((USS Artemis-A, deck 8, Chief Tactical Officer office))
Vitor stretched, stood up from his seat, turning from behind the desk and heading to the replicator. He was inviting Ensign Cole, who had taken over the Tactical station for a little chat.
Silveira: =/\= I have been meaning to reach out to you Ensign. I have read the mission reports and would like a word. But since we are on shore leave don’t feel obligated to accept, or consider it as an order. I just wanted to chat about the recent… Bridge action.
Cole: =/\= Yes, Sir. I am free for a face to face. =/\=
Vitor smiled as he programmed one of his espresso recipes from his replicator.
Silveira: =/\= I am at my office right now. I don’t know if you like coffee over tea, but if you do, my replicator is one of the best for that.
Cole: =/\= On my way, Sir. =/\=
Vitor nodded, when the comline closed, even if she couldn’t see him and took the espresso with him back to his desk.
Vitor sipped on it as he took another look at the mission report. It didn’t take long for Cole to arrive.
Cole: You asked to see me, Lieutenant.
Vitor smiled and stood up, gesturing for Cole to take a seat.
Silveira: I did, thank you for obliging Ensign. Please take a seat. ::He walked to his replicator: How do you want your coffee?
Cole: Black no sugar is fine Sir.
Vitor arched an eyebrow and tipped his head. Not much of a daring choice, but he shrugged as he chose a classic Brazilian blend, smooth but still on the bitter side. Good for a coffee as simple as that.
Silveira: Very well, brewing it now. Tell me Ensign, you were the one at Tactical during the battle. How did that happen?
Cole: That is correct, the Lieutenant Commander ::thinking:: Jovenan requested I take over tactical after the departure of the Captain’s away team and shuttle team.
Vitor nodded, setting her coffee cup in front of her as he took his own seat, behind his desk.
Silveira: I know, I read the report. ::He leaned back:: You suggested an… How should I put it? ::He kept his smile, but he wanted to see if Cole was reckless or not:: Unorthodox tactic.
Give me a run down on that ramming idea, if you please.
Cole: Response
Vitor listened attentively, taking another sip from his coffee. He nodded, but wasn’t yet sure how to approach it.
It was a reckless move. Something he would likely approve, suggest and/or do himself.
But still…
Silveira: Interesting. You realize there are a few flaws in doing that?
Cole: Response
Vitor grinned. Definitely he was beginning to worry, as Cole reminded him of… Himself.
Silveira: Well, you could have chewed their shields first before ramming. If properly timed a wide phaser and torpedoes barrage would have helped. But as they say “insight is flawless”.
What is your evaluation of your performance?
Cole: Response
