The air pressure in the cabin changed when the air lock slid open and five people stood inside their full body ecosuits. Their comms kicked on and a greeting given.  “Welcome home Lieutenant Amadalia Ilia Silverleaf.” a soft feminine voice greeted her, the slight figure turning towards the overly large male next to Ama’s side. “Greetings species - X41025. Do you currently understand our speech without ship capable translators?” She asked formally, and Ama closed her eyes at the question. It meant they were going to be shoved into isolation pretty quickly.<br/><br/>She shifted on the balls of her feet for a moment and decided to head off the basic separation and investigation at the pass. It was not the best introduction to her world, or her people. It made them seem to be… germophobic. “Captain Jax’eer Nimolos-Silverleaf.” She stated looking at the woman in front who spoke. “You will kindly address him as such Sirias Kani Oakan.” The tone in her voice was one that Jrax and never quite heard before. It spoke of an understated authority. Though perhaps the add-on to his name for introduction was a bit more surprising.<br/><br/>It certainly was to the small crowd standing there, as was evidenced by how they stiffened when the name flowed off her tongue. After several long moments the stunned silence, the group’s leader, Sirias spoke again.<br/>“Are you invoking mate standards with this… new species?”<br/><br/>“Yes. We are not to be separated while going under decontamination. No medical, personal, or other pertinent information can be disclosed or garnered without his and my express permission. Now that we have that covered, please allow us to proceed to the decontamination chamber.” Ama stared down the woman behind the darkened cover of the ecosuit. Finally after a few more moments the group gave way and a team of technicians began to arrive as if to board the ship.<br/><br/>“Our property. Express permissions.” She reminded the woman before her and with an angry motion the woman waved a couple of fingers in the air. Obviously the signal to leave well enough alone.<br/><br/>“Jrax, dear, please make sure Trevi knows to… lock up.” She said softly near his ear and then looked up at him with a soft smile, though her eyes told him how serious she was about it. Finally she looked back to the “welcoming committee” and arched her brow again. “Are you going to allow us a chance to disembark by guiding the way, or not? I assure you that I am most anxious to be back home with my parents and family. I have all the data files for my unexpected relocation to the terraforming planet. Up until just before my rescue, loaded up in the biosuit’s data storage device. “ She continued softly and waited.<br/><br/>It wasn’t long before the woman turned around and all the other members followed suit, turning as well.  “Indeed. We will need all pertinent information on your discovery of a new intelligent self-aware species as well. It is highly irregular for you to have… dropped this unexpected universe thought changing process. We would have liked to be better prepared.” The woman said irritated at a unexpected event ruining her logical, orderly day. Ama knew she had always been the type that carried a tree up her ass. No matter how she tried to convince her otherwise, she would not be dissuaded from the notion that everything was always going to go smoothly if planned out correctly.<br/><br/>“Hmmm, no you do not, and there was no ability to warn you beforehand. You should always plan for the unexpected, and then realize that plan is going to fail. We are here now, and this is happening. By rights he is an official, if Xenobiological species, citizen of the Empire. You will treat him and all aspects of this matter with full respect.”<br/><br/>Sadly, the grand tour she had planned out for Jrax of the station was going to be delayed for several hours. It also seemed likely that there was going to be more implications with her  return with an alien mate in tow than she first assumed. She hated when her own words spoken moments before, came back against her so poignantly.
