Kara glanced over at the sleeping child, a smile dancing across her lips.
“I wish we all found sleep so easily,” she commented, before reaching for a third glass and pouring Luna a measure of the bloodwine.
“Here,” she pushed the glass towards her friend. “Drink this, Luna. I suspect you have not found much time for self-care recently. This will strengthen you, fortify your body and your mind for the times ahead.”

“ not to be rude but I There alcohol in this” Luna asked. She would to tuch the glass until she got a response. With Crenity in her armes it was not a good idea for her to drink anything with alcohol in it.

Kara shrugged. “There is some alcohol, yes,” she admitted. “But surely one glass will not hurt? Or,” she continued, her nose wrinkling as if teased by an unpalatable thought, “I could offer you the synthehol version, if you prefer?”

Refilling both her own glass and that of her fellow Klingon’s, Nakuto leaned against the bar and studied Sharvi more closely.
“It is your first day onboard the Viking?” she attempted to confirm, impressed that already the man had located the ship’s supply of bloodwine. “How are you settling in? This is an…” she paused and grappled for the appropriate phrase, “…unusual ship. Oftentimes arrivals can feel somewhat…traumatic. Although I do not doubt that a warrior like yourself can handle anything the ship decides to throw at you.”

She sipped at her second measure of bloodwine for a moment before adding, as she reached out a hand in greeting, “I am Kara Nakuto, former Captain of this vessel. Welcome, my friend.”

Luna smiled “ What brings you to the Viking? I’m going to gess you got on someone’s nerves. That’s how most people end up here” Luna said.

At this, Kara roared with laughter.
“You think that is what brought me to the Viking, Luna? That I got on someone’s nerves?”

If only her own path here had been so moderate.

“I was assigned by starfleet and the klingon empire joint operation for more peaceful operations together. After the civil war, Martok has taken it upon himself to get more klingons invested into starfleet and keeping the peace.” He said. “Fighting alongside starfleet and saving most of them for getting involved in a civil war that they had no business in, I gained a lot of respect for the ones in my party. Martok took note of that. But after many conversations with them, it made me want to join starfleet.” He said all while sipping his bloodwine.

“General Martok has taken to driving people towards Starfleet?” Nakuto laughed, incredulously. “I would have expected our Chancellor to wish for sons and daughters of Qo’nos to fight in his own forces. Perhaps old age is softening his temperament somewhat?”

Luna could not help but giggle “well guess not everyone in this ship has pissed of Star fleet. I was originally asined her because someone was not happy I made it through the academy. They tryed saying I could not join because I was not considered humanoid do to my wing. Then I find out an admiral in Star fleet was responsible for my creation ant torment. I learn this mind you after he kidnaps myself and his sun how he turned into a borg from this ship. Kara here has also gotten on Star fleets bad side to” Luna said with a smile.

“I think my father thinks I will be protected on a ship like this. The House of Sharvi, nor the Great house of Martok must not be dishonored, and what could I do on a ship like this?” He responded. “I’m sorry that happened to you. Some people can just be so cruel. I read a book once about this human who spent his life work bringing another human back to life. He eventually does it, just to regret doing so, and then tries to kill it again. Boon was called “Frankenstein.” Interesting read.” Ensign Sharvi responded.

OOC: sorry, phone went crazy and I hit the wrong button. So I edited to add what was missing.

The half-Klingon shook her head, a heavy sigh emanating from her throat.
“Martok’s forces can do nothing to protect you here, Ensign,” she cautioned Sharvi. “Here we battle with the denizens of Gre’thor itself. I would advise you to draw on your own courage and not seek protection from those who could not possibly understand the things we contend with here.”

Was the Klingon aware of the true nature of the USS Viking? Or did he remain bound to the mistaken belief that this posting would be like any other. Had he yet seen the shadows that lurked in dark corners? Had he heard the whispers that stole the very silence from the air?

“You do understand the nature of your posting here, do you not?” she enquired. “That this ship flies under a curse fashioned as if by Fek’lhr’s own hands?”

OOC: Pasting Luna back in…

“Yes people can be horrible, but If I had not been born you and I would never have met and none of us would have the chance to meat this angel” luna said with a smile. “ my wings may be a curse but there are some good things about them to” Luna said.
Ensign Luna

The Klingon ensign gave a mean stare to the half klingon behind the bar, he caught himself before he said outloud, “My father has not softened!” He composed himself, and instead replied, “Martok has been influenced a lot by Worf as of late. But be it as it may, for whatever purposes, I was assigned to this ship, and I will serve honorably aboard this ship. I do not need any protection.” He downed his bloodwine and slammed the cup harder than he meant to on the counter. “I apologize.” He immediately said.
