Presim- Wrenches everywhere (Attn: Stone)

Posted March 22, 2020, 5:12 p.m. by Ensign Kristiana O’Larria (Engineer) (Melissa Aragon)

Kristi was in the little used hall on a lower deck hardly anyone used. It was places like this that she liked to work, despite there rarely being a reason to. Today she was cleaning and replacing a slew of circuits, conduit junctions, and plasma switch spots because it hadn’t been done in ages. She had spent last night going thru maintenance records and discovered several inspections that had been ignored, overlooked, or just written off as ‘done’ despite there being no work actually done. With everyone else doing routine stuff in Engineering, she had grabbed box and taken off for a quiet place to work while she considered what was going on between her and Mike.

Before his last away, he had kissed her and confessed a secret that had shook her to the core. He wasn’t supposed to be there… in engineering. He doubted his abilities to work and lead. But he had been bold and sure in his affections for the engineer who saw him as a mentor. Her hand rose absently to her lips where he had kissed her. It was foolish move and she quickly reached back down to grab a wrench and reach back into the space she was working on. “A moment of weakness, Kristi. He’s hardly gone out of his way to be with you, since. So let it go.”

Anyone coming down the ball would see someone on their back, legs sticking out of the hole in the wall, and tools spread over the hallway in a haphazard way that would make someone wonder if the person in the wall was even aware what tool was where.
