Tharrok strolls casually into the crew lounge, nodding when he sees Tamm and Leilani standing and the two Imperium Agents already seated. He nods to the two agents, holding his tail up high but only slightly wagging. He sits across from them, casually and in a manner picked up from LC… having nothing to hide.
"Good afternoon, gentlemen. I am Tharrok. I am the pilot. I am also the First Officer OF Miss Fortune. How can we assist you esteemed Agents of the Imperium?". Tharrok then listens to the questions being asked, but more importantly, he listens to how the questions are being asked. He first speaks of the component failure.
"Indeed, we had a bit of a tense moment during our most recent transition. Fortunately, it was nothing that endangered our passengers or ship. Prudence dictates that we go over the systems involved to ensure there won’t be any related concerns. We run a tight ship and have a very good crew. Aside from the original failure, unforeseen on our end as we are just a few weeks out of an Annual, we had a short power drop which was well managed by our fine engineering crew."
Tharrok stands and heads to the beverage dispenser, drawing himself an iced and spiced caffeinated beverage. "Can I offer you gentlemen anything to drink?" Tharrok motions to the beverage dispenser, his eyebrows raised in genuine offering. He will provide whatever beverage they ask for, if any, while continuing.
"Now where were we… oh yes. With the issues coming up so soon after our Annual, it was appropriate to return directly to the facility that performed the work. I am certain you gentlemen understand why we would want to do that.". Tharrok sips his beverage while letting the Agents soak in what he has said so far. "As for our passengers, yes. I do recall meeting with them. The LeFrontaine‘s." Tharrok considers the names, his eyes drift up and to the right, slightly. "Fine, if quiet and reserved couple. Mostly kept to themselves best I recall. I do remember Mr. LeFrontaine doted on his wife. Now that you mention it, I do seem to recall they were recently married."
Tharrok doesn’t quite suppress his reaction to the near slip the Agent made regarding the LeFrontaines’ credientials. "I cannot understand what could have triggered any kind of flag in the Imperium system for such a fine couple.". He eyes the agents, hoping they might give him some kind of hint. After a moment of uneasy silence, Tharrok continues. "I honestly don’t know where they are headed. I do believe I remember something about continuing their honeymoon.". Tharrok thinks carefully. "which may or may not include a pilgrimage to commune with ancestors. I honestly cannot remember. Please feel free to speak to our other crew. Perhaps one of them has more information.". Tharrok glances at Leilani and Tamm then back at the Agents while taking another draw of the beverage.
