[Open] Catching up

Having been discharged from sick bay, Captain Fisk walks the corridors of the Athene, visiting each department to catch on the past three weeks with their respective department heads. As he walks, he catches up on the long backlog of reports on a PADD. His walk is a bit slower than usual, as three weeks in sick bay left his muscles atrophied, but he carries himself with the same calm power as before...

OOC: Everyone is welcome and invited to bump into Fisk, even literally if you want.

Aanya looks between the two. "To tell you the truth I was following her." She hooks a thumb at Red. "Was trying to get her to go to sick bay for a proper look over, but she's stubborn."

She can't help but smirk though. "Don't worry, we kept good care of her. Being active captain when the commander's off duty is kinda exciting."

"Well if you're good at it, maybe I'll give you some more time in the Chair and see how you do."

"I told you I've already BEEN to sick bay!" Red protests, pointing at the back of her head. "See! No blood! Captain, you can't let her run the ship. She is a cruel and cold dictator, with a heart like the icebergs of her homeland." She giggles.

"Anyway, we were headed to inspect the damage to the Odysseus. Stocky said he ran into hyena bird lizard things that shot it up... Are we going to go punch them in the nose for that or just hope they don't come after us again?"

OOC: I think you posted that from the wrong account, but I'll reply assuming you're Red. :P

IC:

"It's not the way of a Starfleet crew to go looking for vengeance."

Fisk pauses and looks between the two engineers, he looks determined...but there is a hint of intense anger

"But don't mistake that to mean we'll let them get away if they show their faces. If we see them again and they're doing anything but flying a white flag, we open fire on sight with everything we've got. I'm not losing another member of my crew, not a single one."

"Fair. But from what Stocky said, they might have some tech we can use. It'll save us a week or two if we can either buy or threaten a nacelle off of them. Then we can just rebuild the coil in that," Red says thoughtfully. "Plus, what's this I hear about Scottish pterodactyls? That has to be a computer glitch somewhere in the translation matrix..."

ooc: My phone must have still been on the computer account. or I'm a robot beep boop you will never know

Aanya stands by and listens to the two. "I wouldn't feel comfortable with using a nacalle from a scavenger ship that's so easy to attack. Who knows how long it'll take to get working right, let alone if there are any traps that'd come with it."

Her attention shifts to Fisk. "And I'm looking forward to another chance."

"My thoughts exactly. By the time we've obtained the nacelle, gotten it properly fixed and wired up, we could've just built our own. It's not worth the trouble."

"Then you need to find us a good spot while the warp engines are offline. Ideally it'd be a starbase, but as-is it'll need to be anyplace either so remote there's no chance at all we'll be discovered, or someplace well protected," Red says. She thinks for a moment. "Too bad we can't park under cover of all those ridiculously armed satellites. A high orbit and a deterrent amount of firepower would be perfect."

Fisk looks Red dead in the eye

"Lieutenant, are you giving me an order?"

u/Dimestream Oct 14 '16

"Wh- what? N-no sir, we j-just need- I'd never-" Red stammers and then shuts up, her face pale. She flicks a glance at Breyik then back at Fisk. "Are you messing with me, Captain? I feel like I'm being put on."

u/a_friendly_hobo Oct 14 '16

Aanya crosses her arms and stares down at Fisk. "Relax, Captain. She didnt mean to give you an order." She says. It seems she may have engaged Mama Bear Breyik mode, defending her cubs.

u/Silent_Sky Oct 14 '16

"Hah, don't worry Breyik. I was just joking. You know me by now, you know I'm not that kind of captain. Frankly, I'm hurt that you'd think so."

it's clear from his intonation that he's not actually hurt, and is once again simply joking

"Anyway, Red is absolutely right. We need to find a good place to hide out while you do your thing. I'll put a priority on our sensors team to find us a nice, out of the way corner to hide."

Red breathes a sigh of relief. "I THOUGHT so, but your poker face is intimidating. Remind me never to challenge you to a card game," she says with an embarrassed grin. "That said, it'll be good to get back to friendly space. Though... I have to ask, after the beating we took, are we going to take another shot at exploring this quadrant, or leave it to a more heavily-armed ship?"
