"Chief, Lieutenant Velt has arrived, shall I send him in?"
Douglas Hudson looked up from the datapad he was reading to regard his com system for a moment. He was already busy as all hells but he had asked for Lieutenant Velt to report to him on the Prison Break. There were things he need clarifying before he had to address the Prime Minister about the same thing.
Gods and Force that was going to be one hell of a conversation.
"Send him in, please."
With that in mind, Douglas moved back to his datapads. The day to day running of the Sector Rangers was often more work than people expected it to be. Many Rangers seemed to be of the opinion that being a Ranger in a position of command was an easy thing. That sitting behind a desk was, somehow, the least important thing a Ranger could possibly be doing with their lives. As though keeping the Rangers relevant in the eyes of the Galactic government and arranging for his Rangers to keep from being arrested by local law enforcement was something he did for fun.
Noting that Corran had been escorted into his office but not looking up from his datapad, he gestured for Corran to stand in front of his desk. Forcing the Lieutenant to wait wasn't out of any pettiness - he really did need to finish the document on the datapad before they began. When he did speak he did so without looking up from his datapad even for a moment.
"Lieutenant Velt - thank you for finding the time." he greeted the Ranger before putting the datapad down with a small smile, "Been meaning to talk to you for awhile."
Gesturing for a seat for Corran to bring it over so he could sit in it, Douglas leaned back ever so slightly in his chair. It wasn't very often that he had Rangers in his office and doubtlessly Corran was anxious about the reasoning.
"Report on your success finding us a mobile base." he instructed the Ranger, "The datapad reports... only say so much after all, I want your opinion as the boots on the ground."
