Tabris had been working on getting through the backlog of work when he removed his glasses to rub his eyes. He blinked a few times as the light poured into his optic nerve before he jolted up, “I forgot to fix their replicator!” Tabris grabbed a toolkit and made his way through the winding corridors to the quarters of Riley and Genard where he rang the chime. He took another second to fix his uniform and glasses before thinking about how he was going to apologize for being nearly a week late.

“Enter,” Riley mumbled, staring at the space in front of him. He was standing in the middle of the double-occupancy room off to one side, a holo-emitter on the floor projecting a three-dimensional diagram of what looked like one section of the layout of a starship. He reached into the diagram, closed his hand, pulled back, and the image zoomed in. He pulled a stylus out from behind his ear and tapped a small PADD he was holding, nodding. He tapped again and the image in the holo-display changed to another diagram, this time of a domed structure. He reached out and spun the image, looking back and forth from the figures that displayed around the edges to his PADD. He finally looked up at Tabris.

Tabris entered the room and looked around, a shared quarters was always an option for him but he had lived with plenty of roommates over the centuries but he took a smaller single quarters for himself. Still it was nice to see the other options should he change his mind at any time. Tabris was curious about what the holo-emitter was displaying but didn’t want to intrude as he waited to be addressed.

“Oh, sorry, hi. Can I help you?” He tilted his head, then his brown eyes slid to the gold shoulders of the ensign’s uniform and widened. “Oh, are you here to activate the replicator?” he asked with a grin. “That is awesome.” He looked down at the holo-emitter on the floor, then off to the side where the replicator was, and made a soft yip noise as he ducked and turned the emitter off, pocketing it.

“Sorry,” he said as he stood. “Personal project. I didn’t know you were coming, or I wouldn’t have had it in the way.”

Smiling he replied, “Not a problem ensign, I hear you have some issues with that system going in and out? Any other issues you’ve noticed or things you want to modify about your quarters?” Tabris said, rather curious about the project but figuring that he wouldn’t pry, after all he said it was a personal project and he wasn’t about to impose.
