"I'm a complete professional when I'm working, thank you." McKenna snarked, then accepted his apology. "It's okay, besides the captain and Mengsk were there too, remember? I barely had chance to check her out more than six or seven times." she smiled while waiting for their drinks.

Flip chuckles at her response. "Fair enough. So we need to find some time for the three of us to sit down. But I think it really boils down to you MJ. I mean if you want a simultaneous relationship with both of us, do you think that you can handle that? I mean it puts a lot on you. It can become stressful I would think."

Tawfeek eyed Jessica at response.
"A deadline? That's odd," He said. "What's going on? What are we in for, here?"
At the counter, the bartender dispensed the drinks.
He then politely moved to another part of the bar, while the pair were obsviously having couple talk.

"I think I can handle things, Flip." McKenna replied, sliding the straw in the box and taking a slurp. " Come on, let's see if Jess will fill us in who the guy was."
Spotting Mengsk, she waved him to join them as she headed back to the captain's table.

Seeing McKenna coming back to the table, Tawfeek indicated to Jessica with a hand gesture that they would continue the conversation later.

Jessica is about to answer Tawfeek's questions, but falls quiet when she sees his hand gesture, taking another sip of her beer instead. Jess smiles in a friendly manner at MJ and Foreman and says, "Hello again."

He followed the group to the table and occasionally looked at the searches progress. the corporations changed at a quarterly rate in terms of information. But seeing as there was ships business he could look up blastarc's dirty laundry later. He simply grabs a seat and listens.

McKenna looked from Tawfeek to Jessica and swallowed," You two needed more time to discuss whatever the rest of us don't need to know, didn't you?"

Flip downs the new drink, he waves for MJ to go ahead and then follows without saying anything. He thinks, 'why can't we ever work anything out and get this sorted. I'm kinda getting tired of all this talking with no real outcome. It's like flying a simulator. Going through the motions and not actually going anywhere.'
He walks up to the table and shrugs his shoulders, "yo," he says in answer to Jessica's greeting, offering a short wave from waste height.

Jessica replies to McKenna, "Don't worry about it. I was giving the captain some information about a job I'm working on. You're not intruding."

Tawfeek nodded. "Nothing to concern yourselves about."
"What is a concern, since you're all here," he continued, "is business finances. Things might be a little lean, for a couple of weeks. I'm not saying we're broke, just on a fixed income until we get paying work."
He looked around. "We can afford our day-to-day, but, unless it's critical, we won't be having big expenses."

" Well, we already discussed medical supplies and I think we should keep that option open." McKenna replied with a shrug. " Good news is despite my best efforts, things are growing well in hydroponics, so we'll have fresh veggies on board. Hope you all like salad. Cap, why don't we pick up some passengers that need transport, or maybe a charter or two for quick cash? Back on Frredom I used to hear about settlers looking for transport to start colonies or something."

Flip sits down and shrugs. The three shots and the exhaustion getting to him, since he didn't get much sleep, "I'm don't need anything. Just a dest...dest...des...a place to go, and then we can go. ok," he slurs out. The three drinks catching up to him all at once.

"the doctor has a point."Mengsk adds, "I can guess most of us here have contacts with potential work." he looked up his email list to see if had any potential leads himself, "Fact is a ship means we can do Lunar and inner system flights, host negotiations for parties that need neutral territory and help researchers by doing orbital repairs on satellites or even place a few.."

"Could you imagine that?" Tawfeek said. "Hosting negotiations? I'm pretty sure we wouldn't have the space to house the bureaucrats, alone."
After som consideration, he spoke again.
"But, you're right. We shouldn't have to be too choosey. And no, McKenna, I do not have plans to knock of an ambulance."
He let out a sigh, watching Jessica, to see what she had to say, in terms of the others' suggestions.
