[OOC: Jay is obviously not yet ready to post yet, so we'll continue on and if he wishes to continue this conversation we'll deal with it in a sidebar thread.]
The discussion goes on for a couple of hours during which it is revealed that Lt Xelox's nickname is "Fast Billy" due to the speed of his right jab. He's a boxer, trained by his grandfather, an old-time "Mustache Pete". Billy developed an interest in history and sociology, and this became his specialty. He went to Starfleet Academy and graduated as a science officer specialising in sociology, with a security secondary.
After the conversation, Jon finds himself falling asleep in his chair and his arm is throbbing. Lt Avalon, the new Security Chief tells them they'll be joining Ambassador Worf's security detail after they get some sleep.
In the morning, the swelling has gone down on Jon's forearm and Dr. Adonidas gives him a hypospray with an analgesic should the pain return.
"Don't be surprised if your arm goes a bit numb when you use the hypo—it won't affect your use of the arm and has no sedative side-effects," she tells him.
The team is quickly brought up on the situation in
BortaS City—there is still sporadic rioting and a few fires, none of which have gotten out of hand. They are all issued security armour, phaser rifles and hardened tricorders. Cdrs K'Pok and Vaughn are still recovering, but Lt Swann is freshly returned from her TDY assignment. She is armed with her beloved TR-116 sniper rifle which has been outfitted with a heads-up tricorder unit.
Returning to the station-keeping position over
veng BortaS in the
Thames, they beam down, again leaving Sonam manning the runabout. Worf is waiting for them in one of the Klingon battlecruiser's old briefing rooms. Klaang is also there, but Dr. KeH'lef is nowhere to be seen.
