Kastarak had called the captain, Symar, Dawson and Valharra to the conference room close to the Bridge. Today’s meeting was a planning meeting to discuss tactical issues relating to being in Klingon space, as well as preparing for the possibility of taking on injured Klingons to Sickbay, as well as how to deal with potential hand-on-hand combat with Klingons.

Kastarak waited for the invitees to enter the room. He particularly looked forward to understanding more about this elusive species.

Dawson felt better than he had in weeks. Finally, something he was sure on. He felt that he was finally standing on solid ground after months at sea. When Kastarak had called the meeting and given its intention, Dawson immediately got to work, collecting what he could of Klingon tactics and culture, which was regrettably sparse. But it was enough. He had first-hand accounts of Klingon battles that detailed how they fought and their attitudes in combat, as well as some first-hand mele accounts of fights with Bat’leths, including a treatise on bat’leth fighting synthesized by an Earth martial artist and historian. Yes, Dawson felt very secure in this meeting.

He arrived at the conference room, PaDD in hand, and chimed the door.

As the doors opened, Kastarak invited Dawson in. “Good morning, Mr Dawson. How did you sleep?”

“Just fine, sir,” Dawson said flashing a quick smile to Kastarak, “Once the others arrive, I think I’ll be ready to give my presentation on Klingon battle tactics. Wish we knew more of them, to be honest. A lot of the records are plagued with bias from the war, but when you sift through the vitriol, an interesting martial culture begins to emerge.”

“I look forward to that,” said Kastarak, while inviting Dawson to sit. “Your knowledge and experience are useful for us to learn from. Yes, once the others are here and I’ve started the meeting, then the next item will be your presentation.”

Chris came in with an unruly mane of black hair and his uniform was disheveled somewhat and a bruise starting to form over his one good eye. He had bruises starting to form on the knuckles of his real hand and he took a napkin from the coffee cart and dotted his nose with it cleaning it out. Before he was able to crumple it up if anyone was noticing they would’ve seen blood there. He poured himself a cup, then another one for Dawson and then made a tea with the hot water for Kastarak. Turning to place the cups before the two men here then retrieved his cup and sat down. “Sorry I’m late gentlemen. I had to take out the trash.” He smirked at that. “But the refitting is going well.”

Dawson saw Taggart walk in and gave him a wry smile. “We certainly can’t have trash aboard.” Dawson said sipping his coffee, “We run clean ship. Unmentionables should be properly removed.” HE thought of the double meaning of Unmentionables fitting both undergarments and secret individuals, and both looked on with disfavor.
“I do hope the trash didn’t cause you too much trouble, sir.” He said to Taggart, “I’d have gladly sent a security team to assist if I had known we were going to be dumping today.”

Chris smiled and laughed a bit then winched in a little pain from his jaw. “Well. I didn’t know anything needed to be removed until I was walking into engineering and saw him manhandle NE Williams. I must admit that I lost my cool in from the crew there and unfortunately it came to fist ta cuffs. In the end though I removed the threat and ordered security to not allow him on board unless I say so no matter what he says or shows them. I also made sure NE Williams was taken care and gave him the rest of the day off. There’s plenty of beings there to complete the job. So what did I miss so far?”
