It is the season of the Winter Fete. Typically, this means that no few members of NRSD Reprisal's crew are on leave or off duty. However, this being a ship of war, there must always be those on duty, ready to respond instantly when duty calls. On this particular standard day, that happens to include one Kesander Beysarus. Standing in the fighter bay with a cup of steaming caff in his hand, the 1st Lieutenant is chatting with a shuttle pilot. Both men are clad in flight gear. "Yeah, so then I said, 'look, you keep the Nerf and I'll just be on my way'." At this, the two men laugh loudly as though the punch-line of a joke has been delivered. And indeed it has.
