"I don't care about life... I just want the pain to go away. I want to do my job and make sure no one else suffers pain because I am careless or not there to protect them... and I will protect them with my life if necessary. I'm afraid of losing more and having more pain, and I'm afraid of always being afraid to lose what I have." She doesn't know how else to make him understand how she felt.
"I appreciate your companionship, I really do... but mating, love, transferring ships and the future... it's all too much for me right now." She manages a weak smile. She pushes her barely touched food away from her. "I'm sorry for wrecking what should have been a pleasant dinner."

He draws back inside himself a bit on her words, thinking that pain, loss is a part of life, but he didnt voice it, then shakes his head a little, thinking that always being afraid is not a good frame of mind to have. He looks to her when she slid her dinner away from her
"Surely, you jest. The dinner was very pleasant to me as well as your company. You have not wrecked anything, in my opinion. I only hope we get the chance to dine again with each other in the future". 'In a more private setting' floated through his mind, but he didnt voice that either. He held a little hopeful expression on his face as he waited for her response

"I hope so, too" She smiles again... a real smile. "I'm glad to have made a friend."
She hopes that they can talk to each other over subspace or something after they both return to their respective ships and duties.

She smiled at him. When Riov Radaik caught her looking at them, she smiled at Veralen. Veralen blushed green slightly. She felt her cheeks grow hot, and she softly giggled.
"That was embrassing Virh. Riov Radaik caught me looking at them and she smiled at me. I'm just really happy for them. I think its wonderful."
"The dinner is great I'm really enjoying it. Once we leave you can be sure we will not be dinning like this all the time. Did you ever consider ground forces? I did as a teenager. But then, I decided to follow in my families foot steps and joined the galee'"
She took a sip of her drink and smiled.

He would smirk, watching of how Varlen reacted when Riov Radiak looked over towards them.
"It is always wondeful to see a Riov happy. Dinner is always great. Although, I was hoping to enjoy your company for dinner more in the future.", he would reply to her with an enticing smile.
Picked up his glass and would take a small sip from it, but he paused for only a moment to answer her question.
"I didn't even give it a second thought. I always wanted to serve on the ship as my family always have.", he replied, then taking a sip of his drink.

The return of her beautiful smile put a smile on his lips as well
"I am very happy and honored to have met you and made a new friend as well"
He hoped it would blossom into more then friendship, but he knew that in time, it may. He didnt want to push it and decided to let Fate take it from here. Course, he had a strong suggestion where he wanted her take to take it but only time will tell
"I am hoping that when we return to our duties, that we may continue to converse between the two of us, in subspace?"
Again, the hopeful look in his eyes, having no idea she was thinking the very same thing. He waited for her response

She nods and smiles. "I'd like that." She appreciates his friendship and she likes to talk to him. She senses what he wants, but right now, that is too much for her to think about. What she needs right now is someone to talk to and someone to be a friend. More than that may come later.
She waits until he's finished eating, but she wants to ask him when he will show her around the ship on the tour he promised.

He listens intently to each word. The more she spoke with the same llaiir (fire) and mnashe (inspiration) as he remembered from years past the stronger his feelings grew. Rushing back came the first time their palms touched and the passion they both felt as their eyes glowed a bright violet hew. How he had hated leaving her, how he wanted her now, how he wasn’t sure she still loved him.
She was right though. Strong respect and appreciation of honor, duty, courtesy and strength; the mnhei'sahe (the Rihannsu abstract code of these traits and more), was essential to the proper order of things in a Rihannsu every day existence. A situation where ones values were different for part of the crew would be a greater challenge for the Dhivael because she was to operate and co-operate more as a lloann’mhrahel vessel then a Galae ship. Yet the thought that a superior officer could be challenged in public was very alien to him. Kholairlh-a ssaed-asi (Element’s willing) he would be assigned a Rihannsu executive officer and not a lloann’mhrahel one.
“I worry about how the crew will take to our ways. Right now I only have a few lloann’mhrahel personnel, but the High Command has informed me to expect more and to operate as a lloann’mhrahel vessel. I am studying the ways of the lloann’mhrahel at this moment. It was suggested that I get a lloann’mhrahel consular.”
Grinning he continues, “However if I make to bad a blunder maybe my penance will be to study under Khre'Riov Jarok for a bit. That would be well worth the mistake.”

Dan'lia smiled at Taev, "I would enjoy seeing the rest of the ship. You seem to know quite a bit about it, have you served of one before?" She took another bite of lydiar (salad). She found that she was enjoying his company. Tonight, he seemed relaxed in a way that he did not on the ship. Sipping his citrus juice he nods. "Le , Dan'lia I have been aboard a Warbird before. Back during the Dominion War." Slight look of pain crosses his face. "However tonight is a night of celebration, not past debacles. Pass the hlai. And when we finish you shall get the grand tour." as he said and finishes his drink.

Dan'lia smiles, and raises her glass. "Surely." She finishes her juice, not letting herself react to the pain that passed on his face. "Tonight is for relaxing and joy."

He puts his eaing utensil down as he finishes eating and turned back to Zandile, still smiling
"As would I, my a'rhea. I am full and would like to walk off some of that delicious meal. Also, As I am new to this ship, I do not know most of the ship myself. I did not take a personal tour when I was assigned here. Perhaps we can learn together where everything is? Also should I get the chance to visit your ship, you could give me a tour?"
He waited for her response as he got up and offered her his hand

"I'd be happy to show you around the New York if you visit there." She takes his hand with a smile and gets up, leaving much of her dinner still there. She hoped that no one was offended by her lack of apetite.
She is reminded of what gentlemen did on Earth during the days of 'chivalry' when he offers her his hand and she wonders for a moment if Romulans had a similar custom. She shyly keeps her hands to herself after she gets up and she waits for him to lead the way.

He turned and started to escort Zandile out of the Dining area when he paused near the Riov's table. He gave a nod and bow of respect for both Riov Radaik and Riov Cretak. He spoke to Riov Cretak, hoping he wasn't being interuptive
"The dinner was very enjoyable, Riov as well as the company" A glance toward Riov Radaik then one toward Lt Baccus "I have promised Lt Baccus a tour of this vessel and with your leave, i shall be on my way"
He waited patiently for a response

She also shows her respects for the two captains. She speaks to Riov Radaik. "I will of course be back for my duty shift, ma'am."

She smiles "Of course not. So tell me what is your captain like? what is his command style like. Ive always wondered if there are differences in how romulan captains command." ::She sits down and starts to eat.:: "Our Riov?" S.Gale is caught a bit by surprise, "I really don't know him well enough yet to form an opinion." She pauses to take a sip of the pinkish liquid. "From our first meeting, he is very firm and assured in his command; understanding to a point, but will definately not hesitate to tell you where you are in the wrong, and he won't be gentle, believe me. I know that he is a Rihannsu Comander through and through, and my other shipmates have a loyalty to him that is close to fanaticsm." but this is my first expereince onboard a vessel such as this. All Rihannsu vessels could be like this."
