What to feed a Caitian?
Feb 13th, 2006, 1:24pm
 
ON
 
<< Taylor's Quarters - Serenity Base >>
 
Dan had been waiting for Jackie to arrive for over an hour, thankfully the pain he had felt earlier was starting to disappate. He hadn't wanted to go see the bases doctor. Explaining how he got a knee in the neather regions or more importantly why he got them wouldn't have been fun.
 
Several asprin's and a cold pack had sorted him, at least well enough for him to start moving again. PErhaps by tomorrow he would be feeling the effects again, if so he could always take himself to sickbay.
 
'I'm kidding myself' thought Dan as he looked to the table in front of him again. IT was true, he hadn't been waiting for Jackie to arrive. He knew he could easily call her up here earlier if he wanted.
 
No, his mind was pre-occupied by one thing which was signified by that little black box on the desk.
 
A little over an hour ago Starfleet Intelligence had contacted him once again, this time with an ultimatum. Return to the fleet, or be cut off from Starfleet forever, more importantly if he was cut off Scardia's help would be too.
 
It was tantamount to blackmail, yet Dan didn't mind. The mere thought of that scared him.
 
At some point, perhaps even before betleH he had made the mental decision to rejoin the fleet, all it would have taken to arrrange would have been a single subspace message. Yet he had held off doing it, prefering instead to keep his civilian status, it allowed him to run if he decided too. He was a part of Starfleet but not at the same time, it was his comfort zone.
 
In one fell swoop that zone was being taken from him by Starfleet once again, he was being forced to embrace something before he was truely ready.
 
In the end that was the thought that scared him most, his life and career was being manipulated again, and this time he wasn't sure he minded.
 
He had already sent his reply to Starfleet Intelligence, truth be told that was the easy part. Now he was left with the harder part, the personal battle. In the months since his resignation at the last betleH Competition Dan had on occasion been forced to wear a uniform, but never any insignia of rank. The small black box in front of him would change that, and his relationship with most of the people aboard the station, including John.
 
He just wasn't sure he was ready to do that.
 
12 months of relative freedom, 12 months without having to watch his p's and q's, 12 months that just had to end now.
 
He reached forward his hand shaking and picked the box off of his desk, sliently he opened it and pulled out the contents. He stared at them for a few moments before walking in to his bedroom.
 
When he returned 5 minutes later he stood in front of a full length mirror, his duty jump suit gone instead it was replaced by an admiral's uniform complete with a set of Rear Admiral's pips. He had to admit he had missed the feeling that came with it.
 
Now he just had to put up with the next few days, he simply wasn't sure how those who knew him would react.

<<Outside of Taylor's Quarters>>  
 
Jackie adjusted her uniform’s tunic slightly, not that it needed adjustment but it was something she did when not too sure of her decision. She now stood in front of Dan Taylor’s quarters having been invited there shortly before her qualifying match; which she managed to win, albeit not without taking damage herself before knocking her opponent’s weapon out of his hands; but that damage in the form of a 5 inch cut across the top of her left hand didn’t bother Jackie as much; rather she didn’t let it bother her and sported it more as a reminder rather than ‘damage’. A Reminder that she wasn’t fast enough against her opponent and she’d simply have to do better during the next match. Just for that she refused to go to sickbay, considering it nothing more than a scratch, which it was in the end anyway.  
 
She had to admit she quite enjoyed the battle, it made her feel alive again. She had to wonder what was yet to come, but for now she had other things to worry about. Like dinner with Dan Taylor. She wasn’t entirely sure what to expect from the man, not after what he’d managed to come up with so far.  
 
With a light shrug, she rang the chime, preparing herself for the unknown; and as the doors parted Jackie was taken aback yet again. The Caitian did a curious double take as she saw Taylor clad in Starfleet admiralty uniform complete with Rear Admiral’s rank pips.  
 
“Well, you’re just full of surprises these days, aren’t you, Rear Admiral Taylor?” Jackie said cocking her head lightly as she looked him over once again.  She had to admit, he looked good in an admiral’s uniform; for a human anyway.

"You will find I am full of surprises this is but one of the many that will appear during betleH this year" He opened his arms wide "please come in, I thought I might actually cook for you today."
 
He stepped back to allow the Caitian to enter as the door swished shut behind her, "Now we've got a choice, I wasn't entirely sure what your tastes would be. Either stake, fish or I can whip up a vegetable stir fry"

"One of many? is that a promise or a threat, Admiral?" she asked with a light smirk, not quite sure how to refer to him now.  
 
"Heh.. you weren't sure of something like my tastes? I do believe you're slipping a little" she smiled. " Steak, fish, vegetables" she shrugged. "I'm really not too picky about my food as long as there's coffee at the end, unless you have something better" she half joked, but really if he did manage to whip up something better than coffee, she doubted she would be too surprised given Taylor's track record with these things so far. "what are your tastes like?" she inquired

Dan laughed as he said "All of the above!"
 
"But I do like a nice piece of steak I have to say" He smiled once more "And Jackie, please call me Dan. We're the same rank, we are peer's, even if I'm not necessarly in the same Chain of Command as you"
 
"Now, as I said. The decision is yours, what are we eating?"

K'Hare used the computer and a PADD to find Taylor's room and rang the chime.   Tapping his foot unconscicously, he waited for the door to open.

Dan turned to face the door as it chimed, his head flicked back to Jackie as confusion reigned within his brain. Since Jackie had arrived he wasn't expecting anyone else.
 
"Excuse me Jackie" he said as he walked over to the door, as it slid back he exlaimed "K'Hare!"

The Caitian was about to reply when the chime sounded, Jackie's reply would have to wait until he found out who was at the door. She nodded lightly as he went to answer the door, Jackie's ears flickered lightly as Dan said the name of the arrival.  
 
She turned, coming into view of the two males.  
 
"K'Hare totlh" she nodded lightly in a manner of greeting, pronouncing the phrase with a slight hint of a Caitian accent. Jackie had to wonder what brought the Klingon here, but that would either wait or get answered in the next few moments. Either way Jackie was curious to see the Klingon here and now.

K'Hare stepped in a few steps and suddenly stopped short.  "Oh... I didn't realize we would have a third.  Jackie, TFCO of 58 I assume?"
 
K'Hare seemed in a better mood then he had been earlier.

Jackie nodded.
 
"Indeed." she said, curious he used her first name, but she didn't really mind considering things.  
 
She watched the Klingon for a few moments, recalling her encounter with toreQ; betting that things were about to get more interesting with the totlh's arrival.

Dan laughed "No K'Hare your the third, didn't I tell you I was treating Jackie to dinner tonight?" he laughed "Not that it matters, if you can stomach Human food that is"

K'Hare looked serious.  "You are going to cook it... aren't you?"
 
He frowned.  "I can tolerate it... as long as its still got some blood in it."  Then he sat in the other chair smiling and looked around, wondering where Dan would sit.

Jackie watched the exchange with high curiousity, slightly amused at the 'banter' of sorts between the human and the Klingon.  
 
"Is his cooking that bad?" she inquired, slightly raising her eyebrow noticing K'Hare's frown at the mention of Dan cooking.

Dan gave K'Hare a mock glare "He wouldn't know I've never cooked for him"
 
He turned to smile to Jackie "But I think it will be the steak since K'Hare has arrived" he glanced back to K'Hare "if he can pay for his meal, no uninvited guest should turn up empty handed" he winked to Jackie as spoke as if he knew something she didn't. He didn't of course, but he had a gut feeling K'Hare would prove him right.

"I left it outside the door.  I wanted to see how long it would be before you asked."  He looked over at Jackie.  "I am trying to teach him to be more bold, more blunt.  This is something humans have problem with.  As to the cooking, it isn't his cooking, it is any cooking.  Such an act takes all the flavor from the meat.  I would have expected the caitian to enjoy live food too."
