I would like to thank those who attempted to warn me against ports. Needless to say, you were quite right.

Sam, did you run into trouble?

[Private to McCoy, Captain Kirk, Reed, and Snape]

[Oh God can you hear the awkward? Yeah, yeah you can.] I would appreciate it if my actions on the island went unaddressed.

[Private to Snape]

I did not mean for us to part so soon in the excursion; you have my apologies. Did you run into any trouble?

Comments

[with_discipline]

I would prefer not to discuss it.

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

As you wish. Well, hopefully we are due for a little more downtime. Would that be the right word?

[with_discipline]

I believe it is. There has been little rest since I arrived; it would be appreciated.

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

I have not been here long enough to find the pattern myself, but it seems that everything here goes the same way. At least that is what others tell me.

Oh, I forget myself. My name is Sveta.

[with_discipline]

That is what I was led to believe. Thus far, it has been quite true.

I am T'Pol.

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

Good! Then there is something to look forward to. T'Pol? What an exotic name. I hope to see that your time gets better, T'Pol.

[with_discipline]

I am not certain this is the manner of excitement one would wish. [After a short pause] I find your name to be exotic as well. Is it Terran?

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

Terran? I am sorry, I do not understand that word.

[with_discipline]

Of Earth. You are Human?

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

I am. Are you not?

[with_discipline]

No. I come from Vulcan.

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

I apologize again. I have not heard of such a place.

[with_discipline]

Few aboard this vessel have. It is a planet sixteen light years from Earth.

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

How fascinating! I have never met a person outside of the Earth. In fact, I have never met anyone outside of Russia. Before the Barge, of course.

[with_discipline]

Sveta is a Russian name, then.

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

Svetlana, yes. Svetlana Nazarova.

[with_discipline]

I see. Most of my time on Earth was spent in San Francisco.

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

San Francisco? I have heard of that place, but not where. Did you like your time there?

[with_discipline]

California, in the United States. It was - acceptable. I prefer Enterprise.

Watch her make connections!

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

Enterprise? Is that a ship? Since you are from another planet- does that mean it is your spaceship?

And then the dots connected!

[with_discipline]

It is not mine. I served aboard a human vessel for several years prior to arriving here.

[greatlightother.livejournal.com]

And you enjoyed it, then? At least you were doing something you enjoyed. I must leave for now, T'Pol. Perhaps we can meet again in the future?

[with_discipline]

It was [The slightest pause] acceptable. Indeed, we can.
