The report was in his morning briefing:

Incident Report
Time: 2435
Location: Officer’s Quarters, Deck 3, CMO’s Quarters

At 2435, Security patrols were alerted to a series of noises from inside the quarters assigned to Lieutenant Kane, Chief Medical Officer. Upon arrival, patrol heard sounds of disturbance from inside. Security overrides were used on the locked door. Inside was found the berthing room’s assigned occupant. The room was in a state of total disarray, and some items were broken. Occupant was bleeding from his right hand. On site appearance was that occupant had caused the scene. Occupant was argumentative and hostile… so normal. Occupant refused to be taken to Sickbay. As the CMO, occupant was allowed to stay in his quarters only after producing medical kit and treating his injury. When asked why the occupant had cause so much ‘disorder’ in their living space, patrol was to ‘Stay in your f^#$ing lane.’ Patrol assessed scene, no others present. Occupant was told to keep it down and clean up the mess. Patrol learned new swear words and insults. Occupant finally agreed and patrol resumed duties.

Kane, CMO

Chris was in his quarters when the alert came to him. He looked at it in disbelief and quickly got up and ran to Kane’s quarters. He pressed the chime before he realized he was in his boxers only.

Captain Chris Taggart CO

There was an obvious delay, then the door slid open to reveal Kane’s tattooed body wearing, ironically, only boxers as well (Kane’s being a vibrant plaid pattern). His hair looked as if the man had just woken up, as did the rubbing of his eyes. “Taggart. Whatchu want? Its freakin’ early.”

Kane, CMO

“I’m sorry. But I got a report that you hurt yourself. You want to talk about it? We can get some coffee and breakfast?”

Captain Chris Taggart CO

Kane held up a bandaged hand and said “I’ll fix it in a bit. Nothing major.” and he looked down at Taggart and himself. “Well, we could. But shouldn’t you be wearing… oh, I dunno… pants?”

Kane, CMO

“Ya well so should you. Besides, I’m the captain. Let’s get something to eat and talk. And fix that hand better or I will. Let’s go.” Chris just turned and went to the turbolift and waited.

Captain Chris Taggart CO

Kane yelled “Well wait a minute! You may want to run around in your skivvies, but not me.” and he walked back into the room, leaving the door open for Taggart.

Kane, CMO

“What’s the point having all those cool tattoos if no one sees them?” Chris yelled back. “I’m waiting!”

Captain Chris Taggart CO

Kane came out a minute later in shorts and a zipped up goody of faded blue. He had something in his hand which he threw at Taggart. “At least put that on. I dont want to see your nipples all through breakfast.” and they stepped into the lift.

Kane, CMO

In a weird, high pitched Asian voice Chris said, “My nipples look like milk duds!” Then put on the shirt and told the computer gally. “So what’s wrong?”

Captain Chris Taggart CO

Kane shook his head, his hair going all over. “Nothing. Had a bad night. It happens. And can we hold off on the quizzes until after coffee? It’s like you dont even think anymore, man.” he said with a half-hearted glare.

Kane, CMO

“Sure thing. And I do think..... just not that fast. When I heard that my only friend was in trouble, I came as fast as I could.”

The door opened and they went into the galley. They both got a bunch of stares but Chris went up to the cold with his tray anyway. “Grits, scrambled eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy and two pieces of toast, wheat.” He got what wanted and found a table to sit his tray down and went back to get coffee and orange juice and went back to his food.

Captain Chris Taggart CO

Kane grabbed a tray and got oatmeal, a ham and cheese omelet, rye toast, coffee and tomato juice and sat down across from Taggart. He picked up the mug and took a sip and said “Man, our coffee is really terrible.” and then just started eating.

Kane, CMO

Chris smiled and chuckled. “Yep!” He also ate for 10 minutes in silence. Didn’t ask Kane a single thing. He wanted Kane to be comfortable.

Chris

Bridie had woken up happy till the hangover hit her like a train. She washed up and put on her make up, hair bound as usual. Her uniform pleated in all the right places and flawless as always. It took a really close look to see the puffy eyes from crying more of the night and the blood shot white of her eyes from the empty whiskey decanter on her desk.

Knowing she needed more than coffee this morning, she headed for the mess. If she hadn’t had the scheduled tests for three systems this afternoon, she would have called off.

Silently she moved into the galley, oblivious to everyone in the room. Her mind was on last night and everything that had occured. She never noticed those who waved and shouted out good mornings. Her hand absently rising in acknowledment. She took a plate to the line and grabbed a couple pieces of toast and an apple. Grabbing a mug of coffee, she turned to head for the door. She was just gonna take it to her office and plan out her day so it ran smoothly.

Kane looked up and saw her, and then glanced at Taggart. Maybe he just wouldnt see her…

Kane, CMO

Buuuut Chris did notice her. “Hey Chief! Come join us!” He shouted out and took another sip of coffee. He looked at Kane and whispered. “I won’t ask anything while she or anyone is around.”

CO

Kane looked at her and then just shook his head, took a huge swig of coffee, got up and walked to the beverages. He brought back three new cups and set one in front of each of them. “Yeah… we’re all gonna need this.” he said as he sat down.

Kane, CMO

“Thank you.”

There was no mistaking the voice that hollered. Bridie froze in her tracks and swallowed as her eyes closed. Why this morning was the CO in the galley of all days?
She turned and smiled. “Morning, Sir.” She passed Kane as he was getting the coffees and tried not to look at him.

Taking her seat on the side of the table, she nodded to the Captain. “Morning, casual day on the ship, Sir?” She smiled and looked at his attire. This close he would see she looked overly tired.

Bridie
CE

“Well I um..no but I had to run out of my quarters quick. ” He looked at her eyes like he always does and noticed. “You look very tired Chief. You might want to get some more rest. “

Captain Chris Taggart CO

“Yeah… about that.” Kane said and leaned forward, pushing his tray away and leaning his arms on the table. “We need to talk. The three of us. We can do it here, or we can go back to my quarters for a little privacy. Your call.” he said to Taggart.

Kane, CMO

Bridie was about to take a sip of coffee and her eyes widened as she looked from one to the other.

Bridie
CE

Chris looked at both of them and frowned. In a serious tone, “Fine. But in my quarters so I can put on some pants.” He looked at both of them again and then got up and went towards his quarters.

Captain Chris Taggart CO

Kane shrugged and looked at Bridie. Wordlessly, he stood up, downed the coffee, and said simply “You first.” and gestured to the door.

Kane, CMO
