Alex's smile faded a bit and he became more serious, "I always try to be prepared for almost anything. I like to think that I'm pretty good at it, but then I encountered the Borg. I'm not sure if I was just lucky, or if my actions managed to actually help turn them away. Either way, I certainly hope to never encounter them again. A bit like getting too close to a black hole, I think sometimes the only thing you can do is to not be there."
Cindy playfully put her hands on her hips and said to him, "Well, aren't you just a ray of sunshine...that got sucked into a black hole..."
Alex's grin returned and he shrugged to Samira, "Sorry about that."
Cindy looked to Samira, "His social skills still need some work, but I'm still trying. He's a work in progress."
Alex ignored the comment and said to Samira, "Do you think that you're ready to start taking an occasional shift of Bridge duty? From what I read, you have the experience to go with your rank and should be able to be put into the rotation. Personally, I don't put much weight on rank unless forced to. I value experience and competence more than rank. I think it might help to put you in front of the Command Staff now and then. The Bridge can be boring, but every once in a while it becomes very intense, like with this last mission. I would like to see how you do with that, if you think you're up to it."
