Lt. Shimisi: Tastes and cultures

USS Constitution-B – Holodeck

Shimisi was starting to enjoy the party in regards of what it meant on a social level. Usually he can't meet so many people of different departments off duty as the ship was so big and everyone has their own things to do on a personal level.
Shimisi: I must confess that since I've become part of this crew, my social interactions in these events have improved.
Georgio: Oh what's wonderful honey. Is the crew rubbing off on you?
He wasn't sure how to interpret that. He hasn't rubbed anyone, more than the usual bumping while working on jefferies tubes or other cramped spaces.
Mark: That’s good, right?
Maramox: Yeah, what can I expect to change in me?
Mark shrugged towards Maramox.
Mark: I think it’s an ‘everyone in their own time’ sort of thing?
Shimisi: As everyone follows her style, it's hard not to mingle and loosen up. I still find it hard to do it on duty as I have years of following rules, be careful to stand up challenging the way things are and family responsibilities.
Georgio: Oh honey you'll find your own way in the dynamic. Don't you worry about it.
Maramox: This crew is a team and I’m sure we’ll have each other’s backs.
Mark: Exactly!
Shimisi: It comes with the planet and species. But don't worry, I'm starfleet now, not just a Pygorian.
Saying not just a Pygorian was a strange thing to say for him, but he wanted to make it clear that he's evolving from his previous self.
Georgio: Of course you are both. ::He looked confused.:: Is that a biological expression?
Maramox: I believe it’s a… Alliance expression. I think.
Shimisi: You might be right. Definitions vary with time.
Georgio: Oh, maybe it's because as Hologram I have no ingrained culture. Or is my culture fashion and beauty? ::He grinned.::
Maramox: I think that yes, you get to define what it means for you. ::A big smile back from Maramox to Georgio.::
Mark: I think Maramox is right, you get to choose whatever you want!
Shimisi: This is becoming more a philosophical question, but we're at a party. Let's have drinks and mingle.
As the drinks were served, he drank, raising a bit his mask to do it.
Georgio: Oh this.. is this what fruit tastes like? Oh how marvelous! Have you tried it yet cupcake? ::He looked at Mark.::
Mark: I have not. At least not yours, not yet. But I kinda remember what fruit tastes like…
Maramox: I would say fruits are some of the best foods you can eat. If you have the biology to eat them that is. I know Denobulans can enjoy some very hard fruits that others can’t.
Shimisi: Your gain, our loss.
Georgio: ?
Mark: From what I remember they are sweet and delicious.
Maramox: I’ll see if we can find a way to recreate the tastes for you two. ::They smiled so genuinely.::
Shimisi: I'm sure we can get something. It'll be an amazing experience!
Georgio: ?
Mark: Oooh, that’s sour! And sweet! And… ::and for a moment his face wrinkled in dismay:: Grandpa… ::he growled in mock outrage.::
Shimisi: what is it?
Georgio/Maramox: ?
Mark: I’m pretty sure the real version of this is alcoholic.
Shimisi: Lucky that that is not and you're not affected... you're not affected, right?
Georgio/Maramox: ?
He took another tentative sip.
Mark: It’s actually really tasty…
Shimisi: Be careful, you don't get too used to it!
He chuckled a bit and looked around to the rest of the aseembled crew.
Georgio/Maramox: ?
As he looked around he recognized a mask next to the red dress of Ba'el. He noticed a moment where Mec looked to the group direction and Mingxing waved at them to come to the group.
Ba'el/Mec/S'jenes: Response
