Lt. JG L'rann & M'Rish - Getting Out
Aaron Schimmel
((Cyrithra Forest, Palanon))
L’rann was glad to have some time off, despite all the work being done to repair the system after the rogue planet. One thing was for sure, she was glad she didn’t have to deal with some things the away teams dealt with, according to scuttlebutt. Even the Admiral and the bridge crew got caught up in some temporal shenanigans. Things like that made L’rann glad she stayed a JG. She had enough to deal with already.
And of course, she had M’Rish, now.
It was hard to imagine L’rann had taken custody and caring for the girl over a year and a half ago. In that time, M’Rish had changed. She had gone from a shy, malnourished, undereducated child to a healthy, growing girl. Damn L’rann’s sister; she had been a drug addict and neglected M’Rish. Fortunately, during one of T’rell’s sober moments, she had the foresight to name L’rann carer if something happened to her. Which it did; T’rell went back into rehab, and M’Rish was placed in L’rann’s custody. Eventually, L’rann applied for legal guardianship over M’Rish, something her sister wasn’t too happy about, but understood.
L’rann was glad to have some shore leave at the moment and decided to spend it on Palanon at the centenarian party Nkai set up. She brought M’Rish along, of course, and the girl was delighted. So much food around, a pond to swim in, and some of the other crew had brought their children as well, so M’Rish had playmates.
The pair had been mulling around the food tables, M’Rish eyeing every sweet she saw, but L’rann wanted her to eat more than just those. As they were trawling the tables, L’rann heard a voice call her name nearby. She had to look down to see it was Lt. Commander Alieth, Chief Science Officer.
Alieth: Lieutenant L'rann, it has been a long time since we last met.
L’rann: Hello, Commander. Nice to see you.
Finch/T’Lar: Response
The Vulcan nodded briefly as she poured water, kept at the perfect temperature, into her cup.
Alieth: I see. ::turning to her two companions:: Let me introduce you to two of the new additions to the crew, Ensigns Finch and T'lar.
L’rann: Hello.
Finch/T’Lar: Response
Alieth: I recall that in Darime you talked about being the caretaker of an infant from your family. Did she accompany you to the surface today?
L’rann: Yes. She was just here…
L’rann briefly wondered if Alieth had gone blind, as M’Rish was right next to L’rann, but a glance around failed to spot her niece. Looking further, she saw the girl farther down the table, looking at some bread varieties.
L’rann: M’Rish! Come here, I’d like you to meet some people.
She called down the table, to which M’Rish’s head swiveled to look. With a piece of bread in her mouth, and another in her hand, M’Rish approached, standing close to and a little behind L’rann.
L’rann: M’Rish, this is Commander Alieth, and Ensigns Finch and T’Lar. They work on the ship like me.
M’Rish: Hello. ::She said quietly.::
Alieth/Finch/T’Lar: Response
L’rann: Sorry, she’s quite shy and wary of strangers; even if she’s seen them around the ship.
Alieth/Finch/T’Lar: Response
L’rann: It’s a long story. How much time do you have?
Alieth/Finch/T’Lar: Response
