"Yeah, I miss her when she's not here. Moving around at the drop of a hat is hard, you know?"
He nodded. Being the son of two Starfleet officers, he knew that all too well. Thankfully, they had been posted at DS9 every since he joined the Academy, so now he got to see them on occasion. He momentarily remembered his last visit with Grace, a dinner that was more than a little uncomfortable. While he liked Grace, and she was very beautiful, he considered her a very good friend but nothing like what his parents wanted them to be. He looked at Zi for a moment, wondering what his parents would think of her.
"Chocolate, or strawberry?"
"What?" He blinked once, then laughed. "Oh. Um...vanilla, actually. Why try all the other flavors when you picked the best one from the start?"
"Have you got any silicon plates?"
He frowned as she tossed a circuit board across the room, then he pulled the equipment data device from his hip. Tapping on it, he scrolled the list of what he had brought. "Did you order them?" It didn't look like she did. "I can go grab a couple if you need them," he continued. "Won't take me more than a couple of minutes." He wondered how the repairs were going in engineering, as he hadn't heard a peep from them in a while. Cobus probably was wrapping the warp core in duct tape. That thought brought him full circle to a prior topic.
"Bet Cobus is glad to have Eilidh back," he said conversationally.
