Harry had called Bervag into his office, he wanted to talk to him about final preparations for arrival of Empok Nor. They would be arriving tomorrow, he also wanted to talk about the re assignment of Jane Weston. "Thank you for coming Number One, care for a drink?." Asked Harry with a big smile.

"Coffee?" Bervag replied as he took a seat. "To what do I owe the pleasure?"

"I wanted to check in with you, been a lot going on the past few days for us with all of the evacuees and such. I also wanted to know how you were doing, I heard Lieutenant Weston is staying with the survivors to help them. Wanted to make sure you were okay and to say thank you for helping me with the survivors." Said Harry, as he through everything he wanted to say in one long sentence.

The trill blinked, but caught the gist of it. He nodded. "Glad to be of help" he began. "It has been a trying experience. With the search, and that tablet experience." He began. "It's a miracle I know which way is up." He smiled.

"Lieutenant Weston is staying with the survivors?"

"She hasn't told you?" Asked Harry a little surprise by this? He knew they had been seeing each other. He assumed that Bervag would be the first person, she told.

"Not yet. We were slated to go jogging later. Perhaps then" he said, his voice slightly depressed.

"I thought she had already talked to you, I'm sorry." He said. Feeling a loss for words, he sat in silence. Wondering what to say next. "she had mentioned to me, about wanting to help the survivors. She did not give me any further explanation or reasoning."

Gotta do what you gotta do" he trill nodded.

"Plenty of ladies out there, as long as you stay away from Charlena, is a good woman, but taken." He said in a playful manner. "Or you could try the longest distance approach, I guess you and Jane need to talk about. Enough of me prying into your personal life." He said. Again feeling horrible for bringing it up.
.
"No problem, Harry." Said Bervag. He felt comfortable with using his first name. He took a deep breath, To compose himself.

"Tomorrow I will buy you around at the White Stag on Empok Nor, heard its a great place to eat. It's the least I can do for opening my big mouth before Jane had the opportunity." Said Harry as the scene ends.

"I'll be there" Bervag nodded.
