A Sticky Situation

Ensign Sendai Riko

 

Covered in pink Jell-O, Sendai fumed as he made his way back over to his seat. His prayers to be left out of the farce unanswered, he had reacted viscerally after being chucked into the pool of gelatinous goo. The sucker punch to Perfect's gut was effective in that it allowed him to escape, but had an unforeseen consequence, at least in the direction from which it came. Though he had seen that she and Vanroy were apparently happily married, since they celebrated their anniversary before plunging into the Jell-O, he couldn't have imagined the Vulcan rushing at him. A very nice tackle it was, too.

 

Minimally regretting his actions, he rubbed his thigh, sore from the resounding thud of the landing. He then pondered what his next course of action should be. "A watch and wait strategy would be best," he thought. When all of the dust settles from the frivolity, he would see how the pinkies around him would react to his rude and violent action in the match, as well as his strangeness.

 

"Messner at least seems capable of thinking," Sendai thought. "Hopefully I'll be able to convince him that I don't belong here and we can start working on a way to get me back. If I stay here, I may murder the lot of them if I don't do myself in first." Sore, out of place, and covered with goo, thoughts of the former option took precedence over the latter.

 

As the Jell-O dripped off of him, he looked over to the purple jumpsuit lying on the floor that Mn'stral had brought. Scowling down at it, he shook his head. Though he knew he had a fit and attractive figure, he was too much of a modest Bajoran to be happy about flaunting it. Reaching over, he grabbed it, then rose, looking for a place to change. Shortly thereafter he found a public restroom where he would expect it, even with the odd changes aboard the ship, though the interior styling could certainly make the name "powder room" more than appropriate. Slipping out of his gooey uniform, he quickly washed up and slipped into the jumpsuit.

 

Looking at himself in the full length mirror, he groaned. The garment, as Mn'stral had said, certainly displayed his body well, and she did have a good eye for fitting. However, he vigorously disagreed about which places were the "right" ones to show off. Remembering his deceased rooomate's favorite human saying, "When in Rome," Sendai sighed. Grateful that Bajorans don't show their embarrasment by blushing in the same manner as humans, he exited and returned to the center lounge, brimming with humiliation, anger, and befuddlement.
