While Sam's attention was on Mar, Shep slid from his chair with a smirk. Dyson gave a glazed over ' Don't leave me ' look that only made Shep laugh. He leaned down and whispered to Sam. " LT, do you always have delusions of gradeur when your drinking? You couldn't pull those orders if you tried."
He went to the bar and waited for Mar. " allright, what's this all about? " He asked suspiciously.

"Well, first of all, Sam's right. It'ld be nice to know if you're going off and not doing what you're told because of your higher orders, or if it's just because you're being an ass." She takes a breath,. "Also, some Specter was asking questions about you and your buddies in Westvale." She turns and looks ar Dyson and Sam. "Some pushy guy named Travers."
[EDIT]
Dyson turns and looks to Sam, his face flushing... "Umm... Hi..." He fumbles, spinning his glass self-consciously. "So... what do you do... for fun?" He asks.

Sam sighs and smiles weakly at Dyson, before saying "Don't worry, Dyson, I'm not going to yell at you." She then shakes her head "I knew this was a mistake. I should go, I'm just ruining everyone's good time. Excuse me please." Sam then stands up, happy to see that she hasn't humiliated herself further by falling on her face and walks to the elevator with as much dignity as she can muster, given how much she's had to drink. She then presses the elevator button that will take her to the floor where her room is and waits for it to arrive.

Mary turns and sees Sam leaving, looking upset. "See? That's what you're supposed to avoid if you don't want people making you to be a villain." She scolds, and heads off quickly to get to Sam.
Seems Dyson had the same idea, though he moved more slowly.
"Come on." Mary says at the elevator to the others. "I know where there's a TV." And she waits, using the some-what Dyson as the far post to keep Sam from running away, feeling lonely."

Sam smiles softly at Mar & Dyson. "It's ok, you don't have to babysit the drunk Lt. I'm just going to back to my room and get some sleep. I have a feeling I'm going to need it." The elevator opens and Sam steps on it and presses the button to get to the floor her room is on.

" We don't mind" Dyson replied too quickly, then paused before adding " You sure you want to be alone, LT? i mean it's better to get what's on your mind off your bre.. I mean chest if you have someone to vent at." He blushed and glanced at Mar for help.
The staff sergeant glanced at Lynn's paperwork before handing it back. He leaned back and shouted. " Corporal Evars, can you take Private..., " he turned back to glance at the name on Lynn's paperwork, " Daebors here down to his quarters? He's been assigned to one of the new squads."
" Yessir." A pasty faced Corporal came out from the back office and motioned towards the elevator. " right this way." He led Lynn back to the elevator and down to the dormitories, through the corridors until they reached Lt. Fraser's room. " the officer around here tend to room with their troops, some sort of special forces tradition." He explained as he knocked on the door. " There's an empty roomtwo doors down we can put you in." He waited and knocked again.

Thanks to all the liquor Sam's drunk, she looks over at Dyson and laughs. She reaches over and pats his cheek gently and says "You're very sweet, Dyson, and very innocent." She smiles and says "I guess it wouldn't hurt to see what movies are on tv." Sam almost looks shy as she adds "It would be nice to vent a little with people who don't mock me or anything."

Dyson blushed more, but held his tongue until Sam finished. He glanced past her to Mar, " Where to Sarge? The common room down at the dorms?"

"Common room sounds good." Mariana says. As the common room door opens, she leads the way to where there are a series of couchs.
"Whatcha watchin'?" Mariana says to a corporal fixated on the screen.
"Something called a Terminator. Serenity's supposed to start, soon."
"Ooooh, ancient 2-D classics." Mariana says with a grin. "Thank-you, corporal." And she points to a couch for the trio to inhabit.

He looked to the man whom he had been sent to follow and guid him to his room, the Look itself was nothing more of a passing glance as he shifted his Gaze to scan one seemingly endless hallway before looking down the other hallway after turning his head one hundred and eighty degrees. he looks to the mans name and rank as it is displayed now, and marks the face for future reference.
After some time he brings himself to the stance of standing easy in his dress uniform and fixed gaze foreward, Clearly not having a comment to make and there is nothing about to hold his attention any longer he abides his time now to burning a hole through the doorway about a foot from the top with his intense piercing uninterrupted gaze.

Sam grins "Cool. Though Terminator 2 was better when it came out in 3-D, I think." Sam spots a water fountain and gets herself a drink in an attempt to start re-hydrating herself after drinking all that rye. She then sits on the couch with a grin and watches the movie as she undoes the braid in her hair and relaxes a little.

" I hate this movie," Dyson grumbled," it gave me nightmares as a kid. I always dreamt of being chased by skelebots after I watched it."
" Guess you're not a chatty one , huh?" The corporal shrugged at Lynn, giving up on anyone answering. A releived look came on the escort's face as he spotted someone coming down the corridor. " Hey Shep, have you seen Lt. Fraser? I'm supposed to deliver her new recruit."
The soldier shook his head. " I'm looking for her too, but I can take him." He turned to Lynn. " I assume you've been issued quarters? Dump your junk and we'll go find her." He ducked into his own quarter down the corridor.
Moments later, Shep came back out into the corridor in well abused fatigues and once Lynn was ready, he led him through the corridors. after a few turns and looking in open doors, he stopped midstep and backpedaled after spotting the others in one of the common rooms. He led LYnn inside. " Mar, I brought you a new toy. Don't break him until you hit the field." He glanced at Lynn again as Dyson chuckled at the comment. " Go ahead and relax, we're on stand down for now. You can meet the LT in a minute, gotta talk to her first."
Shep walked over to Sam at the fountain and spoke lowly. " Luietenant, can I have a minute? Alone, it won't take long." He led her to the hallway and pulled the door shut. " Look, I know I've been rough on you and kept you in the dark, and if you want, I'll ask for reassignment to another squad. " He explained. " But there's something you should know. It wasn't an accident I ended up under your command, I requested it. I served with your brother back when we were still kids out of Lone Star. Last time I talked to him, he told me you had made LT and that you were headed my way and to keep an eye out for you."
He pulled a tattered photo from his pocket and handed it to her. In it was a ragtag bunch of kids, but Shep and her brother were unmistakable. " I won't hold it against you if you want me out of the squad, and I know Smith will make a good XO for you."

He looked to Shep as he left then over at the Lt.
He remains silent and at the same ready stance he had been at when first encountred by Shepherd in the hallway, though now out of his dress uniform his combats seem as resh and neat as the day they were issued.
He finally lowers his gaze enough to look about the room, but apon seeing the movie on the Vid Screen he arches a brow and takes a few steps closer trying to establish in his mind key elements about the Machines design and structure. But once he established in his own mind that the design was flawed and near unsutable for military application he returned to his lofty gaze awaitinghis first encounter with the Officer he would be serving under

Sam's face softens as she views the picture of her brother and she touches it gently. "So, you know Tim?" she asks quietly.
"So let me get this straight," Sam continues quietly, though there is a ghost of a smile on her face, "you interpreted 'look out for my baby sister' as 'make her life as hellish as you can?" Sam hands the picture back to Shep as she shakes her head "I'll never understand men." Sam then heads back into the common room and approaches the new face "Good evening, I'm Lt. Fraser."

"Oh my god!" Mary says, sitting upright, and causing Dyson, who was passed out on her shoulder to fly to the end of the couch and lazily reach for a pistol that wasn't there. "It's a Skelebot!" She says in awe.
"Well, a crappy one." She adds.
Turning to Lynn, she asks, "So. You new in the squad? Oh, and don't worry about me. Dyson here turned out just fine." And she grins sweetly. "Have a seat. Serenity's next." She says, pointing to an empty place on the couch.
