“A reason you were probably assigned to Endeavour,” Johnson said. “I think Starfleet likes to have officers with some more, shall we say, ‘varied’ experiences to be examples for the cadets.

“Indeed!” Liadra said with a laugh. “My methods are also not always obvious and sometimes I toss them right out the airlock. My hope is that I can adapt everything I’ve learned so far and apply all the bits and pieces where they are most useful.” She fixed her grey eyes on Johnson and leaned forward slightly. “I’m also perfectly happy to use slightly devious methods of getting people into my office should the need arise.”

“That’s great to hear,” Johnson said, chuckling. “Getting people into your office, I mean. Starfleet frowns on us throwing too many cadets out of airlocks. The Commandant will start to explain to me again that cadets don’t grow on trees…”

“I’m not sure that we do,” Liadra said with a light laugh. “But there are many other expressions that can add colour to a conversation when needed,” she said with a grin.

Liada considered the captain for a moment and then smiled softly. “I have only one request for you during this assignment together: remember I am an ally. There might be moments when it doesn’t seem like it, but I’m only ever here to help.”
