"So Alex, what ship do you want on?" Pana asked curiously. She was walking her dog through the park, and had wanted me to come along.
I shrugged slightly. "I don't have a preference." I replied honestly. She nodded thoughtfully, brushing her bangs to the side.
"I wouldn't mind getting a spot on the Enterprise." she said.
"I don't see the big deal about it. Yeah, it's the flagship, but so what."
"True," she began, "But they say people with more skill get on there. Plus the captain is hot." she stated. While Pana did have a rather incredible ability for engineering, I didn't quite agree with her second reason.
"So you want on the Federation's flagship just to sexually harass it's captain?"
"Well it's not the only reason. But it's definitely on my top five."
I laughed, shaking my head at her as her dog, LeeLee, started barking at something, pulling Pana with him toward the object.
"No! Bad LeeLee! Stop! Heel!" Pana said loudly, trying to stop the large dog. I laughed harder, bending over slightly as she had to actually sit to stop the dog. "Not funny Alexys!"
"You should see yourself!" I replied, trying to calm myself down as she stood back up and pulled the dog back, smacking it's back end.
"Bad LeeLee..." she murmured. I glanced to the side out of the corner of my eye and paused, taking a minute before looking over fully.
"What are you looking at?" Pana asked curiously.
"... A Vulcan."
"... A what?" Pana replied, quickly looking over and widening her eyes. "Holy shit it's a Vulcan."
I nodded, watching the Vulcan woman as she read her book, a large dog laying beside her.
"... I thought they were all on new Vulcan, getting pregnant to repopulate the Vulcan race?" Pana murmured. I shrugged slightly, glancing away when the woman looked up from the book.
"Fuck. She looked at me." Pana whispered. I couldn't hold back a laugh as Pana nonchalantly looked away, pretending to play with LeeLee.
"Forget about Vulcan hearing?" I asked in a whisper, smirking when Pana rolled her eyes.
"Fucking Alien hearing. All superior and whatnot." she sighed, rubbing LeeLee's head and shaking her own. I shrugged slightly.
"I bet it comes in handy though."
"Indeed it does. And I would be very appreciative if the two of you would not stare at me should we happen to be within the same vicinity again. It is very rude."
Pana and I froze as the female Vulcan looked between the two of us before walking away, taking her book and very large dog with her.
"... Well. That was awkward." Pana mumbled. I glanced over to her before looking back to the woman, shaking my head.
