Location: Ready Room
Timeline: Current

Kara teeter tottered a little bit once they got into the Ready Room. Not completely sure why this spot, unless it was for security reasons. That might make sense after all. The field should be up there also.

Hopefully it would not take long for the necessary repairs.
"You want something to drink or eat?" Teaya ordered herself some mint tea and crackers and cheese.

She shook her head a little bit, “No, thank you though.”

"Well, let's get down to it then." Taking a seat at the table with her tea and snack, she had strategically placed it in case Kara changed her mind.

Kara wasn’t taking the bait right now. “Well what were you thinking?”

Teaya finished chewing her crackers and washed down with tea. "Sorry. I was thinking in terms of old days when air travel began and there was war. There were code talkers. With that in mind we need to have something simplistic but not obvious for when the air is clear to move in when we see the bouy. They have tried some pretty nasty tactics and poor Flower is hanging in but she won't take much more. It's imperative, obviously, that we win." Teaya worried her bottom lip between her teeth a moment. "Hmmm… it's needs to be…" Teaya began to drum her fingers on the table. For the moment she was at a loss.

“Yes, they have. If this wasn’t technically...a game, they would not be alive now when I got done with them.” Kara was angry, but that wasn’t true. She wouldn’t kill unless there was no choice. Giving a thoughtful look a moment. “Wait! We can use my language! No one but me knows it.”

"Kara that's brilliant. You need to teach them a few words and drill them till they see in their sleep. Whatever in you're language for target, stop and careful. I know sometimes in english words are simplified and other languages have multiple words for one english word." Teaya released a hopeful sigh.
"What do you think?"

“They are all symbolology, like hieroglyphics. I can teach certain ones though. Just some simple ones like you said we can use for codes. There is no way that they would know any of them at all. I really would not like to put all of those out there for everyone see.”

"Unless it can be programmed into the shuttles the symbology wont work dear."

“I know, but I can program it.”

"Okay then. We have it wrapped up I think then. Fantastic." Teaya stood. "This must be one heck of a baby. I feel l have exploded. 4 more months." She gave a soft sigh as she cleared her things from the table.
Kara raised an eyebrow, “Exploded?”

Chuckling… "The baby Kara. I was referring to how big my belly has gotten and still have 4 more moon cycles to go."

“Oh.” She gave a glance a moment and shrugged a bit, “I hadn’t noticed.”

"Let's go, we have work to do." Gave a small chuckle and walked towards the door to the bridge.

Kara turned to follow the waddily woman, she was just trying to be nice.
