Main Sim - Graduation

“Thank you all!” Henry replied, with a shy glance at Miya and a huge grin on his face. He couldn’t help but find it ironic his formal promotion announcement was coming at a time when he was thoroughly out-of-uniform, but he wasn’t particularly peeved. He had wanted to say something momentous, or at least funny, but in the moment it seemed like this was enough.

Grabbing a glass of water, Alison held it out for Cadet Williams. “It’s okay Cadet, just take a couple of deep breaths.”

She had to try and keep herself from laughing, she had been caught over sleeping a few times back at the Academy.

Aaron looked at the Lieutenant: “Thank you”, he said, a bit embarrassed about his entrance. He then looked at his surrounding, discovering the hot tubes. So that the well-famous hot tubes, he thought. It didn’t steal his reputation.

He then approached Lieutenant Jr. Rodier. “I don’t think I forget to congratulate you on your promotion Lieutenant. Congrats !”, he said, offering to him his hand.

Henry reached up, shaking the Cadet’s hand. He then glanced over at Davis. “Of course, I don’t believe I’m the only person moving on, Captain. So please, if there are others, don’t let me steal the show.”

~ Lt. Jr. Gr. Henry Rodier - Chief of Security

Miya grinned at Aaron. At least being late for a hot tub graduation party wasn’t as serious as being late for, say, a briefing! “C’mon, Aaron - join us!” she murmured, scooting sideways towards Lt Rodier and patting the spot on the edge of the hot tub which she’d just freed up for her fellow medical cadet.

“Sorry, sir - hope you don’t mind!” she added, glancing at the tall security chief with an apologetic smile. By the Prophets, this graduation ceremony wasn’t what she’d expected! And it was all the better for it .....

She waggled her feet back and forwards in the bubbling water, taking care not to splash anyone. At least the air in the hot tub room was warm and humid - just as well, given the number of semi-clothed people either sitting on the side of the tub, like her, or reclining in the pool itself. Hopefully she’d be able to slip into the water once the graduation itself was over.

As the other crewmembers congratulated the new Chief of Security, Emmy began to realize that she was going to be unable to continue to conduct the graduation from the warmth of the hot tub. With a slight sigh, she turned to kneel on the bench she had been reclined on and then gracefully stepped out of the bubbles, reaching out to collect the light pink robe waiting for her beside the tub. She neatly tied it around her body and collected her glass, oblivious to the notion that the Commanding Officer of a Starfleet ship conducting an official ceremony in a fluffy pink terrycloth robe was… not standard, to say the least. Finding a spot near the side of the room where she had a good view of the room, she continued.

“Cadet Carmen Luisa Parker-Cawlyns, come forward.”

  • Davis, CO

Eric took a sip at his champagne, hiding the amusement on his face at his Captain’s attire for the remainder of the ceremony - or her obvious lack of caring what other thought. However, he thought he should be at least somewhat useful as her Executive Officer. Putting side his glass, Eric picked up some nearby small boxes and came to Davis’s side.
