== NPC Lt(JG) Gath ==
After hearing the orders of his FO, Gath simply responded, "Of course, Commander."
The Fo appeared to have dismissed him, so he stepped to the side. Seeing LCdr Kurasa, he stepped respectfully off to the side of where she was trying to converse with one of the Cardassians. He remained at Parade Rest and gave them their space until she was done. once she had finished, he would inquire about further orders, a debrief, or an After Action Report.
== NRC Cindy Talion ==
Cindy knew she had perhaps overstepped her bounds by talking to the Cardassian, but she had hoped that by getting his attention, he might talk more and shout less. After all, this was a Sickbay and there were injured being treated. Leave it to a Cardassian to think that everything was about THEM. Fortunately, medical staff quickly responded and took charge. Cindy was a little puzzled that Reddington suggested she be checked out by the Doctor before departing. For just a second, she pondered that. Was he trying to make a joke? Maybe he had not been aware that she wasn't human. She did intentionally look like a human member of the crew, so that was understandable. Her interface subroutines determined the appropriate expressions and body language as she replied to him, "I will. Thanks."
Cindy would not be checking in with the Doctor, as that would be a waste of their valuable time, but her words were intended to be polite and it was what was expected, if she were human. Reddington would then go about his duties and it would waste less of his time as well. If she were to have anyone check her out, it would be Engineering, but the likelihood of any of them being able to assist her was slim. Lt Thorn understood her systems, but wasn't really qualified to do much about any repairs. Fortunately, Cindy's own systems were capable of handling what damage she received. Her diagnostics indicated minimal damage. There were only a couple of components compromised, the rest was structural and all of it was within the margins for safety. It might take a couple of days for the repairs to be 100% complete, but there would be no degradation in her performance.
As she was turning to walk away, LCdr Kurasa approached. It appeared that she wanted to get a moment with the Cardassian as well. They exchanged the customary body language that said everything they needed to. Cindy had nodded in return, adding the customary single word of acknowledgement, "Commander..." The two knew each other like family, but this was a public moment, on duty, and in front of a rather rude Cardassian. She knew when to separate the personal from the professional and this moment was one of those where it needed to be kept very professional.
Seeing Gath take up a position at a distance, Cindy joined him. She understood the logic involved and had even had to teach it to a number of cadets in the past. They were part of the Away Team. Kurasa was in charge of that team. They had returned to the ship, but it was still unclear if their duties were complete or not. For all they knew, they might be returning. Cindy and Gath would wait to be officially dismissed or given new orders before simply taking it upon themselves to decide they were going to do something else. They weren't done until they were told they were done.
