Reia shook her head and put her finger to her lips.

“I received no response so, we are on our own.” she stated.

  • Reia, CIO/Comms

“Oh, great,” Thomas said. “As if I wasn’t feeling exposed enough down here…”

COS

Reia had been in situations similar to this but she was usually on her own. Having two colleagues with her was something she was a bit unfamiliar with.

“I suggest we proceed as normal, whether the Captain can communicate with us or not, at the moment, we still have a job to do.” she said calmly.

  • Reia, CIO/Comms

“I agree. I still think we need to keep our answers to a minimum to prevent suspicion.”

Park

“Yeah, spending time in a barely-warp civilization’s prison is not my idea of a fun time,” Thomas agreed. “Nor, on my list of things to do down here, so whatever we can do to avoid that, I’m going to do.”

COS

“Yes sir” Ben looking at Shandy whispering “is there a way that we can make a temporary buoy so the Genesis can find us easier?”

Park

Reia’s first thought was if they wanted an engineer they should have asked her husband but, that was just her nerves talking. This situation also called for comms knowledge.

“If we link our com badges together and, send out a signal on the distress channel, it would be more powerful that way.” she explained.

  • Reia, CIO/Comms

OOC: Sorry for being absence. I was overwhelmed with RL work as one of my colleagues had an assignment elsewhere and I had to cover for him.

IC:

Two people entered the room and brought some food with them. “It has been quite a while since we have met. Perhaps we could use some nourishment?” Mean said.

GM

Reia took out her tricorder and began to scan the food with relation to the physiology of her and her companions.

“Thank you, that’s most appreciated.”

  • Reia

The tricorder showed that the food was suitable for most Federation races.

“Could you tell us what it is?” Thomas asked, hoping he could get through the explanation without his stomach rumbling. It had been several hours since a rather unsatisfying lunch for him, after all.

COS

“We have brought about bread stuffed with meats and vegetables,” said Menn.

According to the tricorder, the bread was made with a grain that was very similar to wheat, and the stuffing was made up of meat that was very much similar to chicken. The vegetable part were some root of a plant and the leaves of the same type of plant, similar to onions and scallion.

GM

Reia put the tricorder away, smiled, and helped herself. Due to her higher than average metabolism she was actually quite hungry.

  • Reia, CIO/Comms

Thomas gave a small grin, before taking a hot pocket for himself. This was the second straight mission where he’d been able to sample alien cuisine, certainly more than he’d ever expected before taking a ship-board post.

It definitely tasted good, and was warm. “Is this a good example of the kinds of things your people eat?” he asked. A culture’s dietary habits said a lot about them, after all. This meal at least indicated that the preparing species were omnivorous.

COS

Ben smiled as he took a bite with his eyes closed to fully experience the deliciousness of the bread with stuffed meat and vegetables. After the initial bite, it reminded him of home.
