Hammor looked directly at her and maintained an air of professional demeanor, a subordinate addressing a superior. “Ma’am, if I may… I see this going one of three ways, as these conversations have done so in the past. One is you will side with the station’s staff and deride me for making their life difficult and taking liberties with regulations and protocols without looking at the full picture. Two is you will side with me and simply ask that I do not make life difficult for the station crew or take liberties with regulations or protocols again… knowing that I absolutely will if that gets the job done. Three, and this has happened only once but even as an outlier is still my personal favorite, is you will have read their report-slash-complaint-slash-temper tantrum; and you will now ask me for my side of what happened before rendering your opinion and deciding whether or not to thank me in private and scold me in public to appease station egos… which, by the way, I absolutely understand has to be done at times… or throw me off of your ship. Although…” and he gave her a long look of appraisal, “… I have no doubt that you could surprise me with a fourth option, Captain.”

Hammor, Ops

A tiny smile tugged at the corners of her mouth. “Well, at least I know you are able to evaluate a situation.” Lifting her arms to brace her elbows on the desk, she brought the palms of her hands together and tapped her fingers together. “I do want to hear your side of it. So please, by all means, fill me in,” she said, gesturing briefly with one hand before lacing her fingers together.
