It had been a hectic few days since Captain Shock was suddenly called away. The sudden loss of Shock and Myles replacing him made for an interesting experience. Adam of course, took it in stride. After five years on the Leviathan, he was more than used to things going, if not wrong, then at least oddly. He was mildly curious as to why Captain Myles had called for him.

He checked the PaDD he always carried, the one with the access to the ship’s internal systems, the one he used to adjust the lights so he could hide in corners and appear from seemingly thin air. People always took his stoic wooden expression as him being a cold man, but sneaking around in shadows, hidden behind forcefields was something he only did out of enjoyment; it served no practical purpose beyond maybe unnerving people. The Padd showed that there were only a handful of people ahead, so he made the lights flicker to get their attention, then created a forcefield bubble around him, improvised invisibility that only worked in the dark and walked past confused crewmen unseen. He repeated this a few times. He got inside the turbolift and requested the CIC.

Before the lift opened again, he pocketed the PaDD and smoothed his hair. When it opened, his hands were clasped behind his back, and he walked forward, his face a wooden mask that showed no particular expression. He walked through, head moving slightly as he took in and registered the on-duty staff. He stopped in front of the ready room and pressed the chime.

Miles smiled and stood, Starfleet had yanked her captain out from underneath her and then mentioned that the soonest and XO would be available would be four months. This ship could not wait three days let alone three months. “Come” she said giving her black uniform a sharp tug down. Sometimes she wished she could wear a skirt, the stupid pants were always where they should not be.

Adam stepped in and gave the room a brief scan “Ma’am” He said with a slight nod “You called?” There was a slight, curious inflexion in his tone.

“Please come in, have a seat.” she said with a smile. “Can I get you something?” she asked her hand motioning to the replicator.

Adam quirked an eyebrow but took a seat “No, ma’am, thank you” He crossed his legs and interlaced his fingers, resting his hands on his lap. Showing comfort during any situation was a quintessential skill for his line of work, especially when dealing with senior officers when he was unsure or out of the know.
