Mal looked back at the doctors, grinning a bit as they followed. Taking them to the elevator, he stood at the back as he made room for them, though he had to admire their appearance as well. Looking over to Avery, he gave a slight smirk before offering his hand. "I'm sorry for the comment before. I din't mean to imply that ye don't know how the personnel can be. I must say though, ye have quite a bit of force behind yer accidental tackles. Almost knocked me onte me bum," the sergeant said with a grin and a small chuckle.<br/><br/>As the group made their way down the elevator towards the gate room, Mal gave a slight sigh. He had no idea what to expect from his new commanding officer, and from the looks of it, the team was mostly civilians. I get to be a glorified babysitter, he thought before the doors opened. Raising his left arm up, he looked at his watch for a moment, checking the time idly as he waited for the women to step out.
