77.) Honor*
"No one besmirches the honor of my crew or my ship. You sir, have done both. Uhura, please contact Cupcake so he can escort our guess down to Bones. The good doctor needs to document his mental state before he is confined to his quarters."
"Yes Captain."
While Uhura quietly made the necessary calls, Jim watched as the counselor turned a bright red. Cupcake had just stepped onto the bridge when he lost it.
"You arrogant bastard, you don't deserve to sit in that chair. When I am done with my report, you will be stripped of your position and your entire crew will be facing charges!"
Ignoring the insults shouted at him as Cupcake escorted the man from the bridge, Jim knew he would be facing a major dressing down. he didn't care though, no one questioned the integrity of his crew or his ship. He was free game, but they were off limits.
The man had the audacity to ask half his crew if they had got their position by sleeping with him, and the other half if they bribed him. Jim could have done a lot worse to him.
