Interdepartmental Cooperation
"But da-- sir, I really don't feel that it's--"

"No arguments on this, Lieutenant. You're going to be the escort for Nova Prime's son while he's here and he and I go over new interdepartmental guidelines. I'm sure you and your pet can keep him occupied." Peter Quill smiles at his son.

"You know Rocket hates being called that... sir." Alex responds, not at all thrilled with the notion of baby-sitting.

"He'll deal with it. Just like you'll deal with this assignment. Now come on, we need to go meet up with them." Peter picks up his helmet and pats his son on the back as they leave his office, headed for the main hangar.

After the adults have wandered off to drink, under the pretense of official business, Alex greets the other young man. "Alex Quill, junior security administrator for Knowhere Station. Pleased to meet you, Corpsman."

	Alex activates the beacon and hurls it, an ear-piercing wail emitting from it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mac winces at the noise but keeps his eyes open to watch the Crasher as it freaks out and rushes to cower in a corner. Then he activates the containment field. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Alex takes his helmet back off, ears ringing in spite of the dampeners, and pats Mac on the shoulder.

"Excellent work, Corpsman."

Then his comm unit turns on.

"Lieutenant, would you like to explain why I have people pounding down the door to my quarters because they're apparently in mortal danger from a nightmarish monster, and that you and your friends were on scene? Nova Prime would like an answer as well."

Alex shakes his head, and smiles lazily at Mac. "You know, sometimes I dream about living on Earth, where stuff makes sense."

	"Thanks." Then, "Commander," he says over the comm, shrugging sympathetically at Alex, "You might want to talk to the Kree envoy about where to keep his machismo, in re the Crasher currently in your cargo containment field." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex gives his father the cliff notes, cuing an attempt at stifling laughter from that end. He shrugs at Rocket. "Sometimes there is no conspiracy. Sometimes it just comes down to... to... D'ast.. what's the Kree term for testosterone?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
