David's eyes cleared a bit--he had gone into a terrified rant, "I'm
sorry...to both of you." He looked down, "This, to be blunt, just scares the
hell out of me." It was clear that this trip was going to be extremely
difficult for him.

Joanna reached across and placed a hand on David's hand.  "There is no
reason to apologize, David.  You have had a bad experience, and a lot of
that occurred directly because of Admiral Van Der Loo.  You are going to
feel anxiety.  Just remember that Admiral Jackson and myself are here for
support as well as to make sure we all get to the root of what happened."

David looked up at the touch and smiled a touch, "The doc knows best." He
blushed slightly but it brought some of his vigor back

Jared was pleased to see that the Counselor was able to calm the good
Captain.  He also had to question whether David should be on active duty. 
While there was no question that he should experience some concerns about
their current assignments, the speed to which he had fallen apart indicated
that he definitely needed more help with his emotional state.  Hopefully, he
would be able to keep a handle on things during the mission.  "Would you
prefer it if we worked on other people before interviewing VanDerLoo?"

"If it gives us more evidence than I think that'd be the natural path but if
we want to get VanderLoo by surprise....."

Joanna agreed that it was probably the best approach.  "As the CO of the
area, he is also going to want to greet us upon our arrival.  It would be
the most appropriate place to start.  Perhaps it would be a good idea if you
played rough, Admiral." she said as she turned her navy colored eyes toward
him.

Jared smiled.  He assumed that she was hoping that by doing that, it would take VanDerLoo's focus off David.  "I think that could be arranged, particularly considering my concerns about what is going on out here and his behavior when we spoke yesterday."
 
(guys?)
 
(OOC: Chris, at what point did you want us to arrive?)
