Makari waited until the tide of exiting officers had ebbed from tidal wave proportions and down to the trickle of stragglers. He was in no hurry to make his way back to his duty station, in fact he was wrapped up in his own thoughts. A mission. Big and mysterious, with an anomalous substance at the heart of it. So many things could go wrong. So many things had gone wrong before when he dealt with such a thing. He could almost see the blood on his hands. He could almost hear the ominous high pitched alert as the mysterious omega echelon flashed across every monitor on the bridge. And he could see the flood of unknown men in unmarked uniform who had boarded their ship. Section 31.<br/><br/>He knew in the back of his mind that wouldn't be how it went this time. That was... a once in a life time situation. Witnessing something that was supposed to not exist, surviving a run in with shadowy groups. He shook his head and pushed the thoughts away as he rose from his seat and headed to the doors to exit the observation lounge. As he did so he heard the Captain mention his name and slowed mid-step, turned slightly and smiled at the man, offered a nod of his head.<br/><br/>"Lieutenant, I would be glad to look things over, just come to me at your earliest convenience and I will take a look at what you have to offer," He said to Lieutenant Tosh in as formal a tone as he could muster. Which compared to the die hard rank and file types... well was rather casual. But he was what he was. And that was a Risian trying to do the right thing, the right way.
