[ Terimi Bai | The Pink Flamingo, Twin Suns Market ]It had been too long since Terimi Bai had stopped at her best friend's restaurant the Pink Flamingo, right off the Twin Suns Market. "It's an Earth bird. Humans will love it," Jaxon had told her. It was a silly name but solid stretegy, fellow restauranteur Terimi had to admit - humans were known for being both curious and homesick (and most of the time, very prosperous). "He's over with a customer," the host said and pointed the way. "A Betazoid here on business."Ooh! Terimi put her hands in the pockets of her suit. It was always nice to meet a wide-travelling Betazoid, someone who spoke her language. She went on over and stood next to Jaxon, smiling. "Hello, Jax," she greeted the human. And then to the guest, she spoke telepathically. ~ "Welcome. I'm Terimi Bai." ~Leanna Mazal [Pink Flamingo - Two Suns Market, Dostallo] The food and conversation were going down extremely well with Leanna as Jaxon regaled her with more stories about Jeffy as she ate her evening meal. Deciding very quickly that this would become her go to place for the remainder of her time here, especially with its rapidly increasing familiarity and fun atmosphere. Once she had finished eating, Lea had agreed to try one of the house special liqueurs whilst debating whether to indulge in one of the desserts when they joined by someone else. Sensing the obvious connection between the pair as the smart suited woman greeted Jaxon, before she spoke to Lea telepathically. Thank you, Terimi, I'm Leanna Mazal Greeting exchange followed by a look of understanding from Jaxon. The Flamingo's proprietor smiled and spoke to his best friend. " Hey Teri, please join us as we're celebrating our new business deal"." That we are and it'll be good to get to know one of Jaxon's friends".

[ Callum Tashar | Cho restaurant, Mazzalo ]Continued from earlier today...The reception had lasted far into the afternoon but by the time the dinner hour had approached, most of the guests had gone on their way. Some went to shows in Gallo, others onward to other social engagements. Callum himself had stayed, finding diversion in the smaller conversations and the peace and quiet. He browsed over the steady flow of small plates of creative dishes. His generosity flowed, a replacement for the connection he'd never had with his foul-up of a son who would he'd not see a hair of. And there, a family. A handsome family. They were just being seated. Callum waited until the server finished taking drink orders and then approached. "Good evening," he said with a little bow. "I'm Callum Tashar. How are you finding our fine city? A fine looking child. Hello, there little one!"Ozu Saya [Ozu Saya, Domen Kyo and Domen Evekh - Cho restaurant - Mazzalo] After the incident in the market with the Bolian boy, Saya and her family parted ways with Lea and returned to their hotel for a few hours of rest. Evekh, who really disliked naps, even consented to lie down for awhile. That evening for dinner, the family headed out to a restaurant the hotel concierge had recommended. It was a little more posh than they might have ordinarily gone with a toddler, but Evekh was generally quiet and well-behaved in new places, as long as he was rested. They were quickly seated, with Evekh in a booster seat where both parents could reach and help him if needed, and they ordered a bottle of sparkling cider as a treat. Evekh liked the bubbly juice, and Kyo wasn't comfortable with the idea of being even the tiniest bit impaired while out with his family after the incident in the market. Saya looked up and raised an eyebrow when the Risian approached their table and greeted them, wondering if he was the restaurant owner or manager. Kyo glanced up from where he was helping Evekh uncatch the edge of his shirt from the booster seat and offered a cautious smile. He was a bit leery of random people coming up to them now. Evekh was as gregarious as ever, however, waving enthusiastically and saying, Hi!Saya followed that up with a polite greeting of her own. Hello, she said simply. What we have seen of the city is quite lovely. Kaya Som

The Betazoid also got the feeling that her night or whatever passed for it here was about to get a lot more fun as Terimi asked her a question. There was a look towards Jaxon who simply rolled his eyes at the obvious pun before breaking out in a grin that told Lea that he was used to this. " Not quite but I do own a bar and restaurant on Front Ear" Lea began as she took another sip of her drink. " As for what we're celebrating, we've just agreed a deal for Jaxon to supply my bar with local produce and his specially brewed beers and liqueurs".

[ Terimi Bai | The Pink Flamingo, Twin Suns Market ]"Mmm!" Terimi smiled through her drink then lifted it in a little toast. "It was only a matter of time before Jaxon subjected the other end of the quadrant with his experiments." She was teasing and easy about it. In reality, he truly did something extra-ordinary. She'd have his wares in her own restaurants if he'd allow it. But this was a good move, exporting. It could only bring the city more business. "Better that than that awake potion that's been going around," Terimi said. "Have you heard about it?" She was happy to explain for Leanna's benefit, explaining that there was a brisk market for potent drinks that either woke you up or got you some sleep and were very popular among visitors who couldn't adjust to the constant suns-light. "It's all very safe, but sometimes you get someone cutting corners and dragging unconscious Starfleet officers into back alleys." Terimi seemed amused by the whole story. Leanna Mazal

[Pink Flamingo - Two Suns Market, Dostallo] " You're just jealous Teri, but yes it was about time that I listened to you" Jaxon replied half serious, half joking as Terimi then explained about the awake potion to Leanna. It was an awful concotion in his opinion and something that he would never allow in the Flamingo, regardless of how safe it was supposed to be. Lea, however shook her head as she listened to Terimi, not liking the sound of the potion. Not overly surprised to learn that people liked to cut corners. Although the mention of starfleet officers and dragging them into back alleys unconscious, got her attention. " Terimi, I'm here with starfleet crew, if someone has been dragged away, I need to know so I can find them".

[ Terimi Bai | The Pink Flamingo, Twin Suns Market ]Leanna's sudden change of mood surprised the fellow empath. Leanna's concern was sharp and deep-seated and a contrast to the city's easy-going vibe. Terimi smiled nervously, not sharing the alarm. "I'm sure it's nothing. The health ministry will handle it," Terimi began, then thought better of it. Leanna was worried and Terimi realized she'd not likely let the matter lie. Terimi winced as she tried to remember the details. "It was earlier today in Gallo borough. Friend of a friend was talking about a human stumbling along with a Ferengi, I think she's called Niva."Ferengi weren't uncommon in Celladore, among all the many species who called the city home. Sometimes tourists had a low opinion of them due to the cultural friction so often surrounding the Ferengi Alliance. But the Ferengi locals were very infrequently affiliated. "Someone's probably reported it. We can check." Terimi signalled for a PADD. Leanna Mazal

[Pink Flamingo - Two Suns Market, Dostallo] The change in Leanna's mood was likely more obvious to a fellow empath as Terimi smiled nervously but didn't immediately share her concern. That was the impression that Lea got as Terimi tried to reassure her that it was likely nothing and that the health ministry would handle it. Lea didn't seem convinced, which might of showed as Terimi realised that she wouldn't let it rest as she then tried to recall the details. The details that followed narrowed it down to a handful people that it could be as she was told who they were with. When Terimi then offered to check to see if anyone had reported it. Lea was grateful to her for doing that and said so. " Thank you, it's appreciated". Kaya Som

I could be thinking of another station. But you are far flung, are you not? That must be terribly exciting."Ozu Saya[Ozu Saya, Domen Kyo and Domen Evekh - Cho restaurant - Mazzalo] Saya smiled slightly. The ridiculous name of the station gave them a little more notoriety than such distantly located station would usually have warranted. As it was, most Federation members were at least passingly familiar with it. Saya also found it interesting that the Risian's first association was the Nyberrites - there were several well-known species near that part of space. But perhaps she was being too suspicious. It is near Nyberrite space, and quite distant from most of the Federation. I am not certain that I would describe it as 'exciting'. More like hazardous, Saya said wryly. The server had been standing by the table, waiting for a break in the conversation, and he finally jumped in. Excuse me, sir, he said deferentially in Callum's direction while keeping his gaze mostly trained on Saya and Kyo. But I'll go ahead and take your order, if you're ready.Kyo glanced at Saya and then turned back to the server at her nod. While their son could be very quiet and calm for a 3-year-old, there were limits. And hungry toddler in fancy restaurant was not a desirable combination. They'd looked up the restaurant's menu before leaving their hotel, so the ordering process was easy. Kyo said, I'll have the meat lasagna and she'll have the vegetarian lasagna. Evekh is going to share with us. And side salads all around.What dressing would you like on those salads?Balsamic vinaigrette, Saya said quickly. Springwine vinaigrette for me. Evekh what kind of dressing do you want on your salad? Kyo asked the little boy, who had started tracing the subtle pattern on the table cloth with one finger. Same you, Daddy, Evekh said, bouncing slightly. Kyo eyeballed him. I don't think you'll like it, he said slowly. Same as you, the toddler insisted. Okay, Kyo said doubtfully. Put his on the side, please, and bring some ranch on the side, too, please.The server chuckled as he wrote down the order.

[ Callum Tashar | Cho ]Callum wouldn't argue with Chief Engineer Ozu, not about Starfleet business. In fact, he found he admired it very much. He paused quite politely as the family placed their order. Callum requested a refreshment with a wave of his fingers. Once that was done, he couldn't help but continue the discussion. It was all very fascinating. "Well, we're all very grateful that you're out there. I don't like what I hear about the Nyberrite Alliance. Mercenarcies, really. Not exactly the most gracious organization. We've had trouble with them from tiem to time, you see, our trade regulations bureau has had to put their foot down and it's times like these where we're very happy to be a part of the Federation."Callum knew how to talk, finding time to coo a little at the toddler in between. "We enjoy such diversity. How long are you here? It's impossible to experience it all in one trip. You'll have to return soon. You know, many frequent visitors, they become like members of the family and even establish second homes. A port in the storm, if you like. Perhaps you know Admiral Goya? He keeps villa in Mazzalo that's quite charming. My son and his - well."The councilor cut himself off, having accidentally wandered into an unpleasent topic. He covered with a gentle cough into his fist. "Do let me impose, you have to try this new gagh/Orion fusion we're doing here, a new small plate. Here," he waved for a server. "Bring some of the gagh."

Leanna Mazal [Pink Flamingo - Two Suns Market, Dostallo] Leanna wasn't one to normally fidget but luckily she managed to deflect her nerves and increasing worry, by holding onto her refilled glass. Silently thanking Jaxon for topping it up as Terimi looked for any information about the starfleet officer who might be in trouble. The Betazoid always had a great rapport with those who served as part of the fleet including her new Imzadi. So if there was anything she could do to help them then she would. However when Terimi told her that she couldn't see anything and that nothing might of happened. Lea's mood changed again unable to decide between relief or to continue worrying as there must be something behind the initial rumour. " Okay, maybe I'm worrying over nothing" Lea replied before Terimi spoke to her telepathically. The thought of her checking hotel registries seemed a little intrusive and likely frowned upon if Terimi wasn't saying it out loud, which gave Lea an idea. No its okay, maybe I should go to Gallo instead and search that way
