Joseph Rainns walked down the corridor with a stride. His face was painted by a smirk and his eyes were narrowed in a confident glare that befell several of his crewmates as he passed by. His confidence was authentic, having been promoted straight out of the academy, and then solving a murder, he felt skilled at what he did. In terms of his life plan, the young man was on track. A fiancé, a COS job, and nothing but positive prospects ahead for him. The next step on his ladder to success was Ark Angel. Joseph very much anticipated his own success here, he just needed to convince the commander to expect that as well.

He arrived at the proper office, took a deep breath, and pressed the chime.

A long pause was had by Rainns as no reply came forth. Finally an NLt behind him at one of the auxiliary support science stations spoke up. “..Captain is currently in the briefing room, Lieutenant. She had a stack of PADD work a mile high if you ask me so probably is using the extra table space to sort through it all.” He said gesturing to the other door across the way to the briefing room.

NLt Cluey

Rainns groaned. “Thank you.” He said to the lieutenant. He took a few exaggerated steps over to the briefing room. An officer who did her own thing, fantastic. Rainns was a stickler for the rules, and a commanding officer just using rooms at her pleasure for whatever she deemed necessary annoyed him. Rainns wasn’t even sure that there was a chime to the briefing room, he had never thought to look. Fortunately he found one and pressed it. “Take two.” he muttered to himself.

=/\= Enter! =/\= Came a crisp reply.

When Rainns would enter he would find the briefing table askew with easily 30 or more PADDs each in the process of being cataloged and lined up in piles for some later purpose. Turning from the stack of PADDs the Romulan ranked Fleet Captain stood at 6‘2 in height. She was of a firm build, femine, yet strong of body and mind with a natural charisma that was approachable yet disciplined in stance.

”..Ah how can I help you Lieutenant?” She asked. Obviously on a ship this size she could not immediately recognize every one of her officers or their positions.

Rainns stepped in, observed the room and his captain, and bit back a sarcastic reply to his commanding officer’s questions. “I’m just coming to report that I have safely boarded,” he responded to Andone’s question. He needed to get back Sharah as quickly as possible, so the quicker this meeting went the happier he would be. “So if you will just certify that I reported in I will be on my way.”
