A moderately sized old oak desk takes up nearly all the space in the room, with paper piles towering on both sides of the desk. Coffee cup stains ruin the once beautiful polished table finish, with a small laptop skewed to the side of the table and a withered old rubber plant sits woefully in the corner of the room.
Between the towers of paperwork sits Admiral Jack Malrone...
Jack yells out the door to his assistant, Commander Kiley - "Who's up next, Kiley? Better not be one of those god forsaken, slime-of-the-earth, slithering-in-the-long-grass politicians again. If it is, tell 'em I'm busy."
The Senator waiting outside his office abruptly leaves after hearing the entire conversation, mumbling angrily under his breath.
Commander Kiley pauses for a moment, crossing the Senator off the list - "Uhhm...you've got the Corona Battlegroup interviews, Lieutenant Estelonte up first." Yells Kiley.
Kiley point at the Lieutenant, who rises from the seat and starts walking towards the Admiral's door.
"Come on in Lieutanant, take a seat. That one's got blood stain on it though, funny story...not what you think."
The Lieutenant quickly takes the other seat.
Jack leans back in his chair, opening the file in front of him - "Right, Lieutenant, so I understand you were a Freelancing escort in Gallia who then joined the Corona Battlegroup as a researcher after some sort of battle in Tau-23. Care to elaborate on that?"
