Lieutenant Austin C. "Trip" Travis III

It's a good job. It's not commanding a starship, but I work hard and enjoy it.

Yeah.

Ah, okay. Yeah, that happens. Workaholism.

In trouble?

And I love mine.

That's a good way to look at it.

Good.

Probably not because of your job here, but that just makes you appreciate when you can even more, right?

// Good night, everyone. I'm exhausted. I'm going to call it a night.

That's how I feel about my wife. She's amazing, so sweet and so beautiful. I love her so much. 🥰

Oh, I have no doubt. You're definitely a fighter.

// Paul Stamets would love this.

See you around, Franklin.

I won't ask which one because I'm sure starbases in the future are different, but she sounds nice.

See you around. Hey, I didn't catch your name.

What's she like?

Okay, thanks.

Well, the social center of the station is Quark's Bar and Holo-Arcade, and we have all sorts of shops, restaurants, and stuff like that.

Yeah. So...do you have anyone in your time? Steven has Yuri, but I'm sure Varg's retired by the 33rd century.

Alright.

Yep, this is DS9, the funhouse of the Federation.

Yes, I'm Lieutenant Austin Travis, but my friends call me Trip. Nice to meet you too.

Right, so I won't ask.

Doctor Zimmerman? Of course I've heard of them! I was their nurse when they operated on a friend of mine.

Oh? That's cool.

I won't cheat by asking you what name we're going to pick.

Ah, okay. Who adopted you?

Oh, I'm sure we will, but it's hard to think of one.

Zardian...I'm not familiar with that species.

She's doing well. We're still trying to pick a name for our son.

Are you an android?
