Lasiter approached the two men at the table, his security detail waiting with Renaud's detail near the entrance.
"Good evening Admirals. I hope that I'm not interrupting." Jared took his napkin from his lap and wiped his hands with it before placing it on the table and standing up. "It is a pleasure to see you, Sammy," he replied, never one for formallities. 'Sammy....' He never did like that. However, he was just too happy to see a friend that he had not seen in a very long time, he let it go. "It is good to see you too, Jared. I trust your trip was uneventful.", Lasiter answered using the man's first name. Something that was not typical for him to do when on duty. Lasiter tended to be considerably more formal when in uniform. "The trip was wonderful. �The crew of the Centurian are to be commended." �Jared paused for a moment. �He could see that the 'Sammy' comment still riled the Admiral as it had since he had first started calling him that. �"Would you care to join us?" "Thank you for the offer, but no thank you. �I am rather tired, but I had wanted to make sure that you made it here without trouble. �We can talk in the morning. �Thank you for coming. �You two have a good evening.", Lasiter answered kindly. The signs of fatigue were on his face. �He even sounded tired. �Not physically tired, but mentally and emotionally drained. Jared glanced toward Lorin. He could definitely see that things were taking a toll. "Perhaps, I could join you and we could catch up onthings." (Renaud/Lasiter?)
