At the same time a couple came over to the table, and it was clear that they were a couple. Chase and Sara were dressed a lot like Jaime, though their T-shirts said "Humanity Rulez!". They plopped down in the last two seats.
"Sorry we're late!" chirrped Sara, who seemed almost too chipper for the morng session.
Chase nodded. "You should have seen the people at the tube hub. It was packed."
Richard, once again annoyed, " Well, at least we are all here. I think we should get down to business."
The others nodded in responses. They did not find Richard all that pleasent to be around, but he was the group leader, so they listened.
He turned to James. "How are things going with the pamphlets?"
James pulled out an artist case and slipped out a piece of paper that he spread out in front of everyone. "This is the design that I came up with."
The pamplet highlighted the important achievement that Earth and its inhabitants had accomplished over the centuries. It also pointed out how Earth's development had been held back since it's involvement in the Federation and other races.
Jaime looked at the pamphlet, but she did not say anything. No one expected her to say anything, either. She was tolerated by the group because she was James' sister.
She blew on the hot coffee and took a sip as she met her brother's eyes through the steam. Her look said how much she supported whatever he did.
Sarah was the first to respond. "I like!" she said with an ecstatic smile. "It definitely says what we want it to.
Chase nodded in a agreement. "I also like the graphics you chose."
Richard was silent for a moment as he took in all of it. It was well designed, but something wasn't quite right. "It needs more. It says what we believe, but it doesn't say it strong enough. Earth has suffered because of all the ETs who have taken advantage of us. They have raped our planet of its talent and its materials. Starfleet and the Federation are what they are because they were raised on the back of Earthers."
