Personal Log #7

[Video]

Greetings and salutations. I believe that it is customary for one to welcome those who are newly arrived into Luceti.

Welcome.

To those who have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. I can be found regularly at the Battle Dome for those who want to learn to utilize the simulations.

A reminder to everyone that the Kobayashi Maru simulation has been tested and is ready for public use. I will express my thanks to Mister Obi-Wan Kenobi, Miss Ami Mizuno, and Miss Lirael for testing the program for me.

I also find myself requiring assistance for a project that I have agreed to.... though I find myself now at an impasse. I am currently working on a small scale version of projected diburnium-osmium shield technology... with some minor alterations. If anyone is familiar with this or is willing to help, please inform me.

Peace and long life.

[Spock found himself once again frustrated by the recent memory lapse... for one who highly values mental discipline, it is... unnerving to find that your mind has been tampered with. However, Spock has long ago come to terms with this place and its disregard for dignity.

In the morning Spock can be found at the Dome by the computer terminals...but in the late afternoon strange, hauntingly beautiful music can be heard coming from House #2's backyard.
The Vulcan was pleased to have completed his Lyre, and was now enjoying an afternoon of practice.

In the evening, Spock actually ventures out to Seventh Heaven and can be found at a solitary table with a cup of tea.

Come and bother Spock at any and all of these locations.]

Re: [action]

[spohkh]

I am amenable to this suggestion if you are.

[Spock regards her with an amused expression.]

Can I get you anything to eat?

Re: [action]

[dangerouswind]

No, I'm fine with the drink. Thank you.

Re: [action]

[spohkh]

Very well. How long have you been in Luceti Miss Temari?

Re: [action]

[dangerouswind]

Over a year.

Re: [action]

[spohkh]

That is a significant amount of time... I have been here approximately six months.

Is there anyone here from your universe?

Re: [action]

[dangerouswind]

[Temari follows the conversation with ease; training before coming to Luceti had taught her to read lips and she's only become more adroit.]

There are some, yes. Some I'm only marginally acquainted with. You?

Re: [action]

[spohkh]

There were two others... but now it is just the Captain and myself.

I find it an odd phenomenon to have individuals you are acquainted with appear in Luceti... but from a different time period.

[Spock has met too many people who found out they were dead from their friends...]

I must say, that I am quite impressed with your communication skills.

Re: [action]

[dangerouswind]

I know that feeling. [Seems like everyone's from a different time, from her world.]

Don't be. I knew how to lip read before I couldn't hear.

Re: [action]

[spohkh]

Indeed? Though it is a good talent to have, I am curious as to your reasons for pursuing such a talent?

Re: [action]

[dangerouswind]

I serve a bodyguard back home.

Re: [action]

[spohkh]

[Spock took another look at the petite blonde female...]

Indeed? Whom were you protecting?

Re: [action]

[dangerouswind]

[Looks can be a little deceiving, right?]

My brother is in a position of power. [There's a note of pride there, carefully tucked away but evident to those listening.]

Re: [action]

[spohkh]

Indeed? What does he do? [Spock, if you couldn't already tell, will always be curious.]

Re: [action]

[dangerouswind]

[She can tell, but she's also not too reticent about speaking of some of her family's accomplishments. Not here, not when they aren't nearby to defend themselves.]

He is the leader of our village, our hokage.

Re: [action]

[spohkh]

[Spock ponders that for a moment...]

Hokage... shadows casted from the light of a fire... Japanese translation. Is that accurate?

Re: [action]

[dangerouswind]

[She tilted her head in acknowledgement.] The hokage has a long reach, much like those shadows.

Re: [action]

[spohkh]

[Spock regards her for another moment.... There were two others in Luceti that he had met before that talked of such things...


...he wondered if she was in the same business. If she was, then that would make sense.]

Though I find myself curious at your profession and your disability... how have you adjusted to being deaf while also being a protector?

Re: [action]

[dangerouswind]

[She shakes her head.] This happened in Luceti. [And her brother is not here, ergo... no profession as a protector as such here.]

Re: [action]

[spohkh]

May I inquire as to what happened?

Re: [action]

[dangerouswind]

You may inquire. [But her tone clearly indicates that she won't answer such an inquiry.]

Re: [action]

[spohkh]

[Spock backtracked... ]

My apologies. I did not intend to invade your privacy... I merely found myself curious.

...such is my nature.

Re: [action]

[dangerouswind]

[She waves a hand, dismissing it.] Curiosity isn't a bad thing.

Re: [action]

[spohkh]

[Spock regards her with an amused expression.]

That is well, as curiosity is one of the main reasons why I have my job.

Re: [action] /died laughing

[dangerouswind]

What's your job?

:3

[spohkh]

I am the First Officer and science officer on board the Starship Enterprise.

[Spock wonders how much of that will be understood.]
