(( Holodeck, Deck 7, USS Chin'toka ))

Is’Kah arrived at the holodeck just as the doors were closing, catching a glimpse of yellow hair. After opening the door, zha entered, taking in the setting. The cloud cover was a nice touch, adding ambiance to the scene. It reminded the petite hybrid of an autumn day in San Francisco. Approaching the court, zha heard Ada talking

Ada: Great program, Rory.

She set her bag down and started stretching.

Is'Kah: Indeed.

Wright: Response

S'Rorr: Hello hello! Thanks for coming, I ::distracted by Ada:: .. think.. that's a very unique and interesting outfit. Striking.

Ada: Hm?

Is’Kah looked over Ada’s outfit. It was certainly colorful with the bright pink top, teal skirt, white shoes, and bright yellow hair. The hybrid realized that zhen own was rather drab, Starfleet PT gear failing to hold up to Azura’s style.

Ada: Oh! ::She laughed:: Thank you. I like to have fun with it. Besides it's a psychological game, after all.

Azura went back to stretching.

Is'Kah: If I had known we were going for a 2280s look, I would have done my hair in hot pink and ordered something made from recliner fabric. I trust you’ve been well, Rory.

Wright: Response

The Caitian rested his racket over his shoulder.

S'Rorr: I've been okay. Drowning in work, you know, aren't we all?

Is'Kah: Quite true. Shore leave is more active for my department due to all the shore patrol duties.

Wright: Response

Ada: There's always work to go around. I'm bummed that Kim left, I was looking forward to working under her. Also I'm bummed because as the most senior officer in the department, I have to pick up her work until Serala names a new Chief.

There was a hint in Ada’s body language that suggested to Is’Kah that she wanted to remain a specialist.

Is'Kah: Alas, the needs of the fleet and all that. I would have preferred to give Kim a going-away party, but the transfer happened so quickly.

S'Rorr/Wright: Response

Ada: Do y'all play tennis regularly?

Is'Kah: I haven’t played since my first year in the Academy, where a pair of Vulcans proposed to wipe the court with me.

S'Rorr/Wright: Response

Ada:  I used to, but I'm out of practice! This'll be good exercise. I'm looking forward to a good sweat.

Is'Kah: That’s it. I’m on Azura’s team. Maybe this time, I’ll beat S’Rorr and Hana!

S'Rorr/Wright: Response

Is'Kah: Azura, do you want front or back?

Zha started walking to one side of the court, giving zhen racket a few test swings.

Ada / S'Rorr / Wright: Response

Glancing around, Is’Kah lowered zhen voice to a whisper.

Is'Kah: Let’s use my height to our advantage. I’ll deliberately miss the first couple of times while you return the ball, saving us. They will start targeting me, and that’s when I strike.

Ada / S'Rorr / Wright: Response

The hybrid took zhen position, ready to pounce.

Is'Kah: Ready.

Ada / S'Rorr / Wright: Response
