Rovan turned to view the presence that had appeared beside him, and found himself looking into the dark eyes of a scarred Caitian, and a Lieutenant Commander ranked Caitian at that. At the greeting, Rovan nodded and smiled ever so slightly at the use of his name and the clear dropping of rank for both him and this Nightstalker. That could only mean that the Officer knew him, or of him somehow, and that meant Intelligence perhaps rather than ships business.

“Thank you for the welcome, Lieutenant Commander” Rovan replied, noting the others rank in his reply. “You don’t quite look like the Chief Engineer, Sir. Unless I was looking at out of date department files.” He grinned momentarily, showing the jest was just that. “Do we know each other Sir? Forgive me if I fail to make the connection.”

Meanwhile, Orvos stood a distance off out of the way with his arms crossed as he observed their interactions. Stark was probably the closest to Orvos. Well, closest as in the caitian had been through hell and back with him. And vice versa. There were…others…he was beginning to find himself close to. Too close? Not close enough? He kept the thoughts of her in the back of his mind as hoped something comical might unfold before him.

Stark smiled lazily showing sharp canines in the process, “Connection is what this is all about Rovan Moor. It’s my custom to check over every new assignment to the Athena and meet them in person. I believe in the “personal touch” and getting to know people face to face. In your case however I have a slightly selfish motivation that goes beyond my purview of intelligence gathering. I frequently find myself in difficult situations that require a good pilot and you Rovan Moor would be someone I believe I could count on when next I find myself in a “difficult situation”“. Stark waited for the Ktarian’s reply interested in what he would make of such an offer.

“Intelligence gathering.” Rovan said, although it wasn’t a question despite the tone used. “Ahh. In that case Commander you don’t want a good pilot, you can find a good pilot on every deck of this ship. You want the best pilot, and that’s me.” Rovans own yellow, catlike eyes looked frankly into the unusual black of the Caitian Intelligence Officer, “I’m guessing that my qualifications in both Security and Engineering would be helpful?” As well as his recent mission which this Nightstalker may or may not have read the debrief on, if his clearance was high enough of course Rovan considered.

From Rovans own experience, those, ‘difficult situations’ normally arose after or during the fact, not en-route, meaning that this Intelligence Officer might need someone to count on more directly, rather than as a simple taxi. The smile that appeared on Rovans face was slight, but his eyes grew dangerous. “If you find yourself in need of someone to count on, Commander, you know where to find me.”
