  1. [21:09:56] <SCmdr_Velal> We can begin?
  2. [21:10:26] <Glassware> Yes. Last I recall Motharn and Singh were engaging in ESPIONAGE SHENANIGANRY
  3. [21:10:58] <@IronWolf> Yes, plans for a thing to get cloaking parts!
  4. [21:13:43] <Glassware> Yes, Singh was going to violate some personal liberties in an attempt to locate the stash
  5. [21:13:51] <Glassware> So that we could plant tracking devices on it!
  6. [21:14:06] <Glassware> (And then possibly get accidentally abducted by ZATWA or something)
  7. [21:15:17] <@IronWolf> Indeed!
  8. [21:15:23] <@IronWolf> I dunno how SCmdr_Velal wants to get involved
  9. [21:15:50] <SCmdr_Velal> I dont even remember
  10. [21:16:02] <SCmdr_Velal> Two weeks is a hell of a long time
  11. [21:16:02] <PrietaMiran> velal was talking with valara
  12. [21:16:03] <SCmdr_Velal> :V
  13. [21:16:10] <PrietaMiran> who was schooling her on what her probes did
  14. [21:16:21] <PrietaMiran> and how she was going to improve this one
  15. [21:16:46] <SCmdr_Velal> Right, we were going to plug up this gap
  16. [21:17:21] <Glassware> Hm, is Motharn going to have to rely on Valara to get ahold of tracking devices that can reliably work against cloaks, or do we have some of those?
  17. [21:20:54] <@IronWolf> I assume Valara can work on those in the background
  18. [21:20:55] <@IronWolf> if Velal
  19. [21:20:55] <@IronWolf> wants to get on some Covert Ops shit
  20. [21:20:55] <@IronWolf> BLOPS
  21. [21:21:21] <SCmdr_Velal> COD BLOPS
  22. [21:21:44] <SCmdr_Velal> WHat is the plan?
  23. [21:22:00] <SCmdr_Velal> Tell it to Velal, so she knows what's going on
  24. [21:22:53] <Glassware> I will when I remember the details that it's based on
  25. [21:22:57] Glassware [chatzilla@14055a5c.6ca5ed1f.141.140.imsk] is now known as MotharnEndeliv
  26. [21:23:35] <MotharnEndeliv> And if we have a working plan or just information
  27. [21:25:39] <MotharnEndeliv> IIRC, we have basically determined that we have no feasible way of locating them before they give away the parts if they aren't using the spaceport
  28. [21:25:42] <SCmdr_Velal> DO we know what we are looking for?
  29. [21:25:53] <MotharnEndeliv> Cloaking parts, to be picked up by a courier masquerading as a legitimate ship.
  30. [21:26:25] <MotharnEndeliv> Hm, I guess I'll start us off, then.
  31. [21:27:49] <MotharnEndeliv> "From what Bruag has been able to find on Vanden Prime, intercepting a single ground-space transport will be next to impossible, though the unusual activity would likely allow us to round up the cell afterwards."
  32. [21:28:40] <MotharnEndeliv> "I think our best bet is to hope that they also realize this, and that they are therefore blending in with the legitimate shipping."
  33. [21:29:13] <MotharnEndeliv> "Singh has expressed some confidence that she can get us good information by using her information security skills in such a networked environment."
  34. [21:30:11] <SCmdr_Velal> "So we locate the transport. Then what?"
  35. [21:32:21] <MotharnEndeliv> "Not the transport, the equipment. It's likely they'll transfer the parts at some point, after all. We plant tracking devices on the equipment, and hope that it leads us to wherever the True Way are keeping their cloaked vessels."
  36. [21:32:42] <SCmdr_Velal> "And how do we go about that?"
  37. [21:34:04] <MotharnEndeliv> "Ideally, Singh will be able to at least narrow down our search parameters. Afterwards, we're going to have to ask around. But we can't raise suspicion. We'll only get one shot at this."
  38. [21:34:34] <SCmdr_Velal> "No, I mean how do we physically put the transponders on the equipment?"
  39. [21:36:06] <MotharnEndeliv> "My hope is that Lieutenant Singh and I will be able to infiltrate wherever they're storing the equipment."
  40. [21:37:19] <@IronWolf> "Like the Night Winds of Andoria, Commander?"
  41. [21:41:11] <MotharnEndeliv> "I was thinking the Glacial Wraiths."
  42. [21:41:30] <SCmdr_Velal> "I beg your pardon?"
  43. [21:42:04] <@IronWolf> "Acheson says -- said that the Night Winds were the best, though."
  44. [21:43:04] <MotharnEndeliv> "Well, that's a position that's historically up for a lot of debate. Then again, I grew up near the great northern glaciers, so I'm a bit biased, regionally speaking."
  45. [21:43:20] <SCmdr_Velal> "Using cultural references specific to a single species is very rude"
  46. [21:43:38] <SCmdr_Velal> "It also inhibits communication in an official setting like this"
  47. [21:43:41] <MotharnEndeliv> "I mean, the Glacial Wraiths did nearly wipe out the Night Wraiths before the Evening of Ten Blades."
  48. [21:43:50] <SCmdr_Velal> "I have no idea what you are talking about"
  49. [21:44:00] <SCmdr_Velal> "And I doubt that anyone else here does either"
  50. [21:44:37] <@IronWolf> "This sounds a lot like the SEALS/SAS/JRSF9 debates, honestly."
  51. [21:44:45] <@IronWolf> "Apologies, Subcommander."
  52. [21:45:20] <@IronWolf> "We're discussing different cover operation units."
  53. [21:45:49] <SCmdr_Velal> "I gathered that"
  54. [21:47:29] <@IronWolf> "Or more colloquialy, ninja clans."
  55. [21:48:31] <MotharnEndeliv> "A product of an era of great internal strife amongst the Andorian people, but they established themselves at a pinnacle of stealth that none have ever matched in the public consciousness."
  56. [21:48:44] <MotharnEndeliv> "Just substitute in a sneaky cultural icon of your choice."
  57. [21:49:24] <SCmdr_Velal> "You mean the Entire Romulan Military?"
  58. [21:49:32] SCmdr_Velal says slightly mokingly
  59. [21:51:03] <MotharnEndeliv> "Or a particularly stealthy subset."
  60. [21:51:51] MotharnEndeliv is unperturbed
  61. [21:53:36] <@IronWolf> Singh tries not to think about how Acheson would probably know the perfect Romulan one too.
  62. [21:55:33] <SCmdr_Velal> "The perfect Romulan unit is unknown"
  63. [21:57:21] <SCmdr_Velal> "What is our timeline like here?"
  64. [21:58:37] <MotharnEndeliv> "Not very long. Ideally, we'll be able to narrow it down over the next couple of hours. We'll take a minimal amount of time for preparation, and then begin infiltration."
  65. [21:59:08] <MotharnEndeliv> "Unfortunately, at that point the timetable depends on the efficiency of the True Way courier. If we are fortunate, then they will arrive /before/ the next major offensive..."
  66. [21:59:18] <SCmdr_Velal> "We should begin now then, and get a plausible cover set up for an away team"
  67. [21:59:41] <SCmdr_Velal> "We should try to distance the team's action from Hypatia to avoid drawing attention"
  68. [22:00:14] <MotharnEndeliv> "Falsified travel documentation?"
  69. [22:00:24] <@IronWolf> Singh: "We really should put in a requisition to command to get a small civilian vessel."
  70. [22:01:49] <MotharnEndeliv> "If we're going to be doing missions like this on a regular basis, I agree. It's a shame we lost the cloak-equipped Romulan shuttlecraft on Virinat..."
  71. [22:02:10] <SCmdr_Velal> "Or the Caitian shuttle we had"
  72. [22:02:35] <@IronWolf> "Yeah, Iroto's old commander still has that. And I don't think we're going to get it back."
  73. [22:03:43] <MotharnEndeliv> Not with the video he has, at least, Motharn thinks
  74. [22:04:18] <@IronWolf> "Since as I recall it was a straight trade, and /I/ don't want to be the one telling him his shuttle got wrecked."
  75. [22:05:03] SCmdr_Velal is actually somewhat glad that the shuttle was wrecked and the Republic made off with some new stuff to look at
  76. [22:08:05] <SCmdr_Velal> "Can we modify the Captain's yacht?"
  77. [22:08:05] <MotharnEndeliv> "Our only option is to use one of our own shuttlecraft, then. I suppose we could pose as individuals unconnected to Hypatia except by the barest of threads. Subcommander, do you think you might be able to whip up some cover identities on short notice based on that?"
  78. [22:09:05] <SCmdr_Velal> "We should already some identities half prepared, modifications should not take very long"
  79. [22:09:23] <@IronWolf> Singh: "I'll have to get the Captain's approval, Subcommander, but the Yacht is doable, if a bit flashy."
  80. [22:13:15] <MotharnEndeliv> "Flashiness could add to the persona, I suppose."
  81. [22:14:20] <SCmdr_Velal> "There are a lot of irresponsible people taking inadvisable vacations these days"
  82. [22:14:20] <MotharnEndeliv> "We may also have to requisition Iroto for the investigatory phase. His telepathic abilities would be helpful."
  83. [22:15:49] <@IronWolf> Singh: "And we always have the option of taking it and flying to Risa if things go south, right guys?"
  84. [22:17:20] <MotharnEndeliv> "Risa's a little too obvious. Maybe somewhere in Republic space."
  85. [22:17:35] <@IronWolf> "I hear Cirini Prime has some nice weather this time of year."
  86. [22:18:43] <MotharnEndeliv> "We'll call it a solid plan B."
  87. [22:18:48] SCmdr_Velal frowns
  88. [22:19:03] <SCmdr_Velal> "We are doing this right the first time or not at all"
  89. [22:19:56] <@IronWolf> Singh shuffles awkwardly in her seat, "That was a joke, sir."
  90. [22:20:50] <SCmdr_Velal> "I know"
  91. [22:21:03] SCmdr_Velal smiles
  92. [22:21:16] SCmdr_Velal has an odd sense of humour
  93. [22:22:47] <@IronWolf> Singh: "Riight. Well, unless you guys want to cover anything else, we should go see if we can get the keys to the yacht."
  94. [22:24:00] <MotharnEndeliv> "Good plan."
  95. [22:24:58] <SCmdr_Velal> "Right, I will ask him. I need to know, the identities that I use will be based on our mode of transport"
  96. [22:25:33] <@IronWolf> Jackson's currently on the bridge.
  97. [22:25:47] <SCmdr_Velal> "Let us get to work"
  98. [22:25:51] SCmdr_Velal stands up
  99. [22:26:01] SCmdr_Velal heads to the briage
  100. [22:26:09] MotharnEndeliv follows her
  101. [22:26:11] <SCmdr_Velal> (Which is like the bridge)
  102. [22:26:24] <SCmdr_Velal> (But one letter later)
  103. [22:27:32] <@IronWolf> Iroto is also there, sitting in the counselor's seat. Brann has taken the XO's seat and is talking to Jackson.
  104. [22:28:52] <@IronWolf> Brann: "The reports from Earth aren't looking so hot, man. Your ex is currently on a tear through the command structure. Morale's in the shitter and only five ships are operational. Five! If the Borg come calling tomorrow..."
  105. [22:29:00] SCmdr_Velal unobtrusively moves up behind the captain and is waiting for Brann to finish
  106. [22:29:47] SCmdr_Velal wants to do that thing where you've been there all along and then after like five minutes they suddenly notice and get all jumpy and freaked out
  107. [22:30:08] <@IronWolf> Jackson: "They'll have to fight through at least the 2nd fleet, with elements of the 3rd and 4th. Still, our patrols would be compromised, Starfleet used to trust us to keep an eye on the Oort cloud at least."
  108. [22:30:13] SCmdr_Velal always walks quietly for just that reason
  109. [22:31:08] <@IronWolf> Brann: "It's total bullshit! This is exactly why the EDF was made in the first place, so we wouldn't be compromised by Starfleet!"
  110. [22:31:30] <@IronWolf> Iroto politely coughs, "Afternoon, Subcommander."
  111. [22:31:55] SCmdr_Velal sends angry thoughts at Iroto
  112. [22:32:20] <SCmdr_Velal> "Afternoon"
  113. [22:32:34] <SCmdr_Velal> "Iroto, Brann"
  114. [22:32:48] <SCmdr_Velal> "Captain, may I talk with you for a brief moment"
  115. [22:32:52] <@IronWolf> Brann blinks and twists in his seat, "Oh, hey there Subcommander." He gets out of the seat, "I was just heading out. Demonstrated Romulan superiority recently."
  116. [22:33:10] <@IronWolf> Jackson: "/Brann/. And please, Subcommander."
  117. [22:33:20] <@IronWolf> Iroto just gives you a small, smug smile SCmdr_Velal.
  118. [22:34:48] SCmdr_Velal glares minutely at Iroto.
  119. [22:35:00] <SCmdr_Velal> Let Brann know, he's not even remotely annoying her right now
  120. [22:35:39] <@IronWolf> Brann busies himself out.
  121. [22:35:44] SCmdr_Velal fills in Jackson on the details of the plan, such as they are
  122. [22:36:03] SCmdr_Velal asks Iroto if he would kindly come on the mission
  123. [22:36:15] SCmdr_Velal finishes by asking for use of the yacht
  124. [22:36:30] <@IronWolf> Jackson: "Take the damn thing. It's ostentatious waste mass as far as I'm concerned."
  125. [22:36:42] <@IronWolf> "should have tried to fit a Defiant in there instead."
  126. [22:37:30] <SCmdr_Velal> "I actually cannot find it in myself to disagree with you"
  127. [22:37:56] <@IronWolf> "Make sure to fill out the proper paperwork for it, I know Starfleet loves thier PADD trail."
  128. [22:38:10] <@IronWolf> He says, eying a stack of them perched on his armrest.
  129. [22:38:21] SCmdr_Velal briefly considers finding a way to transfer it into her custody for the duration of her time on Hypatia, and maybe beyond
  130. [22:38:55] <SCmdr_Velal> "I have actually found myself running out of PADDwork lately, I would gladly take some from you sir"
  131. [22:40:19] <@IronWolf> "Unfortunately this all requires my thumbprint."
  132. [22:41:09] <SCmdr_Velal> "Ahh, awfully unfortunate then"
  133. [22:43:48] <SCmdr_Velal> "I will get to work now then"
  134. [22:43:53] SCmdr_Velal turns to Iroto
  135. [22:44:19] <SCmdr_Velal> "Will you be joining use Centurion. I know that the good Doctor would like to have you along"
  136. [22:44:25] <SCmdr_Velal> *us*
  137. [22:45:43] <@IronWolf> Iroto's ears twitch slightly, "Does he now?"
  138. [22:47:39] <SCmdr_Velal> "Yes, he brought the topic up of his own accord"
  139. [22:47:56] <@IronWolf> "Is this an order for me to go or a volunteering opportunity?"
  140. [22:48:34] <SCmdr_Velal> "You may refuse if you wish"
  141. [22:50:00] <@IronWolf> "I suppose I should be there to temper your more... firey proclivities, hm?"
  142. [22:50:05] <@IronWolf> He says, standing up
  143. [22:51:28] <SCmdr_Velal> "Thank you. I will be in touch"
  144. [22:51:39] SCmdr_Velal will light things on fire if she wants to!
  145. [22:53:08] <MotharnEndeliv> So, IronWolf, do you want me to roll for Motharn and Singh Sec Systems?
  146. [22:54:02] <@IronWolf> Well I presume you'll want to wait until you're... actually in orbit.
  147. [22:54:28] <MotharnEndeliv> Ah
  148. [22:55:16] <MotharnEndeliv> In that case, should it be roll deceit for fake IDs instead?
  149. [22:55:44] <SCmdr_Velal> Yes, I just need to know if Valara will be joining us
