<<Meanwhile in transporter room two>>

Raye stepped forward and bowed just a bit, hey head inclining in reference to his station. “I’m Vorraye Anders, Federation Diplomat. It’s a pleasure to meet you. The Captain’s waiting in his personal mess Hall to receive you. And we have refreshments, if you desire.”

She hadn’t bothered to offer to shake hands, it even give a warrior’s am great. She didn’t know much about those before her, but she knew they were find of females. She hoped to change that perspective, at least in regards to humans. And perhaps herself, in particular.

((Insert personal introductions here if anyone is in transporter room with me. Otherwise, on Fri night I’ll post responses and get us to the mess.... Meli))

Joral sneered visibly at her as she stepped forward, his retainers almost visibly spluttering. His voice dripped near rage “Does your Federation seek to insult us?! A female negotiator. I certainly hope there is more to this group than sniveling menials and women”

A tiny being dressed in a smooth robe stepped into the transporter room. A furred face with pointed ears on the top of their head instead of being on the side of her head like most beings. It was not obvious what gender this being was, as they had no obvious signs of gender. “Greetings,” the small being spoke with a voice that was like a low purr, still impossible to determine the gender unless one closely knew the species this individual was from. “I am Lt. Sathut, one of the Counselors aboard this vessel.”

Of course, it was all a lie, but they didn’t know that. Kaia smiled slightly at Anders, silently asking her not to give up the jig.

Kaia, Engineer

He visibly recoiled from this odd creature. Looking down upon her as one would a particularly loathsome insect, he seemed to be decided whether she was a pet or not “What is this… thing?…”

Kaia narrowed her eyes slightly. “I am a Starfleet officer, little worm,” the small alien spoke, the rumbling purr gone from her voice. “And I will not take any disrespect to myself or any of my fellow officers, regardless of what gender they may be and how your backwards traditions view that.” The voice was louder than it should have been coming from such a small being, and her raised left hand had some very sharp looking claws extended from the soft-looking fingertips.

A voice came from behind the group and said “Enough, please. We are here to discuss the future. Not hurl insults at potential allies and associates.” and Cochrane entered the room. He first looked at his own people, giving them a look that said ‘Take it back a notch.’ and then to the Kazon. “Joral. My name is Alexander Cochrane, Captain of this vessel. These are respected and trusted members of my crew. You culture may not take the same view of females in positions of authority, but I assure you we intend no disrespect. It is simply the fact that we do not judge a individuals worth on their gender. So in dealing with us, you will be dealing with females of many species. I suggest that you simply allow for that going forward, or this will be a very short meeting. I trust both of these women implicitly, and even though I am the Captain of this vessel, Ms. Anders speaks for our government. Now, if you will please be seated, we can have refreshments and then get down to our discussion. Or if you cannot put differences aside, then I will bid you good day and escort you off my ship. I would hate to see us lose out on a potentially mutually beneficial discussion, but those are the terms. So what do you wish to do, sir?”

Cochrane, CO
