“I see nothing here of concern, Cmdr.” Bonner said, turning back to him. “I’ve signed off, clearing you for duty. Xavier said you wanted to speak with Dr Walker. Is there anything I can answer or do for you before he arrives?”

Bonner/Frigga

Sinclair scratched Frigga and said “Well, I was hoping to introduce myself, find out a little bit about the staff here… you know, the basics. Do ya have a few minutes, Doctor?”

Sinair, XO

Bonner nodded, “Of course, Cmdr.” She flipped the power off on the biobed. “We have a small conference room this way or would you prefer to stay here?”

Frigga had lowered herself and stretched out on the buibed next to him enjoying the scratches. Nudging his hand with her nose if he stopped.

Bonner, AMO

“No need for the conference room,” Brad said, walking ever-so-slightly-faster-than-normal into the ward, such that his lab coat slightly billowed out from behind him. He assessed the new arrival with a slightly furrowed brow and a couple hesitant blinks.

“My office, both of you, if you don’t mind?” he said, pivoting on his heel expertly and heading in that direction himself.

Apparently Now Makes Dramatic Entrances

The XO looked at Walker’s retreating form and blinked. “Um… sure, Doctor.” he said with a slight furtow to his brow. Abrupt, to say the least. Royal thought as he set his feet on the floor and indicated fir Bonner to lead the way.

Sinclair. XO

Alexis blinked, giving Walker a curious look. Apparently his entrance and exit was as unexpected to her. “Xavier, take Frigga back to sit with Daamu. Galen will call her for her next appointment.”

“No problem Dr.” The nurse pat his leg once and snapped his fingers, “Come along, Frigga.” Frigga huffed out a deep doggie sigh. She nudged Sinclair’s hand once and then hopped off the bed and followed the nurse.

Bonner turned and followed Walker. The offices were past the waiting are in an administrative hall that contained a small break room, conference room, and the head nurse’s office. Bonner entered and took a seat in front of the desk.

Bonner, AMO

Brad was standing by his replicator, punching up his first caffeine boost of the morning.

“Can I get either of you anything?” he asked the two new arrivals, one familiar, one much less so.

Chief of Staff

“Aye. Coffee would be grand, thank you.” Sinclair said as he walked in and looked around.

Sinclair , XO

Bonner looked up from the PaDD and whatever she was studying, “Ice water, please.” Then she was scrolling through the PaDD again. Of course this was not unusual behavior for Alexis.

Bonner, AMO

Both drinks were quickly procured and set out, as Brad placed his own mug on his desk but didn’t take his own seat, instead opting to half-lean against the front of his desk. He took a measured look at Sinclair again.

“You know, it’s been quite a while since I really had to look up at anyone,” he remarked.

Chief of Staff

Sinclair didn’t sit, but picked up the coffee with a nod of thanks and said “I get that a lot.” with a small chuckle. He took a sip and then slid his fingers through the handle and gripped the mug. “Sickbay is impressive, Doctor. Remarkable, even. I am impressed. I thought the medical suite on the Saracen was top -of-the-line,but this puts it to shame.”

Sinclair, XO

Brad nodded. “I would have killed for a suite like a Pendragon’s 20 years ago when I first became a CMO on the old Agamemnon, not that a Phoenix-class sickbay was anything to sneeze at, or even the Maverick-class Vanguard that replaced her. But if you think this is impressive, you should see Dr. Bonner’s main haunt on Deck 12. It’s smaller than this suite, but it still puts a main Fleet ship’s Sickbay to shame.”

That got Alexis’s attention. The Saracen. She studied him as she thought back through all her conversations with Hannah. Had she ever mentioned a Royal Sinclair? Not that she recalled. His last medical check was from Medical command, maybe they weren’t there on board at the same time. Hmm she might ask Hannah about it later.

Bonner, AMO

“I’ll say, you seem a little on the younger side for an XO,” Brad said, hopefully in a neutral tone, but a hint of skepticism still bled through.

Chief of Staff

Sinclair smiled and as the brogue-accented words rolled out, it was obvious he caught the implication. “Well, you’re nae the first to say somethin’ along those lines, Doctor. Heard it my first time as a Security Chief. Heard it when I was first made a Counselor. Heard it again at my doctoral defenses; and then again when I was made Chief Tactical Officer of the Saracen. And aye, this is ma first time as an XO. But I’ve served under some of the best Execs in Star Fleet, and I’ve learned a lot from them. And besides… we all gotta start somewhere, right? You weren’t always a CMO or Chief of Staff, now were ya?” The smile never left his face, nor did his tone convey anything other than a sense of humor about the whole thing.

Sinclair, XO
