::Unlike most people she was actually glad no-one had been there to meet her, she'd been panicking a little on the journey and the time she had to let herself get used to the space let the first thrill of nerves calm down.

As she drew back her eyes flicked up to the person's ears. oOThank goodness.Oo she relaxed slightly as she saw the pointed tips of a Vulcan. Now she knew she shouldn't feel intimidated.:: | <nowiki>::</nowiki>Cara's hand shook a little as she reached to open the door, having been leaning on a nearby wall she then picked up her bag, untangled her hair from her single pip again and ventured outside.
