Leah Brahms

methodical technical detached precise
Dr. Leah Brahms is a propulsion theorist whose archival voice logs supply precise subspace field equations and Galaxy‑class engineering notes. Her recorded dictations function as technical blueprints and troubleshooting authority, consulted by Starfleet engineers when onboard diagnostics fail. Though encountered here as an unemotional, archival voice, she represents an enduring institutional knowledge base bridging academic theory and practical starship design. Her material shapes Geordi La Forge’s investigative pathway and offers a human focal point for solving complex propulsion anomalies.

Counter-Reaction Diagnosed & Brahms' Voice Unearthed

Recorded neutrality — professional, detached — which paradoxically creates an emotional tether for Geordi; the voice is informative rather than intimate.

Although not live, Dr. Leah Brahms participates through her archived dictation: a neutral, clinical voice that labels and frames subspace propulsion logs. Her recording provides authoritative metadata and the technical …

Blocked Logs — Leah's Restricted Design

Clinically calm and focused on technical facts; restrained reserve masks any personal investment while her unexpected gesture adds a moment of intimate clarity.

Leah appears as the holodeck's archival representation, delivers precise provenance for the dilithium chamber, answers Geordi's technical query about reactant injection, and—contrary to her archival distance—physically points to the specific …

Accelerated Reactant Injection — Leah's Guiding Hand

Clinically calm and professional with a subtle, unexpectedly intimate register when guiding Geordi to the exact configuration—no overt warmth but an intimacy born of technical clarity.

Leah provides measured, archival exposition about the chamber's origin, affirms that faster reactant injection is theoretically permissible, and—via the holodeck projection—physically indicates the specific path configuration required for Geordi's proposed …

Holographic Leah — Breakthrough and Temptation

Professional confidence with a flash of personal warmth when the synthesized persona engages — mildly defensive when challenged but ultimately collaborative.

Provides precise technical parameters (identifies L-452 to L-575), defends her lab calculations when Geordi questions them, suggests increasing parallel subspace field processor speed, and — after personality synthesis — responds …

Promellian Log Reveals Aceton Trap

Clinically confident with a hint of affront when questioned—warmed by the intimacy of the interaction but anchored in technical certainty.

As a synthesized Leah Brahms, she delivers technical parameters (systems L-452 through L-575), defends her original design work, recommends increasing the parallel subspace field processor's speed, and engages Geordi with …

Holodeck Shutdown Cuts Short Geordi–Leah Breakthrough

Focused and professional within the simulation; no visible panic — a steadying technical presence whose disappearance amplifies Geordi's isolation.

The holographic Leah confirms the processors' capacity for extra input and collaborates with Geordi on the reconfiguration plan before the simulation is terminated and she vanishes along with the drafting-room …

Leah's Revelation — The Computer Can Do It

Practical and composed on the surface; her admission carries quiet, clinical clarity that disrupts Geordi's expectations and prompts action.

Leah functions as a technical interlocutor and simulated propulsion authority: she suggests a time‑differential tactic, leans in close to Geordi, then delivers the pivotal admission that she 'isn't human,' reframing …

Erratic Simulation — When the Trap Refuses Logic

Calmly satisfied after the first success, then quietly concerned and alert when inconsistency appears — emotionally controlled rather than reactive.

Leah watches the simulation with measured attention, offers a short affirmation after the successful run ('There you go. We got out.'), and remains observationally calm when the repeated run fails, …
