Leo walked up to the door of the CSO’s office to report in for duty. He looked at the door, walked up to it to press the buzzer. He stepped back before he even pressed it. Straighten his uniform. Stepped forward. Stepped back.
Leo turned away from the door, pacing the corridor for up to a minute before walking back up to the door. He took a deep breath as he went for the buzzer again but stepped back once again. “Ensign O’Reilly reporting to duty… ” He muttered to himself as he walked back up, took another deep breath and pressed the buzzer this time, then stepping back quickly and held his breath as he waited for a response.Ensign Leo O’Reilly
ScientistUnknown to the new Science Officer his pressing the button by the door was redundant as the doors swooshed open on their own. As the young officer nervously waited he would see a Caitian standing before a screen display on the wall beside her desk. Her fur was a vibrant red, black and orange mix in coloring and was glossy as she was very meticulous with her grooming. She appeared to be engrossed in the display and was muttering to herself as she studied it, tail lazily swishing back and forth with her ruminations.

OOC: Welcome aboard and very nice first post!
Leo remained frozen in the corridor as the door opened and waited a few seconds once it had opened before he tentatively took a step forward up to the door. That’s when he noticed Sheriye and that she was distracted. As he noticed this he let out the breath he’d been holding. After a quick glance at the floor of the office, Leo brushed his hair in an attempt to buy time and make sure he didn’t look messy, the latter of which failed as his hair went straight back to its original position. He held his breath once again and stepped forward into the office carefully in an attempt not to make a sound.
Now inside the office he noticed his hands shaking slightly and hid them behind his back taking up a formal looking position. He looked at the CSO and opened his mouth to speak but no sound came out. He straightened his uniform and tried again this time looking at the floor by her feet. “Ensign O’Reilly reporting for duty,” Leo whispered so quietly he could barely hear it himself. He pinched the palm as he tried again to help himself focus. “Ensign O’Reilly reporting for duty,” He repeated, louder this time, looking up just afterwards hoping to cover the fact he’d been looking away.Ensign Leo O’Reilly
ScientistOOC: Thanks
Being a Caitian, Sheriye had actually heard the young Ensign enter the office when the door had whooshed open but she appeared to be trying to finish a train of thought. Once the young man successfully got out his second introduction of himself she snorted in irritation and finally turned.
“Rrelax, Enssign. I am not going to bite you.” She said in her purring Caitian accent. “Have a sseat, you look like yourr going to fall down.” She added as she moved over to her desk and deftly hopped up onto the seat. A move that would more then likely unsettle the new Ensign even more but until she could requisition a proper chair for Caitian anatomy, it was how she had to sit.
Settling herself comfortably on the chair she looked toward O’Reilly.”Sssoo.” She said languidly as Caitians never did anything in a hurry.”You arre my new officerr. Tell me about yourrsself and how you have gotten herre.”
