✩ the open markets
( the markets are one of the first places that Una finds herself, the first goal that she had in mind: she needed supplies, she needed to know where things were or what she had access to. and she was hungry. the missing time on the enterprise might have skipped over in their memories but not in her stomach and whilst she didn't know what was possible on this planet -- did replicators exist, were there food kiosks or was it simply a market of ingredients for her to cook?

the street food ends up being the first place that she finds, able to smell out the stalls whilst taking note of the shops that she passes. clothing would... be interested based on what was in the windows of shops but nothing that seemed outrageous or impractical. anything else she hadn't yet managed to come across.

she ends up with some sort of sandwich, not entirely certain what it is but she's in a new place and giving it a try, finding herself somewhere to sit to eat it whilst trying to figure out a plan, of where to browse and what she'd feasibly be able to get herself set up with )

✩ cyborg
( it's later in the day when una ends up in the coffee shop, when it's not yet quite a pub atmosphere but quiet enough that she can enjoy her coffee, can do a little bit of research on the computers before sitting back to enjoy the music and digest what she's learned.

although that doesn't amount to much. it's a strange new world, strange being key, she's not seen a world quite like this before. she'd tried to look up information on magic, on the chips, on the parties involved but she either didn't get much or ended up with more questions than she'd started with. maybe talking to people would be her solution?

the music is at least enjoyable, giving her the opportunity to watch the people that pass through or stay, to seek out any (newly) familiar faces that she's met within her last few days. her next few weeks are going to be a long road )

✩ vr
( it's more than she's come across before, more realistic, more options... just more. she's seen some of the battle and training simulations that are offered, that are used for training and that have developed over the years but having access to something like this for more recreational means... it's much better than the holograms they had (or used to have) for communication purposes. the people seemed real, felt real, and she could smell the sights around her.

she'd opted for a scenery, somewhere to walk, to just look at what this was capable of recreating rather than any of the visual novels or training rooms that she'd seen offered. it makes una wonder whether she'd be able to program it with something of her own, if she could create her own simulation.

for now, she takes a walk, eventually finding somewhere to sit under a tree and enjoy the sights around her. a sight far different from the camp and markets, from how she'd been rescued. and this could easily make you forget what was on the other side )

✩ wildcard
other places that una would likely to be include the magic markets [curiosity and confusion], xin night market and vr [other scenarios]. i'd also love to do some mini missions but would like to discuss them first?

[ Spock doesn't react to Jim's sputtering save for a small look of satisfaction. ]

It seemed logical that we do what we can to replicate the tools we would normally have in some fashion. There is only so much scientific data I am able to collect without a tricorder.

Can I take a look at what you've got so far?

( since she'd butted in on them initially testing it out and had given them a theory about why it hadn't worked )

I'm pretty familiar with those tools... my version of them.

( assuming they were built exactly the same. and absolutely downplaying her engineering past )

[Jim motions towards the items on the table, in a silent 'go ahead'.]

I can't imagine that there's too much of a difference between tricorders on your ship or ours, but as long as we can come up with some version that works.

[And by 'we' he means Spock when it comes to the actual building of such a device, though he can at least help out by getting them a good deal or two with the vendors.]

If you have any suggestions, by all means..

[ Spock is pleased to take the input she might have. He's no engineer and though he can stretch himself outside of his skill set, he can only stretch so far before he will need to consult a database they no longer have access to or more likely books that may be difficult to find. ]

It is primarily in the form of parts and components, though I believe I have found part of a sensor that may allow scanning for temperature fluctuation with the correct programming.

( she takes the device from him, looking over how it's connected, the work that they've done so far and it isn't bad. minutes pass, una quietly working, reconnecting one part that hadn't quite been properly fitted before looking back up at them )

Do you have the sensor with you?

( she holds her hand out for it, anticipating that they do, looking over it )

This might not have enough sensitivity, though it should net you a small range in scanning.

You said you were First Officer, but what's your focus Una? Engineering?

[A complete guess, and that's only because of the fleeting similarities he saw with B'Elanna when in the same scenario. It's mostly to make conversation as the focus shifts to creating the device, though he is curious to see if she favoured a certain specialty when it came to her career within Starfleet. It is good to know what kind of skillsets they are working with here.

Jim leans back into the seat, drinking his coffee and watching the two of them work as they exchange items or fiddle with components. As they say, too many cooks spoil the scanner.]

You know, if we want something that could be effective in scanning people, our best bet is likely the infirmary close to HQ.

[And before anyone can complain-] I'm not saying we should steal from a hospital, but maybe something there will.. provide some inspiration?

[ With a nod, Spock hands over a small part that he'd rescued from what he believes had once been a powerful camera. It will require so fine-tuning, but he thinks he can do it given enough time.

Or perhaps Number One has a better idea of it and he can assist her. ]

The hospital may be willing to share their technology if I offer my scientific skills as payment.

I trained as an Engineer at the Academy, though I later switched to helm.

( she never forgot her training though, not when it came in handy in a pinch. or now, just to be helpful )

A trade of services could be useful to them. Are they likely to agree?

I don't see why they wouldn't. The folks I've spoken to down there seem nice enough and genuinely wanted to help. Of course that might change if we want to poke around their equipment, but we won't know until we try, right?

[Offering services in exchange seems like a simple option, or at the very least they can find out where to acquire the equipment for themselves. If its a hard sell, maybe they could be persuaded to assist in the little project if they explain what they are trying to do and what data the scanners could collect.]

If nothing else works, maybe they'd be willing if you guys can figure it out and then we can get them a working version to? All these different species dropping in from different planets, I know if Bones was here he'd be losing his mind trying to figure out their crazy physiology.

I will reach out to them. I may not possess the Doctor's unique bedside manner, but I believe I may be able to offer some level of assistance.

[ Suturing wounds may not be his talent, but he can administer various lab tests and offer his own knowledge of biology. Surely there is something he could offer within his skills. ]

It must be challenging to administer to so many species while cut off from their own homeworld's medical knowledge. I would imagine Doctor McCoy would complain about it a great deal while also refusing to consider not helping them.

I haven't met many yet but those I've seen generally have a humanoid appearance.

( it isn't perfect but humanoid is similar in many ways even if not human. as una personally knows given that she's very not human )

Even some small first aid skill will be useful to them.

The majority are, but the number of humanoids here who have abilities I've never seen or heard of before is far from zero.

[He doesn't want to say 'powers' or 'magic' because it sounds almost comic book like, but he's seen some weird shit.]

To make it even more complicated, practically everyone I've spoken to falls into either one of two categories- they have no idea what Earth is or if it even exists, or they're from Earth and have no idea what Starfleet is. One got close, she had first contact but not with Vulcans.
