[ she's trying to sound all grown up for this. as far as she knows, she's the only starfleet personnel here and she wants to make a good impression. ]

Assistant Captain's log: Day 11.

I have a couple of questions. Does anyone want to play kadis-kot with me? If you don't know how to play, it's okay. I'll teach you. I'll be in the lobby if anyone wants to play.

And uh... [ this part is harder to ask and for a while she's silent. ] I heard someone's son just came back and I was wondering... if her son could be brought here... does that mean my mom could come here, too?

[ it's only been a few days and she misses her mom so much. ]

Thank you for your answers.

...Does that game you're talking about got any letters in it?

[protosshaze]

I like to learn new games. Can I play with you?

[ichy]

[Having been told by multiple people that Naomi is in Paradisa--and lonely, no less--Icheb has been looking through the book in search of her.]

I'll play kadis-kot with you.

[minicaptain]

No, unless you count the grid markers.

[whistles_the_blues]

Kadis-kot?

...I imagine it's fully possible she could appear. [The whole thought of that makes him hope that this place never brings the Doctor here.]

[minicaptain]

Sure! It's my favorite game. Come down and I'll teach you.

[minicaptain]

[ sadly she doesn't know who he is, but she'll be happy to meet him again. ]

I'm in the lobby and I can teach you if you come down here.

[minicaptain]

Uh-huh. It's a really fun game. [ she'll give a really generic explanation if he wants. ]

Really? Maybe if I wish hard enough... [ sob. ]

1/2

[whistles_the_blues]

[Okay, that sob. That hits close to home.]

2/2

[whistles_the_blues]

Are you free to play now? I'll give it a shot.

[minicaptain]

[ she's trying her hardest, but in the end, she's just a young kid who misses her mommy. she's never been away from samantha like this before. and usually when she was, she had neelix or seven to look after her. now she has no one. ]

Yeah. I'm down in the lobby. I'll teach you.

[ at least she sounds a little perkier now? ]

[whistles_the_blues]

I'll be down in a moment.

[He's got the most complicated relationship with his creator/dad, but he can't stand to see a family split apart. So it doesn't take him long to get down to the lobby at all. Have a robot wearing pointed sunglasses and a yellow scarf looking around for you.]

[kethedammit]

It got numbers?

[protosshaze]

Okay! ... Oh, my name is Sophie.

[ichy]

[Meeting people twice is not efficient. :|]

I already know how to play kadis-kot, Naomi.

[minicaptain]

[ seven would say the same thing :| ]

Oh. Then I won't have to teach you.

[ she's surprised that a) he knows how to play and b) he knows her name. but maybe someone's already told him who she is. ]

Do you want to come play now?

[ichy]

I have to stay where I am.

[But he would like to see Naomi. As the only other resident of Voyager present, she'll have some idea of what he's talking about when he speaks.]

If you bring the board to my room, we can play here.

[minicaptain]

Just the grid. [ think strategy games. ]

[kethedammit]

Yeah, I could learn that. You know Long Tiffany?

[minicaptain]

No. What's that?

[minicaptain]

I'm Naomi! Nice to meet you.

[kethedammit]

A card game. You don't gotta sharp or nothing, and it's all numbers.

[minicaptain]

Why?

[ she's honestly curious. she does pause for a moment. ]

Okay. Where's your room? What de- [ she was about to ask what deck his quarters were on but she stops herself. ] What... floor? [ because that's what they say here, right? ]

[ichy]

My cortical node was removed a week ago. [Maybe Naomi wasn't informed.]

The Ira Tower. Room 2104.

[minicaptain]

Okay!

[ she's sitting there with the board on a small table between two chairs and she waves when he approaches. him being a robot doesn't bother her. she's known an ex-borg drone who was as much robot as she was human and a hologram programmed with humanity. ]

Hi!
