Here we go again...

(USS Nimitz, Mess Hall, Adm. Woldan, 19:30)

"Sir we have just been getting to know each other. You know backgrounds and
such.  So I see you have enlisted the aid of a Lt. just now." 

The Admiral frowned. ~How the hell did she know about that?~ But the he
remembered she was Betazoid.

"Ensign Troi!" he said harshly. "You will not discuss my thoughts in
public, thank you! What you have done is in direct conflict with all known
protocols! I hope I don't have to remind you that as a Counselor and as a
Telepath, your position should be based on trust. Discussing anyones
thought is not exactly a building block for a trusting relationship. I will
assume that it is because of your inexperience that you have betrayed the
trust. This will not happen again, is that understood, Ensign?"

She knew he was right.  She had done something that was against everything
that she was taught.  Not only in all her classes but as as a child her
parents kept teaching her the boundaries and courtesies of reading peoples
minds.

She stood up at attention and looked him in the eyes, "You are right
Admiral.  I have done not only you but also my station and family an
injustice.  I hope you will accept my apologies and assurances that it will
never happen again.  By your leave Admiral I think I should retire for the
day."  She stood there awaiting her dismissal.  She hoped that this did not
in anyway alter the standing she had built with Ensign Daynarian but could
understand it if it did.  As for the other two she had no idea and was not
going to look into their mind.

(USS Nimitz, Mess Hall, Adm. Woldan, 19:32)

The Admiral saw her standing up at attention and looking him in the eyes,
"You are right Admiral.  I have done not only you but also my station and
family an injustice.  I hope you will accept my apologies and assurances
that it will never happen again.  By your leave Admiral I think I should
retire for the day."

Woldan looked at her eyes and saw she was a bit hurt.

"Don't get your knickers in a twist, Ensign. I'm sure you will behave from
now on, so sit down and let's get to know each other a bit more."

Woldan sat down himself and waited for the Couns to do the same. When she
did, almost smiling apologetically to the Security Chief.

Woldan started to tell about his days when he was starting at Starfleet
after leaving the Maquis.

The evening went smooth, with one exception, the entry of that blasted
Lieutenant who the Admiral thought he would have seen the last off for a
few days.

He listened a while at the Lieutenants babble and saw that his Ensigns
seemed to enjoy that guy. If this would have been a Maquis ship the Admiral
would have been able to deal with that idiot once and for all but seeing he
was now bound by Federation laws, he put on his bravest face, bit the
bullet and even managed to produce a smile.

To shut him up, Woldan got him to sit down and went on talking to his Ensigns.

He looked a few times over to the clown and thought: ~I'll get back at you,
boy!~

The evening went on nicely when after a while the Security Chief got
restless. Sddenly his Commbadge beeped.

(USS Nimitz, Mess hall, En. Daynarian, 21:00)

Alairn sat back and enjoyed his meal, he had to admit, this was a side of
the Admiral he hadn't suspected existed, by nature the Admiral was very
crusty, but off duty he displayed a suprising sense of humor and Alairn
soon found himself swept up in his stories of Star Fleet in years past. 
Alairn was about to excuse himself to retire for the evening when his
combadge beeped........
