Engineering - Day 26 - OPEN
Jim supposed that, maybe, since they were docked and he had nothing pressing to do, it would have made more sense to wander the starbase a while, get off the ship. It would’ve been a change of scenery, and maybe, if he had time in the next few days, he would leave, but for now, he needed to spend some time with his girl.
With only essential, working crew on duty in Engineering (plus Scotty, he could only assume, who never seemed to be off duty) it was a little less hectic than usual down there. Even moreso than usual, everyone had a maintenance task and was completely absorbed in it. Jim moved through the various turns and quirks of the Engineering deck with ease, not knowing all his girl’s secrets yet, but definitely getting there. When crew caught his eye, he would stop and chat, offer praise from Captain Kirk or idle commentary from Jim as he felt it necessary. All in all, it was a nice afternoon.
((ooc: random open post ftw, just because y’all deserve a chance to work out dynamics with my Kirk if you want. Feel free to find him wandering Engineering, on his way to the mess afterwards, or by paging him and being like ‘sir, wtf are you doing?’))
