"If you will excuse me for a moment, I will check with station operations
to
see what they have available. I'll be back in a moment.", Abrams said excusing himself for a moment. Joanna watched as Abrams departed before she glanced back and forth between her two partners. "That was ... interesting." (response?) A moment later Abrams returned, "Admiral, I have been able to secure quarters for each member of your party. Including your security detail. I have also reserved one of the observation lounges for the duration of your stay. If you will leave your bags here, security will get them to your quarters. I will take you to the observation lounge for your briefing." Jared nodded. "That is a very diplomatic way of putting it, Counselor." He turned to David to see how he was doing. David's forehead was spotted a bit with sweat, but he was holding up quite
well considering it was his first interaction with Van Der Loo.
The Admiral continued. "The good Admiral is exhibiting the same sort
of argumentative nature I experienced when I spoke with him yesterday. The
question is going to be how much of that is his personality and how much is a
defensiveness about something that has gone terribly wrong out here."
