Posted by Lieutenant Junior Grade Ella Lokaa (Scientist) in Departmental Head check in
Ella, refreshingly surprised and elated from the back off her appointment with the counsellor was certainly looking at her surroundings with a little less red. Though everything was still the same, new ship, new crew, people gawking at her like the new toy to play with but her mood had shifted and she felt lighter on her feet which carried her towards the science labs where she hoped to keep up the good mood when meeting her new departmental head.

Entering the main science lab she looked around, it wasn’t so busy she couldn’t think but people milled about going about their daily routines, one thing she liked about scientists was that they usually never paid anyone particularly her too much attention. Which for someone who usually was used to being looked at was another refreshing quality about being a science officer. Continuing her search for Lieutenant V’alura Belmont Ella smiled and greeted her new peer group.

Ella didn’t have to search for long. V’alura stood in science lab one, pouring over test results while taking notes on her PaDD. Upon hearing Ella’s approach she glanced up, then properly look up to smile at Ella, “Hello!” V’alura greeted, her voice full of warmth. There was a slight accent to her words, a faint twang reminiscent of a western American accent. “You must be our newest officer. I’m sure you know this already but I’m Lt. V’alura Belmont. It’s a pleasure to make your acquaintance!”

Once pleasantries were said and done, V’alura motioned towards her office door. “Let’s head into my office, you hungry at all? Thirsty?” Her office was long and rectangular, curved slightly with the shape of the ship and extended to either side of the door. A large window lay across from the front door and below it an open storage container overloaded with spare computer parts and broken PaDDs. The right side of the room was a dedicated lab complete with table, sink, emergency kits and various consoles displaying pages of complex computer code or running simulations.

To the left was V’alura’s desk settled against the right-side wall and the under a glass window that revealed the science suit on the other side. There was a replicator set into the wall behind the desk, next to it a framed vintage movie poster. The left hand corner displayed a wide twenty gallon tank home to a fiery red beta fish. Inside his tank a miniature volcano whose top just poked out of the water line. Small albino shrimp and plain fish darted about, avoiding their flashy tank mate. Originally she wanted to put one of her pet tarantulas into the office but given the high percentage of arachnophobia amongst her scientists. . . a fish was the better option.

Her desk held her personal console, a dozen PaDDs, and a framed picture of herself with her human mother. V’alura fiddled with the replicator, creating a glass of tea for herself, then whatever item Ella may have requested.

Lt JG V’alura Belmont, CSO
