Reia woke up in a bed as if she had slept there all night. She was no longer in her Starfleet uniform but a maid’s inform. The dress was black with a crisp white collar and black belt cinched around her waist. Instead of it being baggy, the dress however the dress fit her as it is was tailored for her body showing off every curve. The room was not at all like a prison cell but comfortable in its decore if not slightly spartan. The room lacked a real window but had a holoimage displaying a lovely garden. On the end of the desk there was however an image that would catch Reia’s eye. It was an image of her husband wearing what would remind her of a civilian mechanic’s outfit for fixing civilian vehicles. In the image, he was smiling and leaning against a vehicle with a hydrowrench in one hand and a rag in the other.

Reia sat up in bed and rubbed her temples. She took a few deep breaths and let her thoughts settle to see if any memories surfaced or if anything strange came to mind besides these bizarre surroundings. Finally she called out.

“Oh Dagen, do you think we could have discussed the naughty maid fantasy first? If you wanna play this game, you should be the pool boy.”

Internally her mind was on a completely different track. She had kicked into CIO mode and was gather as much intel about the room as she possibly could. Getting up, she made the bed, as any good maid would, and walked around the room several times, moving things and paying attention to details.

The door to the room opened and the same prim looking woman stared at Reia from the door way. “I am glad to see you are not sleeping the day away. Now come,” she stepped aside. “You can not expect the mssus and her husband to clean up after themselves. The kitchen table is a mess and you need to prepare the patio for the guest today.”

Reia stood up straight and made a big deal of smoothing down her uniform. Bowing her head, she smiled meekly.

“Yes ma’am, absolutely, apologies if I seem a bit off my game today. Please just direct me and I am certain I’ll have everything put to rights.”

Reia knew that being a maid was one of the best ways to gather intel. She had read about it in mystery novels and done it in a mission or two before. If she were going to work her way out of this situation, right now this had to be plan a.

Entering the main room. Reia would notice the woman throwing a fit at her husband. What was also more telling was Ensign Wainright fiddling with what looked like the access panel to the holovision. The woman who had met Reia in her room gestured for Reia to head to the patio which was a mess with leaves and pillows from patio furniture tossed on the concrete floor

As Reia made her way to the patio she made certain to pass close by Ens. Wainright. She also tried to catch what the couple was arguing about.

As she stepped onto the patio and looked around, she sighed inwardly. This reminded her of a blustery Australian day and the little patio one of her grandmother’s friends had had. Guessing it was her job to clean such patio, Reia got to work.

• Reia, Comms/CIO

As Reia worked, she had a good view of the space and the people in it. She could see Kylie as she made her way cleaning and straightening the patio but on the surface, it did not look much different than any other day where an engineer was doing their daily job of repairing consoles and fixing fired conduits. The lull in people watching Kylie and the husband and wife team soon deviated as Dagen and Bailey appeared from the hall where she had about thirty minutes earlier. They were with the same prim-looking woman and walking towards Reia’s spot on the patio. The woman seemed to say something to Dagen before stopping and gesturing for him to move towards the patio.

Reia continued cleaning and observing, making mental notes of the people she recognized and the roles of the people that she didn’t. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw Dagen entering with the same woman she had met before. It wouldn’t do to blow whatever cover she had by running towards him like a happy wife glad to see her husband so, she kept cleaning and observing. His picture had been in their bedroom. This woman probably knew they were married but, on the job fraternization was an archaic concept and Reia was still uncertain what the Hell was actually going on.

• Reia, CIO/Comms

Reia would notice Dagen making a slight jerking motion in his stride as he evidently had caught sight of her. Then, keeping his pace he was saying something and made a turn back to NE Bailey - both of whom were dressed in grey, if stylish, coveralls not unlike NE Brecker nearby. But when he looked back at Reia she may notice a grin on his face followed by a wolf whistle distinctly directed to her. Dagen held her gaze for a moment longer then said something to the stern prim looking librarian like woman with an expression from Dagen that looked utterly self satisfied.

Reia had not idea what the woman was saying but she could see her looking over Dagen like he was choice cut of meat about to be served up for consumption. Reia would see that she thought the whistle was for her and why wouldn’t she? The wife fit the description of self-absorbed arrogance. Reia would also see the prim woman’s expression and the way she grabbing Thor’s arm moving him to the patio.

They walked onto the patio and the prim-looking woman let go of Dagen’s arm. “I am not completely a monster, unlike your overlords.” Flicking her hand she knocked over a vase letting it shatter to the floor. “You have as long as reasonably expected for her to clean this up.” She did not actively tell Dagen to help but continued forward after berating him for his clumsiness. Moving to the edge of the patio, the woman waited and observed what Dagen would do with his time with Reia.
