Yes, Gladys and the rest were the backbone of the administrative staff of the old Office and are more than welcome in the new.
Britney, Britney, Britney...why don't we give you an official reason to hang out here? Perhaps you could be our Special Advisor if you are reluctant to join the Elite Guard?

Ohmygod! I like do have an official reason to hang out here, I'm the Off-Site Security Analyst for Medicus Two. My job is to like determine whether or not any given situation is secure enough to risk sending Medicus Two Personnel into harms way and junk like that.
It's a call someone outside the paramedic team has to make... cuz Sam & Tony always worry more about the people they're trying to save than they do about themselves.
Kind of like when they responded to the scene when you were shot. They weren't concerned about a shooter, they were there to save his victim. And you're like alive today because of that.

<thinks> Of course, they were on the scene AWFULLY quick--and I'm pretty sure the goal was always to de-power me and get rid of Lardi. Mission accomplished, I'd say. Well, I think they'll find Chief Taylor a more formidable adversary than they'd ever imagined!

Good Evening Chief Taylor, It does an old Diplomats heart good to see you settling in so quickly. I see that Sir Hugh, the Permanent Secretary to the Legion World Treasury, has released the funds needed to establish the new organization on such a homely basis so soon. I hope you have managed to fill out all 37 pages of the requisition forms, PV 357.U.2a and the 44 pages of MYU 999.aaa.o234rRs so that the bureaucracy can start to allocate funds to the office and not to draw down Imprests against you personally as I don’t think even your salary can stand those sort of deductions
Now whilst I will need to return to my quarters for a rest before making my diplomatic reports to the LMBP leadership I thought I would just pop over to let you know the jist of the external security report.
Basically Anthony old chum, its “all quiet on the western front” as they say. Yes there’s the usual nonsense brewing in various sectors, For example the People’s Democratic Confederation of Argolis III are planning a pre-emptive strike on the Democratic People’s Union of Argolis IV over something the DPU’s First Speaker said about the PDC’s Deputy Vice Pro consuls mother twenty two years ago, and the Barbarian Hordes seem to have sacked another three planets in the Ulfgar sector. But all my contacts seem to be saying there is nothing heading our way for once.
Still we can catch up a little later once I’ve rested.
Pip pip old bean.

Ah...Darden! <chuckles> You know I love it when you affect all those crazy British turns of phrase for me! Next thing you know you'll be telling me to "throw another shrimo on the barbie"! (or is that a French thing?)
Anyhow, it's been too damn long! Truth to tell, when I saw you come in, I had hopes that you were about to apply for the Elite Guard! I guess that would compromise with the diplomat thing, huh? (especially with what I've got planned...)
As for all those forms and such, I'm sure Gladys, my Executive Assistant, and her crew have got all the red tape covered.
By the way if you see Hrun around, tell him I've got a few 'castles' for him to storm should he decide to join my Elite Guard!
Sometime soon, you, me, Des and Lou (if we can find him!) need to get good and drunk and reminisce about the old days!
It's gonna be good times ahead, my friend, I can promise you that!

Oh, it'll be real soon, Sharky. Just need to fill a couple more spots on the roster. I think we could use some Daxamite muscle to fill out our ranks...if you see Dev, tell him to come see me.
As for the rest, let's just say the Security Office is going to be a lot more proactive than in its previous incarnations....

Well, well, well...you've been working too hard, Chief!
<pats him on the back>
It's the little things that are annoying, isn't it? I got you a gift, but figured a real bottle of something would be too tempting once the first major crisis happens.
<sees Lardy is focused and has a lot to do>
I'll get out of your way, but try not to get too bogged down. Stop by the Lounge later if you need to unwind a bit.

Hmm, I'm starting to wonder aloud whether or not this "new improved" Office of Security is such a good idea. Not only have I NOT been convinced that the new uniforms won't be completely shame-inducing, but I'm also beginning to pick up on some possibly sinister uses of ellipses.
I dunno, maybe I'm just being...!!!

I hope so Anthony I hope so. I miss Lou too. Still join Des and me for a gin nightcap over at his new place. (bit seedy, but you have to let these young un’s get it out of their system)
By the by that phrase is antipodean i fear. And anyway you should know by now old bean I don’t do “French” My Lord Wellington would never approve.
I am glad to hear that the administration team is on top of things as I may have to submit some expenses forms, you know for some of the more “covert” operations of our diplomatic network. I do believe that Cobalt had a certain “fund” which we could use? Anyway, we can have a bit of a chin wag down at the old long bar at the club when you next pop over for Pimms and the cricket.
I’m afraid I’ll have to pass on joining the Elite Guard, Uniforms are a bit gaudy for my tastes. But, if you need manpower, I can have a squad of the Varangian Guard transferred from customs duty on the northern wall to bolster your own security.
I’ll get a message to Hrun for you as soon as I see him, It sounds right up his street.
