Col volkov sat in the ship's galley, sipping vodka. He'd talked with a few of the crew, mostly he stayed with members of the federal army. He'd talked with the Geth a few times, it was enlightening. The synthetic life form would have fit in with the Russians, hard worker, collective minded, and intelligent. The Geth often spoke of his people, and the quarians. Volkov knew that there were at least a few onboard now, he wondered if the one captain he'd meet was here.

"This last war was pointless too. It cost me a great deal."

How could the Federation follow him? Not to mention Golden's use of the war to kill thousands of civilians."-Silver *he drinks a bit more
-
"The federation didn't follow him, we didn't know. Golden was not ours, he would have killed us all."

-
"I'm not always briefed on our enemies, just told that they are."
-
"Makes sense. You wouldn't want your people feeling unsafe when you don't have much information on what is making them unsafe."-Silver
-
"I didn't agree with everything I've done but I had my orders."
-
"I understand. War asks us to do bad things for our side. It can be very confusing to know who is good and who is bad or if there is a difference between the two."-Silver

[b]He sees Yusa sitting at the bar, drinking a Dextro amino whiskey[/b] "To think I was chosen for this...."
-
He drains one glass, gets another and raises it in greeting to her. "We were all chosen for this, some could not refuse orders. To think I'd be on the same ship as some of the people who killed my men."
-
"Mhm, but I wasn't part of any of the groups and yet I'm here for some reason..." [b]Yusa raises it to him and takes a sip[/b] "I wonder where sentinel is....."
-
"Your Geth? He is in armory, getting my boys up to date software for their armor. Is he always like that?"
-
"Yup, I had him in charge of keeping my ship up to date and repairing it. He's wonderful with technology but doesn't understand jokes, sarcasm, metaphors or figures of speech."
-
The Russian laughed. "That is true, some concepts are foreign to him others are not so." He smiled smugly.
-
[b]Yusa nods as she finishes her drink[/b] "So what's your name?"
-
"You do not remember? And after I helped clear your name too."
-
"It's not that I don't remember you, It's that I'm bad with names."
-
"I'm Dmitri Volkov, you knew me as a major, I'm now a colonel."
-
"Good for you, you deserve that promotion. So how has the new government been working out?"
-
"Well enough, it's not as strong as the autocracy and they cut down on the military. Lucky for me, 7th group was maintained but they cut spending to pensions and veterans affairs."
-
"That's not a good idea, hopefully they try to keep everything at peace and not commit the atrocities the old one made."
-
"They won't, most corrupt officials were imprisoned or killed. The rest will certainly keep away. Besides, the Russians are very tired of the war, and without us what's left of the federation would fall."
-
"Alright, I'm happy with that. Has work been hard?"
-
"It has been. It will be. I do hear you have responsibility among your people, so I imagine you know the feeling exactly."
-
"Nope, I'm a exile. They don't care about me."
