((Docks, Deep Space 33))
The viewport looking out over the berthed Khitomer gave a great view of the stressed and damaged hull from her recent expedition. Nathan stood there for a moment looking over all of the recently acquired markings. He missed being on a ship that saw action. Being the Chief Engineer on a diplomatic vessel felt very…sterile. But sometimes that was a good thing.
He looked down at his PADD and double checked the time he had scheduled his appointment with Talia. An appointment that he had scheduled. Rescheduled. Then cancelled. Then scheduled again. He was honestly surprised that she was even still willing to see him after so much headache. He looked down at his Ops Gold prosthetic and tapped at the little access hatch built into the forearm.
Richards: Time to get a check-up little buddy.
((Main Sickbay, USS Khitomer))
Stepping into the Khitomer’s sickbay, Nathan looked around. For the most part, it felt like just about any other sickbay. But there was something…something that felt different. He couldn’t put his finger on it, but maybe it had something to do with the Khitomer’s close proximity to the frontline of the conflict with the Lattice Alliance. Maybe he would never really know. There was a slight rattle from his prosthetic that reminded him that he was there for a specific reason, and not just to admire the architecture.
Richards: Talia? Er...Doctor Ohnari?
He took a couple steps further into the room before finally hearing a response.
Ohnari: Response
Richards: Hey, Talia! Uh, Nathan Richards for my...very belated appointment.
Ohnari: Response
He ran his hand through his hair and chuckled before shrugging.
Richards: At least I kept and showed up for this one, right?
Ohnari: Response
