[That expression was a clear sign he knew had been coming.] I know he's previously been overly optimistic on this front, sir, but I think seeing the divide up close sobered him up. And I can monitor his progress.
[And it was sure to be increasingly obvious as this conversation went on that Poe had brought up this whole idea in the first place. He didn't like the fact that he felt he needed to justify that, but he certainly understood why.] He's also volunteered to take us somewhere remote. He can stay with us as he communicates with the rebels, so if worst comes to worst, we'll have fast evac. [He wasn't sure it would be needed, but he always thought about these things anyway.]
Yes sir. I don't agree with his decision, [Which was a daring thing to say about a superior, foreign or not] But he's proved reliable on many other matters so far. [And this was excruciatingly strange, but:]
Dameron has also informed me that organizations within the United States are legally required to give their personnel a certain number of leave days per year. We are apparently legally permitted to make this claim, regardless of whether Commander Taylor's assessment of our security situation matches our own.
I trust you to keep an eye on him. Vet his suggestions before bringing them to bear.
[ Which means that they wouldn't be talking about going off the grid unless 622 thought it was a good idea. ]
There's no chance the Rebels can track us through their communiques with Dameron, is there? [ Just to be on the safe side. ]
I'm not worried about Taylor granting us leave, 622. He seems a reasonable commanding officer, and we're not at war. It's not like all hands on deck is needed around here.
Yes sir. I will. [As much as he trusted Poe in many ways, security was never something he was going to leave entirely to someone else's word.]
It seems like no one's managed to figure out signal interception or tracking through the network yet, sir. If Aegis still requires direct check-in from field agents rather than just monitoring our position, it's likely no one's got the tech yet. [And that was good, frankly, because as sensible as Aegis' work was, he didn't entirely trust it to remain that way forever.]
Yes sir, unless an anomaly happens. We usually don't have any warning when those occur. [But on the other hand...] They seem to be centralized around Porter cities, usually. If we head out and away from them, we'll have a better chance to respond appropriately regardless.

I'll leave you to draw up the details of when and where and all that.
