Shione was concerned but managed to control her response to the rather bold accusation made by her young Ensign
“Oh, and I won't file charges against you for eavesdropping on me and Lt. Xardeen.” Chuckled Jez her tone filled with a mixture of confusion and respect.
Commander Kurasa's tone changed, and was clearly now quite official
"That is both kind AND presumptive of you ENSIGN. I was NOT employing my Telepathy, but rather using my 15 years of Security experience to read the physical and behavioral cues that I witnessed during that exchange. You claim you have nothing to learn from us. and yet here you are lecturing a full Commander on his assessment of a fellow Officer. DO you understand just how insubordinate that was?"
She paused reading the facial expressions of the young woman before continuing.
"As to the conduct of Commander Sothrick, I have known him for close to 15 years. and while he is very skilled in the use of his abilities, he unfortunately has some bad habits when it comes to where and when he chooses to use them. You claim that your actions on Gravesworld were justified and I will not dispute that, as I was not present, and your loyalty to your friends does you credit Ensign. And I am not saying that you should not defend them, however to claim that we have nothing to teach also is an assumption on your part.
Together Commander Talion and I have over 30 years of Star Fleet experience and I assure that there is plenty that you can learn from us; but you need to have an open mind, Ensign Mala. "
She paused looking for a moment at her friend before returning her gaze to the Ensign. This meeting is just about at an end. The Commander and I have some responsibilities that we need to attend to pending the arrival of the Command crew. I believe you have great potential, please don't ever assume that you have nothing to learn.
So; I will ask the Commander if he has anything to ad and then you should consider yourself Dismissed."
She paused and the added. "That means once he has spoken to you, I expect you to stand, silently nod in respect, depart and then consider yourself off duty for the remainder of the day.
So, Commander Talion, do you have anything to add, before Ensign Mala departs?"
