General Sim Postings
Location: DCAGs Office
Paul had finished his meeting with the fleet Captain and walked along the corridor back to the office that he had taken up although there were no fighters on this ship, he still had a job to do, he tapped his combadge and called =/\= Would Lieutenant LeFebvre, please report to My office, Winchester Out=/\= as he found the turbolift and entered it.
Maggie had gotten the summons to the CAG office. Crap, she was in trouble. She wasn't sure what she'd done yet, but surely something, somewhere, had ruffled feathers. It's what she did-though she never INTENDED to. Usually. She pulled herself out of the Hangars and made her way to the DCAG's office. She rang the chime, and looked down, zipping up her flight suit all the way. No need to make things worse. "Sir, Lt. LeFebvre, reporting as requested," she said, waiting to be allowed in. She might be feckless and a bit flighty, but she was polite and respectful, too.
"At Ease, Lieutenant" replied Paul as he waved her to a seat, he continued " It has been brought to our attention that your skills as a pilot are above the grade for a shuttle Pilot." as he looked back at her, he Stated "Both Lieutenant Donavan myself and the Captain think you are ready for the next phase of your Carrer " as he gave her a chance to take it all in.
Maggie sat down, and settled in, but sat up, making sure she appeared as professional as possible. She made sure to listen carefully. After Paul was finished, she smiled.
"Wow?!" She said. "Thank you! I would appreciate that!" She said. Now it was time to be a big girl, she guessed. "What...exactly does it mean?" She asked. More paperwork, probably. Oh no. "But I...someone thinks I am a good pilot?" She asked. She didn't always have the best view of her skills. She knew she was a passionate pilot, but not necessarily a GOOD one, so to hear it from her boss was nice. "I'll do my best to perform well..."
She was babbling.
" you are being sent to flight school for Fighters" Paul responded as he smiled "To learn how to fly a Grayphon Fighter or a single fighter," he finished" Are you up for the Challenge, Lieutenant?" he asked.
She'd finally shut up.
She nodded. "Yes, sir," she said. "Thank you," she said. "I am up for the challenge. But...if I can...why me?" She asked. She was, frankly, kind of a fuck up most of the time, and while she liked her job, per se, she wasn't much into the business of being an officer. She existed, flew her little shuttle, and while she mostly kept out of trouble, she occasionally got caught up in craziness if she drank too much.
" Good, meet me and the CAG in the holodeck with the other trainees and we will put you through your paces," he stated knowing that at least she was interested in the job, he finished. "Good Luck as we are not going to make this easy on you,"
Maggie nodded enthusiastically. "Thank you sir," she said. "I will see you there in a minute!" She said. It would take her just a moment to walk down there. Yes!! This was good.
