“Good day Midshipman. A pleasurrre to meet you.”
Jade wasn’t sure whether or not the other officer was trying to appear intimidating, especially as he was revealing his Caitian fangs. Which if the brunette were being honest, was nothing more than instincts like a Human not intentionally showing their pearly whites when smiling. There was also the added scrutiny of observation coming from the Bridge, behind the door officers. The security officer jumbled around in her mind trying to put the name to the face she was seeing out the corner of her eyes.
Jensen, if I’m remembering correctly from my brief look at his background. Might be a command-level officer now, but he rose up through the same departmental training I received. Always nice to see there’s someone with a security mind in charge. Or is that departmental prejudice.
“Enter.”
There wasn’t much of an opportunity for her to get another friendly greeting to her fellow Midshipman. Keeping their Captain waiting wouldn’t be in either of their best interests, not if they actually wanted to go far with their careers. Which granted, she didn’t know where Turner’s ambitions lay as engineers were sometimes happier left to their own devices and tinkering with their ‘toys’.
“After you.”
The brunette knew she was going to need to learn names of the people she was going to be serving with. It wasn’t the politest thing in the universe for other people to be called ‘hey you’, or something similar sounding. Presumably with the Yeager having a smaller crew compliment, compared to something like a Vesta-class, being able to put a name with a face would be a very important skill to have. More so for Jade, as it was more likely that her job would bring her more face time with members of the crew.
After allowing the Engineer to enter, Jade followed suit. The figure on the other side of the desk wasn’t an unknown to Jade, in appearance anyways. It matched the standard profile image for the crew roster, and she’d passed by the Captain once or twice on Antares, but nothing beyond that. Not that it was much of a shock for Jade, because if she were a captain trying to wrangle together a newly finished ship, she wouldn’t have much of a chance to speak with the junior officers either. Stepping to the side of Turner, Jade quietly cupped her hand behind her back and offered a professional greeting.
“Captain Braggins.”
Some commanding officers were different in how they interacted with their crews, but Jade didn’t have much information to go off of. Seeing as there happened to be a pet, what the brunette assumed to be a wolf (although not quite), didn’t solidify any assumptions. Jade had seen some individuals treat their pets better than they do actual people. Either way, she would make her own judgment on her captain’s actions. That was the fairest, and simplest, way to treat anyone.
