As it happened, the poor young Midshipmen didn't have a chance to depart themselves before the Yeager's most...unique...engineer seemed to decide now was the best time to barge in on the meeting. He introduced himself with far more words than Jenny usually expected from him unless he was describing his newest pet project or when he was explaining why "The Book" was wrong and his own more unorthodox methods were more appropriate. Six weeks together on the old Yeager, ferrying cargo and hunting the occasional pirate, had led her to trust his instincts when it came to novel solutions to unexpected situations. It wasn't his fault his old ship was winging its way to the breaker's yard, but Jenny did wonder if she'd done him a disservice by bringing him here - he probably would have been much happier somewhere he could tinker with his toys all day long.
I must introduce him to Nahamcam, they'd get along like a house on fire. A Pakled and an Eighth-Klingon walk into a workshop...
“I was told you might want to see me?”
Not right this second, I didn't, but you might as well make yourself useful now you're here...
Jenny smiled warmly at Ian, which was something likely to make him suspicious as she wasn't really someone who smiled often when the ship was underway. That said, with two new Midshipmen present and the ship still in its construction slip, it wouldn't do for her to return to her usual ways quite yet.
"Yes, Ian. This is Midshipman Turner, I'd like you to take him down to Engineering, introduce him to Lieutenant Hydish and show him around. Mister Turner is something of an inventor, I think you two will find you have a fair amount in common."
