<div class="floatright">(http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y156/jillvader/mw-nmfkmpkarimonero_zps55a1bf27.jpg)</div><strong>Kari Moreno</strong><br/><strong>In her office, on the ship, in space</strong><br/><strong>Tagged: Allia</strong><br/><hr/><br/><strong>Dropship <em>Black Sun</em>, outbound<br/> Deneb Algedi, Benjamin District<br/>Draconis Combine<br/>1 January 3145</strong><br/><br/>Kari had passably cleaned herself up and changed into a simple sleeveless top and combat pants, allowing herself whole moments to relax before she started work. That in turn was interrupted by the knock on the door, but it wasn’t an unwelcome interruption either.<em>Anything that puts it off a little longer,</em>she joked to herself before answering it, smiling warmly as she saw Allia there. Letting her lieutenant in, she closed the door behind her before resuming her chair.<br/><br/>“Have a seat,” She offered. “There’s the bunk or, well, the desk. Even the boss doesn’t get much room to call her own,” a laugh came with that admission before she continued. “Seriously though, I wanted to thank you so much for today. First up you manage to pull off that amazing sweep and nail the Crushers perfectly, snaring them between our lances. You’re a great leader, you know, and are fantastic at getting the best out of your men.”<br/><br/>“Also, thanks again for agreeing to handle Moshe,” She continued. “It wasn’t an easy call, and I didn’t want to put the pressure on you either. But, again, I think you’d be the best at getting him into shape, and not just because his ‘Mech matches your lance.”<br/><br/>Kari gave a shrug. “I wasn’t ready for Dad’s death; I mean, I don’t think anyone ever really is for that sort of thing, but at the same time, I was way too young and certainly not as prepared as I could have been.” She gave a shake of her hair, firey locks tumbling down around her. “Hell, I know I had shirked off duties and responsibilities in past while running off and doing other crazy things” She held out one elaborately tattooed arm, as if using it as proof.<br/><br/>“I know I couldn’t have made it this far without good people supporting me,” She continued. “And you’re pretty much top of that list.”<br/>
