Posted by… suppressed (2) by the Post Ghost! 👻Joseph Rainns led Sharah Fayth into his quarters. “Home sweet home.” He stated looking about. The quarters were fairly well kept. A dinner table was positioned in front of a window, which gave the room a portal to the vacuum of space. His bed was neatly made, with blue and red sheets. A make shift lounge area, with a reclining chair was in one corner of the quarters. In that corner was a bin full of board games and a chess set, as well as a small bookshelf with about a dozen hard back novels. A geographic map of Rainns home was on the wall, showing the North American gulf coast. “Welcome to my humble abode.” Rainns pronounced, replicator is right over there.” He motioned to the replicator, which sat in the wall next to the table.

Sharah walked in and smiled softly. This space really reflected his personality. She started to walk over and look at the map, but his mention of the replicator got her attention. She turned around walked over to the wall and ordered a grilled cheese and ice water. “I love these things.” She grinned, sat down, and waited for him to join her. “Your quarters are very you. Calm with deep meaning.” She nodded at the few things he had, but they all reflected a part of his personality or of himself that was important to him.
Cadet Fayth, Doctor.Rainns shrugged his shoulders. “I try to do the most with the least if that makes sense.” He couldn’t help but chuckle at Fayth’s choice of dinner. “My mom used to make those all of the time, really enjoyed them back in the day.” He walked up the replicator and ordered a simply roast beef sandwich. He then sat next to Fayth and began eating dinner. “I like to personalize my items, give a good reflection of the kind of person I am.”

She shrugged with a smile and wiped some melted cheese off her fingers. “I discovered this right after my first all night lab session at the academy. I asked for something I could eat on the run and was filling. It’s my go to food now. I can’t seem to get enough of them.” She took a sip of water looking around. Her eyes drawn to the map again. Not quite like the one she had. They were both a reflection of something important to each of them, but for different reasons. “Tell me about it,” she asked nodding towards the map.
Cadet Fayth, DoctorRainns looked over at the map on the wall. “Not much to say about it honestly. It’s where myself and my family have grown up for generations. It’s just a small reminder of my origins. If you lose sight of where you come from, you lose sight of where you are going. It’s just a reminder of my identity, and a place that I will always treasure and strive to get back to some day, after I run my course here in Starfleet.” He turned to back to Sharah, “Hope that answers your question.”

“Actually, I meant the real place not the map. Everything in here is meant to remind you of what you do and why you do it. I feel that as you look around the room. From your love of history to your competitive nature and desire to sharpen your mind,” she said nodding to the globe and then the box of games. The bibliophile in her was itching to look at his collection of books. “So you’ll go back when you retire? I don’t know where I would go.”
Cadet Fayth, DoctorRainns leaned his head back,” Ooooohhhh, ok, It’s a coastal region on the North American Continent. Weather is pretty nice, it does get hot for about six months, but it cools down for another four and is mild in two. It’s a region filled with friendly people and great food. it’s the kind of place that has instilled the values I let guide my life, loyalty, hard work, and dedication.” He got up and got a glass of water. “Go home to somewhere you like, somewhere where you love being alive.”
Lt. JG. Joseph Rainns- COS
“It sounds lovely.” She had to think about that one. “There really isn’t a place I love being alive. Hospitals, doctors, huge crowds of people. I love my parents home.
I grew up there. I don’t mean to give the wrong impression, but they tend to be....well you spoke to my brother. My parents are 100 times worse. Maybe I’ll find a place like that during my time with Star Fleet.” She finished her food and placed the dishes in the replicator to be reclaimed. She sat back at the table. “Have you started that training program you were telling me about?”
Cadet Fayth, Doctor
Rainns nodded, “Hopefully you will,” He followed suit and also put his plate in the replicator. “I have not, waiting for a few more cadets to join the crew before I dive into that.” He took a drink from his glass. “Alright, time for some real talk, small talk is over now.” He felt a little nervous broaching the next subject, but he simply breathed in and continued. “What do you see us as going forward?”
