Nelson's

[Darkard]

McMillan took a long look at the guard who had helped the Buccaneer carry out his victim. If theres one thing he wouldent miss from Trafalgar it would be the complacient station crew. Most had gone soft due to the relative calm of the base, any guardsmen had either been paid enough to not get involved or complained they dident get paid enough to get involved. McMillan had yet to find the threshold value of credits that would mean they would do what he told them to. But threats of not getting paid at all did spark some activity.

"Since y' got y'self a little bounus fer that, y' can mop this up an all"

The guard began the start of a scowl before McMillan nipped it in the bud.

"Unless a' course y' think thats unfair? And y' other employa' treats y' better?"

A short pause later and the guard shuffled away to begrudgingly clean away the brawls aftermath.
McMillan allowed himself a little smile as he turned away and walked to the bar, where the new barmaid was slipping on a pair of leather gloves (They stopped Buccaneer drinks from burning your hands if any spilt). McMillan becconed to Nelson.

"Com'mon then, get these documents signed so a' can get goin'"

Nelson held the little stylus over the datapad like he was defusing a bomb.

"I'm going to miss you Steven..." Mumbled Nelson.

"Christ Nelson! Its a bar not devorce papers"

"...You sure you cant stay?"

It was pathetic to watch. The insecure barman dithering about loosing his boss and having to think for himself. It was going to ruin McMillan's reputation if it got out somone actually liked him.

"Nelson, sign the damm thing or a'll give the bar t' this guy" McMillan jabbed a thumb in the Buccaneers direction.

Nelson looked mortified.
