"Alright. Enough you two. My mind can't stand the tension between you two. Either find a room and get it over with or save it for when you two are alone and far away from me." Remy replied quickly. He looked over to York as he shook his head adding a slightly disappointing sigh. "You see what I have to deal with? In such a confined space, no less."
"I never said uniform," Jayna insisted. She wasn't sure trying on clothes would be on her list of things to do with Logan, but she wasn't going to mention that in public. She had to bite her tongue to keep from making a comment about confined spaces.
"Yes, I see," said Sam, trying not to laugh -- especially after picking up on Jayna's thoughts. "Welcome to the Calypso," she said. "I've heard a lot about you and your ship."

Thaddius entered the room with PADD in hand approaching York giving a nod to the new arrivals. "Commodore I apologize for the intrusion could I have a word with you for a moment?"
"Excuse me," Sam said to the others and walked a short distance away to talk to Storm. "What is it?" she asked.
"Ma'am. I've found something very peculiar with regards to this war. I've recently learned that both sides actually are receiving aid from the same source. So far it seems to be limited strictly to medical and essential supplies like food and shelter but I have a feeling this could stretch further then JUST humanitarian aid." Thaddius commented showing her the PADD.
"Is this the Ferengi?" she asked.
"No Commodore. Early indications are this man is a human." Thaddius replied.
Intrigued, Sam took the PADD and began to look through it. "Where did you get this information?" she asked.
"Intelligence isn't the only one with contacts ma'am. I've had some old friends on earth do some digging on this conflict." Thaddius replied.
"I don't doubt that," she replied. "But are they trustworthy sources?"
"I'd trust them with my life. They come from within Starfleet and I've used them before. You do a few favors and make a few friends. Not many people in the federation have much interest in these negotiations." Thaddius replied.
She wasn't sure she quite trusted HIM, but she let the comment stand. "Thank you, Commander. Keep digging and see what else you can find on this person. I want to know as much as I can. I may need to talk to this person as well."
"You might find it prudent to speak to the delegation in that regard. They may be willing to reveal the source of the aid but I will keep working my end. If you need anything more you know where to find me." Thaddius stated.
"Thank you, Commander," Sam said sincerely. His information was the first real break into who really killed the delegates and she appreciated it.
Thaddius bowed and left the room.
The doors to the shuttle bay opened as Max, in his black suit and tie, walked in bearing a smile on his face. "Lieutenant Batiste, glad to see you made it here in one piece." Max said as he approached Remy and Logan.
"Hello Max." Remy replied as he looked up slightly toward him, using a tone that wasn't all that amused or joyful. "Glad to see your out of uniform.... again." He paused slightly, raising a brow a bit as he continued. "Do you even own a regulation uniform?"
"Of course I do." Max answered, placing his hands in his pockets as he looked up to Logan, as if watching him carefully and cautiously. "I just don't like it." He added a bit of a smirk, focusing his eyes back down to Remy. "Now that your team is all together, how long will it take you to get to work?"
"I've been at work for a week now. I think the proper question is, how long will it take Grumpy to catch up?" Jayna said.
Remy looked over to York and Storm, thinking it was a bit rude for her to leave in the middle of a conversation with him. He looked back to Max, adding a slight sigh before finally speaking. "As soon as we get some info as to whats happened so far."
Max took a moment to think, running his fingers along his mustache before looking back down to Remy and clearing his throat. "At the moment, I can tell you that there is a chance Damion Wolfe may be involved."
"Wolfe?" Remy replied oddly.
"You mean the guy dealing with the Night-" Logan said, just before being interrupted by Max.
"The very same." Max replied, his eyes focused on Remy. "Which is exactly why you know and I know that his involvement in this situation is impossible."
"No, it isn't," Jayna countered. "There's every indication a cloaked ship is involved. That may or may not involve this Night of yours."
"I understand." Remy replied.
"You want us to clear his name and not reveal why he can't be involved." Logan added, nodding slightly. "We can do that."
Jayna raised her hand. "You wanna let the person who knows about the murders and the information here on the Calypso know about your little secret? Or shall I work on my side of the investigation with a blindfold on?"
Sam walked back at that moment and paused, waiting to hear the reply to Jayna's question.
"Oh.. Blindfold." Logan smirked. "Niiiice."
"Put it away, Logan." Remy replied with a sigh. "Yes, Jayna. Please tell us what you know and we will tell you what we know."
"I'd rather see it out," Jayna countered, giving Logan a wicked smile.
Then she turned to Remy. "Tisk, tisk, tisk. If I tell you what I know, you'll refuse to share claiming the information is top secret."
"Unlike you, Lieutenant, I know the parameters of my job. I share information as I am told and keep everyone on my team informed. The lack of information can be dangerous and get people killed." Remy replied, offended, taking a step to her and looking up toward Jayna with narrow eyes.
"Then I will leave you to Admiral Hunter and Lieutenant Mira to debrief you. Admiral Hunter has need of your help with a -- delicate matter," Sam said. She bowed to the group and departed.
