Lieutenant JG Charlotte Brexis - Buzzing
Charlotte Brexis
((The Brew Continuum, Deck 3-USS Artemis))
Going over the expectations Charlotte and the captain had for each other seemed to go as well as could be expected.
MacKenzie: Rest assured, Lieutenant, if you’re not meeting the bar, we’ll either make sure you do, or you’ll be reassigned. It’s that simple.
Brexis: I expect nothing less.
MacKenzie: Very good then, I’m glad we’re in agreement. So, what questions can I answer for you at this point? No doubt you’re just getting the lay of the land right now…
Swallowing the last bit of her Espresso, Charlotte nodded.
Brexis: I was curious if there was anything specific you wanted me to accomplish before we leave Ferenginar. ::Chuckling:: I don’t like being idle for too long. It makes me think too much.
MacKenzie: Well the unfortunate reality about being the flagship in the Borderlands is that we’re the default response for any crises that come up. You’ve already identified that you’ll be working with the other department heads, so familiarizing yourself with each of the major regional factions will be critical prior to our departure.
With a cautious smile, Charlotte raised her eyebrow.
Brexis: I can absolutely do that.
MacKenzie: My previous mission reports might be a good place to start - we’ve encountered a lot of interesting stuff in our time…
Charlotte looked into her empty cup and then back up to MacKenzie.
Brexis: Well if that’s the case I’m going to need more coffee. You fancy a refill too?
MacKenzie: I try to limit my caffeine intake after 10. Otherwise I start to buzz and the department chiefs get fussy when I come at them with a lot of energy and ideas for new projects.
MacKenzie stood up as Charlotte chuckled.
Brexis: I’ll be sure to keep that in mind if I ever need someone to brainstorm with.
MacKenzie: I’ll walk with you if you’re going to get more. ::standing, smoothing the front of her uniform:: If you haven’t already, I’d start by having a conversation with Lieutenant K’Wara. They’ll probably be the most helpful to give you the lay of the land.
Following the Captains lead, she stood up and angled herself towards the barista.
Brexis: They are on my list to meet with. I have already spoken with Lieutenant Bergmen. ::Widening her eyes a bit:: Interesting character he is.
MacKenzie dropped her empty cup into the dispenser.
MacKenzie: Bergmen is… quirky. But a good officer. I hear he did some good work on our last mission.
He did seem like a good, well rounded officer. Quirky was an accurate description though.
Brexis: I can’t wait to see him in action when we head out.
MacKenzie: If you’ll excuse me, I have a few more things to get crossed off my list before some appointments this afternoon. If you need anything or you have any questions as you’re meeting the crew and conducting your research, don’t hesitate to ask.
Brexis: Thanks for your time Captain. ::nodding once, affirmatively:: Thanks for the abrupt change of scenery for our meeting.
MacKenzie offered a smile and a nod. Charlotte made a bee-line for the counter. Ordering another Espresso because she wasn’t afraid of a little buzzing while she worked.
End scene for Brexis!
