TC ate his piece of cake as he sat at the table admiring the gift that had been presented to him by the captain. He was astounded by just how suitable it was to him. Practical and simplistic in it’s function yet containing so many tools to get just about any job done.
It would be not only something that he would cherish, but use also.
He slipped the Swiss knife into his pocket as he rose to get another piece of cake. As he made his way towards the buffet table he saw someone he had not seen in quite sometime. He smiled as he approached, happy to have the chance to get reacquainted.
“Ms. Margolis. Fancy seeing you here.” He nodded to his former shipmate.
A quirky smile fell on to Fox's face. "Ms. Margolis? What kind of greeting is that among old friends?" she playfully asked.
The look TC returned her was one both serious and mirthful. "A sincere one," he replied, a hint of a light tone in his own voice.
Fox surveyed the food choices, wondering which of the desserts to sample. She watched as TC also looked at the selections and then went for the most simple one: the wedding cake. So, she followed suit, grabbing a slice and a fork. The two of them walked away from the buffet table, plates in hand.
After enjoying a couple of bites, Fox said, "So, everyone knows what I am doing these days, what is going on with you?"
TC gave her a knowing look over his piece of cake. "Everyone may know what you are doing, but no one knows how you got that job in Starfleet Recruitment, their star recruiter."
"I'd say it's one of my many secrets, but let's just say that someone got a bright idea, and to San Francisco I was ordered. But you are avoiding my question," Fox playfully continued. "What is new with you?"
He smiled as he munched on another piece of cake. “Same old same old. Trying to keep the ship in one piece and my captain from killing herself. Earned another pip and new scars for my efforts.” He smiled broadly.
He looked up to the tent roof as thought if there was anything else that had been momentous in his life since he last saw Fox.
“Yup, that about sums it up.” He looked at her. “Not too exciting.”
He took another piece of cake off of his plate and bit into it. “How about you?”
Fox giggled. "You call a promotion and keeping Zanh Liis in line 'not too exciting.' What does it take?" Not waiting for him to answer her question, she answered his instead. "Sad to say, my life has been my work, which despite all of the glitz, is really not as glamorous as it looks. Though I do have to say," she added lightheatedly, "it is nice waking up each morning, knowing that some enemy, entity, or other baddie has decided to wreck havoc on my day."
"As opposed to the Starfleet brass," TC chimed in.
"Oh, they are a whole other mess." Fox stopped and thought about it for a few seconds. "You know, you might have it easier. At least you know who your enemies are." The two officers shared a smile.
“Yeah.” He put the plate down. “Not as easy as you think.” He thought about all of the recent problems that had been caused by TI and Spec Ops. “So you gonna be hanging around for a bit or are you just here for the wedding?”
"I'm just here for the wedding. I was able to snag a couple of days off." Fox finished off her slice of cake. "But who knows? You never know when or where I just might pop up."
