Imad watched as the food was placed on the table. Each ornate bowl held a different kind of food and was set upon a heated central piece on the table that kept the food warm. Both he and Ainsleigh were given bowls of rice and chopsticks and the cadet looked ready to begin. He pointed to a dish with his chopsticks, wanting to inform the young woman about its spicy contents, but before he could speak Imad heard someone close by clear their throat.
~Not the most welcome sound when one is about to eat.~ Imad thought to himself. Someone started to speak and the ensign looked up and noticed that the Klingon's words were directed at Ainsleigh. ~I guess clearing one's throat is Klingon for pardon me?~
Poking at the rice in his bowl while waiting for the Klingon to finish, so he and Ainsleigh could start their meal, Imad wondered what had prompted the officer's unexpected visit. However once he had spoken to the cadet, the Klingon officer turned to Imad and said, "I don't believe I know you, I'm Commander K'ratak." The Klingon officer paused long enough for Imad to surmise that he didn't know the officer.
"I'm the tactical officer and the Acting First Officer of the Hepta, Chances are Cadet Mcleod will be on my ship. What better way to know ones cadets then training, you are welcome to join us Ensign if you would like."
~A Klingon tactical officer, how very..cliche.~ Imad thought to himself. "Actually I was thinking about asking Ainsleigh if the one thing she would take with her would be me. But since you've invited me, I guess that means we both get to bring an item with us," he said with an eager laugh. "It sounds like fun Commander, I'll be there! Now if you'll excuse us, neither myself or Ainsleigh has eaten today," Imad replied and began to transfer Sesame chicken into his bowl with the chopsticks. "If you enjoy Asian cuisine, get some chopsticks and rice and join us," Imad offered. It wasn't like any of them were on duty at that moment so there was no need for formality.
