Ensign Kimonzi Lahl - Let's Go Exploring!
Nick Wilcox
((8 Forward, USS Octavia E Butler))
The young ensign walked into the on ship bar. She needed some time to unwind after the last mission, and she hadn’t had much time to explore her new ship during the mission as it seemed everything was going at Warp 9.9. She was wearing casual clothing as she was off duty, and had her long hair down, similar to how she wore it during the spy mission to Port Coray. She notice her immediate boss at the bar and figured now was a good a time as any to get some non-mission networking in. She strode over to where he was and sat down on the bar stool next to him.
Lahl: Hey Chief, mind if I sit here? ::She motioned for one of the bottles at the top of the shelf behind the bar from the bartender before turning back to Lieutenant Herrick.::
Herrick: Please.
Lahl: Man, that entire mission felt like I was running at Warp 9.9. You?
Herrick: (nodding) Definitely a mission for the books.
Lahl: Yeah, what are you going to do with the upcoming down time?
Herrick: Me? I’m taking a bit of time to explore the Dyson Ring. I’ve never seen the technology in person, and I’m also curious about the impact it had on their cultural development. It should make for a good excursion. How about you?
Lahl: I hadn’t thought too much about it, but looking at the technology sounds like a great time. Mind if I join you?
Kimonzi saw him pause for a second. She was about to jump back in tell him that she’d find something else to do but then he responded.
Herrick: (nodding) Sure.
Lahl: Great! Should be a good time. When do you want to go?
Herrick: Response
Lahl: Sounds like a plan.

Lahl leaned against the wall just outside the customs house while she waited for Lieutenant Herrick. Even though she had brought a backpack, she had somehow avoided the secondary inspection that the Lieutenant had found himself pulled into. Maybe it was her young face that kept the customs agents from pulling her aside. Turns out that looking young for her age came with some good benefits. She pushed herself off the wall as she spotted the tall human finally make it out of the customs house. She quickly fell in step with him and her height made it hard for people like Lieutenant Herrick to spot her in a crowd.
Lahl: Down here Lieutenant Herrick. ::She poked him in the arm:: Finally made it through the customs house did you?
Herrick: Response
Lahl: It’s my charming good looks and the fact that I look like just graduated from high school. ::She smiled up at him “innocently”::
Herrick: Response
Lahl: Anywho, shall we start exploring?
Herrick: Response
