“I see you’ve got the team hard at work on calibrations already, Lieutenant La’fette.” You project your voice confidently to the room while you address your Tactical officer — reciprocating the formal manner you know he prefers while on duty. “Shall we run the point defence simulation first?”
“That is the plan, Sir.” He replies, nodding. “A standard maximum range torpedo interception scenario. Drilling for speed and accuracy at range.”
Perfect. This is just what you need to demonstrate to your officer that you are still of sound mind and competent leadership. A little demonstration and you’re sure to convince him to help your investigations!
“Why don’t we make that two simulations, Tac?” You suggest innocently. “We’ll drill with half a crew each to simulate casualties in battle? Make a friendly competition of it? Say... your half of the room versus mine?” You grin.
Coen gives you his signature raised eyebrow but accepts your challenge readily enough. He directs his gaze to the right side of the room and quickly begins explaining the new assignment to his team with laser-like focus. You quickly step-to and begin to do the same on the left. You can only hope that your leadership is up to the task of inspiring the shipmen now looking your way.
