William made an almost instantaneous movement to get out of the chair but was stopped by the Captain. Barely managing to stop himself from audibly sighing he simply turned his head slightly “Docking procedures have begun, We should be able to start resupply momentarily. Do you want to beam over or walk?” He asked.

Chris looked down away Grey. “I got it for now Commander Grey. I just don’t want to sit down right now so there is no need for you to get up.”
He smiled and patted Grey’s shoulder. He thought about the question for a moment then responded.

“Walk. I watched a movie once where everyone was beaming and this important guy, like a President or something, was beamed from his office to the bridge and when he materialized his head was on backwards. Snotty, had to reverse the beam and the president had to walk to the bridge normally anyway. But at least he was ok. So I will walk. How about you all? Walk or beam?”

“Statistically, the incidence of injury, mild or severe, is much more likely while walking than during a transport. The odds of having your head reversed and surviving are infinitesimal…” a trademark Reid silence. “But walking’s fine.”

Chris smirked. “It was a joke Chief. Don’t be such a Dr. Roboto all the time. ” He smiled.

Entirely counter to the point he was trying to make, Reid corrected the Captain. “Mr Roboto. Styx, Kilroy Was Here, 1983.” The idea that he was more similar to the ship’s computer than any of her crew was quick to spread.

Chris looked over again at the Chief. “Yes. Mr. Roboto. Thank you for the correction. Dr. Robotnic!” He smiled at his arcane sense of humor.

Keali smiled as she listened to the banter and finally nodded. “After 9 hours on a shuttle, I could use a walk…” she agreed, already feeling her muscles stiffening up from being cooped up on the journey over.

If the crew was so concerned of the dangers of walking or transport they could just hail the station for the briefing here too.

Reid looked down at his watch. “Captain, since we’ve successfully docked, and from this docking port it’s an 9.7 minute walk to the turbolift up to the Commodore’s office, we should probably depart soon.”

Chris looked over to the CE and cleared his throat. “Um. Yes. Of course, your right. Let’s all go and see the wizard. ” He smiled and looked at Commander Grey. “Good news Commander. You’re done in that chair for awhile. NE Lt. Townsend. You have the con. “

Chris pressed the comm. [O] All Department Heads need to meet up in the turbo lift in 5 minutes. If you can’t make it then send a capable representative. We are going to see the wiza....Commadore for a mission briefing. That is all.[O]

William stood up with haste, straightened his blue shirt and nodded “Aye sir” He said with a half-smile, an oddity for him on the bridge “I think stretching my legs sounds like a better plan” He looked at the new Chief Engineer, he wondered why Starfleet put two boy geniuses on the same ship. Perhaps They thought a Battleship was a good way to iron out difficulties with socially awkward geniuses, it seemed to work with the now legendary Chekov.

CSO

As the senior staff began to make way for K-7, Ensign Deggur entered the Bridge to take over the science station for the CSO. He looked to NE Townsend and wondered aloud, “I wonder if we’re going into battle?”
