::Heading underground, towards the main complex, the corridor grew warmer... climbing closer to freezing point. The corridor was quiet, lonely... but there was something quietly echoing along the hall.::
::Salak walked towards the surface and the source of the sound, realising quickly that it was music... the Andorian Blues. He stopped at the doorway of the room from which it was coming and watched as T'Pel played away. She stopped as she noticed her brother::
T'Pel: Are you lost?
Salak: No, just listening in.
T'Pel: Why? Where is the logic in that?
Salak: Where is the logic in playing it?
T'Pel: Because I enjoy it
Salak: Exactly... However, joy is an emotion which we must try to control and suppress.
::T'Pel frowned. She'd never been to Vulcan and felt more Andorian in her ways... she felt that the Vulcan way may well not be her way::
T'Pel: ::gesturing towards an instrument in the corner, a smile appearing on her face:: You can always join me...
Salak: ::Trying hard to suppress any hint of emotion:: As agreeable as that may sound, I have to meet with father.
::T'Pels face dropped as Salak bid her farewell for the time being, her brother starting to walk down the hall as she tries to hold him back. Before long, Salak reaches the hall in which his father is reading.::
Vorak: You've read the draft treaty again?
Salak: Yes
Vorak: ...so you are ready for this afternoons talks?
Salak: I am better prepared now than at any previous point.
::Vorak moves to fetch an old teapot from one of the tables::
Vorak: That is most agreeable, we shall expect you in the main chamber at 14:00 hours.
Salak: I shall be there.
Vorak: Spice Tea?
Salak: Please.
::Vorak poured them each a cup before sitting back down::
Vorak: ::Disapprovingly:: So, Lieutenant?
Salak: Lieutenant Junior Grade, yes.
Vorak: Yet you've only been out of the acadamy for 10 months?
Salak: The captain would not bestow certain responsabilities upon people whom he'd feel could not handle them.
Vorak: I see...
