[sb118-valkyrie] Ensign Arthur Strathmore - Our Continuing Session

[Arthur Strathmore]

((Counselor Strathmore's Office, Deck 5, USS Valkyrie-A)) 

Strathmore: Feeling something is how you know you’re conscious and alive.

Arthur smiled.

Koyama: I'm not really telling you much am I?

Strathmore: It’s perfectly alright.

Koyama: Let me start from the beginning. Did you read my previous counselors notes? The parts about the colony I was raised on?

Strathmore: Yes, Vuldaris IV.

Koyama: :: Looking away :: It's in trouble. All the sacrifices people have made might be for nothing if we can't find a solution for the atmospheric engine - ::she paused, realizing she got ahead of herself. 

Strathmore: Tell me more about this engine.

Koyama: I'm sorry. It's - well it's the heart of the colony project, It uses an energy field to moderate temperatures and selectively filter gasses. Its one large platform in space, rather than the typical arrays you'd need to terraform a planet as hostile as Vuldaris... And it, and the colony are in trouble, and it feels like I'm the only one who can fix it. 

Arthur quickly jotted down some more notes on his PADD before asking his next question.

Strathmore: Is this project really solely your responsibility?

Koyama: Response

Arthur leaned forward a bit.

Strathmore: Careful not to overburden yourself while working on this daunting project. Life is a team effort.

oO Prophets, I’m worried about the stress she’s putting herself under. Oo

Koyama: Response

Strathmore: Tell me about them.

Koyama: Response
