Posted by Lieutenant Commander Drake Marshall (Surgical Chief/ Emergency Medicine) in Meeting with the CO
Drake was on his way to the CO’s ready room. He had gotten a page a day before, telling him where to be and when but not much else. He didn’t know why but supposed that Command- Captain Myqian didn’t have sufficient time to include that. Nonetheless he moved through the halls and over towards the Captain’s ready room. He was glad, in a way, if there had to be someone else in that office, that it was someone he knew on some level or another. Maybe it shouldn’t have mattered, but it did. He reached the door and pressed the chime.

-Lt Cmdr Drake Marshall, M.D.

“Come on in,” Dira said, her voice sounded neutral through the door comm.

An office space said something about the occupant and Dira’s was no different, though she hadn’t been in there very long. To the right of the entrance was the captain’s desk, a couple chairs for guests, and a replicator tucked into the corner, while a sitting area took up the space in front of the an expanse of windows opposite the main door. The sitting area comprised of a navy blue sofa that had a gentle curve to it. On each side of it, nestled between the windows and where it curved out was a side table with a potted plant. One had trails of forked leaves and the other had tall dark green stems lined with alternating heart shaped leaves that had a blue hue.

Other small touches had been added that were Dira’s, though only a few so far. Aside from the plants, there was a round and squat pot in a deep blue colour with sweeps of white and green paint. It sat on the shelf behind the desk, along with a picture of an older brown skinned woman with a heart shape face, natural black kinky curls not unlike Dira’s, and the dark eyes of a Betazoid. On the other side of the pot was a brown skilled Haliian man with a greying moustache, short dark hair and a receding hairline that made his forehead ridges and bulges more prominent.

She was standing in front of her desk, holding a mug. Dira gave him a smile. “Ahh, Dr. Marshall, come on in and have a seat,” she said, gesturing behind her to the sitting area. “Can I get you anything?”

Captain Myqian, CO
