The chess game ended and the night settled in and the two men again spoke over drinks.
"Dankien, it's been great to be able to re-establish some repertoire between us. It's been entirely too long and a bit bitter at times," he said.
He referred to the time when TAZ chose to avoid conflict in the Omicrons when his former group needed his support. Doc wanted to move forward, not backward and it was evident.
"When you leave tomorrow, I will stay an extra day to get this place settled and then return to Med Force One in Omega 49," he spoke. "I will re-evaluate my mansion on Gran Canaria. It may be cold but it's still liveable." He then looked around the cabin and back at Dankien, "I'll always have this place. Maybe one day I'll run for governor of Erie and get the influence of Liberty out of the system." He made the statement with a smile as if he meant it.
"For now, I do look forward to scientific and medical progress with our new partnership."
After some more small talk, he retired for the evening.
