“That’s part of the plan, a lot of the plan is sifting through data relaying it and so forth. I do run passive scans at all times for any technology that matches the Syndicate’s signals as well as data gathering of other issues. It’s not like I get to go on many missions, or send you on many for that matter… but it is one of my mandates to gather intel and disable networks they have whenever giving a chance on top of regular intelligence work.” Jack said he understanding that desire all too well. It had begun to feel personal in the attacks he had been enduring, and having been dragged in herself he could understand Faye’s trepeitidation.

Faye sipped her water and pondered for a moment. “Okay, so assuming you have already cleared this with the captain, or are going to, at some point when things can come above board and I can move about this ship again freely, we can work out how we want to handle this on a regular basis. I’m technically not on duty for the next while until the counsellor signs me off, so, in full disclosure, while I still have systems access, there’s only so much I can monitor right now. But I’ll send you an update on where we are at with the data security upgrades.”

She pondered for a moment how to handle this, but it was too important to ignore. “Commander, I do have to ask though… did you share with them that I have remembered something from my mind dumps? I just need to know where I stand exactly.” That tidbit she had dropped while she was in the brig was enough to make all sorts of hell rain down on her and yet she had already calculated that the odds of him doing so were slim. She had trusted him in a moment of extreme vulnerability in order to prove her own trustworthiness and yet she wouldn’t have begrudged him if he felt compelled to share that revelation. But the more Intelligence knew about the whole damn thing, the closer tied she’d always be. She was already in it deep, but she wanted some part of life to be separate. Just… something!

“Right now a few cards have to be set back right? If I find it a concern I will do so, but I don’t think we need to worry about releasing information we don’t know everything about. Hopefully we can learn more in time and you can make that call cause we figured everything out and it’s all under control… you know wishful thinking.” Jack said with a slight smirk.

“Well, I’m glad we’re in agreement then,” Faye said. “To be honest, not a lot of it has been useful anyway. From the few witnesses to the dumps, it’s been a lot of encyclopedic level recitations, so nothing to write home about there.”

Slapping her hands lightly on her thighs, she stood up and looked at Creed. “To be clear, I’d rather have nothing to do with Intelligence. But since I’m unfortunately tied to them anyway, this is probably the best case scenario. But let me know what Cochrane has to say. We probably should have a meeting about it all later anyway. Once thing are settled, of course. He’ll hate it, of course, but I think, hope he’ll see the wisdom in the plan.”

“Most details I will try to handle, but you will be giving briefings when needed… plus any missions I can’t handle… which as XO sometimes might be a lot, you would be taking point. Luckily we have made some friends out here in the DQ, so I have contacts to help us in many areas.” Jack said as he stood up. “If you have more questions, you know my office, and… we need to get that dinner.” he said with a small smile at her. “I am sure Celina would still love to have it.”

Faye snorted. “Are you sure? I might have been given permission and I’m sure you’ll explain that to her when we’re allowed, but I did fire a phaser at her husband to be. I won’t begrudge her a little wariness.” It would be good to get to know Creed a little bit better since they had to build some sort rapport if they were in fact going to work so closely together, but that didn’t mean she wasn’t treading carefully. He held way too much power over her for her own liking and that was a dangerous place to be in a lot of the time.

“Oh definitely not having dinner tomorrow… she will need time to process but… she isn’t someone to stay mad forever. We can work it out, besides you aren’t going anywhere now so people will need to accept…” He said as he took a deep breath as he made his way to the door as it opened. “If you need anything like I said, come see me.”

Creed, XO/CIO
