	"It's definitely one of my favorites. I use it a lot." Tony agreed, with a nod of his head. Then he flashed a grin at her. "You're one of the newer ones, aren't you? Just arrived this week? I definitely would remember having come across you before." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Perhaps I shall make an attempt to integrate it into my own vocabulary." Was she serious? Maybe, maybe not. Seven had a sense of humor, but it wasn't always detectable and often missed its intended mark. "To this timeline, yes. Not to this universe." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"That would be pretty cool, if you did that." Tony said, then smirked a bit at his own joke. He couldn't actually tell if she was serious or not, but either way it would be pretty amusing to hear the word 'cool' escape out of her mouth.

"So you're from the other one then. Like Jadzia, I'm guessing?" Times like this, Tony really wished he had a white board to keep track of all of this.

"Commander Dax and I are contemporaries from the same future variant, but I had not encountered her prior to my arrival. It is unlikely I ever would have."

The Federation was vast. A single officer was but one tree in a massive forest. It was improbable to assume one would encounter a tree planted in a region so far off from the area you were destined to be in.

She wasn't as naive as some would assume. When and if Voyager returned to the Alpha Quadrant, she'd wind up in Starfleet Intelligence's hands. Bajoran Space was a long way off from detainment facilities on Earth.

Tony knew the reasons why that would be, but like many things going on on the Enterprise, he wasn't really allowed to say so. People didn't need to know that their story could be watched on TV. It'd been a hell of a thing for him to process that he was in movies, and that a different him existed in comics. Not everyone was ready for that kind of information.

So he raised an eyebrow at her and asked, "Yeah? Why would that be? I guess you never had any reason to swing by Deep Space Nine?"

It was best if he didn't. Seven could likely rationalize his awareness with her advanced mastery of multiverse theory and how one person's reality could very likely be another's fiction, but in the end, it would bother her that other people knew so much about her when she still hadn't figured her own self out. There were things in her head that she didn't share with others — the things she did as a drone, that which she recalls from her abrupt childhood, and so on — that she keeps closely guarded. Things she would not take kindly to virtual strangers having knowledge of.

"Deep Space 9 is located here, in the Alpha Quadrant. My vessel was not."

	"Aren't most of the vessels in the fleet located here? Where else would you guys go?" Tony asked. "I know that station was near a wormhole but it doesn't make sense for you to be on the other side of that unless you'd been at the station, so..." He blinked his eyes and added, "OH, Is it classified? It's probably classified." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	borg 2017-04-18 12:42 am UTC (link)
	"My ship was in the Delta Quadrant, not the Gamma Quadrant." The details were classified. Not by any official order given to her by any 24th Century officer, but Seven could recite the Temporal Prime Directive down to the subordinal addendums. Divulging why her ship was where she last stood aboard it would be in direct violation of that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"That's... where is that again?" Tony asked, sounding genuinely unsure. There were things he'd memorized, but Starfleet's Map of Space wasn't one of them. He knew the quadrants by name but not their relative positions to each other. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	borg 2017-04-18 03:11 pm UTC (link)
	Seven sighed, clarifying: "Approximately sixty-five-thousand lightyears away from our present location. At constant maximum warp, it would take over six decades to reach Bajoran Space." Nevermind how Voyager got way the hell out there in the first place. She wasn't going to divulge those details. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tony_yes 2017-04-18 09:02 pm UTC (link)
	"And you probably can't tell me how you got there, either. I get that." Tony nodded his head. The ship had nearly approached dock by then, and he motioned towards the station. "You seem like a workaholic, are you going to find time to enjoy yourself out here?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"No," she said, "I cannot," but she appreciated that he didn't press the matter.

"I am unaccustomed to taking unnecessary breaks, recreational or otherwise."

In the Collective, tasks were seen to as needed by those who were capable of taking care of the matter. There was no hierarchy to check in with, no permission to be ask. You knew your place and the roles you were meant to fulfill. If you were incapable or otherwise occupied, the task was left for someone more qualified to fill. And while she's learned how to operate within those set parameters, she was not beyond going against them.

"... okay..." Tony mumbled. He scrunched his face up for a moment while his brain went about the process of making a decision, and then he nodded. "You're coming with me. We're gonna find you some recreational break time."

He waved around, indicating the Enterprise. "There's gonna be nothing to do aboard here anyway. The ship's just sitting around and other people are maintaining it. Great time to get off and learn how to do the opposite of work."

	Being given a command instead of a request did the trick, and although she could just as easily reject it, she decided to indulge her budding curiosity and play along. She was interested in seeing just what, exactly, he had in mind. "You have a point," she conceded. "Where are we going?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

(ooc: Sorry, this got lost in my inbox somehow!)

Tony shrugged a shoulder. He'd never really looked up the amenities available on the station before they'd landed, since he hadn't been sure he was even going to board it. But there they were, and he was gonna get to show Seven of Nine around a starbase. That was epic, and he was willing to rise to the challenge.

"Eh, I don't know. But this place is huge and there's gotta be something fun we can find to do. Get a drink, maybe, or check out the museums, hell even walking around with actual people would be nice. You seem like such a workaholic that I bet you don't even know what interests you yet. So we'll just start with something and work our way down the line."

( ooc | no worries! i will backtag into forever. c: )

Seven had glanced at them, but nothing in particular had caught her interest. It was hard to intrigue a Borg drone who was, as Harry Kim had once put it, the smartest human alive — almost human, anyway. She'd be partially Borg for the rest of her life; there was no way around it, her body depended on those cybernetic systems as much as the biological ones.

"I don't," she agreed, for her interests weren't something she'd given much thought towards exploring. "Then perhaps I should rephrase: Where would you like to start?"

"I... would like to start where I always start, and that's with drinks. But if the station keeps the same time schedule as the rest of this ship, we'll have to wait a few hours." Tony said, looking a little put out. Did Borg even get drunk? Seven probably wouldn't appreciate the feeling anyway. He made a mental note to start her out on something low volume.

"So until then, lets try... A tour of the shipyards. It's still got ship parts so it'll remind you of work, but it's different ships before they're done so it's also fun to watch."

Best not to serve her alcohol at this time. Drones don't hold their liquor terrible well, and it takes little more than a sip to get her intoxicated. Unfortunately, she's unaware of this, having never consumed the substance before. On a ship where alcohol was regulated and in most castes, strictly synthetic, there was very little reason to. (Especially when she wasn't involved in any of the betting pools.)

"Perhaps I can provide them with some assistance," she suggested, but quickly added, remembering the point of the tour: "In passing. Verbal guidance only."

	Tony laughed, "Alright, Worker Bee. Verbal Guidance only, in passing, on your way to more fun things." Then he motioned towards the exit. "Shall we?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	borg 2017-04-30 11:01 pm UTC (link)
	She seemed to consider the nickname as she stood and made her way towards the exit alongside him. "Crude, but appropriate." Drone, after all. Those were bees, too. She would allow it. For now. (Reply to this) (Parent)
