Cadet Trenton finished her last report for the evening shift and stretched in the chair to relieve some of the built-up tension. The evening had been uneventful but educational and Cadet Ryan was still cracking jokes with her even as she was disarming at the armory. “Have a good morning Ryan.” Ashlyn was on her way out when the other Cadet got in front of her. “Hey Trenton, wanna head to that tavern program on the Holodeck and get to know each other off duty?” Trenton maintained her professional smile as she formed a response. “No can do today, I’ve got an appointment with the CSO.” Ryan blinked clearly off guard with that response, “How come? Did you do something stupid?” Trenton laughed at the young cadet and shook her head, “Someone’s got to report your jokes, they murder the crowd every night.” Ryan puts a hand over his heart and groans lightly, “You wound me, but alas, I shant make you late to your appointment.” The cadet moved out of the way and allowed Trenton to move on. She would have to deal with him again later.

Outside the office, Trenton took a moment to straighten her uniform up and checked her PaDD. Still five minutes early, this was acceptable, she pressed the chime on the door.

Rainns surveyed his office, he would need to bring in his personal items so that the room was more reflective of his personality, but he would have time for that later. He simply sat in his chair with a glass of water, waiting for Trenton to arrive on time. While he was patient by nature, he didn’t like being kept waiting in the dark, and so he was relieved when his chime rang at the agreed upon time. “Enter” he exclaimed from his desk, taking a sip of water and awaiting the cadet’s entrance.

Cadet Trenton entered the office, her expression schooled into a maks of neutrality, void of emotion positive or negative. She carefully stood behind the chair opposite Rainns and waited for further instructions. “Cadet Trenton reporting for our appointment sir.” In her right hand, the Cadet held a PaDD neatly cradled but still allowing her to maintain her position according to Starfleet Regulations. She’s clearly here to make an impression of some kind, be it good or bad is yet to be seen.

Rainns took a sip of water from his glass and motioned to the chair in front of him. “Take a seat Cadet.” When Trenton had made herself comfortable Rainns followed up sitting back in his chair with his hand together above his knees, “What can I do for you on this fine morning Ms. Trenton?”

Trenton moved around carefully and sat down in a controlled manner. “I am aware of your promotion to CSO, so I thought I’d help you get the initial stuff out of the way. Help you understand who I am and what I contribute while giving me a chance to understand your expectations. I hope by doing this I can assist your change in responsibility and give you a better impression as I’m aware our first encounter was off duty and probably not the best.” The cadet held the PaDD up to show to Rainns, “Do you mind if I take notes?”

Rainns shook his head, “Not at all, please help me understand the kind of person of you are.” He was very curious to see what the cadet had to say, and he himself would also be taking notes, mental, of course, but he listened with extreme attentiveness to what Trenton had to say.
