Posted by Lieutenant Sage Brennan (CMO) in Captain’s Quarters
Wanting the evening to go smoothly, Sage prepared a meal that Calvin didn’t allow himself very often. Steak and fries with a side of coleslaw. The food was replicated so it was nutritious and not fatty, but it also tricked the body and brain into craving more carbs and calories per day.

It was time for him to walk through the doors of their quarters, having finished his shift on the bridge. Sage felt a little thrill of excitement as she watched the door for his arrival. They hadn’t been very close lately—ever since his promotion and their ensuing argument. Well, she was tired of the self imposed distance and had promised herself that she’d do her best to heal their wounded feelings that night.

OOC: So she moved her stuff into the Captain’s quarters?

Marius entered his room… well it really wasn’t a room and hadn’t been a single room since he became a department head. Each Chief had a suite, the size of the suite depended no the rank and as XO he had two rooms, one very large one that doubled as a living/dining room and another that was a bedroom/office. His new ‘digs’ had the living room/dining room combo, but had the bedroom and office area’s split so there were three rooms. Quick luxurious for a star-ship but command had it’s privileges.

Marius was in a mood. No one had told him most of command was dealing with personalities… he hated personalities… and hated dealing with them even more. He grumbled to himself as he walked through the door… saying nothing of the aggravations of command to Sage seeing as she was more opposed to his promotion than in favor of it. And while the had a level of detente since the move from the XO quarters they certainly weren’t on ‘speaking’ terms. In fact they hadn’t had adult relations since the promotion… which for them was setting a new record for abstinence every day it continued. “I’m finally off shift.” He said… leaving off his typical pet name for her as he didn’t know how that would be received.
