[WildStrike]
Vyynd, thinking of checking up on the "Sprink incident" from earlier, decides to casually stop by Medbay to say a quick 'jolan'tru' to D'Tarik. Typing several notes about tr`Rekkohan's witnessed experiments on his ISD he steps into the turbolift as the doors open; then heads towards the medlab when the lift has reached it's destination. Upon his arrival to the Medbay, Vyynd stops his steps abruptly seeing the remaining mess within the lab, and Emni, who is putting instruments and specimen jars that have fallen on the floor into a sterilizer.
Noticing that she was no longer alone, Erien t`Meihan straightens up and gives the newcomer a curious look, "Jolan'tru. Can I help au?"
"Jolan'tru." Vyynd bows, his eyes still glancing over the lab, "Something happen here?" he slowly approaches the Erein and holds his ISD behind his back.
"Just an accident is all. Everything is fine." she turns back to close the sterilizer, "Are au ill rekkhai? Did au need assistance?" she asks again, crossing the room to pick up a chair and set it right.
Vyynd smiles and laughs faintly, heading over towards the Med Chief's desk, "Na, hann'yyo Erein, was merely hoping to talk with D'Tarik." He straightens some papers on the desk after looking at the top one, "Are au his lab assistant?"
Emni immediately takes the papers from him before he can see much of the top one, and puts them away, "Ie....and au are...?" she turns, picking up the scattered ISDs and puts them in tr`Rekkohan's desk before Vyynd could pick those up as well.
tr`Khaine gives her a rather approving look, at her wish to keep information secret, and answers, "Vyynd tr'Khaine." he bows once more, "and that would me au are..." he pauses to thinks for a moment, "Emni......t'Meihan..."
"Ie." she smiles, "Au have been reading the crew manifest, I see. Uh..." she casts a quick look around "D`Tarik's na here. I believe he retired for the night."
tr`Khain laughs at her mention of the crew-manifest, "Ie, lovely assignments here on a ship who's crew was half-eaten." He smiles back, then looks around rather upset at the news that D'Tarik is not available, "Hrm.....I was hoping to catch him. Perhaps I'll try back tomorrow morning."
Emni looks surprised at his mention of what she had dubbed, 'the blob monster'. "Au know about that then?" she paused a moment, then asked "And au? Au were on that planet as well? With the rekkhai and D'Tarik?"
Vyynd straightens up a few pieces of lab equipment and looks over his shoulder to answer her, "Ie. I went to the academy with them for a time." he turns back around and turns off his ISD, then tries to get the subject off his last assignment, "Might I ask au what happened to disrupt the lab like this?"
"Um..." Emni shrugs uncertainly, "Just an accident like I said, rekkhai." she turns away, "Nathing really."
tr`Khain grins and paces about a bit, then notices the cage. "Fvadt....don't tell me it had something to do with that cursed Tribble?"
"Na." still not looking at him, "I ...don't think so. Just...um...an accident."
He frowns shockingly, "Ah, seems every mess around this place is somehow related to Sprinkles."
"Every mess rekkhai?" wondering if that meant he had known about the hole in wall earlier, she turns towards him questioningly.
Vyynd says in a quiet voice, "Well every one aside from the ones Rylan and myself cause." he laughs to himself, then stands upright again answering her question, "Merely an exaggeration of course."
"Au and the rekkhai cause messes....?" she smiles, clearly not understanding.
Vyynd curses the echoes in such labs, but smiles humanely, "Na, nothing we can't handle." he looks slightly off guard.
Emni goes back to straightening Sprink's pen. "Do au....na like the Tribble rekkhai?" she shrugs with a casual air, "He...." she hesitates, then looks away again quickly "Seems harmless enough. And what kind of trouble do the pair of au get into?" she turns back to him, smiling kindly.
He grumbles under his breath about the Tribble, "Ie, he does have his laser.....errr, moments.... doesn't he." He laughs suddenly, "Na trouble." he explains, leaning against a lab table casually, getting lost in the conversation. "Just the two of us having some fun between assignments"
"Ah?" she grins, his relaxed attitude putting her more at ease. "What kind of fun? And what about D'Tarik? Does he cause mischief with au as well?"
Vyynd silently erupts in laughter inside his mind, his thoughts race: *D'Tarik being the first person to question.....the tone of her voice.......the look in her eyes......* But to her, he answered, "Ie, D'Tarik has spent a few good times with us." he embellishes a *bit* about D'Tarik. "But he was never quite the person to have too much fun in public."
"Ie." she nods and looks away, "He does seem rather.... reserved." she shrugs, trying to feign indifference, "Something about some one in his past.....but he doesn't talk about it." she finishes, growing quiet.
He frowns with her, "Ie....such a brilliantly insane mind. I'm uncertain whether it's better that he's quiet or not."
Emni casts an unreadable look at his remark. "Insane mind." she shakes her head disapprovingly, "Na...he's just...quiet." she defends him, "And shy."
Vyynd chuckles lightly, giving an air that his statement had been a jest, "Sorry, I use insane lightly with D`Tarik. More appropriate would be brilliantly eccentric."
Emni nods thoughtfully at that, "Ie...he does seem a little eccentric."
tr`Khain sits up at the sound of beeping from his pocket, pulls out his isd and looks over it briefly, "Fvadt....." he says quietly, then bows to Emni, "Erein, my apologies, but I must be....." he turns just as D'Tarik heads into the room, then bows again, "Jolan'Tru Rekkhai." he slides his ISD back into his pocket, and paces back to face them both appropriately.
"Ie...jolan'tru Vnny." D`Tarik purposely mispronounces the agent's name. Emni casts a smile in tr`Rekkohan's direction, then hurries to straighten something else out, trying to complete the clean up of the lab to please him.
Vyynd glares lightly at the Med Officer at the mispronunciation of his name, but manages to state in a neutral tone, "How are au D'Tarik?"
Instead of answering, tr`Rekkohan asks with an air of dismissal, "Can I have a moment alone with my assistant please?"
tr`Khain nods, "But of course, I was just on my way. Merely stopped by looking for au; I'll stop back later to catch up on things." he smiles, then turns to Emni, "As I was saying, my apologies, I must be off. Hann'yyo, and Jolan'tru. " he bows to D'Tarik again, "Rekkhai, jolan'tru...." and exits the lab."
"Good day Vanny." D`Tarik casts at the back of the retreating agent.
Now that they were alone, Emni suddenly seems unsure what to say. Searching for words, she turns away from D`Tarik, then says quietly, "I'm sorry if I upset au earlier."
"It's okay, really. I get like that sometimes." he looks around the lab and notices that it's totally clean once again. Everything in it's proper place as he had first arranged it. Even Sprinkles' pen is cleaned. He nods approvingly, a little gleam appeared in his eye "Nice job...."
"Hann'yyo." she smiles, bowing her head slightly, proud that he was pleased with her work.
"Now....hmmm......" D`Tarik mumbles, not quite seeming himself. Startling her with it's suddenness, he holds up a finger in the air, "We have much work to do on that pet of yours!"
"Well....we don't have to do that now, rekk...D'Tarik." she smiles again, "I thought...maybe au came here to ...talk to me?" she finishes with a hopeful note.
"I did!" he exclaims suddenly, "I love au!" he grabs her by the arm and pulls her in for a kiss. Poor Emni thinks it's a joke at first, then looks confused after he kisses her. "Now that that's over with...." D`Tarik turns away from her, "Let's start with that pet, ie!!"
Wondering if he's drunk, she questions tentatively, "Are au ....alright?"
Not seeming to hear her, he continues his walk to a lab table, "Computer access D'Tariks personal collection of genetics on file."
Emni takes a step closer to him, "Umm...it's kinda late, D`Tarik. Can't we do this in the morning?"
"True science waits for na io at na time!" he looks at her with his eyes huge, then turns back to the computer.
"D`Tarik...?" her worried voice questions as she takes another hesitant step, this time away from him.
"Ie my dear?!" he doesn't turn around, too immersed in looking at the computer screen that is filled with names of different species to notice that he is worrying the girl.
As D`Tarik starts humming some crazy, unknown tune, she answers "Nathing...." her confused, worried, and disappointed voice trials off. Suddenly feeling ignored, she casts a hurt look his way, then quietly walks out of the medlab.
