Osman is sitting in her private mess hall with Rotek as they speak.
Osman: you sure you will be ok with this then?
Rotek: yes my dear I assure you this assignment will give me a distraction and take my mind off of current events. Besides I could use with a little bit of a challenge.
Osman: then you and bridger can leave as soon as you both are ready.
Rotek: so how did your little run in with section 31 go.
Osman: how did you hear about that?
Rotek: let’s just say I have my sources for that kind of information. I hope they won’t be a problem.
Osman: no I don’t think they will be.
Rotek: good the fewer people we have to worry about at this point the better.
He refills both their drinks as they continue
Osman: do you think we did the right thing?
Rotek: which decision bothers you more.
Osman: what do you mean.
Rotek: the decisions to launch the torpedoes or the fact that they want and are for all intents covering it up.
Osman: I guess both.
Rotek: sadly my dear conflict was inevitable. The bigger issue is taking responsibility for ones actions. Something the republic seems unwilling to do. The UNSC knows what was going on wether they know directly or not is still unknown and from what I have been told the federation is reaching out to try to help them discover what really happened.
Osman: I could have lived without hearing that.
Rotek: I’m sure you could my dear. The most important thing now since the decision has already been made it seems is what will you all do when the truth does come out. Because believe me the truth will sooner or later come out. No matter how hard you try to hide it.
The two go back to finishing their meal as Osman is deep in thought. The two don’t say much the rest of the meal. Once done.
Rotek: thank you for the wonderful meal my dear. I will keep you updated regularly on what we find and learn while in UNSC space.
OoC: Feels like life is just kicking me constantly now. I was trying to help my grandmother furniture and my dad showed up, messing with me for every day I was with her and causing a ruckus because he hates I quit my job.
H Karen: Hmm? But why? It's nothing either of you two haven't seen before. *The slip becomes more obvious in this position* I mean... I'm assuming from what data I've read on Orions that you two have... y'know.

Karen: Really not the point... And just because Serah's part Orion doesn't mean anything.
I just don't wanna see that from outside my body...
H Karen: Aren't the orions known for their... proclivities? And sorry. I didn't realize it would be an issue. *she sigh and rolls off of Karen, fixing her top*

Janeway is in a meeting as they prepare to deploy a science task force to the remains of the Arcadia system.
Janeway: any questions on the matter then?
The commanders gathered all nod.
Janeway: good then head back to your ships we leave at 0800 tomorrow.
As most clear out one romulan remains.
Janeway: I figured you would want to talk a little more still.
Koval: you would be correct. I am a little concerned about this mission. 5 science vessels the Cairo and my ship. If something goes wrong we will be severely outgunned and outnumbered.
Janeway: I have considered all this and starfleets thoughts on the matter remain. Admiral Harper and fleet master R’tas have all agreed to make sure of the safety of the expedition.
Koval: well if you are happy with it then I will be as well.
H Karen: Hmm... *she looks thoughtful and waits for Karen to make the first move, knowing that usually when she makes it it ends badly for her*
*Karen smirks, getting a little cocky before charging H Karen, surging her left shoulder into her opponent's abdomen and wrapping her right arm around the leg and lifting it in a takedown attempt.*
Osman is walking down a corridor as atlas pops up.
Osman: what is it now.
Atlas: well I was taking a stroll through my normal channels and I came across something I think we need to be aware of.
Osman: well are you going to actually tell me or just keep it in.
Atlas: the UNSC specifically admiral Harper and his forces have cleared a federation science task force to enter and study the Arcadia system to find what happened.
Osman: that isn’t what I needed to hear.
Atlas: no I imagine not but I figured it was something you should hear sooner rather then later.

OOC: Just pointing out, the subspace warheads should have destroyed subspace around the Arcadia system, isolating it from FTL travel. That was the entire point of the operation.
Ooc: oh yeah that isn’t changing. They won’t be able to ftl all the way in system they will drop out just outside the system to enter it. But don’t worry as far as UNSC ships being able to get to Milky Way that’s all by by lol
Comments
Strauss: well that could have gone worse as first meetings go.
Harper: it could have gone a lot better as well. But yes at least everyone showed up and is willing to be a part of the talks.
Strauss: agreed. So now what is next?
Harper gets up pouring them both a drink before sitting down.
Harper: I’m not sure. We go home and make sure we protect our territory the best we can and provide for the people in our space as best we can.
Strauss: well that should be easy enough then.
Osman: you sure you will be ok with this then?
Rotek: yes my dear I assure you this assignment will give me a distraction and take my mind off of current events. Besides I could use with a little bit of a challenge.

Dr.Halsey walks in
Harper: ah doctor I’m glad you made it. I had been worried you had been at Arcadia.
Halsey: no thankfully though I had been on my way there when the disaster happened.
Harper: I hear you want to go and work with the federation team going to the system.
Halsey: yes I do. I’d like to see for myself what they scan and how things happened.
Harper: you know it will take awhile to get there. With out being able to use ftl and the affected area it will take a few weeks to arrive.
Halsey: I know full well how long it will take to get there admiral.
Harper: well then if you are fine with it I suppose I see no reason why not to let you go.
*Karen grunts as she struggles, before getting back and circling, panting lightly.*
