Chan looked amongst the crowd to see of everyone was having a good time. She wasn’t a Counselor but she knew that sometimes people needed a stranger to talk to, to keep them sain. Chan was a stranger to most of the crew. It seemed no matter how hard she tried to interact with the crew not many of them where aware of her existence or wanted to talk to her. Chan shrugged her shoulders great no I’m getting paranoid she thought to herself.

Lieut Chan (Sub-DH Robotics)

“Well, only person between you and Chief of Security. It only took me three years to get there.” Marius turned towards the Captain. “Fortunately this isn’t theTerran Empire. You don’t kill your boss and move up one step in rank.”
Marius

“And thank everything for that!” Thomas chimed in.

Julien burst into laughter, giving Thomas and Calvin an eye-roll.

“Endure the wrath of Doctor Brennan? I think not. Thank you Commander.” Ben chimed in. Ben smiled at him. Ben had a feeling that this was his former Department Head’s way of saying good job. Ben looked at Thomas “I won’t let you down Sir.”

Lieutenant (j.g.) Park, BO Tactical/Security

Riley was happy to celebrate the good news. Park had come a long way from the headstrong new officer he’d met several years ago and the promotion was well deserved. He could feel the joy from many of the officers around him. That’s what was special about the Genesis, that they truly felt happy for their own.

“All right everyone, official part is over, from now on there’s only one motto: What happens on this holodeck tonight stays on this holodeck. Have fun!” he announced loudly.

Then he said in a normal voice: “I really would love a drink now. Ben, how good are your cocktail-making skills? Can you make us a “Ben’s Surprise Cocktail?” he asked. “I’m feeling courageous!” he added, laughing.

• Julien King

Tigress finly dicided to take her place next to Ben witch was normal at such functions. It was no secret that she only came because Ben had dragged her along. “ congratulations Lutenet Park” Tigress purred. She gave the captain one of her sceptical lookes. Her ears sat at a strange position turned back and halfway between down and up. She was happy that Ben had made premonition but she was not about to let her gard down around Julien.
Ensign Tigress

Marishka approached Julien seeming to be in no hurry about it. She smiled and took a place next to him addressing Lieutenant Park.

“Congratulations Lieutenant. Well deserved I’m certain.” she said.

Marishka didn’t bother to address Tigress. What would she say to the woman that might not set her off? No, it was time to be good even though she had plainly heard Julien say he was feeling courageous.

-Marishka

Ben nodded at Marishka. He then turned to Tigress. “Thank you. What do you say about us going to get something to drink?” It was a plan to defuse any sort of tension Tigress was feeling from Marishka and Julien. Turning to the Captain. “Sir thank you for this opportunity Sir. I won’t let you down. Captain, with your permission I would like to get some drinks for myself and Ensign Tigress Sir.” He then smiled at her in front of Julien.

Park, BO Tactical/Security

Julien clapped Ben on the shoulder and gave him a smile. “Yeah sure, you two go get a drink.” he said, his eyes veering to Marishka.

Tigress growled and stepped between Ben and Julian. Her ears lay back agenst her head and she glared at Julian.” Please keep you hand off Ben Captain” she said coldly before turning and following Ben to the bar.

Marishka intentionally turned away from Tigress. Let Ben teach her how to behave. The Feral Caitain was not Marishka’s problem tonight.

As she was turning, Marishka saw Tom looking in that direction and decided she wouldn’t worry about Tigress any more that evening.

Tom noticed Marishka’s glance and nodded to her.

Tom, IntSec

Tigress returned his smile. Then wondered what protocol had to say about what was going on between her and Ben. He put ranked her know. Could they still be friends? She watched the captain and Marishka for there reactions. She so wishe she we’re back in the Zooalogy lab it was simpler and she understood everything there.
Ensign Tigress

Marishka smiled at Ben, Julien, and even Tigress. She was happy to see that Ben and Tigress had found someone. It wasn’t that Marishka didn’t like Tigress it was that she didn’t know her well enough. She was so different than any other Cait that Marishka had ever known every time they were together they seemed to set each other off but that wasn’t going to happen tonight Marishka hoped.

• Marishka

With the official part over, Julien let out a deep breath and while Ben and Tigress went for the bar, he slung his arm around Marishka’s slim waist and drew her in, taking a hold of her other hand with his and starting to sway to the music.

He looked down into the dark depths of her eyes and, without it being obvious, increased the pressure with which he pulled her into him. He knew he didn’t need any words, his mismatched green eyes bore into hers with all the eagerness and desire he felt. He still couldn’t believe that this formidable woman, secretely coveted by probably most male officers in the room… and a few females… was going to return to quarters with him.

• Julien King, CO off duty

Marishka looked up into Julien’s eyes with a mischievous smile on her lips. She moved against him with all the grace and sensuality of an Orion dancer but with the underlying strength to stand with him in battle. If she listened very closely, she thought, or felt, that she could sens his heart beating with hers.

• Marishka

As they walked away Tigress calmed down.” I didn’t trust the captain. Anyway how do you feel now that your a LT” she said. The growl was not completely gone from her voice.
Ensign Tigress

As the crew broke up into their chatter, Valleea exhaled to herself and set her emptied wine glass with other empty ones to be recycled. While she wasn’t in a bad mood, the crowd was a bit much for her and she was happy to slip out to the peacefulness of her quarters. With that thought in mind, she moved through the crowd and headed for the doors.
