As soon as the Memorial returned to Starebase 243 she docked and repair teams started patching her up though she only took minor damage Tralla wanted the ship in perfect shape meanwhile The Tribunal for Ensign Jean-François Chéreau was held and dealt with the Young Ensign getting sent off to a Penal colony

Now it was time for the crew of the memorial to get some newcomers and await their next orders

Sivith was happy to be getting off a starbase and back into the skies so to speak. He loved travelling and seeking and seeing new places and people and he was a little apprehensive since this would be his first department Head position. He went down the halls and to the beach where the ship docked.

It was amazing and he couldn’t wait to get on. He has been studying the schematics since he found out he was going there. Walking up to the security Officer outside the hatch Sivith handed him his orders to board the ship and waited.

Zoz-Eki-Ion.Floated outside the airlock to the Starbase with a half dozen padds in tenticles checking to be sure the people trying to board actually had clearance and orders to do so. As a Argozonite multi tasking was something that came natually and with 4 eyes looking in all directions the squidlike floating being was well suited to this type of guard duty. The 20 tenticles held up padds. Directed people to various places, and handed out orientation kits to the new crew coming aboard. S/he was of course wearing a yellow gold and black kilt by way of uniform to indicate s/he was Security. The kilt held on by a belt with many small pockets a phaser and a combadge.

As s/he was approached s/he and the security guard standing duty with her/m looked the new arrival over. ” Welcome to the Memorial’s security check in. State your business please.” Zoz stated with a air of authority that was mostly bluster given her/m Rank as Ensign as indicated by the pips on her/m belt.

Ensign Zoz-Eki-Ion. Security.

“Hello. I am Sivith Ch’shriaqes. Lieutenant Junior Grade. I am the new Chief Engineer. I am very intrigued as to what you are Ensign. I do not think I have seen one of your kind before. I hope you don’t mind me asking?”

Ensign Sivith Ch’shriaqes, CE

Zoz checked her/m padd made a notation on another notation on another padd and blinked at sivith. “Sivith is your use name. You are of clan Ch’shriaqes. You are Andorian.
And records indicate you are male. Is that correct lieutenant?” Zoz asked using the proffesional voice s/he had spent hours perfecting.
S/he then went on. “My species is designated as Argozonite. By the Federation. It is derived from a Earth Mythology known as Greek. The comparrison being made has to do with being travellers and wanderers who set out on voyages with definate goals. Our term for ourselves was felt to be to confusing for humanoids to comprehend so accepting what You designate us as seemed preferable. There are other issues with language that for a long time made more than simple conversations difficult. So Few of my species are within Federation space. My particular Homeship chose to accept Federation association thus opening the portal to exploring humanoid culture in greater detail.
It was too exciting a prospect to decline. I am designated as Zoz-Eki-Ion.” S/he said as she made gestures with her/m tenticles to emphasize her/m speach in a manner that would cause A Italian to swell with natioal pride.

Ensign Zoz-Eki-Ion. Security.

“Ah. Yes. I am all that and Male. Thank you for telling me Ensign Zoz-Eki-lon. I hope we can get to know each other more.”

Lt. J.G. Sivith Ch’shriaqes, CE

Zoz blinked, “It is likely that we will have oppurtunity as voyages of exploration and adventure tend to take longer than voyages between two fixed and known locations. Thus presenting oppurtunity and circumstance favorable to social interaction. It is noted that Andorians traditionally carry a melee weapon as part of their cultural norm. While it is not my intend to deprive you of your heritage I must ask that you secure any such weapon till command level personel sanction you to carry it. If you have no suitable container to enclose it in I offer you my service as it’s guadian protector till it is properly sanctioned..” S/he said. “Should That prove unsatisfactory I will not be able to clear you to pass till I have discussed the matter with my immediate superior.”, and Zoz waited for a responce.

Ensign Zoz-Eki-Ion. Security.

“I have no problems with releasing my knife into your care Ensign.” He deftly undid a strap with one hand and pulled the knife, sheath and all, from his waist belt and handed it over offering the handle.

Zoz was amazed as that was much easier than expected. Pride in heritage was a primary source of problems between humanoids was the current running theory amungst her kind. . This posting was already providing interesting date to discuss. “Thank you sir.” S/he responded as she took possesion of the Knife. “As long as you carry no other weapons concealed or otherwise you are now clear to board Lieutenant. “, Zoz stated motioning to the other security guard whe was watching a portable scanner. Set up to scan those who passed. It was not normal proceedure but Zoz was very enthusiastic about her/m job.

Lt. Zero passed by in the hall watching the security do there thing he was working on a padd. He saw a few things the ensigns can do to speed things up and clear things faster.

Lt. Zero (CTO)

“Thank you Ensign. Whom do I see about my dagger once things are finalized?”

Lt kg Sivith Ch’shriaqes CE

“It will be in the security office lock up Lieutenant. “, Zoz replied to the new CE. “It is my hope that you find gainful endevers and meritonius serves on the ship sir. Welcome abourd the Memorial.”, and indicated with several tenticles that Sivith could now board.

Ensign Zoz-Eki-Ion. Security.

Sivith bowed. “Thank you again. I look forward to meeting you again.” With that he picked up his bags and started walking into the ship.

Jade arrived not long after. She had, had a difficult morning. She had dripped Mia off with her mothers ship. Jade and Mia had decided ti do a trial period of the next mission to see if Mia preferred life on earth to life on a star ship. it had been difficult but after the last mission Jade decided it would be safer for Mia, but if Mia wanted to come back with her after that, then Jade would honour her daughter’s request.

Jade reached the airlock and smiled at Zoz-Eki-Ion warmly. She couldn’t help but be impressed the ensign’s ability to multitask so easily. She wished she had that ability “Hello Ensign. How have you been?” she asked warmly.

Cmdr Jones (XO)

Zoz looked up the Commander and ran a 5 point scan to verify she was who she seemed to be. The Dominion war and the replacement of senior staff by imposters had caused quite a bit of paranoia in security proceedures. While things had relaxed since the war ended Zoz was of the opinion th7at the relaxing of security measures caused a major threat in and of itself.
“Welcome back Commander. I am pleased at the state of my being. I hope you are also doing well. You are confirmed to be Commander Jade Jones. First officer of this vessel.
It is confirmed you carry no detectable contraband as well.”, Zoz made the required entries into her/m padd. She was quite satisfied with using I in what s/he believed was the proper manner. Being away from her/m own species made her much more aware of her individuality and distinctive self then s/he was used too being.

Ensign Zoz-Eki-Ion. Security.

Jade smiled “That’s good to know. How have you been settling in. it must be very strange for you, to be so far away from your own people.” she said inquisitively

Cmdr Jones (XO)

Zoz turned 45 degrees so she could examine the XO with two eyes, “It is true that humanoid culture is very strange to my species. Till recently we avoided exposing ourselves to humanoids as previous encounters led to unfortunate responces and the enslavement of my Species. Humanoids figure prominately in horrific entertainments and storytelling. But it is my experiance so far that the Federation and Starfleet are neither monsters nor horrific even if the humanoid form is esthetically unpleasing to me. I am one of a small number of my species released to travel and examine the Federation and advise on the appropriateness of continued association with humanoids of the Federation.”, s/he stated while emphasizing her /m speach with movement of not otherwise occupied tenticles.

Ensign Zoz-Eki-Ion. Security

Jade nodded “I’m sorry to hear about your previous experience with humanoids. But I’m glade the federation is treating you well. There are so many nefarious humanoid species out there, the Ferengi, Romulans and Cardassian to name but a few. It’s an on going struggle to bring the same level of respect and equality to the galaxy.” Jade said kindly ” i’m glad to have you as part of my crew” she added.

Cmdr Jones (XO)

Zoz made a few gestures then realised they would likely mean nothing to the XO. “We have opened relations with all the species you mentioned, and others as well. The increasing technological capability of the various powers was making continuing covert trade operations unsustainable in any case. I.” And s/he used the term I as if it was a significant word she was unused to using, “am also pleased by having crew mates who are well socialised and mostly inoffensive.”, s/he said in a happy tone. S/he had started trying to use inflections to accent her emotional state as it had been infered that her usual monotone was dry and thus created a state of bordom in listeners.

Ensign Zoz-Eki-Ion. Security.

Jade raised her eyebrow “Only mostly. Who has caused you offence. I’ll have a chat with them?” She asked “If it’s a cultural thing i’ll make sure every one is re-briefed on you species.” she added. Jade wanted to look after her crew as best she could.
