She knew that being the least warrior oriented of the group, she was >not exactly going to win over a ton of fans in the room. The Klingon's hands clenched, but he remained silent, glaring at his screen. Trust was not a big commodity to Klingons. The Caitian, on the other hand, reacted differently. "Agrrreed," she said. "But I have trrried everrrything I can think of to get them to trrrussst me, to trrrussst usss. I have rrrun out of ideasss. We trrreat them kindly, thusss defying theirrr prrropaganda that we torrrturre and murrrderr ourrr prrrisssonerrrss. We trrreat them with rrresspect, and they sssneerrr at usss. We show them ourrr ssstrrrength by holding them even afterrr rrrepeated essscape attemptsss. We have trrried to get to know them, and they ignorrre usss. I do not know what morrre to do." She sounded tired of trying, the long frustrating trip back to Terra having taken its toll. There was an unsaid sigh hanging in the air after the Caitian's comments. The frustration was not Captain Tr'Lawsh's alone. Daphne also had those feelings, and she had not had the hectic schedule that her companion had had to endure over the last few weeks. "I am sure that nothing we have done has been in vain. I am sure that it will take time to really make an impression. They have not been with us for very long and have a lifetime of learning to overcome." (Tr'Lawsh?)
"Did you want to talk with the big guy before trying the holodeck or
after? Or we could try dealing with him in the holodeck."
(Tr'Lawsh?)
