Re: TPD Station Brilliance
The Admiral furrowed his brow for a moment and took another few swipes, bringing up a list of medical personnel and supply. "Medical personnel shouldn't be a problem. While our military forces are stretched thin, many civilians are willing to do their part." A red line among all the green ones stood out, turning his furrowed brow into a full-on frown. "Strange. There is a Garikian doctor on the station, listed for a questionable past." His eyes dart over to Nadia. "Says here he was part of the Black Suns, but has cut ties. Has some experience as a combat medic." Nadia hissed underneath her veil. "If he patched up those bastards..." She shook her head and faced Maria directly. "The Black Suns are a fascist organization and insurgents. As your future Commanding Officer," she said, answering Draven's question, "I'd rather not have one of them on board, reformed or not, but ultimately the choice is up to you. Other combat medics could be hard to come by."
Once more, Finster drew their attention. "This is all the time we have for now. Lady Hrrrthu can answer all other questions you may have. So!" He stood straighter, looking everybody in the eyes one after the other. "You have an idea what you're up against. You know the dangers, and you know that wealth lies in your future if you choose to face them. If you want to back out, do so now. Otherwise, please plant your hand here," he motions towards the screen on his desk, "and state your name to sign the contract." This was the decisive moment. If they signed up, they would be in for the long run.

After a moment of hesitation, Fletch was the first to step up. Laying down his massive paw onto the screen, he said "Jonas Fletcher" and turned, leaving the office to wait outside for Maria. The characteristic, drawn-out bark of Lemmy greeted him, followed shortly by the bulk of the runner as he rubbed against his legs. "'s Alright, boy. Jared didn't do anything stupid, did he," he asked loudly, glaring at the hook-nosed soldier, receiving nothing but a glare in return.
