As Sara was a little confused by the quarters arrangement Kastarak was also confused. Sara thought that it would be best if she brought to the captain and the XO. While being confused about it, she was thinking that she would have another female officer as her roommate. But Kastarak is a good roommate too. Although, it is not objectively noticed about anything, she feels okay about it.

Lt. Sara Lovejoy

Chris got the message and went to the room and pressed the chime to let her know someone was outside.

Captain Chris Taggart CO

As Kastarak arrived, he saw the captain standing outside the door.

“Captain,” he said, as he acknowledge him when arriving by the door.

– Ensign Kastarak (physician / counsellor)

Chris nodded back. “Kastarak. How are you doing?”

Chris

Despite being accustomed to polite phrases like that since leaving Vulcan so many years ago, a question like ‘how are you’ always set him off. For half a millisecond, Kastarak’s mind went blank. Upon ‘regaining consciousness’, he knew that an adequate answer would be ‘fine, thank you, and you?’, but it didn’t feel genuine, it wasn’t genuine, and it was illogical to go on with mindless pleasantries. At the same time, Kastarak had no desire to disclose any kind of ailment or annoyance – not at this point. There was certainly no time to discuss any matters of health. And what if Kastarak asked the captain back – what would that imply? Did he then ask the captain as a colleague, or as a doctor? There would be no time whatsoever to discuss the captain’s health in the corridor behind a room, when a meeting was about to start at any minute. What could he then say?

“I am in good health, sir, thank you,” he simply said. “Are you well, sir?” he asked back, betting on that the captain would do the human thing and simply ignore the question and answer it with a rehearsed phrase in the lines of ‘yes, thank you’. How do humans ever put up with this kind of charade? And why?

– Ensign Kastarak (physician/counsellor)

Chris wondered why it took Kastarak awhile to answer him and when he did Chris nodded. “I am actually good. A slight headache but good nonetheless. I’m glad you’re in good health. So do you know why I was summoned here?”

Captain Chris Taggart CO

T’Aria rounded the corner to find Kastarak and Taggart gathered outside crew quarters, exchanging what sounded like pleasantries. Tucking the PaDD under her arm, she walked up to them, catching the tail end of Taggart’s question. Why had Lovejoy called this meeting? Her summons were remarkably vague, but she suspected it would all be made clear in time. T’Aria adjusted her stance and greeted the two with a nod.

— T’Aria

Chris saw T’Aria come up and nod and now he looked confused. “You to? This is odd.” Shaking his head he pressed the chime again.

Chris

She goes to the door and noticed that they were all standing there. “Hello captain and Commander and Ensign.” She said. “The reason why I summoned mainly the three of you is cause once I got into the living quarters, I wasn’t expecting a roommate. Kastarak and I. Excuse me. The ensign and I weren’t expecting it until I saw it on the screen here.” She added.
Lt. Lovejoy

Chris shook his head and put his hand on his forehead like he had a headache. “Lieutenant Lovejoy.” He tried to say calmly. “A couple of helpful tips of I may. One. Don’t ever summon a Captain to handle an issue like this. They’re is a chain of command that you have to follow, which would be the XO since you’re a DH. A Captain has far too much to worry about as it is since they are busy running an entire ship.”

“Two. We are running on a skeleton crew. So they’re are plenty of open quarters. This ship is no where near the size of the Chernov but there are still plenty of beds.”

“Three. We are on a secret mission and don’t have time for this. And four. I’m very sorry for the mixup. I was in a hurry and double booked your room. I hope you two can forgive me. Now if that’s all. All of us, including you Lovejoy, need to have a DH meeting on the conference room.”

Captain Chris Taggart CO

“Uh yes captain of course. I’ll be right there sir I’m the conference room. I’ll be there right now if you’d like me there now if you’d like. Honestly I’m okay with the double booking honestly. I don’t mind it.” She said. ” I do apologize for this as well.” She added.

Lt. Lovejoy

Kastarak understood Lovejoy’s reaction. He leaned closer to Lovejoy and spoke in a soft, quiet voice, “We will sort this out.”

– Ensign Kastarak (physician/counsellor)

“I’m sorry for the outburst. Just a lot going on. But that’s no excuse. I apologize to you both. I would not recommend you two stay together since you’re both different genders but if you want to, that’s fine. If c there’s not anything else going on, we need to be in the conference room.”
