(21:32:40) VAdmBlackthorne: XO: Ultimately, what it comes down to though, is your utter devotion to this ship. I, of course, know why you stay here, that is obvious, but that does not necessarily mean your career must suffer, if I have any say in it.

(21:37:17) Captain_Griffiths: @::shrugs as he sets his drink down:: LO: You were the last to arrive - everyone is here, although the Holodecks only came back online this morning so I imagine they're either relaxing or training.

(21:38:55) SCI_LtJG_TLira: :: looks up at the turbolift and sees Kuari and a Denobulan :: SEC: Lieutenant.

(21:38:58) Captain_Griffiths: @::winces, sucking a breath through his teeth:: FCS: Yeah, that'll do it. I'm glad I have a linguist onboard, we have a few close run-ins when we were scouting the Tzenkethi line a few months back.
(21:39:15) XO_Cdr_TKirr: :: relaxes somewhat, finding the new title...strange, not that she's used to calling Blackthorne by the title ::
