[USS Calypso - Operations HQ]
Tovan got up from his chair in his office and headed into the main area of the operations HQ. There was a rather large desk located in the middle of the room with stools lined up around it. The desk was oval in shape and it served as a console as well. One like it could be found aboard the Deep Space Nine bridge or operations. This one was a Starfleet designed.
His officers had gathered in the room. There was an empty stool located right across for his office. It was left for him. To right was Lt. JG Morgan Faye. The woman that attacked him earlier about a situation that happened aboard the Starbase. Next to her was Ensign Fresa, he didn't know much about her expect that she was something he had never seen before. He was looking forward to speaking with her and learning more about her.
The rest of the stools was filled by Ensign Owen, Chief Petty Officer Gates, Master Chief Apu and Master Warrant Officer Matthews. He approached the stool and took a seat.
"I have called this meeting in order to introduce myself to you, and also for you to introduce yourself to one another. I am not sure how many of you know each other but there are a lot of new faces aboard this vessel and in this department." Tovan said. "If we are all to work with each other we should at least know each others names."
"I am Lieutenant Delon Tovan. My position here is Chief Operations officer. I know that this posting had been given to someone else but do to unforeseen circumstances they had been called to another ship, so I was given this position." Delon paused for a moment looking around the table until he stopped at Morgan. "I'd like to introduce you all to Lieutenant Faye; she will be serving as an Assistant Chief Operations officer."
This was something that Tovan didn't discuss with Faye so when he had introduced her to the rest of the team she was surprised, even in a bit of a shock. She had thought that she would be the last person that would receive such a position after the way she had attacked. She was pleased and happy that he choose her but not completely sure why he did it. She nodded to everyone in the room, slightly embarrassed and speechless.
Delon was pleased himself at the moment. It was something he didn't plan on doing but he believed that this was the right decision. There would be a conversation to follow after this but he was ready for it. He turned his attention to Ensign Fresa. "Ensign Suzette de Fresa, why don't you tell us a little bit about yourself."
Suzette was surprised. She was usually overlooked, and she often preferred it that way. "I'm from Crepethia. I came here through a man-made anomaly and I was in the science department working as a bridge officer until I transferred to Operations when we moved to the Calypso," she said quietly, not sure what he wanted to know.
Delon sat there listening to what the young ensign had to say. He would be lying if he said he wasn't intrigued by her and her species. "Well, it's very nice to have you here with us Ensign. I don't know much about the Crepethia but I hope to learn more about you and your species."
"All right," she said quietly. "I have some information in the science database if you wish to look at it."
"I plan on it." Delon nodded and for once actually gave half a smile before moving onto the next person in the room. They continued to go around the table each of them introducing themselves and giving a little bit information about who they are and what they do. It finally returned back to Delon. "Alright. I am pretty sure that all of you know what to do... But before we move on, I'd like to take this opportunity to ask if there are any questions..." He looked around the table.
Suzette was impressed that the new Chief Ops was making a point of getting to know everyone in his department. Commander York would make a point of talking to everyone and knowing everyone by name, but she'd never called a meeting like this.
Seeing that there were no other questions from any of the crew he nodded to them and then pushed his stool back standing up. "Well, everyone is dismissed. If you have any questions, concerns or problems feel free to point them in the direction of out new Assistant Chief Operations Officer." Delon nodded to them once more than turned around and headed into his office.
