Daggum was silent a moment and then looked at Faye. “I think if we can handle this situation right, we may have our own intelligence network.” and he laughed.

Daggum

Faye snorted. “Wouldn’t that be something. Here’s the woman who’s been Intelligence’s worst nightmare at times, and then she goes and uses everything she’s learned for her own devices.” She pointed her index finger towards the ceiling. “Actually, that sounds about right. What is this galaxy coming to?”

~Faye

Daggum grinned and said “Hey, I can think of worse things than being married to the sexiest spy-master in the galaxy.” and he chuckled. “Holy crap… do you know how many people would lose their minds if we did that? It would be almost worth doing just to watch them squirm.” and he laughed loudly.

Daggum

Faye leaned back in the chair and folded her arms behind her head, crossing her legs at the knee. “I know soooo many people. And so do you! But I’m still a member of Tortuga!,” she said, breaking into a wild laugh. She hadn’t told him all her stories about Tortuga Station, but she told him about how a suave captain saved her from a tight spot on said base and him and their crew took her in under yet another alias before she finally committed to being Faye Calloway again and working to apply to Starfleet Academy.

“What’s the best part is that they’d never see it coming, either. It’s a funny thought. For after my captaining days, of course,” Faye said, her eyes alit. But he knew her too well not to know his idle comments had spurred not just a few pathways but a cascade of thoughts all branching and taking interesting directions she wouldn’t have assumed.

~Faye

He smiled knowingly- and a little conspiratorially- and bent low in front of her and half-whispered “Your Intel training. My logistics. Our combined contacts and favors owed to us. Hell, even our family.” His emerald eyes sparkled with a wicked gleam. “We could give the Syndicate a real run for their money, I bet.” and he shrugged slightly. “I mean… imagine the good an organization like that could do…”

Daggum

Faye’s thoughts went immediately to her parents and their ill-begotten mission she only knew the barest gist of. It was enough to extrapolate and they had to know that Faye would have filled in the gaps, especially once the arrest warrants went out, and the list of dead posted. Most days she was trying to not think about it, ut there were moments like this one where her heart ached so badly she wasn’t sure what to do about it. Maybe they’d come back alive, maybe not, but Faye had to hope their efforts wouldn’t be in vain.

She lifted her gaze to Daggum, her stormy grey-green eyes holding an infrequent darkness to them. Well, less frequent these days, especially since Dag came into her life. “The Orion Syndicate, the Shadow Syndicate. Name one, name them all. We could quash them like the cowardly bugs they are.”

~Faye

Daggum.leaned back and looked at her a moment, his head cooking to the side as he thought. “Or… and this is just a thought… we could do to them what the Shadow group did to Intel- except better- and start using them to do good in places and ways that the Fleet and the Federation can’t.” and then he looked straight at her.

“Or *won’t.”

They both knew that for all the good the two groups did, and it was a lot of good, both had a very dark side. And if anyone found themselves on that side… the prices paid were unconscionable.
