[ota] time will tell....

Clive had spent the morning in his office, not behind his desk but...rather in front of his dry erase board. It was covered in a web of links and possible solutions to various inter-suit issues that peppered their troubles.

Scrubbing a hand through his hair, he licked his lips a moment.

Leaving his offices, he didn't pause to speak to many. No, no...The King of Spades was intent on tending to his business of the day as quickly as possible, it seemed. But what that business was might well have been up for debate.

Jordan then. It honestly made him a little hesitant to agree, though he'd never say it. Instead he merely nodded. "Julien is not my first choice, no." He admitted, before pursing his lips a little. And she had a point, Victor had just been wed, and probably deserved a chance to be a husband first for at least a while. "Jordan...would be apt." At least he hoped. His cousin had not always been known to use the best of judgement. "He'll do well in the task.

"But I have to wonder if you mean to put him in charge of this project. Someone would need to be."

"Outside Liaison? Not exactly security jurisdiction, though it could bleed over into it. Victor can be very charming, but...." Perhaps aura of danger was only visible to someone familiar with Deck.

"What are your thoughts?"

"Victor deals with things often long before either of us hear about it." He said, "I do recall several last minute trips off deck in the last six months that you did not seem overly concerned about." And whatever he was doing, Clive never got a word out of him regarding the subject.

"I do think...that an outside Liaison is useful, but we also have Ivona who handles many such things. She would not be happy to have her position handed over to anyone else."

She shrugs. "Victor performs certain duties off Deck. So have others. Ethan, Julien...me. But it is different sort of liaison than what we are looking for, yes? I imagine both Ivona and Victor will work closely with whomever we assign. Perhaps duties will go to one of them, but we should not make workload unwieldy."

"As for Ivona, she works with governmental contacts, not our more 'colorful' ones. I doubt she'd care for sort of parties any of those people throw. Her position will not be affected. If she has problem, let her come to me to express it."

"Has it ever occurred to you," she asks half teasingly, half seriously, "we allow others to question our decisions too much? Or am I only one who fights urge to go on rampage through halls?"
