Sevo: I’m going to need more bloodwine… :: She paused, finishing the mug. :: So you still have the nanoprobes in you? :: Ayiana eyed Galven up and down suspiciously, as if he was ready to burst into a Borg at any moment. ::

Galven: Don’t worry. The nanoprobes were taken out by Lael. You can even see for yourself if you want?

Lael Rosek. Ayiana remembered her; served with the woman for a time on the Victory and Gorkon.


Sevo: No, I’ll take your word for it. Glad to hear Lael is doing well. How is her spinal injury?
Sevo: No, I’ll take your word for it. Glad to hear Lael is doing well. How is her spinal injury?


He didn’t even realize he said Lael’s name until Ayiana said it back to him. As he furrowed his brow and took the rest of his drink. German really tried to find the words that were suddenly lost on him. As if a long forgotten memory had just been burned into his mind.
Galven: ::stares at his mug, takes a sip, then glances back up at Ayiana:: Are you seeing anyone?
 
Galven: Computer. Another round of drinks. Double on the Ale.
 
Ayiana paused her meal, blinking. Did she say something wrong?
 
The last time he had seen her was very short and sudden. With all the work German busied himself with, he hadn’t had the chance to mourn the loss of the relationship.
 
Galven: ::murmurs:: She had to stop taking the medicine when she found out we were pregnant. ::grasps his second drink:: Last time I heard, she was doing well enough. ::grasps the mug with both hands:: The sudden transfer orders the Astraeus received really affected her. ::takes a drink:: I lost her when the baby was lost. ::clears his throat:: Win some and you lose some, right? Anyways, that was too much to say and to put on you. I apologize. 
 
Ayiana straight up dropped her food on her plate, completely forgotten. She stared right at Galven.
 
Sevo: *Pregnant?!* I haven’t heard from her in a while but...she was...you were…damn.
 
She paused again, taking a long, slow sip of wine, more to shut her mouth than anything else, while she regained her composure.
 
Sevo: I...I’m sorry. I didn’t know you and her were like that. I’m sorry for your loss.
 
Galven: I chose not to have our relationship broadcasted so others wouldn’t think my promotions and awards were given to me because I was sleeping with the First Officer. No need to apologi--
 
Sevo:  Don’t put down the loss so quickly. You lost *a child.* I have no idea how I’d feel if that happened, and I’ve had several over the centuries.
 
It was a good thing that she had interrupted him because he hadn’t put two and two together ever since the news broke about it. German was always a workaholic, but when something so tragic happened, he would hammer down which would help his memory from thinking about any of those transgressions.
 
Galven: ::stares at his mug:: Her name was going to be Galilea Belle. I was so excited about finally being a father. ::smiles softly, lost in thought as he saw more of his reflection in the mug:: The things I was going to spoil her with. It hasn’t been easy, but Lael is most likely better off without someone like me. ::takes a sip, then glances back up at Ayiana:: Are you seeing anyone?
 
Ayiana smiled as Galven revealed his daughter’s name.


Sevo: That’s a beautiful name. I’m sure you would have been a great father. :: She took a sip of her freshly refilled wine. :: No, I’m not at the moment. I hope you’re not asking...I mean...we just met...again...um… :: This time, she stuffed her mouth with a large bite of the sandwich.:: oO SHUT. UP. MOUTH. Oo

Galven: ::chuckles:: I wasn’t asking, but more like trying to reverse engines on myself for the time being. I wouldn’t be a great candidate to match your prowess anyways. ::extends his mug to klink hers as a signal hopefully allowing the awkwardness to drift away::
