Kate looked at the room clearing out and wondered if it was good or bad that she was held after class with the principal so to speak. Since she was not passing notes via PaDD like she had been known to do in school and at staff meetings, Kate assumed the request was about something else. She winked at Paris who slowly got up from the table looking at her with a questioning expression. It would not be the first time Kate had been called to the Captain’s office but this was the first time it had not been after some sort of decision she had made off the cuff.

“Comm me,” Paris mouthed as she followed Mason out of the room.

Kate nodded as she reached over and grabbed another cookie. While it was arrogant to rave about oneself, or so her mother always said, the cookie was insanely good. The recipe was so old no one actually remembered who it came from. The O’Neill’s just said it was Grandma’s recipe. Once Kate tried to figure out how far it went back. She only got as far as her maternal grandma from pre World War II. From that point on she just referred to it always as the Ancient O’Neill secret. Chewing it she looked at the new CO. Life would be different with Rivar but the man before her had a phenomenal reputation. He was also an O’Conner which meant his ancestry hailed from the same genealogical sector at some point as the O’Neills. As Uncle Jeb would say…that meant the man had good bones. Part of Kate was rather excited for this private sit down and couldn’t wait to see what the man had to say.

“Thank you for hanging back, I promise I won’t keep you two long.” O’Connor said with a surprisingly charming smile. He slid the folios and boxes across the table at the two officers and nodded. “These were in the Captain’s safe in my Ready Room when I arrived. It appears that in the sudden change over, a few things were missed.”

Nodding to the folios, Garrett smiled a bit wider. “Looks like you both have some new metal for your collars… congratulations Commanders.”

In the boxes were the small hollow collar insignia that, combined with their current pips… would make them both Lieutenant Commanders.

“Well done, both of you. I’m certain they are well deserved.”
