Personal Log

 

Well diary today a force of nature arrived on the Enterprise... Special Emissary K'Ehleyr.  Now I knew Worf was capable of strong even violent emotion but what I sensed between them when she walked into the room was amazing!  I thanked all Klinghon Gods that I was seated for the emotional force that was unleashed. It was almost tangible.

 

I have felt that only once before. That was the day Will and I met on the Enterprise at Farpoint.  I had not thought that emotions could be so intense.  But I digress.

 

I offered to escort her to her quarters.  We had much in common not the least being that we are both half human.  Now that I found fascinating!  My father was human while it was her mother who was the human half.  It is not often I meet mixed persons like me. Well not like me… a Betazed is far from a Klinghon but I found it compelling never the less. I really wish that we had had time to discuss the unique nature of being mixed. 

 

I got the sense however that she had only embraced one aspect of her heritage. I may be wrong.

 

As usual the nature of our latest mission left little time for personal encounters to be pursued.  What was it this time?  Oh only a little thing as a Klinghon warship from the past when the Empire was at war with the Federation, had been placed in suspended animation and was about to thaw out and attack anything remotely Federation.  The enterprise as usual had to deal with the situation.  To be fair the situation was not that simple … there were millions of lives at stake.

 

With so much at stake I couldn’t help but think of my Imzadi.

 

Would this be the mission where I lost him?  I know I know how can you loose what you do not have?  We are friends and no longer lovers but that can change in the twinkling of an eye.  A Riker eye. 

 

Truth be told I still love him and I sense that he had strong feelings for me but he has learnt how to mask them and I am not always sure at what I sense.  There are days that pass so easily then there are days when it is difficult to work around him.  The arrival of K'Ehleyr and her interaction with Worf has made me take a look at this relationship. Yes yes I know I’m always going on about the relationship no matter how platonic it is… but that is what it is for now.  Maybe one day.

 

It is only fair that I relate how the problem of the awakening Klinghons was resolved.   K'Ehleyr and Worf impersonated command crew on the Enterprise the Federation Flagship.  When you stop to think about it … it was a brilliant idea.  They work well together. If only they got past their baggage.

 

Who am I to talk!

 

I suspect that we will see more of K'Ehleyr.
