I was never meant for such a high seat, Prime Minister. I did my duty for the Republic and the Galactic Alliance before, but I tend to try to keep my face... less out of the public and more behind the scenes work. The public can somewhat be intimidated by the eye-patch.Graemon gestures to the piece of cloth that wrapped around his right eye. He was definitely a strange one for not getting something mechanical like an optical eye as a replacement. Having been offered countless times by doctors, during his recovery, the Fondorian fervently refused time and time again. Valerian, who had been greeted by the Prime Minister, glances at his brother momentarily before turning his attention to Jacques.=Valerian= Prime Minister, a pleasure to meet you. I am Baron Gorgano's younger brother, Valerian Gorgano. I serve as the Chairman for Fondor's Guild of Shipwrights. My brother here has kept me quite busy on Fondor, so it is a privilege to get away for a moment. I can't say I blame him for keeping you there. When I arrived in system the whole of the Navy was in bad shape made up of nothing but survivors from Imperial attacks. How goes the work on The Redemption? Graemon took notice of how quiet Doctor Jameroo was. Maybe she was waiting for an introduction, either one presented by herself or presented by another among them. Graemon decided to take the initiative. He motions to Lynne, offering her to come up and join with those present, letting her into this small gathering with the Prime Minister. The Baron, while gesturing to Lynne, would have his gaze fixated on both the Prime Minister and Admiral Hargrave.Gentlemen, allow me to present Doctor Lynne Jameroo, Captain of the Endless Salvation. She is one of the leading doctors in handling the refugee crisis that we have been doing our best at tackling. She brought the people's concerns personally to my attention, something that we should recognize. Her initiative and dedication to the homeless and sick has ensured they are being taken well care of today. You are as much a hero as anyone here Doctor. What the Vice Admiral and I did was just part of our duty. What you are doing here with the refugees is far greater. Everyone wants to escape from the First Order and the thousands of people who are fleeing owe their current situations to you. |

Still blushing wildly as the attention was even more focused on her. But then she felt the strong hand of the Baron rest on the skin of her back and she got goose bumps. Giving a sly smile to the Baron she finally looked back to the rest of the party. She realized that no one was truly upset with her, but she was still red, for different reasons though.
=Lynne=
Thank you for saying so. Though I would still be stuck in bureaucratic hell if Baron Gorgano wasn't such a good listener.
She scooted surreptitiously closer to the Baron, so that he would be in a position to let his whole arm around her back. She also managed to snag a fresh drink from a passing waiter.
=Lynne=
But I have to say, with the crises getting less and less of, well, a crises, I'll be needing another task to keep me busy... and in such pleasant company.
She toasted the group as a whole but offered a wink to Graemon.

I can't say I blame him for keeping you there. When I arrived in system the whole of the Navy was in bad shape made up of nothing but survivors from Imperial attacks. How goes the work on The Redemption? =Valerian= On my arrival to the planet, I was able to speak with the crews dispatched from Fondor as well as other shipwrights invested in the Redemption's refurbishment. We were able to scavenge some of the technology utilized by the First Order, but no information can be gained... the archives are a complete mess and hard to crack. It seems these Imperials are highly advanced, given the state of this warship and the technology within it.Shame, so much could be learned and utilized if any useful information was found.The weapon systems are in place and being configured to the new consoles and systems we have replaced with any busted tech from the fight this vessel endured. We have gotten oxygen to much of the ship and have begun work on her reactors and shielding. It may take another year before it is fully optimal, Prime Minister.Still blushing wildly as the attention was even more focused on her.

Graemon acted as smooth as possible, like as if he had anticipated this. Surprisingly, he was good at anticipating fleet maneuvers and troop deployments, but not in this case. He was still getting used to human interaction beyond that of the professionalism he experienced in the military. Yet, his hand did not move and remained where it was as he quietly took a sip from his drink. To her compliment, Graemon looks at those gathered.The people need their voices to be heard after all. As much as I do not like the politician life I have retired to from my career in the military, I must do my duty and let the people be heard. Otherwise, we will fail like the Galactic Alliance before us. |

A hoverlimo pulled up to the estate, drawing attention of the news organizations that were assembled at the entrance way. Many curious as to which dignitary or guest had dared arrive to this event late, given the party was well and truly in the swing of things. As a security guard opened the door, Marcus emerged from the vehicle dressed in his usual black pinstriped suit. Giving a quick wave to the camera's before moving to the side, reaching down as a woman's hand emerged from within the vehicle. Sahra elegantly managed to exit the vehicle in a formal deep purple dress matching her Father's shirt. Her arm slipping through Marcus' as she gave a smile and wave to the camera's
You certainly seem to be enjoying yourself...
Come now Father... It's all part of the job. People need to be given hope by seeing those in charge smiling...
You certainly got your Mother's wits about you... Try to stay close...
Of course.
She gave her Father's forearm a light pat before he lead the way into the estate, passing through the security checkpoint. His gaze scanning the assembled crowd, before settling upon what appeared to be something of a gathering crowed around the newly elected Prime Minister of the Coalition. Figuring it was best to pay his respects to the man of the hour first, he lead the way across the party to the gathering. Noting the presence of Chase Hargrave and Valerian Gorgano alongside a particularly close Graemon Gorgano and Lynne Jameroo. A smirk forming as the many rumors he had heard flying around were confirmed. No wonder Graemon had been so appreciative of the FedDub's willingness to take in some of the refugee's that had been pouring into the Corellian System. Marcus came to a stop just to the right of the group, his attention upon Jacques
Congratulations on your appointment Prime Minister Hu... Allow me to introduce my daughter, Sahra. Princess and Representative of the FedDub to the Coalition...
Sahra gave a graceful bow to Jacques
It's a pleasure to meet you Prime Minister...
Marcus then turned his attention toward Lynne
And you must be Captain Jameroo... It is a pleasure to meet you at last my lady... Baron Gorgano spoke quite highly of you...

It seemed like Lynne would never get an end to her blushing as the leader of the FedDub addressed her directly. She gave a respectful bow, but not before a smile and glance at Garemon, as if to say light heatedly "How much have you told?"
=Lynne=
It is kind of you to say so, m'lord. And I have heard many great things about you, yourself. And may I say, Princess, you look incredible. Your dress is lovely!

The corner of Jacques mouth quirked up and he suppressed the laugh that formed behind his lips. I am sure any number of people could have told you about the sophistication. Looking around the group of people talking here more than half of them had seen the ships in action at some point. The sooner the better, I don't talk about them much but my family has access to a minor shipwright back home. It is nothing as compared what is above us now but I am sure I could twist their arms and make them help. And get filthy stinking rich off such a government contract.
Before he could continue he was distracted by a commotion at the door. It seemed that Marcus had decided on making an appearance and the room once more became abuzz. Nodding his appreciation at the kind words he shook his head. As I already said to the baron here, this has all been accomplished thanks to you. All the sleepless nights the two of you put in. This night may be a celebration of my election but I know the true heros of tonight.
Reaching out to gently shake Saharas hand The pleasure is mine... Princess? There were a lot of titles to be learned and although he knew that Sahara was a Senator if her father was a King well he wasn't sure which title to use.

It is nothing as compared what is above us now but I am sure I could twist their arms and make them help. And get filthy stinking rich off such a government contract. =Valerian Gorgano= We have been moving necessary equipment and personnel from Fondor and Tallaani shipyards from the Tapani Sector to ensure the warship is properly rebuilt for ship-faring status, Prime Minister. You need not worry. However, I must inquire, some of the new personnel for the ship have been making inquiries as to who will command it for the Coalition Navy. Have you given it some thought?============================== Your Excellency, its good to see you join us.Baron Gorgano remarks as he takes notice of King Starmane and his daughter.I am rather surprised that you didn't earn more votes during the election. I thought it would have been a neck and neck race between you and the Prime Minister for the position to lead the Coalition.After he had dropped out early, Graemon's removal voluntarily had resulted in the list of possible contenders for the Prime Minister position being shortened to a relatively select few. Among them being Admiral Hargrave, Marcus Starmane, and Jacques Hu.============================== Lynne JamerooAs the conversations resume around the Prime Minister, the Fondorian hears music begin to be played as people began to congregate nearby to dance. Courtesy of the House of Solo, a fine band had been put together to entertain the people tonight. Music was always a good way to add to the atmosphere. Graemon looks at Lynne for a moment before nudging her arm slightly.I haven't danced since a gala back on Fondor many years ago. Do you know how to dance by chance? |

Sahra smiled and nodded in response to Lynne's compliment
Why thank you Captain, you look absolutely amazing!
Marcus smirked, catching the look that Lynne gave to Graemon. He had seen that look before when his wife had been taken by surprise at dinners similar to this
Many great things might be a stretch Captain... I am merely a facilitator for those that lack the resources necessary to achieve something on their own... Speaking of, perhaps I might borrow you from the Baron's side for a few moments? I assure you, I have every intention to return you to it shortly...
Sahra returned her attention to Jacques then, as the man greeted her
Thank you Prime Minister, and please, feel free to refer to me as Princess tonight. Once the government takes session, then we can worry about calling me Senator...
Marcus conceded a laugh as Jacques spoke of Graemon and himself being the true heroes of tonight
I'd hardly call myself a hero... We all do what we must for our people, and for freedom...
He then turned back to Graemon
Yes, well, try as I might, my Daughter insisted we did not miss tonight... As to the votes... I have no grand ambitions to be at the center of attention for the Coalition. I have more than enough to deal with between Talus and Tralus...

Unsure of what the ominous invitation to speak with the King of the FedDub but she reliaced her hold of Graemon and nodded to Starmane. She moved over to where the man wished to speak to her.=Lynne=Of course, your highness! ============================== Lynne Jameroo As the conversations resume around the Prime Minister, the Fondorian hears music begin to be played as people began to congregate nearby to dance.

The smile on Lynne's face grew as Graemon asked her to dance. She took the Fondorians hand and lead him to the dance floor. Lynne placed her right hand gently on the back of his shoulder and held her other hand out with his. She waited to see if he was going to lead.

Sipping on a drink, Lynne listoned as she heard what the King had to say. She was very excited as the topic turned to refugee housing.=Lynne=Really? I do hope to help those people as much as possible. Anything I can do, I will. Though from the sound of it, Starmane could very well be asking her to participate in politics. Something Lynne had never been good at due to her brash nature.Graemon was surprised by how Lynne was more than happy to dance. At once, the Baron takes the lead.Well, whether you are very good or not, does not matter. It was a good excuse for us to get away and talk.The Fondorian smiles as he dances with Doctor Jameroo. After a few bouts, his thoughts were able to be words.It would seem we have confirmed a relation between us, wouldn't you agree?Everyone was watching after all. The rumors were already starting and, certainly, those of the media present were reporting this. Graemon wanted to know if Lynne was ready for such a relation with the Baron. He didn't want her second thinking or regretting anything.You ready for such publicity then?The Fondorian says, making a joke. My dear, I have had a Resurgent bearing down on my undefended Medical Frigate as the GA crumbled around me. A few reporters and their cameras aren't going to scare me! Are you ready to be so connected to the doctor spending her time down in the dirty and lowly refugee camps?

As the pair began to dance, Lynne found herself starring into Graemon's eye. She had always enjoyed her time spent with him and it seemed it went the other way too. But then her partner began to speak again, about their relationship and it's now public face. Blushing slightly as she glanced to the sides, Lynne did see many people stairing and even members of the press snapping images of them. Turning back to the Baron, the Doctor gave a chuckle as he made the prospect of a public relationship with him something to be feared.=Lynne=My dear, I have had a Resurgent bearing down on my undefended Medical Frigate as the GA crumbled around me.

Lynne was surprised to hear such an ambitious plan. And all to help some people who didn't have anything to their names.=Lynne=Well... I love it! Giving these people a chance to start over and thrive is what I have been working towards this whole time! Fearless as ever. That or stubborn, likely the latter, thought the Fondorian as he danced with Lynne. In truth, Graemon knew his brother, Valerian, would be having a fun time with this more so than the news. After all, the Baron's younger brother had always been pestering him to find a nice lady, settling down, and everything else that came with it. His good eye glanced to the side, seeing a trio of journalists talking among each other as their own gazes were directed back at the couple.I have long considered who I would be connected to. And to be honest, I wouldn't have cared if you were a civilian.Graemon turns to look directly at Lynne.And don't you worry about the press, sweetheart. They know better than to get in the way of our jobs. Then let them talk. Reaching up to the Fondorian's cheek, she brought her lips to his and gave him a soft and sweet kiss. Lynne couldn't help but giggle as his beard and mustach tickled her face. She pulled back after a couple seconds and smiled broadly at him.

Lynne sipped on her drink again as she thought. Adopting a playful, smile, trying not to imply anything negative, but wanting to know.
=Lynne=
I'm will to be the face of this initiative, but this all sounds too good to be true...

He smirked as she stated that it sounded too good to be true. Nor did he blame her for thinking that. After all, he was a politician with a bold plan that could change thousands of lives for the better. Things were never quite as straight forward as they sounded when pitched like that. He took another sip of his drink
You are smart to be suspicious... I'll admit that it is an ambitious plan, which is why I will be petitioning the Coalition for a small grant to assist in affording it all... And why I would like you to oversee it. Separate the policy from the politics...

Thinking on what King Starmane had said, Lynne swirled the liquid in her glass.
=Lynne=
That sounds like quite the task to hand over to a doctor/captain. Even if I am a more inspiring figure, surely their are people more qualified to lead this initiative?

She kept her eyes on him as he spoke to her. But once he stopped a sly smile formed on her face, and she gave a knowing look to the journalists, she turned back to Graemon.=Lynne=Then let them talk. Reaching up to the Fondorian's cheek, she brought her lips to his and gave him a soft and sweet kiss. Lynne couldn't help but giggle as his beard and mustach tickled her face. She pulled back after a couple seconds and smiled broadly at him.
Graemon joins in with the kiss though, letting the two enjoy this moment together. Although, this was a public showing to all. After it was all done, the Baron looks at the broad smile of Lynne, the Fondorian smiling himself and chuckling.I can only imagine what headline will be with the pictures the news took.Lynne was becoming a constant and welcomed companion. Certainly though, the kiss viewed by all confirmed their relation. Graemon stands with her for a moment before going back to dancing. This time, they were a bit closer together.I am glad we aren't shying from what we are becoming towards each other. In truth, Lynne... I felt I have been missing on something like this all my life. Thank you for opening my eyes so that I may share these moments and bond with you. |
