Mission 98: Building Our New Home
Location: Tienn Homestead - Utgarde IV
Timeline: 1800Hrs - September 18th, 2393
Director Benice Gyce smiled as she arrived home, she was wearing civilian clothing which helped her get through her daily workload, she had retired from Starfleet to work with the Starfleet Criminal Investigation Service as a civilian but she had the same authority as a Starfleet Rear Admiral, which meant she had been given unusual breadth of discretion in regards to her assignment, head of SCIS for the Taurus Reach, she dealt with very few and she answered to even fewer. She answered to the Head of Starfleet SCIS who was based on Vega IX and she also answered to Fleet Admiral Heather Duval as well as Admiral Jake Yamaguchi. She did not mind working for either as she found them to be rather laid back and good at their work. It also did not help that she had worked wit Jake Yamaguchi before when he was flagging on the USS Roanoke and when he was the Commander of Independent Fleet Operations, a fancy title which meant the ships that many Admirals held their flags on, which were also retained for their personal uses. That sort of activity had been terminated with the signing of the military creation act, an action that saw a large majority of the Admiral lose a lot of their political power.
Gyce smiled as all of these thoughts went through her mind, she carried a small bag in her left hand as she went over to the large firepit which was being stocked with firewood, ready for the evening's festivities. The younger children would not be present for this but some would be present for the first while. The dinner, however, was something everyone would be present for.
Tienn Jaina smiled as she regarded her daughter's wife while she approached. "Hanyu Benice. Long day?" she inquired in a jovial tone of voice.
"It was," Gyce answered. "The hands of the Kosh do not stop. My work is never-ending and its also never dull either."
"Lovely," Jaina answered. "Everyone else has begun to gather for dinner."
Gyce's face brightened considerably. "Nice. Let me go change and I'll come right back and help with the setup okay,?"
Jaina nodded. "That sounds good. Tell Iteela that dinner is at nineteen hundred alright?" as she smiled at her daughter in law.
Gyce's face almost turned a deep shade of red without her even realizing it. "Okay, I'll tell her."
"Alright. I'll seeya soon." and with that, Jaina moved off as she smiled. She knew that Iteela would be in good hands.
Meanwhile, Iteela was lying on the bed, wearing a pair of body shorts and a slinky tank top with nothing else whatsoever, the clothing highlighted her body contours, she thought the color of blue really suited her but she did not need to comment about it or ask for the opinions of others. She heard her bedroom door open as she regarded her spouse. Iteela smiled as she looked at her spouse. "Hey... Rough day?"
"As long and as draining, as usual, nothing over major other than the usual specifics..." Gyce answered evenly as she sat down on the bed near her wife. "Dinner is in an hour... I suspect nobody will bother us as they think we're going to be having sex."
Iteela snorted, the statement by itself was simply that laughable before she sat up. "Perhaps..." she commented. "But I know your preferences on the matter, you don't like me pinning you when you just get in from work. You prefer to wait a while and I'm okay with this." as she smiled. "Go shower and we can relax before dinner starts..."
Gyce rose to her feet as she began taking her clothes off before she moved into the bathroom and was gone. Iteela closed her eyes and lay back down on the bed, what seemed like a moment later she opened her eyes to see her spouse back in front of her, now fully clothed wearing civilian clothing. "You were asleep," Gyce explained. "I opted to not bother you about things."
"Thank you," Iteela answered with a wide smile on her lips as she sat up, she then hauled herself out of the bed. "Time to prepare for dinner," she added as she began to change out of her slinky getup and into some real clothing. Within minutes she was wearing a dark grey sweatshirt and a pair of black jeans, with a simple pair of white socks. "Hows this.?"
"Looks great," Gyce answered with a smile. "Come on, we'll surprise then with being thirty minutes early as they think we're probably having sex." the older female commented evenly, she led the way out of the bedroom and Iteela followed in silence.
