(( Jalana's office ))
Even after arrival at Fleet Yards Jalana would still have a bunch
to do before she could go and have fun for herself. Reports to be
compiled and sent, communications with the Fleet yard, submission
of plans, calling various people, checking on her crew and and
and. Always a lot on that to do list that someone had decided was
part of the job. At least Dizzy took some stuff off her hands as
part of his own duties.
Getting up she moved to the replicator and got herself another cup
of Jestral tea when she heard the door buzzer. Peeking around the
corner she saw a black shadow through the milky glass doors. Fully
black... lighter top. She smiled, this must be the new arrival.
She took her cup and moved into the main room.
Rajel: Come on in.
The door hissed open as Jalana placed her cup onto the coffee
table. She brushed her naturally cold hands over her skant skirt
as she observed the woman. Surprisingly, she was smaller than
Jalana, that did not happen often. She seemed to be slightly
nervous, surprise... she couldn't feel it but she knew how to read
body language, even a bit better thanks to Arlen compared to just
Jalana.
Brexis: Uh, hi. ::Clearing her throat:: I am Lieutenant Junior
Grade Charlotte Brexis. Your new Intelligence Officer.
Rajel: ::stepping forward she reached out a hand and smiled as she
approached the woman.:: Hi nice to meet you, Charlotte. Please
call me Jalana.
There it was. She had not expected that, Jalana knew. No matter
how much Charlotte tried to keep her face straight there still was
a little hint of being taken a back.
Brexis: Wait… What? ::With genuine confusion:: You want me to
address you how?
Rajel: ::laughing:: Jalana. It's my name you know?
Brexis: Response
Rajel: ::waved slightly:: Way too formal. I mean it doesn't stop
some of the crew to still do it, but I prefer if you wouldn't.
Please sit, would you like something to drink? ::She gestured at
the replicator:: feel free to serve yourself.
Brexis: Response
The Trill lowered herself on the beanbag chair and pulled her feet
up onto it to fold her legs under. Just then it may be clear that
she was barefoot, her uniform boots stood to the side.
Rajel: I hope you had a pleasant flight to this far out part of
the Galaxy. Usually we would welcome you on Starbase 104 further
south, but we took some damage we need repaired.
Brexis: Response
Rajel: So how about you tell me something about you I can't read
in your file? I like to get to know my crew beyond what Starfleet
squeezed out of you.
She grinned and picked up her cup to take a sip. The scent of the
Betazoid Jestral tea filled the room and her nose.
Brexis: Response
