Dira spent a bit of time packing her office, but the issue she had brought up with Sinclair sat foremost in her mind. Instinctively, she knew it was the right move if it was what he wanted. Dira suspected she was right on the mark with this one though and as such, made her way to Solomon’s office. She had put on the headband when she returned to her office after the bridge and was still wearing it now.

Pressing the chime, she wondered what pithy comment he’d toss her to commemorate her promotion. The thought made her smile.

The door slid open and the figure of the Chief Science Officer was.. well… what those who knew who the CSO was had come to expect. The office in disarray, the piles of PaDDs, strange bits of tech scattered everywhere, and the CSO himself leaned back in his chair with is feet on one of the only clear spots on the desk reading an actual book.

As the door opened, Kane didn’t look up. He simply said “If you expect me to call you ma’am or sir or captain… you know you are gonna be really disappointed, right?” and he gestured to the only empty chair in the room.

Myqian smirked as she took a seat and leaned back. “What, no salute? How disappointing.”

She looked around. “Your office looks how mine feels right now. Wonder how long it would take the tidy it all up?” she mused aloud. “You know, if you had a different space to be in or something.”

“Why? You thinking of cutting the new XO loose already and giving me the job? No thanks. And I’m pretty sure that would be the last act of yours as Captain. They’ll gut you and use your innards for streamers if you did that.” and he chuckled slightly before setting the book aside. He looked at her through the waterfall of hair on his face and said “What do you want? Headband not girly enough for ya? Sorry, I ran outta pink glitter.”

“Oh! Well, I’d be up for a formal style to use for events, but I’m not here about the headband.” Dira studied him for a moment. “I’ve been thinking about something and I need your input on the matter. Basically, it’s up to you. If you could go back to being solely the section head for Research and Development, and not have to deal with the personnel issues and admin for the whole department, would you be interested?”

Kane looked at her and was silent for a long time. “You… are asking me… if I would prefer to work by myself and not have to hand hold everyone through every. Single. Small. Admin. Screw up. Ever? That is what you are asking? For f^#ks sake… its like you don’t even know me anymore.”

Kane, CSO (maybe not!) / R&D

Having delivered her little spiel very matter-of-factly, her ebony eyes glittered. “What? You don’t just love negotiating with people on work schedules, and prioritizing projects and resources? Huh! Well, then I suppose I’m going to make your day then. Consider this an official shift in personnel. You’ll still be required to file a report but it will go to the CSO, and you’ll no longer have to compile that department report. Congrats!”
