Ruzz'koff "What of the others who were at dinner? How many others know what we know? It only takes one person to go off at half coock and things become much more difficult for us to do anything. I'm not sure what would happen to anyone with a copy of that recording, but their life would become interesting and possibly unpleasent."
"At the least they will have to do something about Vyrkris who doesn't seem inclined to shut the hell up and toe the line. Good for her, but if the worst we suspect is true, they can't let her say anything to anybody. Acts Bratty on Bridge, Would have Ruined chances at Council, Commits Suicide whilst confined to quarters."
He fixes the two of them with sudden urgency, "We need to ensure no one does anything stupid and that no one gets to Vyrkris."

"We need to make sure Vyrkris is at the very least watched and accounted for at all times" Tomas offers continuing the conversation in Vargr
"as for the others - they all saw the recording so we need to get to them and make it clear that nothing happens until it needs to happen.

I'm sure Eduardo can stay quiet" he muses and looks up as Zaedhrarrg walks back into the dining room

"Ruzz'koff - can you deal with that Vargr? He's made himself a target by sticking his nose in when they escorted Vyrkris out, he's a Scout so he may be able to help if he can control his temper"
 

"Big if. I followed him out to try to stop him doing something dumb, so he decides to go have a go at the Captain. I'm suprised she didn't have him confined to quarters himself."

As Zaedhrarrg walks through the restauant back to the Captain's Dining Room, he barely notes Ruzz'koff and Quinn hunched over a portacomp off in a corner. He enters the dining room with a grinn on his face and notes everyone present staring at a personal communicator placed squarely in front of Saanath, who is sitting in the captain's chair. He hears the human say softly: "That, my friend, is indeed the question."

Anaarsi looks at the others in the room and says, "So, uh, I think it's time to adjourn. Maybe I'll go see how Eduardo is doing in the casino." He gets up to leave.

* Well, first things first! *


"Hi, I'm back. Hope you didn't eat all the meat."

Quickly grabbing something suitable to eat (ie. something with meat), Zaedrarrgh shoots a sidewards glance to Ktarle to judge her present state.


* Hmm, good. She doesn't seem to be drunk. *


"Why are you all staring at Vyrkris' communicator? Is it a bomb or something?" He tries to emphasize his joke with a friendly smile and turns, without waiting for an answer, quickly to Ktarle to tell her the news:

"Ktarle, the captain told me that you were upped to First Class because they isolated Vyrkris in your quarters. Strange thing that, isn't it? By the stars, Humans can be really angry if you break their beloved rules, even it's only a tiny breach like leaving your comm on when you shouldn't. ... Uh, no offense to anyone present, of course."

Ktarle raises an eyebrow at Zaedrarrgh's words. "Humans are strange sometimes," she murmurs in Trokh, seemingly not realizing she spoke aloud. She raises her voice and speaks in Galanglic. "I should be going then, to move my things and see if anyone else needs anything of me. Thank you for telling me." She then turns and smiles a bit at Sanaath. "I will see you later, yes? Just buzz me and we can meet for those drinks we missed." She turns and sweeps out the door, lost in thought.
 

Day5, 18:40 Restaurant.

As Tomas, Ruzz'Koff, and Quinn talk, they see Anaarsi emerge from the Dining Room, followed several seconds later by Ktarle. Anaarsi seems startled when he notices the three (especially Quinn) off in the corner, and moves directly to the lift. Ktarle also notices the three men talking and hunched over the portacomp.
 

Ktarle moves slowly toward the three men, wondering if she should get involved. If none of them stop her, she will continue on to her cabin, taking the "scenic route" if she is headed in the wrong direction.
 

Saanath sits in the nearly (?) empty room, absently drumming his fingers on the table, deep in thought. But the furrow across his brow suggests that he does not particularly like any of the conclusions he is comming to.

OOC: [Locations of those previously at the dinner, as of 18:40]
Upper Deck Restuarant: Tomas, Ruzz'koff, Quinn [all viewing video], Ktarle, Anaarsi (entering lift)

Captain's Dining Room: Saanath, Zaedhrarrg

?: Trelene, Captain, Eduardo
 

* Hmm. Not very talkative today. Definitely not drunk. *


When nobody responds to his joke, Zaedrarrgh picks up either a big tray or two smaller ones and begins heaping an enormous amount of all kinds of foodstuffs upon it/them, paying special attention to everything looking delicious to his mind.


* Poor Vyrkris is bound to be rather hungry, going without dinner and all. And if she doesn't want it all, it surely won't go to waste. [grin] *


When he's finished his selection, Zaed will casually stroll back to Vyrkris' cabin if nothing else catches his attention and nobody intercepts him. After all, the captain expressly allowed him to visit her.* On the way he will occasionally try a particularly tasty morsel from the tray.


* (At least that's how Zaed 'remembers' it. :D )
