"Well that explains why you are such a terrible read on all the other crew you mentioned."
Raising an eyebrow, Caity looked at him,
"What explains what exactly?"
"You only have eyes for the first officer. Kinda blinds you to everyone else I'd think."
Astonished by his words, Caity felt a familiar flare of anger build within her. An anger that she thought long since gone but was soon warming through her like an old, unwanted friend.
"Well for starters your captain has a reputation for being friendly and personable. At least according to everyone who ever served with him in the fighter wing. Did you know that somewhere around 15% of the crew made up part of the fighter squad, whether as pilots, tactical officers, fighter technicians, communications officers. Some recruited, many requested the transfer. So why do you say he's not personable?"
"Firstly, not personable was probably the incorrect term to use."
(Reply Nix)
"I don't know him well enough yet. Is he a nice man? Yes. I just haven't had enough interaction with him to make an informed judgement on his character. "
(Reply Nix)
"Secondly, how dare you!"
(Reply Nix)
"How dare you suggest that whatever I may or may not feel for the first officer blinds me to the characters of others.
You only know what you have read in the reports. You don't truly know them. You don't know me."
(Reply Nix)
Taking a deep breath, Caity sighed heavily, "I'm sorry. I get defensive when people make snap judgements."
(Reply Nix)
"It's a long story that you don't need to hear and one I don't particularly want to tell right now. I apologise for my outburst."
(Reply Nix)
"They're a good crew. They might surprise us both yet."
(Reply Nix)
(Reply Nix, any)
