Commander Tuvok

Highly illogical.

I...shall refrain from comment out of respect for Captain Kira.

This is a...fascinating meme.

I believe we once shared a mutual acquaintance, Admiral. I served under Captain Sulu on the Excelsior.

I suppose it would be wrong to attribute it to that, though, since Vulcans are highly emotional beings unless trained in the teachings of Surak.

Quite possibly. She is more emotional than most other Vulcans, though that may be due to her Romulan heritage.

I never thought I would see Dr. Leonard McCoy say a Vulcan is lucky in any respect. I was under the impression you consider us "green-blooded, pointy-eared hobgoblins."

Luck has nothing to do with it; it is merely Vulcan longevity.

Oh...yes, of course. I had forgotten.

I will not dispute your assertion, Admiral, though I will say that we Vulcans retain a youthful appearance for decades.

*Despite not a member of Deep Space Nine's crew, Tuvok did his duty as he saw it and fought the attackers.*

Indeed, for the better. The Grand Nagus and the First Clerk have proven to be excellent reformers of Ferengi society. I respect both of them.

Indeed. He certainly lives up to his people's ideals.

It is good to see you, Chief O'Brien. Ah, yes, thank you.

The malfunctions of this station's replicators are illogical but also, I may say, entertaining.

*Standing on the Promenade, observing the people coming and going*

Ah, I see. That is...strange as Miss Q did not approve of her husband's pursuit of Admiral Janeway while she was still in command of Voyager.

If I may, Admiral, Q often expressed an...infatuation with her during our time in the Delta Quadrant. That may have been the motivation to resurrect her, though it is difficult to determine a Q's motives for any action.

Ah, yes, that is true. Serving on the Titan during the Borg invasion, I was not aware of most of the happenings at Starfleet Command.

I have heard that you are now Fleet Admiral. Congratulations.

Harry Kim has said that Quark nearly convinced him to make a deal, but Tom Paris stepped in. That is how their friendship began.

Before I left the station, Quark attempted to sell me a set of isolinear rods. Of course, he was not successful since I saw through his attempt to "con" me.

You are welcome.

Yes, it was just before Voyager was stranded in the Delta Quadrant. I was an intelligence operative assigned to infiltrate the Maquis crew of the Val Jean.

That is agreeable to hear.

How have the two of you been adjusting to life on Deep Space Nine? This station has quite a reputation for illogical occurrences, which I experienced firsthand during my visit 29 years ago.

I was not aware she had served as First Officer of this station. I believe her to be capable of serving in that capacity; she simply needs to believe that she is, as illogical as that sounds.

Yes, for both Captain Vale and myself. However, I am...concerned that she does not think herself good enough to succeed Admiral Riker as captain of the Titan.

I am well, yes. I am now First Officer of the Titan under Captain Vale.

Since the Borg invasion nineteen years ago. You and Commander Chen were serving aboard the Enterprise then.

It is agreeable to hear from you, Admiral. It has been some time.

I wonder how my old friend Admiral Akaar is doing. I have not spoken to him in years.
