Meet N' Greet

[cityship]

Part of the crew might be gone, but life on the ship goes on. In fact, new people have woken up and, eventually, they've been spat out into the mess hall.

Maybe it's better to introduce them to some of the worst aspects of ship life first, right?

Anyway, the word is out that there's new people, and someone should probably go say hello. Before the n00bs mistake the glop for crew.

Briefly, Mei Ling considered quoting a proverb basically along the lines of 'take what you can get' but another look at the food convinced her otherwise and with good reason. In stead, she decided to offer a bit more direct help not in a turn of phrase.

The unnaturally cheery girl had this to say: "I've been told there's a place called the 'sensoriums' on the ship that convinces your mind you're actually eating something a little less... disgusting. I haven't gone yet, but I'm sure anything to make this more appetizing."

All of this is said, of course, with a sincere smile plastered across her face.

Looking up, the youth couldn't help but smile. A place that made the food look better than it was? Oh he was up for that. There was some interesting food out there in the universe but only so much could be eaten and actually kept down. "Zee Sensoriums?" Chekov blinked then frowned. "Vhat sort of technology does it use to do zhat vith?"

Murmuring something in Russian the youth looked back to the tray once again. "It is almost as bad as zee Kaptin's cooking."

Mei Ling gave him a small shrug back, "I don't know; I haven't gotten a chance to look at it yet. I only woke up a little bit ago, but another girl told me that many of the crew members take their meals in there now." She smile.

"Captain? Were you on a ship like this before?" She'd already met another person who was versed in space travel, and such advancements in technology fascinated her.

"Yes," Chekov replied, beaming proudly, "Zee USS-Enterprise. Designation NCC-1701." Looking about he motioned with the chunk of tray he had in his hand, "She vas not like zhis. Not alive- I do not know of anyzhing in zee Federation databanks zhat looks like zhis."

Then realizing what he still had in his hand the young Ensign quickly dropped it back to the tray motioning with a now empty hand to a seat across from him. "I am Ensign Pavel Chekov, zhough you may call me Chekov if you vish. Most of zee crew sometimes has problems vith saying my name."

"Chekov," she nods and smiles again, repeating his name, "My name is Mei Ling. Or just Mei is fine. It's nice to meet you."
