Chief Shuttlecraft Officer on the USS Enterprise NCC 1701-E. Yes, I'm half Caitian. No, you can't touch my ears.
If you've ever wondered why there's a three system exclusion zone around Ison, this is apparently why.

Every time we get a new head of HR on the Enterprise, Geordi convinces them this is a good idea.
It never is.

Half tempted just to run this through the infosec scrubber and forward the whole email chain to Gowron.
Doubt these two would be saying this stuff about the Aeldari to his face.

Now Riker and Geordi are arguing about worst army lists.
This is all only happening because Picard is off on some 'Archeological dig'* for a week. Suspect whatever planet he's on must be a different timezone as normally he still watches his emails.
*Dirty weekend.

I feel like there is a non-zero chance that Garak has spent time in the holosuites at Quarks doing a role-playing game with Trazyn the infinite and Orikan the diviner. It largely hinges on whether Quark was too stingy to pay for the license to the IP.

Before some rando pops up in my replies and says something about how this argument proves Star Fleet has gone 'woke'.
Be aware that i know for a FACT Gowron plays Aeldari.
I once saw him help Garak run a painting tutorial session for kids in the Warhammer shop on DS9.

Riker uses a grey undercoat spray. Geordi insists on undercoating in black by brush.
I don't need to know any of this.

Riker and Geordi are now arguing about the correct way to undercoat miniatures.
I'm legit surprised the Captain hasn't replied to this yet and shut the whole convo down.

So that's why I'm in Star Fleet.
Because there is no amount of post-scarcity that can quell our desire to better ourselves. To make bold decisions, like my mother. To help people grow, like my father. To reach the stars, like my aunt.
And to make those who love and once loved me proud. /END

And then she hit me with it:
"I promised your mother I'd help you make something of yourself." She hissed. "You were meant to copy me and be a doctor, not do the bit about joining Star Fleet. Stupid organisation full of idiots on ridiculous missions." /17

"What was that for?!" I remember shouting as I got up, as around us there's all these graduates and guests who've apparently just seen a serving star fleet senior officer in full uniform scratching the crap out of an ex-cadet! /16

I found them both after the ceremony, my dad tried to shake my hand. I hugged him. Then I went to hug my aunt and she INSTANTLY leapt on me and started biting my ears (don't worry, it's a Caitian fake fighty "i'm SUPER angry at you" thing). /15

I hadn't even realised she was in the sector. She'd kept the whole thing a secret from me.
Indeed I later learned that she wasn't meant to be in sector at all. The captain of the Ceratos had effectively turned a blind eye to her going AWOL for a week to get back to Earth, via shuttle relay. /14

I remember graduation day. I remember collecting my badges, up on stage, and looking back and seeing my dad proudly sitting in the crowd.
But also there, next to him, my aunt. In FULL dress uniform. I didn't even know she owned one! /13

And so, when I was old enough, I applied for Star Fleet Academy.
The entrance exam was tough. Probably the only time in my life I've been terrified about failing an exam. But I passed - just - and I got in.
Four years later, after a lot of work, I graduated. /12
