@owedfavors / plotted !! ( zack & una )
“commander.” it’s.... odd. finally being on a starfleet ship. he’s not even here to serve --- yet. that will come after. it occurs to him, briefly, that he may not be entirely prepared. mentally, sure. emotionally, of course. reserved and contained. with the exception of the anxiety beating on his chest like a drum. but that’s fine. right? but the rest of him --- the cadet uniform slightly unbuttoned at the top, unkempt wavy hair falling in his face --- if it weren’t for the slanted eyebrows and pointed ears, you’d never suspect that he’s a vulcan. and he’s starting to realize that when angela told him no one would take him seriously, this is what she meant.
“cadet sivath aloran sasak addy.” yeah. he’s never liked how long and cumbersome that is. “zack, though, is fine. please.” he looks around slightly uncomfortably, like he isn’t sure whether to sit or stand. “thank you for meeting with me. it is... an honor to be here.”
