Off: Just for future reference, I dont mind if you speak for me. As
long as you dont make me say something ridiculus. But in normal
conversation, it is cool because when I have to put in my words in
the reply, Im not sure what I should be saying to you or asking.
On:
"Im glad to have you on board Major." Started Thuraya, gesturing to
take a seat. "I've heard good things."
"I'm glad to be serving aboard the Xantara, sir. She's a beauty,"
responded Jackson as he sat down.
"Do you know anybody on board yet," asked the Colonel. "She is a big
ship and the Marine Corps is just a bit bigger than that."
"Actually, yes I do. The Infantry Company CO Serenity, is an old
friend of mine from the Academy. We tried to stay in contact over
the years, but we kinda drifted away, until we both found out that
we'd be working together aboard the Xantara," Jackson responded with
a smile. "So, from what my PADD said about the ship, I have some
very nice fighters, along with a top squadron."
"Maybe you should take out one of them. I actually had a hand in
designing them," Thuraya stated. "You would be surprised by their
handling."
"That would be a good idea. Besides, I wouldn't want to find myself
not understanding how to fly my bird in the middle of a battle," he
answered.
"Have you explored our ship yet Major?" Thuraya asked.
"Nope. I reported here as soon as I got aboard. I was going to
check my quarters, get a bite to eat, and see my fighters and pilots,
not in any particular order," he chuckled.
"Well, Im glad to have you hear," the colonel was saying as he stood
up. Porter followed him up. "I hope you will be attending the welcome
aboard party tonight."
"Of course sir," replied Porter. "I wouldnt miss it for the universe."
"Very well Major. I will see you tonight then," Thuraya said with a
nod.
"Yes sir. Have a good day sir," the major said. He then turned and
headed out of the door.
Thuraya decided to have a seat and look over some padds that he had
been neglecting. Gellert was a "doing" guy. Not a paper pusher. He
absolutely despised having to do something that didn't actually
involve real labor. He had just started reading the first one when
the door chimed.
"Come in," stated the colonel.
At that, the door slid open and the marine that had entered the
bridge as he and the major were speaking, walked in.
"How can I help you captain?"
<Tag Captain Foster>
Off: Once again, you can speak for me Just dont make a fool out of me.
