Valren Arelwynn, XFY CO

Valren had finally caught up on his paper work and found that it was the wee hours of the morning. He needed to cool off and thought there would be no better place than the arctic vista in the recreation decks. He got himself out of uniform and into a parka and touque and replicated a hot chocolate drink for himself and ordered the lift waaay down.
He'd not bothered with the executive lift, expecting few people to be about and - if they were - not minding the idea of finding some company. The lift stopped in the commercial areas and when the doors parted there was a very drunk, young, half-Klingon officer on the other side of them.
Being pushed right next to Valren from the few people that entered the lift, Sajida leaned back against the wall and smiled at him in the large jacket and holding a mug of what smelled to be hot chocolate. The smell made her smile and she beamed it at Valren then hiccuping from the bloodwine. "It smells delicious but the bloodwine was much tastier" she said holding up the empty tankard she was carrying.
Valren smiled at the young Klingon woman. "I can't say I've ever like it much, the bloodwine that is, though there are plenty of things Klingon I do," he said with a wink. "Where are you headed? Surely the party isn't over yet?"
"For me it is sadly even if some of it was in honor of me from a good friend of mines...I am feeling like i'll collapse right here on the floor" she said hiccuping again then laughing "And knowing me it will happen all over again. But thats enough about me where are you headed in this fluffy getup" she asked
"Down to our arctic recreation below. I'm sure there a warm clothes and warm drinks on hand down there," he offered. "You're sure I can't convince you to come a long? A young thing like you must have losts of energy and the cold air will keep you awake."
"Thanks but I will have to pass on your most gracious offer" she said while stumbling on him as some people pushed to get out of the lift as it stopped. "Seems I can barely move! darn legs....id probably fall face first into the snow anyways!"
He smiled, "That's fair, I'll find you next time," he said as the lift stopped again at what must have been her stop -- the two being the last ones on the lift. "Legs are an important part of getting home, I better lend you a hand."
"Well aren't you a sweet targ you even look like one too with this getup" she said laughing as Valren helped her out "By the what what is your name unless it is Fluffy" Sajida said chuckling again.
He chuckled quite hard as well as he held an arm around her back and grasped her shoulder. "Valren is my name. And the fur on this is nothing as fancy as Targ, just what the replicater put together. I'd think it'd take quite a few Targ skins to make a jacket this big!"
"Verrrry true" Sajida said wiggling her tankard at him "And the name is Sajida *hiccup* Kajada" she replied in a perky manner. "And whereabouts are you from?"
"Betazed," he began as he adjusted to keep her from falling, "But I've just moved here after living on Earth for 6 years. What planet, place or thing has the privige of calling you its resident?"
"The USS Excalibur has the honor of calling me its resident. She's a fine ship with a good crew" Sajida replied proudly while managing to walk tall. "And it's interesting to know you are from Betazed, my fiancee is half betazoid he'd like you Valren" she said nodding at him.
His smiled turned into a frown for a short moment before he restored it. He mouthed the syllables, "Fee-aun-say?" He laughed, "Typical, all the cute ones are taken."
"Well your not taken! That fluffy coat makes you look ok!" Sajida said with yet another laugh "Oh! I forgot to ask what do you do around here?"
He grinned, "Well, now that I don't have to worry about intimidating you, I'm the boss. Vice Admiral Valren Arelwynn, commander of this base and the task force," he said as he winked at her.
"Oooo your kidding me! Must have drank more than I thought" looking into her tankard "Your just joking aren't ya!". Valren looked at her and shook his head from side to side to indicate he was not kidding in the least "Well i'll be, it's an honor to meet you sorry I am not in the best of sorts sir! Yet I must compliment you on the Legion it's excellent!"
He laughed a loud belly laugh at that. "Now, now. I hardly need to be called sir when I am in this get up! As for The Legion, I've not yet made it there but I'll be sure to check it out," he said as they arrived at her assigned quarters. "Now, are you going to make it in here without breaking your neck?"
"I'll give it a darn good try Valren! And next time you must let me get you a mug of bloodwine at the Legion you dunno what you are missing"
"I'll take it under advisement," he laughed again as he let her go on her own power.
"Thank you for seeing me back Valren and make sure you have some fun in the snow for me i'll catch up with you sometime"
"I will," he said as the doors closed and he went back on his way. Worth the effort, he thought, even if fruitless.
