CSO Check in - Ens Alexander

Posted Feb. 5, 2019, 4:43 p.m. by Ensign Zack Alexander (Scientist) (Alex Lorien)

Zack materialised on the transporter pad of the USS Ogawa, giving the transporter crewman a smile. “Hello!” He said, brightly.

“Welcome aboard the Ogawa, sir.” The crewman responded, smiling in return.

“It’s a pleasure to be here.” The Betazoid hoisted his bag onto his shoulder; it contained his personal items, ones he didn’t want replicated. He always thought that it took away the sentimental value when things were dematerialised.

He left the transporter room and headed for his quarters, something which Zack was quite excited about. As a cadet, he had shared quarters with a Bolian who, although had become a friend, was prone to talking (and sometimes shouting) in his sleep. He unpacked his belongings, putting a holopicture up of his parents, and smiling as he did.

They were Human - he was adopted, but they had taken him when he was a baby, so he knew no one else. They had been so proud of him when he had graduated university and the Academy; he hoped to make them proud again when he earned himself a second pip.

But there were formalities to attend.

Putting on his uniform, Zack rubbed his hand over his shaved head, peered at his reflection in the mirror, nodding his own approval. The Academy had instilled him with strict behaviours, and though he had learned that life on an actual ship was a little more relaxed, he was hardly going to make any mistakes on his first day.

With that, he went to meet his new boss.

* Arriving at the office of the Chief Science Officer, the Betazoid made sure his uniform was unwrinkled, and pressed the doorchime.

His exit review from the Academy had been sent prior to his arrival. It read:

‘Cadet Zackary Alexander - now Ensign- is a proficient, capable and intelligent young person. He has shown considerable skill in his fields, especially that of xenobiology, biochemistry, and pharmacology: he has a certain knack for being able to identify medicines, their uses, contraindications, etc. He did confide in me that he would have been a doctor if he would have more time studying people than “patching them up”.
‘Zackary made an affable part of his team, generally being well liked amongst his fellow cadets and happily following orders. It should be noted however that he was given a verbal warning for using the science lab whilst not on duty for personal study. Though this is hardly a court martial offence, it does bring to light the Betazoid’s flaw of wanting to study a little too much, and sometimes his side projects can come into conflict with his official duties. This is something he needs to keep in order on his next assignment.

‘All in all, Zackary Alexander has the makings of becoming an excellent scientist and a fine officer. I shall watch his career with interest.’
