Willow grinned. It was so tempting to squeak like a child. She didn’t, she did bounce slightly however. “Dira…I’m so excited for you. It sounds like you are starting a new chapter and by the way…you guys make such a cute couple. “ she drank then made a noise as if something occurred to her. “mMm.” She said and swallowed. “But keep it out of my command Center.”

COMyqian snorted. “As if I ever would. What kind of officer do you think I am, anyway?” she said, her ebony eyes alit. Her telepathy was dampened worse than a dull knife and yet she didn’t need it to read Willow’s emotions. And it was really nice to be able to share these revelations with someone, with a friend. She missed Bob, but the more she got herself out and about the more opportunities she’d have to develop other friendships.
“So, in other news, my mother is getting re-married soon. Great guy, really happy for her. But I do want to be there and she said she wasn’t in a rush so would try to time it for when I could get leave. Do you think it’s too early to ask Zoi to be my plus one, and is Captain Taylor going to have a meltdown if two of her senior officers are away at the same time?”

Willow pulled a face. “Yuck marriage.” She said jokingly with only the slightest of bitter twinges. She shook her head.”Nah it’s, be fine. You’ll go we will rendezvous with you guys later and I’ll try not to make it a lawless anarchy when you get back.”

CODira pointed her finger at Willow. “You better keep this place intact. I swear by the Four Pillars of Betazed if you get stuck in another realm and destroy my pretty ship I’ll come give you hell, got it?” One might think that the two had switched roles, but after the fiasco on the Starbase, Myqian was well versed in what sort of situations this crew (and their captain) could get themselves into.

Willow held up her hands. “Hey that’s wasnt my fault. We just ended up in a drama moment in life…and actually if I had been watching that from the comfort of my sofa with popcorn…it would have made an amazing serial arc.” She said in a reflective way. “Trust me I don’t want so much as a carpeted tread worn down if we can help it.” She grinned.

CODira laughed. “Good. Glad we’re on the same page. I have to admit to being curious about that series you were watching given that you came face to face with the characters. Life in Starfleet, who said it’s boring.”
She downed the rest of her whiskey and set the glass aside. It was one thing for them to drink here, it was quite another to get tipsy. “We should do this more often, but perhaps in a less conspicuous place,” Dira said with a grin.
Commander Myqian, XO
Willow nodded. “That sounds like an excellent plan. If you like, I have all of Starbase hospital and Starbase hospital: New blood, on holovid. Another gift.” She held her glass up as if indicating that it came from the same person who had given her the whiskey. “You could borrow it or we could watch it some time.”
Willow Taylor
CODira grinned. “I like the idea of kicking bad together with medical drama nonsense. Though I have to ask, do you find it cringy at times since you know more medicine then the writers probably do?” Normally she’d not want to watch something that was so close to her own life, but something melodramatic and over-the-top? Sounded like fun.

Willow laughed. “You know, I asked that exact question when I was first introduced to the show. And the person at the time told me that I’d forget it when I got into it, no joke. So I started watching.”
She moved her hands as if trying to draw an image for Dira. “There I am, on a sofa in this random room in starfleet medical where I’m supposed to be studying for exams, and I thought I’d watch one episode just to say I had tried it and didn’t like it. And I hated it with a passion. I laughed at how ludicrous some of it was and then when it was done I was like right good. But then I start wondering does it get better? So I decide to watch till episode 3. And then it was 5…and suddenly it’s the whole season and I’m invested in the characters!”
