Expanded Beginnings

Calton: Then we may be able to save him!!

"I know, but you're talking to the wrong person right now. and the engines are still resetting"
(note everything thats happened will have been relayed to Johnson)

Calton: What about shuttles!? We've got to have some working shuttles!!

"Again, you're talking to the wrong person here"
OOC I am permitting johnson to take charge for the time being

OOC: Oh joy....

IC:

Calton: Then who's in charge!?
________________________________________________________
*Meanwhile, Johnson is trying to get a handle on the situation and get damage under control.*

Johnson: Goddammit!! Nothing's ever simple. You try to bring down a megalomaniac and things to go shit before the mission even really starts!! SOMEONE GET ME A DAMN SITREP FOR THE DAMAGED DECKS!!!

"For now someone called Johnson, but going by the rules Kharr made, Celi"

he gets a sitrep. all things are fine other than the missing chunk of the ship, but airlocks have prevented that being a serious issue. all the eezo from the store is gone with the room tho, so they'd need to re-stock or scavange once they've followed through the relay

Calton:....................
___________________________________________________
Johnson: Damn it.....Alright, I want eezo brought from some of the other ships so we don't have to worry about it just yet. Then, we take a small force through the relay.

.......

they do so
the N7s report to him

Calton: Just...*sighs* Alright. I'll tell her when she wakes up....
_____________________________________________
Johnson: Were any of you with Kharr when the relay suddenly decided to eat part of the ship?

she nods

"One of us was. Jason. he got sucked through with Kharr."

Johnson: Goddammit!! Alright....I don't know anything about Omega except for common knowledge, when the force goes through the relay, I'm going to be relying on you.

bob salutes

*He returns it.*

Johnson: Now, be honest with me. It won't be problem that I'm the one giving orders for now, is it?

OOC: *whistles*

IC: *leans against the bulkhead and watches her work*

OOC: Sorry.

IC: *She either doesn't notice or doesn't care.*

"Not at all. someone has to and you've got yer head screwed on right"

Johnson: Small relief. Alright, I want you people to get everyone ready. We're going to be going through the relay soon.

OOC: why are you apologising?

"Enjoying yourself?"

Engineer: Yes, thank you very much.

"on it. And sir, thought i should let you know who's technically meant to be in charge if Kharr didn't Survive"

Johnson: Who?

"Good! So what's wrong with it?"
*crouches next to her*

"His sister, Celi"

Engineer: A stabilizer is out of alignment. Could cause a power surge under the right conditions.
_______________________________________________________
Johnson: You're not kidding, are you?

"I wouldn't joke about this shit sir"

Johnson: *Sighs* Understood. Poor girl is going to be in over her head from what I've seen of her...

"Would you like any assistance?"

Engineer: Not unless you know a thing or two about aligning eezo stabilizers.

Bob: pretty sure she'll appreciate any help you can provide sir.

*gives a very brief synospsis on Eezo stabalisers*
"Just tell me what to do"

Johnson: I'll do my best.
________________________________________________
Engineer: Well, put on these gloves if you don't want your ass fried.

*does so whilst wondering if she's realised that he's her superior*

*She probably hasn't, largely because if she screws up there's the ever so slight chance the ship could explode.*

*good point, time skip?*

*Sure*

bob nods

*half an hour later*

*Time skip to a small force of Void ships, including the Dracan, traveling through the relay.*
____________________________________
Engineer: Surprised a gunny knows so much about eezo.

"It helps to know what keeps the guns firing. I'm Robert by the way"
*stands and offers her his hand*

they find the room floating in space. the eezo's been untouched but there are ships incoming from omega

*She takes it.*

Engineer: Eliza.
__________________________________________________________
Johnson: Tell the incoming ships to back away and that any further approach will be considered hostile.

"A pleasure"
*removes his gloves*

Eliza: Thanks for the help with the stabilizer. Damn thing was jammed.

Rob: Anytime, wanna hit the mess hall or would you like some more assistance with your job?"

Eliza: No, that's it for now.

"Alright"

Eliza: After you then.

they do so but remain at a set distance

Johnson: I want a team scouring the room yesterday people!

*They begin walking to the mess hall*
"So tell me a bit about yourself"

Eliza: Not much to tell. Usual inner colony upbringing. Went to an average college, got a degree in engineering, now I'm serving on this ship.
