As soon as the Captain started to swallowed the first bite, a Primary Fleet recruit came up to salute him. He almost choke at the sudden salute of the man. " *coughs*-Ah, Mr. Ripper, nice to finally meet you.... in person*grins* It's me Captain Remus Sius."
He rendered the man's salute. " I'm only a Captain in the Secondary Fleet; although, Admiral Anderson recently accepted my application to the Primary. *gestures at his Adjutant's side* Take a seat and get whatever you want. It's on me.*smiles*"
The Adjutant look at the Recruit and said in a low-shy manner, "Pl..e..a..se to meet you, Mr Ripper."
Offers a handshake as his hand is shaking as if he's seen a ghost.
The Captain assuring the Recruit said, "Oh do forgive my Lieutenant, he usually is shy beside strangers."
Sips his wine and points his pinky at those Primaries "Oh, those pilots. They are just having a drinking contest. I must say one of em' might be drunk already *chuckles*"
