She was waiting for her parents to call her back. She kept her promise to call them before leaving on her first Starfleet voyage. She had indeed called them five hours ahead of when they would normally wake up because she was so excited. Everyone told her that she shouldn't bother to apply to be part of the USS Valkyrie crew. That ship was the brainchild of the federation and Gemini. She wanted to make a stride in the starfleet and have a head start in her career, but days after applying for the crew she started doubting that she would be considered.<br/><br/>Airie was top of her class despite being an Earthling. She had an uncanny knack for picking up on languages that were nominally classified hard for the Earthling such as Klingon. Though she knew that she still had improvements to make, she was still the only one besides a klingon to master the language in the short amount of time that was provided for the communications field.  She took the<i>conversational ability</i>clause seriously and instead of just meeting the minimum that each of the cadets had to acquired, she went above and beyond; almost borderline obsessing over the correct pronunciations as to not lose any nuances in her limited ability. As it were, she added more work to her plate but never complained. It did manage to isolate her a bit and at times her roommates would have to pry her away from her studies just to socialize.<br/><br/>Her last roommate was the one to encourage her to apply for the position. It was a gamble but would be a huge payoff if indeed she was selected. Airie jumped at the opportunity despite the little nagging voice in her head telling her that she would have been better off apply for another ship.<br/><br/>Until she was accepted.<br/><br/>Finally, her parents phoned her and she had the talk with them both. Her father was all business and protocols, finding his own way to slip in words to clue her in on the fact that he was proud of her. Her mother was the opposite crying and reminding her of every silly little thing she ought to remember; a repeat of the same talk she was given when she was accepted at the academy.  She assured her mother that she would return safely and not rush head on into any sort of conflict.  After speaking with her parents, she hung up and took one more look at herself in the her Starfleet uniform taking several breaths.<br/><br/>....<i>to boldly go where no one has gone before....<br/>
</i><br/>She was ready, now more than ever to to go and explore the vastness that laid before her.  She was nervous being the baby on the crew, seriously not having been on any other ship before. It was a good thing she signed up for the crash course the academy set up on Gemini just two weeks ago. She was at least confident that she wouldn't screw that up.
