Ensign Ra'aj would temporarily be assigned to a Spec Ops unit on earth as part of the emergency response to the explosion and the sniper attack. After that who knew where he would end up, but such was the life of a Starfleet officer.
After receiving his new orders, Caimlyn returned to his quarters. He was pleased that he was going to be station on Spacedock with his sister. At the same time, he was somewhat worried by the fact that she could have been injured or killed in the recent bombings on the station. He wondered if there were a way to get word about her condition.
That is when he thought of his new friend, Katya. He tapped his comm badge. "Caimlyn to Katya. I was wondering if you could come to my quarters to discuss something."
Katya tapped her own comm link. "I will be right there," she said. For some reason, she found she liked the young Starfleet ensign. Katya wasn't used to having friends. Her next-door neighbor, the one with whom she shared a love of gardening, was probably the closest thing she had to one. Yet she had said things to this ensign she would never have dreamed she would say to anyone, and what's more, she found herself beginning to trust him.
She finished what she was doing and went to his quarters, ringing the chime.
(resp?)
She went inside, and found herself wondering what his regular quarters l.looked like, his home. How would it be decorated? she wondered. But she pushed such thoughts out of her mind quickly. There was no room in Katy's world for things like that. "Hello Caimlyn," she said, granting him a rare smile.
(resp?)
Out of the blue, and for reasons she did not fully know herself, she said, "May I ask you something before we talk?"
(resp?)
"What is your second name - umm, middle name?" she asked, remembering the Standard word for it. "If you have one, that is."
(resp?)

"He who is certain he knows the ending of things when he is
only beginning them is either extremely wise or extremely foolish;
no matter which is true, he is certainly an unhappy man, for he
has put a knife in the heart of wonder."
