[sb118-butler] Lieutenant. Jg Alex Forsyth - See that wasn't so bad.

[Robert Forsyth]

(( Chief Engineer's Office, Deck 11, USS Octavia E Butler ))

Forsyth: I forgot you were not on the Butler when I arrived, Cap’n.

Valk: It was a simple mistake, sister.

Rouiancet: (dry) I missed more than a few events, it seems.

Properly for the best, they went through a hectic ordeal. Alex was happy not to be trapped in past or the future.  

Herrick: Well, it seems like we have the chance to get it all sorted now at least!

Forsyth: I’ll do better next time, Ma’am. 

Valk: Indeed, Thank you for giving me a chance. 

Herrick: So we'll get you all sorted and paperwork filed. There will be a preliminary screening as well with Starfleet Security, Humanoid Resources, and a basic aptitude test to understand your proficiency levels. Shouldn't take too long and we'll have you in uniform.

Valk: Acceptable, Sir.

Forsyth: Don’t get any idea, Just because I’m your sister.

She highly doubted he would, it didn’t seem like a thing he would do. Valk had shown to be like her father in a way, helping and kind but with a vulcan twist. 

Herrick: For a ship-driven posting, we typically start at the beginning of the NCO ranks and let folks work their way up based on time and performance. So we'll start you out at Crewman, Third Class, and see how it goes.

Rouiancet: (a clap; standing) Well! This all seems in order. (to Josh) Keep me apprised, Lieutenant, please. (to Valk and Forsyth) Welcome aboard, both of you, and (to Forsyth) I'd like the opportunity to get to know you better, Lieutenant Forsyth. I'll reach out.

Herrick: (standing as the Captain did) Aye sir, will do!

Forsyth: Forsyth: O-Of course, Ma'am.

Valk: Thank you, Captain.

She saw from the corner of her eye, Valk giving her a small grin at her nervousness. The Captain took her leave which just left Alex, her brother and the chief. 

Herrick: So, shall we start with the tour?

Valk tried suppressing his excitement, he had been dying to see the main engineering.

Valk: Of course, That would be Logical. 

Forsyth: Lead the way, sir.

With that Alex and Valk got up and followed the Chief, she gave him a playful nudge with her elbow as they walked out.

[End for Alex and Valk]
