USS Braveheart
Bridge

"Welcome aboard Lieutenant." Connor said and gestured to his ready room. "Please join me," he walked inside and behind his desk though hesitated a bit before he sat down. He was in another Captain's private retreat; it seemed like he was having an affair with the Braveheart behind Captain Trane's back and it didn't sit well with Connor.
He remained uncomfortable in the chair while watched Bryan. "Have a seat."
Bryan followed the Commander into his ready room and took the seat that was offered to him and said "Thank you Sir" still feeling nervous as he had never liked being in a room alone with a superior officer at least it's not a turbo lift he thought whilst waiting for the Commander to say something.
Connor found the chair slightly unfortable due to his tail and sat a little forward. "With your duties aboard Thrinacia, did you do much piloting?"
Bryan shook his head and said "No sir. Actually I was just assigned to the Starbase this morning but I did spend some of my time on a Galaxy class ship when I was in the Academy."
"The Majesty?" Connor asked.
"No it was the the USS Challenger" Bryan replied.
"You piloted the ship? How many hours, give or take, around about figure?" Connor just getting a feel for his new navigator.
Bryan nodded and said "Yes. At first I was supposed to be an observer but the Chief officer was injured when the ship ran into a small field of cloaked mine's it almost destroyed the ship. I was called upon to take over as the ship only had a skeleton crew and there were no other Helm officer's aboard. I had to pilot the ship for about 48 hours on manual to get back to Earth for repairs."
Connor smiled. "Well done," he was impressed with Bryan's courage. "Being chief you will have more responsibility then an ordinary pilot, like on the starbase you will be in charge of your department's roster, training schedule and master of the shuttlebays and their personnel." He said in a more formal tone.
Bryan nodded slowly as the Commander Spoke before saying "I intend to make sure all the pilots training is kept up to date whilst i am the Chief of the department I will also have try to have the roster put together by tomorrow morning." he paused thinking for a moment and then said "When is the ship scheduled to leave sir?"
"Soon, there is a staff meeting in two hours and I will be briefing everyone on our mission. Just do what you can to get everything prepared." Connor said, "Any position changes in your department will need permission from the first officer, who is currently on the bridge, Commander Grax."
Bryan nodded and said "Aye Sir I will get right on it" He wondered if Ensign Williams knew yet.
Connor stood and offered his hand. "Welcome to the Braveheart Lieutenant, I know I said it outside before but you will be hearing it more for a while." He smiled.
Bryan stood up and took the offered hand and shook it before saying "Thank you Sir. I look forward to serving aboard such a fine vessel" one of Bryans ambitions was to serve or even Command a Sovereign Class vessel.
"I look forward to seeing what you can do, if nothing else your dismissed." Connor put his hand behind his back after the handshake.
"Nothing else Sir" Bryan said and then gave the Commander a salute before leaving the ready room. Bryan stepped out onto the Bridge and looked around and spotted the Helm station he walked straight over to it but when he got there he didn't sit down instead he just stood looking at the station I'm gonna need a bit more practise he thought as the last time he actually flew a ship was back in his academy days. So he decided that once the meeting was over he was going to go to the holodeck and practise for a bit. so he headed turned and headed began to walk back to his quarters to prepare for the meeting and to get the roster ready.
Connor meanwhile was reviewing everything about his new command, personnel, the ship, starfleet reports and so on before he would address the crew about everything.
