"Looks familiar?" James asked, grabbing the pistol and showing it to the man. "I found it down on the planet as I was gathering supplies to make a shelter."

"Yes... It's an old Britannian Harken Pistol." He said. "Basically a weaponized grappling hook."

"...What? Britannian? That's, uh... a surprise. Haven't heard that in a long while", he pondered. "I wonder how it got here. Must have been one heck of a long while ago, or maybe some plant's chemicals did not agree with it all that much."

"I see... It's an old relic. The Britannian civilization collapsed 6 centuries ago."

"It belongs in a museum", he pondered. "Hopefully we can restore it to some measure of its former glory."

"Indeed. It's a valuable artifact."

"Alright. Well, thanks for the information. I'm looking forward to restoring it", he said with a nod. "At any rate... I'll see you tomorrow. Have a good day, Mr. Stephens", he said, before taking his leave unless the man had something else to say.

James walked up to his seat, taking a deep breath. "Dr. Emmerich, I have an old, damaged piece I would like to try my hand at restoring once my shift is over", he said, showing him the weapon. "Would you please be so kind as to prepare a set of tools and materials I could use to do so for me in Engineering later today?" he asked.

"Of course. I'll get right on it." He said.

"No hurries, doctor. My shift is not done yet", he said with a smile. "Thank you."
With that said, unless something significant happened, the next important step would be the next morning, so James just focused on his routine duties for the day and anything which was required to be brought to his attention, in addition to making up for his three senior officers' absence as best as he could. OOC: I'll have to come up with a set of other NPCs who act as their main right hand officers when their shifts end, lol.
7 in Intelligence and/or 8 in Statecraft as needed to perform my duties for the rest of the day.

James quickly made sure the next shift's command officer had everything he needed to know for his own duties, before wishing everyone a good evening and heading over to Engineering. 1 in Speed to fast walk to the nearest available turbolift and to head down into Engineering to try and restore the Britannian pistol.

James checked for the tools Otacon was supposed to have left for him, and began working on restoring the pistol. 15 in Technology to try and restore the piece, if possible to a working condition, or failing that get it to look as good as possible despite its broken state.
