”=/\= Aye, on my way, sir =/\=” the Cadet replied, heading to the turbolift. A few moments later, the door opened onto the Bridge, and Henry took a few steps in, speaking with some surprise to the Lieutenant sitting in the Captain’s Chair. “Cadet Rodier reporting for duty, sir.”

“Cover for me while I watch over the rest of the Bridge, Cadet?” Anders replied with a grin.

Henry’s look of surprise turned to one of sheer shock, which he forced into a nervous smile. “Of course, Lieutenant.” He moved towards the Tactical station, then paused. “I… I assume you want me here, sir? I apologize, this is only my second time on the Bridge outside of the Holodeck.” It was clear the Cadet was not entirely confident; he had expected to be placed on an away team, if anything, not asked to cover for his DH.

Kyle stepped over to Tactical and placed a calming hand on Rodier’s shoulder in an attempt to relax him, “Take a deep breath lad,” he began in a cool tone, “You can do this, I know you can. I’ll be here if you need a hand, but I also need to make sure the ship doesn’t keel over while the Captain and XO are planetside. Just relax in to it, trust me.” Kyle clapped Rodier’s shoulder and returned to the centre chair.

Taking a deep breath, Henry drew his shoulders up and and stepped up to the station. “Aye, sir. Thank you.” Never one to shy away from encouragement, the Cadet seemed to relax somewhat, though he was of course still nervous.

“Did the away team make it down ok?” Anders asked Rodier in an effort to take his mind off nerves.

OOC: I can’t find info on it anywhere, but I assume the Challenger’s Tactical station has access to sensors as well as weapons systems. I’m unsure about coms. Please correct me if I’m wrong!

Henry took in the layout of the station for a moment, and then, closing his eyes, drew on his forced memory of Tactical operations. It was never his favorite part of the Academy, but he had shoveled it in to the extent that he could be functional in situations like this. Nevertheless, he hoped this practice on the Bridge wouldn’t turn out to be one of those where you “learn from your mistakes.”After a few seconds had passed, the Cadet registered the Lieutenant’s question, and, opening his eyes, tapped a few buttons on the station’s righthand side. “Yes, sir, they appear to have landed safely on the surface. All life signs are steady.”

OOC: You are correct as far as I know!
