Characters: Delita Heiral and the Navigational Crew/Quartermasters
Content: Delita calls a meeting for his new co-workers to see who's the greatest threat get to know them
Setting: Meeting room, Victoria II
Time: About an hour after the promotion announcement
Warnings: Plotting, ass-kissing, fops
Delita considered himself to be a practical man if nothing else. Once one got past such things as moral concerns and personal ties, you started to see things in a wonderful, clear light. There was no point floundering around like any other new crewman. He meant to get to business. And that business was two-fold: Get in comfortable with the crew. And begin setting the first threads of his web.
This meeting could cover both of these needs very nicely.
The new Quartermaster stood near the head of the meeting table, and slightly off to one side (so no one would subconsciously think he was trying to play leader, that wouldn't do at all), his arms behind his back. He didn't pace or fidget... just stood and pondered his upcoming words. At good start would save a lot of problems later. But for now he just had to wait.
