Sha had finished the updates and scheduling she had needed and after lunch she had time to think about her talk with the councilor. With everything currently running smoothly, she headed out of her office and into the midday bustle of the corridors of the ship.

She was trying to think of where to take Sinclair when ‘lunch’ made up her mind for her. Her stomach growled slightly as she came up to his office and tapped the panel to alert him with the given chime inside. She was sure he had an ‘open door policy’, but she also knew he was new enough that there was no telling when he may be with someone.

The half Klingon wondered what else he would like to do or see on the ship that she could help with.

A few moments passed and the door opened and an Ensign from the Science section walked out, almost running into Sha. “Oh, sorry Ma’am. Apologies.” and she smiled and walked down the corridor. Sinclair’s voice came from inside and he said “Come in.” and looked up from his seat in front of the desk and smiled when he saw Sha. “Hello, Chief. Glad to see you. Have a seat, if you like. Just finishing up and we can be on our way.” and he stood up and maneuvered his large frame around the desk and sat down and made some notes on his session. Without looking up, he said “Hope the day is going smoothly for you?”, his tone making it both a statement and a question.

She nodded and smiled slightly as the woman walked by her. Going in at Sinclair’s beckon, the door closed behind her. “It’s going well enough. Funny how that happens when you know what’s going on.” She said in a slightly teasing tone, poking fun at herself a bit.

As he moved around his desk, she stepped away to look out the window. “If you’re busy, I’m happy to come back later,” she clasped her hands behind her back and glanced at him. “I don’t want to interrupt or take up too much of your time.”

While she could admit she looked forward to showing him the ship, she wouldn’t admit she was looking forward to just spending time with him.

“Not busy at all. Just finished up before you got here. I have a few hours before the next shift is off and I start getting them caught up.” and he finished his notes and stood up. “All right, Chief. Lead on.” and he swept his large arm toward the door in a polite gesture of allowing her to go first.

Sha nodded and lead the way into the hallway. Once heading down the passageway, she pipped up. “So, where would you like to go? Lunch first or a stroll around the ship? You said you wanted to get to know the place.” She had a couple ideas in mind, but didn’t want to put ideas in his head. If he had a place, then there was a reason. He wasn’t the only one who studied people and their habits.

“Let’s walk a bit to stimulate our appetite. I haven’t been much of anywhere, so feel free to lead where you think, Chief.” he said with a grin as they walked. He rolled his large shoulders and twisted his head sideways in a back and forth motion. “I tell ya, sitting at a desk is hell on your flexibility.” and he chuckled.

Sinclair, CNS

The woman nodded and smiled. “Ok, a walk it is.” As he spoke of being stiff, she had an idea. “Call me Sha. It’s less troublesome than Chief and easier than my full name.”

“You got it, Sha.”

As they hit one of the intersections, she motioned where they were going. When they got to the turbolift, she waited for him to follow her in, and tapped 18 on the palm pad. “So sitting at your desk is a hard thing? I think I can help with that. But I admit, you won’t get to know many folks on the ship. But we’ll see plenty of them at lunch. I won’t monopolize you ‘all day’.” She smiled and winked at him as the lift made its way to the desired deck.

Sinclair chuckled. “I wouldn’t say it’s a hard thing to do, but I am still used to a lot more movement in my duties.” he said with a smile. “And I am getting to know people, I suppose. Just not in an ‘informal’ fashion, so to speak.” He looked as she hit the deck request. “18? Antimatter Generator and Storage bay, right? I mean, I tried to learn the layout before I boarded.” and he looked at his tour guide. “You aren’t showing me where you hide the bodies of those who displease you, are you?” he said with a wry grin.

Sinclair, CNS

She laughed. “I didn’t really mean that it was hard to sit there, but more that it was hard to not be more active, if that’s what you are used to.” She raised an eyebrow in surprise as he mentioned the deck locations. “I am impressed. Good to know you won’t be lost, too often anyway.”

When the lift opened and she stepped out, she shook her head and wagged her finger at him. “No, Sir. I don’t show body storage sites on a first date.” She laughed and headed to the storage bay.

Sha moved to the bay and palmed the door. Moving inside the nearly 100 square foot room, he would see it was relatively empty save for about two dozen crates taking up two corners like they had been purposefully stacked there to make the rest of the space empty. She moved to a small crate in the corner and opened it up. There were a few Klingon marks on it and her own name and rank as well. “Come see,” she beckoned to him to see what was in the crate. There were several others in there. Most had crewman’s names on them. A couple looked to be just general supplies. Inside the crate she had opened were a couple work out style mats, a couple blankets and pillows and several packs of energy rations. Below those was a box that took up perhaps a quarter of the crate. It had Klingon characters on it, and a House Seal. “This isn’t a secured or off limits location to senior personnel. You are welcome to come down here any time you want a moment to relax, or even meditate. This is one of the most silent places on the ship as far as resonance goes as well. So even noise most folks can’t hear, but apparently, I’m told, can still affect us, are the most dull in here.”

She smiled and waited to see what his reaction would be. She wasn’t sure if he was the meditative and work out type, but if he was, perhaps it was something else they had in common. “It’s also a good place to spar if you want privacy or use weapons or styles that aren’t exactly ‘accepted’ by the masses.” She laughed and stepped back to lean on the wall.
