Mind you, there might be a junior lt. who might be very unhappy with the ship's accountant if he finds out his own booty just got transferred back into the ship's general fund...
But ... yeah, we haven't seen anyone deal in cash or these tracked funds at all yet. Is everything Genique is looking at actually anything but made-up numbers? Can crew members request cash when they're in port, or do they bring goods to barter then, too? Buying oneself out is likely to eat a huge chunk of one's nominal money, but if there's extra can they take it in cash? Goods? Haha good luck with that?
The trouble here is knowing the ship's politics and relationships. That upset junior may well have the ear of a more senior officer who in turn could make Genique's life much more difficult. Or, in a form that would probably be less bad for Genique, the senior could use that as an object lesson in how to get better at embezzling and covering up. (Mind, this may end with Genique giving embezzlement lessons to the senior officers...)
