Posted by Commander Relann Fell-Drayke (Executive Officer) in Captain’s Quarters- Purposeful Procrastination
Relann shifted the bag on her shoulders. It was a simple cloth affair with some objects inside of an indeterminate shape- at least from a distance. Cradled in one hand was a small stack of PADDs on the off chance that they actually did the performance reviews they needed to. And in any case it maintained that pretence long enough for her to move through the corridors.

Arriving at Kelly’s she adjusted the sleeveless ice blue tunic that revealed the white stripes on her brown arms. opting for something other than her usual linen dresses, the tunic was layered over slim fitting navy trousers made with a thick stretchy material. Making sure she didn’t drop anything, Relann freed one hand to tap the chime, hoping she wasn’t too early.

Fell-Drayke, XO

“Coming,” Kelly said walking to the door. Normally she would just yell come in or enter but tonight she actually wanted to greet the person behind the door.

Ten minutes ago Kelly had kicked Ian out of their quarters with the bogus excuse of having to confer with the XO over sensitive material he was not classified to view. Kelly could barely hold back the grin remembering how Ian leaned against the wall, looked at her like with one eye brow raised and said “really cause I sign your name better than you now.”

After a bit of sweet talking and promises to make up the hours he would spend like a homeless man wandering the halls until Kelly comes he could return Ian left wearing his hallmark grin.

Opening the door Kelly held a five pound chocolate bar in one hand and a huge bag of chips in the other. Her smile faded a hint looking at Relann. “You look fabulous. I said fat pants,” Kelly laughed gesturing to her large flannel pj pants and a sweatshirt that has to be Ian’s. “Girl we are going shopping next,” Kelly laughed gesturing the woman in the room.

Captain Kelly Shultz.
