Katelyn’s assignment to the Chimera had been a surprise and the sheer size of the vessel was even more of a surprise. She devoted one of her first days aboard the ship to walking the decks, trying to get a feel for the layout in a more visceral way than she could looking at schematics. One of her many trips through the ship brought her to the COS’ office and she reached out for the door chime. Now was as good a time as ever to introduce herself to one of the department heads that had continued on from the previous command.

Riloc was reading of the preliminary reports from the first few shifts since he joined the Chimera when the bell chimed. ” Come in.” He called as he placed the PaDD on the desk.

The door to the office slid open, revealing the trim figure of the ship’s new commanding officer. Her red-trimmed uniform fit her neatly with its gleaming quintet of pips affixed to her collar. As soon as she could get a view of the room, black eyes swept over it with in a practiced fashion before resting on the COS. The eyes sparkled as she grinned at him. “I presume you’re Lieutenant Riloc?” she queried as she stepped through the office door.

Jacobs, CO

” That would be me.” Riloc stood from his chair and offered his hand. “You must be the new captain. Welcome aboard.” He gestured to the chair, “Please have a seat, can I get you a drink?”

“This is my first time on such a big ship. I have lots of kinks to work out with rotas and scheduling, it seems the former COS left in a hurry.” He smiled and sipped his tea.

Katelyn’s hand was cool to the touch, but her handshake was surprisingly firm for someone of not a particularly thick stature. She nodded in acknowledgement that Riloc had identified her correctly and sank into the chair, leaning back comfortably as she glanced around his office for a moment. “Whatever you’re having is fine with me,” she commented with a friendly smile. “I think we all have a lot of kinks to work out on a ship this big. Were you previously stationed on smaller vessels?”

Riloc stood and walked over to the replicator “Coffee black.” He waited a few seconds as the drink materialized and handed it over to the captain.

He took a sip of his coffee it had cooled quite a bit but was still good. “Before this posting I had only served on the USS Okifor a science vessel and that was a small Obreth-class ship. I was there for about 13 years. Needless to say, Captain this is a much bigger ship.” He smiled.

“What about you captain? I imagine you have quite the storied career.” He smiled from his mouth and it shone through his eyes.
