It is my job to worry Miss Moira and I have to worry about both my own reputation and my family’s.” She replied as she got to work on her meal. “I cannot afford to have false rumors spread about the ship like that about an officer. It would risk undermining the chain of the command and the respect that officers are supposed to receive.” It was hard enough for a rather petite officer like her to get respect or get a good position that didn’t rely on her family’s influence. She didn’t scandalous rumors going about and making things even harder<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Moira smirked as she listened to Laura's take on it all. About how it was her job to worry, and how it would affect her reputation, and the reputation with her family. Laura also used the the typical "Chain of Command" Excuse that most young officers used to try, and convince themselves more than anyone else that such things should never happen. Moira simply rolled her eyes. "I swear you, and the Captain have more in common than just your taste in eyewear. I've been on this tub since before the day she set sail from Okinawa.  In all that time, I can tell you this. You're on this boat cause you earned your spot here. The Captain takes a very personal hand in selecting the crew. Even to the point of telling the Higher ups to shove it if they don't like his decisions. And he never picks anyone simply cause of who they're related too. He picked you on your merits, and achievements. Don't let anyone tell you differently." Moira stated with a firm motherly fashion. Her curvy figure adding the Matronly aura she gave off.<br/><br/>"The Captain also understands that we're all the way out here in the fringes of space for a very long period of time, years even. Now given the drastically reduced Human population, that whole "Fraternization between the ranks" rules have been modified. For the Captain, so long as you don't let your Personal life affect your duties. He doesn't care." Moira stated. Basically telling Laura if she wanted to court Charlotte, she could. "Also, if you let rumors bug you so much, they're only going to get worse. So simply ignore them." She offered one last time before she decided to have some more fun. "Or do your tastes lean more to someone a bit more mature?" Moira giggled in a flirty manner as she bent forward suggestively, her arms squeezing her large bust together.
