The doors to the bridge opened at the RTF CO walked onto the deck and to the CO’s office door. A gauntleted fist pressed the chime. They didn’t have an appointment, but they had been on the ship a month and other than their first ‘meeting’, Vonn had barely exchanged three words with the Captain.

That ended today.

There was a pause. On the bridge, MacReady hurriedly keyed in a silent message to Cobb. =^= It’s Vonn. =^=
Seconds later and the door to the ready room slid open, Zachariah sitting, dignified and alert, at his desk, a bottle of whiskey and two glasses laid out before him.

“Chief WO Vonn,” he announced redundantly, now rising to his feet. “Is there something I can do for you?”

• Captain Zachariah Cobb

Vonn stepped in and let the door slide shut behind them. “Yes, there is.” the voice from the helmet said. Vonn made no move to sit, just stood motionless inside the doorway.

“You can decide here and now if you are going to be a Captain to everyone on this ship, or just the one’s who… how do you humans say… ah yes… kiss your a$$.” There was a slight pause and the helmet cocked to the side slightly. “Your human phrasing really is most illustrative… if not exactly sanitary.”
