Posted by Lieutenant Kastarak (XO/Navigation Officer) in Main Sim: Conference Room
It was the same afternoon as Kastarak had been promoted to First Officer and full lieutenant. Earlier this morning (actually, in the middle of the night), the captain had surprised him with this promotion while they were working out in the gym. This was the first time in Kastarak’s Starfleet career that he was wearing a golden shirt – the shirt for command, with lieutenant stripes on his sleeves.

Kastarak had been briefed during the day of the matters ot today’s meeting. He had been in calls with Starfleet command with the captain too, and been briefed on their next orders. The time of patrolling Federation space would soon be over. There would be no honeymoon for Kastarak.

Now, Kastarak had decided to go to the conference room early to set up and prepare. He ensured there would be pots of tea and coffee on the table, and cups and other refreshments along the seats. All department heads had been invited, as had Sara Lovejoy.

Only a few more minutes to go, then the meeting would begin. Who would enter first?

Pawl got a summons to a staff meeting but it came from Kasarak He was not aware of the command change as he finished getting ready and headed off towards the conference room. His head swimming with thoughts of KAsarak as his commander now. It was nice he got the promotion but was shocked he never mentioned it. Did something happen to the old xo he pondered as he walked down the corridor. As he closed on the door to the conference room he almost ran into a lonely ensign doing some cleaning chores. “Sorry, Ensign.” Pawl spoke quickly almost falling on the officer as he did a graceful sidestep as he avoided the accident. Moments later the doors opened to the conference room and Pawl slid in like he did a dance step as he stopped just inside the door as they closed behind him. As he tried to recompose himself as he moved towards the table as he finally saw an officer there almost not realizing it was the doctor now in a new uniform. “Well hello, Kass… I Mend Commander?” Pawl was in shock. He barely squeaked out “Congratulations sir!”
