Belter Born? Different Universe going to guess. That happens around here. Your using some words I can understand though. Warship's not a new term for me at all. I'm Lieutenant Commander Adeleis Shepard, Spectre and well, a bunch of titles that don't amount to much here. Career Military. In it to do good, not tell people what to do, and never a big fan of the word impossible. So Engineering or XO, it sounds like you've at least got the kind of experience I'd be ideally looking for.
The Normandy's...well. Where I'm from she's something else. She's certainly got a lot more going on than it looks like but, from the sounds of it, you're just the kind of person I'd need for the job. We'll set up that walk through after the card game tonight and see how it goes?
