It had been a good while since he had been out on a ship in a while. He was headed towards the USS Manhattan before they reached out on a subspace communicator with new orders to a space station that needed extra security for some delegates from another species that were going to be staying there for a while. Regardless of the reasoning, Gareth did as he was instructed to the best of his abilities, thankfully nothing crazy had happened and he was glad to be heading to another ship. He didn’t really like being grounded to one spot anymore knowing that on a star ship he could be out anywhere to help as many people as possible.

He had been traveling with a NLt (jg) from the station that was transporting him to the USS Saracen. He was almost dismayed once Starbase 257 came into sensor range. “Relax Ensign, that’s not where you’re going. The ship is only currently docked here.” He said with a sideways grin.

“I’m that easy to read huh ..?” Gareth laughed a bit. He spent a good deal of time with this Lt (jg), they would occasionally hang out in the lounge, but most of their time was always in the holosuites. Running through their catalog was almost religious to them. From WW2 campaigns, to murder mysteries, even to some Klingon historical battles as well. “It’s probably gonna be boring without ya there Hicks. You should seriously consider transferring sometime.”
NLt (jg) Hicks waved his hand dismissively “Yeah, yeah, I’ll think about it. In the mean time reach out to the ship, we’re on our approach now.”

Tapping a few buttons to open up the comm frequencies, Mike spoke up, “USS Saracen, this is the USS Taranis, requesting permission to dock.

Upon getting permission to dock, the gently set down in the ships shuttle bay 2. Mike stood up and stretched, yawning loudly. The travel had taken a good amount of time, but he was finally here. He was a bit reluctant, but he extended his arm out towards Hicks. After a moment it clicked and Hicks stood up and shook his hand in farewell. “See ya around Lieutenant.” he said somewhat sarcastically. “Take care of your family, gonna miss them too!” With a last laugh before hopping out the door of the shuttle he took a look around his new home away from home.

Elmira had arrived only a few days prior to the good Ensign, and found herself meadering about the ship, retracing her steps from the initial tour she had been given. Coincidentially, she had been heading by the shuttlebay, when a young crewman stepped inside, allowing her a brief glimspe of what was going on inside. Another shuttle had arrived, and with it, who she could only assume to be a new officer. While she knew the prospective of having any new Tactical officer was low, she still wondered who this new arrival was. Curiously, she followed the young crewman, offering a forced smile to him, when he nodded in acknowledgement to her precense. Noticing the man stepping from the shuttle, she decided she might as well see who he was and ask if he needed any help.

“Good day,” The Betazoid approached him, that odd smile somewhat misplaced upon her face. “Welcome to the Saracen.” She gestured to the shuttlebay where she had arrived just a few days before.

As it currently was, despite his outer neutral, semi-smiled appearance he was a mix of emotions inside. Sad, anxious, curious, excited, with a slight bit of dread for some reason. Though it could easily be told that he was definitely glad to be there. The fiery headed woman was caught at the very outskirts of his eyesight, but the vibrant color immediately caught his attention amongst all the grey walls and gold colored uniforms of Engineering walking around. He nodded politely, as a flood of thoughts ran through his head, (forgive the mess I’m about to do, but I just wanna emphasize how quickly he ran through a bunch of things lol) ‘Ohwowwhoisthat?Ilikeherhair.Iwonderwhatkindofredthatis?She’ssotinyit’skindacute.Woahwaitwhatareyousayingthatsalieutenantyou’retalkingabouttherefocus.Youcan’tthinklikethat.Whydoesshehaveblackeyes?Thatsprettycoolnowstopstandingaroundsaysomething.’ The noise would fade into a clear two words, ‘Say hi’ He re-adjusted one of his bags on his left shoulder quickly before replying, “Ah, good afternoon Lieutenant .. Thank you, it’s good to be here.” ‘thatwasstupiiiiid…‘ Behind his smile if one was looking carefully enough they could probably see a slight wince at those thoughts.
