Lieutenant Siaxx Dvald was sitting at her deck, grateful for
the moments peace and quiet that she knew would soon end
but like all good things, it ended as the doors opened and
in came the Orion Lieutenant who really stood out against
her teal uniform.

Siaxx raised an eyebrow. "Lieutenant. Whats up?" she inquired.

Nuala had a wide grin on her face. "You promised to take me to the best restaurant on the Promenade when we got back." Nuala told the medical officer. "Oh, yes. there was to be lots of quality chocolate involved."

Siaxx chuckled softly as the reminder came to her. "Oh yes." she then grinned at the Orion woman. "Chocolate is a serious business," she commented to the other woman across from her. "I'm almost finished with this report, then I'll end it off to the base computer for delivery." as she let her fingers roam over the board before her.

Moments later she was done as a smile appeared on her face. "All done... " and with that she stood, she then logged out of the system before reaching for a black cassock which she then slipped on, the idea being so that when people looked at her, they would see a nameless and almost faceless traveler and not a member of the Starbase crew.

"The best place on the Starbase is Crums but.... for chocolate. you can get picky..."

"Afraid to be seen with an Orion?" Nuala asked Siaxx mirthfully.

"No. This is how I normaly dress.. it lets me blend in easier and thus I'm harder to remember.." the Bolian explained, she didn't lift the hood over her bald head. "I have issues with most men. It has nothing to do with you.."

"I have issues with men too but I don't wear a cloak." Nuala gently teased Siaxx. "What happens? Men start fist fights over you?" Nuala jokingly asked Siaxx.

"I sometimes prefer it." Siaxx commented. "If men do start... will you protect me?" she inquired with a smile

Nuala giggled, "No, I'll be the one screaming and running away."

Siaxx laughed as the two went down the hallway and around the corner, they walked into the transporter room and then beamed over to the Starbase.

Siaxx raised an eyebrow. "Lets swing by my place so I can drop off my duffel bag." she commented. "you gonna go back later for yours?"

"I wasn't on the star base an hour before they put me on the Yorktown. I don't know where my quarters are or whether my other luggage made it." She told the Bolian woman.

"Then we must fix that issue." Siaxx commented to the Orion woman. "Lets go see the quatermaster."

"Your a take charge kind of gal aren't you?" Daisy asked rhetorically. "I'd rather do food first. My quarters can wait." Daisy told Siaxx with a smile.

"Actually... I try not to." Siaxx admitted. "Sometimes... I find I have little choice but to move people along to get things done.... I do have a fair bit of command experiance, which is odd for medical officers."

"I'm not surprised that you would have command experience." Nuala told Siaxx. "I don't think anything you do do would surprise me."

Siaxx raised an eyebrow as she gave the Orion a look. "I think I can surprise you."

Nuala put her hands up "Okay Siaxx, I stand corrected." She told the Bolian while laughing.

Siaxx chuckled softly as she smiled at her companion. "For now at least... come on.. the chocolate is melting." the Bolian commented
