==Ensign Oliver "Ollie" Pearson - Security NRC==
Ensign Ollie Pearson had been a mainstay in Starfleet security for years. The blond headed, 30 year old enlisted man from Australia on Earth, had served aboard the Artemis for only a short time, but the half decade spent aboard the USS Reykjavik, and subsequent time leading search and rescue on Starbase 56 had given him a breadth of experience. After an unfortunate incident which resulted in Pearson's "reassignment and reclassification back to Ensign" Pearson joined the Artemis Crew as a junior officer. Instead of allowing the experience to undermine his career, Ollie had seen it as a second chance, an opportunity to perform his duty. He knew he was lucky, and he wasn't one to take good fortune for granted. He was genuinely happy to share his experience and just do his job as best he could.
His time serving on Ensign Svenson's security team had been generally positive. He found the young Betazoid hybrid to be proficient and thorough, capable and often inspiring. She was a good squad leader, and he was glad to be assigned to her.
Chief Calleja had been hard to parse, but ultimately had earned Ollie's trust. She was a hard charger, very old school in a lot of ways, and excellent to work for so long as you did your job. Pearson saw her as an equal, a warrior, and while demanding, had earned his full respect.
As transporter room began to fill, Pearson busied himself with helping his teammates with their gearchecks and offering quiet words of encouragement. He knew how anxious the people in the room were feeling, and while they were excited to 'go to work' he also knew how often the uncertainties of a boarding action could occupy the minds of even veteran security personnel. Ollie did his best to appear calm and confident, to acknowledge his peers feelings while offering positivity, and to be the very best rock that Svenson and Calleja could rely on.
"Gearchecks are complete Sven. We are ready to party." Pearson said succinctly, his aussie accent inadvertently laiden with swagger and confidence. As he finished the phrase, Calleja entered the room, and Pearson nodded to her, a slight smile on his face as he picked up his phaser rifle and held it across his torso.
Mara began the briefing, and Pearson made note of the details as she listed them. As the CSO said, “Each team has an assigned objective. Svenson, your team is on bridge duty. We’re bein' joined by Cap’n Givens and I want her with you as you’re vastly more diplomatic than I am. Take our doctor with you too so he can respond to any other team.” Pearson's eyes widened with a hint of surprise.
Bridge action? This might be 'hard yakka' after all. With the thought he glanced at Givens and then to Dr. Ostberg, who he offered a reassuring smile. As the the briefing concluded he looked to his teammates and stage whispered cheerfully, "I'm betting no drama. Smooth as silk." He winked at Svenson and added in his particular Aussie way, "Apples, she'll be. Right Sir?"
