Preem arrived in Cargo Bay 3 with her assistants in tow quickly they began to start unpacking crates and setting up makeup stations, hair stations, various other prep areas and… a snack table. It seemed that Golfink for all of his many many flaws was not so cruel as to starve his actors, or perhaps his assistant was just more forward thinking, but every manner of finger food was available.

Within a matter of hours the cargo bay was transformed into a waiting area on one side and an interview area on the next.

As so often in recent days, Aizala was heading towards the Arboretum right after her shift in Sickbay was over. The first time she had set foot into that beautiful space, she had felt a little uncomfortable. But she had also liked the Arboretum almost instantly. So she had returned and by now found it to be one of her favourite spots on the ship. One she visited at least a few times every week. On her way there she passed Cargo Bay 3. She had heard about the film crew, but so far hadn’t had any contact with any of them. Something she was grateful for as she wasn’t certain how she felt about the idea of being filmed and maybe even interviewed.

Compared to other parts of the ship, the cargo bay was relatively mundane with the camera crew just milling about doing what they needed to do, the air filled with the smell of tasty treats and make up, hair spray, and other chemicals. Seeing Tija pause at the door, Preem approached the woman with her arms folded across her chest clutching a PaDD tightly. “Hello,” she said gently in a calm tone. “I am Preem. Are you here for an interview?” She looked down at her PaDD and the list of names before looking up and motioning to the table, “Even if you aren’t, have a muffin or danish. “

Aizala shook her head, making her ponytail bounce a little. “No, I’m on my way to the Arboretum, actually,” she replied with a smile. She had been about to decline the food, but then thought it might be rude. So she took a step through the cargo bay door and said, “Thank you. I am Lieutenant Tija Aizala, by the way. It is nice to meet you.” Looking around the room she added, “What is your part in all of this?”

Preem blushed slightly, “I, uh, keep the chaos under control. Mr. Golfink is a very demanding person and sometimes he, uh, says things to people and well…” She reached glanced over towards the snack table, “I guess I translate mostly from what he wants and what he asks for. He is truly a master at his craft, but he…”

Her expression was sympathetic as Aizala listened to Preem, she followed the other woman’s gaze before looking straight at her again.

She waved a hand, “I am rambling. I am Mr. Golfink’s personal assistant and assistant director.”

“It sounds like you have your hands full,” Aizala commented gently, her voice low enough that only Preen would hear her. To her own surprise she suddenly heard herself say, “If you ever need a break and someone to talk to, feel free to stop by my quarters or we can meet in the Arboretum, if you like. Less private, but a beautiful place.”

Her approach was quiet and thus Dira was able to catch poor Preem’s nervous explanation. Having met Golfink, she could sympathize with the woman. She also couldn’t help but smile at Tija’s kind offer. “I second that assessment,” Myqian said with a soft and light tone, the smile still on her face as she came to stand with the pair. “The arboretum is a lovely space. One of many interesting ones on board.”

“I’m Dira Myqian, ship’s first officer,” she said to Preem. “Your boss and I met in the Transporter Room and I figured I’d help out a little by not avoiding this space. Apparently you’re wanting to do interviews?” she asked, shifting her gaze between Preen and Aizala.
