Sothrick stood at the ready as Keti filed in beside him. As the superior officer he assumed whatever the error was he would get the brunt of it and he was ready to except it.
As she began he understood where the Captain irritation was. He, in some ways, dealt with the same when he took over the Geronimo.
He nodded as she finished. His first instinct was to take the blame for Keti and then apologize for letting the infraction happen. Neither was not a good response. He did not want to make Keti's honest mistake greater or undermine her by adding anything more.
Really his only reply and the only reply Keti should have too was,...
"Aye Captain."
He said then seeing that she was dismissive he turned, sharply to take his leave.
The interaction, while not pleasant, did give Sothrick a bit more of a better understanding of his new Captain. It gave him a little more respect for her. He knew of her illustrious career and even though he was eager to get back to being a Captain himself he was appreciative to have the opportunity to learn from another experienced Captain.
