The thrum of the ship vibrated through the deck plates. It was a different feeling than the U.S.S. Valkyrie, but Serena had already grown used to it. It didn’t seem like such a strange place now. Slipping inside the main entryway to the neurosciences suite, Serena scanned the space, before landing her eyes on the front desk, looking for Cherry. Surely there were other department people that manned the desk, but Cherry, as far as she could tell, was a fixture here.

“Good morning. Here for my follow-up with Doctor Kingston,” she said brightly. While it was appropriate to use Kingston’s rank, in this case, her salutation was more appropriate. More than that, this was a doctor-patient matter, not commander and subordinate.

Cherry was indeed working this shift, but was not alone. Beside the blond Risian was a petite Human ensign who seemed very focused on the console before him. “Good morning, Commander. Doctor Kingston is ready for you and said to go right on in.”

Inside the office, Janna was seated in one of the armchairs with her legs crossed at the knee, a PADD she was reading in her left hand, and a mug in her left. She looked up at her door slid open and smiled. “Hello, Serena, come on in and grab whatever you like and do what you need to make yourself comfortable.”
