Returning to taking care of the pramha checking for the extra bedding making a little nest for his girl and little comforting noises petting them for several minutes quieting them.
After afew moments he would return to the table looking over the new fighter models and science studies on the tarawas computers examining the engineering break downs and watching the readings on thier defensive and offensive capiabilities

Thomas got off his bed and began to organize his room.He placed the many real books as he called them on his shelf.he was proud of his collection.He had everything from Shakespeare to modern writers like Qaitean.
He then hung his replica Marine Sabers on his wall.Thomas was still surprised at the size of his quarters.He would have to get more things for his walls.This was his sanctuary that he knew he would need in the days to come.
Chuckling he knew as the new CO that would be few and far between but still it was home.He finished putting up his other effects and looked around.
"A work in progress",he said to himself and smiled.Thomas headed out of his quarters and made his way to the Bridge.
As he entered a marine shouted Colonel on the Bridge and saluted.Thomas saluted back and told everyone as you were.
He stood there for a moment looking at the layout.Thomas was pleased at the way the Bridge was designed.It was roomy but built for easy functioning and every station was set up in a way to make work easier on the crew member as well as being able to transfer stations if need be.
He continued to look around and finally sat in the big chair as he used to call it.It too was designed to access all areas of the ship but was comfortable as well.He would never admit to it but Thomas had a back that tended to get sore easily.

While Thomas was looking over his gear and weapons that assigned to him in his locker, he heard Sgt Kol’rah from behind, feeling a great slap on his back. The slap on his back left a slight ting sensation, but as a true Marine, he ignored it. He smirked as he looked over at Kol’rah; sheathing is combat knife and placing it in his pants leg.
“Thank you, Sgt. I did not expect a promotion so soon out of the Academy. It already had been over a year that I’ve graduated from the Academy.”, Thomas replied to him. He looked around the room and looked back at him before responding.
“Not bad, not bad at all. When I first came on board, I have heard that the Marine Armory/Weapon/Training Area so happens to be better than on the Vindicator. Therefore, I just have to come and check it out myself. I have seen the new Marine Commanding Officer and he was asking about you. I have not completely gotten an opinion about him since I have only meet him once, but as for as I can tell, he is going to be one of the great ones.”
Thomas understood that it takes more than one meeting to know what a person is like, but he could tell that MCpt Trlhoell will be their for the Marines and show a great leadership among them.

Zar was going over the diagnostic as Colonel Allen walked onto the bridge. When she heard Colonel on the bridge she immediately went to stood at attention, followed by a salute. This would be the only time she would salute him.
She then heard him as he said As your were. She sat down and continued to read the diagnostic report. A few moments passed she stood letting her relief know where she was headed and walked off the bridge. She needed to complete her preparations so the Tawara would be ready to depart on schedule. She would glide out of the docking as graceful as terran swan. But to do this she needed to personally check on all related departments. She was after all chief of Helm/navigation.
As she walking off she nodded to everyone and then nodded to the Major as she stepped off the TL.

Kelly was doing his morning jog when he heard the Colonel's announcement."Bloody hell"he mumbled.He finished his run back at his quarters.
He began hastily packing as he ate a quick breakfast of toast and juice.Finally he had everything shoved in his bags and headed out.
Getting to the airlock he noticed most of the ships crew was hurrying as well.He walked around the circular ring until he reached the Tarawa.
He smiled his playful smile as he was checked by a cute Sheila marine.Kelly picked up his bags and found the quarter master.he thanked him as he was assigned his quarters.
Kelly entered the TL and listened to the hum as it made its way to his area of the ship.Exiting the TL he found his quarters around a corner.
Upon entering he was surprised at the size and comfort of his room.He began to unpack carefully hanging his pictures of fighters and ships of the 21st century.
Kelly walked to his replicator and ordered ice water.Tapping his comm badge,"Akoval this is Kelly,I thought when you had the chance we could meet in the hangar and check out the set up plus go over the specs of our new babies.If so just meet me there Kelly out."
He finished his water and headed for the Hangar deck.upon arrival Kelly was amazed.This ships hangar was HUGE.
He walked around looking over the new fighters and looking at his PADD on their specs.

Post by 1st Lt Kestra Elbrun on Aug 31, 2006 23:47:43 GMT -5
Kestra was sitting in her chair, designated for her, when she heard the turbo lift doors opened and someone announced Colonel on deck. She stood up from her chair and saluted him. After hearing him to go at ease, she waited for a moment until he sat down in his chair before returning to hers.
“Hello, sir. I can tell that you are enjoying your chair already.”, she said jokingly. She smiled at him and everyone else that were there. Kestra was not able to disagree that the chairs were indeed comfortable. The chair she had on the Tarawa so happens to be more comfortable than the one on the Vindicator.
“How are you adjusting to command, sir?, Kestra asked of him. She wanted to know what Colonel Allen was thinking. It was her duty to know what her Commanding Officer so happens to be thinking on anything of importance. A sudden change of command considered importance to her when it comes to the emotional welfare of the crew.
Kestra kept her mind and ‘senses’ open for any changes that she needs to be aware of, but also kept in mind of what is considered private thoughts and will not cross that line. She does not want to intrude on other people’s thoughts unless they want her to know what they were thinking or feeling. She will just use her abilities in a less intrusive ways.

She walked the short distance to the TL getting in she turned and faced the doors. "computer bridge" was the simple command she gave. The TL moved almost silently except for a low hum. Many would not perceive it but she did. When the doors opened she got out and nodded to Captain Dorius as she entered the TL.
She stood there for a moment antennae moving as she looked at the different areas of the bridge. She noted who was on the bridge, what they were doing and where their were relative to the TL. All of this was done without thinking it was ingrained in her. As a child on a world like Andor it was important to learn to assess your location and what was there. To know avenues of escape or how to return.
She walked over to Colonel Allen.
"Sir Major Aniri reporting as order sir." She stood at attention even her antennae were motionless.

Kelly shook akoval,s hand."Call me Kelly unless the big brass is around.You are right these fighters are top notch.Akoval we will depend on each other out there as I am sure you are aware."
Kelly walked with him as they talked,"I would like to get to know you better.I believe the more we know about each other the better we can trust each other when the fur flies."
Kelly stopped walking,"Also some simulation joint training would not hurt." Kelly smiled as he watched the Andorian's response.

Akoval smiled briefly both at Kellys casual comment and the prospect of getting trraining in on the fighters. alright Kelly it is then unless of course the big brass are hanging about. that name sounds Australian terren of course by form but surely within that landmass.placing his hands behind his back looking up"this is a rather impressive ship and one of the best crews i've seen in a while, they should do fine with us out there.

Kasia saw a human science officer enter sickbay, she didnt recognize the officer but assumed that she probably had come into check on the science equipment. But instead of going to the science labs she went into the CMO's office and then returned out to sickbay where Kasia had been taking inventory. She came out and shook Kasia's hand introducing herself.
"Sorry I have not had the chance to meet you yet,my name is Amy you must be Kasia. I am so glad to have you on my staff. I have your file some where in here and it has nothing but good things to say about you. Well what do you think of our new working area?"
Kasia simply smiles at the comments. "Thank you mam, I will do my best here." She then glances around sickbay herself. "It seems to be very well set up, the designers must have had a doctor on their staff who knew what designs worked best for treating paitents and making them comfortable and at ease. Everything seems to be in order so far, I dont think we will need to transfer anything over from the Vindicator, but It might be a good idea just so we have the extra supplies. That is if we have the space and its approved by the captain."

Thomas looked up from the Command Chair as he heard LT. Elbrum.
Smiling slightly,"It is a nice chair indeed.The important thing is how she functions and from what I can see she is designed perfectly for that."
Thomas looked straight at her as he addressed her second question."That Counselor is yet to be seen.If you are asking am I ready for the challenge yes I am. I appreciate the question however it is food for thought."
Thomas heard the voice of Jaylas,"Sir Major Aniri reporting as order sir." Excuse me counselor," At ease Jaylas."
Thomas stood,"Care to take a walk Major?"Thomas lead her to the ready room.When the doors closed he motioned for her to have a seat.
Thomas took his seat as well,"I was wanting to know what you think of the crew's readiness.Very soon we will be leaving for the Star Fleet training grounds.As my XO Jaylas I value your opinion and I will be leaning on you to help me get this ship and the crew ready."
Thomas stopped there and ordered a coffee from the replicator,"There go my manners care for anything to drink?'

Kelly chuckled at Akoval's last comment,"Very true my friend we fighter pilots are often under appreciated but I have a feeling this will be different."
"You are very astute I am from Sydney Australia,and yes she is one heck of a ship as far as I have seen so far."Kelly leaned against a bulk head.
"So Akoval how much fighter experience have you had?"Kelly smiled warmly finding though different his gut told him this was a pilot he could count on.

As he told her as you were she took a more relaxed posture. Then nodded as he asked her if she cared to take a walk. After all her time in the military she understood what that meant. She followed him into the ready room. Figuring she would be dressed down for getting drunk at the dinner. But was surprised when he failed to mention it and was being honest relieved.
She sat down where he motioned her to seat. And she listened as he spoke to her. Her antenna leaning forward and moving slightly at different points while he spoke.
When he offered her something to drink she accepted his hospitality as a sign of her acceptance of him. And it was considered proper to do so.
"Andorian tea please." he handed her the cup and took it. Sipping it she carefully worded her answers to him.
"From what I've seen and heard they are more then ready to leave. Many have spoken of a desired to do something anything to break the boredom. This training exercise should fulfill that nicely for them."
She looked at him and waited to hear what he had to say.

"Well theres the time with the andorian survey and defense council about two years my previous earth side assignments about 350 hours logged in the simulations another 200 hours live time. you'll find all my logs and service records on order in the ships library for review at your leisure. smirking again briefly and as to where i'm sure your native homeland is a charmng and quant plae you can keep it for the glacier topped peaks of Andor and the geothermal wells of the cities being still over all my prefered favorites" .chuckling softly "so hot on earth even found your glacial poles to be a bit of a sweat for me from time to time "
