Summary
“Lieutenant Commander Payne?” says Charles, uncertainly. Maybe he’s walked into the wrong room. Science is an odd department to place him with. They gave him his old Command colors back with his new uniform, even though Starfleet will never, ever place him in charge of a starship, but it made sense enough if he was on protection duty. This…is a bit less comprehensible.
“We don’t have to bother with the pleasantries. Just get to it.”
“Uh, Captain Gadling asked me to report to you. I’m your new…” Charles isn’t sure what phrase to fill in there. Babysitting project? Bodyguard? Both?
*
Charles is fresh out of a Federation prison, aboard a newly commissioned starship with one of the strangest crews he's ever seen - and that's saying a lot, by Starfleet standards.

Summary
“Are you certain these tunnels lead back to the base?” Edwin asks, for the third time. “My sensors cannot detect any signs of—”
“Lifeforms in the immediate vicinity, I know, I know,” Charles says, and picks the left tunnel on a whim. Edwin follows him, leaving behind the carvings with a sigh. “But Niko said they’ve gotta have a way of getting between the base and the shipyard, ‘cause she can’t detect any emissions on the surface. Tunnels seem like the obvious answer, don’t they?”
“I suppose,” Edwin says. “I do retain the right to say ‘I told you so’ when we get lost and fall into an abyss, just so you’re aware.”
Charles and Edwin on a classic away mission-gone-wrong.
