Timeline: After whats in the atmosphere

Having dropped her hand luggage into her quarters, Sky had checked in the mirror to make sure she looked presentable before grabbing her transfer orders and heading to see Commander Greyson her new XO. She was hoping to catch Greyson in his office, knowing that most execs were more at home on the bridge.

Cameron had just turned the corner and saw an unfamiliar face at the door to his office. He knew that the ship had just received a new officer from the USS Wildcat, that had did one of the more unusual stop and go transports. It had deposited the ships new counsellor as it had been en route to assist with a squirmish with the klingons. Something he did not envy.

"Lt Jenson I presume." He replied as he walked up behind her. "Sorry, the Captain is down on the surface, im stuck up here." He unlocked his office and walking in, and gestured her to follow. "May I get you something." He gestured to a cabinet full of alcohol. He opened up a door, took out two shot glasses and poured the two full of whiskey. "Two shots mid day, two shots in the evening. The only thing I got off my father." It wasn't what he had come down here for. He sat behind his desk going through the padds on the desk, looking for some information.

Sky raised her eyebrows, very in a way that would make a Vulcan proud as she looked at the glasses of whiskey. “Not to sound picky Sir but it’s Jansen, an easy name to mispronounce and many people do.” She smiled warmly. “I’ll settle for one of those if you don’t mind, I’m not a big drinker as it doesn’t suit us Betazoids but one never hurts.” She placed the PADD with her transfer orders before him. “My transfer orders Sir.”

"Apologies LT," Cameron replied as he got another shot glass. Pouring the whiskey in he handed it to her. "Lt Morrison is your Assistant, shes quite the officer, I’m sure you will get along well."

“I’m looking forward to meeting her Sir” Sky smiled and picked up the shot glass taking a small shot of the drink. She pulled a face and coughed before whistling. “Wow! That’s a powerful one!” She couldn’t help but grin.

"From my fathers collection. The only thing he ever did good was buy the good stuff."

Sky smiled. “Good job it’s just the one then. This would definitely go to my head. Anyway, I should be acting more my professional self especially in-front of a new Executive Officer. “I can’t commend transport Chief Tuscadero enough, he was very courteous in helping me to my quarters with my case. He’s very pleasant to talk to as well. I think he’d make a very good Ambassador for the ship when you have visitors aboard Sir.”

"Being the first face they see I certainly hope so Lt." Cameron replied as he found the pad they he was looking for. He downed the two shots, and stood. "Is there anything else Lt. Sorry to be rushed, but we have a team on the surface, and things aren't settling with me too well."

“Oh .. of course Sir. I’ll leave my transfer orders with you and let you get back to the bridge.” She nodded politely. “I’ll join you on the bridge soon.” With that she nodded politely and started toward the door.

Taking the orders, he accepted it, "Welcome to the crew lt."

Pausing by the door Sky smiled warmly. “Thank you Sir” with that she headed on her way.
