USS Peregrine, Bridge - 12:30
Haemis followed Tochi from the lift onto the bridge, he had taken but a moment to try and compose himself before stepping onto the bridge. His anxiety was still apparent but he seemed to take things in stride showing a bit of relief. "I..." he swallowed his words. "I appreciate what your say'n an I know I've got to make me own way here." he blinked looking off for a moment as they approached the Captain's Ready Room door. "That ship..." he looked back down to the floor as if searching for the words. "Twas a bit of a nightmare." he said quietly. "An ye start to believe'n things, because ye are given no other choice." he stared at the door, it was like staring into the den of a dragon, and he felt like a knight with no armor. Let alone a reflective shield of any kind. He nodded, watching Tochi hit the ringer on the Captains Ready room door.
He heard the Captain signal them to come in, the beating of his own heart between his ears was growing louder. He could even feel it as they entered the room. He began to sweat again, his palms slick. His hands were shaking but he came to attention all the same, and waited for fire.
He didn't dare meet the mans eyes, he wasn't too sure what he would find. Haemis hadn't been this scared of a person since his survival stint at the Academy. He slipped as Tochi and the Captain conversed and did for but a brief moment meet the Captain's eyes but he immediately went right back to staring straight ahead at the wall.
((OOC: Sorry for my short absence, I got tied up with a couple of things for the last week. But I'm back. ))

Stardate 2365.02.08
USS Peregrine; Turbolift - 1227
Haemis followed along dutifully if not reluctantly knowing he needed to make a good impression but his feelings on meeting the Captain were certainly a variable storm of emotions. The XO's logic was certainly sounds even though he didn't like it. He let out a sigh as the two stepped into the turbolift. "Aye," he said shifting uneasy. "Your certainly right, just a bit o..." he stopped pondering the right words. "Nervous. Scared..." he said under his breath.
He shifted uneasy as the lift began to move. "I've heard a lot of stories..." he started but stopped considering his words. "Do ye feel yer Capt'n a fair man?" he asked looking up for some sign of reassurance.
((A place to respond if you like..))
"Capt'n Jacobs the Almighty," he said, there was certainly no love in his voice. "We dinna exactly part on the best O' terms." he looked up as the lift began to slow. His hear beat faster as his anxiety grew. "See'n as yer's is Pals with Jacobs, this might be a very short term of service..." he said, the disappointment in his voice was obvious, and his body language spoke volumes.

Subject: A dreaded introduction...
Stardate 2365.02.08
USS Peregrine, Main Engineering - 1224
"I wish we could, " Zai responded evenly, "but unfortunately yes,. It is, and who might you be Lieutenant?"
Haemis's frown deepened, "Ah, Lieutenant Haemis McTavish, Engineering officer. Formerly of the Coronado, I was her assistant chief engineering," he glanced back down at the ships stricken chief engineer. He listened intently as Lt. Zai provided an introduction nodding to the Doctor.
He suddenly had that deer in the Headlights look on his face when he mentioned that he might be the ships new chief engineer. "Chief," he said letting his voice trail off nodding as the Executive officer addressed the doctor. Just the prospect of that job he thought was beyond his reach after what had just happened. But this was certainly an unexpected twist to the day. He was snapped out of his thought process as the Executive officer addressed him again.
"Walk with me, Lieutenant." The man suggested gesturing to the door he had come. "We're sure that Captain Drake will be interested to meet you."
Haemis hesitated a moment but turned and followed the Executive officer out of Engineering. "Are ye sure that's necessary," he paused a moment his mind racing trying to find an excuse to avoid a meeting he was not ready for. Not yet. He just got what might be the greatest news of the day, or was it, "There's lots of prep work to be done before we get under way, not to mention a we spot of damage to be repaired now,are, are you sure it canna wait a wee longer?" he asked as they walked down the hallway. He was starting to sweat and a nervousness crept into his voice.

Stardate 2365.02.08
USS Peregrine, Engineering - 1223
Haemis continued down the corridor looking at various doors listing off the different rooms on the Engineering deck. He knew he was in the right place but not having been on a ship of this class and no prior chance to get familiar with the vessel he continued on his present course. The color in his cheeks returned to normal by now he was a bit more at ease.
He turned and walked through the doors to Main Engineering and slowed as he entered the room. Partly taking in the sights of the ships engine which always put a smile on his face, which very quickly turned into a frown as he spotted the medical team, and damage.
"Bloody ell," he stated flatly and under his breath. He took a few steps forward coming to stand next to one of the officers who was talking with one of the engineers.
"This day gets better and bloody better every turn," he glanced from Zai to Toporov then back down at the stricken officer noting his rank. "Please tell me that's not the chief engineer," he said with a mournful tone.

Subject: Forced Transfer
Stardate: 2365.02.08
USS Peregrine, Docking Gangway - 1225
Haemis had a determined stride when he walked up to the two men at the Peregrine's docking gantry, he stopped as one of them moved to block his way gesturing to the security check in. "Ach! They dinna tell ye I was comin?" he asked with a scowl.
"Everyone has to check in..." he peered around to see the mans collar. "lieutenant?" it was a question as much as a statement.
Haemis nodded. "They bloody forced me into this transfer, the least they could do was call ahead! Its McTavish!" he shook his head and gestured back to the Station Security guard who had been shadowing him. "Grigg's! Tell this man about my bloody transfer." his cheeks were a slight shade of pink as his annoyance levels were rising. He begrudgingly placed his hand on the pedestal which began scanning his palm. He knew the scanner did more than just scan, it was a subtle DNA test as well to confirm his identity.
When the device indicated that he was not authorized Haemis's frown deepened as did his cheeks color. "Bah!" he said taking his hand away.
The Stations security guard moved closer to the group. "Yes, he literally just got his transfer papers." he said flatly looking back at the turbolift knowing that the padd was all over the floor of the turbolift in pieces. "You'll have to contact the station commander likely for confirmation."
The man turned without hesitation and hit his comm badge. "Officer Lister to Operations!"
"Operations here, what can we help you with today Officer Lister?" a woman's voice called from the badge.
"I've got an officer here who says he just got transfer orders to the Peregrine, can you please confirm this?"
"Standby Officer." the voice said and then the channel closed with a beep.
Haemis let out a low growl. "I donno if you wanna explain to the Peregrines all mighty Captain why he warped away without one of his engineering officers today, ye realize that this ship has a wee bit of a premium on crew. Of course on one of those larger beasties it wouldna be so much of an inconvenience but for this ship." his accent was starting to get thicker the angrier he got. "So if in ya don't let me aboard I'll miss me ride and you'll have to account for get'n me to her after the bloody fact, I donna think ye want tha! Now why not be a good lad and let me aboard, if yer boss doesn't confirm it ye can bloody come get me!" he glared at the man.
"Fine, go aboard." the man nodded. "Hand on the panel again so I can at least check you in as a guest for now." he pointed to the pad.
Haemis did as he was asked placing his hand back on the device which promptly went green and indicated he was an authorized crew member. He smiled and pushed past the two guards heading down the gantry way into what might very well be his last posting in Starfleet.
"Ops to Lister, if your speaking with Lieutenant McTavish then yes, he's authorized." the woman's voice called over the now open comm channel again.
"Thanks Lister out!" he said hitting his comm badge watching the Lieutenant walk down the hall now shaking his head.
Haemis walked through the doors at the end of the gangway from the station and stopped. He had not yet been told where his berthing was on board yet, he turned and started walking down the corridor towards where the turbolift should be. Finding himself standing there at the turbolift trying to decide what to do first. Normally he might go check in with the ships Chief Engineer but he wasn't sure what the ships protocol was since he had all but destroyed his welcome packet back on the station. He cursed softly to himself and stepped into the lift. "Main Engineering!" he called moving to the back of the small lift. he leaned against the back of the lift.
He hadn't really put much thought into the ruling of the JAG officer until now, he was so angry. Now having his duty station assigned to him that feeling of betrayal and anger was starting to solidify in his brain. He absolutely hated Captain Jacobs. With every fiber of hid being. He was close to the chief engineer on the Coronado and now he had also betrayed him to save his own hide most likely and Haemis hated him for it. He could feel his fists were clenched hard, he took a deep breath as the lift came to a stop on his desired deck. It was a very short ride. He stepped off the lift and started down the hall towards engineering.
