A bottle of your best wine and two glasses please.
Ivan comes back at the table with a bottle of red wine and two glasses, he pours each a drink before he seats himself.
Right, so about Xalo.
The guy has a severe drinking problem. This problem has caused concern.
Shortly -after- we established our date on the Barrier Gate, I learned he is here too, and I know how you two get along.
Needless to say, he was in the bar.
I came here before you to try and talk him out of that bar, I honestly just wanted a chat, but guess what, the security I paid to keep an eye on us, just walked away because he paid them more.
His drinking habit has kept him confined to bars, getting himself in trouble, while the rest of us were left to take over his duties, you'd expect this from a recruit who doesn't know what he wants yet, but from a high ranking member? What made it worse, he seemed to have lost his will to fight, and I am not sure whether you heard or not, but alien attacks on human colonies have been increasing recently, we were there to push them away when they swarmed the Stuttgart planet, imagine what would've happened to those people down there had we followed by his example.
He didn't want to fight, but fighters is what we need most at this moment, and a man with his experience will be a great asset so I came here to put the fight back into him.
I was going to start with words, first, but as I already told you, he removed the only security measure that kept us from fighting.
I felt cheated out of my money, so yeah, I bit him.
You think I'm the crazy one? I came here unarmed to get him out of the bar.
Ivan leans in to show Flora the stab wound on his hand.
He pulled a freaking switchblade on me.
Ivan backs up in his seat.
But I didn't ask you to come here to talk about Xalo, he has been disruptive enough as it is.
