Posted by Ensign Jhalae Ynuchausti (Engineering Officer) in Wandering Around
When she left Lieutenant Ch’Thaanaq she did not go to the Counselor or Sickbay. Instead, she ended up in the lounge, found a table, placed her bag and cylinder on the table, and pulled out her PaDD. I wonder how long I can wander about the ship until someone stops me and asks what I am doing. She thought. She pulled up the specifications for replicators and saw there were several versions of them. Holding the PaDD over the cylinder on the table she took a picture of it and waited while the results were downloaded. When the results came back she realized the part was quite old and belonged to an earlier version of replicators. “No wonder it needs to be repaired all the time.” She said as she shook her head.
Now that she had gotten the ship assignment she always wanted, she hoped all the wishing was worth it. Typically, a loner, only socializing when required to do so, making friends was not going to be an easy task. After a quick glance at the time, she said, “I think I have time for a bite to eat.” As she glanced over the holographic menu, there was a longing for authentic Orion food. Most of the spices that were used in the dishes were illegal in the Federation, therefore she probably would never get to taste these again.
Her eyes looked over the menu for something spicy. Finally saw something that seemed interesting. “Buffalo wings with Nuclear Fusion sauce?” she said out loud. Underneath the title of the dish in small letters was the description for the Nuclear Sauce, Nuclear Fusion sauce is the hottest sauce in our arsenal, and for good reason. In every taste, there is an explosive combination of Reapers peppers from Bajor, Vulcan Ghost Peppers, & Habanero peppers from Earth, with a top-secret blend of spices. This is not for the faint of heart.
“Sounds like my kind of dish,” Jhalae said with a grin as she tapped the screen to order.

After she’d eaten the semi spicy Buffalo wings, Jahlae stood, grabbed her bag, PaDD and the replicator part then exited the lounge. Her next stop on her self led tour was the shuttle bay that housed the Armadillo-class shuttles. She hoped she would get a chance to board one and see what the controls looked like. So far, all is good. Obviously I am not missed. she said to herself. I can probably skip my counseling visit and my medical exam and no one would notice.
