Private - T'Pol:

Following a recent review of social dynamics, thanking you for your limited co-operation seems to suffice as standard protocol for these occasions.

Also, you would attract a higher percentage of positive attention with your former style and length of hair.

What were the results of your device? Do you still possess it?

[What. So much what. So, so much what.]

The device is gone.

[i_like_your]

Why?

[with_discipline]

It disappeared when the flood ended. Perhaps you should ask the Admiral.

[i_like_your]

Unfortunate.

What was it?

[with_discipline]

An escape. It was meant to return us to a spacial or temporal plane we were familiar with. I'm uncertain if it would have worked. [Not going to be telling many people about that. :|]

[i_like_your]

I'd like to review your plans for this device.

[with_discipline]

To what purpose?

[i_like_your]

The suggestion of theoretical improvements.

[with_discipline]

To avoid potential escape attempts? The blueprints are gone. [The blueprints were mostly in her head. :\]

[i_like_your]

Can you reconstruct them?

[with_discipline]

I have no intention to try.

[i_like_your]

I'd like you to try.

[with_discipline]

Theoretical improvements do not seem to balance out the risk of recreating a device meant for escape.

SHE'LL MAKE THAT HERSELF.

[i_like_your]

I am not requesting you create a practical model.

THAT'S WHAT SHE'S AFRAID OF :|

[with_discipline]

I don't intend to make that possible for anyone.

[i_like_your]

It could be necessary for future reference.

[with_discipline]

'Could be' is not reason enough to make potential escape plans any more available than they already are.

[i_like_your]

I could need them.

[with_discipline]

I see no reason for that.

[i_like_your]

This is unfortunate.

[with_discipline]

Indeed. [And wary forever more.]
