It was shortly after the department head meeting and down in the Merrimack’s shuttlebay shuttle 2 was being prepped for launch by NE Tech and NE Lee. Shuttle 1 unfortunately was down for maintenance due to both previously mentioned NEs having gotten sloppy in the past week on their work and thrown a ‘unsanctioned party’ inside Shuttle 1, the exact details to which this party took shape with was still to be released. This had been in a report and the details of said party to the XO the day prior though probably had yet to be acted on in any form for punishment. For now both NEs were on report and their section chief was punishing them with extra duty shifts with preparing Shuttle 2 today while under his watchful stern gaze.

As the team to depart began to file in NE Chief Stern turned to the XO and CO. “..Sirs, Shuttle 2 is prepped and ready to go. NE Bills will be your pilot today unless you would prefer to handle it yourself?” he offered with direction of the question going to the CO given his past as a pilot too.

“No,” replied John Glen. “I’m happy to let Bills pilot. I’ve found Shuttle 2 has always had unresponsive controls and never liked it anyway!”

After his reply Stern continued, “..We have the usual team equipment in the shuttle, a basic medical, science and engineering kit. Three extra Type-1 phasers, and just in case 3 days of emergency rations. We have also provided a small ‘tribute’ box of simple food stuff samples, and print out images of different places, things, and the like from ship stores. In case you wanted to offer it as a first contact gift..” he said.

“That’s very thoughtful, Stern,” replied the Captain. “Thank you!”

Mike stood off to the side of the entrance to the shuttle awaiting everyone else and of course waiting for Stern to finish his talk. In the meantime his eyes roamed around to see if he could find the NE’s who had thrown the party. He had read the report this morning and forwarded it and his recommendations to the Captain. He had said that while he thought they had been punished enough for now it was glaringly obvious that neither one was showing even a bit of maturity. The sort of maturity which would be necessary for a person of a higher rank. He had therefore recommended that they be overlooked the next time they came up for promotion.

came across
Cross approached Joe ‘’Say Cmdr what if the person with the broken nose had been to this party and you punished the wrong guy instead’‘ she whispered in a teasing sort of way.

Cross Dr.

Joe looked at Cross , confused for an instant. Then the look of understanding look came across his face. “Then I would have to feel sympathy for the wrongly accused individual because I have been in the same situation once or twice. ” Joe answered with a barely suppressed smile. “But as an XO I was acting on the report of the duty officer and any punishments received by any individuals will be decided by the captain not me. I only make recommendations. ” Pausing then he turned to Cross and said , “Along with that if there are any saucy little medical officers who have information which might help a wrongly accused individual they should go see the captain .

OOC: Bob just as a side question, what DH role is your XO also covering? Since its not listed atm on the roster. I’d like to see it noted and for my own notes on the sims plans for what your XO is formerly skilled in

GM CockRoach

OOC: We discussed once before and agreed (with hierarchy approval), that as an alt Environment ship, the STF rule about the XO requiring to also have a DH role does not apply on the USS Merrimack (or other alt Environment ships) and so is not required on the roster. If you are just asking out of curiosity and for your own notes, then sorry, that’s perfectly fine, but I think Bob has already mentioned several times that his character came up the ranks via Security. I’ll let him expand upon that more and he could maybe add it to his character profile.

OOC: Yeah no I just wanted the info for my own notes. I’m aware from previous talks the XO doesn’t have to be a DH, but as you outlined below my follow up was going to be a suggestion of him covering as even an acting COS as an interim for the sim and stuff. Again mainly I wanted it to know how I should have someone interact with the XO etc. Anyhow, Thanks!

Edit: Joe, since we are currently short of a COS it would help a great deal if you could cover that role during the landing party visit?

Dave

GM CockRoach

Been meaning to ask if there was more, I can do Dave. I can cover the COS slot for you on the landing party.

Bob

Tia arrived with a backpack and a carry case. On her hip, peaking out from her jacket now and then, was a small phaser. She nodded to everyone as the conversation paused. “Permission to store my gear?”
