Gath gave a nod of understanding, "Yes, with rare exception, most people are more comfortable with females as security, as they tend to feel less intimidated by them. I want our guest to feel comfortable, yet secure. I also favor taking advantage of every advantage a potential adversary might give, so the more someone might underestimate your team, the better. If refuse hits the impeller, it is your skills that will make the difference.

He took another sip and then segued into an intake briefing, "Given your rank and levels of responsibility on this ship, there should be little that I know that you are not read into. My door is open, ALWAYS. If you need to talk, then I'm there to listen. I have a strong distaste for people that say what they think I want to hear, but I have respect for those who tell me what I need to hear.

I'm sure that you can appreciate the value of having it and not needing it, than needing it and not having it. I intend to conduct some training of our people and running a number of exercises to help them become proficient in such tactics. I intend for us to be prepared and that you will play a big part in that training."
Looking at her across his steaming cup as he took another sip, "I would now like to hear what expectations you have of me, and you're encouraged to ask any questions you might have."
