Talion spoke up from the group,
"Although I also suggest the ship as a place for you to be able to refresh yourself and give us a proper debriefing, if you feel that might send the wrong message to the people here," he glanced around the room again, "then perhaps we might seek out a place you feel is more appropriate for such a conversation."
He deliberately then gave a look to the Captain that reflected concern as he reached up and briefly scratched once right below his ear, trying to indicate that they were being monitored.
Daniel noticed the indication from Alex confirming his own thoughts.
CSO then offered, "Although, a visit to the ship would also allow us a moment to let medical give him an official scan, so that it might put the Federation more at ease about his assignment here while we assist in the situation. The Ambassador has worked long and hard at this assignment and it would seem a shame to let all of that time and effort be overlooked and for someone to start over without at least a good handoff to the next person to take up his noble task. The decade of trust and rapport that he has established is a very important element in a diplomatic process like this."
With a professional smile, he then turned to the Ambassador, "What the Captain said about our ship is true. Perhaps you might at least enjoy a good meal while you help us to understand how we can best help you, Ambassador. You certainly have earned a small taste of home before we get down to the business of how to best be of service to you here. We will most certainly help you to resolve the questions about the replacement they sent."
The Ambassadors eyes softened as he replied,
“Perhaps another time, Captain. If I leave Riani now, I may not come back. There’s a lot of resistance toward off-worlders, especially among Tanndi’s organized crime families. If word gets out that the Federation has left the planet’s surface, they may push to close the borders once and for all. President Khushku has been able to keep things civil up to this point, but her position is more tenuous than ever.
“Still, your science officer makes an excellent point, I think we should continue this discussion over a meal. There’s a wonderful restaurant less than a kilometer from here. Only a few Federation citizens have had the opportunity to sample Riani cuisine.”
Daniel nodded in agreement, "Yes, I did mention to your friendly neighbors we might take a chance at some shore leave... lets go for a meal to celebrate your ten years here Ambassador."
As the Ambassador lead the way out the office Commander Kurasa came alongside him and said quietly,
"The bridge is aware that we might be going out and I have initiated a rescue protocol should this go badly."
Dan replied just as quietly,
"I certainly hope it won't come to that but it's good to know back up is available."
