Breathing women are his undoing.” Urg said and laughed. Sven shrugged and said “He isn’t really wrong.” and smiled and walked over to confer with the other trainers. Urg looked at the group and then down at Astrid. “Justice, I can provide you with a security detail, if you wish. And something subtle, not a force of armed Klingons equipped for battle.” and he thought for a moment. “Although that would be a deterrent, wouldn’t it.” and he looked at her and winked. “But the offer remains. I know the Oed Police offered as well, but i wanted you to know that you… have friends. We, my House, want to see Oed thrive. And the rule of law is paramount to that.”

Urg, Lord Duroc

She shook her head ruefully and looked up at Lord Duroc as his tone turned more serious. His offer was a good one and she would be stupid to refuse, especially considering the unrest as of late. She could tell that he was being genuine. His concern for her was real enough to him that he projected it. Astrid reached up and touched the large Klingon’s arm. “How can I say no to that.” she replied softly, more a statement than a question.

She gave him a soft smile and squeezed his arm a bit before dropping her own. “You will need to coordinate that with the Chief though. I don’t want conflicting Security staff. And I would want to meet each of them so I know who they are when they are watching over me and I will have final say over each one. If I do not trust my staff, I cannot feel safe enough to be me and do my work.”

“So shall it be.” Urg said and then looked up at the trainers. “Get me the list right away.” and Sven nodded once and turned and left the gym. Urg looked at Astrid and said “I will send the list of candidates to you and you can select whom you wish. And I will speak to Karlson in person and make sure we are not getting in each other’s way. Once you have your potential candidates selected, we will set up a time for you to meet them at your home. You will have the final say in who works for you, absolutely.”

Urg, Lord Duroc

She was surprised that Lord Duroc moved so quickly to get the security staff issue settled. She glanced at Sven as he turned and left the gym. Like her, Urg obviously valued dedicated staff… or what constituted staff on his ship, a crew. “Again you have honored me Lord Duroc.” She took in a deep breath and let it out slowly. “It has been long since I have had a trusted friend.”

Rousseau, HotJ
