Jean Hugo had, remarkably, managed to avoid everyone on the USS Chimera - and he wasn’t sure how it had happened. Arriving a few hours ago, Jean had stepped off of the transporter pad in a line of other personnel joining the ship. Unbeknownst to him, however, he made a right turn on Deck 8 instead of a left because he was too busy reading an article on his PaDD. This mistake had now cost him two hours of wandering around the ship.

Jean stepped out of the turbolift onto Deck 23. In the back of his head, he knew it would probably be easier to just say “Bridge” and zoom up there and get someone to assist him, but now it felt just a little like he was somewhere he shouldn’t be. In the store after it’s closed - that’s what it felt like. No one around, really no noise, just him trying to find his office. Which office was it again? He couldn’t remember if he was going to work out of the Security Office or the Counseling Center… Maybe it was both split between time? What an idea, having to navigate the corridors and hallways trying to figure out which office he was supposed to be in at which time. As he walked down the corridors looking at the nameplates next to the doors he thought lazily about the possibility of using point-to-point transporters between the two.

Jean decided he would go through the door at the end of the hall… As it opened he found himself in a largeish room with a long table and 10 chairs. “What a nice office this would be,” he said out loud to himself. Scanning the room he spotted a replicator and approached it, “decaf sweet tea, s’il-vous-plaît.” Once it stopped shimmering, he took the glass and sat down at the center of the table and stared at his tea. “Okay. Deck 23 might be a bust. Now how long do we sit here? Do we just wait until someone stumbles through the door or…”

He let out a huff. He knew he was going to have to ask the Computer for help and he wasn’t pleased with it. How does it look for the new head of Security to immediately get lost on his own ship, and looking for his office no less?

“Okay we’ll wait a few minutes and if no one shows up we’ll ask the thing.”

OOC: Excited to be writing again! I will try to look for an entry spot in the interim sim. -Thomas

Crewman Yu Sless strolled around a nearby corner, spying the newcomer he nervously shifted, “Er, is there something I can help you find sir?” He voiced his question, rather hesitantly too. There was a large influx of new senior officers on board, maybe Captain Andreassen lit a fire under someone’s butt to fill the last of the vacancies. Having only encountered the new skipper a few brief times, Sless was no expert, but she seemed like a woman who suffered very little in the way of fools.

~NE Sless~

Hugo looked up at the crewman and raised his eyebrows, “Ah, hello Crewman, you’re the first live person I’ve seen on the Chimera since I was severed from my embarking group.” Hugo looked down at his glass and finished off his tea.

“Crewman I am Lt. Jean Hugo, I have been ordered to this ship to assume responsibilities for both the Security and Counseling offices. I was trying to find my office…” he furled his brow, “one of them anyway, and seem to have gotten mixed up. Perhaps you could escort me to one of those offices - or perhaps lead me to whomever I should report to. Unfortunately this was a last minute order I received, and I wasn’t told who I would actually be reporting to. I’ve just been trying to avoid engaging the Computer.”
