Jacob Prescot / Zunite Oswald
Posted on Friday, March 22, 2002 - 05:29 am:   

Zunite> ::sits in Seventh Heaven reading her reports at a corner table by the windows::
Prescot> ::enters the lounge and heads to the bar:: whiskey please... ::sighing a bit::
Prescot> ::looks around seeing no one he really knows... till he looks to the corner and spots Zunite, and walking over to her::
Prescot> evening ma`am ::smiles:: mind if I join you?
Zunite> ::not looking up from the report she's reading:: not at all....
Zunite> ::finishes reading her report and then looks up:: done for the day?
Prescot> ::sits down opposite from her and sips his drink then setting it down:: yes... not much has been happening since the last attack on the ship... kinda nice to be able to breath... but it gets old
Zunite> ::sniffs:: I don't mind... there is always something breaking... and I would rather not have my life in danger...
Prescot> ::chuckles at that:: indeed... Sorry for any damage my men caused while we had to secure sickbay... we were only concerned with not hitting the anti-matter containment among other volatile things and saving lives
Zunite> ::nods:: yea... lives... ::frowns:: I have a few new replacements to train in because of the attacks...
Prescot> yeah... ::looks down:: we managed to get Farely out alive and some others... but apparently it’s near impossible to save them once they are hit by the brain things
Prescot> ::sips his drink again::
Zunite> ::nods:: so science and medical told me...

Prescot> anyways... this is offly depressing... ::smiles:: what brings you here?? don’t you have an office to do that in?
Zunite> ::grins and looks out the window:: my office isn't the captain’s ready room... no view of anything but the warp core in it..
Zunite> :;smiles:: which is especially depressing when you're reading about how the warp core has been behaving..
Prescot> ::chuckles:: good point... mine is the same way... I can see a weapons locker... has the warp core been behaving itself??
Zunite> ::smiles:: of course... but I still have to read about it... especially if it was one of the newer people reporting...
Zunite> and what do you do, sire? when you're not ordering your troops? ::grins::

Prescot> ::smirks:: I try and keep busy... I train daily... do some reading of classical literature... ::grins and raises his glass:: and of course drink
Zunite> ::smiles and shakes her head:: yea... I still have a year before I can drink... or rather until the nice barman over there will serve me..
Prescot> ::looks at her funny:: I know this will sound odd.... but there’s an age limit on drinking?
Zunite> ::nods:: 21... something’s never change... especially mom...
Prescot> goodness... wait your mother tells you, you cant drink?
Zunite> ::nods:: that and Starfleet has regulations against it..
Prescot> odd... I was drinking at dinner since I was around 10
Zunite> ::grins:: you're also from a rather medieval society...
Zunite> I think Earth decided against no drinking age because of their driving laws and such...
Zunite> some things die hard..
Prescot> ::nods:: apparently so
Prescot> ::finishes off his whiskey and looks over at her:: might you be interested in a going for a walk on the holodeck?
Zunite> ::smiles:: sure
Prescot> ::stands and offers her his arm::
Zunite> ::stands also but doesn't take his arm:: you do know that my father is Ironside, right?
Prescot> ::nods and then looks at her for a second:: let me guess.... he doesn’t approve of you and officers or something?
Zunite> :;shrugs:: he hasn't sad anything... but I just thought you might like to be careful, he is your boss...
Prescot> (m) good point... yeah wed better be careful... somehow I doubt I want to find out how he feels... shall I meet you there in 15 minutes?
Zunite> ::nods::
Zunite> sounds like a plan ::smiles::
Prescot> ::smiles:: see you there

Fifteen Minutes later

Zunite> ::waits in the middle of the holodeck for Prescot::
Prescot> ::after looking around outside enters the holodeck smiling as he sees Zunite:: hey there... good to see you again
Zunite> ::nods and get up from her seat on the deck:: and you too... so where do you propose we walk?
Prescot> Computer run program Prescot02 ::smiles:: its an area near my home nearby a forest, over looking a lake
Zunite> ::smiles:: sounds beautiful
Prescot> Computer> ::beeps in reply as they are suddenly at the edge of a small hill looking over a pristine lake... a heavily wooded forest to their backs and off in the distance a castle can be seen::

Prescot> it really is ::smiles:: and this time I wont have someone yelling at me to run faster ::chuckles::
Zunite> ::laughs and takes Prescot's arm:: and where to in this beautiful countryside?
Prescot> ::smiles as they start walking along the top of the hill:: there’s a trail to the lake down this ways... I always loved going there
Zunite> ::walks along side Prescot:: and miss it now?
Prescot> I miss home yes ::smiles at Zunite:: don’t you?
Zunite> ::frowns a bit:: no not really... a spaceship is fairly close to a space station, and none of my boarding schools on Mars and Earth were ever memorable..
Zunite> ::smiles sadly:: miss mom, but I probably wouldn't have seen her much if I was home anyways...
Prescot> she back on earth?
Zunite> at Utopia Plantia... the ship yards around Mars...
Zunite> she's the overseer there...
Prescot> sounds very important... my mother didn’t do a whole lot... took care of me sometimes but mainly kept the house in order
Zunite> ::nods and looks at the Castle:: that "house"?

Prescot> ::points out at it:: that would be it... lived there for fifteen years or so ::starts down the trail towards the lake::
Zunite> I could believe that was a full time job... ::laughs:: my mom barely keeps the quarters we lived in clean..
Prescot> basically she ordered the servants around ::Steadies Zunite as they go down the steep cliff:: but she had to keep up with current events and get social functions ready... so I don’t know, she might have had a lot of work
Zunite> ::grins at Prescot:: ordering people around is a lot of work... especially when they don't want to do something wrong... then you have to almost walk them through it..
Zunite> you didn't get along well with your mother did you?
Prescot> ::looks over at her and smirks:: that obvious huh?
Zunite> just a bit...
Zunite> ::smiles:: did you get along with your father?
Prescot> yeah she didn’t want me leaving to go into the military
Prescot> he didn’t like that I left for SF... we parted on bad terms
Zunite> that's sad...
Zunite> what does he have against Starfleet?
Zunite> my mom practically threw me into Starfleet..
Prescot> he thought I should stay in the local fleet
Prescot> not go into SF.
Zunite> why didn't you want to stay in the local fleet?
Prescot> ::smiles as they come to the lake finally and he sits down on the grass motioning for her to sit as well:: I kept on being told that I couldn’t go out into the front
Prescot> that I was 'too valuable, and that it would be a great loss if I was killed'
Zunite> ::sits down next to Prescot:: I don't understand why you would want to be on the frontline...
Zunite> I personally like not having my butt shot on..

Prescot> such a nice butt to shoot at though!! ::snickers:: I think that leading by example is the best way to go
Zunite> ::laughs::
Zunite> leading by example is probably best..
Zunite> so are you ever going to step back from the frontline?
Prescot> ::shrugs:: maybe later on in life... I’m too young now to lead from the rear... doesn’t seem proper either
Zunite> ::nods::
Prescot> why do you ask?
Zunite> ::smiles at Prescot:: just trying to figure you out..
Prescot> ::smiles at her:: oh yeah?? what do you think of me so far?
Zunite> ::bites her lower lip and then grins:: that's you're male...
Prescot> ::chuckles:: that I am ::leans in a bit towards her:: anything else?
Zunite> :;laughs:: and rich, in some sense... which doesn't matter much now days, but I've been told it used to...
Prescot> ::nods:: a bit yes...
Zunite> ::smiles evilly:: and that you have a beautiful holodeck program with the perfect castle to hone my raiding skills on ::grins::
Prescot> ::raises a brow:: raiding skills?? you'll have to get through me first milady ::grins::
Zunite> ::smiles:: that shouldn't be too hard, me thinks..
Prescot> I think I can distract you well enough..
Zunite> ::hmms:: perhaps... but I think I can get you tired enough to begin my raid... and then I'll have the advantage of it being after dark...
Prescot> how might you get me tired enough?? remember I have a great deal of stamina
Zunite> ::grins:: I have my ways...
Prescot> show me... ::evilgrins::
Zunite> ::smiles sweetly:: someone could walk in...
Prescot> ::leans over and kisses her softly... lingering for a moment before pulling away:: something like that?
Zunite> ::smiles:: yes...
Zunite> only more...::grins slyly:: simply kissing wouldn't get you tired enough for me to raid the castle while you sleep...
Prescot> ::grins:: I know... thats why Id do to distract you... then..... ::suddenly pins her to the ground, on top of her:: I can handle you better this way
Zunite> ::sticks her tongue out at Prescot::
Prescot> ::grins and kisses her again::
Zunite> ::kisses him back::
