* Garland looks at avatar
[Avatar] [I could psionically call him for you.]
[Matsuoka] is... there something wrong Snipe?

* Garland has an open mouth/twitching smile

* Maestro has a slighty bored look on his face, like he was expecting a lecture
* Garland 's eyes narrow to Spade in that old fasion.
* Gravedigger bites his lip, trying not to laugh
[Spade] Alright, now...
* Garland shoots a look at any one who was laughin
* Garland crosses his arms, watching how the new guys are working

* Maestro fiddles with a pen
* Matsuoka looks up at Spade
* Matsuoka turns to Snipe "that doesn't sound that great"
* Gravedigger shifts uncomfortably in his seat
[Spade] I'm here to give you a brief run down on proper codes of coduct and sexual harrassment.  Ladies, I would advise you listen closely to this.
* Garland watches spade, looking slightly contemplative, and contempted
[Snipe] Never does.  *face twitches at the next line*
* Matsuoka wonders what Spade meant by that comment
[Spade] Sexual harrassment of your fellow officers, gentlemen, will not be accepted and will result in your termination.  Ladies, please direct all complaints to your team's counselor, who you will soon meet.
[Garland] NRP: Oh know, more ameture Aikido for fighting off a harasser.
[Spirit] (To Avatar) [Rules and Regs?  Oh fun...]
* Maestro mutters under his breath: Oh Please..
[Spade] Any questions on sexual harrassment?  I hope this should be common knowledge...
* Snipe raises hand
[Spade] ....Yes?  *Glares at Snipe*

* Matsuoka looks at Snipe puzzled
[Snipe] Um, er, how would flirting fall into that?
* Matsuoka giggles
* Gravedigger stiffles a laugh
[Spade] ...What do you mean?  *face visibily prepares for the worst*
[Snipe] I mean, flirting with a woman, you know....you do know, don't you?
* Spirit manages to hold back a laugh... barely...
[Spade] ...Yes...I do.
* Matsuoka laughs out loud a little
[Snipe] Well, how would that be considered?  I mean, flirting isn't really harrassing anyone....
[Spade] Well, if they ask you to stop flirting, and you don't, that's sexual harrassment...got it?
* Avatar glances at Snipe
[Snipe] What if they playfully tell you to quit?  That could get confusing, Mr. President sir.
[Maestro] We ALL know what is and isn't acceptable, Could we prehaps, Move on
* Matsuoka gently hits Snipe, trying to make him stop
[Avatar] [I'm sure he does... Lets continue, Mr. President...]

[Garland] NRP: hey, I saw that sort of thing on a sitcom once, they filled up a whole half hour of "what if"s
* Matsuoka tries to look serious but winds up with a stupid smirk on her face
[Spirit] NRP: *watches snipe collapse from the sudden flood of psi messages*
[Spade] Moving on, codes of conduct...no fighting, etc. etc.  No running around like chickens with your heads cut off.  The Hunters were rarely organized...
[Snipe] NRP: *takes it rather well, actually*
* Gravedigger takes a notepad out of his pocket, crosses something off, then replaces it
* Garland looks at spade, as if spade didn't know what he was talking about
[Spirit] (To Avatar) [Don't comment on that first one Av...]
[Avatar] NRP: They don't hurt anyone really though... I mean, alot would give 'em a headache myabe, but just two...
[Spade] Now, I just wanted to say hi and go over that with you.  I'll be handing this over to your counselor who will in return get you ready for tomorrow's training by General Steel.  He will be your instructor.

[Garland] Snipe: Don't feel bad, the Hunters hated him a lot.
[Avatar] [You asked for it... you know, Snipe...]
[Maestro] Can you belive that guy *mocking tone* "Sexual harrassment of your fellow officers, gentlemen, will not be accepted and will result in your termination."
* Spirit deals out a quick game of solitare while she waits.
[Matsuoka] you know!
[Maestro] We knew that from grade school...
* Snipe snickers
[Snipe] Maybe he wants us to feel like that
* Matsuoka shakes her head
[Snipe] Just an observation, that's all
