Sample post:
The only sound at the station came from the transport as it groaned and hissed steam from its exhaust ports as it began to power up engines for departure from the planets surface. Octavia watched as passengers began to line up as the transports opening hatch; she then turned her attention to her family who were lined up in front of her to say their farewells.
Starting with her mother Octavia hugged and received a kiss on the cheek from her mother who spoke to her telepathically.
"I love you sweet child. Please look after yourself and remember to contact us once a week."
"I will mother." Octavia replied with an eye roll.
She had to stand on her tip-toes in order to wrap her arms around her dads neck who slid a weighted duffle bag off his shoulder and onto hers.
"The universe is a big place. I envy you Octavia." Her father said smiling wide. Although Thaddeus dreamt of going off on a grand trek through the universe he'd never left Betazed. Being a father and running the family mechanic business kept his life busy enough.
Finally Octavia knelt down in front of her ten-year old sister Dorian and spoke out loud to her since her sister had development issues with her telepathy. "Love you squirt. I'll send you soon okay?" Her little sister just nodded and gave a tearful hug goodbye.
Additional information:
Octavia has a small round neuro-implant on her left temple; that allows her to suppress her powerful telepathic ability. The implant can be completely shut off but also has level adjustments allowing her to control the intensity of her telepathic abilities. Like any electronic device the neuroinhitor can be interfered. The implant is hard wired into her paracortex and cannot be removed. The faceplate of the device can be removed for maintenance purposes.
