[Charles Raschen]

Mission:  The Ring of the Rephaim
Day: 2
Stardate: 2446.09.01

(USS Illuminar – Deck 1 – Bridge – Marine – LT Charles Temerity – 0805)

Charles had been plagued with nightmares throughout the night.  He never
imagined he would look forward to writing reports as a refuge from bad
dreams.  But he had finished all of his reports for LCDR T’Mur, Captain
Sekal, and General Bloom. Once finished, he returned to his sleeping-pod
and just stared at his bed with some trepidation before deciding to go for
a walk.

Someone was singing and celebrating a birthday, but Temerity wasn’t sure of
whose birthday it was.  After a short while he was stepping onto a
turbo-lift. He didn’t even name off a destination, and before he realized
where he was at, LT Temerity was stepping out of the lift and onto the
bridge.

“And so, today is Luma/Illuminar’s birthday, and worthy of celebration,” he
heard T’Mur state as she looked over at Sienna and nodded, “I believe that
there will be a celebration this evening.  Commander Verin has been… hiding
some thoughts from me, but I got the general idea that she had something
“fun” in store.”

Realization dawning on Charles about the uniqueness of the Illumiar and who
Luma was. “That actually explains a lot.” He said quietly to no one in
particular.  Remembering where he was and the fact that he was not an
actual bridge officer, he knew to ask to enter and so Charles announced
“Lieutenant Temerity request permission to enter the bridge.” As dictated
per centuries of naval tradition, even aboard tramp freighters like the one
he had captained, the Errant.

Once permission was granted, Temerity simply stepped to the side and out of
the way until called upon. In as much as he missed being on the bridge of a
ship, as a Marine, he had no business on the bridge unless summoned. On the
Raptor, he did show himself to be knowledgeable and helpful on the bridge,
and he enjoyed it.
