::has taken a tour of the damage, has seen everyone working on repairs::
::helps to go around and see everyone, whether in groups or singly where they work, motivate them, put the fear of their Emperor in them, help them work faster::
::is all in how you deal with your crew::
::So far, crew response has been good, rather ideal::
::warp should be back in 24 hours, have had impulse again for an hour and are very slowly en route back towards the Xindi leads::
::has no time to get much in the way of rest tonight, plans to spend some time in the Armoury making repairs to the cannons, almost completely destroyed by the NX, doesn't want to move far in space without them, needs all weapons functioning at the very least::
::considers..::
...
..
::yes, will assign Malcolm to repair work in Armoury tomorrow, got Jonathan's message, Malcolm can be trusted to keep the interests of the ship he's in at the top of his mind, he's a good officer, he'll know how to get these repairs finishes quicker::
::could do it by self, but has whole ship to take care of, not just one or two sections::
::leaving Charles with Engineering duties, and Malcolm with Armoury and tactical will take a weight off to concentrate on other areas by self::
::sighs as leans back in chair, wiping hands over face, digging into eyes::
urgh...
::takes deep breath.. keeps risking a lot agains the NX-01. Has won this time, with minimal cost, proves that despite Archer's reliance on outside help, can still kick his ass::
::laughs a little as leans forward::
::feels good right now, still with adrenalin pumping, still wants to kill Archer, knows will be one of the most satisfying kills of whole life, must do it personally, not between the distance of two ships blowing each other up.. no...::
::next time... face to face... no one tied down just the two of them in a battle of wits, battle of strength... may the better man win::
...
...
::knows is the better man...::
