Shione listened to what the Captain had to say and took the box from him pausing to allow him to finish his thought.
"I feel the ceremony idea; while good and would introduce the new crew to yours; I have always handed out promotions and medals privately preferring the one-on-one approach. With the drama that is going on in Mala's case I personally would rather handle it privately. And isn't there a JG pip for her as well?"
She paused before elaborating; "With all that is going on in sickbay with this pregnancy issue I would rather tone things down and return her to a one on one. Mala and I share a common mixed heritage but all this emotional turmoil she has been exhibiting demonstrates to me that she is sublimating her Vulcan side and I need to bring her back to that hoping that some meditational practices could help bring all of this under control."
Shione then listened and 'tried' not to react to the mention of the current Philly FO, but wasn't sure she hadn't flinched.
Continuing as the FO spoke; Shione smiled slightly at the assertion that some people allowed rank to consume them and when the FO finished Shione added" I am very comfortable in my skin and my rank. Unlike my subordinate I maintain my focus through regular meditation, and other than the relationship I have with my Wife and daughter there are very very few things that get to my head."
She paused, adding "Is there anything else that we need to discuss at this time, and if not, I thank you both again for this opportunity and be assured I will endeavor to not let you or the ship down?"
