<div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/d/d8/Lyra-avi.jpg)</div><strong>Character:</strong>Captain Lyra Core (http://elliquiy.com/wiki/Lyra_Core)<br/><br/><strong>Location:</strong>Captain's chair<br/><br/><strong>Time:</strong>mid-Morning<br/><br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Ares and Kar'tak<br/><hr/><br/><br/>As she continued to withstand his 'attitude' which showed through so brightly, the human side of her almost...almost wanted to roll her eyes. But she didn't. She sat there blank faced and listened to his 'reasons.' To be honest, he made good points. She just didn't appreciate how he delivered said points.<br/><br/>"I fail to see your point in relating the comets to your requests. Unless if that is a roundabout way of asking me permission to look into them. If so, you have it. But we aren't diverting our path to accommodate them." She told him as her attention was diverted briefly to a beep from her tablet. Just a update from engineering on a Jeffrey's tube which had been repaired.<br/><br/>Bringing her attention back to face him she endured the rest of his 'speech' in silence. When he finally quieted down. She spoke again. "While I can certainly understand some of your points. I don't necessarily agree with them all. That said, I am willing to grant the request. However, seeing as how you are off duty and lacking in protocol, I will not grant the request immediately, as I do not see it as a immediate need. Instead, I will put the orders through at a later time when I am not otherwise<em>occupied</em>. In the meantime however, I highly suggest you go for your medical check ups. Now. Seeing as how we have discussed this, you are now dismissed, Mr. Walker." There wasn't any doubt that she used 'Mr' instead of his rank on purpose. It was something of a point of her distaste for his current state. It was also something of a threat.<br/><br/>However, with that she was done with him and made that abundantly clear by turning her chair away from him. "Good morning, commander." She greeted her first officer as if she just now noticed him. She might have even smiled, if she wasn't part Vulcan. However, there was the subtle hint of a pleasant undertone to her words towards him. She liked her XO. He was thorough, calm, paid attention to the crew, and had manners. At least with that officer, Starfleet had done her a favor in assigning him to the Artemis.
