::As the music began, Dassa moved through the crowd first to find Lael, her hot chocolate in one hand, her other grasping Tobian's as she pulled him through the crowd.:: | |||
::Lael stared at the boxes containing her awards. Full lieutenant. Finally. A sudden murmur behind her made her jump and she turned abruptly to find Jansen there.:: | |||
Orrey: Congratulations, Lieutenant. | |||
Rosek: ::smiles:: Thanks. ::teases:: I suppose since I'm now officially your superior officer, I'll be hearing more "ma'am"s from you. | |||
Orrey: ::Jansen laughed some and raised his glass.:: Don't hold your breath sweetheart. | |||
::Lael's smile widened at the familiar banter.:: | |||
Orrey: ::Nodding some.:: I have some people I want to talk to but when we get back up I'd like to get together. I have a holiday gift for you. | |||
Rosek: ::arches an eyebrow:: Oh? What a coincidence. I have a gift for you, too. | |||
::In truth, she'd had it since before the whole debacle between them. She'd ordered it the moment they'd arrived on Earth after a year over there. She'd even paid extra to have it customized and expedited. A familiar face slipped through the crowd toward her.:: | |||
::Dassa found her friend and placed her empty cup on the nearby table, hugging her friend tightly.:: | |||
Alexander: Congratulations, Lae! I'm so happy for you! | |||
Rosek: ::smiles wanly:: Yeah, finally. ::kisses her cheek:: Congratulations on your awards, too, Dassa. I know the last mission was really tough on you. | |||
Alexander: Thank you. And it really was. | |||
::She pulled back, again grasping Tobian's hand tightly and pecking him on the lips.:: | |||
::Seeing Chythar and Alex, she smiled. :: | |||
Alexander: ::To Tobian:: Come on, darling. Let's say hello. | |||
Dalton: Response | |||
Rosek: I'll come with you. | |||
::Though Lael had spoken to Chythar before the ceremony, she didn't want to stand in the corner alone. This was a time to be celebrating with friends. As they approached, Tobian spoke first.:: | |||
Dalton: Congrats, gentlemen. | |||
Alexander: ::grins:: Congratulations, Alex. ::gives Chythar a one-armed hug:: Congratulations, Chythar. ::kisses his cheek:: I know those Purple Hearts aren't easy to receive, but you earned it. ::teases:: Maybe now Hallbjorn and I will be able to convince you to carry some kind of weapon to defend yourself with. | |||
Skyfire: Remind me next time we have coffee to explain myself on that subject... | |||
Dalton: You want to talk about any of that? | |||
::Both Lael and Dassa sensed how Chythar felt about that idea.:: | |||
Alexander: ::To Tobian:: ::teases:: Turn it off, darling. We're here to relax and enjoy ourselves. Leave poor Chythar be. | |||
Rosek: ::grins wryly:: I have two, Chythar, so I'm right up there with you. | |||
Blair: I was just trying to tell him not to look at it as being hurt. Look at it as being honored for his willingness to sacrifice anything for his ideals. | |||
Skyfire: ::to Tobian:: No. How about we change the subject? :: then he turned to Lael, the new lieutenant on the ship, whom he sensed before she got close enough to touch. :: Congrats to you, lass. You've earned this. | |||
Rosek: ::jokes:: I've earned it a couple times over with all the crap I went through over there. | |||
::Dassa thought it was funny...no, strange...how most of the original Gorkon crew called the other verse over there. Glancing at Lael, she supposed there was a good reason for it...one she might never really understand.:: | |||
Blair: Well, congrats. You’ve definitely earned it, regardless of what happened there. | |||
Alexander: So what are everyone's plans for the rest of shoreleave? | |||
Blair: Plans...just one. Staying clear of you and hot tubs. | |||
::Dassa nudged him playfully, laughing.:: | |||
Alexander: That one wasn't entirely my fault. In fact, it was Lael's brilliant idea. | |||
Rosek: ::scoffs:: How was I supposed to know Chythar can't hold his liquor? It was supposed to be good fun. | |||
Skyfire: Gettin' this checked out :: holding up his injured wrist :: and spendin' time with Alex. No other plans. | |||
Dalton: Nope. | |||
Alexander: ::arches an eyebrow:: ::to Chythar:: You really are an accident magnet, aren't you? | |||
Anyone: Response | |||
::Alex laughed.:: | |||
Blair: Really, no big plans here. It wouldn’t be fun if it was all planned out would it. | |||
Skyfire: Remember, no battle plan survives contact with the enemy. | |||
Blair: Another run or two down the slopes would be good with me though. | |||
Skyfire: Ah'll leave yeh to it, Alex. Much fun as Ah had, Ah probably willnae be goin' anywhere near the slopes, except to wait for you at the bottom with the cocoa. | |||
Rosek: ::sighs:: Actually, I'll probably be heading back to the ship in the morning, so for me vacation is over. Got way too much paperwork. | |||
Alexander: ::grimaces:: Nearly ran over O'Malley earlier. I think I'm over skiing for this trip. ::leans on Tobian:: We'll probably just take some time to ourselves. ::grins at Tobian:: Right, darling? ::to the others:: He's not too keen on the cold. ::squeezes Tobian's arm playfully:: Maybe we can check out the hot tub, aye? | |||
Dalton: Response | |||
Rosek: ::nods at his wrist:: What did you do to it anyway? | |||
Skyfire: Sprained it during snowboard lessons. | |||
Rosek: ::to Alex:: ::teases:: Bet this isn't quite what you signed up for, huh? ::smiles:: | |||
Blair: Response | |||
Rosek: ::laughs:: Don't get me wrong...it's worth all the trouble keeping him around. But he really should have his own private patient room in Sickbay by now. | |||
