High Law and Low Justice, Part 4

Saanath:
[sblock] The midshipman confers with someone over a comlink, relaying Saanath's request. Saanath doesn't hear the other end of the conversation. In a few seconds, the midshipman answers. "Sorry, sir. I need to remove them from your presence for the time being. I have been authorized to tell you that no files will be accessed before your interview. Sorry, sir." [/sblock]

Saanath, male human merchant.

[sblock]Saanath shrugs.

"Thank you for asking anyway, Midshipman." Saanath finds that he means it too. The fact that Midshipman isn't shooting at Saanath makes him an allright kinda guy right now.

Saanath collects his "Oyster" hand computer and datapad (or are they the same thing). He hands them over to the Midshipman.

"Do you want the watch too. I can program in different times and rotational periods and annual orbits."

Should of had it modified as a datastorage device.

In other words, he complies with the midshipman's request. With one small oversight. The small crystal from Armand's datapad.[/sblock]
 

Saanath: [sblock]

"No, sir, You can keep the watch. Good day, sir." With that Saanath is left alone in the chamber, apparently an unused stateroom that Saanath would rate as about "middle passage" quality. He waits for what seem like about two hours, but in reality (and according to his watch) is more like 40 minutes. At that time, a slightly built human woman in her forties enters the room escorted by two midshipmen armed with stun rods. "Hello, Saanath, my name is Lieutenant Commander Ulana Green. I need to speak with you about what has gone on the past several days. Those who accompanied you from the Keruuchan to the Dvonn have been interviewed already or are being interviewed now, in some cases. If everyone is honest and cooperative, I'm sure this can all be taken care of quite quickly. So. Let me first begin by simply asking if there anything you would like to tell me that you think I might be interested in?"[/sblock]
 


[sblock]Ktarle follows commands docilely, and when asked to give blood and urine samples, tells the nurse that she would like to see the results. "It is an interesting substance, and I would like to compare my findings with your doctor's," she says, trying to look as nonthreatening as an Aslan can. "Perhaps we could have a meal together to discuss things." The loaned clothing fits slightly wrong and she feels ridiculous in it, but she tries to look like the noble and innocent rescuer she is supposed to be.

When the crew ask for her communication devices, her mind shuts down momentarily. In an attempt to put them off, she slumps against the bulkhead and shakes her head slightly. "I am sorry, gentlemen," she says (even if they are female). "It's been a long few days." She then rummages in her luggage and pulls out her personal handcomp. She looks at it for a moment and then hands it to the closest crew member reluctantly. "I'd like to have this back. It has some . . . personal logs on it that mean something to me." With that, she waits politely until they leave, and then prowls about her room, looking for communication bugs or any other survellaince equipment.[/sblock]

Are we sblocking things now? It's a good idea, but it's driving me crazy! :D
 


Ktarle:
[sblock] Searching the room, which appears to simply be an unused stateroom with four berths, Ktarle does not find any listening devices, though there are four locked footlockers that she is unable to open. After about ten minutes of waiting, a slightly built human woman in her forties enters the room. Ktarle hears other footsteps outside the room, but the door closes behind the woman before she can see who else might be there. "Hello Doctor, my name is Lieutenant Commander Ulana Green. I'm hoping we can speak candidly - there are a number of questions we have about what happened aboard the Dvonn, and before. Would you mind attempting to help us out? If you could begin by going over with us what you have learned about the contaminant, I would be very appreciative."

ooc: you can either type what Ktarle answers verbatim, or give it as a summary, by simply lettimg me know any intentional ommissions, half-truths, etc. [/sblock]
 

Ktarlewaweikye Os Tehlayew Olui, conspirator extraordinaire!

[sblock]Ktarle looks around the room one last time before giving up. I'm getting too paranoid, she thinks. This is ridiculous.

When the woman enters, she stands and offers her hand to shake as humans do. "My greetings to you. I will help you in whatever way I can." She tells the woman everything that can be found on the logs or handcomps. She leaves out any mention of any conspiracies and does not mention or look at the other handcomp, the one she took from the medbay, the one she's not sure why she took. She downplays the fact that the substance seemed to originate in the one stateroom. "Listen, Lieutenant Commander, I just want to learn what happened and how this came to be in a ship that was holding passengers. Many people died, and I want to know why."

Ugh. This was a shoddy post. I'm tired. Sorry.[/sblock]

ooc: not at all :)

The woman looks at Ktarle hard, as if looking for something in th Aslan's features. "That is precisely what we are trying to determine as well, Dr.Tehlayew Olui. Let us try something else. What did you, or any of those who accompanied you, know of what was happening on the Dvonn before you arrived?"
[/sblock]
 

[sblock]Ktarle laughs sharply. "What did we know? I can't speak for the others, but I knew nothing but that they needed aid." Her gaze cuts to the other. "Why? Is there something I should know?"[/sblock]
