Meanwhile Faval and Tel’eck finished up their individual reading. Faval helped....mostly as needed. It too was clear he was not too pleased with working with Tel’eck. Indeed if anything if he had the choice he would have sooner worked with the full blooded Romulan Captain then some ‘mongrel’ half-breed.
That said both groups worked carefully to get their assigned tasks done and at that safely and properly prepared in conclusion. After a bit of work the four were dirty but finished. Drudoc was the first to speak up, “..Lieutenant Fayth if you would care to check our work when you have a moment?” She inquired politely.
Sharah walked over and examined the work of the Captain and Ron’al. She was pleased. Ron’al didn’t like it but he had listened when the captain gave advice or corrected what he was doing. Maybe hope for him? or maybe just not wanting to repeat the work? “Good, these should do well. You can pack your tools and materials back in the crate and return them to the corrisponding locker at the back.”
Faval was more to the point. “..We are done, may we get this checked and I and my son be done with this to return to more important matters?” he stated. Casting a glance to Tel’eck who was cleaning up the last of the work and properly shutting the Frost Lily away.
Sharah walked over her face very stern. He might have a higher rank, but she still out ranked him. “There is no more important matter, Mr. Faval. Star Fleet is founded on the prinicpals of cooperation and understanding, and finding strong middle ground for cooperation.” She didn’t say it, but her words certainly implied that she was not pleased with his assessment of what was important. “Perhaps if you all had remembered what was important you wouldn’t be here,” she reminded him. She looked over the work that Faval and Tel’eck had done and she nodded. “They’ll do much better now. That’s excellent work, both of you.” They had done a good job and the plants would be fine. She would have preferred that Faval actually help Tel’eck, but he didn’t. Well tomorrow he’d better up his game.
Ron’al meanwhile stood with his arms crossed eagerly awaiting dismissal from his punishment duties.

“Tomorrow you’ll report to the chemistry lab. It will much more complicated. You’re all dismissed.” Of course she couldn’t really dismiss the captain but she was sure that Drudoc was okay with it. She had insisted that she and Tel’eck accept the punishment as well and Shara was in charge. It still felt weird though. Throughout the whole day Sharah made it a point to not be overly friendly with either pair. Especially since she’d actually shared a meal with the CO and Tel’eck a couple of times.

Faval said nothing, taking Ron’al by hand to lead him out firmly. Muttering something about putting in a request of transfer to the Captain as he passed briskly by. “..I guess I will see it on my desk tomorrow then Lt Faval.” Drudoc said simply as the door swished shut behind the Vulcan pair.
Turning Drudoc shook her head. “..Some people, Lieutenant will never fully change, no matter how hard you try. I do not take this personally, nor does I think Tel’eck.” She said to which her daughter just nodded in confirmation.
”..Ron’al is just a stupid bully. Maybe I shouldn’t have pushed things further after he smashed that cake in my face, but his insults to Dad just were not right!” She echoed with a sigh.
”..I know my Bright Star. I know. I am not saying what you did was right, nor wrong. Only that perhaps using more of the self defense moves we taught you to restrain him would have been the wiser course. Then going on the offensive.” Drudoc soothed.
