He looks at her concerned
"If you do not remember when the last time you have eaten, then I think it has been too long"
His empathic senses tingle as he picks up the sadness coming from her
"I know I am not the best counselor but if something is bothering you, I would be most happy to either listen or talk you through it. I am here for you."
He watches her curl up on the couch, bringing her knees up top her chest, sensing the fear coming from her. He stands and then kneels next to her, putting his one good arm around her to try and comfort her

"I'm ok... if you want me to, I'll eat something. I don't care what, I'm not hungry enough to want anything specific." She spoke in a small voice, not moving from her spot. She sensed his concern and she didn't want to be the cause of it.

He nods as she said she would eat something but didnt care what. He walks over to the replicator and orders something nutritious, hoping she'll like it. He then walks back over to her side
"Here you are, Zandile. I hope you'll enjoy it"

She sits up and smiles slightly again when he brings her something to eat. She makes sure it's not red meat before she takes a bite. She eats slowly, feeling a bit odd with him watching her. She can't finish what he brought her, but it was still more than she'd eaten in awhile. She looks up at him. "Thanks... you're very thoughtful"
She looked at the clock on the wall to see how much time she had before her duty shift. "I have to go on duty pretty soon, and I need to take a quick shower first. Perhaps we can meet in Ten Forward after duty?" She raises a brow as she inquires.

As she eats, he tried not to watch her to closely, as most people get nervous when people watch them eat. After awhile, she hands him the plate with what she couldn't eat
"Thanks... you're very thoughtful"
"You're Very welcome, Zandile. I am helping out a fellow crewman and a friend. I would do anything"
He nods as she mentioned she had to go on duty soon, and wanted to get a shower first
"If you'd like, you can use my shower or perhaps you'd like to use the one in your quarters?"

"I'll go to my quarters... that's where all my stuff is. I'm going to ten forward after my shift." She stood up and picked up the picture he had given her. She headed for the door but before she exited, she looked back at him with another true smile. "Thanks... for everything." With that, she left for her quarters.
She entered her quarters and she looked around. Everything here seemed so foreign. Some of it was Tyler's stuff that he had left behind. She grabs what she can and pushes it into an armchair so she can pack it all away in a box later when she had time. She sets her gift from Rhian on her desk, next to a stack of PADDs. She goes to her bathroom and takes a shower and changes into a clean uniform. Finally, she pulls her hair up and heads for the armory.

He saw another true smile on Zandile's lips and he smiles himself
"Anytime, Zandile"
Feeling good, he turns and goes to put the plate he was holding in the recycler, then starts making plans, but first, he'd go to 10 forward and wait for Zandile. He goes and takes himself a shower to freshen up, then exits his quarters, going to 10 forward

After a long day of work on the planet, Teshurr returns to his quarters. First thing up is to try the new "water"shower. He undress and once in he turns on the cold water, as the icy water hits his blue skin....a great smiles comes to his face. He know that he will only have water showers twice a week...but that is better then nothing.
After all most 20 minutes in the shower, he get out and towels down. He now dresses in a long white rob and gets ready to nite in his quarters. Walking into the living room with a large glass of ice water he speak out.
"Computer....Andorian Blues....."
The Andorian jazz music starts as Teshurr heads to take a sit in a large under size chair.

Anarra entered her quarters, it was quiet and dark, she figured Mark must be in Ten Forward already where they had arranged to have dinner. She changes out of her uniform and into a light blue betazoid maternity dress, something that would be more comfortable then her uniform, which she had found quite conforming as of late. She then exits her quarters and heads for Ten Forward.

Teshurr is now sitting back and listen to the music...he called out once more....
"Computer...drop the temperature another 6 degrees and turn off all the light in my quarters."
Once this starts a cool breeze cover the room and the room goods black, Teshurr now closes his eyes and thinks of the white snow cover mountians of his home planet, He soo missed it now and wonder if space is the true place for him.

Zandile enters her quarters and finds a bottle of sleeping pills she had gotten from sickbay earlier. She takes what is prescribed on the bottle and changes into pajamas. She curls up on the couch under a blanket and falls asleep fairly quickly and sleeps soundly and dreamlessly.

He walked into his quarters his feelings very mixed.He was happy a fellow Rihannsu had come home yet he was puzzled about some of the crews reactions to Rhian's departure.
He would be a hero of the Empire but some seemed to take that as an offense.Some flat out insulted his people.
His mind was thinking rapidly,it was as though many thought Rihannsu were callus or cold.Could they not see that all were saddened by what happened to Rhian?
But he had lost his arm in battle no shame there.He was to occupied by women but that was his choice.
He shook his head,how could he ever get past such prejudice?Could others not respect his culture as he accepted theirs?

Anarra leaves her shift, she is still in her uniform as she approaches the door to Zandile's quarters. She had already inquired about Zandile's whereabouts. It had been several days since Rhian had left the New York. She was afraid of how this had affected her friend knowing the emotional termoil she had gone through lately. She rings the chime on the door and waits a reply from with in.

Zandile hears the chime and senses Anarra. "Come in" She calls out. She still has her nose buried in a PADD with a crew rotation list. She figures that Anarra is here to talk, but she didn't want to risk the measure of calm and peace she had finally found by meditating and the sleep provided by the sleeping pills she had taken.

He shook his head trying to clear his mind of such troublesome thoughts.He walked over to a cabinet he had brought from home.It was made from wood from the great northern forest's.
He ran his hand over the High Rihannsu writing on it.Carefully he unlocked it and opened it up.He took out four silver chalices.He reached in and took out four leather bags as well.
He placed the chalices on the floor around him.One in front one to each side and one behind him.He opened the leather bags and removed their contents.
He took a flask of water from one of the bags and filled the chalice to his right with it.Another bag held soil from ch'Rihann.He placed this in the chalice to his left.
Another bag held a bottle that appeared empty.In fact it held air from his home.He placed the small bottle in the chalice behind him.The last bag had a small amount of tender in it.he placed it in the chalice in front of him.
He lit the tender with flint to make a small fire.Smiling he was now surrounded by the Elements in a visual way.he sat in the floor in the midst of the Elements.
He began to sing in High Rihannsu and let his mind relax but focus.he meditated for hours asking the Elements for guidance.Finally when he could feel that he had been answered he opened his eyes.
He carefully put everything back into its proper place.Taking the sacred items and locking them in his cabinet.
Standing he walked to the ships computer and made a call to his parents.They had both had served in the RSE and they always made him feel better like parents tended to do.
