The trill accepted the device and gave it a quick examination.

“Can you still hear me?” he asked her, watching her expression with unabashed curiosity. Though he returned it to her, he wished he could really get a chance to test it out, but she was on duty and he wasn’t trying to interfere too too much. “I have a friend onboard, his name’s Noah. He’s a bit of a computer whiz. I bet if anyone can set it to echo-locate he can.” Convincing him to do it, might be another matter, though. For a moment, the Cadet wondered if his friend had made it aboard yet, and how that was going.

“No allergies that I know of, though,” he said, finally answering her question. “I spent a few months as a shuttle pilot before I joined StarFleet, I’ve seen a lot of people get space sick,” Ben added with a laugh. “I think I’ll be good. Personally, I think I was born to live up here on a starship.”

“Yes, I can hear you through my other one,” said Carmen, gesturing to her other ear which sported an identical device. “I’d be down with experimenting a little, if your friend doesn’t mind.”

She easily returned the device to it’s spot once again, before returning to the examination. “I know that this is a sensitive topic for some Trill, but as your doctor it’s important that I know if you ever consider being Joined. Are you currently considering it?”

Benem shrugged, “Not really. It’s not like I grew up on the Homeworld. I doubt the Symbiosis Committee would even accept my application.” He decided to not mention his estranged mother, who had been joined, and abandoned both he and his father shortly after giving birth. Though he knew that, somehow, he was supposed to understand, the boy in him often wondered why he wasn’t enough for his mother. Was a worm really that much more important? Noting that he’d gone momentarily quiet, he added “So, no, not currently considering it…”
