Shakedown

[akoval]

nodding his head slightly as he made for doors to sickbay"No doubt shes been waiting to dig more into our anatomy I can imagine we must be intresting to most species." head nodding briefly antenna dancing in return to her look " And as for dinner assuming Lt Roberts doesn't have me tied up in the fighter bay all evening or the good doctor romberger here doesn't analyze me for hours i'll be there you know how i enjoy your company"

[Major Jaylas Aniri]

"Very good, then I will see you later. I must return to the bridge." She walked out and made her way back to the bridge. Leaving him in the hands of the medical staff.

The doors hissed open, and she stepped out of the TL walking to her position she sat down.

"Sir you will find the doctor was quite though. I am as I knew in excellent health."

[aztec]

Looking ad his PADD, Aztec looks over the notes he has made about his station. He starts taking scans of the nebula they are approaching and testing short range and long range scanners. Running level 1 diagnostics he notices a glitch in the outer sensor array. Retunning he skews the signal till they match perectly in pattern and frequency. 'If people were that easy to deal with." he smiles.

Looking back at the Col he says, "Sir, operations station is alligned and with in normal parameters, request permission to run full diagnostics on transporters.'

Thomas again found himself listening to numerous people talking at once.He was slightly used to it as XO on the Broad Sword,but he reminded himself this was now the norm.

"Nothing like the Helm is their Captain Dorius?I am sure you will have her doing loops in no time."

He turned to OPs,"Very good Ensign start the diagnostics on the Transporters."

He had just finished talking to OPs when he heard Jaylas.Her tone was rather stiff.

"Lets take a walk to the Ready room shall we?Captain Dorius you have the Comm."

He walked into the Ready Room and took a seat,motioning for her to do the same.

"Care for anything to drink?He ordered himself coffee from the Replicator.

"Listen Jaylas I am not going to pretend to claim I am any where near an expert in Andorian culture.If you don't mind would you care to tell me a little about yourself?"

He leaned back in the chair,"I am not talking about your Star Fleet record.I have that already,I am talking about your world,your family and such."

"We are a team and we need to understand each other.We need to almost predict what the other is thinking at times.I hope that makes sense."

He sipped his coffee,"I am an open book as they say if you have any questions about me feel free to ask."

He smiled hoping his family concept was making sense.

Amy had just finished with Major Aniri when LT Akoval entered.She noticed her mood seemed to lighten a bit when they briefly talked.

She realized how lonely it must be the only two Andorian's on the ship.She waited until they were done talking.

"Hello Lt. Akoval how are you today?I promise to keep this as short as possible.I already talked to the Major and she agreed."

"Would you mind if I did a little more in depth medical screening?I am sure you are in perfect health however I need as much information as I can get if you ever become ill or injured."

She smiled her biggest smile hoping he too would agree.

[kolrah]

After hearing Lt. Conner's next set of orders he put his rifle on his back.he hurried to his locker and put on the Bio Hazard suit.As he made sure it was sealed he smiled.

For an Earther this Lt was truly testing them.She was pushing them hard and he gladly accepted the challenge.

He put on his back pack and his rifle and hurried out to formation.He controlled his breathing so he would not get overheated.even Klingon's who were careless could do so.

as a thought ran through his mind he smiled again.Lt. Conner would gladly spar with him if asked he was sure of it.

[kellyroberts]

Kelly listened amazed at Akoval's ideas.Any one of them would work.In fact all of them would do nicely.he was especially impressed with his thought of redesigning the bomb doors.

He nodded as Akoval excused himself to head for the Doc's office.He was deep in thought over the amazing designs Akoval came up with in a matter of minutes.

He leaned against a bulk head looking them over when he remembered the picture he painted for Zar.He hoped she liked it.

Suddenly he found himself day dreaming about the way she tilted her head and those spectacular eyes of hers.

[Major Jaylas Aniri]

She followed him into his ready room. And took a seat as he instructed.

"Yes I would enjoy some ice water sir."

She listened to his question and her head tilted slightly to the right. While her antennae became ridged then curved towards him.

"What is it you wish to know perhaps a more pointed question would ensure my answers were in the direction you wish to go."

[matthewmcferrin]

he nodds as the doctor heads to her patients he gets the infromation gathered form the doctors first patient and he begins to input the data in the data banks of main sickbay.

[aztec]

Looking over the board again, Aztec starts running diagnostics on the Heisenberg compensators. He didn't want any transporter accidents on his watch, so to speak. Running his fingers up and down the controls felt good. Being idle was the worst thing that could happen to him. That's one of the reasons he excelled at the academy in tactics and operations. He needed the focus, almost a meld between human and machine. It was like his Betazoid side was feeling and sensing his equipment like they were sentient.

He looks around and smiles, taking medium sized sack he places it in front of him. Back at the academy he had a chance to read logs of a Constellation Class starship called the Enterprise. Its first officer, a Vulcan had a way of ensuring fresh, freeze dried coffee by placing it in a transporter bubble behind the ship. It sounded like a good idea and Aztec had used this technique many times since testing transporter stability.... 'Ah', he sighed as the burlap sack de- materialized. 'Home at last.'

[ltcolonelallen]

Thomas nodded as he listened and handed her a glass of ice water."Well tell me about life on Andor.to most species I hear it is very cold."

"Also I do know you have a clan style of living.What was it like growing up there and in a clan?"

He stopped for a second to word his next question."Jaylas one thing is well known in the Federation.Your people are well known for being great warriors.Is that why you are always exact and to the point?"

He let that statement sink in,"I have no problems with who you are please do not misunderstand.I am just trying to better understand you and your culture.That way we can work better together."

[akoval]

"no doctor I wouldn't have any troubles with a more through look over after some ice water and prehaps altering the environment a bit its hot in here" his antenna jittered slightly looking to Jaylas exiting back almost nervously. feel free to proceed with your examinations " Almost shuttering at the possiabilities and lines of questioning to follow.

[justmeamh]

She smiled as he agreed and happily complied with his request."Here one glass of ice water,computer please turn down the climate control by three degrees Celsius."

She let him finish his water."Now if you just lay down on the Bio Bed,"She showed him which one.She began to run her complete pysiological scan.

"This will only take a minute or two,"again as the sensors moved over his body she watched the readouts.She was once again amazed.

If she was reading this correctly then.She stopped her thought.this needed to be looked at thoroughly before jumping to conclusions.

Once the scan had finished she moved it out of his way."You are very healthy and fit for duty Lt. thank you for your patience."

She nodded,"I am sure you have better things to do than get pocked and prodded.I hope you have a nice day Lt. and if you need anything feel free to drop by."

She smiled as he got up from the bed.

[akoval]

Nodding briefly at the doctor as he stands"Thank you for making everything as painless as possiable i'm sure your research will be helpful in the future" making his way out down the corridores and back into the hanger bay looking around "well Kelly its back to work according to the doc i'll hold toether a while longer though i'm not sure she sounded to confident about that much. so modifying the science equipment bundles you think would be the best option?" .Checking the huge theoreticial sketches on the engineering tac boards.

[Major Jaylas Aniri]

"Andor as its known to you and Fesoan as we call it, is a very harsh world. Our culture developed out of need to survive in that environ. We developed a clan structure to survive. We group together in a commune, most of us are born into the clan. Others will join a clan after leaving the birth clan. Now we call a clan a kethni. And is the largest of our Keth groupings."

Here is a holo image of typical Andorian city. As you can see we build our cities underground near geothermal vents. Akoval is from a city similar to this city.



I on the other hand am from a much smaller city.

Akoval and I have formed a tiny lodge. It is a stable place for us among non Andorians.

Growing up within such a structure is totally different then what I saw on your world. We are never alone there is always someone to support, guide, nurture us.

She stops her conversation to drink some water and give him a chance to look at the holo image and remark on it. She needed some time to consider how to continue this.
