“But over such a long life you get a very unique perspective on history and the universe, I would imagine.” After taking a sip of her tea, Revna set the cup down. “Hmmm well I don’t know about anyone else, but for me it seemed at the time the next logical choice. Before I was doing this, I was a trauma counselor for Star Fleet. I spent a lot of time working with people to find a way to keep going forward, people who couldn’t talk to anyone else for one reason or another. A year and a half ago,” had it really been that short a time…and that long ago? “I was injured in the line of duty. After my recovery I decided to resign my commission and try something else. There was an opening in the diplomatic corp and I took it.”

“I can see the connection actually, between counseling and diplomacy. They don’t seem that different. Listening and offering understanding.” He sipped his drink. “Same skills, a lot more reputation as a diplomat. So they just sent you out to the delta quadrant?”

Revna nodded, “Pretty much. Ambassador S’Tek needed someone and our files were sent out, he made his choice and…”
“Excuse me,” Walker said as he walked up to the table. He had stopped by for a quick drink after the end of his shift. In his hand he carried a rocks glass with a single large ice cube, and a pour of whiskey in it. “Ma’am,” he said with a nod towards McKenzie.
Revna paused in her reply and nodded to Walker. “Hello Chief, join us.” There was always plenty of room at the table. And if there wasn’t Revna would find a bigger table. It was how she was raised.
“Absolutely, the more the merrier.” Aevin smiled.
“I hope I’m not interrupting, but I wanted to take a second Lieutenant to welcome you to the Manhattan, and say it’s nice to have a competent pilot at the helm again. I’ll just say that the ship was getting pretty rocky before you showed up,” he said with a slight chuckle.

Aevin shared in the chuckle. “Happy to be aboard Chief. I’ll keep the turbulence to a minimum for you. Do join us, if you’re so inclined.”
-Aevin
“Thanks for the invitation,” Walker said as he pulled out a chair and took a seat. “I hope I wasn’t interrupting anything interesting.”
Taking a sip of his drink he looked between the two of them.

Revna grinned, “We were discussing safe escape routes and how we ended up out here in the delta. So what about it Chief? How did you end up out here?”
