The PADD tapped against her thigh as the lift moved through the ship. This was one of those times where she was glad she was stopping there and no where else. Her mind was too preoccupied with the contents of the PADD and the events surrounding it. When the doors opened, she steadied herself with a breath and headed off in search of her quarry.

She pressed the chime to the office, knowing Kane was there and wondering what mood she’d find him in today.

The door slid open to reveal… chaos. The space was large and in utter disarray by Star Fleet standards. Everywhere were bits of tech in various states of disrepair. Three long workbenches sat evenly spaced within the room; each seemingly dedicated to various kinds of research ranging from technological to chemical to… was that a holo of a ancient language tablet… amongst several others.

In the center of the… ‘office’… sat the shirtless, heavily tattooed form of the Ogawa’s resident Research and Development Chief and all -around a$$hole, Solomon Kane. He was laid out on the deck on his back, and streaks of carbon obscured some of the tattoos on his torso. His head was underneath something resembling a cross between a transporter induction housing and a massive waffle iron. Red pylons glowed softly, giving the figure underneath a rather menacing appearance.

“What?!” came the terse acknowledgement of the ship’s Captain’s presence.

Dira took in the whole space and the man with keen eyes and broke into a grin, holding back an outright chuckle. “And you gave me hell for the state of my quarters that one time.” The truth was that yes, that day had bene worse because she had bene in emotional distress for two days and failed to do anything amounting to adulting, but most days her place was messy. Few people knew she was so untidy, but she was a captain now and had a romantic partner who came over so she was at least making an effort now.

“I’d ask if you had a minute, but I’m sure you’d say no, so instead I’m just going to ask for a few minutes of your time.” Dira waved the PADD. “It’s slightly urgent.”

Kane moved something, the red glow dimmed, he said ‘Oh sh!+’ softly and moved it back causing the glow to increase back to it’s previous level. “Gimme a minute.” and he waved an antique torque wrench towards the closed door to his office. “Go in there.” and the arm disappeared back under the contraption.

The office was a reflection of the owner… chaotic, irreverent, dangerous, and perhaps unstable. Things were strew everywhere save for the chair behind the desk. In the only other chair in the room sat three photon grenades taped together and covered in rainbow glitter.

A few minutes later, Kane (now with a black t-shirt with white letters that read Back off, man. I’m a Scientist. on the front and He slimed me. on the back) walked in and went to the replicator and got a glass of water before taking a seat and kicking his feet up on the only part of the desk that wasn’t covered in PaDDs or bits of things. “what do you want?” he asked flatly.
