|Title= Awards Ceremony | |||
|Short Description= Commander Lia Rouiancet leads a promotion ceremony, announcing key changes in the crew's positions. For a comprehensive list of awards and promotions, see . | |||
|Long Description= | |||
The promotion ceremony on the USS Octavia E. Butler, led by Commander Lia Rouiancet, was a significant event to establish her leadership. She began by reading a passage from Octavia E. Butler's "Parable of the Sower," emphasizing diversity and unity. Commander Etan Iljor was acknowledged for his service and announced as the new commanding officer of the 'Oumuamua'. Lieutenant Commander Avander Promontory was promoted to executive officer, and Lieutenant Commander Aine Sherlock was appointed as second officer while retaining her role as chief of security. | |||
Commander Margaret Walker was introduced as the new director of intelligence, replacing Avander. Lieutenant Josh Herrick was promoted to permanent chief of engineering, recognizing his contributions to the ship's infrastructure and propulsion systems. Finally, Lieutenant Lhandon Nilsen was officially made the assistant chief of operations, highlighting his ongoing excellence and personal friendship with Commander Rouiancet. The speech concluded with Lia encouraging the crew to enjoy the refreshments and congratulating their shipmates as she prepared to present individual ribbons. | |||
At the security table, while small talk is made, the tension between Kessler and Winters is still palpable to others. As the captain makes her rounds, she arrives at their table, having a brief discussion with Kessler and Winters which results in Kessler returning as Chief of Tactical. She also somberly awards Sherlock the Prisoner of War ribbon as a result of the last mission. After Rouiancet departs, TK warmly welcomes back Kessler and then is stolen to an outside corridor by Winters, who expresses her concerns around Kessler's return and muses that he's a Zet spy despite TK's reassurances. In their absence at the table, Sherlock fills Richards on some of Lhandon's more 'concerning' moments but positive outlook for the future. | |||
At the operations table, Commander Rouiancet awards Nilsen the Prisoner of War ribbon, emphasizing its significance as a recognition of his endurance and tenacity. Nilsen expresses gratitude, although internally he and Toxin Arlill experience mixed emotions about the occasion. Toxin reflects on his past mission and feels a fleeting sense of guilt about his friend's ordeal. Commander Rouiancet also awards Toxin the Leadership Excellence Ribbon, praising his exceptional performance in leading the marine team to Cheyd'lang. Nilsen congratulates Toxin and recommends meeting the new HCO, but Arlill's responses are abrasive and he internally doubts Nilsen's motivations. | |||
At the engineering table, newly arrived Ensign Morro Caras was introduced to the engineering team, prompting a discussion about their academy experiences. Shevon and Herrick reassured Caras they would try to go easy on him, though Caras insisted he could handle any challenges. Commander Rouiancet further encouraged Caras, stating that the only thing that ever let her down was the turbolift. The team laughed and continued their conversations, building camaraderie. Before departing the table, the captain awarded Herrick the Captains' Commendation. After her departure, Lieutenant Nilsen, recently promoted to Assistant Chief of Operations, surprised Eli with a quite affection greeting. Eli, feeling awkward at the attention, was reassured by Nilsen and led away to the dessert table. | |||
At the medical and sciences table, Qurgh'Loq Yinn (the combination of Loq and Yinn from a transporter accident) is still working to properly operate both bodies with a unified mind. When Rouiancet visits, she awards Stendhal the Unity Ribbon for her contributions to supporting and championing morale and emotional health within the crew and the refugee population. Stendhal expresses her gratitude and pride in serving with the amazing crew of the USS Octavia. Rouiancet then turns to Dr. Toz, handing down two ribbons with assistance from Lohkina. Toz is recognized for her resilience during her imprisonment by the King's Path with the Prisoner of War ribbon. The second ribbon, the newly adopted Excellent in Adaptability Ribbon, acknowledges Toz's versatile roles during the Cheyd'lang mission. Toz is surprised and grateful for the commendations, while Stendhal congratulates her with a smile and applause. Yinn receives the Captains' Ccommendation from Rouiancet, acknowledging his readiness and contributions to the mission, and she also remarks that she's pleased that Yinn will be able to continue on active duty despite the recent accident. | |||
The ceremony ended with all participants of the previous mission being awarded the Maiden Voyage Ribbon, the First Contact Ribbon, the Diplomacy Ribbon, and the Joint Meritorious Unit Award. Afterward, at the head table, Rouiancet lets Avander know that as the incoming CO, part of her wanted to do the awards solo for her first round but that he'd be involved to a greater degree in subsequent ceremonies. | |||
