Commander Massana came onto the Bridge shaking his head. He’d known that the Memorial-class was an upgrade of the Pendragon-class, but he’d forgotten that it was technically not an upgrade, but an overhaul. As such, he had forgotten that saying the deck number, as he had become accustomed to on his previous vessel, would not immediately place him on the Bridge. He had emerged in a corridor and had to summon another turbolift to actually get to the Bridge in order to report to the Captain. It would take him a little while to get used to being on the Memorial, even though he had studied the ship thoroughly before coming aboard. He nodded to the Bridge crew, clearly in their second shift, before walking over to the Ready Room door and pressing the chime.

“Commander Dantius Massana, reporting to the Commanding Officer of the USS Memorial,” he said, a lilt in his voice and something vaguely resembling a French tone betraying his island background.

“Come!” she called the door sliding open to reveal the simple office though the captain was not at her desk she was standing at the window looking out on a wall there were some historical weapons as well as an Ushann and what looked like a piece of Borg Armor “What can I do for you commander?” she asked simply

Commander Massana assessed the situation. Of course a warship would have a Ready Room with a captain with a penchant for collecting combat equipment.

“For the moment, I am simply reporting in, Captain,” Dantius said. “The Chief Medical Officer has cleared me for duty, and I am ready to receive any orders, standing or otherwise, that you may have issued but which were not in Starfleet’s central database.”

It was not exactly the friendliest of introductions, but then again, Dantius had never exactly become friends with his previous captains. Comfortable, definitely, but never quite familiar. He seemed to do better with subordinates and equals than superiors, for whatever reason. It was never an issue of a personality clash. There simply seemed to be a part of him that found the idea of becoming friends with someone who may have to order you to your death potentially compromising.

she turned to look at him her eyes were the most brilliant shade of green in fact it was clear they were cybernetic implants replacement eyes she offered her right had for him to shake he would be able to clearly see leftover borg implants throughout the blue-skinned hand apparently this captain had once run afoul of the borg and not come out of it as intact as one would like “Nice to meet you well you should know that we are actually a Special operations ship we go in first to clear the way and secure the area for the eggheads and nose pokers to come in and do their thing” she said sitting down and offering him a seat you should also be aware that we have a half Squadron of fighter craft in our hanger to help us with that mission” she said leaning back a bit “Do you have any questions for me?” she asked

“Nothing in particular,” Commander Massana replied. “I do have a point of clarification. From my understanding, ‘special operations’ tends to cover some ground that others find… distasteful. I hope you understand that I will defy any order which goes against standard ethical considerations, even if failure to follow that order will result in failure of the mission.”

“Understood so far we have not had any moments where our Morals have been tested but I will also point you you know what you signed up for when you joined Starfleet still lets hope we continue to avoid such moral issues and really we end up being simply the Vanguard of Exploration missions,” she said turning back to her wall of keepsakes next to the window “If that will be all for now be sure to visit the counselor and after that I will see you on the bridge” she finished
