(OOC: This is meant to be the Enterprise making planet side on Risa, so feel free to post here, do your own post, whatever you decide!)

"Welcome to the Risa Space Dock. We hope you enjoy your stay."

More welcomed words Jim hadn't heard in a good, long while. Had it only been a year since the Enterprise limped to this very same space dock after

Once the final transmission had been sent, Nyota shut down communications for all but essential messages, ensuring they would be routed appropriately before she closed her console down. She was in no particular hurry to leave, preferring to wait until the first crowd of crew members had dispersed before transporting to the planet.

Turning in her chair, she observed Jim with a smile, knowing he would be among the last to leave. "Do you need anything before I go, Captain?"

Jim chewed on his lips, then nodded and leaned forward on his elbows. "There is something, but the chances of this working out are pretty slim. I want you to send a message for me to one Jocelyn Hat- ...no, Treadwell. I've already got it stored in the ship's computer." He showed her where the file was located, still wondering if this was a good idea.

"Of course." Nyota set up an outgoing subspace transmittal and attached the file, directing it to Jocelyn Treadwell as instructed. Once it was sent, curiosity got the better of her. "Planning a surprise?" She couldn't think of any other reason Jim would be contacting Leo's ex-wife just then. Maybe he wanted to try to set up a time for Joanna and Leo to talk.

"Got me all figured out," Jim said with a laugh. "I'm hoping to do that, but well, I'm pretty sure that when she and I last talked it ruined most of the chances I had to pull this off. Still, going to try for Bones' sake." He gave Nyota a hopeful look. "No telling Spock if you can manage keeping it from his prying fingers? I want to keep it a surprise."

"Hopefully she's cooled off by now," Nyota replied with a smile. Whatever he was planning, she hoped the woman would go along with it. She knew Leo missed his little girl terribly. "I won't tell," she promised. It was important to Jim, she could see that. And even if she had wanted to tell, Spock had yet to return from his mysterious assignment. She hoped he would be there soon - it would be nice to spend a few weeks unwinding.

"Are you heading down now or waiting?" Jim asked, sprawling in his chair like he owned the place. Not too far off from the truth, that. "Just hope Bones is going to actually wait for me this time. I want to see our place together.'

"I'll head down soon," Nyota told him. "As soon as the crowd thins out a little. There's nothing urgent for me to finish before leave, but I'm not in any particular hurry, either." She shrugged, leaning back in her chair. "Have you talked to the actors lately? Chris was asking me all about Risa the other day," she chuckled.
