Trax sat there for a good bit before he noticed he had messages again on his terminal. “Great more mail.” As he sighed hard and stood up and moved towards his desk and took a seat there as he tapped the terminal. “Computer organize messages in time and date order please.” Trax asked the computer. The computer beeped as the computer did what was asked of it as he got comfortable of another onslot of mail from his mother. As the computer beeped as the list came up on the monitor. He was shocked he did not have any emails from his mother. But a few from his brothers and other friends and a few junk mail spam like resort adverts from Pacifica and Risa. Along with other adverts to pleasure planets. Ferengi adverts about umox and Orion slave girl strip clubs which he deleted quickly enough and blocked them from sending any more questionable adverts again. As he opened the messages and started listening to them all one by one.
Mostly the messages from his brothers are wanting to get together when Trax’s vacation falls so they can catch up. mostly the same story’s from his friends as well. A couple of great deals on Accommodations and stay packages from Risa and Pacifica. He made notes of them all and closed the computer channel closed he would answer them all later after getting some rest and eat. He got up and took a shower and cleaned up and then headed off to the main lounge are to get some dinner and maybe a drink or two. As he tried to relax a bit but a quick note from the doctor telling him he would be working yet again. Instead of having the time off. Trax Sighed hard as he still planned on his evening out was cut a bit shorter but he was still going to relax. He left his cabin and headed off to the forward lounge. The walk was rather quiet as he closed on his destination as he entered there was light music playing.
“Wow!” He stated to himself as a light whisper came from his lips. He could not believe how subdued the lounge was this evening. As he made his way towards the forward viewports as he took a seat at a table in the corner of the lounge and started to stare out into the coldness of space as the ship moved slowly through the desolate region. He missed having a companion and a lover for company and companionship. But he was dealing the best he could granted there was little or no concerns or issues with bigotry or understanding but sometimes you got that one person or race that still were part of the stone ages and wanted to kill me then to understand and move on. Luckily he was lucky so far nothing of that nature has ever happened on the Ark Angel.
As the waitress came over and asked what Trax wished from the bar and replicator or kitchen. “What can I get you this evening Ensign Trax.” The Waitress asked casually to the man. She knew him well enough that she knew he would not mind in addressing him in that manner. “Well, Lets See, 2 Ferengi Star Dusters. A Double Cheeseburger and fries with extra cheese and fries. And A large chocolate shake fairly thick please.” Trax ordered quickly. “Please call me Trax! we don’t need to be formal Trixey!” Trax commented with a small faltering smile. “Got ya Doc.” As she skipped off an placed the order and got the drinks ready. She knew he wanted the shake with the meal so that he could use the shake to dip his fries into sometimes.
As he refocused on the windows to space once again. As he got lost into the darkness of the vast unexplored space beyond them. He lost track of time as he felt drawn to an odd color spot of space in the distance he did not know why but he felt a connection. As he snapped to as the waitress came by with the drinks as he took a sip of the star duster she placed in front of him. She was going to ask if he was ok but she knew he was ok. He was just deep in thought as she left to gather the meal that was finally ready. He took a large sip of the drink he felt the sweet drink fill the void he had but he knew it was temporary. He felt the waitress return and place the food in front of him.
“If you need anything Trax let me know I will get it right away.” She commented quickly and tapped the man on the shoulder to let him know he was not alone. As he started to focus on his burger and fries and the massive chocolate shake. He took his time and ate casually. As he looked back out of the window again. As he took another drink of his stardust.
Ensign Trax Suder - JO Doctor
Simon entered the lounge not long after he had finished his mandatory examinations and reporting for duty. He had a few hours before his shift started, so he knew he had some time to get something to eat and see if he could meet any more of the crew. He noticed the doctor glancing out the window, and not many other people, and thought it would be a good chance to introduce himself.
“Big, isn’t it,” Simon said simply. “Mind if I join you? I’m new here, The Name’s Simon - Ensign Simon Starr, I’ve recently been posted aboard as a new security officer,” he said, offering out a hand to shake as he made his introduction.
Seeing the medical colours of the uniform, he remembered the first conversation that he had in the lounge on his cadet cruise also happened to be with a doctor, who also enjoyed the view. “One of my colleagues at the academy used to paint the view out of the ship from the longue - the first person I spoke to on the ship in a social situation, and then we graduated on the same day,” he said, thinking about how Ensign Woolley was holding up on his posting on the Magellan.
