Adagio 2/10

[10:38] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: Star Trek Adagio theme plays and the opening scenes scroll by in time to the music.

[10:39] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: The camera pans way back to a vast and endless sea of darkness..by as it is closing in a flicker of light is seen...

[10:40] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: The camera contines to close to eventually see the Avenger along with the Sunchaser. pressing ever forward...

[10:40] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: It has been several days since the last spark of star light has been seen..and not contacts or readings on any instruments...

[10:41] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: Taalia looks out her ready room window..in thought as she begins her log.

[10:43] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: Captain's Log, Stardate 95134.54. Jackson Pearce once wrote about a void ..'“It is beautiful, it is endless, it is full and yet seems empty. It hurts us.” ...I never truly understood what she meant

[10:45] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: when she wrote that until now...We have been in this Dark Sea for a little over a week now...the scope of its vastness..is as terrifying as it is empty. The sheer scope of this ocean of empty is

[10:46] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: humbling. Even now...millions of years after its creation...it is effecting us. Slowly it began to chip away at routine and morale..there is nothing we can do but get through it. Selal and i have

[10:47] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: begun preparations to locate and set up a rally and deployment group for any possible batle group needs...yet we first need to find /any/ location in order to do so.

[10:48] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: However....nothing like this is endless...so we continue on...now heading into LMC Sector 2031. I look forward to its end...and the possibilities that remain to be explored on the other side...

[10:49] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: ...Talia out.

[10:49] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos waves his patient off, smiling... As soon as the door closes, Ankos frowns in determination. He closes the blinds on his window, and turns out the lights. He goes to sit at his desk, closing >

[10:49] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *His eyes.*

[10:49] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -hugs her PADD to her chest as she closes out her log, looking out beyond her window to the eternity of nothing=

[10:50] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren stared at her console.  She looked vaguely perturbed; that which she had thought impossible had happened.  She had run out of dad jokes.*

[10:50] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] -snarls some-

[10:50] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "...What's up, Konmal."

[10:50] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -continues her endless repeated sensor sweeps calmly-

[10:51] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Eren?"

[10:51] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk glances over at Solia before continuing with his report.*

[10:51] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] ...were it not for our insterment readings...we could not even tell we have moved an inch

[10:51] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Running programs to keep team morale up. Doing fun things, doing difficult things, doing things to keep their mind off the morose thats been following them around.*

[10:51] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos presses a button to lock his door, eyes still closed.*

[10:51] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Yep, we're bored too, Konmal."  *She looked at Skye.*  "What is it, Skye?"

[10:52] [DOIC1] Asiani Jaril@Kirawyn: At least if we were in the intergalactic void, we could see *something* out there, even if it's galaxies millions or billions of light years away. But this... *points at the screen and trails off*

[10:52] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: - with a loud series of POPS...Team Six is covered with a large mist of Pink paint that erupts from their lockers as they opened them to prepare for the shift of drills-

[10:52] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Welcome to the vision that the Dark Lady's daughter music have saw...

[10:52] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Why do we have three siency scientist officer on the bridge when there is nothingy to be sciency about?"

[10:52] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he stared into the viewscreen*

[10:53] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Utter silence...devoid of everything that makes life worth living

[10:53] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "To keep each other company?  Would you rather be in the science lab, Skye?"

[10:53] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: We have heard from the Dark Lady herself..that this was never her intent...

[10:54] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *About to open her locker and pauses as she looks over the team.* "Are we attempting to blend in with the people of candy land?"

[10:54] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oki doki! And... I was thinking of other thingy things"

[10:54] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Like what?  If you have any suggestions or ideas, now's the perfect opportunity.  It's not like we've much else to do."

[10:54] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Holodeck!" *claps her hands together*

[10:55] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos' frown deepends.*

[10:55] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Chief Emazoi] -sighs I think this is payback for the shaving cream in the boots we did to Team One

[10:55] [DOIC4] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: *appears to be on the flight deck, in her office*

[10:55] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "While we're on duty?" *she smirked.*  "I think you'd have to get the Captain's permission for that, Skye."

[10:55] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: No...yet...this was one of those who followed that idea

[10:56] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Represses the smirk, says somolenly.* "You shouldn't have poked the beast, less you're ready for it."

[10:56] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Emazoi] -sighs- Paint grenades though?

[10:57] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Running a tricorder scan on her locker looking for surprises.*

[10:57] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: It is an ultimate expression of order..nothing..nothing changes.

[10:57] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk looks down at Skye.* You are currently on duty, Lieutenant.

[10:57] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *nod nods* "That is like why I askeded why three officers must be on duty for the nothingyness. yes?"

[10:57] [DOIC4] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: *stands at the window overlooking the Flight Deck, watching operatins*

[10:58] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: She has gona insane

[10:58] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "It's like war chief, have to be prepared for it." Opens her locker to grab her gear. "Get cleaned up, else you'll be going to training looking like cotton candy."

[10:58] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Image a life withouth struggle or potential, how eventually even the will to live fades away as life held not more meaning...eaach life and light simple giving up and fading away...

[10:59] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She glanced up at Sevuk and then back at Skye.*  "He does have a point though, y'know.  Even if we're not doing anything we're still obligated to man our posts.  But... if it was, say, a morale...

[10:59] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Emazoi] -nods- Yes Chief...-to his team- Okay lets go Six..clean up and prep for drills

[10:59] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: and team building exercise..."

[10:59] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Has she..or is she is a mirro of the darkest fears we each hold in our hearts?

[10:59] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: She played on such....fed on them

[10:59] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Goes looking for the beast to see what Team One is up too.*

[11:00] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Did she?

[11:00] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Sulks her wings a little*

[11:01] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: -Tia and Team One are curretnly prepping to be Opfor for Team six-

[11:01] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Feaar of pain and loss ccan be overwhelming..some cannot cope.

[11:02] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: He is right Skye, we are on duty.. But after? You're free to do whatever you want.

[11:02] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -nods- I agree...You know i do not speak about the Lady...I am speaking of this Dark

[11:03] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Skye? -not looking up from her sensor scans-

[11:03] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Walking over to the team.* "Hmm, seems we had a incident with team six. Unexplained paint detonation."

[11:03] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She shrugged at Skye.*  "I tried."

[11:03] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "But but but... Could we not do our duty eqyalishyly as goodish if we did something not doing nothing for our entire watch and using three officer for the nothingy nothingness th... >

[11:03] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: > Yes ma'am commander?"

[11:04] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] I am in need of your assistance in a personal matter...one you can assit me here on the bridge

[11:04] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Ooo, Yay! What can I help with ma'am captain?"

[11:04] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Tia] Oh? That is strange...how could such a thing have happened?

[11:04] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Commander

[11:05] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Today...or more effecrively tonight is my Birthday. I have not celebrated it in 13 years...so I require someone of your talent and skill...to prepare a surprise party for me this evening after

[11:05] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: watch

[11:06] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren peered at Solia.*  "How is it a surprise party if you tell her to throw it?"

[11:06] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "We may never know. Though they were complaining about it, despite bringing it on themselves. They should embrace set backs as motivation to do better. Press that upon them."

[11:07] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Looks happy and excited again, sitting up propperly and idly moving her wings in thought* "Yes ma'am commander, I will make a super surpricy party!"

[11:07] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: However there is something i do not understand sister...what would make her go to such an extreme...such a void..leaves her nothing to...feel...to embrace if there is no one left to feel

[11:08] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -as she works- I am very difficult to surprise and prepare for...so this will take research and effort to do this correct and be....super duper fun

[11:09] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oki doki ma'am commander" *smiles happily*

[11:09] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well, Skye, it's a challenge it seems."  *She booped a button on her console.  Not that she even really needed to.*

[11:09] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: It does seem contraditory.

[11:10] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] You must still stand your watch...but I have it in good confidence that the captain will approve this project. You may recruit whomever you require for suh a task

[11:11] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Which is why i suggested her lack of sanity..-looks over to her- Do you understand why she would do such a thing?

[11:11] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Tia] One question first chief?

[11:11] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk arches an eyebrow at Solia.*

[11:11] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Go ahead."

[11:11] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Maybe she does not believe and end will actually come?

[11:11] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oki doki! How many many years do you become, ma'am commander?"

[11:12] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -quirks a brow at her and says plainly- I will be 89

[11:13] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren paused.*  "Huh.  Guess I'm not the oldest."

[11:13] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Maybe she hopes to use this a proof of her own vision to regain the favor of the Dark Lady?

[11:13] [DOIC4] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: Hmmmm...

[11:14] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: You conceal the length of your existence well, commander.

[11:14] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: =nods- this has occured to me...Ive had to think about this on a much grander scale...given the scope of time involved with such beings

[11:14] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =nods- this has occured to me...Ive had to think about this on a much grander scale...given the scope of time involved with such beings

[11:14] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "And I am not second most yeaaries either!"

[11:15] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Tia] -smiles- May sheep again be used as 'training aids'?

[11:15] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: -Team One all brighen up at her question-

[11:15] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *POnders it for s moment.* "Yes."

[11:15] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos grips his desk. He feels an almost primordial fear come over him, but he doesn't move. He has to do this.*

[11:16] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Tia] -her eyes ge a littler wider and a wicked gleam eners them- Ma'am yes ma'am~

[11:16] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Why Mister Sevuk..I do not think your current mate of choice would approve of you flirting with me

[11:17] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Still though...shouldnt she have felt the shift ...the change?

[11:17] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren snickered.*  "A long stare into the void can do strange things to the mind, apparently."

[11:17] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he shook his head*

[11:18] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Beeps on her console. Doing her 'job'*

[11:18] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: That was not an attempt at such an action, commander.

[11:19] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Mister Sevuk knows better than to incite Dawson to violence," *she smirked as she pressed buttons.*

[11:20] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -walks over to the chessboard and studies it - Tell me sister...do you think she can be reached?

[11:20] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos smirks a bit.*

[11:21] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: You know I will say that anything is possible.

[11:22] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Carry on Chief." Goign to the control room to monitor and adjust training as it goes forward.*

[11:22] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -moves her Knight into an attack position- and you know I am still going to try anyways yes?

[11:22] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: I do.

[11:23] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Tia] Yes Chief...we'll give ya a good show -leads her team into the sim...Team Six follows looking all ne and shiny and very pale-

[11:23] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: It will make you a target.

[11:23] [DOIC1] Asiani Jaril@Kirawyn: *raises her eyebrows in surprise*

[11:24] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: On both sides it would seem...-studies the board still- ...not the first time that has happened

[11:24] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Oh I see..so now you are saying you do no find me worthy of such an action if I am to understand you Lieutenant?

[11:25] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: ANything worth doing is always ...difficult

[11:26] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Those poor damned souls."

[11:26] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "You are a cruel, cruel woman, Solia..."  *She eyed her appreciatively.*

[11:26] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I think she is very nice"

[11:26] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -nods oce to Eren- It is nice to be appreciated by someone Lieutenant

[11:26] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: No, commander. I believe that would be an incorrect implication.

[11:26] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] and thank you as well Skye

[11:26] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: So as a counter question..how exactly do you go about dealing with children that are misbehaving and abusing thier gifts?

[11:27] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] [to Sevuk- So you again reverse your opinion and do find me phyically attractive then Lieutenant?

[11:28] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -smirks- In my keth....our toys were taken away from us and we were given a time out to think about what we had done wrong

[11:28] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *smiles*

[11:29] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Sevuk,,,tread lightly dude..tread lightly

[11:29] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Perhaps this is something similar...

[11:30] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "It's always a trap," *she nodded at Konmal.*

[11:30] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Quit playing her game. *he finally said, leaning back in the chair*

[11:30] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -nods- In a way we have already begun to take away her toys...

[11:30] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Wingman to the rescue, eh Kodor?"

[11:30] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: I believe I was not clear...

[11:31] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -looks up- Go on...did I misunderstand something?

[11:31] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: I meant for being like this Dark..perhaps she views it as disciplining us for abusing the gifts we were given.

[11:31] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: You are again placing statements in my accord that I did not make, commander. I merely posited that you had navigated the passage of time in an impressive manner.

[11:32] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -blinks and pauses letting this sink in-

[11:33] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: I beleive an sentinment expressed by the Dark Lady as well..so perhaps the motif and pattern is similar.

[11:33] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he shrugged at Eren* Depends, pretty soon he'll be pretty deep in the hole.

[11:34] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "You can only do so much."

[11:35] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Now shh, we're getting to the good part. *he waits*

[11:36] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren nodded, leaning back in her chair and crossing a leg over the other one.*

[11:37] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Yes....yes...which would fit what she is doing here...on an exeme level none the less

[11:38] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] so again you find my phsyical appearance...to be agreable..yes?

[11:38] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: It is an approach i had not...considered...-scowls some-

[11:39] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] You can lead a razor bear to water..but you can not make one drink it

[11:39] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Agreeable would be an acceptable idiom.

[11:40] [DOIC4] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -walks out of hte flight deck office- I'm heading to the bridge. -To no one in particular. Anyone who was close by-

[11:40] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: He's still growing, let him learn. *he said nonchalantly*

[11:40] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] so then my initial assessment of your statement was then true...i see

[11:41] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: It is not an esay perspective to see.

[11:41] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: No...not at all. How does one ... turn the tables on the parent..if one is in a constant state of a time out?

[11:42] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Petty officer harding] Okay CAG

[11:42] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Eagerly types on her console*

[11:42] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Rebel harder?  -shrugs-  I am sure you will think of something.

[11:43] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: -the simulation is utter chaos as the initial amush of team six takes them by surprise as they soon find themselves beseiged by a squad of Killer Klowns-

[11:43] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: A compliment is not necessarily a flirtatious action, commander.

[11:43] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Speaking of rebelling..have you ever ask the Dark Lady about her daughter and what they were like as a family..before it all came apart?

[11:43] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -Chuckles some- This may be more difficult for me...I was always the good child...i was not the rebeling type

[11:44] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Only in passing once...right before the Battle Of Angels...i tried to get her to think of that time...but she was evasive...for obvious reasons back then

[11:44] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Talia...the good girl...I am having a hard time envisioning it.  -smirks-

[11:45] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -smirks- I was horrible...a true conformist back then....perfec and precise in every way

[11:45] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: So, what happened?

[11:45] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: You want flirty, see Ankos. Not sevuk. Sevuk's not a good example..

[11:45] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Vega

[11:46] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: well...Chimera...and then Vega

[11:46] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Besides, Solia, I think you'd much rather have compliments paid to you by someone with the years to appreciate an exceptional woman of your experience..."

[11:46] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Loose of faith, then?

[11:47] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk arches an eyebrow.*

[11:47] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =sighs some- ...i had to grow up fast...you might say.

[11:47] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: a loss of bein niave

[11:47] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren tapped at her console nonchalantly.*

[11:49] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren gasped suddenly, sitting up straight and looking over her shoulder.*

[11:49] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] So in your opinion then Sinez..Ankos is a talented flirt?

[11:50] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: I am sorry we could not do more to help you quadmate..as we recovered him...

[11:50] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: I suppose we all had hoped it would turn out differently than it did.

[11:50] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he glanced at Eren* You good? *To Solia* Better than the vulcan stnading in the back.

[11:51] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -sadly nods- Yes...i..i believe there was not much left of him after all of that time Xae...

[11:51] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She reached around to touch her back.*  "Yeah... I think so.  I could have sworn that just now someone with hands like ice just ran their finger down my spine."

[11:51] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -sadly nods- Yes...i..i believe there was not much left of him after all of that time Xae...

[11:52] [DOIC4] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: *steps into the turbolift* Bridge.

[11:52] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] =eyes Sinez- Was he far more flatering when he flirted with you Sinez than Mister Sevuk whenhe flirted with me just now?

[11:52] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: not everyone could have coped as you have with that sense of loss.

[11:52] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he looked over again* I don't know what to say Eren, nobody walked over there.

[11:53] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *holds up a PADD towards Solia* "Ma'am commander Solia? Can you please signy sign this without looky looking? Pleeease?"

[11:53] [DOIC1] Asiani Jaril@Kirawyn: *snerks*

[11:53] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "It's probably nothing.  Skye, did you feel anything just now?  Telepathically?"

[11:53] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: ....I had...speical help...something he refused

[11:54] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Doctor? feel anything just now as well?

[11:54] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: his pan had him push everyone left in his life..away

[11:54] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: pain*

[11:54] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Nooo?"

[11:54] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: I am not ssaying these things to be insenstive or to dredge up an unpleasant past, but to rather to try recall when you in those dark places

[11:55] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She shrugged.*  "Could just be my mind playing tricks on me.  This void is... disquieting."

[11:55] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk looks down at Skye.* It is unwise to sign documentation without reading it first.

[11:55] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: inside yourself..

[11:56] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he sighed* Could be.

[11:58] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos sighs heavily, rubbing his temples.*

[11:58] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She ground her teeth, going back to beeping on her console.*

[11:59] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: I....used my duty as my shield...my ship..my Keth...my new keth I ...mean..-trails off a moment in thought-

[11:59] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Is somethingy wrong, Eren?" *Looks conserned at Eren*

[11:59] [DOIC1] Asiani Jaril@Kirawyn: *looks up* No, nothing that I'm aware of.

[11:59] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -looks at Xae- I ...hid

[12:00] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Nothing other than what I already told you about, Skye."

[12:00] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: -nods-

[12:00] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: When confronted with my pain...i hid behind my duty...my ship...to refuse to see it to deal with it

[12:00] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: A mirror of the dark places inside each of us...

[12:02] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -nods= ..which only shows us...what we can not help but see by not deling withit ourselves

[12:02] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: we end up ina an endless cycle to perpetuate that reflection ourselves

[12:02] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Ooo... Oki doki, I will tellsies if I feel anything!"

[12:03] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren nodded, offering the little woman a smile.*

[12:04] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Smiles happily to Eren and idly flutters her wings*

[12:05] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] So Mister sevuk...when do you plan on telling Lieutenant Dawson?

[12:05] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: What would I inform her of?

[12:05] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -finally arrives on the bridge-

[12:06] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos stands up and puts the lights back on. He plasters on a smile and starts filling his mind with thoughts of happy cute things like Skye, Ynera and Mr. Boggles. Nobody would know his real >

[12:06] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -quirks a brow- Of your appreciation of my physical form.

[12:06] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Feelings. He opens the door and heads to the holodecks... starting to prepare something.*

[12:06] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he threw a hand into the air, leaning back in the seat* Sevuk. stop.

[12:06] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Ma'am commander Solia?" *Keeps holding up the appropriately sized PADD*

[12:07] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Now you're just gloating, Solia."

[12:07] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [SOlia] So I should not ...end zone celebrate?

[12:07] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos works quietly on the holodeck, smiling, his thoughts going to what he talked of with Skye.*

[12:07] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Yes Skye?

[12:07] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "As much as we'd all like to bear witness to that, there's still Mister Sevuk's feelings to consider," *she smirked.*

[12:08] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Can you please signy sign this thingy thing without looky at it?"

[12:08] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Indeed...thank you Eren

[12:08] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *While doing his job, Ankos presses on his commbadge.* =^= "Counselor Itri to Captain Talia?"

[12:08] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She shot her a wink.*

[12:08] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: It is not wise to sign documentation without reading it.

[12:09] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: You don't trust little skye's documents?

[12:09] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -looks up to the ceiling and then to Xae- well that did not take too long this time

[12:09] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Mhm, because our Skye is definitely planning on selling Solia's organs on the Ferengi exchange."

[12:09] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: -smiles-

[12:09] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "That is so mean!"

[12:09] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -nods and does so- There you go Skye

[12:10] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= Go ahead Counselor

[12:10] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Beams happily* "Thank you ma'am commander!" *hugs the PADD and retursn to working*

[12:10] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Skye?

[12:10] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Yes ma'am commander?"

[12:11] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] How well does your project progress?

[12:11] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: =^= "That matter I asked your permission of. It is done. I want to ask you something about yourself... and say a few things. Of course, when it is convenient for you."

[12:11] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "What project?"

[12:11] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he chuckled* Nicely played.

[12:11] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia[ -nods once- Tha is he correct answer...carry on Lieutenant

[12:11] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos smiles, looking at some silk curtains.*

[12:12] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= Whenever you so choose counselor..it is not like we are currently swamped

[12:12] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: It is not a matter of trust, but logic.

[12:13] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: =^= "Thank you, Captain. I will be up in a bit."

[12:13] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: In this case it's definitely trust.

[12:13] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos saves the holodeck sim, then exits and heads for the lift.*

[12:13] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= Understood...Talia out

[12:13] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -looks to ae and smirks- Dont say it...

[12:13] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Xae*

[12:14] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Yes ma'am commander! Scanny scanny nothingy thingys... scany scany..." *beeps her console*

[12:14] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Keep digging Sevuk...

[12:14] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren swapped her legs over the other, idly considering pie fillings as she let her boot sway in the air.*

[12:14] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Bridge." *Ankos starts the ride up.*

[12:14] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: -remains silent-

[12:14] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -seems to be just watching proceedings for the moment-

[12:15] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: You too Miss Ada

[12:15] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he smiles at T'ruri* Welcome commander.

[12:15] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -looks at the board and then Xae-...did you move?

[12:15] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I do not have an object to dig into any soil, Lieutenant.

[12:16] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos walks onto the bridge. He nods at the people he knows, smiling a bit at Skye.*

[12:16] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *waves to Ankos*

[12:16] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She nodded back at Ankos, glancing over at Skye with a raised brow.*

[12:16] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Ankos is smiling....that is not a good sign

[12:16] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Perhaps I did -smirks-

[12:16] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos waves back. He then shoots Solia a quick, appreciative glance, before heading to the Captain's ready room.* "Ha-ha, Konmal."

[12:16] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: What did you do this time? *he said after him*

[12:16] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -narrows her eyes at her- That is cheating

[12:17] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -nods to Ankos once-

[12:17] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Nothing to worry about, Kodor."

[12:17] [DOIC1] Asiani Jaril@Kirawyn: *looks up from her PADD and greets Ankos as he passes*

[12:17] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos returns the nods, then buzzes the ready room.*

[12:17] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Right, definitely nothing to wory about now.

[12:17] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -walks back over to her desk to rerieve her mug of tranya-

[12:17] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Enter

[12:18] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos walks in, nodding at the two.* "Captain, Commander."

[12:18] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Wonder what he's confessing this time..." *she muttered.*

[12:18] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] and into the skipper's ready room...yeah..this will go well

[12:18] [DOIC1] Asiani Jaril@Kirawyn: *looks at Sinez* Hmm, he addressed you by your surname only. That's either rude or ominous.

[12:19] [DOIC1] Asiani Jaril@Kirawyn: It's at the least disrespectful of your station and rank. I'll have to have a word with him.

[12:19] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: -Team Six eventually overcomes the Clown attack and soon finds themselves in a wide field of sheep...only to discover under the sheep...and their own boots...that they have entered a minefield..full

[12:19] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: of bleeting sheep-

[12:20] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren rolled her eyes.*

[12:20] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Probably tattling on who atethe most pie.. *he then looked at Asiani* I.. didn't find it disrespectful.

[12:20] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Counselor...-takea a sip of her drinks and heads back over towards her chess board- What can I do for you this time?

[12:20] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -nods at Sinez, but did not speak*

[12:20] [DOIC1] Asiani Jaril@Kirawyn: Well, as his department head, I did, so I'll still have a word with him.

[12:21] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I just want to report in on how that talk I asked you to authorize went... I trust the XO knows of what has been going on the past few weeks?"

[12:21] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He looks to the Commander respectfully.*

[12:21] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -smirks- You would be amazed abou how much she knows Counselor....so how did it go this time around?

[12:21] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he nodded* As you wish, it's your department, just know that I did not find it one bit disrespectful.

[12:22] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "She was as friendly and respectful as always... And, well. Just as contradictory of herself as always. Between the two of us, it's almost like some sort of personality disorder."

[12:23] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: You are surrpised by this?

[12:23] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "No. But it's on the topic that it was about this time."

[12:24] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "You know. The night Delmos came aboard. Do you remember, you called me down to shuttle bay and I immediately ran for it?"

[12:24] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Yes

[12:25] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I felt something was wrong... and then she contacted me. She begged me not to let this innocent life fade away. She wanted me to help him. Surely, she must have known he's an enemy of hers and he >

[12:25] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Heh..."

[12:25] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Would show us that vision. Which brings me to another thing. She owned up to the emotonless Xert being her servants, and to the Black ocean being her doing. She expressed regret over it, but said>

[12:25] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -smirks- Did she now

[12:26] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Team one keeps them pinned down..running a proper ambush...forcing team six to treat the minefield as a serious situation...despite the sheep-

[12:26] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It was neccessary... The more I talk to her, the more I see two sides of her, Captain. The kind one, and... the other one. Suffocating her."

[12:26] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson]...-smirks- ....well it was unexpected...

[12:27] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It's like she's... struggling with herself."

[12:27] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "No one expects the sheep."

[12:27] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] ...they were banned..im surprised to see them honestly

[12:28] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *A slight smirk crept upon her lips.*

[12:28] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Oh In what way?

[12:28] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "I figured we needed to lighten things up a little bit. This place we're in seems to be sapping at us."

[12:28] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -smiles and nods- It was a good call Chief...ive not seen Team One smile this much lately

[12:29] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I feel like... there's a good part of her. The one that wanted me to save Delmos. The one that makes her even talk to me instead of snap my neck. Because honestly, I'd doubt anybody has questioned >

[12:29] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -tries not to smile at the sound of countless sheep bleating as Team Six works through them to get through the minefield-

[12:30] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Her as much as I have in millenia. Maybe longer... anyways, I need to talk to her more. Maybe what she just needs is a good counselor... even if I seriously doubt that. But there is another thing. >

[12:30] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Something concerning you."

[12:30] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -smirks- Me? How so?

[12:31] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Yes, sometimes it's good to smile."

[12:31] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "She... well. She told me of Avynei tech. She showed me a vision of... the technology Lt. Cmdr. Decia of the Sentinel uses. She told me it... affects people. Turns them into weapons.">

[12:31] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] ...i have a feeling another few days of this..and the harpy may show up again

[12:31] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She covered her mouth with the back of her hand very briefly.*

[12:31] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Happily rubs her palms together and smiles in joy, showing the tips of her fangs against her lower lip*

[12:32] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "And... Captain. Not that I mean to be rude, but... your arm. Is it... a weapon? What is it, technology-wise?"

[12:32] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -sets her jaw at this as she listens-

[12:32] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk looks down at Sereya curiously.*

[12:32] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: My forearm...is...-pasues for dramtic effect-....a arifical..forearm

[12:33] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -lifts up her arm and wiggles her non weaponzied figners-

[12:33] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Another reason to take off the edge before things get out of hand.*

[12:33] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos takes a sigh of relief.* "I knew it, I just... had to hear it from you."

[12:33] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She dropped her hand, straightening her face and trying to look serious.*

[12:33] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Anyways, she claims that her Mother is... well, just as bad as her. She referenced the Avynei not being what they seem, in relation to what I talked you about after they came aboard to meet Delmos."

[12:34] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: I was given the options of finger missles..but them...after five shots..what do i do then?

[12:34] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos shakes his head, chuckling a bit at that.* "Well... A metal arm is a good club?"

[12:34] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *But it was easily ruined as another smile blossomed on her lips.  She glanced over at Skye.*

[12:35] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -smirks- So she has a problem with the Avynei...no real surprise there i suppose

[12:35] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Happily smile to Eren and waves her wings*

[12:35] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] I agree

[12:35] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She chuckled, looking back at the blank space on her console.*

[12:35] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "None at all. But I want to research what she said about them not being what they seem. I just wanted to report in that I am still alive and point you out to the directions my thoughts and research >

[12:35] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson[ I wonder if that is also the point of this stupid black sea

[12:36] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Will be taking..." *He smiles a bit.* "Oh, and give you invites to a birthday party!"

[12:36] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he merely glanced over at the sound to his right coming from the trill*

[12:36] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -blinks- Birthday party? for who?

[12:36] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Lieutenant Commander Solia. Me and Skye are doing kind of a surprise party thingy for her, and Skye asked me to invite you two there as well. "

[12:37] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -smirks- Counselor...the Commander's Birthday is in November

[12:37] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Uh. But Skye... Uh."

[12:37] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Ahhh I see

[12:38] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Skye has been purposely mislead...

[12:38] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: I take it Skye is planning the party?

[12:38] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: She has...and I think for good reason

[12:38] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "She is. I just set up the holodeck for it so we can use it after the shift ends."

[12:38] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Laying out traps to trip up the unwary."

[12:38] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Something you should take as a cautinary tale for yourself mister Ankos...

[12:39] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] and a constant reminder of her power

[12:39] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Looks at Solia thoughtfully*

[12:39] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "I know, Commander. That is why I am researching everything and anything I possibly can to give me more insight to the things I learn in my talks with Lady Dark."

[12:40] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -is hard at work doing her endless and repeated sensor sweeps-

[12:40] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "I thought it was to remind us of the large hole where her brain use to be. My mistake."

[12:40] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Research, ffrom what sources?

[12:40] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -laughs and shakes her head- Now you sound like the skipper about this dark

[12:40] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Mythology, from all peoples in the LMC. Reports from other ships, even started watching badly-translated Yanda historical documentaries."

[12:41] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: And you consider those sources as proof enough?

[12:41] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Dosen't hurt to share the same view on the enemy."

[12:41] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Two million year old myths are...shakey at best

[12:41] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Of course not. But sometimes, it helps. Plus, I got to talk to our Avynei friends."

[12:42] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] So you arno exactly on Team Ankos then eh?

[12:42] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: How are more than they seem, right?

[12:42] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I know, Captain. That is why I am doing that comparative database. Trying to find the seed of truth the myths grew from."

[12:42] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Shrugs.* "I am just retelling what I was told today. I am not saying I do believe it. I am also saying I do not. I am trying to be as neutral as possible in my approach to this."

[12:43] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Cannot say that I am. If he wants a girlfriend I'm sure we can find him out more suitable."

[12:43] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Itri..does the Lady Dark strike you like any other being you have encountered?

[12:44] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Shakes his head.* "Of course not."

[12:44] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Then why are you trying to frame her as such?

[12:45] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Because this is something nobody seems to have actually tried."

[12:47] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren tapped her boot in a little rhythm against her console.*

[12:47] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Have they know..in all the millions upon millions of years..your are a true trail blazer...

[12:48] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "

[12:48] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Well, according to her, it was tried, and failed, due to one of her followers' rash judgement and stupidity... But has combat worked? For all those millions of years?"

[12:49] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Also..you are not approaching this as "neutral" as possible..you have a strong bias in what you would like to the eventual outcome of your efforts.

[12:49] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: You have made that very plain with your intial encounter with her...

[12:50] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "I have a bias in that. But I have no bias in whose words or stories I trust."

[12:50] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Only that you want the goal to be and the items that will further that goal..

[12:51] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I want the truth, commander. If the truth doesn't align with my goal, it will not make me happy, but I will share that truth."

[12:51] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: and if there is not universal truth to be had, what then?

[12:52] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -chuckles- I thought he was interested in that cute Yanda woman?

[12:52] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "If there's not an universal truth and it's just a stupid war, like al the others, with two sides who will never agree on peace... then I am still Keth. Then I stay loyal to my Keth and put an end to>

[12:52] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Maybe she can work some sense into his head."

[12:52] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "My efforts."

[12:53] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Well Itri..when it come to perspective and emotions, I believe you will find "universal truth" in short supply.

[12:54] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -sips her drink as she quietly listens to the exchange=

[12:54] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "I am old enough to know that. However, I do want to believe we can end this without even more death."

[12:55] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Of course, that  begs the question. How does one date someone who lives under water."

[12:56] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: What death have you been witness to since you have been with us?

[12:56] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] Well...they are not unlike us in someway...she breathes air like we do..the Yanda are basically mammalian

[12:57] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks over to Ankos at this-

[12:57] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Hm, won't she dry out."

[12:57] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "The death of an Adagio officer... and her resurrection. And I've heard and read endless tales and reports on what other things have transpired in this million year war."

[12:57] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -looks over to Ankos at this-

[12:57] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: ...two...and then some..a lot of some

[12:58] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: but nothgin you have born withness to..only what other have told.

[12:58] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -chuckles- I think that is what the bio suits are for

[12:58] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "Yes. And I would rather this war end without me bearing witness to more."

[12:59] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Since you mentioned the captains arm..have you asked her how that happened?

[12:59] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Ï know it has to do with a servant of the Dark. Mr. Diamond."

[12:59] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Strange, but thats between them. Hope it works out."

[12:59] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "But... I do not know the whole story."

[1:00] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Itri..there is a reason our starships have weapon systems...

[1:00] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "I know that."

[1:00] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: I do not think you really do...-goes silent for Talia to have her time now-

[1:01] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] Why Chief....you are a hopless romantic at heart

[1:02] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Bah." Grunts.

[1:02] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren definitely wasn't playing Romulan Tetris.*

[1:02] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -looks to him- We dont start the wars Counselor...we end them

[1:02] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.*

[1:03] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] Dont worry...your secret is safe with me

[1:03] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Types on her console while softly huming a song to herself*

[1:03] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Tracy] -notes Eren is playing Romulan Tetris.hoping no one noticed...but they did-

[1:04] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: I am curious...why did you never ask me how it happened Counselor?

[1:04] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I don't want to be too pushy."

[1:04] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -sevuk's console chirps indicating he has a text message-

[1:06] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Well....its a little late for that counselor...wouldnt you think? I mean you were worried my arm was a weapon

[1:06] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That is... not the same as making you recall the whole thing."

[1:07] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Unless...asking if it was one...based on what hapened...did so already -says evenly-

[1:07] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "I hope so. Mr. Boggles might recieve a toy sheep to chew on... late one night."

[1:07] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -chuckles- Now there is an image

[1:07] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "...True. I'm sorry, Captain. My mind has a million things racing in it right now."

[1:08] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] Do you think he wuld call in Delta again to act as CSI for him?

[1:08] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Which is just what she might want of you son

[1:08] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Remember I did say...see the entire board

[1:08] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Long sigh.* "I can already see myself interrogating mr. Boggles."

[1:09] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk reads the message.*

[1:09] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -audio file opens and plays from his console [  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDZX4ooRsWs&feature=youtu.be&t=16  ] -

[1:09] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "That is why my mind is constantly on the things she says and on what I read and hear and discover about them from other sources. I even forgot Pie day last week."

[1:10] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] looks over to Sevuk at this-

[1:10] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren glanced up.*

[1:10] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -looks up and quirks a single brow at him-

[1:10] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Looks at Sevuk*

[1:10] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos raises an eyebrow.* "Captain... are you hearing that, or am I going mad?"

[1:11] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "You surprise us more and more every day, Mister Sevuk..."  *She snickered.*

[1:11] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk attempts to shut down the music.*

[1:12] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he turns around, letting a sigh escape* Not this again..

[1:12] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -her antennae rise up and she closes her eyes and looks up at the ceiling- ...I believe the tedium has awoken something

[1:12] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -the music instantly shuts off-

[1:12] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: This appears to be a prank of some kind.

[1:12] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Sir Svuk?I do not think that is super duper bridgy bridge good music?"

[1:12] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Really?

[1:12] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I did not activate it, Lieutenant.

[1:12] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Yes sevuk.. I agree.. should've seen this coming.

[1:13] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She covered her mouth with the back of her hand.*

[1:13] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk looks for the source of the message.*

[1:13] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oki doki, Maybe we can listen to somethingy else?"

[1:13] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -Message sent at the current Stardate by a M.Boggles-

[1:13] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos clears his throat. Clearly, he has no idea what to say.*

[1:13] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Ada ->Ummm...maybe?

[1:14] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -looks back down and rubs the bridge of her nose- Ada...what was the musical piece selected this time?

[1:14] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Ada -> This...  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDZX4ooRsWs&feature=youtu.be&t=16

[1:15] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "What is an Eifeltower?"

[1:15] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -blinks- Ada...cease playback...immediately

[1:15] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Ada -> Ok!

[1:15] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Uh. What would the Anaconda want?"

[1:15] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "A type of tower, I think?"

[1:15] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oki doki"

[1:16] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -looks to Ankos a long moment- ....something new for you to research Counselor

[1:16] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: -Ada terminates the musical playback immediately-

[1:16] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Sighs.* "Oh, no, this is some weird human thing again."

[1:17] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Everything about them is...weird Lor'vela love them...everything

[1:17] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Everything about them is...weird Lor'vela love them...everything

[1:17] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Ada, who edited the computer log to attempt to implicate a canine sent this message?

[1:17] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] You believe your pet is being framed?

[1:17] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "True enough..." *He stands awkwardly, not sure what more to say, his mind still processing what he heard.*

[1:18] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: The log states it was sent from Mister Boggles.

[1:18] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Ankos....although I authorized this...attempt at communication with her..be careful...she will most likely fill your head with paranoia based half truths

[1:18] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: so be sure to give her nothing in return...no knowledge of what truly matters to you...nothing she can use against you or us

[1:19] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "Yes, Captain."

[1:19] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: I think it is a bit late for that, captain...

[1:19] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: I do as well...unfortunately

[1:20] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Ankos...just look out a window...and understand what you are trying to reason with and put into a box to understand

[1:20] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos sighs.* "Yes..."

[1:21] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Do you have anything else for me then?

[1:21] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Just the one question. Should I tell Skye you're coming to the surprise not-birthday party?"

[1:22] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -smiles- Of course I would not miss it

[1:22] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods, a small smile appearing on his face.* "And you, Commander?"

[1:22] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren peered at her own leg, mentally playing Connect The Spots.*

[1:22] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: I will consider it.

[1:22] [DOIC1] Asiani Jaril@Kirawyn: *keeps tapping on her PADD, focused on research, not paying attention to her surroundings*

[1:23] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: smirks amused by that-

[1:23] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he pulls his hand off his face and looks at Sevuk* It's only you..

[1:23] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos smiles.* "Thank you both for your time and advice."

[1:24] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -nods- You are welcome Counselor..I do appreciate your efforts..just be careful to remember...there are sides here

[1:24] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: You are not a neutral

[1:25] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Not in this

[1:25] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I already said. I am Keth.'

[1:25] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -smiles- I do not question your loyalty to your shipmates Ankos

[1:25] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: I can see that already

[1:26] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: What do you mean, commander?

[1:26] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods and smiles.* "If that is all, I will go tune up the party holo further."

[1:26] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Carry on..make the party a good one then...dismissed

[1:27] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods at both women and exits.*

[1:27] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Open a message, Suprise! It's a prank! Ever thought about, 'hey, let's not open this strange message?'

[1:28] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Uh... that song about the Anaconda thing... Yeah. We heard it."

[1:28] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "...We?"  *She looked at Ankos.*  "You mean it played in the Captain's hidey hole, too?"

[1:28] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Nah Sinez....that would make sense

[1:29] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he groaned* Great.

[1:29] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Uh. I won't... ask. I think... I'll go do some stuffs. See you guys."

[1:29] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= Captain to Commander Kodor?

[1:29] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he allowed his head to roll back* =^= Go ahead.

[1:30] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos starts riding the lift down.*

[1:30] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= Commander..am I to believe the pre-party is being held on my bridge..given i thought i heard music?

[1:31] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk shakes his head.*

[1:32] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he closed his eyes while he listened* No captain, there is no such thing ocuring on the bridge.

[1:32] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: -Team six is finally defeatd mid shee minefield-

[1:32] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: sheep*

[1:32] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "And boom, down there go. It looks like the distraction was too much for them."

[1:33] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= I see...well tell Mister Sevuk to get a grip on his 'annaconda' until the official start of the party please Commander

[1:33] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos is working on various things on the holosim, sighing sadly that he won't get to jump out of a cake naed.*

[1:33] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: ((Naked*))

[1:33] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: =^= I'll ensure the message gets across.

[1:33] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk tilts his head.*

[1:33] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= Also..lets cal up beta watch and begin standing down Alpha Sinez

[1:33] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren pressed her hand to her mouth to keep from bursting out laughing again.*

[1:34] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *tries to look very busy every tiem the word party is said*

[1:34] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he picked his head up and looked around the bridge* =^= Understood.

[1:35] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= Thank you Sinez..that will be all

[1:36] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -finds herself smiling none the less- =^= Mister Kodor...one more thing...keep alpha on the bridge a moment until I come out...i need to address something

[1:36] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he rubs his temples* Can we call up Beta watch now, and refrain from opening up anyother mysterious messages for the evening please?

[1:36] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= Captain to Lieutenant Demorrie?

[1:36] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: =^= I'll tell them to hold off then.

[1:37] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he glanced around* Nevermind.

[1:37] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "So... yes to opening up mysterious messages?"

[1:37] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -walks over to her desk and picks up a PADD and two boxes-

[1:37] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he stared at Eren*

[1:37] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She offered an innocent smile.*

[1:38] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: =^= "Demorrie here captain."

[1:38] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *stretches her wings and packs stuffs to her little bridge bag*

[1:38] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= Please come to the bridge

[1:38] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Coming commander?

[1:38] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: =^= "Enroute." Nods to Dawson. "Keep them busy, I'll be back."

[1:39] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -nods- Will do Chief

[1:39] [DOIC5] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *heads up to the bridge to see the Captain. Looking to the other officers as she walks towardws the captains door.*

[1:40] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *heads up to the bridge to see the Captain. Looking to the other officers as she walks towardws the captains door.*

[1:40] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: Coming Xae?

[1:41] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he looked at Lonah from across the bridge*

[1:42] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren gave Talia a nod as she stepped onto the bridge.*

[1:42] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -strides out onto her bridge handing her yeoman a pair of polished oak boxes-

[1:43] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *happily waves the Talia and Xae as they enter the bridge*

[1:43] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he lookedup towardthe captain now, standing giving them both a nod*

[1:43] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks to Sinez- Status report?

[1:43] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Other than the lieutenant's music choice, nothing new.

[1:44] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Good...for now COmmander..assume the doctor's post wil you for this?

[1:44] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *henodded and moved over to his left*

[1:46] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -cooly- Fall in

[1:46] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he looked over his shoulder at him briefly*

[1:46] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Walks over and falls in."

[1:46] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: You can still change your mind captain...

[1:46] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I wonder with him at times

[1:47] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She whispered,* "Don't question it, just head up front."

[1:47] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Mister Sevuk...do you require a formal invitation with calligraphy engraving?

[1:47] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Perhaps he is busy relistening to you musical selection..

[1:48] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he closed his eyes and took a deep breath*

[1:48] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Hardly mine..but i do not judge a man on his horrible choice of music

[1:48] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: The music was not my choice, captain.

[1:48] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *curiously looks to the center of the bridge*

[1:49] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -steps forward with her Yeoman in tow to stand before Lonah-

[1:54] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Nods her head and shakes the Captains hand.* "Thank you captain, it is an honor."

[1:55] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -firmly returns the shake and bows her head and dips her attenea in response- Strength and Honor Chief

[1:56] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Strength and Honor."

[1:56] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -moves with Sacey to stand before Sevuk ..though smirks some with a single shake of her head-

[2:01] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he cringed inside*

[2:01] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk shakes her hand.*

[2:01] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren chuckled softly.*

[2:01] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -firmly returns the shake and bows her head and dips her attenea in response- Strength and Honor Sevuk...-smirked-

[2:04] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] -a loud single cheer- Ooo Rah!

[2:05] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -queitly observes-

[2:05] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Nods to the appaluse.*

[2:06] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "You too Mr. Sevuk."

[2:06] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Xae...I believe this watch has outstayed their time on my bridge, dont you?

[2:06] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Indeed.

[2:06] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks to Skye- I am sure...there are other places they are needed shortly

[2:06] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: Ada -> Beta shift rotation in 5 minutes.

[2:07] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Very true, Captain."  *She looked over at Solia.*  "Shall we see what's in the lounge, Commander?"  *she grinned.*

[2:07] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *innocently offers a shy shrug of her wings*

[2:08] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Actually I was considering taking a shift in the molecular lab this vening...prhaps a rain check Eren

[2:08] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: evening*

[2:09] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "But there is foodsies in the lounge maybe?"

[2:09] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Surely you'd at least want to get a bite to eat first, Commander."

[2:09] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She nodded at Skye.*

[2:12] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: I believe everyone time at standing around like a cadet review is up...dismissed..go...

[2:12] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Leave...live lives

[2:12] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -chuckles-

[2:13] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "What do you think I'm trying to do?" *she smirked.*

[2:13] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Picks up her bag and takes flight*

[2:13] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -shakes her head- I am not hungry at this time..though i thank you

[2:13] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Come on then commanders. To the lift.

[2:14] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She stared at Solia.*  "A drink then, to celebrate the promotions of our colleagues.  I insist."

[2:14] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Well...it would be impolite to refuse so I accept

[2:15] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She hooked an arm in Solia's, grinning as she went to lead her to the lift.*  "That's the spirit!"

[2:15] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Indeed. -hooks her armw ith Eren;s and follows-

[2:16] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *enters the turbolift*

[2:16] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She stepped into the lift with Solia, smiling at Skye.*

[2:16] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Well I have no idea where to go. *he said at the group in the lift*

[2:17] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "To the lounge, of course!" *she declared and called out the deck number.*

[2:17] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smiles down to Xae-

[2:17] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Another one of your bright ideas...

[2:17] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Look at the mess youve gotten me into Stanley

[2:18] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *As the lift doors parted, Eren went to lead Solia off to Echo Lounge.*  "Wonder what today's theme will be..."

[2:19] [DOIC3] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] A theme that helps educate Mister Sevuk on proper drill and ceremony traditions?

[2:20] [DOIC3] Sinez@the5of435: I sometimes wonder if he's even vulcan.. *he muttered as he followed behind them*

[2:20] [DOIC3] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Perhaps he has not yet read that pamphlet?

[2:21] [DOIC3] Sinez@the5of435: Maybe I should label the title as security report for him to give it a proper read.

[2:21] [DOIC3] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Not shaking the skippers hand...sure way to his next promotion

[2:23] [DOIC3] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I did in fact shake her hand, Lieutenant.

[2:24] [DOIC3] Sinez@the5of435: After only what felt like a year.

[2:24] [DOIC3] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Mister Sevuk..you are pirceless

[2:24] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "We wouldn't have him any other way," *she chuckled.*

[2:24] [DOIC3] Sevuk@ClingingMars: It was in fact one minute and 44 seconds.

[2:25] [DOIC3] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Thank you, commander.

[2:25] [DOIC3] Sinez@the5of435: Not even a couple tweaks here and there?

[2:26] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well, maybe one, for Mister Boggles' sake," *she smirked as she headed into the lounge.*

[2:27] [DOIC4] Skye@Illuice: *Flies in to the lounge and innocently sits down on the bar like she normally does*

[2:27] [DOIC3] Sinez@the5of435: And don't forget about us..

[2:28] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Sure, sure," *Eren said with a dismissive hand wave as they got to the decidedly undecorated lounge.*

[2:28] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos has sat down in the holdoeck, waiting for the birthday vulcan to show up.*

[2:28] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -quriks nebrow as she looks about the lounge...curiously-

[2:29] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks downa ther new arm a moment -

[2:29] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "So, what shall we drink to celebrate Mister Sevuk's new hollow pip?  Vulcan brandy?"

[2:30] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: Why don't we let him decide?

[2:30] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: No, i take that back.

[2:30] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] -lifts his drink- Here is to swimming with Bo legged women..and swimming right through their legs!

[2:30] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I was just giving a suggestion," *she smirked.*

[2:30] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] I am not drinking to that

[2:30] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *And then barked a laugh at Konmal.*

[2:30] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracy] Yeahher eis..wait what?

[2:31] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he furrowed his brow* Well alright then.. that just happened.

[2:31] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "But Konmal, you forgot to toast the most important part..."

[2:31] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] -goes to drink and stops- ...what?

[2:32] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] I am curious as well -looks to Eren_

[2:32] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She grinned.*  "Makin' them bow-legged in the first place, kid."

[2:32] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] -thumps his fist on the bar top= Hear hear! -downs his drink-

[2:32] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] -rolls her eyes at the pair-

[2:33] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She clapped Konmal on the shoulder, grinning at Tracey.*

[2:34] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Very well then -drinks to that-

[2:34] [DOIC4] Skye@Illuice: *Picks up her glass and drinks from it*

[2:34] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren followed suit with whatever had ended up in a cup in front of her.*

[2:34] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] =smiles and drinks-

[2:35] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Sevuk...give us a toast

[2:36] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he grinned mainly to himself* Beware the harpy sounds fitting.

[2:36] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] Who wouldve thought in the end..the Harpy turned out to be his own doggy

[2:37] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] so sad...betrayed by his own best friend

[2:37] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: Sevuk your thoughts?

[2:38] [DOIC3] Sevuk@ClingingMars: The harpy is not Mister Boggles.

[2:38] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: The harpy is not Mister Boggles.

[2:39] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] and alas...he is in denial

[2:39] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I'll drink to that, he's too sweet."  *She took another gulp.*

[2:39] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I am not, commander.

[2:39] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] It is the sweet silent ones ya gotta watch wingman -to Eren-

[2:39] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: Keep telling yourself that bud. *he took a sip out of his glass*

[2:41] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She nodded at Konmal.*  "Another trap."

[2:42] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] If the beagle is evil...it is the very trap he would set

[2:42] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: If only he took him out for walks and played with him some more..

[2:43] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Indeed..it is sad to see such neglect has turned the canine out onto the streets to endure a life of crime

[2:43] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: =^= "Counselor Itri to Lieutenant D'leina. Could you come to my office?"

[2:43] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I have done so for Mister Boggles.

[2:43] [DOIC4] Skye@Illuice: =^= "Now?"

[2:43] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] Then what do you think his motive is behind all of this Sevuk?

[2:43] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She glanced over at Skye, giving a little smile.*

[2:44] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: =^= "Uh... is there a problem?"

[2:44] [DOIC4] Skye@Illuice: =^= "Nope. On my waysies!"

[2:44] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: =^= "Itri out."

[2:44] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia]-to Skye- Is there an issue Lieutenant that requires assistance?

[2:45] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: He is not the culprit.

[2:45] [DOIC4] Skye@Illuice: *Finishes her glas with some big sips and puts it down* "Euhmm... I do not thinksies so, ma'am commander"

[2:45] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] You do seem in a rush

[2:46] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She motioned to the bartender to refill Solia's glass.*  "She was just paged, she doesn't want to be rude, after all."

[2:46] [DOIC4] Skye@Illuice: "It would be super duper rude to keep mr councilorankos waiting?" *waves happily and flies away*

[2:47] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Flies in to holodeck 3* "Hi!"

[2:47] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Hey!" *Ankos gives Skye a quick hug, then motions over to his creation.* "Do you like it?"

[2:47] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Indeed -takes a drink from her refilld glass-

[2:47] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *hugs Ankos*

[2:48] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She offered Solia a grin.*  "So, Commander... I hope you didn't really have plans to flee to the science lab.  I was rather hoping you'd care to join me for a... program of mine."

[2:49] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren paused, then went to take another drink.*

[2:49] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: It is super nice!

[2:49] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] might i inquire about the nature and theme of this program?

[2:49] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he leaned on the bar, listening with interest*

[2:50] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Yes! I worked hard to make it like you said... So, how will we get miss Solia in here?"

[2:50] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Eren does that!"

[2:50] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I just need to replicate my giftsie for her!"

[2:50] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "Have a seat, then." *He motions over to the table.* "The cake the Doctor baked is already in her... Oh, no, I knew I forgot something!"

[2:51] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I need to replicate a gift too and I don't know what she likes..."

[2:51] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I giving her a silky silk nightgown!"

[2:52] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She set down the drink.*  "It's a spa program that I picked up the last time we were in the Milky Way, Araniga Prime.  I've been there once before, and trust me, it is simply an incredible...

[2:52] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: experience... well suited for a woman of discerning tastes."

[2:52] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Maybe some nice, form-fitting silk lingerie... no, no,no Ankos, no such thoughts..." *Ankos ponders.*

[2:53] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] I find such spas to be ..augmentative to meditation and are quite agreeable

[2:53] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I'm sure you'd be able to find your centre quite easily under the skilled appendages of the Aranigans," *she smiled.*

[2:54] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *shrugs and hurries to the closest replicator to get her gift fixed and returns to the holodeck*

[2:55] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos goes to a replicator as well... in the end, he replicates for Solia a beautiful set of an actual paper journal, inkwell and feather, made more to be decorative, but still usable.*

[2:56] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She glanced at the others.*  "Though I'm sure everyone else is getting very tired... and might want to call it early..."

[2:56] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos leaves the gift box on the table.* "Okay, now everything is good."

[2:57] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he studied eren briefly as he took a quick sip of his drink*

[2:57] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: Sevuk? Konmal? Tracey? I think we must show sevuk here how to properly walk his dog.

[2:57] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Of course

[2:58] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] Agred Im in!

[2:58] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: This is unnecessary.

[2:58] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "It's very necessary, Commander Sevuk."

[2:58] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: You sure about that? I'm sure Mr.Boggles would love the company.

[2:58] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I plan on retiring to my quarters for meditation.

[2:58] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Sure...lets help Sevuk....-looks at Sevuk- ...wow dude...just..wow

[2:59] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Lieutenant, I am capable of walking a dog.

[2:59] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren drained the rest of her glass and motioned for another.*

[3:00] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "How about you go demonstrate your amazing dog-walking abilities to them to put the issue to rest, say on the holodeck?"

[3:00] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: Well, show us?

[3:00] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] Yes...I want to learn how to walk your dog

[3:00] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: This is illogical.

[3:00] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Welp Sevuk..we are not vulcans

[3:00] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren stared.*  "Just go do it..."

[3:00] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Hey, Skye? Since we're here, would you want a beautiful dress? We could probably get the computer to replicate you one. You will be like a princess!"

[3:01] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -facepalms-

[3:01] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -people begins chming at theholodeck to join the party-

[3:01] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: No, let him go meditate if he wants. I'm sure we can ask Gwen herself if she could show us how to walk him.

[3:01] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Shakes head a little* "I thinksies if everyone else is in keth uniform it is niciest to also be in keth uniform? maybe?"

[3:02] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well, you should all head on out and ask her for permission then, shouldn't you?"

[3:02] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Huh... I should get myself redressed then, as not to be rude."

[3:02] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I do not understand this obsession with the act of walking Mister Boggles. It involves only basic motor skills.

[3:02] [DOIC5] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -enters her qaurters and dresses up Boggles and bundles him up under her arm and heads off to the holodeck-

[3:03] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The door at the holodeck opens to let the people in while Ankos sneaks out to get his Keth uniform quickly.*

[3:03] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "But ma'am doctor said that councilors may dress socially in their councilorily dutily thingys!"

[3:03] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] -growls- I will kill you where yu stand if yu do nt show us how to walk your dog!

[3:03] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he walks behind Sevuk, grabbing his arm gently before pulling* Yes we know. Just come and tag along for a moment please?

[3:03] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Only when they've earned it, Skye!" *He says before he walks out.*

[3:03] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] -cringes-

[3:03] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "...Konmal, don't threaten the security chief hot on his promotion..."

[3:04] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Oh... Ohh..."

[3:04] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] -through clentched fangs- ...please show me how to walk your...dog? -tries to smile icely but it looks more like a feral snarl-

[3:05] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos shows back up, dressed in his uniform, rather quickly. Maybe he has lots of training sneaking out of bedrooms fast.*

[3:05] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk looks at Konmal.* Lieutenant, I will ignore this threat on my life for now.

[3:05] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] -gracefull moves in to assit Sine and escorting Sevuk out to teach them aoll abou dog walking-

[3:05] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he sets his jaw* Sevuk? outside please.

[3:05] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal]] -follows them- You are most kind commander

[3:05] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk turns to Sinez.* Commander, this is most unusual.

[3:06] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] -tugs on his arm with Sinez-

[3:06] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: A word outside please? *he tugged on him to follow, a tad bit rough*

[3:06] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Must be so easy to get uniformy on without wings?"

[3:06] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren grabbed her refilled glass.*  "Only on the Adagio..."

[3:06] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] =looks like he might explode-

[3:06] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos chuckles and gently pats Skye's head.* "It really is. I wouldn't really know, I guess. I have no wings?"

[3:06] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *once outside* You're really killing me. Come on, ignore us walking your dog, we're heading to the holodeck now.

[3:07] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] We could just make it look like he had an accdent

[3:07] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Is there a purpose for this visit?

[3:07] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] Think Seuk..think

[3:07] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Commander put hte little hamster back on his wheel inside your head

[3:08] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: Yes there is. Just come along, don't ask questions. Just follow.

[3:08] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *places her gift on the gift table*

[3:09] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk arches an eyebrow.* You are not going to explain the purpose?

[3:09] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -many others have done the same-

[3:09] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: There's something being planned in the holodeck, and we're heading over there to participate.

[3:10] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *smiles happily to all officers who has come to the party*

[3:10] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] What? were you not paying attention on the bridge?

[3:10] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: What is being planned?

[3:10] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Well organized, Skye... how did you manage to get so many people in on this so quick?"

[3:10] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] oooooh lord

[3:10] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he looks up at the ceiling, refraining from cursing*

[3:11] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I asked ma'am commander Tracey!"

[3:11] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She looked at Solia with a little grin as the others fled.*

[3:11] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Ma'am Doctor ahs done the baking! The KEth has soooooo many people who are super duper good at what they dosies, so the importantly thingy is the know who to ask and guide the biiiiig effort of many>

[3:11] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: > super talanted kethlings together!"

[3:11] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: A party sevuk. A party..Man are you slower than a pair of molasses

[3:12] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos smiles.* "That's true. You did great, Skye. Miss Solia would be so happy."

[3:12] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I see.

[3:12] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: So can we go and make our way over now?

[3:12] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: The whole thing about a suprise party is to make it a suprise, and here you are making things dificult.

[3:14] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I thinkeded you only said Miss if someone is lowerly rank thingy then you?"

[3:14] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I was not aware of it. An explanation earlier would have been helpful. What is its purpose?

[3:15] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Hmmmm... I don't know. Mister Sevuk doesn't mind me calling him Mister Sevuk."

[3:15] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] It is all we talked about on the bridge befoe you let the annaconda loos

[3:16] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Shrugs with her wings*

[3:16] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he facepalms* Yes..the party for the commander?

[3:16] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I have no idea"

[3:16] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos shrugs.* "Neither do I."

[3:16] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk tilts his head.* I see.

[3:16] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] She said it out loud....

[3:16] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: Selective hearing with this one.. *he lead the way to the holodeck*

[3:16] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Ah. This is the 'birthday party' tradition observed by other cultures.

[3:17] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] ...wow

[3:17] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Vulcans do not observe the passage of time in the same manner.

[3:18] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] Um...how does that apply here?

[3:18] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he contemplates bashing his head against the bulkhead at this point*

[3:18] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Commander Solia is a Vulcan to my knowledge.

[3:21] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he stops short of the holodeck* THat she is. Excellent obeservation commander.

[3:21] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] =shows up with Boggles dressed as a fairytale knight-

[3:22] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Awwww so cute!!!"

[3:22] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Hi Gw... Ohmydivines, that is the cutest thing ever!"

[3:22] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Commander Tracey inquired as to how it applied.

[3:22] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -sets down Sir Bogg;es- Isnt he???

[3:22] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos goes to scratch the base of the puppy's tail, knowing the effect it has.* "He isssss!"

[3:23] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Sir Boggls] -happily wags his tail coninced Ankos is the bestest best person in the entire universe=

[3:23] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] Yep and you failed to connect the dots

[3:24] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he furrowed his brow* Can we just.. walk in now? Please?

[3:24] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos happily continues to play with the puppy.* "I missed the little guy, hadn't seen him since the avynei planets..."

[3:24] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Does he still text Sevuk?"

[3:24] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -giggles- frequently

[3:24] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Yes! A song about a snake who likes eifeltowers!"

[3:24] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos chuckles.* "I wonder what they talk about..."

[3:25] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren cleared her throat.  They'd had plenty of time to get to the holodeck.  She smiled at Solia.*  "Well, shall we then, Commander?" *she asked, motioning to the doors with her glass.*

[3:25] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos furrows his brows.* "Wait... that... song, so to speak. That was Mr. Boggles? Supposedly..."

[3:25] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] Mostly its time for walies if you lisen to Sevuk

[3:25] [DOIC4] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk quirks a brow at Tracey, going to respond but stopping short as Sereya spoke.*

[3:25] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] wait...what?

[3:25] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: *Sinez walked into the holodeck without them*

[3:26] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I was talking to the captain and the XO in the captain's ready room... and there was a really bad human song... Oh, hi Sinez. Can you tell Gwen about the song?"

[3:26] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Yes inded..I look forward to your program

[3:26] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: It was a terrible music choice, that is all.

[3:26] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -smiles and hugs Sevuk then to Sinez- Music?

[3:26] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She offered Solia her arm.*

[3:27] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It was borderline traumatizing." *He then smiles, seeing Sevuk as well.* "Hey, mister Sev..." *He notices the pips.* "Did you get promoted?"

[3:27] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: *he shook his head* Ask him. He'll tell you all about it.

[3:27] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Yes!!! Congratulations on new rank titleness Sir commander Sevuk!"

[3:27] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -smiles proudly to him- Congradulations /sir/

[3:28] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos releases the cute little puppy to go to his owner.* "Congratulations, Commander Sevuk!"

[3:28] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Thank you. *He subtly returns the hug.* I was promoted to Lieutenant Commander.

[3:28] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Sir Boggles] barks and begins to chew on Daddy's boot tip-

[3:28] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk looks down at his boot, furrowing his brow.*

[3:28] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -kisses his cheek quicky- Congradulations Commander

[3:30] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk does not respond visibly.* Thank you.

[3:30] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -accepts hooking her arm with Erens to ffollow her to the holodeck-

[3:30] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren strolled slowly, giving them plenty of time to get ready...*

[3:30] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Only took four hundred years to get Commander Oblivious down here

[3:31] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Are they on gamma?"

[3:31] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] Um....out of curiosity....is anyon rakcing Eren and solia?

[3:31] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: tracking*

[3:31] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I am!"

[3:31] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Hey, Tracey, Konmal."

[3:31] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey[ Okay and hello Ankos

[3:32] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Counselor -nods to him-

[3:32] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I am grateful that you have not yet 'killed me where I stand', Lieutenant.

[3:32] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Sir...

[3:32] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos chuckles.* "Threatening a newly-promoted commander?"

[3:32] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -to Sevuk- Why did konmal wan to kill you? -looks to Sin- What did he do to Konmal?

[3:33] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "No killing of Keth!"

[3:33] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: "I will kill you where you stand if you do not show us how to walk your dog."

[3:33] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: He was being difficult, we basically had to drag his oblivious self away from the bar to prevent the suprise party from being blown.

[3:33] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] -to Skye- you wre not thereSkye...evne you wouldve wanted to kill him

[3:34] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Shakes her head* "Noo. I do not wish to kill anyone"

[3:34] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -cringes and looks to sevuk= You missed all the hints againt..ddnt yu?

[3:34] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: Gwen? Maybe it's time for hearing aides?

[3:34] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos gently pats Skye's head.* "She would never kill anyone."

[3:34] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Is there such a thing like Vulcan retirement homes?" *He looks to Sinez.*

[3:34] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: A Vulcan does not observe the passage of time in the same way that other cultures do, as I attempted to explain.

[3:34] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] then she wouldve knocked hm out and drug him here

[3:34] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *swallows and looks down some*

[3:35] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos gulps, realizing he's dun goof'd and gently leans down to hug Skye supportively, not saying anything.*

[3:35] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] Passage of time...what are you talking about..of course they do

[3:35] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren looked at Solia as they got closer to the holodeck.*  "Now I haven't tried this program yet, but my previous host went to the real place.  Keep an open mind and I'm sure you'll love it."

[3:35] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: *he shrugs* I have no idea, I just know he needs help.

[3:35] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: This 'birthday party' tradition.

[3:35] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] Skye?? are they close??

[3:35] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Nods meekly*

[3:35] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] Well..ofcourse they dont...but what has this to do with you missing hints?

[3:36] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I did not expect such an event for Commander Solia.

[3:36] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] Skye...we need you..you are in command of arty super duper fun time stuffs

[3:36] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: party*

[3:36] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: *he groaned* We were talking about it on duty for a solid hour sevuk...

[3:37] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] Oh Honey -she looks fitifully at Sevuk-

[3:37] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] He would drive a person to drink....vats of blood wine

[3:37] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Looks up at Tracey and nods*

[3:37] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: Not a bad idea at the moment Konmal.

[3:37] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I do not recall any mention of a party.

[3:37] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] No no we need super up Skye...

[3:38] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: *he then proceeded to find the bar with that*

[3:38] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Ada] Pointy ar alert...threat level red!!

[3:38] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: ear*

[3:38] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *There was no bar, however, there was a table in the garden laid out with  varous drinks.*

[3:38] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] nods- I will do my best to accomodate

[3:39] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The whole program was a big, disney-princess like castle, with a lot of silk, velvet and pretty stuff everywhere.*

[3:39] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Okey, everyone please listens. Light off please, when she enters we all say Surprise and happy birthday!"

[3:39] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The main table was laid out in the garden.*

[3:39] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: *he scrounged around for a decent drink, anything really*

[3:39] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "And then lighsties goes on and we all do party thingy!"

[3:39] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren tried to keep her face straight.*  "...I'm sure you're incredibly flexible in that department, Commander."

[3:39] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] -pats Ankos onthe head- nice one ace

[3:39] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos claps his hands and the light goes off.*

[3:39] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Quietly says something to Tracey.*

[3:40] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Ada] -dims the lights for Skye-

[3:40] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey whispers back-

[3:40] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos whispers something back.*

[3:40] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -the doors open suddenely=

[3:42] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos claps his hands again, hoping the lights go up, and shows up.* "Surprise! Happy birthday!"

[3:42] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Congratulations on the anniversary of your birth. *Sevuk says flatly.*

[3:42] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Surprisies! Happy Birthday!!!"

[3:42] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -jumps bakck waving her arms- False alarm

[3:42] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Hello ma'am captain!"

[3:43] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Oh... Hey, Captain."

[3:43] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: Hello Skye

[3:43] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: *he looked around at that*

[3:43] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: They on the lift behind me

[3:43] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "That is what we going to say when ma'am commander solia comes!" *Smiles*

[3:43] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: Perfect...she wont expect a thing

[3:44] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Well, at least it was a good practice round?"

[3:44] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey]] Right....so we all know now

[3:44] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Yes! And you did very very goodsie!"

[3:45] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods. He quickly goes to untie his hair, finally getting into more relaxed birthday party mode.* "That's cause we got a damn good coordinator."

[3:45] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He nods at Skye.8

[3:45] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] -tries to shush the baying little beagle knight- Noo no sssh boy sssh

[3:45] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren halted in the hallway, seeing the holodeck doors open, and went on distraction mode again as she stepped in front of Solia.*  "So... eighty-nine?  I swear, you don't look a day over sixty-six."

[3:45] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] It is 89 exactly

[3:45] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Mister Boggles, cease your barking at once.

[3:46] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: pAda closes the doors as Boggles obeys his daddy=

[3:46] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That's a... very harsh way to speak to the poor puppy."

[3:46] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Close the doorsies and be ready, they are suepr closie!"

[3:46] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: It is instructive, and as you can see, effective.

[3:46] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: Say it louder, he might hear you then..

[3:46] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well, I for one would love to have skin like that at eighty-nine... you have to tell me your regimen."

[3:46] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos prepares to shout again and claps his hands so the lights go down again.*

[3:46] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia[ -does not react tot he sound of the far off beagle brayng until it abruply stops-

[3:47] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] You will not laugh?

[3:47] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Of course not, Solia, why would I?"

[3:48] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] It is...-takes a deep breath- A bolian bath moisturizor...and Cookie Monster Johnson and Johnson;s baby shampoo

[3:48] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *There was a long pause.*

[3:48] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Cookie Monster..?"

[3:49] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Talia discovered it when we were room mates at the academy

[3:49] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] So...i kept replicating the shampoo

[3:49] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well..."  *she somehow managed to keep a straight face.*  "If it works... it works.  Shall we?"  *She motioned to the holodeck doors.*

[3:50] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Indeed -seemingly grateful Eren allowed her to keep her dignity-

[3:50] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren struggled HARD not to ask if she used Cake Villain conditioner as she opened the holodeck doors.*

[3:50] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: Ada ] be ready.....any se now

[3:51] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: Ada ] be ready.....any sec now

[3:51] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *flutters her wigns in excitement*

[3:52] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: the doors opned to reveal the pair at the doors..Erenand Solia perring inside-

[3:52] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos claps his hands and the lights go again... they're all standing in a beautiful garden full of flowers, a fairytale castle next to it, with a long table in the garden.*

[3:52] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Surprise! Happy birthday!"

[3:52] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren looked over at Solia, grinning.*  "Surprise!"

[3:52] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Surprisies!!! HAppy birthday!!!"

[3:53] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: Surprise!

[3:53] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Congratulations on the anniversary of your birth. *Sevuk says flatly.*

[3:53] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -eyebrows went straight up in mild shock-

[3:53] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson and Tracey in unison- HAPPY BRTHDAY!

[3:53] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: He meant to say Suprise! *he shot a look at Sevuk*

[3:54] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Ada] =plays [  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GwjfUFyY6M  ]

[3:54] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -everyone yells surpise and happy birthday and cheers-

[3:55] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -looks to Skye- I see your preparations for your project  exceeded my expectations

[3:55] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She clapped Solia on the back.*  "That's right!  Now let's get you some cake and another drink!"

[3:55] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I had muchies of help, ma'am commander" *Smiles happily*

[3:55] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Indeed

[3:56] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos smiles.* "She still coordinated the whole effort flawlessly."

[3:56] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: Solia] -enters with Eren her eyes sweeping over the fairy princess decor=

[3:56] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] She lead the effort magnificently

[3:57] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Beautiful decor, Skye," *she grinned at the fae woman.*

[3:57] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *In front of the chair heading the table, there was a beautiful crown, made to fit Solia.*

[3:57] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "It is Ankos who did it!"

[3:57] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -after looking around she looked to Ankos - I am to wear this crown?

[3:58] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -chuckles as she wathes her old friend-

[3:58] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "It's only logical, Commander."

[3:58] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Yes!"

[3:58] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Of course! It's your birthday!" *He smiles.* "But sit down, it's onlly fair for someone else to put it on you."

[3:58] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren made a beeline for the drink table upon delivering Solia.*

[3:58] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Indeed it is...then  i shall do so -removes her hair band and replaces it with her princess crown=

[3:58] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos smiles.* "Yes, perfect fit!"

[3:59] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] is alreayd there on his fourth-ish drink-

[3:59] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Indeed...again my thanks

[3:59] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She punched Konmal in the shoulder and grabbed herself a drink.*  "How difficult was it?"

[3:59] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Skye? -looks to her-

[3:59] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It was a pleasure, Miss Solia!" *He claps his hands again and some servants come out... going to everyone to ask what foods or drinks would they want.*

[3:59] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "How hard was whatsie?"

[3:59] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: I'd rather have pulled my nails off my fingers.

[4:00] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Except the antisocial ones at the drinking table, of course.*

[4:00] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Like pulling neutromium teeth..bhe blocked out all the talk abou the brithday because vulcans ...celebrate the passge of time dfferently or some such

[4:00] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Yes ma'am commander?" *looks up happily at Solia*

[4:00] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Please come over here

[4:00] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *walks over to Solia*

[4:00] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Eye level please

[4:00] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk arches an eyebrow at Sereya's inquiry and the responses.*

[4:01] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos slides towards the drink table, nodding at the others.* "I think Konmal and Sinez need a knighthood for dealing with it and not having minor nervous breakdowns."

[4:01] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Flies up and hovers to keep decently positional at eye level with Solia*

[4:01] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She chuckled and took a sip, looking at Sevuk.*  "Oh, never change.  Except your rank, I guess that's one thing that's allowed to change."

[4:01] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] leans forward some to allow her forehead to touch SKyes-

[4:01] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos tosses a bottle of beer in his hands, then opens it.* "Yeah, it's part of your charm, Mister Sevuk."

[4:02] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *gently fods her arms around Solia so she can easier hold position, smiling happily*

[4:02] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: It was not that difficult, they simply did not explain the situation properly.

[4:02] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -politely andoly politely rturns the hug-

[4:03] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I see, I see.  So they just made it difficult for themselves, ultimately?" *she smirked.*

[4:03] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] YES WE DID!

[4:04] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: Oh we tried to inconspicuously drag you away, you didn't follow along.

[4:04] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Dawson] Oh poor hon

[4:04] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She nearly snorted her drink out at Konmal's roar.*

[4:05] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] we um...just didnt take into account that he wouldve tuned out the party plans

[4:05] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos chuckles, then leans back on the table and smiles, looking at Solia and Skye.*

[4:05] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Your explanation was illogical.

[4:06] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Your head is illogical...

[4:06] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: Someone just deleted key information from their memory..

[4:06] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I have to agree with Konmal."

[4:06] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "You do think Mister Boggles texts you."

[4:06] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well, come on, now.  He just got promoted, let him have one night," *she smiled.*

[4:07] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos chuckles.* "Okay, hey, at least it's not apples."

[4:07] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I do not.

[4:07] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: *he stares at Ankos in trill*

[4:08] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos winks back in betazoid, then looks to the captain.*

[4:08] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren drinks in desperation.*

[4:09] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos smiles and raises his bottle to the captain in a toast, before looking at the others.* "Ah, it feels great making fun of myself before you guys can."

[4:10] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Only way you can beat it, kid."

[4:10] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Hey, I gave you a month of fun, that's enough."

[4:11] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Eh, it was more like a couple minutes.  Oh, wait, you mean the apple thing."

[4:12] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Apple?

[4:12] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "...What did you think I meant?"

[4:12] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "...Mister Sevuk, we were over this last time, even the Avynei got in on it."

[4:12] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She looked at Sevuk.*  "Don't tell me you haven't been listening to us berate him for his fear of apples."

[4:13] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "His -former- fear of apples."

[4:14] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Ah.

[4:15] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos shakes his head.* "This meditation's messing with his head."

[4:15] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "This lack of cake is messing with mine."  *She peered at Solia and Skye.*

[4:16] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Well... let me see what the birthday girl thinks." *Ankos heads towards the table.* "Miss, Solia? Do you want us to bring out the cake?"

[4:17] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "...Do we know what kind they got?"  *she murmured to the others as she filled up her cup.*

[4:17] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Yes please Counselor..I am hoping there is enough to go around

[4:17] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -she and talia share a knowing nod-

[4:18] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Ma'am Doctor has done baking!"

[4:18] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos claps his hands again and two servants wheel out the amazing cake, lovingly baked by Asiani.*

[4:18] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Ada] -keeps the music going-

[4:18] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Smiles and lets go of Solia after a little firmer hug*

[4:18] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -blins as she ses the cake-

[4:18] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -after hugging skye-

[4:19] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren stared.  This would be an acceptable substitute for pie.*

[4:20] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He gives a warm smile Solia's way, before looking at the cake over.* "I definitely should ask the Doctor to teach me how to do this too..."

[4:20] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He peers over at the birthday girl once more, after lighting the candles.* "Okay, Ada? You know which song's turn it is now."

[4:21] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Ma'am doctor also triedly to her bestiest abilities to make a nommie pastery that is from the Nymina Cluster... but with federationly ingrediences!"

[4:21] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Ada] Right! its not like they can sue me for cpyright infrigement

[4:21] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -plays happy birthdayto me

[4:21] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Copywhat now?" *she asked the others.*

[4:21] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *sings happy birthday*

[4:22] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos chuckles at Ada, then starts singing as well.*

[4:22] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She shrugged and sang along.*

[4:22] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -sings along loud and proud-

[4:22] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] booms out the song-

[4:23] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos sings, giving Sevuk and Sinez a cautionary glare.*

[4:24] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -Dawson and tracey sing along happily as do the other guests=

[4:24] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] endures-

[4:24] [DOIC6] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk observes this practice.*

[4:25] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The song ends, and Ankos smiles.* "Blow out the candles, miss Solia!"

[4:25] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Finishes singing* "Three timsies yay for Ma'am commander Solia!"

[4:25] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Swear and oath and spit!

[4:26] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "DO NOT SPIT ON THE CAKE, KONMAL."

[4:26] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -cringes - Lieutenant...

[4:26] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] -pauses- I believe I must make a wish first...is that not true?

[4:27] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "If you so wish, Commander!"

[4:27] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Looks at Eren and Ankos who are the human culture specialists*

[4:27] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Uh... yeah, that's a thing.  Make a wish and blow out the candles."

[4:28] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] I pass on my wish then -looks around- for it has aleady come to fruition -blows out her candles gracefully and delticatrly-

[4:28] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Yaaay! Yaaay!! Yaaaay!!!"

[4:28] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: -cheers all about-

[4:28] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] Do cut the cake

[4:28] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos does the three yaaays as well, smiling gently at Solia's wish.*

[4:28] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren grinned and drained her glass.*

[4:29] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos waves the servants away, deciding to go about cutting it himself., obviously giving Solia the best-looking piece.*

[4:29] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Use a blood caked Dk;Tagh!

[4:29] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Um..." *Looks to Talia for orders on whether or not to do as Konmal said.*

[4:29] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Let's not get ANY bodily fluids on the cake, Konmal, how about that?"

[4:29] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: Use a clean knife

[4:30] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods, using the knife he had already used to cut Solia's piece. He starts cutting pieces for evetyone.* "Anyone has any special requirements for their piece, send them my way."

[4:30] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Give me one with a frosting rose."  *She nodded.*  "Please."

[4:31] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] See she gets a rose please ankos

[4:31] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos does so, giving Eren one with a rose. He then cuts a piece for Skye, making sure there's a rose on it as well.*

[4:31] [DOIC6] Talia@Isis.: [Solia] and one for SKye

[4:31] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Way ahead of you, Miss Solia."

[4:31] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She winked at Solia.*  "I do have that program I told you about, by the way, so let me know if you ever want to give it a try."

[4:31] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *happily accepts her plate*

[4:33] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos continues until everyone has cake. He then cuts himself a piece too.* "So, Eren, how does someone with an experience as rich as yours find this birthday party?"

[4:35] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I tend not to remember most of the birthday parties I attend, truth be told," *she shrugged as she took a bite of her cake.*

[4:35] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *nommies her cake* "Sooooooo lovely!"

[4:36] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos chuckles, eating his cake as well.* "Well, I offered to jump out of a cake, wrapped in the federation flag, but Skye didn't seem to agree with the idea... So this party is more tame."

[4:37] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She gave him a bemused look.*  "I believe Skye may have made the right call, in that case.  I imagine Konmal would have beaten you to death the instant you popped out."

[4:37] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Well it's not -his- birthday! It was for Miss Solia..."

[4:37] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I thinksies it would be super badsie to spill this super lovely cake? And then eveyrone would have to lick cake off you?"

[4:37] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I can't imagine she would have stopped him..."

[4:37] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That doesn't... sound like so bad an idea, Skye..."

[4:38] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She looked at Skye, then up at Ankos.*  "Counselor... no..."

[4:38] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "But I was thinking of having a fake cake for me to jump out of, and this cake to stay untouched."

[4:38] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Maybe on your birthday?" *smiles*

[4:38] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "We're not licking him for his birthday..."

[4:39] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She shook her head.*  "Out of the question."

[4:39] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "No no no! But cake jumping? Maybe a holocake so it is not so sticky?"

[4:39] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos grins.* "Besides, it's not how it works. Somebody attractive jumps out of the cake as a present to the one who has a birthday."

[4:39] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I never hearded of this?"

[4:39] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It's a human thing... but we adopted in on betazed too. Needless to say, we liked the idea."

[4:39] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "We are the Keth, we can make our own super nice Keth traditions!"

[4:40] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I've only seen it at bachelor parties..."

[4:40] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I never been to a bachelor party?"

[4:40] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "You've not gone to the right birthdays, then..." *He then looks at Skye.* "True, Keth traditions are very nice."

[4:40] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "A bachelor party is a party a man makes before getting married. And only other men go there."

[4:40] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Way things go around here, Skye, I doubt you will any time soon."

[4:41] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Oh... Gender based cultures is a little strange" *nods*

[4:41] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Try living in one from both perspectives," *she smirked at Skye.*

[4:41] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Girls have bachelorette parties. It's more or less the same."

[4:41] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He then chuckles at Eren.* "That sounds fun, to be fair>"

[4:42] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Can we have a bachelorette party? Eren?" *Looks up curiously at Sereya*

[4:42] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos smiles at that.* "If eren agrees to get married."

[4:42] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She looked at Skye.*  "Someone would have to be getting married, Skye, and I'm not planning on doing that this lifetime."

[4:42] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "But it is vallen times day soon!"

[4:42] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Maybe if Mr. Sevuk ever proposes to Gwen, you  will get to have one."

[4:43] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I'm still not going to get married!"  *she laughed.*

[4:43] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Why not?"

[4:43] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos slaps his forehead.* "Oh, my... Skye, you're right, and I still haven't made up a gift... damn it."

[4:43] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I don't even know anyone that I'd even consider doing that with, Skye."

[4:44] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "But if you marry someone, you are not married to that someonly when you are next you?"

[4:45] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She shook her head.*  "Maker, no.  Otherwise I'd still be hitched to Zacir's wife."

[4:45] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Was she nice?"

[4:45] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren cringed.*  "We... -they,- rather, didn't exactly get along."

[4:46] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Oh. that is sadsie!"

[4:46] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *munches more cake, it being to delisious to resist*

[4:46] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Yeah, but, it's over now and she's off living her own life still."  *She grabbed a new drink.*

[4:46] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, it's not fair. I'll never secure a promotion, the doctor is setting too high a standard..."

[4:46] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Good medic, and a great baker... so not fair..."

[4:47] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Why is promotions so important?"

[4:47] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Because they have an important effect on self, confidence, plus you get some extra nice thingies."

[4:47] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "For example, when I get promoted, I can have my own room like Eren does."

[4:48] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren nodded.*  "Had to share mine until I made JG."

[4:48] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Oooo, I used to have super nice roomiieee untill I had more titles... I miss it"

[4:48] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Yeah, mine was great, too.  But I do like having the space and the privacy."

[4:49] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Chrissstina is getting bigger. She needs more space... and Anderson won't get off my back for taking up too much space on the couch."

[4:50] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: ((For me*))

[4:50] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well, it's her couch too.  Gotta deal until you have your own place."  *She smirked.*

[4:50] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I have Zeiiva to talk to and super lovely pushies and Dachaei!"

[4:51] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Smiles at Skye.* "Your room is super nice. Especially the plushie corner."

[4:51] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "And I can have guests whenever I want!"  *She took a drink.*

[4:51] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "And Eren... see, that's one more boon of dating Ynera. If we ever move in together, she'll sleep in something like a special water bed, I guess, and I'll get a bed of my own."

[4:52] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Dachaei is a little litly tiny bitsie hard to euhmm.... euhmmm"

[4:52] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Hard to?"

[4:52] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos tilts his head.*

[4:52] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *looks up at eren for help*

[4:52] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She looked down at Skye curiously.*

[4:52] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "You can give me the general idea telepathically, Skye."

[4:52] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Dream merge? I do not know how to translate this at all"

[4:53] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Oh. Basically, to join your dreams with hers?"

[4:53] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Oh... she's hard to form your kind's connection with while you're sleeping?"

[4:54] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Yes! So I only half sleepsies and so. but iti s nice to feelsie she is there, even if she is euhmm... not as much developed and can not do the big telepathy thingys?"

[4:54] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "But she is so nice!"

[4:54] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "She was absolutely adorable."

[4:55] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Chrisstina has been getting a bit of a temper... actually, for a while now. Ever since Christmas."

[4:55] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren eyeballed Ankos.*  "She's a snake, what could be making her angry?"

[4:56] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I don't even know. She's been wanting more and more affection, and if she doesn't get it, she bites my finger..."

[4:56] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Owie?"

[4:56] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "You're a betazoid, can't you make her feel your pain when she bites you or something?"

[4:56] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Started on Christmas eve... Oooooooh. I think she's angry cause someone didn't give her affection."

[4:57] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Counselor... I don't think snakes hold grudges that long... or at all.  They're snakes."

[4:57] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I want to try and do this with as little telepathy as possible."

[4:57] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos looks offended at that.* "So?"

[4:57] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That's like saying Mister Boggles can't feel pain cause he's a doggy!"

[4:57] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "They literally have lizard brains.  And I'm not saying they can't feel pain, that's ridiculous."

[4:57] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "No.... that is not same thingy thing"

[4:58] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *reptile brains ))

[4:58] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Pain is feeling, emotion. Grudgynesses is memory"

[4:59] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Perhaps. Or maybe, they're smarter than you think..."

[4:59] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I think they are smart!"

[5:02] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren gave a little sigh, draining her glass.*  "Well.  That's my limit.  I'm going to bed."

[5:02] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Good night, Eren."

[5:02] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Holds up her arms towards Eren*

[5:02] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos sits, his back leant on the table, looking at the happy scene and Solia with her crown with a smile on his face.*

[5:03] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren set her empty plate and glass down to lean forward and give Skye a gentle hug.*  "Good night, Skye.  It was a lovely party, thank you."

[5:04] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Affectionately hugs Eren*

[5:04] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos looks at the two.* "Skye should be made the ship's party planner."

[5:04] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Only if she wants to," *Eren shrugged as she straightened up.*  "Good night, Counselor."

[5:05] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "of coruse." *He chuckles.* "Good night, Eren."

[5:05] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *And with that, she turned and strode back to her room.*

[5:05] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He then looks at the little fairy.* "Do yourr people celebrate birthdays, actually?"

[5:05] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *waves to Eren as long as she sees her*

[5:06] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "In a waysie? yes?. But one 'year' is longer for us"

[5:07] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Oh? How much does it take on your homeworld? Or is it not astronomical and just cultrual?"

[5:08] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "I meaneded that one circulation of our cultural homeworld of our sun takes longer then for Earth to go around Sol"

[5:08] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Ah, so it's astronomical." *Ankos looks genuinely interested in the Nymina's people.* "So, how long is it?"

[5:09] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "A little bitsie over fifteensie Earth months"

[5:10] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Ah. So not that long." *He smiles, then gives out a tired yawn.* "I think I'll be off too. I had a lot of work before I went to set up the party." *He goes to hug Skye gently.* "And sorry for earlier

[5:10] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: *Holds up her arms and accepts the hug*

[5:10] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "It is okises"

[5:11] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Thanks for the party, it was great. And it made Miss Solia really happy. Good night, Skye."

[5:11] [DOIC6] Skye@Illuice: "Sleepsies nice Ankos!

[5:12] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "You too, Skye."
