Having boarded the Europa prior to its departure from Black Rock, Barbara Wheeler, Barb to most everyone who met her, was excited to be out of the academy and away from Fleet HQ. She was excited that she would be going to the Copenhagen Expanse. She hoped that there would be unknown planets to discover, geological wonders to find and a way to get her name in the historical record. If she found something really big, something really important, there may even be something named after her, but she hoped it wouldn’t be similar to what Professor Brocolli had named after him, a disease.

The blonde haired, blue eyed young woman made her way to Main Engineering. The Academy had one of these discovery-class ships that she trained on, and so she knew the way, besides, her quarters were on Deck 5, same as Main Engineering and the engineering lab. How she hoped they’d find some mine on a long forgotten planet so she could investigate and find what was mined and why it was abandoned. But dreaming did her no good. She had to remain in the here and now, she was told previously and let the future take care of itself. She removed her glasses, polished one of the lenses and them back on, before she straightened and mentally prepared herself to put her best foot forward.

She stepped into Main Engineering and said “I’m Ensign Barbara Wheeler, here to meet Lieutenant Commander Mathys Ducote.”

Mathys paused. Within his left hand he clutched a small toy, the worn letters AD sketched into the bottom. The small lid hung on delicate hinges and swayed when he set it down. Within the small hole, several multiple colored wires stood out at odd angles and gears.

Back on Black Rock, he had visited a toy museum about the 21th century. The curator told him it was some type of digital pet before accepting his offer to try and fix it. Thankfully, he had people in high places vouching for his talent.

“Back here, ma’am.” His voice carried from his office.

-CE, Mathys Ducote

OOC: Small bump.
-Janice B.

OOC: Thanks Janice
IC
Ma’am, Barb thought to herself, I’m not old enough to be a Ma’am, surely.

“Thank you, Sir,” Barb replied, following the voice.

Entering Mathys’s office, Barb briefly stood to attention in front of the CE, before holding out the padd containing her transfer orders.

“Lt Commander Ducote, I’m newly transferred to the Europa from Black Rock, I specialise in geological engineering, but received training in all areas of ship systems, as well as outposts and the like,” Barb said, “I’m pleased to meet you and I look forward to a long and successful career on the Europa.”
