Part 65 Communication Updates

It had been a while since he had received communication from Garak so the message was a welcome one. It had been a deep concern when communication had been cut off. However given the fact that Garak was a good agent he had withheld judgment giving his agent time to reconnect. Reflecting on that he wondered if perhaps he trusted this agent to much? No it was not that it was the fact that for the moment Garak was the most highly placed Romulan agent they had and ending him without careful consideration was not to be done. He pushed aside the small voice that said he truly did trust Garak and was perhaps beginning to consider him and ally and friend. Opening the message was done with care. He read it and was stunned. He then began to laugh rather loudly which had several of his subordinates looking at him in shock and fear. He shook his head with incongruity and decided that Garak was either the bravest most daring agent they had or the craziest. His insitct was to consider it the later rather than the former. He grinned and decided that the reason for the delayed message was acceptable and the update and method might just deserve a meritorious citation in the young agent's records. This was a message to be shared for certain. Charbaal sent a message to his brother the senator this letter was one that he was certain that Senator Charvan would find informative and highly amusing. It was not often that one got to enjoy the reports from one's agents as the Tal Shair was not known for its humor. However there was something wickedly funny about a Romulan agent having his human son help build a communications array with the help of not only the Ambassador to the Federation Sarek of Vulcan but the Andorian Ambassador Felix as well. It was just so improbable that it was funny more so when one considered that they had both gotten the parts needed for the long rage communication array and that Felix had even offered to let Garak use their communications array to send messages from both earth and Vulcan. Yes Garak was amusing and this letter might just lighten his brother's day. He had grown increasingly annoyed with the senate. This missive would surely make him smile. I am so glad I abandoned my plans to take a Senate seat. It clearly is not as amusing as I thought it would be. Charbaal thought. I do however wonder about this marriage and this sudden trip to earth. Oh well Garak will inform us all in good time. He is right in that this is not an immediate threat and it is logical that he attend a family wedding. Logical oh lord now I sound Vulcan. I am glad was laughing earlier or I might just worry about that.

Garak was enjoying the tour of the facilities of Carbon Creek. He was astounded at the openness that Mestral was allowing. He was fully aware that the Hybrid Vulcan Knew full well he was a Tal Shair agent. He was not certain if he should feel honored or insulted by the fact that he was being given such access. Adrianna took his hand and grinned wickedly at him.

"Relax Garak it's both. Well that is to say that Mestral knows you have a duty and it was far easier to give you the same tour as Sarek rather than have you feel you had to come look about yourself. It would be highly problematic if you got caught spying when it is easier to simply show you. Besides this tour is more inclusive then what you might get if you came on your own. Plus it's less likely to cause a disruption and you can ask questions to your heart's content as well."

Garak scowled at this. Sometimes he hated that his wife knew him oh so well. He would have pulled away but Adrianna tucked herself under his arm. Garak glared at her only to find Mestral giving him a hard and dangerous look. He swallowed hard as he suddenly realized that Mestral was as protective of Adrianna as he was.

"Do not allow this to cause friction in your bond. Does it do so we will end this tour immediately? It is not logical to stress one's mate." Mestral said.

"There is no stress. I merely have some difficulty with my mate's sense of humor at times." Garak said softly.

Mestral stared at him intently as if to judge his honesty and then nodded. "Yes they can be difficult to understand at times. Then all females are the same they do not always follow the logical path."

Garak almost burst out laughing at that remark and was pleased to see that Adrianna and Amanda were both glaring at their elder. Sarek however seemed to agree with the remark though he wisely kept his own council.

Ok maybe this tour is more informative then I thought it would be. Garak thought. He was relieved however when Mestral seemed to move on and once again began talking about the latest improvements to the hospital wing.
