Renn was visibly relieved by Alexi's reaction. He accepted the other man's outstretched hand with a warm, open smile and shook it.<br/><br/>"Thank you, sir. And it's really not a problem. No one knows everything, after all."<br/><br/>He, too, recognized the dismissal from his superior and stepped to one side to make the door available to the Betazoid.<br/><br/>"I'll be there, sir. I've seen it already, in fact. It may be a little small, but that just makes it more cozy, right?" He had wanted to say 'intimate' instead of 'cozy', but he wasn't sure how Alexi would react to innuendo of that stripe. He'd have to be careful until he'd gauged the crew as to how far he could let his naturally flirtatious demeanor go. But that was one of the exciting things about making new friends, and he looked forward to it.<br/><br/>"I'd say good luck with the captain, but he sounds like a good man from everything I've read. See you later, sir!"<br/><br/>Renn turned and headed down the corridor, back toward the lounge. He couldn't wait to get started.
