SNIP

About this time, O’Dell walked in. He was in his usual uniform with his knife in its holster (at least it was in the right spot), and he had a clean uniform. O’Dell still wore the insignia of the Terran Empire. It was a reminder of where he had come from (and maybe that he did not always belong where he was). However, he was stuck, and he had orders. His pips (and uniform) were mostly of regular Starfleet. You could see little touches that reminded him of home. As grateful as he was that Starfleet took him in, he was not 100% a regular fleet guy.

O’Dell

Valentina took note of the others as they came in and made a mental reminder to get to know them. O’Dell seemed like he was out of place and uncomfortable there. She felt that way a lot as well and wondered if there was another kindred spirit before her that could benefit from more friends, regardless of rank.

Brenna took note of those around the table, their names, positions, their body language (she was a trained counselor after all and that information would also help in identifying the correct type of pet for a person) favorite deserts if they chose to share. The later, because certain foods could be poisonous to animals, and because in her actual line of work, information was more valuable than latinum to a Ferengi. “Chocolate, anything chocolate,” she added to the desert list.

After finishing her examination of the XO Luna hopped along, her nose picking out a familiar scent and she made her way over to DeLion to say hello. She sat up on her hind legs, front paws flopping down, nose twitching, demanding the attention she felt she deserved from the CMO.

O’Dell did not speak to anyone, after all in the Terran Empire those that spoke to much was not watching their backs. O’Dell simply nodded to each person as they entered the room. He did, however, think to himself, ‘I wonder if I can get an old earth drink called a Diet Pepsi from somewhere?”

O’Dell

Andromeda pet the rabbit absently, noting she behaved a lot like a small child. “My favorite dessert would probably have to be pumpkin pie.” It could be homemade with ingredients that never went bad after all.
-Andromeda DeLion, CMO

O’Dell heard the conversation about food and said, “I still think the best thing for dinner would be rabbit stew.”

O’Dell, CNS

Andromeda rolled her eyes. “That’s not a desert kid.”
-Andromeda DeLion, CMO

Brenna looked up at him, her eyes dancing. Luna turned around, as if she knew, and twitched her ears and banged her large back feet on the table, as if in challenge. “My dear Lt Cmdr, if you want rabbit stew I am happy to make it for you, but Luna is far too small, as I’ve said. Just give me the time and place, you won’t be disappointed.” O’Dell wasn’t the first person, nor would he be the last, to suggest Luna be dinner. And Brenna could cook, and it wouldn’t be the first time she made rabbit stew, and she had an amazing recipe for it, too.
Lt. Cmdr Atoded, CoP

O’Dell smiled at her answer and was curious. Why did these humans get so attached to these furry animals? I mean were they not to eat? Of course, the only expectation to that idea was a dog. Now that was a creature which deserved love.

O’Dell

After taking a seat and getting a gist of the conversation going on - it looked like they were talking about food. “I must admit, my taste buds are curious and so having a favourite is not easy,” Byr added to the conversation. “But for me nothing can remind me more of home than Shevt’ak, brings back some good memories,” he said with a smile that suggested there was a story behind it, that he wasn’t going to share at this moment.

Valentina smiled and held back a chuckle at the rabbit stew banter. The poor bunny on the table seemed upset and she lightly tapped her fingers offering the small creature a haven to be petted at once more, if it chose. Pumpkin pie was something she hadn’t considered in ages. She wasn’t a fan, though an occasional bite now and then was pleasant enough. More of a ‘mood’ food than anything.

Luna twitched her ears towards the tapping and detecting no danger she turned her head and then hopped over for the attention. Brenna slid the jar of treats across the table to the XO with the skill of an expert bar tender. Luna sniffed the jar and then looked at the XO, clearly expecting her to comply and feed her. “Luna’s favorite desert is papaya.”
Lt. Cmdr Atoded, CoP

“Of course, it is.” She laughed and opened the container. Pulling out a couple of the small treat bites, she set one on the edge of her fingers and extended it to the bunny hoping it would feed from her. If it seemed to not want them that way, she would set them on the table for ease of consuming as she went back to petting it with the other hand once more.
