Larim was dressed semi formal. Khakis and a green button down as he waited for his wife to come down. He looked nervosly at his chronometer. "Come on Lax. We got reservations."
"I know that" Came a voice from behind him. Larim jumped.
"Don't do that! You know it startles me." Larim said.
"Hence the reason" Lax laughed. To which Larim joined. Luckily the resort restaurant was close by. So the went, got seated and everything.
Quinn was wearing a white button down shirt, with a festive green vest on it. It had a symbol on the left breast pocket. It was the symbol of the Ó Flannagáin crest. He looked to Ameri, and his eyes were taken away with the summer dress she had chosen for the night. "I am one lucky Ó Flannagáin." Quinn said.
"Such the charmer." Ameri said, as she smiled and twirled around for him. "I'm glad you like." She said, as she grabbed her shawl. And placed it around her. She walked over to him, and off they went to meet up with the Myles. They had reservation at a restaurant at the resort.
Quinn and Ameri walked over to the table. Quinn offered a chair for Ameri. After getting her situated, he sat down. "I hope we did not keep you waiting?" He asked, with a big smile on his face.
Larim smiled back. "Not too long, Quinn." He replied. "Oh. May I introduce you to my wife. And the only betazoid crazy enough to marry a guy who fell into a fountain at our first meeting" he laughed. "Lax. Quinn, our new XO."
Lax offered her hand, after jabbing larim in the ribs. "A pleasure!" She said.
Ameri and Quinn shook Lax's hand. Ameri smiled at Larim. "Well she saw something in you, and that good. I knew from the first day I met Quinn, he was the one. But that damn war got in our way. But in the end it all worked out. Love has a strange way of working things out for us all." Ameri suggested with a big grin.
"That it does." Lax smiled. Larim nodded and smiled. "Mysterious, but a blessing," he said.
"So what do you both do for Starfleet, sorry I have not had a chance to ask Quinn. I am the new stellar catographer for the USS Pioneer." Ameri asked, as she eagerly waited for their response. She was the new girl on the ship.
"Well I'm Chief of Securty and Tactical." Larim similed.
Lax smiled wider. "And I help keep Empok nor running." she laughed
"Your not on the Pioneer?" Ameri said, with a surprise look on her face. The Intrepid class was capable of supporting families. But she was starting to notice, it was a ship full of single personal. What was up with that she wondered?
"Funny. Quinn and I were just talking about that." Larim smiled.
"I meant no disrespect, it was a spontaneous remark." Ameri said, hoping she did not offend the Myles. Quinn just smiled, he knew how his wife felt. But he remained quiet.
Lax grinned. "Dont worry about it. Larim actually didn't want to go without me, because their first mission we couldn't go. Empok nor was a compromise slash behind the scenes offer from Captain Malbrookes wife. Awesome person by the way." Lax began." Anyway. Maybe It can be different now?" she smiled.
Quinn decided to chime in at this point. "We can look at transfers, but honestly most if not all of the senior staff and their assistant positions are filled, so if you did come aboard, you would be assigned to work under a Lieutenant as an Engineer only. Not that I am trying to discourage you, family is important, just want you to know, what you maybe sacrificing." Quinn said, hating playing devil's advocate.
Lax and Larim kinda nodded. "Definitely food for thought." They said.
"So Larim, what can you tell us about the Pioneer. Besides the holodeck, where else can the crew relax or find entertainment on the ship?" Quinn asked. He wanted to get the lay of the ship, before he officially arrived.
"We have a great bar. We call it After Eleven. You know, like Ten forward on the Enterprise. Great place." Larim said.
"Starfleet managed or private contractor, like the Enterprise-D had?" Quinn asked with modest tone of curiosity. He noticed that the lounge areas were better handled by civilians than Starfleet personal.
"Private" Larim smiled.
"well that will be interesting, what' the social life like at After 11?" Quinn asked with interest. As first officer, he would be expected to make appearances for the sake of the crew.
"It's a pretty fun place. Chloe, I think that's her name. Anyway. Everybody has a good to I've found."
