Operating under the alternate physical laws of subspace, where quantum mechanics would carry through to greater scales, whole molecules vanished and reappeared like ghosts, traversing fourth dimensional folds just as plainly as second dimensional lines. A human student at the academy had described it as playing with marbles on a great, gooey, bubbly origami paper, but Pelani had better success imagining it as it was, however indescribable.<br><br>The cough of a distant engineer broke the science officer from her trance, and she straightened her posture reflexively. She couldn't speak for the systems like they could, but the shields themselves seemed to be in order. When weren't they?<br><br>Glancing at her PADD, she saw no further assignments, noted the time, and showed some disappointment. That couldn't be all. Was she rushing through recklessly? Was specializing a mistake? Was she just not trusted to be—<em>Stop.</em> She stood up straight, hands clasped behind her, and breathed deeply, settling her nervous thoughts. <em>This has to stop.</em><br><br>She pivoted and began to make her way out to the corridor. If she was to remain on-duty without assignment, then it was appropriate to idle in a science lab.

She smiled slightly at the photonic woman. Being telepathic, another Deltan might find sentient holograms unsettlingly unreal, but Pelani found the phenomenon pleasant, somehow comforting. "Lieutenant Pelani. I've just finished reviewing some shield periphery records from the last warp, which clears my assignments for the moment. Therefore I was going to find work among the labs," she explained, speaking in quick syllables, but with a smooth voice, holding a confident pose yet not making much eye contact.<br><br>"Unless I can help you, of course," she added, hoping to not seem as avoidant as she was trying to be in this new posting. It was a delicate balance. Yet a hologram, and a feminine one at that, was about the safest person she could imagine in her circumstances.

Besides, she hadn't been into the Jefferies Tubes, and every square meter of a Galaxy-class starship was still a privilege in her mind.<br><br>Looking over the map, then glancing in the direction of the pipes as if to visualize the route, Pelani cocked her head slightly. "We used laser welders in basic maintenance, if that should suffice." She returned her gaze to the other lieutenant, continuing flatly, "That is, I believe that I can avoid igniting our oxygen supply. You've chosen wisely."
