As the transporter beam solidified it revealed a tall Vulcan male holding a small bag. V’Lath had made it to the Genesis at last. The journey had been a long one with many side trips to a ship here or a shuttle there, trying to catch up to the deployed Genesis. Eventually he had gotten close enough to beam aboard. He stepped off the transporter grid and was greeted by the transporter tech. “Welcome aboard. Your personal gear was beamed directly to your quarters. Anything I can help you with ?” V’Lath looked down at the tech and raised a questioning eyebrow. “NE Petty Officer Fal, sir, I meant no disrespect.” V’Lath didn’t know why he elicited such a response, perhaps because he was Vulcan, or being normally taller than most everyone else. “Not a problem Petty Officer, and thank you. Getting me here was quite sufficient.”
V’Lath pulled a PADD out of his bag and synced it to the Genesis. His quarters were on deck 4, and the counselor’s office on deck 8. He headed to his quarters to unpack a few things, then he had to start the check in procedure. Medical would be first on his list.V’Lath CNS
OOC - Sorry, post should be credited to V’Lath, not Ben.
After a short stop at this quarters to unpack and distribute his personal gear, V’Lath planned to visit the Counselor’s office, and then Medical. Other than uniforms and a few images of his parents and his siblings, there wasn’t much. There was a chess set, that was a gift from his parents, a few books on psychology and counseling, a carved bust of Sigmund Freud who was supposedly the father of psychology and psychiatry on Earth, that his chief instructor had given him upon graduation with the admonition, “Remember clinical detachment!”. Far too many counselors fell prey to becoming too empathetic and involved with their subjects, and allowing themselves to “be a part of the problem” not the solution. Neatening up his desk, he then turned and headed to Sickbay and Medical.

As the Vulcan left his quarters a human male was there to greet him. By most standards, he’d be considered tall but next to the Vulcan he was almost ten centimetres shorter. He wore a red uniform with rank pips of a lieutenant commander. He had blond hair that was slightly greying at the temples, his eyes a faded blue. He was smiling widely at the new arrival “Counsellor V’Lath, I apologize for not meeting with you in the transporter room, I was delayed on the Bridge” He placed a hand out in the normal human greeting “I’m Lieutenant Commander Magnúss Pétursson” He spoke in a slightly accented Federation Standard “I’m the Genesis’ first officer, welcome aboard.”

V’Lath was somewhat surprised by the immediate meeting of the human male upon exiting his quarters. After the friendly greeting< V’Lath took the extended hand while automatically damping his empathetic sense. “Greetings Commander, it’s a pleasure to meet you” V’Lath replied. “I surmise by your name and accent that you are of Norwegian descent. I visited many of the Norse counties during my time on Earth.” While V’Lath attempted to not use his empathetic abilities except in a clinical setting, he had learned to read body language and facial expression to a fine degree. The Commander was extremely fit, and his uniform was obviously tailored to fit his muscular form. V’Lath got the impression that the Commander was a bit vain about his appearance, but otherwise his greeting was genuine. Releasing the hand, V’Lath continued,”Perhaps Commander you could answer a question for me. Does the Captain require the presence of the counselor on the bridge when he is there, or only on request ?” V’Lath raised a questioning eyebrow while waiting for the response.

Magnus smiled at the Vulcans comment on his heritage “Icelandic actually” He shook the hand with firmness before letting go “I don’t know if he requires it your predecessor was a valued member of the crew, you’ll have to ask him yourself but I think you’ll be welcome on the Bridge, especially when meeting with new species” He turned to the side, indicating to the hallway “You heading for your evaluations next?” He asked.
