Side Sim: Engineering - Short People (Anyone left on board? Stop by for a spell)

Posted April 25, 2022, 2:02 p.m. by Lieutenant Daneg (Chief Engineer) (Nicholas Villarreal)

Daneg was busy at the desk in his office, making sure that everything was going smoothly on the ship. Because of the height of the species on the planet which the Chimera was orbiting, Daneg was left waiting on the ship. There was no possible way to disguise him, even as a youth, because of all of his lobes (both brain matter and ears). However, if this was as short of a trip as it promised to be, they were probably going to be leaving quite soon. At least, that was Daneg’s hope.

It would have been nice to have some company, though. That was one thing about being a Ferengi in a Starfleet uniform - in spite of being approved by the Academy and a slew of officers, nobody really trusted him enough to become his friend. He wasn’t sure that he could blame them that much; friendship in Ferengi society was of a nature where, if there wasn’t shared reciprocity in business, there wasn’t much point to it. Additionally, the Ferengi drive to achieve desired goals via any means necessary, provided the cost was not higher than the benefit, made Daneg seem somewhat amoral, even though, as far as other Ferengi were concerned, he was actually morally grey, since he had made some stable investments that would leave him with plenty of wealth in his old age, but was not pursuing as much profit as possible.

“Nothing like making sure that a huge disk with nacelles can leave orbit,” Daneg said to himself.
