The idea of practicing in public was pushing it for Solal. It was not a very Vulcan thing to do. But it would give them the opportunity to practice when the holodeck was occupied. “Perhaps we could get real ones next time the ship docks at a space station? I’m not sure…” He said. An instrument wasn’t the most common thing to just happen across.

“Yeah… and I’m not an engineer or experienced with woodworking, so I don’t have the skills to make one. Though… we could see about replicating one. I’m sure the specifications for instruments could be found and input. Maybe get an engineers advice on how they’d go about it. Or maybe see if anyone in security knows someone who could acquire things. See if they might have a lead.” Achilleas replied while his excitement kept climbing at each knew idea.

Solal nodded apprehensively, not wanting the whole ship to know what he was up to. “A replicated instrument would have to be very precise, but it would be faster than trying to acquire one.” He said. If they could decide the best way to acquire the instruments, they could involve the fewest possible people, which Solal preferred.

“The database the holodeck uses for objects would likely be our best bet then. I imagine it’d have the measurements to the level of preciseness needed. Programming the replicator to the exact specifications is possible but I think getting some help from an engineer on that would be best.” Achilleas replied as he continued brainstorming.

Solal nodded. “I agree. An engineer would be best at getting it precisely right. I am sure you would be more familiar with the correct person for the job than I?” He asked. Then they’d only have to ask one person. Perfect.

“Well… despite being a department head, I’ve had very little interaction with the Chief Engineer or any of the other engineers. For the short period I was aboard the old Ogawa there was too much chaos and mayhem going on then we were stuck on the starbase.” Achilleas admitted that he’d been negligent in making social connections with the other department heads.

“Wonderful.” said Solal, a rare show of sarcasm, complete with the human slight narrowing of the eyes. “I see chaos like the tea party event is not unheard of to this ship, then?” He asked. He supposed that was a reasonable enough reason for lacking social connections with others on the ship. Not that he’d imagine he’d be great at it, either. He couldn’t exactly fault Achilleas for that.

“If you consider the ship being trapped in another dimension and needing to forcefully ram it’s way back to ours through a tear in space, then yeah, about par for the course.” Achilleas responded while not in any way accounting for the sarcasm. “Well and I’m a scientist who easily focuses on whatever has my attention at the moment. The tea party was one such thing that kind sidetracked my department for a bit but then my getting a girlfriend became a major focus for me personally.”
CSO Petrakos
Solal raised a brow. “An interesting tale.” He said. “I can’t say I’d be much better than you at networking with others on the ship,” he added with a shrug. “No need to excuse it with your girlfriend,” He added. Internally, he would be grinning. Externally, he showed the same Vulcan face.
~ Lt JG Solal, Doctor
Achilleas shrugged in return. “Someday I’ll get around to rubbing elbows with my fellow senior staff. I haven’t been in any particular hurry or anything. Shouldn’t you be looking for a companion yourself?” He changed subjects suddenly. “I’m aware of a male Vulcan’s needs every seven years after hitting puberty.”
