Ch 1 The Next mission

[Dome]

Richardson can't help but notice the woman sitting in the corner, as she walks out he quickly makes his way first behind her to observe her walk, then walking up along side her he says, "Hey there, I'm Corporal Richardson, I couldn't help but notice you sitting all quiet in the corner. Thought I'd say hi."

[sasqaricious]

Oh wow I guess someone did notice me other then the man in charge. Autumn then turns to the person, "Oh hello Corporal Richardson, my name is Doctor Autumn Santiago and I have been attached to this group to serve as the Doctor being recently transferred from Lonestar to help out. Is everything ok or did you need a check-up?" She asks naively having no idea of any connotation that could be pulled from it. She smiles weakly before asking again. "Actually I am new to this entire thing, is there a place to get food and supplies?"

[Dome]

"Check..oh no I'm fine. Well, maybe a little flutter in my heart, but think thats only from talking to a beautiful woman like you," he says with a crooked grin and wink. "I didn't know you were a doctor at first."

Thinking about her questions he says, "well for food theres D-Fac, we can go get some chow if you'd like. I'm sure that when we head out they'll have all our beans and bullets we need for this OP ready for us, but if you want something else we can head over to the QM."

After a moment he says, "oh I'm sorry you said this was new to you, you probably didn't get any of that, *he chuckles* well D-Fac is the dining facility, where we can get food, or chow. Beans and bullets is our supplies, that they will probably have ready for this operation or OP. QM, is the quarter master, or the place we can request more supplies. There's a slang word for almost everything here. If you ever get confused just ask me and I'll help you sort it out. So what brings you here?"

After getting his gear all arranged, Socrates went to the mess hall to find himself some food. He made a note to himself to remember not to look like he was reading the labels on his plates like last time.

He was curious, though, why Sam wasn't at the briefing, or what had happened to Trassk. He heard something about a combat injury, but didn't know details.

At the mess hall, after getting some food, he found a table, either alone, or with someone he knows, or with the other Dog Boys.

Autumn blushes at being called pretty but does not let that phase her.

"I guess food would be ok but I am not sure I would be the best company for you. I mean I guess it would be ok. If you can show me where it is, it would be a great boon to me and also thank-you for the translation, as you are correct I did not understand a single word of it."

[Dome]

"Well then you'll just have to keep me around to translate," he says with a wide smile, turning up the charm.

"Come with me milady, I'll take you to D-fac and get you some chow," he raises his elbow so that the doctor can take hold as he leads her to D-fac. [rand=171219918361432475346660381700313456273548238504868554164628481729]

"Oh, OK. If you are sure you would like someone like me to come and eat with you and you are showing me the way. That and I guess we will be working together so I should probably get to know at least someone on the team." Once they get to the mess room she gets the food given to her and then carefully separates it to make sure not one type of food is touching the other and then goes to eat section by section.

[Dome]

Richardson says to the woman, "Doctor Santiago, its my privilege to have you join me for chow. I'm sure I'll be the envy of all the jarheads."

As they sit he watches her separate her food and it makes him smile. "Doc, I gotta say you got precision that would make for a good EOD Spec. Not sure I mentioned it though, my name first name is Stephen."

[Renekin Skywalker]

Seeing Santiago and Richardson, Socrates decides to sit with them, to get acquainted with the humans on his team.

"Hello, sirs." He says, formally. "Is is alright if I join you two to eat?"

[Dome]

Stephen hides his disappointment at the intrusion. He was hoping to get to know the doc better, one on one. He looks up and smiles, "only if you agree not to sir me anymore. I'm Richardson and this beautiful lady is Doctor Santiago," he says laying it on a little thick to keep impressing the lady.

[Renekin Skywalker]

Sitting down, Socrates says "Thank-you, sir, ma'am." He says. "Unfortunatey, on the base, sir, your request cannot be fulfilled. Off the base, as I'm sure you know, we don't sir anyone."

Turning to Santiago, he says, "Is it because you are a doctor that you needed so many notes on us? Were there not files you could reference?"

[sasqaricious]

Autumn turns to the dog boy, "Actually you do not need to sir or maam me at all there Socrates as I am not part of the military chain of command at all. If you do need to give me a title Doctor would suffice." She tells in the kindest way possible, still not used to regular company or contact. "The notes I was making was in regards as my duties as told by the command of the station and files are always from a point of view that is not my own and probably not as exacting. To be honest I was trying to develop a psychological profile of you all.

She then returns to speak to "Actually Mr. Richardson I knew who you were based off the data I had recieved before the meeting. And to be honest I am not sure if I would have the temperment for EOD stuff as all I have ever known was being a Doctor. Uncle, I mean Doctor Bradford wanted us to be Doctors since our birth, heck from what I was told even before that..." She sounds somewhat saddened at speaking of this but got it out. She then stops speaking and turns her plate counter clockwise to the next section of food adn will not speak again until finished.

[Renekin Skywalker]

Socrates's eyebrowridge ruffled a little at the Doctor's description of herself. The thoughts going through his head for a moment were quickly suppressed. The mere possibility of it would be unbelievable impossible.

"Of course, Doctor." Socrates responded, politely. WHile she ate, he dug into the rabbit that he was given, in politely cut giblets. The humans never quite liked how dog boys ate. "Though it would be presumptuous to assume you are more exact than anyone else, wouldn't it?" He looked around quickly, making sure no-one was watching him question a human's abilities. He wasn't sure, yet, how the base was with him doing that.

[Dome]

"Doctor call me Stephen, especially when we are relaxing together like now. Well I was a farmer growing up, dad and the family still run the farm, but I always wanted to be in the military, defending the CS and pushing out the D-Bees. Thats what I long for."

[sasqaricious]

"Why would it be presumptuous to know my training and abilities. I mean not to say I am better then everyone but was raised and taught that I should do everything myself as I do not know the capabilities of others having never met them. So I put forward that would it not be presumptuous of you to assume that I am being presumptuous." She seems to be a little more confident now as if this is a challenge that she likes.

She then finishes her last section of food before pushing the tray forward and pulling out her mini computer.

She then sighs after hearing what Stephan says. "Maybe one of these days I will be able to call you that Mr. Richardson but it goes against everything I was taught to follow. And a farm, what was that like?" She stares at you with her eyes not looking at the screen while typing.
