==[ORIGINS] USS HOOD: Idle Hands== | |||
===by Andy Catterick=== | |||
SD: 2261.046 | |||
Scene: Bridge, USS HOOD | |||
“Well Mr. Steering.” Sean said nonchalantly from the command chair. “The landing party isn’t due back for 30 minutes. What shall we do to bide our time?” | |||
It had only been a few hours but Kim had come to develop a new found wariness of the first officer. He had taken on the role of her teacher with gusto and had pelted her with questions, problems and ‘what if’ scenarios during the entire time she had been on the bridge. She wondered if this was the way things were going to continue and if Sean Merrick truly was as evil as he seemed to be. She returned her mind to the problem at hand. She had already ordered a diagnostic on the computer system, a recalibration of the long range sensors and did her best at making the duty roster more efficient which was a bit of a double edged sword as Commander Merrick himself was the one who had set the roster. She felt his eyes on the back of her head and knew he was expecting an answer. “Gunnery practice sir.” | |||
“Feel like blowing up a few wandering asteroids Mr. Steering? That doesn’t seem very hard for HOOD’s firing control.” He shook his head sadly. “Not very sporting at all.” | |||
“I was thinking the crews could fire manually sir.” She added as she pointedly did not look over at Lieutenant Zade who as Navigator was also responsible for weapons efficiency. | |||
“That is an outstanding idea lieutenant! And a brave one to boot. I believe that you have managed to piss off three separate departments in as many hours.” Sean lept from his chair and came to stand next to her console his arms folded. “If I were you I’d sleep with one eye open.” He said with a grin. | |||
“I think you might be right sir.” Kim answered. | |||
“That won’t save you.” Zade added ominously and Kim hoped that the new navigator was joking. She hadn’t been able to get a good read on her partner yet but she didn’t seem to be the vindictive type. | |||
“Well lieutenant time’s a wasting. I’m sure our navigator has provided a course to place us in an optimal firing position. Let’s go make some space dust!” | |||
<<<NRPG>>> | |||
Just some time killing stuff. Feel free to continue or not. | |||
Harry: That was a really good post! | |||
Respectfully, | |||
