=/\= What do you mean, ‘You don’t know’? You tell me there is a Diplomatic Advisor coming on board and that I’ll get their file when they arrive, but you can’t even tell me who ‘they’ are? This is not irregular; its ridiculous. =/\=

=/\= Captain, I assure you this is all above board. It is simply a last minute assignment and the bureaucratic documentation has yet to catch up, is all. =/\=

=/\= Right. Once again, logistics seems to fail on the other side of the wormhole. =/\=

=/\= I understand the frustration, Captain. They will arrive within the hour. =/\=

=/\= Well, I hope ‘they’ don’t expect much in the way of a reception. =/\= and Cochrane shut the comms off.

Alex glared at the blank screen and then tapped the comms. =/\= Mr. Creed, Mrs. McKenzie. Meet me 8n Shuttlebay Two. Mrs. McKenzie, your new advisor is arriving. =/\=

Alex stood and walked briskly out of the ready room.

Cochrane, CO

Sitting in her office pouring over more reports Revna looked up. Advisor? What advisor? S’Tek didn’t say anything about…and she sighed. It didn’t matter who said or didn’t say. She stood up pulling on the floor length vest with the diplomatic corp emblems, downed the last of her ice water and tapped her combadge. =/\=Acknowledged Captain. I hope they realize this is short notice for an official welcome.=/\= She left her office turned for the turbolift, “Deck 20” and off the lift sped. Getting off she heading aft and entered the shuttle bay and walked over to the captain. “Cpt. Cochrane, Cmdr Creed,” she said by way of greeting.

McKenzie, DA

He’d dealt with the crew of the Manhattan before, Luke had even loved them and he respected Alex more than he’d have let on but his new job meant he was meant to butt heads. He was meant to look at the bigger picture not just the safety of the ship which was odd when he came under the diplomatic corp but that’s where the Federation Security came in, he was as influential as a captain but as important as a janitor. His decision could be ignored or acted on, either way, he’d voice his opinion for the greater good. Stepping off the shuttle ramps was the oddest situation ever, “Captain, Mrs McKenzie, Et all” He bowed his head in respect, “I expect questions so I’m willing to answer them, but I have one. Where is Faye.” He’d thought of a million things to say but there was one burning question, how was Faye. There was nothing he could do to forget her, maybe the harsh reality of her forgetting him might help. But the one thing he wanted to do was apologise.
