Vitor was slowly walking in the direction of Sada's new quarters. For the twelveth time he regretted chosing the heavy welcoming gif for Sada.

He was guessing she would like it, Vitor wasn't that bad in gift giving, or at least he thought.

But it would have been easier if he decided to bring some food instead.

So he was balancing the long wrapped up present, and the smaller, rounder and also wrapped, as he took small steps getting closer to Sada's new address.

Once he arrived he managed to hit the chime, as he set down the large gift wrap. The other rested under his arm.

Sadar/Aqila: Response

Lyara/Tarkin: Response

He could hear the voices from inside and he smiled, opening his free arm, once they opened the door.

Silveira: Hey, welcome back. ::he grabbed the big present and made his way inside.:: OK clear some room, I need to set this down. Hello everyone.

Finding an empty spot he put down the large gift and set the smaller next to it.
He opened his arms to Sada.

Silveira: It’s good to see you again Doc.

Sadar: Response

He turned to who Vitor assumed to be her nephew, and their newest and younger “crewmate”

Silveira: And you must be our newest guest. Welcome to the Artemis. ::He winked at Sada:: I am your new crazy uncle Sil.

Aquila: Response

He smiled and nodded to Al and Tarrik.

Silveira: Al, Tarrik. Good to see you both already here.

Lyara/Tarkin: Response

He then opened his arms and gestured to the wrapped up gifts. He used the leftovers from the Christmas wrappings. A tactical gold paper, filled with little logos of Starfleet and the Artemis.

Silveira: Sada and Kolya, I got you both a welcoming gift. I thought of bringing something to eat but I think these are right up your alley, especially yours Sada. Let’s unwrap them.

Sadar/Aqila: Response

Winking Vitor joined in their efforts and in a few seconds they had uncovered the gifts.
The big one was a large lamp, with a round base at the bottom, and a pool about 1,6 mt high. The pole had a set of buttons around waist high, and it ended up with a caduceus symbol that lighten up when turned on

Vitor tipped his head to Sada.

Silveira: I thought this would suit you. I believe you recognize the symbol.

For Kolya he had obviously chosen something that was age appropriate. Although Vitor now realized that could also be the lamp's possible nemesis. A football.

Silveira: And that Kolya is a football, it’s an exact replica from the one that Portugal, my home place, used when they won their first major international competition.
I will set us up a holoprogram for us to play with it. Its a good exercise and someone has to teach you some proper games.

He winked again at Sada, he could have always offered to teach Kolya how to fire the ships weapons instead.

Sadar/Aqila: Response

Lyara/Tarkin: Response
