(( Cargo Bay 5 - Deck 13 - USS Constitution-B ))
Just because the senior crew was off the Conny and out galavanting
somewhere in the galaxy it didn't mean that the rest of the ship
could rest and play Risa 2.0 on Tucker Station. Oh by Shiva she
wished. But repairs had kept going, upgrades had been set in place
and that meant there was new Cargo to catalogue, categories to
create in the system for all the things that were new. She had
noticed the new memorial and memoribilia walls and now had new
crates with materials for both. Making sure to mark all of these
on the PADD and their new locations.
Cole: Excuse me, Lieutenant Kapoor?
Chandni raised her head from the PADD, her dark eyes resting on
the woman before her. The red hair, the hazel eyes, the unfamiliar
face. Yeah definitely unfamiliar. Her eyes briefly dropped to the
collar and then back to Nat's eyes.
Kapoor: That's me! What can I do for you, Lieutenant?
Cole: I’m Lieutenant Natasha Cole. I was instructed to meet you.
Cole? Cole.. OH Cole! Chandni's face lit up and she held out her
hand to the other woman.
Kapoor: Yes, how lovely to meet you. I'm Chandni Kailashnath
Sanjushree Kapoor. You're in my department, aren't you?
One of the few things her family had instilled on her that still
stuck was the pride in her whole name. A habit hard to get rid of.
Cole: Yes Sir, that is correct I’ve been reassigned as the
Constitution's Strategic Operations Officer. ::looks around:: Do
you need a hand?
Kapoor: Oh stick the Sir. I'm Chandni. And I already got two,
where would I put that?
The Indian woman grinned a cheeky spark in her eyes at her own
joke.
Cole: Response
Kapoor: Well, how much have you heard about the current
situation?
Cole: Response
Kapoor: Well then you know about as much as I do. Bummer, hoped
you'll have some tea. Anyway, during out last mission we were
badly damaged and came here for repairs. While we were at it we
also got upgrades we were overdue for. Imagine no upgrades for
thirty years other than the Quantum Slipstream drive and a bit of
structural integrity.. well and weapons and shields.. but you know
nothing interesting. Well we are still in the past breaths of
those upgrades. Luckily the Senior Officers decided to head off
gallivanting beyond our reach for some mission, so we had some
more time get all this done. And by we I mean the Engineers of the
Station and the ship in perfect unison.
Cole: Response
Kapoor: Exactly! The bridge and sensor arrays, Operations is
getting a whole new suite too. Exciting! But means we are not
ready to head there yet. So.. what do we do next?
Cole: Response
Kapoor: Oh right on boarding. You must want to see your quarters,
so how about we assign you those?
Cole: Response
