Chandler steps in, humming softly as she looks around to make sure no one was around. "....I should stick my K'rel down here....." Mumbling she shrugs then moves to step aside for David.
"Hello Sybil", David says as he follows you into the storage space, then looks around for eavesdroppers. "How is your mother?"
Chandler freezes as she hears that then....almost holding her breath. Pinching the bridge of her nose the finally exhales and looks him in the face. "Well..." Clearing her throat she nods. "She's good.....doing her best to raise a crazy child."
"If you are speaking of yourself, I think she did a great job. You are here after all. Or do you have siblings I am not aware of?" David asks, "If so I am happy your mother found someone else."
"Uh...." Sybil lets out a nervous laugh now as she runs her hands through her hair. "No. I'm an only child....." She clears her throat then licks her lips. "Being here was....a fluke. She wasn't happy I joined Starfleet to be honest....nor the reason I joined....even if that reason changed."
David asks you to go on, interested in what you have to say, "A fluke?"
Chandler clears her throat as she looks back over. "I....." Don't snap. Don't. Do. It. "I don't know if this is the time for this. But...." And there it goes. "I joined to find you and then kick your ass if you want me to be blunt. Mom still freaking pines after you, after all these freaking years. But....somewhere along the way of not...getting in trouble any more....I actually liked doing what I do. And then I hopped on the chance to go explore and stay out of trouble to stop giving mom a heart attack all the time. But go...figure....in all my nosiness....I see the Chandler just dropped off the face of the earth. But when your video popped up....and I cross referenced your face....here's David Berton. And of course.....I don't know when to shut up.....and when I couldn't go any further I went and nagged Kemper...." Then she points at him. "So over all these years I've been chasing this Berton and not even knowing what the hell I was going to do if I found him!" Those eyes watering she sniffs a bit. "All I knew was that I was scared I wouldn't' find you...."
David considers all that you have said, "Motivations for doing a thing can vary, but it sounds like you found a home here. I am happy for you." He asks, "What all did Kemper tell you?"
Chandler watches him as she considers then shakes her head. "Enough to know to keep my mouth shut...."
David smiles at you, "That won't be quite enough, so I will says this. I never intended to hurt you, and if I did I am truly sorry. Your mother and I thought it best if I stayed away, as I could never really be around. Constantly coming and going for months, even years at a time would be too hard on you." he pauses to look at you, "I see her in you, her spirit, her attitude. She is proud of you I am sure."
Chandler rubs her temples as she takes a deep breath. "Yeah but....do you know how old I am now? Like...not even...." Taking a deep breath she then licks her lips. "Look I get it. I do. Kemper just....made sure to know you didn't...do it on purpose. I'm not....mad anymore. Just...." Then she smiles up at him. "Yeah well...mom says I'm more like you: getting into trouble." A beat. "Somehow...I keep getting into fights or in situations that might get me killed. She thinks that's you...." Laughing she nods. "But....what I wanted to know....the Captain. Your message and another....are the only ones that actually even speak of him. I have a theory and it involves the XO unfortunately and I hope I'm wrong."
David nods, "There are lots of theories on that one, which is true, I don't know for sure."
Chandler nods then. "Which....sucks." That's when she quickly gives him a hug, murmuring. "I'm glad they got to you guys...." Clearing her throat she pulls away. "I'll stay out of your hair." Winking at him she nods then.
David embraces you slightly awkwardly at first as you hug him. "You don't have to. I'd like the chance to talk again. If you would want to? But really I should get back in with the others. A lot of us are still a little out of
sorts being here. It's a big change."
Chandler nods as she smiles. "I'd like that. I can tell you how a super human almost choked me to death." Yeah....start with that. "And I can on the slick introduce you to my husband when he crawls out of his lab." Snorting a bit she then nods. "I'll be around for a bit unless she ship me out but yeah....I'd like that." Yup....rambling.
David laughs softly, "I look forward to it."
