(Arboretum - Deck 3 - USS Artemis-A))
Lorana: Frontier Day was difficult for all worlds. It has ignited a chain reaction, not just on Cait. The negotiations resulted in a greater diplomatic presence specifically in the sciences :: indicates herself :: and the commission of more advanced Caitian ships. My hope is that it will benefit the Federation. I guess, what I'm asking is if you do want me to stay a little more permanently, then have you got some offices I can borrow :: smiles :: I don't travel light, Captain.
MacKenzie stifled a smile.
MacKenzie: Sounds more complicated...
Luxa nodded, her silver mane bobbed around her ears.
Lorana: Yes. It is, but I'm optimistic.
They continued walking through the arboretum, the Captain seemed to ponder the predicament some more.
MacKenzie: I suppose the real question is where you feel you'll have better access to the resources you need...
Lorana: A centralised base would be much better for my goals.
MacKenzie: Now that I think about it, perhaps the Artemis wouldn't be a suitable place... What about Deep Space 224? An office suite with lab access... maybe even some staff scientists.
Lorana: Captain, that would be perfect. Can you do that?
MacKenzie made a mock-face that suggested it would be a difficult task.
MacKenzie: Oh, let's just say I know a Fleet Captain who could pull some strings... If that's what you wanted.
Lorana: Nice to see those extra pips come in handy for something. To have an office on DS224 would be incredible. I'd be able to fulfill my diplomatic duties as well as my scientific research. Thank you, Captain, I owe you a favour.
MacKenzie: Response
