ON

Suzette was near the end of her night shift, and she was hungry. Crepethians did not eat large amounts of food, but they did have to eat frequently. It had been a few hours since she last ate, so she pulled out a small pancake and began to nibble at it as she watched the science displays.

Sheridan had skipped the workout that morning after dropping Max off at school, he Glided into the bridge to get a quick update from the watch officer before shift change and see some of the off going watch. He saw Ensign de Fresa at her console.

"Good morning Ensign, how are you?"

"Good morning," Suzette said softly. She always spoke softly. All her movements were soft and quiet. For the most part. She rarely found the need to rush. She turned to face him

Ensign de Fresa was strikingly attractive, John found her voice calming and almost musical. "Anything going on interesting during your watch?"

Suzette set down her pancake and turned her whole body to face him. She moved gracefully, as if turning around a fulcrum. It was not polite for a Crepethian to present their profile to someone they were speaking to. "Nothing unusual, which is always good," she replied.

"Yes, I agree. If there's anything you need let me know."

"Thank you, Commander, it is most kind of you," Suzette said with a smile. She normally kept to herself and didn't associate much with the day crew, but Commander Sheridan seemed like a very nice person.
