Lieutenant Junior Grade Kyle Anders approached the XO’s Quarters with half as much caution as he would have done a few days prior. He took a deep breath, taking a moment to straighten out his uniform, and clicked the room chime.

-Lieutenant Junior Grade Kyle Anders: Chief of Security-

“Mgleter,” came the unusual reply. Whatever the word was supposed to be, the computer clearly interpreted it as permission to enter, and the doors opened to the XO’s quarters.

The XO’s quarters had a case open up in the middle of room by the entrance, with various devices and some type of full-suit clothing piled nearby. As for the XO himself, his sleeves were rolled up, and as the XO turned around, Kyle would see that his eyes were covered with some sort of goggles and a round device was sticking out of his mouth with tubes connected to another device on the ground.

“Grbler mntk,” Eric said, holding up his left finger while his right hand removed device from his mouth.

“There we go,” Eric said, as he removed the goggles from his face. “Sorry about that, Lieutenant. My sister was asking me to go through some of our parents’ belongings that I’ve held on to, and found some of their old diving equipment. Couldn’t resist trying on one of these old diving regulators out again…”

“Anyway, congratulations on the promotion, Lieutenant. What can I do for you?”

-Cmdr. Eric Holmman, XO

Kyle chuckled, “No problem Commander, just thought I’d check in, it’s been quite a week.”

“Well, being accused of murder is meant to only be a rare occurence for XOs,” Eric explained. “Starfleet frowns a bit if it happens too often.”

He had a grin on his face as he said it, but certainly it was a trying experience for the XO, and it might have shown. He took another curious look at the old diving equipment in his hand, before returning it to the crate in the room. “And how are you finding the new role?”

-Cmdr. Eric Holmman, XO

Kyle smiled, “So I’ve heard. I must admit, it felt strange at first to be giving the orders rather than receiving them, but I feel like I’m slowly getting used to it. Need a hand with the diving gear?” Kyle had a cheeky tone in his voice.
