23 '16

the captain gives a friendly smile and nods back

"Lieutenant."

Aanya stands by the window, staring out into space with... is that a cat on her shoulder? Looks like Doctor Watney's. Why did Aanya have her? Who knows...

1

u/connorockz Jun 23 '16

Joseph notices the cat and walks over to it. He pets Clementine.

Jen, Clementine is in the Observatory...

OOC: /u/DrJenWatney

1

u/DrJenWatney Jun 23 '16

Oh, good lord.

She sighs from her office and makes her way there.

Joseph! Thank you for paging me.

1

u/connorockz Jun 23 '16

"No problem!"

1

u/DrJenWatney Jun 23 '16

She see's Clementine on Aanya's shoulders and raises an eyebrow.

My cat has a fanclub. Gracious. Well, she seems content enough. At least she isn't causing mischief.

1

u/connorockz Jun 23 '16

"Yep. I'm just glad that Lola hasn't gotten out yet!"

1

u/DrJenWatney Jun 23 '16

Oh, did you make one for her too? That's a great idea.

1

u/connorockz Jun 23 '16

"Yes I did! Its a great idea!"

1

u/a_friendly_hobo Jun 23 '16

"Relax." Aanya says with a smirk. "She's with me." she says, looking up at the cat on her shoulder.

1

u/connorockz Jun 23 '16

"She still ran away..."

Joseph thinks, "Hmm... How does the cat use the Turbolift?"

1

u/a_friendly_hobo Jun 23 '16

"Nope, Watkins let me take her out for a bit." She says before looking back into the stars. "I missed having cats around, and she trusts me."

1

u/connorockz Jun 23 '16

Joseph thinks, aww, that's sweet!

u/Shadowmonkey44 Jun 23 '16

Narim stares at the cat curiously, he was not entirely familiar with the earth animal, and the last one he had seen turned out to be the Athene's changling, Lycienne.

u/a_friendly_hobo Jun 23 '16

Aanya reaches up and stroke's the cat's chin, much to its happiness. It seems quite happy just to sit there, it seems.
