Fleet Captain Addison MacKenzie - Pizza Approval
Addison MacKenzie
(OOC: Just a short one to get some tags out. I’m at my in-laws until the 30th and there was an unexpected birth, so things are way busier than I thought they would be. I’ll get any outstanding sims/tags answered then!)
(( Molly Malone’s Irish Pub – Deck 225, Deep Space 224 ))
Addison wasn’t one to beat around the bush.
MacKenzie: So, Ensign, why did you request a transfer from Denali Station?
Lyara: Well, to be honest. I just didn’t see the station life
working out for me personally. Being in one spot didn’t sound as fulfilling as
traveling across a whole region to help others. ::Taking a small sip of her
drink:: So when I saw the form to transfer I took the chance.
There was an honesty to the answer that the commanding officer of the Artemis appreciated from her officers. She believed they had also come to learn that she was adept at discovering when they were revealing anything less than the truth.
MacKenzie: Fair. And how are you finding the Borderlands so far?
Lyara: They’re definitely an interesting area. No lack of interesting things to be found.
MacKenzie: At this point, I’ve spent the majority of my time in the Borderlands more than any other campaign regions. It definitely has a lot to keep you on your toes.
Lyara took a sip of her drink and Addison took the opportunity to do the same.
Lyara: Your ship is at least very friendly. Everyone I’ve met so far has been really nice. ::Beat:: Hell, Salkath practically saved my life on Ura Nateos III.
MacKenzie: Well, that mission was a mess for a lot of reasons. I can tell you one thing, though – I likely wouldn’t have been able to carry you all that way.
She offered a conciliatory smirk.
Lyara: It’s definitely helped with adjusting to being on a ship. I’ve never been this far from Bajor before.
MacKenzie: One of the benefits of being in Starfleet is that you literally have the galaxy at your fingertips. I do believe that one of the benefits of serving on a starship as opposed to a station or colony is that you get to see a lot.
Lyara: Response
Addison nodded her head slightly.
MacKenzie: I’m glad that the crew has been welcoming so far. (beat) ::gesturing to the slice:: And that the pizza meets your approval.
Lyara: Response
Tag, and TBC!
