The doors slid open to the Science Lab and a large uniform topped with a proportionally sized and hairless green head came through. As he looked around he took in the various experiments and displays. He looked towards a passing Scientist and said “Hey. I dont want to intrude, but I need a few minutes if the Science Chief’s time. Could you go get them, please?” he asked politely.

Hammor, Ops

The young man looked shocked a moment, but he recovered swiftly and smiled brightly. “Lieutenant Simms is in her office, Sir. I’ll be happy to show you.” He turned and held a hand towards the office across the room. A young woman was sitting behind her desk, one hand dancing over the console and two PaDDs before her while her other hand was fiddling with a small cluster of errant strands of hair about the width of a stylus, winding it in and out between her fingers unthinking.

He stepped ahead of the man, glancing back once, “Would you like me to introduce you, Sir? I’m sorry I don’t know who you are.”

The big man smiled and said “Lieutenant Hammor, the new Operations Chief, and that would be great, thank you.” with a friendly smile.

Hammor, Ops

As they got closer, Hammer would hear soft humming coming from the office. The woman looked up just as the two reached the door. “Chief, Lieutenant Hammer, the new Ops Officer, Ma’am.” Lican smiled at her almost mischeviously where the Ops Chief couldn’t see, then softened his gaze to professional before nodding at the man and stepping back. “I’ll leave you two to it, then. Play nice,” he teased then laughed softly and walked away.

As the young man disappeared and managed to corral the other two scientists in the bay into a further location, Priscilla stood up and smiled as she stood up and moved to the side of the desk, her hand rising to offer him a seat. “Please, come in. It’s a pleasure. But I am sure you could have sent for me. I can think of more pleasurable places to meet if you are into containment fields and unknown specimines.” She laughed slightly. “Can I get you something to drink?” She reached up and turned the twisted loose strand of hair a couple times then tucked it back behind her ear and under another strand.

The big Orion flashed a smile, startlingly whit teeth against dark green lips, and said “Oh, no thanks. I’m good. I just wanted to come by and introduce myself and see if you have any outstanding supply needs that the Quarter Master may have missed? Oh, and it’s not Hammer. Its Hammor.” and he chuckled. He didnt bring up that he had relieved the Quarter Master the day before because he was an incompetent and lazy seat filler.

HammOr, Ops

“My apologies. Licons accent sometimes gets the better of me and I assume he is mispronouncing.” She nodded her head respectfully. “Lieutenant Hammor. As to things we need, sadly, there are several things. It seems either the last Science Chief wasn’t aware of her lack of things, or delivery was never made. I can get you the list now if you wish, or send it to you later. If you have other stops, I will simply send the requisition to you.” She smiled and shook her head. “I have to admit, I didn’t expect Ops to actually come down here. Last two ships I was on, they seemed to prefer the confines of their own office, the bridge or places where the Command Crew hung out, instead of where they were needed.”

She crossed her arms and tilted her head. “So why ‘are’ you here? Is this a one time purusal of the kingdom you have inherited or are may I come to you when I have needs in the future that seem to slip thru the cracks?” She was smiling and there was a hint of teasing mischief in her eyes and the uptick of her lip. She was, by no means, insulting him in any way.
