OOC Note: This side-story occurs a short time after the conclusion of YSS Yukika II — Season 1, Episode 0: Pilot (Welcome Aboard), which took place in YE 46.2.
The Executive Officer's berth was located on the starboard side of the main deck of the YSS Yukika II, on the right-hand side as one approached Engineering's starboard door on that deck. Next to his office, opposite the large Engineering space, was a cargo room, and across the hallway lay the Captain's Quarters and the computer room which also served as the 'quarters' for Taii Yukika Futaba, the MEGAMI AI Avatar.
At the moment, the XO's door was open. The door led to a small office room with only one occupant; First Officer Karasu Ryuu. Though he was not on Bridge duty at this time, Ryuu spent quite a few hours at his desk where crew could come to him to deliver reports or discuss concerns. Many of these meetings were actually scheduled, but drop-ins were possible when a person needed to talk something out. In between such meetings he filled out personnel evaluations, reviewed data submitted by the Avatar, or simply sat down and read.
His office was decidedly spartan. Behind his desk, on the wall, was an Ensign of the Star Army of Yamatai; the Hinomaru within a 'sunburst' of white and red stripes. Elsewhere, and lower on the wall than the flag, hung an emblem of Clan Karasu; a stylized raven in flight, on a white field. Elsewhere, a photograph of a recently-tilled farm on an unknown planet, the rank insignia of a Nitô Hei in a glass case, a well-used whetstone and related sharpening tools, an oblong rock that appears to be an unremarkable and common stone, and... A small selection of looseleaf teas and a portable water heater.
Karasu Ryuu himself was in uniform, his Karasu clan pin joining the other various symbols allowed to him; his rank insignia, the Yukika II patch, and so on. His Type 42 uniform bore the white color of leadership, and his officer's cap lay on the desk next to the integrated computer. He was sitting at rest, one leg practically hurled over the other, his form leaned heavily into the back of the chair, almost as though he wanted to physically distance himself from whatever he was reading. Ryuu's expression wasn't troubled, however. A hand propped up his face, a finger paralleling the line formed by his 'circle beard'. Whatever he was reading, it was something he would be more than willing to set aside in case someone stopped by, or his next appointment arrived early!

If someone is very familiar with Jiyuu III, there are clues in the photograph of the tilled farm that Jiyuu III is its depicted location.
