Having finished and signed off on the latest shipyard reports, Jenny had moved on to giving the personnel files of her two new Midshipmen another look before they reported in to her officially. She'd seen West on the station while they waited for the Yeager to be completed, but she'd been so busy getting the ship finished on schedule that she'd not had a chance to interact with the newest member of her Security department. West's scores were good, but it seemed she was very much a door-kicker as opposed to a cerebral detective sort. Turner, on the other hand, had already received accolades for creating a warp coil calibration gadget that was more effective than the current standard-issue piece of equipment; she'd had a look at the specs herself and had been suitably impressed, even though she knew mass production was held up in red tape.
We can probably replicate a few anyway, we're going to need brains like his to keep this ship running.
Placing the PADD down, Jenny took a sip of her coffee and grimaced as the tepid liquid filled her mouth. Leaning over to the replicator on the wall next to her desk, she recycled the mug and was rewarded with a fresh mug of her favourite steaming blend. Whether or not it was actually "coffee" was up for debate among those who knew Jenny, as it had coffee in it (with a few shots of espresso depending on mood), but there were also two scoops of cocoa powder, a generous serving of hazelnut, and she used hot milk rather than water. It was thick, sticky, sweet, and its chocolatey aroma filled the room.
Perfect for cold days, bad days, or days ending in Y.
With an appreciative sip of her drink, Jenny placed the mug on her desk where it was within easy reach but wouldn't spill onto her terminal or into her lap if it fell, and shuffled backwards in her chair as the chime sounded. Raiju grumbled from his bed beside her chair, but he settled down with a deep huff. How he was going to react to hew new crew, she didn't know, but for now she was just grateful he was with her again.
"Enter."
