The man was still Starfleet, after all, even if not technically part of the ship and the computer should allow him most places around the ship. Still, it was nice of the man to be thoughtful and stay out of the way of a crew still learning about the new ship and probably with much still to do to prepare for their departure.<br/><br/>His eyes glanced briefly towards the pair whose conversation seemed to be going fairly well judging by their closeness. It was good to see the crew already getting on happily with one another, things could always be a bit iffy in confined spaces for extended periods.<br/><br/>He refocused back on the Attache as the man spoke again about the other Trill. "Ah yes, Lieutenant Teel," Arik said, quickly giving a brief internal onceover of the personnel file he had on his Operations Officer. Given the man's past it sounded as if Antole's suggestion would be quite smart. "Absolutely," he said, "Feel free to set up some time on my calendar. I do not foresee any issues with it, I understand having contingency plans in place is not uncommon for the Trill, though I am eager to learn more."<br/><br/>Glancing across the bar he saw another figure had entered, though the Captain made no direct move to say hello or draw her over - sometimes, he had learned, socializing as a senior officer could be difficult in places like this. Sometimes a senior presence could even make people uncomfortable with them not feeling like they could be as free as they normally would. So, for now, he would let his crew approach him if they chose. There would always be opportunities in the future for interactions.
