Re: Bridge
Dorn entered the bridge, finding only a skeleton crew because of the late shift, and sat down in his comfortable Captain's chair. A relic from his submarine days, he had the chair brought on and installed a few weeks before departure, the only demand he had made, and the only concession GNA had allowed him.
He and the chair went way back. It had been his seat on the HMS Dreadnought, and it fit him like a glove. A tight glove now that he got older, but it was his chair, and he took it with him when Dreadnought was decommissioned in 2031. Assigned to the Polo then, he had taken the old leather seat with him as a badge of honor.
As he sat down in it now, nearing midnight, with only the vast black expanse around him, he felt at home for the first time since being woken up.
Most likely because now, for the time since having been awakened, he had the idea they were getting ahead. Finally they knew where they are, and where they were going.
"Helm, update the systems with the information Staff Sergeant Germaine just transferred. Adjust ship data to account for our new position."
He flipped a switch on the console next to his arm rest.
"Donk shop, I want those engines up and running in an hour!"
