The nice mood and company made Vitor feel very much at ease. And after Nat shared her story, Vitor leaned back and smiled as he recalled the moment. It was as if he was back in Ops.
Silveira: Well the… Ensign… or Officer wasn’t holding any clear rank pips. And due to the alertness of the situation… So I confronted her, much to Ben’s dismay… Obviously something was wrong… I mean, who could she be? A spy? An enemy? A friend? Someone with a crush on Ben? ::Vitor winked before adding another option:: All the above?
K’Wara: ::smirk:: I guess reading body language from a distance wasn’t one of your core competences in your young age? So, which was it?
Cole: ::leaning in a touch, thoroughly entertained now:: I’m starting to think the ‘Silveira maneuver’ is just barging in with maximum confidence and hoping reality catches up. So which was it?
Vitor opened his arms and shrugged.
Silveira: No… It was Fleet Captain Idril Mar. She was paying a discreet visit to the 118 and let's say she wasn't pleased with my welcoming.... Thankfully I hadn't put her under arrest or anything more serious... You have no idea what a dress down from a Fleet Captain feel's like. Not as bad as Captain MacKenzie, but let's say I almost felt the air of the airlock…
Tamio chuckled slightly as Vitor faked an embarrassed look, denounced by his wide smile.
Cole: ::barking out a laugh before she could stop herself:: Oh, that is spectacular. Please tell me you tried to recover and only made it worse.
K’Wara: I’d need a few more drinks for that to happen.
Before Vitor could reply a chime rang and he arched an eyebrow. Tamio looked up.
K’Wara: Time for me to switch tables.
Cole: Oh, you’re leaving us?
Vitor opened his arms, surprised.
Silveira: But we were having such fun… Is this scheduled or something?
K’Wara: The Soirrées are usually set up so that every new Flirter gets paired up with a more Veteran one, who’s attended these things a couple of times at least. ::winks at the both of them:: I was your Veteran. ::stands from their seat:: It was a pleasure talking with both of you, in a more informal setting.
Cole: A pair of familiar faces has made this… easier. ::genuine smile:: Thank you.
Vitor nodded and smiled at Tamio.
Silveira: Tamio it was truly a pleasure. Thank you so much for this.
Tamio bowed to them with a flourish and a coy smirk, before leaving the table behind.
Vitor raised his glass and shrugged at Nat.
Cole: Oh, I almost forgot, ::beat:: with all the chaos of the Karnack and Callis I, I got you a gift during our last Shore Leave. I’ll drop it off at your office the next chance I get.
Vitor arched his eyebrow surprised.
Silveira: Really? Thank you…
Cole: ::leaning towards Vitor:: If you wanted to make a break for it, I won’t tell anyone.
Vitor looked at Nat slightly puzzled, but as he saw other “Starflirters” walking around he nodded and set down his glass. There was a Bolian casually heading in their direction.
Silveira: I think you might be right.
Vitor stood and smiled politely and noticed Nat had leaned back. Rather comfortably.
He stood quickly and gave a final nod before stepping away.
Setting his eyes on the door, Vitor walked at a quick pace, nodding and smiling politely.
oO First thing tomorrow I am going to update my profile…Oo
Truthfully, it ended up being a better evening than he expected.
