ON:

1st Lieutenant Daniel Brady had been restricted to limits for his unacceptable behaviour at hte bar a few nights previous. He was walking the corridor on his way to the gym and off in his own world. Thankfully, he had not seen Lieutenant Commander Dorian Gabriel off-duty, or there would have been some words to be had.

One thing that the Marine did not expect, however, and had forgotten, was to not think so much about the previous events and keep his mind on where he was going. He ended up walking into a Lieutenant with a blue undershirt on. 'Hmmm, damn Flyboy's.' Brady thought. "Sorry, mate. I didn't see you." he said, with sincerity in his voice.

"No probs." Said Dunham. Towel slung over his left shoulder and kit bag in his right hand, Dunham was on his way to the gym to work out and clear his mind of troubles. He didn't know the Marine he had bumped into. "Hi I'm Richard. I don't think we have met." he said offering his hand.

The Marine shook the Flyboy's hand, "Daniel Brady, the Marine Exeuctive Officer who's caused a bit of trouble over the past few weeks, if you didn't know." He grinned cheekily and surveyed the other man. It was a change to be seeing other people that didn't have a green undershirt on. "On your way to the gym, I take it?"

"Yeah. Good way to work out some of the stress. So what kinda of problems have you been getting up to in your time here."

"Well, when I first got here I didn't really get the approval from Darson, so I kept to myself. Then I met the beautiful Ms. Ayren Kelan while I was smashed drunk off my face, and I kind of physically hurt her. Then some Secuirty officer got involved, I punched him, then basically spent overnight in a cell until Darson and Gabriel got there and sorted everything out. To say I'm in a whole heap of crap would be an understatement." Brady gave a frown and made his way into the gym with the Flyboy trailing.

"Come on, I'll spot ya." Both officers wen't into the gym and hit the anti gravity weights machine. Brady started pumping out reps at the rate of physical training that only a marine could do. Dunham was impressed as he watched over him with his controls on the gravity machine. Adding wait to the system as requested. "i've met the Ms Kelan. She is a fine woman. I just hope her new partner doesn't find out about this. She will murder you." he said with a bit of a smile on his face knowing what his boss the CAG was like. "I would nip it in the bud. Have you had a chance to apologize to Ms Kelan?"

Daniel laughed out loud, "I'm not even allowed to be in the same room as her, let alone close enough to apologize for what I did to her. Hey, I know, YOU can go and do it for me!" He kept on laughing and pumping the anti-gravity weights, clenching his teach at different points. "Anyway, what's this about a new partner?"

Dunham rubbed his chin in thought. "Well it's really not my place to say. But her new relationship is with my CAG. But yeah I could go and talk to her if you like. If your seriouse about making an apology to the women."

"Well, i'll be damned. Nah, when this AVO gets lifted, I'll go and sort it out myself. It'll be cool. Hopefully." Daniel shut his mouth and concentrated on two things: forming an apology to Ayren, and the weights he was lifting - the first taking preferrence over the latter. 'Maybe this Flyboy could prove useful and possibly become a mate' the Marine thought to himself. God knows, he was desperate for someone decent to talk to; the other Marines wouldn't give him the time of day.

"Well if your sure. But if you change your mind you let me know. I like to think I'm a people person. Sort of"
He smiled to himself. "Well as well as one could be given our line of work in star fleet"

Daniel shrugged the best he could and laughed, "If you insist."

THey swaped places on the anti gravity weights. Brady spotting for Dunham. Their was no way Dunham could lift the weight levels that the Marine could. So he worked on a fast rep out put instead. "Well when your free and can roam the station again we will get a drink."

"Yeah, definately." the Marine smiled and watched the other man do his workout. Eventually, after hitting the showers, both men walked out and in different directions: Brady back to his quarters, and Dunham to an unknown location.
