This should be moved if its in the improper spot - but time is right just not sure if this is just for arrivals. ON: " Since the federation lacked a proper klingon establishment the majority of the Klingons were located int he Starbase's largest bar, "The Leagion". Ta'pez and his crew had gotten onboard and settled in their respective base quaters and had gathered at the leagion themselves. There were many people there, and it was interesting to see the Humans being crowded out by the rambouctious klingons. Ness entered the bar, followed by M'Rek. Ta'pez and the officers of the meH'Haj were sittting in the corner on a large L shaped corner table. Ta'pez saw Ness and M'rek first and called out to them. "Over here." T'lai and K'vok had been already seated next to him. Ness walked over to the table, "Greetings, HoD." K'Vok sipped his bloodwine, whistling in between sips. T'lai looked up after sipping her blood wine and seen Ness. M'Rek's senses opened to the smell of food and drink as he entered the bar, seeing Ta'pez wave them over he started over there. "HoD sir." He ackowledged. Ta'pez nodded and greeted the large weHwI' "Tonigh we drink as friends and comrades, no rank M'rek." Ta'pez said. "Hey M'rek." T'lai called out to him. He looked to T'Lai, "Yes?" "Have a seat, don't be a stranger." She said as she brought out an empty mug to fill. She then poured him a large mug of blood wine. Ta'pez said. "Sit down, but before you do, roll that barrel closer to our table, I have a feeling the federation watering hole will be going dry on proper bloodwine." Ness also sat down, not to far from Ta'ppez chibikouryou: T'lai chuckled at Ta'pez's remark. He went and grabbed a drink and a plate of food. Then returned pushing the barral over easily. "The last thing i need is some petaq try to serve me replicated piss." "Tell me about it? The federation dunno didily squat on how to prepare proper klingon food." She remarked. M'Rek chuckled and grabbed a stool to sit on. Ta'pez loked disaprovingly at the food infront of him. "That cyborg at Klach serverves better food then this." M'Rek grunted in agreement but was eating it anyways, without realy caring the taste. jakethomasness: "I haven't been to KDB for a long time," Ness commented. "I say lets go back to the wa'pach and cook up some grub." She mumbled after taking a bite of her food and swallowed. "I used to be posted there when K'rahl commanded it," Ness finished T'lai looked at Ness with a quirk. "I've never been to KDB ..." She said. Ta'pez looked around. " KDB is a nice place, the last tournament was there and I enjoyed it, I even wisited the cyborgs bar" Ta'pez said " I hear he will be at the tournament". Ta'pez chuckled " I remember dragging a few of your out of the Halls of Kor before the start of the last mission." "I was only there to wait for the meH'Haj..." M'rek trailed off as he could not remeber how he got there. Ta'pez nodded, "But that place is going to the dump, put people like K'rahl in charge or eve K'Hare and surely there is trouble." Ta'pez said. He stopped in midsentence and yelled out. " G'TRELL, over here!!!!" T'lai finished off her plat of food and took a large gulp of blood wine. "So I take it.. you dont like this K'Hare person that I hear about often?" She asked. G'Trell stopped in mid stride and glanced over. Upon noticing Tapez she changed coarse and went to the table. "K'rahl wasn't a bad CO," Ness remarked. M'Rek looked to see the new arrival. He meet the womans eyes even while sitting and no need for either to look up. Ta'pez spat on the ground once T'lai spoke. " He is the commander of the Armored base at K'lach D'kel Brakt." T'lai looked at G'Trell. "And you are?" She asked the klingon female. he took a sip of the bloodwine and continued "and yes, I dont like him much." Ta'pez chuckled "Thats M'rek, one of my weHwI', you ll be facing him in battle, provided your blade ends up being the winning one." Ta'pez said chibikouryou: T'lai blinked. "I was talking to her, not M'Rek." She commented. If Verghese was greatfull for one thing, it was the carpetting that covered most of the starbases's floors. Unlike in KDB, at least here when his metal leg hit the floor, it was more of a loud thud than a clank itself. Looking up from the floor, he paused to see where he was. Realizing he was actually a bit lost, he looked around for some sort of landmark, or maybe even a turbolift to take him back to his quarters. Instead however, he found a large sign with the words "The Legion." on it. This must have been the bar they were talking about. What the hell, may as well have a drink. Verghese thought to himself, and walked in. G'Trell stood there and took in the conversation not knowing of whom they spoke she held her tounge and kept an open mind. She was never one to draw conclusions on anyone until she had meet them her self, It took a moment for her to notice some one had spoke to her. "I am G'Trell James of the house of Al'Vok." He looked at the others. "T'lai and K'vok of my house, I believe you have already met them, Ness my chief of ops meet G'trell " M'Rek nodded to the new woman. "What is your position?" He asked G'Trell. Ta'pez coughed a bit, "She will be leading the Federation personel onboard the meH'Haj once we return." "Yes good question, Please do state your position here among us." She added. M'Rek finished his plate of food as he waited an answer and took a deep drink of Bloodwine. "Since when are we having federation people on our ship?" T'lai asked, a bit surprized. Looking around the bar, Verghese realized that it was probably a bad mistake. It was crowded as hell, and all the barhands were pretty busy.....that was until he saw Tapez and his crew sitting towards one corner. Ta'pez said. "We are badly understaffed, and G'Trell will be leading a special team." jakethomasness: "What team," Ness asked. "Marine team." K'Vok grunted M'Rek smelled him before he saw him and turned to look. "Who's the Cyborg?" T'lai's glance drifted off as she examined the room around her. Her eyes then fixed on Verghese and her eyes narrowed slightly. jakethomasness: "That's Verghese," Ness answered "He commanded the Solar Bounty on our last mission," Ness finished Ta'pez looked up. " Hey you old fool, what are you doing here! I thought your batteries didnt need bloodwine to recharge?" G'Trell didn't miss the slight cough as Tapez anwsered for her. At least now she knew what her position was. With a smirk she listend then noticed everyone lglancing toward the door she shifted her gaze and caught sight of the new comer. T'lai remained quiet, as they spoke of him. She still wasn't too fond of him. uh-oh. This is going to be trouble Verghese thought to himself. M'Rek stood from his stool the stool creaking as he got up to get another plate of food. He returned shortly with the plate loaded with something unrecognizable. G'Trells face broke into a genuine smile and she offered a hand to Verghese. " G'Trell of Al'vok," Verghese simply watched as each glanced over to him. Then Tapez spoke up. In reply, he simply gave out a small smile before replying "The same thing as you are of course! Drinking and fighting, what else!" "Hello Verghese." She said in a rather darkened tone of voice. She then watched G'Trell as she conversed with Verghese. With that, he walked over to the table. Two females were seated here, one of them was T'lai and the other was one he didn't recognize - probably one of the new crewmembers. He nodded and shook G'trell's hand. "Verghese Siminway. Good to meet ya." "Seems like you are missing our 'briefings Ta'pez said in jest and rubbed his ridges. G'Trell nodded " same here." T'lai then looked over to K'Vok. "So how's your training going, K'Vok??" She asked him. Then T'lai greeted. him. Verghese had to resist frowning in this case, but manage to control himself. In a rather Icy tone, he replied "Hello T'lai. Looks like we meet again." M'Rek stopped by G'Trell and handed her a tankard of Bloodwine. "Drink!" "My training?" K'Vok asked, looking up. She glanced back to Verg. "Indeed it does." She replied. She then stood up. "Excuse me HoD. I'll return shortly." She said and left the table briefly. Ta'pez mererly nodded and whached her go. tt was made obvious she did not want to be in the same room as Verghese. The question to K'Vok was an attempt to ignore Verghese. G'Trell took the drink then retreated and left the two to their tiddings instead she went over to where K'Vok who was in conversating already not wanting to be rude she found a seat at a empty table and took in the sight of the people enjoying them selves. Turning to Tapez, Verghese simply raised an eyebrow and replied. "Well, sometimes missing a 'breifing' may just be good for our health. So, can I take a seat or would you prefer only klingon company? My batteries don't merely charge on bloodwine...they charge on a LOT of bloodwine you know!" He took note as T'lai left the table. Ta'pez chuckled. "Well Ness is here, altough i believe he is to sprout some ridges soon." Ta'pez relied. "So you are most welcome to come and seat yourself". It looked like she was going to avoid him for the entirety of the tournament...it wasn't exactly a bad thing though... T'lai walked over to the empty table that G'Trell was at. "Would you like some company?" She asked the other klingon. Verghese nodded and took a seat along with a mug of bloodwine. G'Trell looked up and smiled "sure" M'Rek watched G'Trell going over to K'Vok, barely paying attention to the rest at the table. The woman was... There was something about her." T'lai took a seat. "In case you're wondering.. let's just say me and the human there do not get along very well. We are better off seperate then together." She told G'Trell. She then noticed out of the corner of her eye that M'Rek was staring at G'Trell. "Looks like you have a fan-club." She commented. "So what brings you to XFY, are you trying to open another bar?" Ta'pez said teasingly. Verghese took a sip of the bloodwine. He raised an eyebrow and replied rather jokingly. "Only if you sponsor the money Tapez." "I am T'lai. First officer of meh'Haj." She replied and extended a hand to G'Trell. G"trell followed the womans gaze "Humans can hve that effect on some klingons i noticed." She took a drink then returned her gaze to her company "But I have no pregidece. Until they wrong me that is." "Well that one did wrong me. In the worst way a human could." She said with a snear. G'Trell took the womans hand "G'Trell Commander of the Federation troops soon to grace the meHHaj." "Its a pleasure to meet you, G'Trell." She replied. Ta'pez: " Well with the proceeds from the wa'pach you should be fine. My house has bought the rights to the ship from the KDF, and I have decided to turn the proceeds from my share over to the crew that participated, once the wa'pach is crewed and staffed as a trader you and I will start reciving regular income from it." G'Trell caught the venom in the womans voice and relizied the human in queston was on borrowed time. "I am not one to pry, But how did a human offend you so." M'Rek was still watching the two women with intrest but he did not go over there. This caught Verghese by surprise. A steady income from the Wa'pach would mean a lot for someone like him. Although starfleet and IKS crewmen would have little use for the money, something like that would more than be able to provide for him. "Well that human nearly killed me while I was held captive at the time." T'lai said. K'tar came into the bar andspotted the meH'Haj crew right away, by far they were the loudest and biggest group of klingons in the bar. Verghese quickly replied. As good as he was, he was still a businessman at heart, and couldn't pass out on this. "Thank you Tapez, maybe I will take you up on that bar." "Well that human nearly killed me while I was held captive at the time." T;lai said. K'Tar walked in. He would meet back up with his brother and sister soon. K'Tar had a feeling they were here for more than just the tournament. "Well, that wouldnt be very hard to do," KTar teased Ta'pez mererly nodded and laughed. "Very well. Now do me the favor and refill my tankard from that bloodwine barrel next to you." Ta'pez responded to Verghese. T'lai looked up as K'Tar entered. M'Rek was tired of just standing there looking he grabbed another tankard of bloodwine and started over to the two women. Picking up a mug of Bloodwine, he held it up to Tapez in a sign of respect, before noticing the new arrival. It was K'tar. He watched as he came in, making sure to refill Tapez's tankard at the same time. KTar looked at the cyborg as he grabbed a tankard. "A borg?" He sighed. Not that again.....But then, he was in too good a mood to care right now, so he simply shook his head. "Cyborg actually. No nanoprobes here, only your run-of-the-mill nanites and some solid titanium." As if to elaborate his point, he rapped the leg with his right hand. G'Trell raised a brow and looked back over at the human. "Well that will do it." G'Trell caught movment and glaced up at the man approching. "Looks like we have comapany "Indeed." She said. "Greetings M'Rek! What brings you to our company?" She asked as she offered him a seat. G'Trell took in the male fetures and found them rather charming mostlikey a mix of Hirgogen and klingon. She waved for anther drink then extended her hand to him. " I am G'Trell"
