Basically. My title was "Tactical Officer", but that's a little misleading. It mostly consisted of plotting courses and FTL jumps. With some tactical planning and a lot of monitoring some pretty old computer systems thrown in.

[Galactica may have been saved by have non-networked, 50 year old computer systems, but being the one who basically needed to take care of them was a chore.

Also, friend, do not worry, there is so much mystery that you do not know.]

[Felix. Felix. He never, ever knew you were this cool.

Eugene is not even a big sci-fi guy, but come on! Spaceflight? What he can only assume from that abbreviation is faster than light travel?]

That is awesome. And- yeah, really, really impressive. [He's back to looking at the notes with a whole new appreciation, gently reaching out to turn one to read the writing better, laughing under his breath.] Seriously, I feel like a dog looking at a jet engine right about now.

[It's hard not to be deeply flattered by that kind of reaction. He's gotten it from a handful of people, but not nearly enough to be used to it.

It means that he has to fight down a full-on grin, managing just to look a little pleased and amused.]

Thanks. If you're interested in having any of it explained, I could probably give you a preview of the lecture.

...Actually, I could probably use the practice. I haven't given a presentation like this since college.

Whenever you've got your lecture together, I'd love to hear it. [He gives a self-effacing little smirk, looking back at Felix when the full scan of his notes reveals absolutely nothing else he can make heads or tails of.] The world I'm from never managed manned space flight further than our moon, so you can definitely count on me to ask a lot of really dumb novice questions.

"Novice" and "dumb" aren't the same things.

[Give yourself a little credit, Eugene. His tone isn't overly serious, though. He trusts him not to be actually that self-critical. Also, it's not exactly the most damning criticism anyway.]

I'll let you know once I'm done.
