Reez’s commbadge chirped and the voice of the CSO came through. =/\= Mrs. Reez, Lieutenant Tressex here. I am sending you the latest findings we have compiled. Please be cautious when you are going outside of the complex. There is some dangerous indigenous species around. =/\= and her PaDD beeped that it had received a file.

OOC: Info can be seen here: https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf3/ogawa/notes/27298/

=/\=Understood, Lieutenant. We’ll be cautious. But while we’re talking, we just had the debrief with the clinic staff. The medical side of things seems to have all the necessary focus, so I am free for now to do some more digging into the ecology and what not of the area. I could definitely use a large sample collection kit,=/\= Melaia replied.

Zoi had learned much in her time in Star Fleet, but Science just was not her area of expertise. She smiled a little blandly in response to the warning given by Lt. Tressex. Both she and Melaia had considered this possibility, but the woman was only doing her job so Zoi couldn’t fault her for the warning. In fact, it was commendable. She kept an eye on her tricorder as they trudged along. =/\= I would also like a survival kit sent down. =/\=

“We might need the extra water and possible medical supplies if we do run into anything of substance. Better to be safe than sorry.” Her brow furrowed. “You are no longer a Captain, but are you fully retired? I don’t mean to pry, but I feel like Mrs is the wrong honorific here?” Just the title was bothering Zoi. While Mel was a civilian on this mission, she wasn’t a civilian. IT would be like calling a doctor, Mrs. It didn’t fit.

Haven, Sec

A chirp on Reez’s commbadge signaled an incoming transmission. =/\= Mrs. Reez, your kit and the requested survival kit is coming down to your location now. Please check in regularly so we know you are ok. Tressex out. =/\= came the voice of the CSO. He sounded a bit worried, but that wasn’t out of the norm for the highly-strung Antican.

Melaia chewed on the side of her cheek as she looked at the info being sent through to her PADD but looked up to address . “It’s… a grey area,” Reez replied. “Technically, I’m still on an indefinite Leave, and not retired. I do intend to return to duty one day, maybe. Or maybe civilian life will win out and I will fully resign my commission. I don’t mind the Missus, because going about the ship waving my earned pips is rather unnecessary and probably counter-productive, but I will admit that it feels… weird after so many years of being addressed by rank of position. Now I am functionally neither, if technically still ranked Captain. I don’t really know that there’s another option.”

Glancing at the PADD, Reez frowned. “Bad weather incoming soon. We better get to it before we get caught,” se said, tucking the PADD into her shoulder bag and pulling out a tricorder while they waited for the supplies.
