Case 00599: Captain Rex
“Rex,” the captain answered without preamble. He sounded thoroughly miserable, voice thick and intonation slurred.
“Captain, Kix here. I need you to come down and sign the wounded files.”
“Already?” Rex asked, sounding somewhere between weary and impressed. “You’re never fast when it comes to paperwork.”
“True, so hurry over before the next crisis walks in.”
“No, I sent Hardcase to scrub the mess,” the captain joked with a pained laugh.
“I’ll see you soon?” Kix pressed.
“On my way now, Kix.”
When Kix ended the transmission, he found Commander Tano watching him. “You haven’t even started your paperwork, have you?”
“No,” he said, unrepentantly. “But he wouldn’t have come here otherwise. You should be sleeping.”
I just found this series and I'm LOVING it. Poor Kix needs more love 😍
