Starfleet Officers Sulu And Chekov In Gold Uniforms

Hikaru Sulu, Pavel Chekov, gold dress uniforms, Starfleet officers, shoulder to shoulder, memorial service, cargo bay background, not speaking, shared silence, calm neutral expressions, Lieutenant Hikaru Sulu and Ensign Pavel Chekov, both in Starfleet dress uniforms — gold for Sulu, gold for Chekov — standing shoulder to shoulder against the wall of a cargo bay during a memorial service. Sulu is Japanese-American, lean, thirties, with calm and deliberate features. Chekov is Russian, younger, early twenties, with a round face and a dark mop of curly hair, looking younger than he is. They are not speaking. They are not looking at each other. They are both looking forward at the service with expressions that are carefully neutral — but there is a quality to the space between them, a kind of ease, the ease of two people who share a knowledge they are not saying out loud. Wide-medium shot, from the side, the cargo bay and the crowd visible in the background. Slightly underlit from the side. Star Trek TOS aesthetic, painterly, retrofuturism
