T'Lari entered the mess hall and took a quick look around. She had never participated in such an event, such dinners not being something her previous commanding officers had been interested in. Captain Carstair of the Nile had been rather dismissive of junior officers and had been uninterested in socializing with even his senior staff. Captain Braggins, from the young officer's previous experience with her, was much less formal. Looking down the table she quickly spotted her assigned seat, about a third of the way down.
Few others were here. The Captain stood by the viewport, watching the star streak by, and her comrade from the first Yeager, Kal-Geal Beinn, had approached and greeted her. T'Lari decided to do the same.
T'Lari had made the decision to look her best for the dinner. She had been accused of being vain for a Vulcan, and she had to admit there was at least an element of truth in it. Her uniform was freshly cleaned and pressed despite recently coming off duty, and she had gotten a haircut that had shortened her auburn hair a bit. Even her nails were freshly painted.
This is a new beginning for me, and I intend to treat it as such. Perhaps some human optimism is rubbing off on me.
"Greetings, Captain Braggins," she said calmly. "And maj choS to you as well, Kal-Geal Beinn."
T'Lari's Klingon was very good, and her greeting of 'good evening' was about as polite as the language got, considering that the word for 'hello' literally translated as 'what do you want?'
