As the doors to the conference room sealed shut behind the two Yamataian senators, Kuroaki Isuzu turned off her helmet speaker and allowed herself a sigh of annoyance. "<Finicky little asshats...>" Even after blowing through docking security with a few minutes to spare, the senators had still somehow managed to arrive late; it was astounding. "It's like herding cats."
At least it was over. Her shift had just ended, which theoretically entitled her to a few hours of rest- not that she really believed she'd get them. Ever since the conference preparations had begun, station security had been running them ragged; installing scanning devices, cleaning up trouble spots, deporting unregistered 'visitors' and generally trying to put a lid on the station's resident criminal element.
Isuzu had been glad for a chance to get away from it for a while, but now she was starting to wonder if she'd been had. In general, the criminal element on Pisces Station was quite reasonable about keeping a low profile. It took very little effort to convince the locals that the people in that conference room were not folks you wanted to be noticed by.
Too bad everyone else is crazy. Removing her helmet, Isuzu sent a quick message to command and control, informing them that she was going off duty. She then started scanning the security team rotations to see if any of her former shipmates from the Celia were also free; she hadn't really had a chance to get to know them very well, but at least they'd have something to talk about.
