Day 25 [1600 hrs.] Contemplations
[ LT Daniel Havenborn | Deck 22, Arboretum | USS Theurgy, Vector 3 ] Attn: @Nolan
Daniel was seated on one of the benches contemplating. Two days ago Amelya, a woman he had been courting and falling in love with, hadn’t felt the same way as him and ended their relationship. She was polite about it but for her there was no spark which he understood although it still didn’t make it hurt any less. He had only been courting her for a few weeks and it wasn’t like they had made any major plans or anything.
Either way it was over now and he was back to being alone, he never enjoyed this feeling but he had hope that somewhere on this ship he could court a woman, or two, or three. His mind kept wandering back to his people’s form of group marriage, called a harem marriage, it took on the form of a large family unit, several people united together usually for a common goal. He hadn’t always been sure that was what he wanted but recent events had made him contemplate it more. However finding women onboard this ship that were willing to join together like that was far more difficult, he’d just have to keep searching he supposed.
He looked up and smiled as he saw Riley taking a jog through the arboretum, He hadn’t seen her in a few weeks, though he was sure that was due to the patrols and his spending time with Amelya. He wondered what she had been up to, spending time with Faye no doubt but maybe she’d be willing to catch up with him and take his mind off his thoughts for a bit.
He waited for a moment as she got closer and stood up, waving her over. “Hello Riley.” He said greeting her as she slowed down, his eyes scanning across her body, she was still as beautiful as ever. "How have you been?"
