In the mess hall...

*sees Liz enter, waits until she gets food, then waves her over*

Nice to see you outside of Sickbay. I was worried something had happened...

Yes a lot has happened lately. Dr. Linnis Paris gave birth to a beautiful daughter named Renara. The baby is growing so quickly too...

Michael Rostov, who works in engineering...well he and Stephen Tanner were recently in sickbay. They both needed treatment. I am prevented from saying exactly why due to patient confidentiality, but the two of them are likely going to be going to have a hard time dealing with what happened.

*notes to self: congratulate Dr. Paris.*

Oh man. *remembers Tanner from the rescue mission and his selfless act of courage*
I... I hope they're both okay. I'm... sorry they were in sickbay.
*doesn't really know what to say due to not knowing what's going on, but still concerned*

[liz_cutler]

*smiles* They should be given time. I do know I will do what I can to help.

Assisting with the birth did cement one thing in my mind though, it made me know that I have what it takes to be a good nurse. I'm thinking that I may take the training, it will mean extra work for awhile, but I think it will be worth it.

*takes a bite of food*

[_romero_]

*smiles* Well, I'm glad you've gained that bit of confidence.
*continues eating for a moment, thinking*

[liz_cutler]

*smiles* You think you'd still like me if I suddenly turned into a squid? That is so...sweet.

[_romero_]

Well, it's better than sitting in my quarters and being bored until the next time we get attacked...

Sweet? *tries not to blush*

[liz_cutler]

*sees a slight hint of red on his cheeks* Yes, sweet.

*smiles and flirts a little.* I'm glad we're becoming friends, you take my slightly odd sense of humor in stride instead of running for the nearest door.

[_romero_]

Your other friends run for the nearest door?

[liz_cutler]

*yawn*

Sorry, it seems as if the day's events have caught up to me. I hope you don't mind if I leave so soon. I think I need a bit of extra rest.

[_romero_]

Oh! Uh, no, I don't mind- I'm sorry if I kept you...

[liz_cutler]

No you didn't. I enjoyed taking a break and finding you here was a bonus. I was glad to see a friendly face and I needed to relax a bit before heading home. *smiles*

It was nice to eat with a friend and see what you were up to.

[_romero_]

*beams inwardly as she calls him "friend"*

Well, I hope you have a wonderful evening and rest well tonight. You've had a busy day.
