Commander Torilla Unal nodded to Duval, she was wearing her normal duty uniform as it covered all of her features rather then act like a tank top, she also missed the belt with her knife but she had come to find that over the last week, she had not needed it, neither had anyone else in Noble Team.
Jeff Duval regarded Torilla Unal. "What'll it be Commander?"
"Just a couple of TLK's....wait.. Sorry."
"T.K.L?" Duval inquired. "Rations.... You want me to feed you rations..?" he tried not to laugh and while he succeeded, a smile appeared on his face. "Not gonna happen in here Commander. I'm sorry."
"The error was mine, for a moment.. I forgot where I was.... I was thinking of my new uniform.... I am sure my daughters are thinking of the same too."
"Considering what you wore was basically a crop top that was over-engineered to make the ladies look nice... Yeah it... It didn't suit you at all."
"Yeah.... Its still a lot to take in Sergeant Major."
"No need to address me formally Commander. I'm casual. You can call me Jeff... I wont be offended."
"Well.. the other version of you was.... Well you get the idea."
"Yes.." Duval responded. "I'm glad he did not come with you." he paused. "In any event.. your meal is on the house... what can I get you?"
"You are way too kind Jeff.." Torilla responded with a soft smile. "Just a couple of Pizzas... Canadian with a couple of pitchers of ice cold coke cola...." she paused. "Also. A pint of warnog and a forty ounce steak for Toshnarr.." she paused a second time ".... if you got it that is."
"Of course I do... do you want them hand made or... from a replicator."
Torilla smiled. "Oh hand made... how much for them?" as she went for some of the cash she carried, evidently forgetting what Duval had said a minute or so earlier.
"Your meal.. is on the house." he grinned at her. "My way of saying.. welcome to my home."
"If the version of you in my old reality was even half the man you were... that universe would be a better place." Torilla explained with a smile
"You are too kind Torilla." Jeff responded quietly. "I read the reports... you came from a brutal place.."
"Everyone here is... just so friendly.. they are actually happy to be here."
"Yes." Duval responded. "I can imagine how that would be strange. Let me go place this order for you and I'll bring you your drinks okay?"
"Sure. thanks... Jeff." Torilla responded before went over to join the rest of her team. "Okay... We've been here almost a week... Now what do we do?" Torilal sat down at the table where the rest of her team and family were located.
"I'm going to stick in for reassignment for something other then field work... I want to try my hand at Intelligence work... maybe on a Starbase... I wonder if this one will want me." Toshnarr rumbled. "I already met my duplicate and it did not go well."
"Sounds good. Stick your name in and find out." Torilla responded.
"I will... serving with you all... Has been an honor." Toshnarr rumbled.
"The honor was ours... you will be missed Toshnarr but... you will always be one of us.." as she gently placed her hand on his shoulder.
"Thank you Torilla." as he bowed his massive head softly to her.
Torilla turned her attention to the other three adult females present, all of them looked like her which was rather obvious considering the four of them were all related.
Selendis sniffed softly as she regarded her team leader and her mother. "I'm going into the Marines... I stuck my request in a few days ago, along with my service record and the like... I'm waiting to hear back from them. Hopefully it won't be long."
"I suspect they will want to divide us up and send us all across to the four corners of the Federation..." Torilla Unal commented as Duval approached, a server came with him as both were carrying pitchers of drinks. "Here you go folks. The warnog is for Toshnarr and the rest are for the rest."
Duval and the young female began dishing out the drinks. "Your meals will be out in a moment.." and with that the two took their leave.
Ouros smiled. "I stuck in my request to become a doctor, the qualifications I learned in the alternate universe should serve me well here."
Lasarra waited before she too tossed in her plans. "I'm going to stick my name in to become a pilot... I'm good at that... its what I know and I want to continue to fly.."
Duval came over with two pizza's. one in each hand as the same female server followed with a large plate. She served Toshnarr his food while Duval served the two pizza';s to the four woman. "Ladies... and Toshnarr... Enjoy." and with that the two withdrew leaving the four people to eat their food in silence.
