A Gorn walked into the party, which made Art not just do a double-take, but a discrete third take, as well. She did a quick think into just how many Gorn were in Starfleet, and wondered if it was just this one. Once upon a time, there had only been one Klingon in Starfleet… but she wasn’t about to go over there and make the man welcome. There was no need for instant comradery, and instead the COS just watched with a puzzled expression as he ordered tea.
I probably should order a drink. Artie thought to herself. If only to look less like I’m so damn awkward. Just standing here. In the middle of the room. By myself. Like a petaQ.
A look around the bar made the crew of the Yeager look like the signing of the Federation Papers, for Kahless’ sake. A Gorn, a Child of San Tarah, and a half-Klingon waiting at the bar… it sounded like the opening of a bad joke. Art smirked, which quickly faded as she saw Papaver have a bad reaction upon seeing the new Gorn officer. Art walked away, swiftly but not with purpose, as this wasn’t her problem, nor did she need it to be. Her drink could wait.
A woman holding a tray of what looked like gagh with Earth cheese on it walked past, and Art watched her curiously. “Excuse me,” She finally said, stopping the woman from being completely out of her range, “But…” At a loss for words, she simply motioned to the dish. “Why?”
