Just as quickly as he appeared the young security officer had disappeared “Huh” Magnus looked at the security Chief with a perplexed look “Twenty years in the fleet and I can still be surprised” He said rubbing the back of his neck “Wilkinson… He hasn’t been on the ship long has he” He asked McGregor with a half smile.

“Hardly any time,” Thomas confirmed. “I’ll admit, I’m a bit concerned about the speed at which this seems to have come together.”

COS

Magnus nodded “Oh to be young and in love” He said with a tinge of humor in his voice “You ever been engaged Thomas?” He asked.

XO

“No,” Thomas replied. “Haven’t even really dated since prep school. I’m ace-aro,” he explained.

COS

Magnus gave the other man a confused look and didn’t speak for a moment “Prep school” He said after the short pause “Is that like the junior-senior highschool system they have in the old United States?” the Icelander asked as he returned to the bicycle machine.

XO

“It is that,” Thomas said. “Just a special school aimed at preparing students for the Academy. Live in barracks, extra physical education, wear a uniform, the whole nine yards.”

COS

Magnus immediately started to push up his exercise, getting back at where he was before their interesting interruption “Interesting, I didn’t really aim for the Academy until my cousin convinced me to enlist, although by that time I didn’t have too hard a time getting in. Did you go the Earth Academy?”

XO

“Yeah,” Thomas said, wrapping up the stair machine and moving over to a treadmill, starting with a light jog. “Honestly, before my posting to the Genny-A, I had never really left Earth for more than a month.”

COS

Magnus chuckled at his comment “Funny, before my first assignment to the academy I hadn’t spent more than a week on Earth at a time since the war ended. I try to make it home every chance I get to meet my family but nowadays most of us are spread across the Federation, I’m hoping to visit Oed the next time we go to Black Rock, I have some family there I haven’t seen in a while.”

XO

“Oh?” Thomas asked. “What do they do there?”

He’d heard of OED, of course, but the last he’d heard the colony was constantly on the verge of collapse.

COS

“Two of my cousins, Jóhann is a businessman who bought some property and moved there a couple of years ago, he’s a strange old coot but great fun. The other Brother is Jósef who’s the Colonies Police Chief, he’s a retired Federation Marine, retired a Lieutenant General after 30 something years of service. When I was young he taught me how to fight, you’d like him, he was a Military Police Investigator, degrees in criminology and criminal psychology.”

XO

That did sound like someone Thomas might want to meet. “The hooligans out there keeping him busy?” he asked, modifying the treadmill’s settings to make his run more difficult.

COS

Magnus took his hands off the handles for a moment to increase the settings of the bike “Oh yes, I remember when he told me about his first week, immediately starting butting heads with the Starfleet Security Chief there, the Governor was kidnapped and local crime gangs started a riot, I was told the mad old coot ended it with a swordfight like it was the dark ages.” he said with a smile on his face, the story amused him greatly “The most recent message we received from him he told us he was involved in some Klingon internal struggles. It’s never a dull place from what I understand.”
