(( Tengoku No Mon, Starbase 104 - Backsim ))
She felt a little awkward though because she didn't really know
where she would set that first question. She thought about it
though. She always had so many questions but now that she could
ask them, none of them wanted to pop back into her mind.
Davis: :: chuckling :: Yeah, that’s a good place to start. Let’s
see…
She watched him take another bite of the nigiri and then just
blurted out the first thing she thought of.
Queen: What is your favorite food?
Davis: Heh, that’s a natural place to start. Hard to say. But,
sushi is definitely my favorite meal for special occasions. But
overall? Hm...
Queen: We can work up to other things, just have to start
somewhere, right? ::She waggled her head in the smiling manner.::
I figured we go back and forth.
Davis: :: smiling broadly :: Yes, I like that idea. Ok, so I think
I figured it out: my favorite food, overall, is my lentil chili.
Queen: I don't think I know that. What is it?
Davis: Ah! It’s a stew made primarily from small, round legumes.
It’s heavily spiced, at least for human food.
Queen: Ah. Maybe we can have it sometime. Alright, your turn.
Davis: I’d love to make it for you. Ok, my turn. After you solve
your people’s energy crisis, what do you want from life?
The news that he would cook for her made her feel warm and ...
fuzzy. Was that fuzzy? Felt like fuzzy. Though his question
brought her back to the present and a more serious footing.
Couldn't he have asked for her favorite color? If she liked
swimming or even which Star Constellation she thought was pretty?
Queen: That is a ... big question.
Davis: I like big questions.
The Linara leaned back and let out some air as her mind tried to
find an answer.
Queen: To be honest with you, I never thought about that. I am not
used to look far into the future. ::After all it could have ended
any day. Even though she had been here for a while already she
still had to get used to having more chances of having a tomorrow,
a next week, month or even year. But she did have one
realisation.:: I wouldn't want to follow my parents' footsteps of
Engineering. While I feel it's my duty to help now, I don't really
have interest in the field. Other than that I don't know what
options I even have. So I would most likely look around, try out
things here and there to find what I want to do. Maybe it's music,
maybe it's dance, or breaking things for stress release. Maybe
none of the above or all of it. I don't know yet.
The way she talked with Lazarus, was a kind of talk she had with
nobody else. She tended to be direct, abrasive, and mostly
confused about what was expected in conservations but with him
things were different. It was easy. Well mostly. Sometimes it was
awkward but she still knew she could just be herself and he didn't
judge her for it. Or if he did, he didn't show it. So when she was
with him, she talked a lot more than usual. It felt strange to be
that open, but also good.
Davis: Yeah, I could totally see that for you.
Queen: Which part? Where I break things or the one where I don't
know yet if I may not actually do it?
She waggled her head back and forth with what sounded like an
attempt to laugh.
Davis: response
Queen: I have to admit that I have realized I slacked a lot since
coming on board. Getting used to the new environment, people,
lifestyle ... it was overwhelming. It still is. But as I mentioned
I started to get back to my mission. But I also wish to find my
place in this society. And I will work on figuring that out and
will find the answer to what to do in the progress.
Davis: response
Queen: My turn then, you are an attractive successful man. Why
were you not mated before we met?
She knew why she had not, but he lived her in relative safety.
While Starfleet was not the safest place in the universe it was
better than many other places. Were there other reasons for him to
not seek a mate?
Davis: response
