| The Telosian would dress in a white long-sleeved buttoned-up shirt, with a blue-colored suit. In addition, the young Senator would be wearing the smooth pants of the same color and shiny, black shoes. Indeed, Dak was awaiting his casual dinner with a fellow Senator from Chandrila. He had left the protocol and astromech droid back in his newly-minted apartment in the other areas of Coruscant. Those droids weren't necessary, since both Senators speaks the same language in Galactic Basic. A team of soldiers employed by the Telosian Security Forces assigned to protect the Senator would press themselves against both walls. They were standing where both entrances would be covered in event of an attack, of which would be unlikely. It was wise to be safe than sorry, though. Dak had ordered their assigned waitress for a Chandrilan wine to be brought to the table.
The recently-elected Senator would await an approach from Senator Ciaran of Chandrila...

| Aine Ciaran was never late, nor was she ever early, but she was precisely on time. She whisked into the restaurant, unescorted and with no guards. The Senator did not find it necessary to travel with an entourage or heavy security in most cases, especially at a place like this. Her driver, who also acted as a bodyguard, was there, but he waited with the speeder as he usually did.
"Senator Onasi...so nice to finally meet you in person. You haven't been waiting long, have you?" Aine said brightly, as she offered him her hand.

| The Telosian shook his head lightly, and moved to stand in front of the Chandrilan. The young man would gently grab ahold of the lady's hand and kissed it. "No, I just arrived a couple of minutes ago. Just enough to ensure that everything's all set." Dak would move to pull a chair for Aine to sit on, "The pleasure's all mine." After pushing the chair gently, he would walk to the opposite side of the small table before sitting on his own chair. "I take it you're new to the Senate as well?"

| Aine took a seat and smoothed the silk skirting of her silvery blue gown. "Fairly new. I've only arrived here in recent weeks. Honestly, I haven't even finished unpacking. My apartment is littered with boxes." She told him, with a bit of laughter hanging on her voice. Obviously, the lack of order in her apartment wasn't bothering her. It would get done when it got done, and there was no sense in worrying about it.
"So tell me about Telos IV, senator. I only had a moment in the speeder to read a brief report, but I am interested to know more and anxious to help."

| Dak chuckled lightly at her laughter, joking about not finished with her new apartment. But he quickly refocused once she asked about Telos IV. "Well, it's a historical planet faced with a grave issue. We have had famine for a few years now, and we have been struggling to deal with that on our own. Hence, I have decided to represent Telos IV in the Senate in order to receive proper help. Other than famine, it's a beautiful planet. You should see it someday soon. I'd be glad to give you a tour."

| Aine listened carefully to Dak and what he had to say. She nodded her understanding and then pulled a thin data pad out of her handbag and turned it on. "Yes, of course, I would love to visit. Perhaps seeing it would enable me to be able to assist you better." She said as she looked at her calender for a few moments.
"Until then, perhaps we could come up with a way to provide at least some relief to your people, until a permanent solution can be found. I am absolutely positive that a solution can be found, and soon...."

| Dak nodded at Aine, giving her a compassionate smile to show her that he was glad for her understanding of the planetary situation his people is being put in. "I will arrange something for you, so you can come visit my planet on your own time." The Telosian would wait for her to give him an answer on when she could schedule a visit to his homeworld.
The focus shifted to an immediate and temporary fix, "Whatever you think can be of a help to my people, would greatly be appreciated..."

| Aine glanced up from her data pad and smiled for a moment. "Whenever works for you will work for me. I can clear my schedule easily enough. Perhaps next week?" She asked, before she laid the device down and did not look at it again. She wasn't so busy that she couldn't clear a schedule, not yet anyway.
"Well...we could start by shipping pallets of food stuffs from Chandrila to Telos IV, and then perhaps other worlds will follow suit. And if they do not take the initiative, I would be happy to speak with other senators and representatives to see if they would be willing to help. The only other suggestion I have is to make a proposal for assistance in the Senate."

| The Telosian nodded at Aine, "Yes, next week would be great. I will arrange everything for you to make an appearance." Dak would take in the Chandrilan's suggestion, "That would be great. I appreciate the gesture." The waitress would come back with a bottle of Chandrilan wine as he had requested, and placed it onto the table. "Thank you." He told the waitress, giving her a tip. Immediately thereafter, his attention returned to Aine. "I got Chandrilan wine just for you." He had considered proposing on the Senate floor, but he wanted to try and work behind the scenes first. That was the reason he requested to meet with Senator Aine and Chancellor Pryce first.

| The Senator shook her head and looked at the bottle, reading the label. "You did not have to do that, Senator, but thank you very much." She turned the bottle some to show him the label, and pointed to the vineyard that it said it was from. "This is not far from my home on Chandrila. 50 kilometers, perhaps." Aine would release the bottle so he could pour it if he wished.
"So yes, I can come next week. I have a ship and a good pilot, so getting there should not be a problem at all." For a moment, Aine pondered her suggestion of making a proposition in Senate. "I know that proposing something is a bit scary. I am terrified to try it myself."
