On a quiet evening on the Citadel before the end of leave, Valerie approached the entrance to the kzari embassy's residences, dressed in her dress uniform, hair carefully styled and braided, make-up flawlessly and meticulously applied. She gently squeezed Cynna's little claw in her hand, smiling proudly at her daughter, who had been given the liberty to choose any outfit fitting for the night, even a little acting ensign dress uniform.
"We are almost ready, dear. We just need to wait for your fazher. Excited?"

Cynna walked beside her mother trying to contain her excitement, Ramal had told her how important such an invite was for his parents. She was determined to be happy for him and her parents, she wanted to make her friend happy as well. She had spent along time since she woke up trying to decide just what to wear and settled on her new uniform since Captain Liz had promoted her from little kid to ship officer person! She was determined as well not disappoint Momma and Daddy since they were both Starfleet heroes, she had to look like one too to show her new friends family how important her new family was to her now.
Her large eyes opened wider with further excitement as they approached the Kzari building..the place where all the important Kzari lived and worked. She felt her Momma's soft hand grip her own little talons tightly bring forth a happy soft hiss from her...she looked up as her mother spoke to her...
Cynna nodnoded energetically. "Oui Momma! I am very much so! ": she looked down at her own little dress uniform which was proper for a brandy new ensign..except she had chosen an equally white pleated party skirt that floofed up some around her little knees and matching solid white leggings in lieu of the standards trousers.
"Do i look proper and right Momma??"

"Quite so, dear! Just a word of advice. As an acting ensign, zis is somezhing gou are allowed, but usually, ze skirt is single colour like mine... but I am quite certain Ramal and 'is family will not mind."
She gave the top of Cynna's snout a kiss, andlooked around for Alex, secretly worried about his behaviour following the whole Nine fiasco.

Little Cynna looked confused as she looked down at her pleated party skirt and canted her head in confusion.
"But it is one color Momma..." She looked up "It is white...like my top?"

Cynna eeped and tried to rapidly smooth out the pleats with her little talon.
"I'm so sorry Momma..oh no what do we do??" She smiled hearing the second part. "It is lovely..so then it is okay??"
"You and Daddy will not be dissapointed??"

As if called Alex showed up with a freshly trimmed beard and his long hairs packed in his on-duty half ponytail.
"Sorry for the wait, had something to finish up. Also.... who knew drycleaning would be a bitc--- hassle so close after new year."
*He looks at Cynna*
"Well aren't you the best looking acting ensign out here."

Cynna smiled and let go a warm excited little hiss "Daddy!"
She spun around for him and pleased by his approval held her arms up for a hug...

Valerie smiled at the little dino.
"You are looking lovely, dear. I am certain everyone will be most charmed."
She then gave Alex an acknowledging nod, letting Cynna have her moment of well-deserved affection from Alex.

Cynna blinked her little multi-faceted eyes and canted ehr head some as she reviewed each parent in turn...very much the little officer she was acting to be and ten looked back to Alex.
"Yes Daddy!" She eeped and covered her littlesnout with her small taloned hands. "Sorry!!..."
"Yes Daddy, Sir!'

"Why, Cynna, I dare say zere is little need to be so official wiz us." Valerie said, clearly impossibly endeared by her attempts nonetheless.
"Let us go." She offered her hand to Cynna's small one and lead inside, nodding to the guards at the reception and showing IDs for her and Cynna.
"We are 'ere to visit Supreme Kommander Domal, we should be expected?"

Alex also showed his ID
"Like our IDs say, Lieutent-Commander Alexander Sharpe, Lieutenant-Commander Valerie Chalons and acting ensign Cynna Chalons."
He said Cynna's name with pride as he patted her head.
"If there is a secret handshake to be done....I think I still remember the one I had from childhood."

As the family trio Approached both Starnznavy Shocktroopers snapped to formal apttention holding their rifles in a formal salute to honor the allied officers. Unsettling yet a sign of the times these soldiers were not in formal dress but in full Kzari 'battle rattle' armor and gear. Their pale faces obscured by their cold helemts as they held themselves rigid before the family of Starfleert officers. The rigid formality was broken up by a warm female voice with a heavily accented Kzari accent.
"Velcome to the Kzari Embassy" The vocie greeted them. "How may I be of service?"
A shorter yet no less fit than her shocktroopers stood the officer of the watch. In lieu of the usual helmet she worn a crips formal Officer's cap with her armor and bore only an Kzari officer's side arm in a holster on her hip. Her armor bore the rank of a Shocktruppen Leftenant. Her smile held a warm tone as each of them identified themselves and offered ID. She was quite charmed when Cynna held up her 'officer's' ID card signed by Captain Razzor.
"Acting Ensign Cynna Chalóns of the USS Gigantes' Sharpe - Chalóns" Cynna said with as much formality and pride as she could despite being very very nervous.
The Leftenant beamed down at the minutautre officer obviously charmed by such formality in the alien child. She cleared her throat anddrew a breath and assumed a foraml posutre herself at this and said "Velkome Kommanders and Acting Ensign...I am Leftenant Elsia, I vas informed of ytour expected arrival...please..follow me, it vould be an honor to escort you.."
Stepping back inside shegestured for them to folllow leading them through an elegant reception garden,filled with an alien flora and fauna that must have been atone time partof thelush world that Kzar has been. All around the area however were Starnznavy Shocktroopers armed with rifles and in battle armor..though manning their offical posts as if embassey honor guards in dress uniform. A curious notice however..the troopers wereof different sizxes and shapes in phsycial bulk, showing despite their all black uniforms not all of thetroopers were of the home race of Kzari..but there were protecterate kzari races represented here as embassy guards..though they no longer wore the crimson variation of their uniforms which once denoted 'second class Kzari'.
Leftenant Elsia led them up the marble stairs to a lavish residence and into yet another lovely courtyard garden where a lovely Kzari woman stood by the steps leading up into a elegant residence. Her demaonor was one of regal beauty, her long shock white hair tied however into a simple graceful pony tail that hungover one shoulder. Her gown simple yet lovely as well as she almost appeared toglide over to greet them, speaking before their escort could formaly anounce them.
"Velcome to our home Valerie and Alexander, Miss Acting Ensign" She formally saluted the littlestofficer only and then winked down to little Cynna who giggled in return but offered back a formal Kzari salute to the lady, she lookedback to ehr parents and contiued.."I am Lucina" Her voice as gracious as it was informal. "I am sure..ve can dispense with such formalities as rank...I have none and zis is not a diplomatic affair...it is a meeting of family"
"Vould you not agree?"

Valerie's eyes passed over the shocktroopers, giving them a nod, before allowing Cynna to introduce them to the leftenant, her official demeanour being broken up by a smile as the little acting ensign did so, placing a gentle hand upon her shoulder to try and soothe her nerves.
"It is an 'onour to be 'ere, leftenant." She responded to the officer of the watch, following her, once more nodding to the shocktroopers around, yet stopping, for just a miniscule moment, to take the leaves of an exotic kzari palm in her hand. "A Gezichpalme... charming." She said, more to herself, admiring the plant's size for the shortest moment, having been given a Kzari Face Palm as a Christmas gift by a dear friend.
Once they found themselves at the residence's courtyard, Valerie crossed her hands between her back, first waiting for the youngest family member's introduction, then giving Lucina a soft, friendly smile. "It is lovely to be 'ere and to see you again. We zhank you kindly for ze invitation. And I agree, let us not zhrow 'alf ze evening away to protocol. It would be much more enjoyable for all of us, I believe, particularly ze youngest ones."
