Lasiter thought to himself a single word response, 'Shi!'
He looked at M'Rrenn and the Public Relations dude, who were standing next
to each other, for a brief moment. Lasiter then turned to look in the
direction that the question came from to reply.
Both beings were a bit taken aback by the question, but did not let it show.
"I am not sure where you heard that, but it is not the practice for
members of Starfleet Command to fraternize in that regard. While I am not
aware of a regulation against it, I can say that it is discouraged.
However, while the investigation is ongoing, I must decline to comment at
this time.
Thank you all for coming." Lasiter answered.
As soon as he answered Lasiter departed with Renaud and a public relations
officer in tow. They headed for Lasiter's office. On the way they, even
the security detail, could tell that Lasiter was not happy. Some would say
ticked off...
M'Rrenn made his way to Boulay, Firehawk, the new officer as soon as he
could after Lasiter departed.
"Captain, Commanderrrs. I assume that the CinC will want to speak
with each of you in his office. Please make yourrr way therrre as quickly
as you can." M'Rrenn said to the group.
Then turning to Commander Dais, "Commanderrr, welcome to Spacedock.
I am Commanderrr M'Rrrrrrenn, Admirrral Lasiterrr's chief of staff. Please
forrrgive my rrrudeness at not making intrrroductions soonerrr. I am
pleased to be worrrking with you." the 2 meter tall Caitian added.
