Kavia let Colter lead her down the halls and corridors to their destination. She wasn’t sure if the ship was that big or if Colter was deftly trying to make her a bit confused as to where she was coming from and where she was going. Frankly it didn’t really matter to Kavia. She was hungry and they said there was food. Entering the room she looked around. It looked like a restaurant or bar but there was not the traditional wait staff bustling about like back home. Since she wa snot on her home turf so to speak she looed over at Colter. “So can we sit anywhere or is there a hierarchy as to what tables we can sit at?”

Kavia the hungry courier

DaVinci grinned at her enthusiasm as he replied. “Though rank, does still play a part in this area of the ship, the lounge is a place where officers, senior staff, and crewman of all ranks can co-mingle and let the hierarchy of rank slide just a bit. As a Lt. Commander, I could pull rank and order a subordinate to give up his table if I choose too, but I don’t like to play that game. Generally,it is customary to sit at any empty table in the establishment. There are avaialable tables more closely packed and some less dense to allow for more private, intimate discussions if need be. Would would you prefer?’

Colter (CIO)

“Well that would determine where we want the night to end up now doesn’t it,” Kavia said with a smile. “Just for the record, the journey here gave me the body of someone that might seem young on your end but my species ages at a quarter of yours. So based on some rough calculations, because it really is a guess,” Kavia said almost absent mindedly as she looked around for the table she thought would be best, “I am probably about a hundred years old or so. Not bad for what you might call a grandmother around here,” she motioned to her body from her neck down to her toes.

Was she flirting with him? DaVinci took that into consideration as so little was known about the woman before him. Was that just her personality or a ruse to get him to lower his guard. Still, he had to admit the attention was flattering. Still, best to not let it cloud his judgement of her just yet.

He grinned as she spoke about her age and decided to return the flirtatious comments. “Well, I have to admit, you are the most attractive and in shape 100 year old female I’ve seen in a while. But, it might surprise you, I’ve got you beat by about 300 years.”

A grandfatherly man in civillian garb almost appeared from no where but likely just behind the bar out of sight until that moment. He nodded towards a table, “Welcome, weoffer table service or the replicators always open.” Lews stated as he stepped closer. Specifically circling to not spook the CIO, as if he understood jarring surprise were not on the man’s to do list.

Lews The Attendant

“Replicator,” she looked at Lews and then Colter. “So you just make copies of your food? That would make figuring out what you want for dinner easy enough? If it is just replicated for a single copy does it all taste like koli?” She looked at both men waiting for one of them to reply. Now her interest was piqued. Maybe she would have to avoid Boja for the next few hours. This place seemed far to interesting to leave just as soon as she arrived. If Kavia was lucky, Boja might need a few days to decide what to do and Kavia could spend it learning about this little corner in space.

Kavia

“Replicator food has yet to be perfected. It can have a rather bland taste at times, but the more higher class a place is, the better the food tastes.”

He turned to Lews and replied, I think we’d like table service. At a spot where we might have some privacy, as well?”

He turned back to Kavia with a look that said, ‘If that’s alright with you?’
