Cassandra's eyes would glance over at Rethea who was sitting at the table across from her, she wasn't sure if the elite hated her for some reason or another but she just shrugged it off and continued to eat her salad and glanced over at James watching him chatting it up with the hinge-head named Kal. She just rolled her eyes and took a drink from her water and leaned back in her seat and sighed, Cassandra hated being on this mission but she had her orders to remain calm and do her job and just protect Hays from anything that would happen.

James would look over at Cassandra who was sitting by herself eating away at her salad. "Nah i'll be fine, besides they will just simply stare and glare at me if I did." He said with a shrug as he started to cut apart the steak that was on the table and closed his eyes as he enjoyed the taste and grabbed the can of cola that he bought from the vending machine. "I believe she would be a nice person to get to know. Though she does seem a bit scary and use that giant staff of hers to gut me or something." He said with a laugh and glanced over towards the captain once more. "in a way, shes sort of like Cassie over there."

The data pad that she handed over to Juso contained everything from information about Captain Wellens and James to even the colony of Aurora. "I believe your Kal and James would get along very well together during this mission. I think we should have Cassandra and Rethea work together.. just to clear the air between the two of them they seem to have been affected by the war the most." The ambassador said as she grabbed her own datapad. "So about the colony Aurora, it is the closest to the former Covenant controlled space but luckily seemed to be untouched by the war. Since Aurora is closer to your system we would wish to get aid with whatever you are willing to give, yes we could do this ourselves but it would take weeks from a non USNC military vessel to travel between the inner and outer colonies. And they would be willing to trade whatever you need as well since Aurora is an agricultural world, if I remember right you do have some trouble with growing crops at the moment since the San Shyuum were in control of those things."
