: : : : Burnett looked inquisitive, the color in his face draining back to a normal fleshy tone as his embarrassment and aggravation passed. He waved to one of the wait staff, clearly indicating he wanted another drink. Whether or not they even recalled what he had had in the first place was another matter entirely.

: : : : : : Dan turns his head as a sudden movement in the corner of his eye catches his attention. Dan sees the chief engineer start suddenly as if awakened.

"You know, when it comes to finding people fasinating, I always find the lounge on every star ship provides the best subjects for study," she said laughing a little.

: "Honestly I was recruited in a way. I had an errand and the Federation embassy and ended up talking briefly with a captain who was visiting. He suggested Starfleet to me since I had no interest in the things my family did. A week later I received a package with notification of my test date for entry as well as what the requirements were and what was expected of cadet's."

"Ah, I see. Have you found any specialty that you particularly enjoy or are good at?"
