“Ruby!” They haven’t met yet, but that doesn’t mean that Ania doesn’t know her. In fact, Ruby’s here, on this ship, right now, because of her.
Well, that’s not totally true. Ruby’s here on her own merit, of course. She took all the necessary exams -- passed all the necessary tests. But she could’ve gone to any ship in the Federation. Any ship at all. And Ania had made sure when she was doing new recruits to specifically recruit the other Betazoid in the Federation.
“Gods, am I happy to see you! Welcome home!” She’s hugging her, no questions asked, no hesitations offered.
