Location:JO's Quarters, USS Hartington
Stardate 53781.6
Character: Ensign McTavish
McTavish stood over the toilet in his quarters. He had no memory of the time between the Captain dismissed him and getting to his quarters. The only thought ringing in his head,
| Quote: | | "I will not regret this, no mater the punishment." |
"I said it out loud, I cant believe I said it out loud", McTavish leaned his head against the bulk head, as he started to grey out. "Computer, Shower on. Water, 8 degrees Celsius. After 30 seconds increase temperature in 10 degree increments until 38 degrees Celsius is reached", As soon as the water was running, McTavish stepped under the spray, still fully dressed.
***********
Sometime later. McTavish had pulled his soiled uniform off as the temperature increased. As his mind had pulled itself together, he cleared his mind of everything and just allowed himself to drift, completely open and unfettered. The 8 minute warning and 10 minute water auto shutoff had come and gone completely unnoticed. McTavish slowly allowed himself to come to his senses, sitting in the bottom of the shower. Something sharp was stabbing into the back of his left thigh, McTavish looked down to see his com badge. The wound didnt look deep but he waited till he was standing and had a medkit out before pulling the com badge out of his leg. The routine of first aid was soothing.
McTavish picked up after him self and moved into his bedroom. He deposited his still wet uniform down a chute and pulled a pair of PJ's from his closet.
"Computer, Messages?"
McTavish was relieved when the Computer came back with a negative. He looked at the Crono on the wall and saw he still had a couple hours to sleep before he had to be awake for work.
"Computer, Set all standard alarms."
As the Computer chirped affirmative, McTavish crawled into bed, The Captains last words to him rang in his ears.

"After we've finished the crew transfers with the Guardian, I'd like you to report to the holodeck. I'll administer the Bridge Officer's Test to you. Should you pass I will see about putting you on the Bridge during Gamma Shift. You're dismissed, Ensign."

A slow smile spread across his face as blackness descended.

(OOC: I really like this post, it gets into his head very well. Nicely done. Move it along if you want to the Holodeck and we'll do the test.)

The meeting with the USS Guardian went in a flash for McTavish. He searched for every note he had made on a PADD regarding Bridge Watch Officer. Both from the Hartington and Adelphi. He read log entries and public entries by other BWO.
McTavish looked into his seventh, steaming mug of Raktajino. Movement outside the view ports in the lounge caught his eye. The USS Guardian was moving away, or was the USS Hartington the one that was moving? McTavish noticed a few odd shapes on the newly refit ship, and he berated himself for not taking the time to exchange info and pleasantries with the Guardian. The new shapes in no way detracted from the beauty of the Guardian. At last the ship was no more than a speck. Looking down at the coffee and PADDS McTavish let out the breath he didnt know he was holding.
"I either know it or I dont. Tomorrow, we will find out." McTavish pushed away from the table and headed for sickbay, smile back in place. He was in certain need of an antacid.
*****
McTavish stood out side of the Holodeck, At attention, even though the corridor was empty.
He tapped his Combadge,"Captain, This is Ensign McTavish, I await your pleasure outside Holodeck 1."
