Luna walked down the hall with a very unhappy Cerenity. ” Today is you day off mommy why do I have to go hang out with Gill” she said. The child was not happy to have there usual routine ruined. ” Because mommy wants to have some time to get to know the adults on this ship” Luna said as the reached Gills quarters. Cerenity glared her her mom. ” You can knick I’m not pressing the chime” she said crossing her arms and glaring at Luna. ” Ok Luna said and pressed the chime.

Gil had been freaking out since he stupidly, and actually absentmindedly, agreed to babysit Cerenity for Luna. He’d been hard at work calibrating containment units when she’d pestered him about it, and when he’d had enough of her begging and just decided to say yes to it he knew he’d made a grave mistake. But now he had to get ready to entertain a small girl, which was far more daunting than facing a horde of flesh eating, underground, worms in his mind.

When the chime went off he’d already finished cleaning his quarters and had set up some snacks, healthy but fun snacks, for Cerenity as well as some interesting board games, and if that failed to impress he’d managed to get a hold of a broken engine from an old shuttle. If that didn’t keep her distracted nothing would.

He answered and smiled at them. “Hi guys! How’s it going?”

• Gil

” I’m sorry Gill she is a bit crankey” Luna said then leand in close so hopefully Cerenity wouldn’t hear. ” She might come around if you let her scan you with her training trycorder” Luna said with a smile. The teycorder had been a gift from the ships consuler and along with her neckes and braslet she never left home with out it. ” now Cerenity you be good and don’t cause trouble missy” Luna said then looked at Gill. ” Thank you so much for watching her I have not gotten a night out in so long it really means a lot to me. By you two have fun” Luna said before leaving.

” Cerenity did you know my daddy his name was Loki” cerenity asked as she stepped into gils qurters.

Jin’Lor had asked Gil about letting Jeane visit, something the teen had actually suggested in an attempt to get over his fears. It had been a surprise to have the engineer agree, but the geneticist was not about to argue. He just hoped his adopted son would not cause trouble or have a mental break down.

Upon arriving, he let Jeane press the chime. The brunette did not miss his son’s shaking, feathers ruffling slightly on his wings.

“It’ll be fine, son.” Jin’Lor told the silver haired boy. “Remember, he’s nothing like Zeke. He’s a good man that would never dream of harming you.”

Jeane grimaced and only offered a nod, fingers twisting the little trinket in his hair. He had been silent the entire walk here.

Gil frowned. “Loki? What sort of silly name is that?” Then he heard the bell chime again and he found Jin and Jeane. “Oh, hi! You just missed Luna. Cerenity’s here, we’ve got some fun things planned. I hope you like… err… a game called “scrabble?” It’s a word game. I know a lot of words so I thought it’d be fun. It was clear that Gil was on the verge of freaking out as the gravity of his situation sank in.

Yes, he very much wished he was back on the slave planet, fighting underground worms right now.

Cerenity ran our the Door and paraacticly tackled jeane.” Jeane ” she yelled happly.
Cerenity

Jeane was about to answer Gil when Cerenity ran into him. With a smile and a laugh, he hugged the small blond. “Hello to you too, Cerenity!” He answered, very happy to see his friend. “Uhm…I’ve never played scrabble, but if it’s a word game, I’m willing to try.”

Jin’Lor nodded to Gil. “Don’t let Jeane eat anything that’s not food, please.” He said before leaving.

Gil blinked in surprise as Jin left. “WHAT???” He tried to calm down and looked to the kids. “Want something to eat or drink?”

• Gil

Cerenity giggled as she turned to see Gill. ” yes please on I don’t eat birds” cerenity said.
Cerenity

Jeane smiled to Gil, wings stretching slightly. The teen was far more comfortable around the man with Cerenity there. “Sure, I’d like something to drink…I’m not hungry, though. Dad made sure I ate a full meal before coming here so I don’t eat something I shouldn’t…” He explained.

Gil looked at Cerenity’s wings and shrugged. “Yeah that seemed obvious. You got anything against pizza?” He then looks to Jeane. “What can I get you then, Jeane?”

• Gil

Cerenity grinned ” I love pepperoni pizza” she squealed. Happly then giggled at games stamens. ” He will be starving in like half an hour ” she said.
Cerenity

Jeane’s wings pressed against his back as he tried to focus on Cerenity’s happy nature. “I’ll just have something to drink.” He said, refusing to actually look at Gil.

Civilian Jeane Venneroe

Gil nodded and replicated some pepperoni pizza and a number of drinks. He recalled being warned that Jeane was a bit apprehensive around male crew members so he decided to give the boy as much space as he could as he set the pizza on the table. “Eat up, guys! What would you guys like to do? We could play a game or…” He shrugged and looked to the front door. “We could head down to the holodeck for some fun?”

• Gil

Cerenity pulled her training trycorder out of her pocket. ” can I scan both of you, also I want to go to the holodeck can we go see Helios’ crystal forest?” she asked sweetly. And she picked up a pice of pizza and happly eat it.
Cerenity

Jeane drank some water and nodded slowly before staring at the pizza with discomfort. “I’m fine with the holodeck. Uh…are you sure that trycorder isn’t going to electrocute us?” He asked, keeping his distance from Gil. “Dad says you’re an engineer, Gil, but I’ve seen you swipe things from places…are you also a thief?”

Civilian Jeane Venneroe

Gil couldn’t help but blush with embarrassment. “I… Grew up in a place where if you didn’t grab anything you could, there was a chance you wouldn’t survive… So now I can’t help but grab things that aren’t mine… I’m working with the counselor to stop doing it.” He grimaced and looked to Cerenity. “Holodeck? Alright. Let’s get going!”

• Gil

” no its a new trycorder Miss. Casela gave it to me for my birthday” cerenity said a little affected. ” but I want to scan you” she said to Gill holding her trycorder as he had not answered her first question.
Cerenity

Jeane tilted his head and smiled to Cerenity. “Okay, I trust you to scan me then.” He said and looked to Gil with a frown. “Where do you put all the stuff you steal? I don’t see any of it in here…is it in a closet or something?”

Civilian Jeane Venneroe

Gil was suddenly the one feeling uneasy as Jeane pressed him. “I… Well I…” He then looked to Cerenity. “How about we go to the holodeck?”

• Gil

” why won’t you let me scan you are you afraid of trycirders?” She asked sweetly.
Ensign Luna

“Let her scan you, Gil.” Jeane said as he got up and started opening every door of the place in search of all of Gil’s little stolen items.

Civilian Jeane Venneroe

Gil looked to Cerenity and shrugged. “Err… no. You can scan me if you want…” And among the list of things that the tricorder would read among the usual stuff one would find on a typical scan included:
Various bones that show signs of having been broken.
Several scars on his back from some form of energy weapon, most likely an energy whip.
Scars in the shape of a large animal bite on his right thigh.
And a nonfunctional device that was implanted below his left shoulder blade that appears to be some sort of tracking device.

Gil was already expecting some sort of reaction from the girl, every medical physical he had undertaken since joining Starfleet had resulted in a shocked and horrified doctor after all…

• Gil

” Are your bones easy to brake like mine and what are the scars on you back from?. also Jeane is going to get hurt” cerenity asked.
Cerenity

Jeane kept quiet as he looked around, basically avoiding getting scanned by Cerenity. It was not that he minded being scanned, but he did not wish to answer the questions he knew she would ask the moment the readings popped up. It was bad enough when doctors asked about all of his scars.

Civlian Jeane Venneroe

Gil shook his head. “No, I just had a very active childhood.” He forced a smile, trying to make light of the scars that reminded him of all the hardships he’d rather forget. Then he looked to Jeane as he opened one of the closets and a bolt of panic struck him. “Jeane! Please get out of there!” He dashed off after the boy.
The closet was mostly full of a number of miscellaneous spare parts from engineering, some medical hyposprays from medical, and emergency rations he’d pilfered from some of the shuttlecraft. All, again, a side effect of having lived on a world where you never knew what would be needed to keep you alive, or if you’d have food come tomorrow. If there was one thing Gil still couldn’t get over was how people in starfleet wanted for nothing. It was a stark contrast to the world he came from, where people fought for the smallest scraps of anything. Even as he reached Jeane he found himself looking away from the boy in shame. “I… ah… It’s a habit I’m trying to break. I’m sorry…”

• Gil

Jeane had not even noticed anything that fell out at all upon opening the door, his mind elsewhere and lost in old memories he would rather forget. The moment Gil spoke, though, he seemed to jerk back into reality and turned lavender eyes on the young man. “Oh…uh…what?” He asked and glanced around. “Where’s Cerenity?” The expression on his face was turning into pure fear, almost panic as he tried to spot the blond girl.

” Rarw” cerenity said jumping up and taking the boy on the back between his wing. She giggles and sat on the ground behind him holding up her trycorder to scan him.
