After some more training on the holodeck, with Suroc was over, Shawn and his Vulcan teacher made their way to the Orion's mess hall on deck two. All that exercise and practice turned Shawn into one tired and hungry young boy. After getting served up by the ships chef, Shawn picked out a table for him and Suroc to sit. It was by the windows. "Have I improved any?" Shawn asked as he sat down.

"Have I improved any?"
"Your progression is perhaps a little slower than I would like to see. With that said your skill has indeed increased. You my young apprentice are on your way to becoming a fine swordsman. As far as taking longer than I expected, that only means that you will have extra time to be methodical and even more precise." He closed his statement with a firm nod.
"Now, eat, drink. You need strength and nutrition in your body in order to keep yourself fueled for the upcoming training witch I assure you will get more difficult. Even I still train. The life of a practioner of the sword is one of constant training and exercise as to keep their skills well honed. I also want you to start joining me for meditation, so that your mind is..more Vulcan." Suroc said taking a couple of bites of his own flavorless food.

"Meditate to have a Vulcan mind? You mean you want me to close my eyes in the dark and go: Hum. Hum. and stuff to channel...whatever it is?" Shawn asked somewhat amused. It was funny to think about; at least for him. He spent most of his time pranking others, and changing Vulcan holodeck programs to be...more fun.

"I was thinking perhaps a more silent meditation. For you to balance your mind with your body, to temper you like steel on a forge." Suroc said taking another spoon full of his bland...soup like meal in front of him. It looked as bland as it tasted. A Vulcan dish through and through.

"I think you might want to save that for Lieutenant Commander Romilly!" Shawn told Suroc with a laugh. "I don't know who's more immature; him or me." Shawn did like Hector, but it was kinda like being around another child...in a way. Shawn took a drink of his chocolate milk; very tempted to blow bubbles into using his straw.

"I think you might want to save that for Lieutenant Commander Romilly!" Shawn told Suroc with a laugh. "I don't know who's more immature; him or me."
"Indeed. It would seem that he would be in dire need of intense meditation, and counciling. Though that has nothing to do with your training. So eat up, if you wanted to I would advise you to eat Vulcan supplements, like what I am eating. It gives your body many nutrients and vitamins that would otherwise be missing from foods like the kind that you ingest." Suroc said eating a couple more bits and nodding his head to emphasize his point.

"If ya don't mind I'll stick with food that tastes good. Unless Vulcans developed some vitamins tasty like Flintstones for kids." Those had been listed in the computer database. The vitamins that is. Come to think of it, the Flintstones cartoon was in the database too. 'Wilma!' "I got a question..." Shawn said as he forked his mac n cheese.

Suroc looked at Shawn. "What is your question Shawn, I believe that I may be able to answer it." Suroc thought how curious a child Shawn is. It was pleasing to know he was taking his training so seriously.

"Vulcans suppress their emotions or completely purge themselves, right? So, if you don't feel anything then how come some Vulcans marry species other than their own? Isn't that a little illogical? Wouldn't you have to love the spouse in question? And if the answer is yes, then how can one claim not to have emotions?" Shawn paused just a moment. "Also, does that mean you don't love your children?" So that was more than one simple question. It was just something Shawn had found kinda interesting and a bit odd.

Suroc was just getting ready to answer the young boys incredibly thoughtful questions when his combadge went off.
//"All senior officers and department heads report to the briefing room in one hour...."//
"I am afraid your inquiry will have to wait Apprentice. Now finish your meal and report to your quarters." Suroc got up and put his mostly empty dish is blandness into the replicater to be recycled. He then got up and made his way to the Bridge. But not before placing an almost fatherly hand on Shawns shoulder with an almost fatherly squeeze. How..very human of him.

OOC: Well thank you Meg thats mighty kind of you, lol
