“Aye, you’re a quick study! How was Cambridge for you?” Kyle could see how nervous the young science officer was, so tried to make conversation as pleasant as he could, “I never really ventured outside of the Academy branch in New London.”

Riley shrugged and chuckled. “On one hand, it was amazing going to a place with 12 hundred years of history. On the other, they always made sure you knew you were attending a place with 12 hundred years of history.” He took a few steps over and lifted his towel, using it to dry his neck, leaving it draped there while he held the ends. “I got out some in the local area, and did a few stints at observatories around the countryside. It was mostly work, though, but I enjoyed it. The people were always friendly when I did get out.”

He paused, eyes unfocused. “Cambridge was probably my favorite school, actually. Made some good friends.”

Kyle clapped his hand onto Riley’s back to snap him back into the room, “Ahh but think of all the memories you’ll make in the Fleet,” as Anders said this, an attractive young Ensign walked past the two young officers and made her way over to one of the adjacent treadmills, “And not just with friends,” he added quietly.

(OOC: Getting Major Tom and Harry from Voyager vibes with these two lol)

Riley almost stumbled at the clap from the security officer. He glanced at the ensign as she was pointed out, then shook his head, wiping away a sweaty blond lock sticking to his forehead. “Have to get past the cruise first,” he said. “And today didn’t seem to go that well.”

He tossed the towel into his bag. “Then we’ll see about other…” He glanced at the ensign, now hitting a pretty good pace on the treadmill. “… entanglements,” he finished. Man, that has to be a 4-minute mile pace, he noted.

(OOC: I can see it. The young and brash Anders taking the older, shyer Riley under his wing? lol)

Kyle laughed to himself as he noticed Matthew staring absentmindedly at the Ensign, now up to a jog on the treadmill, he pretended to tap his combadge, “Bridge to Cadet Riley, please report to the Ready Room immediately.” Anders tried to grab his new found friend before he could run off towards the false summons.
