Having unloaded the shuttle and finding his new quarters, Lieutenant Xam Ra’Ti made sure his appearance was flawless before making his way through the Fleet Personnel Only section of the Outpost. He knew the XO was in her office as thats what the computer verified. He stopped twice to introduce himself to some of the Security team that was on patrol, and then found himself standing in front of a door. He made a fist and knuckled the chime to let XO know he was there. A fleeting memory flashed through his mind; that of a somewhat younger version of himself meeting his first XO outside of the Academy. That had been a… colorful… relationship. Some people just couldn’t see past Xam’s past. “Welp, there’s always a first time I guess.” he mumbled to himself.

Ra’Ti, Strategic Ops Chief

“Come,” Jessica yelled out disconnecting the comm call she was on and spinning back around in her chair. Life never seemed to stop for her anymore. She had to find a balance somewhere. At least next month she would be on shore leave and only fulfilling one role instead of two. At least this meeting was going to be easy. She always liked meeting the new officers on the station. Sometimes they were eager and shiny newly minted officers and other time less shiny. Either way Jessica liked first meetings.

As the door slid open, the new Strategic Operations Officer came into the room. The Efrosian walked with a noticeable ease of movement… a sense of confidence pressing the line between capable and cocky. An easy smile played across his face as he looked at the XO. But it was his eyes… piercing ice-blue eyes with silvery white edges around the iris. They were the eyes of a rogue… a cad…

A predator.

“Commander, nice to meet ya. Lieutenant Xam Ra-Ti, at your service.” Xam said with a smile.

Xam

“Lieutenant,” she returned the greeting with a nod and gestured to a seat across from her desk. “Nice to meet you. Take a seat.” Sitting down she took in the man sitting across from her. “So how are you finding your new assignment on the outpost. Satisfactory I hope.”

Teller XO

Xam chuckled and grinned. “Well, Ma’am… I’ve been here all of thirty minutes, so… so far so good, I guess. But maybe we should give me time to really get a feel for the place. Two, three hours maybe and you can ask me again?” and he chuckled once more. It had always amused him how so many Command officers asked the same question of new arrivals. What did they expect? ‘How do you like it so far?’ ‘Oh, its brilliant. The walk from the shuttle bay to this office inspires me to greatness.’

Of course, that particular conversation played out in the back of the SOO’s mind. To the XO, he said “So tell me what you and the Old Man expect from me here. Although… I understand that the Skipper is as new here as I am. What are they like?”

Ra’Ti, SOO

“First and foremost I am not sure he would appreciate Old Man as a nickname,” Jessica let out a small breathy chuckle. “As for what we expect from you the duties here are pretty much where they are anywhere. Preparing the station for the outbreak of conflict, liaising with Starfleet Command and our allies when needed, logistics, and when your clearance permits it summarizing intelligence reports for briefings. Staff meetings usually are on Mondays at 8 sharp but that was under the old CO. Which of these areas do you feel were your strongest in your last posting?”
