Posted by Lieutenant Commander Amari Brooks (Executive Officer) in Bridge: Main Sim
Riding the turbo lift Amari took a breath. She was making her way onto the bridge, in command for the first time. Though she couldn’t say she was pleased with the Captain’s decision to go down to the surface of Carraya IV, she understood and respected it.

The doors wooshed open and Commander Brooks strode onto the bridge. She looked around to see who was on duty and made her way to the center chair. “I have the bridge.” She called out as she took the seat. She took a moment to take it all in, her first time in the big chair. She wanted to squeal with delight but didn’t think it would be professional. “Status of the away team?”

-Lt. Cmdr. Amari Brooks, XO

The very junior officer left in charge by Brad when he stole seat to check on the mission module leapt up from the center seat as if it had burned her.

“Commander!” she squeaked . “Um, they’re just fine, still - aah - meeting with the, er, clinic staff, and nothingdefinitelyhappenedupheresinceDoctorWalkerlefttenminutesago,” she said, saying the last part in a rush before taking a gasping breath and looking as if she’d rather be anywhere else, plus worried she soon would be.
