Lt JG Noemi Lim - Girl's best friend

[Noemi Lim]

((Sickbay - Deep Space 224))

It was useful to have access to a set of senses that she did not have access to on her own. However it had also been incredibly nauseating at the start, the effect coming across like a holodeck sim glitching out or what she’d heard described as an acid trip.

Lim: Electrical fields and some airborne chemicals and gases, which can be a bit disorienting to get through the bond.

Drex: Sounds like a party in your head, ::He murmured. Then, with a gentler tone:: But this way the two of you can manage to catch trouble before the rest of us even notice the room’s changed.

Lim: Mmm. Not everything, of course. ::She gave Drex a contented smile.:: But certainly more things than I can pick up.

Drex shifted his weight, giving Mue a respectful glance.

Drex: If so, I’ll hold his instincts in pretty high regard. ::He turned to the meicora with a small, approving smile:: Sounds like you’re entirely flaw-free.

Noemi giggled as Mue tilted his head up and wiggled his whiskers in pleasure as he radiated a smug, self-pleased air.

Mue: ~Smart person.~ 

Lim: He certainly thinks so.

Drex: I’m already learning more than I expected, so surprise me.

Lim: Well then... Meicora are comparable in intelligence to Earth cetaceans and corvids by default, though bonding does change things. 

Drex: Response

Lim: I’m not a scientist, but from what I understand it’s more due to exposure to new concepts and thought processes than an actual biological change.

Drex: Response

She reached over and scratched behind Mue’s ears.

Lim: Like once he was exposed to the concept of a door and how it worked he now knows how to open one. :: Softly.:: He recognized the alert to abandon the Eagle and knew where and how to evacuate on one of the escape pods.

It had been terrifying afterwards to know how close she had been to losing him. Only the comfort of feeling him in the back of her mind and knowing he was fine had kept the breakdown at bay.

Mue cheeped at her and wrapped a whisker around her hand in comfort.

Mue: ~Trained. Safe now.~

Drex: Response
