Ensign Nathan Richards - Red Letter Day

[Travis St. John]

((Shuttlebay 4, The Cellar, Amity Outpost))

 

Nathan stood on top of the Targhee, just above the cockpit viewport, and looked down at his paint job. He had kept it fairly simple, replacing the faded green livery with a close approximation to the OPS Gold he wore on his uniform. A majority of the ‘wings’ were covered in the gold as it rose to the top of the hull. Two long bands stretched from the color coating the wings and ended just before the curve to the nose of the hull with two Starfleet Delta insignias. The music he had been playing inside the shuttle bay slowly faded out as he made his way to the rear of the shuttle. He he laid down, dangling his legs over the edge as the next song began. He began drumming on the air as the song started. 

 

He heard the doors to the shuttle bay open as someone entered, but he was in such a good mood that he didn’t care. As the guitar kicked in and the vocals began, Nathan slowly sat up as he mouthed along the lyrics. He bobbed his head and shoulders as the song continued and sat up straight. He looked down to see Robin standing in the doorway. He smiled at her as he continued his little charade along to the music, making small gestures to coincide with the music. At once point, holding up his leg and strumming along it like it was a guitar. He rose to his feet, holding out his arms as he began to actually sing along.

 

Richards: And he’s watching us all with the eeeyyyeeeesss…Of the tigeeeerrrrrr!

 

He walked over to the wing closest to Robin, sliding down it and landing on his feet. A wide grin on his face.

 

Richards: Good morning, Lieutenant!

 

Hopper: Response

 

Nathan looked down at the tray of coffee that Robin held in her hands. It seemed to have become a ritual for her to bring coffee when she visited the shuttle bay. He took the offered coffee, and took a drink.

 

Richards: It’s a good day today. My girl is complete! ::Smiling at Robin:: I couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you.

 

Hopper: Response

 

Richards: So you did enjoy the show? ::winking and laughing:: I’m just in such a good mood! ::Jumping around a bit:: 

 

Hopper: Response
