SIM:Tiger Promotion Ceremony 238604.27
((Conference Room, USS Tiger))
::Sidney paused at the Conference Room door and straightened her jacket once again. She noted how the fabric seemed too loose a fit for her small frame.::
Riley: oO I can't be losing weight...when was the last time I ate? Oo
Odara: Captain, Sir...
::Sidney turned to see her Gideon Yeoman approaching with several small mahogany wooden boxes.::
Riley: Thank you Odara...
Odara: Of course Sir, they were difficult to get with the computer shut down, but I was able to improvise.
Riley: Improvisation... ::There was a question in the Terran/Deltan Captain's voice, but she thought the better to ask.::
Odara: Each member will receive new pips upon their arrival to Deep Space 17, although these are none to shabby Sir.
Riley: Of course...Carry on Crewman.
::Odara nodded to the Captain after giving her the boxes and headed away from the conference room doors. Sidney entered the room purposefully and set the boxes down near LtCmdr. Thelev.::
Riley: Commander.
Thelev: Captain. I'm pleased to see Lieutenant Sharpe still has all his limbs attatched.
Riley: Anything new with our tow?
Thelev: Yes Sir, it turns out Mr Clack's prediction was wrong. So far it's been a very smooth ride.
::Sidney took her seat and looked out over the crew. She smiled lightly.::
Riley: Lieutenant Streath, how long until we arrive at Deep Space 17?
Streath: Approximately three hours.
Riley: Excellent...:: Pause:: At this time I would like to take this opportunity to recognize the excellent service of some of the crew.
::Sidney stood and took the first mahogany box from LtCmdr. Thelev.::
Riley: Lieutenant Solok would you please step forward. ::Sidney waited for the Vulcan CMO to approach.:: Your service to the Tiger has been unfailing. Your attention to detail and skills have saved many on the ship during this last mission. It is with great honor I restore you to the rank of Lieutenant Commander.
Solok: It is an accurate description of my service to date aboard the Tiger, if a somewhat embellished one.

Riley: Congratulations Commander.
Solok: Thank you, Captain.
Streath: Congratulations.
Firestarter: Congratulations as well.
