Commander Ethan Duval was wearing the command bravo variant of the uniform from the reality of his birth, it was a pair of pants, boots and a belt with a tank top which showcased his arms and shoulders, along with the dark tribal tattoos he normally didn't showcase, he also wore two kukris's on his back. He had a phaser sidearm on his belt and he wore gloves, in all he looked like a real bruiser and out to make trouble for anyone who crossed him, only one part of him didn't look the part and that was the rather wide grin on his lips.

He regarded the smaller and younger woman before him, she was wearing the normal medical uniform which covered everything and was designed to make her look as unappealing as possible. Lieutenant JG Riley Sutton nodded as she looked up at the massive man before her. "I have several cases of people who are feeling afraid to go out in public with the new uniform. They feel it exposes too much or showcases vulnerabilities."

"That's perfectly understandable," Duval answered evenly. "Our job is to make it look like we captured this ship from this reality and we came home," he added. "If we do this right, nobody will be any the wiser," Duval added. "Are you having any issues with the mission at hand?"

"Granted its one of the more odd missions I've ever done but... No sir, I will be fine." Sutton explained. "I replicated three of the uniform variants... This is the duty medical one, the counsellors one looks like something I'd expect from a cheap porn movie and the last is similar to what the skipper is wearing, except with fishnets." she shook her head. "What a world you came from..."

"Look at it like this Riley, the rent is cheap, the pay is decent and I get to make my hours." as Duval grinned at the smaller woman. "Or, the pay is decent, the scenery changes and you get to use explosives," he added. "Also, you'll get to use the uniforms for Halloween parties for the next ten years."

"There is that," Sutton answered. "It'll be okay sir.," and with that, the two separated as Duval moved off down the hallway, his next stop was Engineering as he passed another female officer a moment later. "Commander, you got a moment?" Lieutenant Kaylen Chegwidden inquired of him, she had removed much of her normally long blonde her, she had gotten a pixie haircut, which added to her looks, she was wearing a pair of knee-high boots, the fishnets, a short skirt, and a crop top. "Sir, I feel I'm honestly about to star in a porn film, do women in your reality dress like this?" as she regarded Duval. "Tell me this is all a bad dream.?"

"Oh yes. Sometimes they wear leather for some guy to take a liking to her." Duval nodded his head. "It's sad really... and no El-Tee. This is not a game or a dream." he sighed. "I am sorry for all of this."

"At least I'm not doing it alone..." Chegwidden added as she sighed. "When we come back, I'll be able to wear my normal uniform and feel like I'm getting dressed for work and not because I want to have sex."

"Fiar enough Lieutenant. I do not blame you for feeling that way." Duval answered. "Though if it helps, it looks good on you."

"I'm sorry sir, I don't feel able to handle too many compliments on my looks at present," Chegwidden answered in a quiet tone of voice, as she looked up at him.

"I understand," Duval answered with a nod before the two parted company. Duval moved down the hallway and into a turbolift where he found another member of the senior staff, this one was wearing the full leather getup. "Hello, El-Tee." Duval addressed her.

"Commander. I think I might wear this uniform going forward." Lieutenant Jasmine Tarkington explained. "It's helped me with my confidence issue."
she was wearing a pair of knee-high boots, a leather skirt with fishnets and a slinky tank top which revealed a lot of skin, she also had an agonizer on her belt next to her phaser and blade.

"That's good to know El-Tee." Duval regarded her with a smile. "Bridge?" he asked of her.

"Yessir. I am to report in, to the Captain." Tarkington explained, she looked and felt at ease with only sixty percent of her body encased in black leather.

"Very well, computer resume." Duval heard the computer beep at him before the turbolift started moving, the doors opened a moment later before Tarkington stepped off onto the bridge, she gave him a look of a rather sultry smile, while Duval remained motionless. "Computer new destination. Sickbay." the doors closed as the turbolift started into motion again, eventually arriving at his destination.
