Cara nodded to Harkness with a smile as she watched him leave. It made her a little sad when she realized Harkness was grieving, it was obvious the way he said Miranda’s name. She didn’t comment on it now though, she was sure on his first day on his new ship the last thing he wanted to do was talk about lost loved ones. Before she could turn to go back to her remidal daily tasks she spoted Commander Stark next to Harkness. She eyed them cautiously since Harkness looked too tense for her tastes. She walked over to them slowly.
“Is everything alright gentlemen,” Cara asked reminding them subtly they were in sickbay and to take any arguements elsewhere.

Stark’s eyes were locked with the Chief and he didn’t swivel or turn when he replied to Cara. “Everything /will/ be fine Cara” he said in a very quiet voice. “As you know it’s part of my job to make sure that there are no hidden dangers aboard the Athena, or perhaps no lightning rod that could attract hidden dangers.” His voice altered slightly as his eyes continued to bore into the Chief’s “However being as I’m something of a lightning rod myself and cannot expect others to be otherwise, I seek only allies… not enemies”. It was obvious he was fishing for something.

Stark Nightstalker CIO

Horace did not flinch from the stare, it ws rare to wind someone with the willpower to match the CIO. Horace spoke quietly as well but it was still cordial, the tension drained and the eyes calmed. Cara’s approach had helped, he did not want to fight in front of the girl. Horace knew this one would have been bloody. “I am not a lightning rod, I am the clean up crew, I am thier to put out the fires and recover the bodies from the twisted smoldering steel after lightning has struck. I am aware of your job, and your reputation Commander Nightstalker. We are not enemies, allies might be the hardest road you ever travelled.” Horace stated flatly.

MCPO Horace Harkness

Cara got the feeling there was more being said than she knew but at least it didn’t look like Harkness we as going to comes to blows with star. At least not yet.
“Yes that’s right we’re all allies on this ship. It’s not always an easy road but it’s worth it. Isn’t that what you taught me sir,” Cara said to Commander Stark her grldark green eyes thoughtful.
