This outcome is indeed agreeable

That is kind of you, Lieutenant Vox, but you should not have been coerced

Indeed, it is highly admirable. My wife would not be alive if not for Julian Bashir of your universe.

I am in agreement.

I can assist you as needed, Captain O’Brien.

in rogue behavior.

I will contact him.

This is… disconcerting.

Captain O’Brien previously assured me that abducting individuals from your universe to assist with our difficulties is a practice he wished to cease following the death of Professor Jennifer Sisko. It appears that elements of the Terok Nor cell may have engaged ->

Steven. This is unexpected.

How may I assist you?

*Eventually, she pulled back*

You are sincere. That is highly agreeable.

Very well, I shall simply wish you luck

“Very well.”

She touched her hand to his face and began.

“Thank you, Commander. It is… kind of you, to say so.

If you consent, I will begin.”

“Indeed… although, neither was that of my mentor. Still, I am indeed hesitant.

Would you be willing to submit to a mind-meld?”

“If your intentions are true, I believe we may do so together.”

Thank you.

If it will weaken the Star Empire, that seems logical

And logic demands that we be a part of it.

Indeed… it is… ironic. I have heard that many Remans in the other universe fall under a protectorate of that reality’s Klingon Empire.

In so many ways, they have achieved peace and understanding where we have not… and even they still have so much left to go.

But… change is inevitable. ->

but advantageous for the placement of Memory Omega agents.

The Star Empire does however seem to embrace their Debrune allies. Another kin. Their abilities are still much a mystery.

My fellow Romulans seem to suppress this ability among their own. Many in the galaxy fear telepaths, it is why the Alliance quarantines Betazed with a blockade of warships. Our ability to… manipulate and coerce. Yet many Alliance officials prefer Vulcans as house servants… illogical, ->

Very well. Thank you, Mr. Vkruk. We have known each other only briefly. To have earned your trust, something I know not to be an easy matter, is something I am honored to have done.

Fascinating… we Vulcans require an especially strong bond to do so, either through love or family, and it is typically… limited. For instance, my ability to communicate with Valeris.

Do you wish to meet Commander Tomalak yourself?

I am unfamiliar with Reman telepathic abilities, though I have heard rumors that it is… advanced.

I have used deception myself when necessary to the goals of Memory Omega. It is what purpose a deception serves that determines the nature of a soul.

I will endeavor to do so. If he will submit to a mind meld, I will clear the matter that way.
