Just as Jimmy opened his mouth to tell him about his Californian locations, Jack hit him and looked towards the Vice Admiral. Anderson was busily typing away on his datapad. Jack carefully whispered to Jimmy, making sure he was out of ear shot of the Vice Admiral.
Look, its Anderson! Damn he rose up the ranks quickly.
Malrone looked up as the bartender balanced Jimmy's and his drinks on a dull brown wooden tray. He bent down awkwardly and placed the drinks down
Two double Ale's for you sir
Cheers, bartend! And, uhh...here's your tip.
Thank you, sir.
The bartender walked away with the generous two credit note Malrone had placed down for him.
Like I said, rose up fast that kid did. I 'member when he was still an Ensign,
Malrone drank back a third of his glass in one fell swoop
But that was a looong time ago.
Anderson turned around, suddenly Malrone's eyes widened and he slapped on a fake smile, hazardly giving the Vice Admiral a quick wave. As he was smiling and waving, he said one simple line to Jimmy:
Best not piss him off then.
The Vice Admiral gave a quick smile and turned back around to his drink. Malrone gave a sort of sighing groan of relief and turned back to Jimmy.
