==Petty Officer Katherine Whitby==
“Mind if I join you?” a voice said from Kat's blind side, making her jump. “I could use the distraction. I’m Ju by the way.” The ensign held out her hand by way of greeting, and Kat took it, letting out a low chuckle as she did.
"Kat Whitby," she told Ju. "Sorry, I guess I was in my own world for a minute." The short PO3 noted the engineering kit in the officer's hand and gave her a smile. "Guess you saw the EPS issue, too? I know I just needed something, anything, to get away from yet another diagnostic and report."
For a moment, she remembered going on tasks like this with sh'Thanis, Stelic, even with Ben Elias, before he'd become the chief engineer, and she missed her old friends. Everyone else has moved on, she thought, while I'm still here on Artemis. She wanted to be here, though; Artemis was an amazing ship, and she loved being here. But without her friends, she just couldn't help but miss them.
But that wasn't the here and now. And besides - life was change. It was time to meet some new people, and here she was doing so. "So, Ensign, shall we head on? I think it's off of Cargo Bay 3."
