Pilgrim 12/17

[9:00] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: ** The usual intro does not play tonight.  Instead, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gm3puQtwXcg plays as the episode opens on a cozy little cottage in the woods, the roof dusted with snow and...

[9:01] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: smoke rising from the chimney.  It transitions inside, where Silver can be seen sitting in a chair by a crackling fire with an oversized book laid out on his lap.

[9:02] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Ah, yes, the holidays... whether you're celebrating Christmas, of Hanukkah, or the Feast of the Great and Holy Protector, there's nothing like this time of season to bring people together."

[9:03] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "But not everyone finds such joy this time of year... there are some people who some of us might call... Scrooges."

[9:03] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The camera pans out to show Rhys glaring at Silver across the room in another chair.*

[9:03] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "...That's your line, Kalen."

[9:04] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "I'm not saying it."

[9:04] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Dude, I go out of my way to do all this for you, and you can't even play along?"

[9:04] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "I'm not saying it!  I didn't ask you to do any of this!"

[9:04] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He cleared his throat and said in Rhys' voice,* "Bah, humbug."

[9:04] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "I hate you."

[9:05] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "But not all was gloomy, for old crabby Kalen was about to have visitors in this wonderful time!"

[9:05] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "Don't drag anyone else into this farce..."

[9:06] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Farce?  No, my dear Kalen, this is no farce.  This is..."  *He stood up, snapping the tome closed.*

[9:07] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: ** 'A Very Pilgrim Christmas' shows over the screen as the live studio audience begins to applaud.*

[9:07] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "Who the hell is clapping?"

[9:07] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "No swearing, Kalen, or you'll get coal.  Now listen, I think the first cars are pulling up now!"

[9:07] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "...Cars?  What year is this supposed to be?"

[9:08] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Unimportant, my dear boy..."  *There was a knock at the door.*  "Your guests are here!"

[9:09] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  *Grumbling angrily, he stormed over to the door to throw it open.*  "What?!"

[9:09] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Happy holidays!" *A very festive T'Ghor, in a fluffy wintery coat and a christmas sweater, grinned to Rhys, blowing some cigarette smoke out in his face*

[9:10] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "Oh, god fucking damn it..."

[9:10] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Don't be a grinch, ass."

[9:10] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Merry Christmas.

[9:10] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "Whatever, get inside so we can get this over with."

[9:11] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *T'Ghor walked in at that very polite invitation.*

[9:11] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  *He gave Li a look.*

[9:11] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Psssh.. It's happy holidays, don't be culturally insensitive."

[9:12] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --the front door opens. and a very confused T'Pang peeks into the little cabin.--

[9:13] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li rolls his eyes.* Bajorans don't even celebrate any of these holidays.

[9:13] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Hey, Captain..." *He took notice of her outfit* "Seriously?"

[9:13] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The studio audience began clapping as T'Pang appeared.*

[9:13] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --her head tilts at the studio audence., she looks at T'Ghor-- "who are these people?" --she says motioning to the audience.--

[9:14] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Mouthed "Just play along" to her*

[9:14] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  *He rolled his eyes and started hunting for booze in the little cabin.  They could see there was a big tree decked out with ornaments in the corner by the fire.*

[9:14] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she notices Silver sitting in teh comfy chair by the fire.-- "I should have known."

[9:15] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Oops, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!"  *He popped out of existence.*

[9:15] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Cleared his throat.* "We all are here for a wonderful Christmas Eve... -Right-. Captain?"

[9:15] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she talks to the thin air-- "I wasn't demanding you leave."

[9:16] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The studio audience laughed.*

[9:16] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "...yes Christmas...merry Christmas.."

[9:16] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -stumples i through the front door shaing snow out of her pinned back dreads-..What the

[9:16] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --turns to Valkriss-- "Welcome to the party Valkriss."

[9:17] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Happy holidays, Valkriss!"

[9:17] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The studio audience began to cheer again as Valkriss arrived.*

[9:17] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -lokks up and and around the room- Where...what...Captaiin> 0blinls at the audience- What is going on?

[9:17] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Apparently this is Silver's idea of a fun Christmas party."

[9:17] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "Silver's bored again."

[9:17] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -looks at her outfit- Um..why do i look like Mrs Claus?

[9:18] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -looks at Rhys- You're kidding me

[9:18] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Well, so much for rolling with the punches and enjoyng this..."

[9:18] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "I wish I was..."

[9:18] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --looks over Vlakriss' outfit.-- "You look nice.. at least we are not all dressed alike." --she looks T'Ghor with tht.--

[9:18] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles- A little warning might have been helpful yes?

[9:19] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -looks at T'Ghor and then to Tpnag- Did you two ...plan that?

[9:19] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "No... She stole my look."

[9:19] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "This outfit was not my idea."

[9:19] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --nods to the two new arrivals.-- "Welcome to the Pilgrim holiday party."

[9:20] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles- And the studio audience? -to T'Ghor-

[9:20] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Sticking her head in and looking around...* "Oh, next thing you know there will be chestnuts on the fire, and a cardassian sitting in a high backed chair introducing us."

[9:20] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "All Silver, Valkriss."

[9:20] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he looks around* I am not sure I understand.

[9:20] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she just gives Valkriss a shrug-- "Apparently Silver thought that would be amusing."

[9:20] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "You already missed Silver's introduction, doctor."

[9:20] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -looks about and chuckles- Well he had the wisdom to leave Illya back on the ship

[9:20] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cristol]  *She stormed into the cabin.*  "Okay, where's that ginger bastard?"

[9:21] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Silver... that explains my Falcon outside."

[9:21] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Annd now cris is here -nods-

[9:21] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --Cristols expletive is bleepsed out.--

[9:21] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *A gorgeous Trill sharing soem smiliarities with Vaylith skips in, dressed in a sexy Santas helper outfit (And totally having spots!). Speaking in a warm, friendly voice: "Happy Holidays!"

[9:21] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --for television.--

[9:22] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Vaylith?!"

[9:22] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Oh No...

[9:22] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The audience goes wild and whistles approvingly of the beautiful Vaylith.*

[9:22] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *shrugs her shoulders and looks at Cristol* 'Looks like Silver's Bells are in jeapardy.'

[9:22] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *raises an eyebrow*

[9:22] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --blinks at Vaylith.-- "Vaylith, is that you?"

[9:22] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Well at least you have your helper, Mrs. Claus..." *To Valkriss*

[9:22] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -rubs the bridge of her nose-

[9:23] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "That is me, Indeed!" *Playfully twirls around in a graceful spin on her toes.*

[9:23] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "You look wonderful.."

[9:23] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "That you do."

[9:23] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: She does indeed

[9:23] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Nice outfit... "

[9:23] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *laughs*

[9:23] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *shake shis head and looks for something too drink*

[9:24] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --nods to Gayle as well-- "Welcome to the party. both of you."

[9:24] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Gayle was not present.*

[9:24] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Veracys! Lovely to see you again." *Smiles to Gayle.*

[9:25] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --then whoever Lio is supposed to be :P--

[9:25] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Ignore gayle if no gayle is there.*

[9:25] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: [Cris I think]

[9:25] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dahlia walks around the cabin, looking closely at everything but the audience, touching things, picking them up as if to see if they are real.*

[9:25] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *With a lovely tinkling of bells, the table was suddenly laden with food and drink.  It looked like a classic late 20th century set.*

[9:25] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Well, that's nice."

[9:25] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he shrugs*

[9:26] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --walks over to Valkriss-- "I suppose there is no reason people should no just enjoy themselves."

[9:26] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cristol]  "I just want to find that cosmic ginger and kick his ass..."  *She stormed around looking for him.*

[9:26] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: I do not see any reason why not Captain..I do not think Silver means any true harm

[9:26] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Plus Rhys is grouchy but not enraged

[9:27] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Soooo... Where are we? And not to be rude but could we do introductions, You clearly have me at a disadvantage here?" *Giggles softly.*

[9:27] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: So i see little danger

[9:27] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "I agree it seems safe enough."

[9:27] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "He means my sanity harm..."  *He sat down in his chair with a glass of whiskey.*

[9:27] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Commadner Vaylith, I am Marcus, this is Dahlia.

[9:27] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -nods to Rhys and then T'Pang- See?

[9:27] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Right, I'm T'Ghor, and it seems a... certain friend of ours has dragged us here for some Christmas... fun,  guess."

[9:27] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he gestures to anne.*

[9:27] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "I have only two questions, pressing at the moment, where the frack are we, and is that really my car?"

[9:27] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: I am Valkriss

[9:27] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Or would you prefer Zalithya?

[9:27] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -nod sto T'Ghor- What he said

[9:28] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Nice outfit."

[9:28] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Delight to meet you both, Marcus, Dahlia." *Curtseys elegnatly in the sexy helpers outfit.* "Valkriss, Beautifull name that."

[9:28] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The ancient television came to life once Rhys sat down, showing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0SIujwdc34 *

[9:28] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "I am not sure where we are doctor, perhaps some pocket universe. And, the care is yours while you here I imagine."

[9:28] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Zalithya is fine, this is hardly a formal setting."

[9:29] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "what does a captain have to do to get a mug of hot choclate around her?"

[9:29] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *glancing back at the now live set* "Now I know it's Christmas... you'll shoot your eye out kid.. " *she starts giggling.*

[9:29] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *A mug of hot chocolate appeared in T'Pang's hand, with marshmallows.*

[9:29] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Fra-gilee.....if its foreign it must be a special award -smirks amused-

[9:30] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he smiles* I need wine.

[9:30] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -winks at Rhys-

[9:30] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "...What does a klingon have to do to get a supermodel girlfriend?" *Says when he sees T'Pang's wish come true.*

[9:30] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --blinks in confusion.-- "Well that was easy..."

[9:30] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  *He grumbled and sipped his whiskey.*

[9:30] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "This movie always made me want a red rider BB gun of my own."

[9:31] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li looks very displeased, occassionally looking around.*

[9:31] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -looks to see if TGhior gets his wish-

[9:31] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --watches T'Ghor to see if his wish is granted."

[9:31] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *A Nausicaan woman was suddenly on T'Ghor's arm.*

[9:31] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Nice." *Hooks his arm under hers.*

[9:32] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -rolls her eyes-

[9:32] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nausicaan]  "So nice for you to bring me to meet the extended family, sweetie," *She kissed him on the cheek.  It was very... toothy.*

[9:32] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Where is my family?

[9:32] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Don't be jealous, Valkriss." *He blinked a bit at the toothy kiss.* "I promised you, didn't I?"

[9:32] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Aria]  *She suddenly appeared next to Li.*  "...Wha..?"

[9:32] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --raises and eyebrow.-- "This night could get interesting..." --she says sipping her cocoa.--

[9:33] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: I am not jealous...a Nausican is tame compared to Illya -smirks-

[9:33] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he eyes the orion newcomer a moment*

[9:33] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The studio audience 'oooohed' and laughed.*

[9:33] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, fuck me! Aria! It's been ages!"

[9:33] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Smiles with a mischivious smile as she watches Aria.*

[9:33] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *Istrin went looking for the eggnog while the awkward reunion happened*

[9:33] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dahlia smirks* "Don't be greedy T'Ghor, you already have one."

[9:33] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li puts his hands on his hips.* That's not a funny joke.

[9:33] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Li!

[9:34] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "It's -hilarious-!"

[9:34] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -glowers at him-

[9:34] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Aria]  "What's going on... why am I in a..."  *She poofed away.*

[9:34] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Greetings Aria, it has been some time."

[9:34] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Honest mistake!  It's hard to keep up with the women you get with..."

[9:34] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And she's gone.

[9:34] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: And there is a subspace message i now i have to deal with -dryly as Aria poofs away-

[9:35] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he thought hard about a spiced wine*

[9:35] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Spiced wine appears.*

[9:35] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --nods to Valkriss-- "that will be awkward."

[9:35] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Where is my family?

[9:35] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "It was totally worth it for Li's face."

[9:35] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: When it involves my friend and Li it so /often/ is

[9:35] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Well that is useful. *he thought about some glasses* Zalythia wine?

[9:35] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --nods slowly--

[9:35] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -snarls some-

[9:36] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he moved to pour it into something*

[9:36] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Please. White a sweet white would be wonderful."

[9:36] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Anne?

[9:36] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dahlia walks over near the fire, picking up a nick nack, and getting a sad look on her face.*

[9:36] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Suddenly, a baby hujoran in a Santa onesie was in Li's arms.*

[9:36] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Bleurgh... you got bloodwine in here?"

[9:36] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *his wine bottle poured the drinks*

[9:36] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Thank you.

[9:36] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --sips her cocoa.-- "mhmm! this is really good."

[9:36] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The studio audience 'awwwwwwwwed.'*

[9:36] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he brought a glass to Zalithya*

[9:37] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Thank you, Marcus."

[9:37] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Played along for the audience, pulling his fake girlfriend to the table.* "Ours will be cuter."

[9:37] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Most welcome.

[9:37] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: So....just the baby...Jil is no longer family? -eyes Li-

[9:37] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he looked over to where anne wondere doff to*

[9:37] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Chuckles at Valkriss' comment.*

[9:37] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nausicaan]  "Oh yes, my love... and I brought you something, too."  *She retrieved a flask from between her cleavage.*

[9:37] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Of course not, I would like his mother as well.

[9:37] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Excuse me. My wife seems to have... found a corner.

[9:37] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Forgotten the Irushey Incident already, Valkri-...I love you." *He said to the nausican*

[9:37] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Must we really start the ribbing so soon ma'am? *he looked at Valk*

[9:38] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "I can't put my arms down..."

[9:38] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he walked over*

[9:38] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Li understands my issue Mr Ishtrin

[9:38] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jill]  *She popped into existence in a lovely red turtleneck sweater.*  "...Uh..."

[9:38] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Wht is wrong Anne?

[9:38] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks- There we go

[9:38] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Just felt kind of rude.. was all.. *he turned around searching for eggnog*

[9:38] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Takes the booobflask and smells its contents.*

[9:38] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  "Mama!"  *He reached for Jill as she appeared.*

[9:39] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Not rude, Istrin..."

[9:39] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Rude... very smart thing to call your XO....

[9:39] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Nothing... I wonder if I could get T'Ghor to put his tongue to teh flag pole outside... " *she forces a smile*

[9:39] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -nods-

[9:39] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --smirks at Istrin.-- "nice sweater Ensign."

[9:39] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he handed her a glass*

[9:39] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Oooh, this is the good stuff." *He took a swig from the flask, and then offered it to Valkriss.* "Have a gulp instead and calm down."

[9:40] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  *He was flipping through channels on the ancient television.  A Christmas Story was on every single channel.*

[9:40] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: I can be wrong! *he quickly looked at T'pang* Oh thank you, it just appeared on me.

[9:40] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: It is Mister Ishtrin....a very nice sweater -gratefully takes a swig and hands it back to hm- They offer men's clothing where you got it as well?

[9:40] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks at Ish some-

[9:40] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: What's wrong with pink?

[9:40] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Nothing I like it myself

[9:40] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods to Istrin-- "Yes. I think the outfits reflect Silver's taste more than our own."

[9:41] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *T'Ghor offers the flask to the nausicaan's... mouth-void thing.* "We can't forget you, can we?"

[9:41] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Taking the glass, she drinks, probably more than she should have.*

[9:41] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cristol]  "It's the colour of..."  *Her next word was bleeped out by network sensors.*

[9:41] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -laughs at Cristol's comment-

[9:41] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "No, that's an outfit I've been wearing the past two Christmases."

[9:41] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -wave to Eldax-

[9:41] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *he shrugged* Sorry?

[9:42] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: So what exactly do I do on this holiday.

[9:42] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li hands Adrian to his mother.*

[9:42] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Welcome to the party Eldax."

[9:48] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *sighs, a slight frown on her face.* "Is she alright?"

[9:48] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Of course the rival network got her..."

[9:48] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: a vicous time of year

[9:48] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --raises an eyebrow-- "Are these cosmic being competing with one another for the pleasure of messing with us mortals?"

[9:49] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Indeed... only humans and klingons can cause such a rivalry on the days of goodwill."

[9:49] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Exactly

[9:49] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Shrugs to T'P* "I don't feel particularly messed with."

[9:49] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The television suddenly flicked to a new channel, where they could see Captain Arfacio opening gifts surrounded by baby Scyrthi.*

[9:49] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Stashes the booze flask in the nausicaan's cleavage again, carefully.*

[9:49] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Actually this is my favorite holiday truth be told

[9:49] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Perhaps not."

[9:49] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Awwww, Valkriss, Vaylith, look!"

[9:50] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "I'm lost... she has scrythi children?"

[9:51] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *a soft aww escaped from him*

[9:51] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Loud facepalm*

[9:51] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "she does now doctor thanks largely to your and T'Ghor's efforts."

[9:51] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: wait does that mean we are opening gifts for eachother here sometime soon?

[9:51] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Captain, I don't think that those are -her- children."

[9:52] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "...Unless some miracle of medical science has happened these past few months."

[9:52] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Arfacio]  *She takes out a tiny little holiday sweater and helps one of the babies get it on.  It chirps happily and runs around in circles.*

[9:52] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Blinks* "What... Carirha has children? And she has not even told me!?"

[9:52] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Covers his mouth to stiffle an "Aww."*

[9:52] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "I am aware of that Mister T'Ghor."

[9:52] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dahlia wishes for a 5 finger glass of Glennturret 2260*

[9:52] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *he turned and looked at Notvay*

[9:52] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "No, Vayltih, those are not hers... let's just say, she's a large part of why they are alive."

[9:52] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: (Of the reason*)

[9:53] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "When? How?"

[9:53] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she looks at the Christmas tree with gifts under it.-- "Ensign you should go see if any of the gifts have your name on them."

[9:53] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Takes the booze flask from the cleavage again and pours a little bit for Vay, then mixing it up with water.* "Bloodwine, heavily watered down." *He offered it to her.*

[9:54] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Oh no ma'am. I'll wait if those are for us.

[9:54] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *drinking, She sits down* "Well, i'm happy for her then... I didn't realize she stayed close with the project.*

[9:54] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Holds up the glass of wite wine.* "I have some, but thank you." *Keeps looking slightly confused at the screen with arfie.*

[9:55] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cristol]  *She headed over to Rhys, offering him a cigarette from her pack.  He noddded in thanks and took it, lighting up from a candle on the table.*

[9:55] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "suit yourself. I have not examined the gifts to see if they are indeed for us or not."

[9:56] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Looks to T'Pang, mouthing*

[9:56] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jill]  *She eyed the smokers and took Adrian over to sit by the fire.*

[9:56] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Well.. did we end up on the naughty list of christmas?

[9:57] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li takes a seat next to the fire.*

[9:57] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --cants her head toward T'Ghor-- "Not that I am aware of.."

[9:58] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Right, so, Vaylith... I believe our friend Silver has made a mistake with the space/time, you know how godlike beings are... we are the crew of an alternate vaylith... Or you are an alternate >

[9:58] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he sips his wine and rubs anne's shoulder*

[9:58] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Vaylith? And we and Caritha managed to save a species from extinction, you see their healthy babies with her at the moment."

[9:59] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dahlia, without realizing she is doing it, wishes a gift to the hands of Rhys...*

[9:59] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *looks for the door to leave *

[9:59] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "It is hard to say for sure what is going on..."

[9:59] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Who is silver? And should we not... you know... try to perhaps get out of this quaint place if it is an alternate universe?"

[9:59] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *Voiceover.*  "But the dashing, handsome, incredibly more awesome than Q Silver had made no mistake..."

[10:00] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *There was indeed a front door to the cabin.*

[10:00] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *walks over and opens it *

[10:00] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --looks up at the thin air-- "You know Silver it would be less creepy if you just joined us rather than observing from the aether."

[10:00] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Imagine him as a... Q-like being of sorts?"

[10:01] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *An intense, cold wind was blowing, snow flying inside and making the room cold once Eldax opened the door.*

[10:01] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "The charming Q or that arrogant Q?"

[10:01] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "And I think this is a pocket dimension, with time frozen and all that. He brought us here for some Christmas cheer, and all, so just enjoy it?"

[10:01] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Arrogantly charming, and charmingly arrogant... Silver's a bit of both."

[10:01] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  *He looked down at an ashtray in his hand, frowning and tossing it aside.*  "Fuck off Silver."

[10:01] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --higs herself trying to pretect herself from the cold wind-- "Close the door!"

[10:01] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The network censored Rhys as well.*

[10:02] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *slips out the front door and close it behind him

[10:02] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *shivers at teh cold*

[10:02] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The cold wind pushed Eldax back inside.*

[10:02] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *istrin chuckled to himself before shivering* Brrr..

[10:02] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Rolls his eyes at Eldax and gives VayVay his fluffy vest.* "Here. Will be a bit oversized."

[10:03] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Oh it is okey, I am not sure I got your name however?"

[10:03] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nausicaan]  "Brrrr, it's getting all nippley in here..."  *She pushed her chest against T'Ghor's arm.*

[10:03] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "T'Ghor."

[10:03] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "T'Ghor? No... son of Gradure and acompelisher of grand and golorious deeds?" *Smiles*

[10:03] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Jame's T'Ghor" *she says with movie like tone*

[10:04] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Stoically threw an arm around the nausicaan, playfully tapping her behind.* "You really are something."

[10:04] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Chuckles*

[10:04] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "And no, I don't go by any of that. Just T'Ghor. Sometimes Santa."

[10:04] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Pleasure to meet you then, T'Ghor."

[10:04] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: You're not fat though T'ghor?

[10:05] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he sits down*

[10:05] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The wind fought Eldax in turn.*

[10:05] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "I think i'm going to be sick... " *she drinks more*

[10:05] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Owww! Sorry!"

[10:06] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Then why continue to drink?

[10:06] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *slams the door  shut and curses *

[10:06] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  *He started to cry as the cold wind howled through the cabin.*

[10:06] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Mister Eldax, I believe your attempts to leave that way are futile."

[10:06] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The door shut and warmth started to spread through the room again.*

[10:07] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li helps to cover up Adrian.*

[10:07] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *He chuckled, giving the Nausicaan a forehead kiss for the earleir compliment, then looks to Vaylith.* "You're strong for a trill."

[10:07] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: This is not a Time of Happy Celibation for my people ,,  Siver get a history lesson before you force others into something they dont want,

[10:07] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  "Mlem."  *He seemed to be recovering.*

[10:07] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --once again looks toward the thin air-- "Silver, are prisoners here?"

[10:07] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "All in the technique, T'ghor."

[10:10] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "No one's a prisoner here!"

[10:10] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, another difference in where we come from, our guess."

[10:10] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -looks up at the voice over and then back at the tree, charmed at the nostalgia it remands her off-

[10:10] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: (I guess*)

[10:10] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *There were many packages neatly stacked under the tree.*

[10:10] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "A universe where Xylvarenn is not a adrenaline chasing womanizer? That would be the universe." *Giggles*

[10:22] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she smiles as she gets a refill and some gingerbread men cookies.-- "I could get used to this."

[10:22] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Eldax was suddenly a chipmunk in a holiday sweater.*

[10:22] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *shaking her head* "I'd give T'ghor the clap, but pretty sure that one's going to do it for him."

[10:23] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *he looked the nausicaan over* Sorry T'ghor, I don't think I have anyone that can top this for you..

[10:23] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *squeaks *

[10:23] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: and now you ar a chipmunk...or are you a gerbil?

[10:23] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *squeaks , squeaks  squeaks  louder *

[10:23] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Laughs, giving Istrin a nod.* "It's quite alright."

[10:23] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Silver...please

[10:23] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Eldax could suddenly speak in a Chipmunk voice.*

[10:24] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "And indeed... the top is... well. Flattering to your figure."

[10:24] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -trying had not to notice how cute he is as a chipmunk gerbil thing-

[10:24] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: hard*

[10:24] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Mu POINT is made , a pure and simple threat !!!!

[10:24] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Turns at the squeaks.* "ARGH! WHAT IS THAT?! IS THAT A TRIBBLE?!"

[10:24] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -winces as he says that as if he were alvin-

[10:24] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Giggles* "Scared of Tribbles, T'Ghor?"

[10:24] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: A gerbil squirrel thing..i think

[10:24] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdN_8OlJGs0 began playing loudly.*

[10:24] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "There we go.. tribbles for everyone.. perfect gift."

[10:24] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Aww! Who wished for a pet gerbil?!

[10:25] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -to Vay- Tribbles are NO JOke

[10:25] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Good... not a tribble..." *He then looks to Vaylith.* "Have you ever had an infestation of the things?!"

[10:25] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "They are -evil-!"

[10:25] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Of course not, they are adorable!"

[10:25] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Look its the klingon who lost his Walmuts to play wihyt testubes and trivcorders,  BuZZ off Ridgeless!!!

[10:25] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Tribbles are a ecological nightmare

[10:25] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Right?! *he looked at Vay*

[10:25] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Do not be silly infront of your supermodel girlfriend big guy, Tribbles are adorable!"

[10:25] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "That's what they want you to think, Vaylith."

[10:25] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Eldax stop lashing out at your shipmates

[10:25] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nausicaan]  "Tribbles are delicious!"

[10:26] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -to Vay- They are a menance

[10:26] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "You get one in your home, and it's all cute and fuzzy... the next day, the first floor is full of them, and they are multiplying at the speed of light."

[10:26] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "That... is just gross. Why would you eat something so adorable?"

[10:26] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: He's exagerating!

[10:26] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Ah, that's what is wrong with her, she's one that likes to eat tribble.'

[10:26] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: --to Ish He is NOT!

[10:26] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I think once there's enough tribbles around, they start eating corpses. Or people.

[10:26] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: They are horrible creatures

[10:27] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *Ish sunk a little lower, hoping the chair and table would provide cover from Valkriss*

[10:27] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dalie muses to herself, barely audible close by, as she looks about the room>*

[10:27] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "See, Vaylith? Valkriss agrees with me! And she's a smart one."

[10:27] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Taht is why you sterelize them." *Giggles* "Did you not say you where the chief science officer?"

[10:27] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *sits down and stops talking *

[10:27] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Ha! Tribbes regenerate

[10:27] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *laughs*

[10:27] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "And they remain predators at heart!"

[10:27] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -to Silvar- Change him back please

[10:28] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Give me a good and honest targ who'd try to charge you instead..."

[10:28] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Predators? hardly. Apex adorable maybe!"

[10:28] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: No. they. dont!

[10:28] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *Voiceover*  "I think he's a bit more agreeable like this..."

[10:28] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Screw you

[10:28] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Targs are basically livestock you keep as pets.

[10:28] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: This is just going to make things worse

[10:28] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *T'Ghor tried to imagine a tribble in Vaylith's arms, so she can see the dangers of a tribble... taking a few steps back.*

[10:28] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Eldax calm down...you are being combative as well

[10:29] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "I actually can screw myself, but I'll wait until later."

[10:29] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Eldax turned back into his normal self.*

[10:29] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Like a goat or cattle.

[10:29] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Hes made us prisnors to his whims, and now hes done this , Lets jsut shis is Q wanna be ass, more,

[10:29] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "So it is winter holidays, lets not talk about quite... archaic practices of eating things that been alive. alright? Surely you all want your wintergifts?"

[10:29] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Sorry, was that Federation basic?"

[10:30] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I'm just enjoying having a bit of rest."

[10:30] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Eldax...relax we are in no danger here

[10:30] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: You try and speak Basic wiht Treeth like this

[10:30] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "And I'm trying to imagine a bit of a gift for you, but it seems Silver ain't cooperating."

[10:30] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: It more like a holodeck hosted party

[10:30] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Pretty sure klingons still practice it.

[10:30] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: You trust me do you not?

[10:30] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "He seem a bit preoccupied with euhmm... your friend?"

[10:30] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: If it was the holodeck  i could walk out not be forced into something i dont want

[10:30] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Hey, I'm trying to deal with the prima donna over here, give me a break T'Ghor."

[10:30] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *Istrin chuckled loudly*

[10:30] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Friend is... an overexaggeration... and yea, sorry, Silver. I get you."

[10:31] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Looking at Captain T'Pang, Dali considers... and nods* "A snowglobe, picturing an idylic scene from old movies like this."

[10:31] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -sighs- I am trying to help you here Eldax....we are not being forced to do much other than relax and socialize with shimates and old friends

[10:31] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: SO yes  what silver is doing is Holding us agaisnt our will,  not exsactly  what the federation stands for ,,

[10:31] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, Silver! Would you censor too much of the aristocrats joke if I do it?"

[10:31] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he sips his wine*

[10:32] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: You are taking what is happening to its most extreme example

[10:32] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --looks at the doctor with a hot cocoa mustashe.-- "what did you say doctor?"

[10:32] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Tell you what Eldax, you can go upstairs and play some Nintendo if you don't want to be a nice boy and talk with your shipmates that you avoid three hundred and sixty four days out of the..

[10:32] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: year?"

[10:32] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *He took another sip from the boob flask.*

[10:33] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "I want to put on Die Hard... or the house that bled to death."

[10:33] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Yes, let's put on Die Hard! Best human festive movie!"

[10:33] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Is this normally how the Pilgrim celebrate the winter holidays?"

[10:33] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Or what!! stay here an d enjoy bieng turned into a freak of nature by another freak of nature like you silver so you dont feel so alone  in thier mighty power?

[10:34] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Last year we were rather seperate.

[10:34] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --blinks-- "...the house that ...bled to death? sounds grouesome."

[10:34] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Die hard marathon? *he offered*

[10:34] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I spent my last winter holidays with a friend from another ship, but mostly."

[10:34] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Eldax what the hell has gotten into you

[10:34] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I was for roma with Dahlia, and a few others.

[10:34] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: There is no true threat here

[10:34] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "You went to Italy? What is it like?"

[10:34] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Wow.  Okay.  If you want to be like that."  *One of the presents under the tree vanished.*

[10:35] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: No Magna Roma.

[10:35] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Come on out the coast, have a few laughs.."

[10:35] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I was raised in italy, though."

[10:35] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: He's from italy. *he nods to t'ghor

[10:35] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *he gave t'ghor a strange look* Is that why you sometimes smell like pasta primavera?

[10:35] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  *He beamed and giggled as the TV changed to Mister R'Jer's Christmas Special.*

[10:35] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Magna Roma... oh... that place. Well That must been something!"

[10:35] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li sets him out on his lap so Adrian could have the best look.*

[10:35] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Yes, I often make pasta."

[10:36] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Bull, hes no better than the  Haakonian Order who tryed forcing my people to do what they wanted  and when we resisted, they Killed every talaxinan  on the moon.

[10:36] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Deities! It makes so much sense now!

[10:36] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: It is. A wonderous clash of ancient and modern.

[10:36] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Depending on the continent you walk on.

[10:36] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: That is not what is happening here

[10:36] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: So in a way very much like earth.

[10:37] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I do not think he has any idea of anything that doesn't involve the helm controls, no. "

[10:37] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Hon...if an of that was true ...youve already taunted him to the point of getting smushed and here you are

[10:38] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "You know I'm right, valkriss."

[10:38] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  *He sat down in his chair with his whiskey, a foul look still on his face as he watched the Christmas special.*

[10:38] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Gibsmacks T'Ghor.*

[10:39] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "T'Ghor, lets take a walk."

[10:39] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she stands up. -- "Silver, if Mister Eldax wishes to leave he should be free to do so at any time he chooses. UNless you intend to keep us prisoners here."

[10:39] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Muttergrumbles but nods at VayVay.*

[10:39] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Thank you Captain

[10:39] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "CHILDREN!"  *There was a deafening silence as even the TV went quiet.*

[10:40] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Stops in her catwalking stride and turns to the center of the room.*

[10:40] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Eldax lost his voice.*

[10:40] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --frowns--

[10:40] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *sips wine*

[10:40] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Stops next to VayVay and turns as well, frowning and iting back any comments.*

[10:40] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *istrin quietly nibbled as the scolding commenced*

[10:40] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *yearns for the sands of the arena*

[10:40] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *trys to talk but cant as hes made even more a prisioner by Silver

[10:41] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "As thrilling and very... very similar to holidays I used to have back home... you're missing the damn point."

[10:41] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *after watching T'Ghor gibsmacked by Vaylith several times, she decided what she wants for christmas*

[10:42] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "It was something I saw even when I was just a lowly enlisted jackass in the lower decks of the Pilgrim.  No one wants to branch out and reach out to each other.  Now, I can definitely see..

[10:42] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: why in one certain case, but for the love of whatever gods you all worship can't you all be good ONE DAY out of the year?"

[10:43] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Mutters something about trying his best*

[10:43] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *he shushed T'ghor*

[10:43] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "...it not something you can force..and speaking of not branching out. I have invited you to join us in person and not as a disembodied voice."

[10:43] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "If you want to go, you can go.  But don't bitch me out for trying to make your holiday nice."

[10:44] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "We are a recalcitrant set of peoples in the milkyway, we don't like doing what people want when the try to make us."

[10:44] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --nods to the doctor.--

[10:44] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *The cosmic ginger appeared again in his ugly sweater.*  "Because this isn't about me.  It's about you."

[10:45] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "..It does not have to be all about us. Besides Silver was once a member of our crew."

[10:45] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "I'm staying, because of what you are trying to do, suggestion next time, invitations."

[10:46] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *he sighed.*  "Everyone's a critic..."  *He snapped his fingers and Eldax could speak again.*

[10:46] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I was quite enjoying myself as well, despite someone loudly trying to ruin it."

[10:47] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "...I think this is what families do..fight all the time."

[10:47] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cristol]  "It's what mine does!"  *She said through a mouth full of turkey.*

[10:47] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Well, it was not a holiday if my father didn't break something over my head..."

[10:48] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "This is why I prefer Hanukkah..."

[10:49] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Vulcan families don't so much fight as they give one another judgemental stares over dinner."

[10:49] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "It's like I said... you spend time with people you love and miss, till you can't stand to anymore, and miss them again when they are gone. At least one Vega, probably Earth, that's how it was."

[10:49] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Sounds like my mother."

[10:49] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "That's typical Vulcan MO, yes... either way, can we continue, with... disruptive influences being thrown out if needed?"

[10:50] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods ant Dahlia-- "indeed doctor."

[10:50] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Yes, yes... who wants presents?!"

[10:50] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he sits down agian*

[10:50] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "is thier a present under the tree for me?"

[10:50] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Didn't T'Ghor already get his?"

[10:50] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Most people, I imagine."

[10:50] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: you did ,

[10:50] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "There's presents for everyone!"

[10:51] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "My family is... the lvoely reason I love the winter holidays really."

[10:51] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: (( mt ))

[10:51] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *T"Ghor tried not to look too gutpunched by VayVay's statement.*

[10:51] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: T'ghor gets to wait his turn now.

[10:51] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: that what you said

[10:51] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he looks at zalythia a moment*

[10:51] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Either way, what were you saying, Vaylith?"

[10:51] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Before the scolding?"

[10:52] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He got a package from under the tree and handed it off to T'Ghor.*

[10:52] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Thank you!" *He opened it.*

[10:52] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "So do I think up what I want to get the others and tell you, or...?"

[10:53] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *T"Ghor just stared at the little jewelry box in his hands.* "No... I... wow..."

[10:54] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Merry Christmas, big guy."  *He headed back to the tree.*

[10:54] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Thanks..."

[10:54] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Who's next?!"

[10:55] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: You have my curiousity silver.

[10:55] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I believe Vaylith deserves to go next." *Patpats the trill's shoulder, trying to get her away from his more emotional state.*

[10:55] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Marcus called it first."  *He picked up a wrapped package and handed it over to Aquila.*

[10:55] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li bounces Adrian on his lap as the show goes on.*

[10:55] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he took it and did as t'ghor did*

[10:56] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Li, I wonder if you would let me?" *she says gesturing to the child and holding her arms out.*

[10:56] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --nibbles on a cookie watching the presents get passed out.--

[10:57] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods, passing Adrian to her.*

[10:57] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  "Mlem..."  *He wiggled as he was passed to Dali.*

[10:57] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he looks at the trinkits and a dagger* A polticians dagger. Interesting.

[10:58] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he looked at the small figurine of Janus*

[10:58] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "I'm very good at finding lost things," *he winked and headed back to the tree.*

[10:58] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dali wrinkles her nose a little and makes little faces at the baby after making sure she had him safely and feeling secure on her lap.*

[10:59] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  *His nose scrunched up even more than it was naturally and he babbled nonsensically at her.*

[10:59] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Indeed you are, Silver..." *Was still looking in awe at the closed jewelry box in his hands.*

[10:59] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: A well formed gift silver, my gratitdue,.

[10:59] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Don't tell me, you bought it at an Orion thrift shop, former owner no longer needing it?"

[10:59] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "No, I stole it from 78 CE."  *He picked up a package and took it to Vaylith.*

[11:00] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Smiles warmly to Silver and holds out her arms to accept her gift.* "Thank you, Silver."

[11:00] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He nodded, handing it over.*  "You may not appreciate it now... but you will when the party's over."

[11:01] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he looked at the dagger a little closer*

[11:01] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Curiously peeked at VayVay's present.*

[11:01] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --looks over at Aquila-- "is that dagger what I think it is?"

[11:01] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "How omnious of you dear." *Starts carefully opening the gift, unwrapping it slowly.*

[11:03] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: That depends. This crest is that of Marcus Antonius, more commonly known as Marc Antony. And its from one year before vesuvian eruption.

[11:03] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Ah.. makes sense."

[11:03] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "then it is probably not what I was thinking.."

[11:04] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Picks up a adorable, slightly lovingly worn plushie resembeling a cute Trill animal from the gift. Looking quite confused.* "Silver... Why are you giving me my own plushie?"

[11:04] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: If you were thinkign it was one that plunged in Casear's back. about 100 years out of date for that.

[11:04] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He gave her a sad smile.*  "Like I said... you'll appreciate it more after the party."

[11:05] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Affectionately hugs the plushie as she watches Silver, clearly expecting an explanation.*

[11:05] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dali touched him on the nose and made popping sound, then looks very surprised... does it again, and acks like it's happening because of touching his nose... cheering up significantly, playing such.*

[11:05] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods to Aquila.-- "..my knowledge of the time period is questionable at best."

[11:05] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  *He put his tiny hands to his nose as she does so, his eyes wide with wonder and giggles erupting from his little mouth.*

[11:05] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Much of our own history at the time is mor elegend than fact.

[11:06] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he spun the dagger in his hand* This is small enough to carry under uniform*

[11:06] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Silver loves a bit of mystery, Vaylith. Let him have this."

[11:06] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "But why give me something that was in my quarters before I got here? IT makes absolutely no sense?"

[11:07] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "As I said... likely a ploy of his."

[11:07] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He headed back to the tree, avoiding Vay's question.*  "Whoooo's next?"

[11:07] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Shrugs confused and keeps hugging her plushie animal.*

[11:07] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *He went and gave Vay a small friendly hug.* "I'll wish you up a tribble too, but don't blame me if it goes feral."

[11:07] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods at Marcus-- "..indeed, I see no reason why not."

[11:08] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And these are house gods.

[11:08] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "They key is doctor McCoys treatment for them, the ones before that is a bit of a problem."

[11:08] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "As I said... they are predators at heart. Even sterilized."

[11:08] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Predators of what? your holiday candy?"

[11:09] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --glances over at Silver.--

[11:09] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he puts down the little janus, minerva and Discordia.

[11:09] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Where is my present?"

[11:09] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I have heard tales of an entire klingon house being eaten by a legion of invading tribbles..."

[11:09] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He picked up a box, carrying it over to T'Pang.*  "Right here!"

[11:09] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Legends, T'Ghor. Legends."

[11:09] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --smiles, beaming happily as she takes the gift.-- "oh thank you."

[11:10] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Most legends start from a grain of truth."

[11:10] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she looks at the tag-- "From...Santa?"

[11:10] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Trust me, I'm an archaeologist."

[11:10] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Convenient you said Grain.. of truth."

[11:10] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Yes, The truth probably went something in line with Ate an entire households food supply."

[11:11] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Valkriss and I really need to organize a presnetation on the dangers of tribbles..."

[11:11] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *he tilted his head at T'ghor*

[11:11] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --opens the present and pulls out a Vulcan logic puzzle.--

[11:11] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li plays peekaboo with Adrian.*

[11:11] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "That looks interesting Captain."

[11:11] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  *He looked worriedly at Li, wondering where his daddy had gone.*

[11:11] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --her eyes moisten up.-- "I used to have one just like this when I was little..."

[11:12] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "T'Ghor. Please do not be silly. a McCoyed Tribble holds none of the problems that you are so paranoid about."

[11:12] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Okey, okey... I already made a wish about a pacified tribble for you to Silver, I am sure he will grant it once he's done with the other presents."

[11:12] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "I know, Captain.  You were so close to solving it, too."  *he winked.*

[11:13] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dali gave the little boy a hug, and gave him back to his parent, a little whisftully.*

[11:13] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --hug the puzzle to her chest, smiling-- "thank you for this Silver...I mean Santa.."

[11:13] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Boo!

[11:14] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: I had no clue you had a bad day till you tossed that out aftert you were allready mad,

[11:14] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Gaah

[11:14] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Ho, ho."  *He headed back to the tree and picked up another package, bringing it over to Istrin.*

[11:15] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *Istrin accepted the present and opened it* Oooh.

[11:15] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --is busy playing with her logic puzzle.--

[11:17] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Are these from Arril's candy store from back home? *he reached in and grabbed a wrapped up candy*

[11:18] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "The very same!"

[11:18] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: I hope you traded something in return for them.. *he mumbled before popping one into his mouth*

[11:18] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Arril's having a very merry Christmas, trust me."

[11:19] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Thank you!

[11:20] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He headed back to the tree, coming back with a box for Li.*

[11:21] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "I feel bad I did not get anyone gifts. But, this was a surprise."

[11:23] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Oh, it's alright Ma'am! We still have time until the big day. *he smiled*

[11:23] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --nods--

[11:23] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "it's a common feeling Captain... I would not let it bother you."

[11:24] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Merry Christmas everyone..."

[11:25] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Here you go, Li."  *He handed him the box.*

[11:25] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Thank you.

[11:25] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *sips his wine*

[11:26] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -to T'Pang= Merry Christmas Captain -toasts her-

[11:26] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "So Marcus, what holiday do your people celebrate this time of year?"

[11:27] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: There are several but the primary is the Saturnalia.

[11:27] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li opens the box.*

[11:27] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *walks back out after having talked with T'Ghor in a corner.*

[11:27] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Of course many magna romans celebrate a version of htis one. As they follow the Son.

[11:27] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And there are Jews that celebrate theres.

[11:27] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He cleared his throat.*

[11:27] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Rhinelanders have their own as well.

[11:28] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Looks to Silver.*

[11:28] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods to Aquila and looks over at Silver.--

[11:28] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li's eyes go wide.*

[11:28] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And the Gauls worship the solstice.

[11:28] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Happy... Gratitude Festival, I guess?"

[11:29] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --looks over at Li.-- "What did you get Li?"

[11:29] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Yule is popular... isn't it?"

[11:29] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: That is one name for the rhinelander celebrations.

[11:29] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *looking to Silver*

[11:30] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *then at Li*

[11:30] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  *He looked at Li curiously, reaching for the box.*

[11:30] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *looked at he child*

[11:30] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "What did he get you, one of your prophet orbs?"

[11:31] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Nah, they notice when you take those out of the timeline..."

[11:31] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --looks at Silver-- "indeed they would/

[11:32] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: It was my grandfather's d'ja pagh.

[11:32] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li holds up the earring.*

[11:32] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --raises and eyebrow-- "facinating. I take it the object in question was considered lost previously?"

[11:33] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jill]  "Oh, wow... wait... Silver, you didn't dig up any graves to get this, did you..?"

[11:33] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Me?!  You wound me with the suggestion..."

[11:33] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "DO they bury the dead with those in your culture Li?"

[11:34] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: No.

[11:34] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "I imagine there is a story associated with it."

[11:35] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: It was in my parent's house when the Hur'q attacked the Bajoran system.

[11:35] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jill]  *She frowned with that.*

[11:38] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Thank you.

[11:38] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Of course, buddy..."  *He got another package, handing it to Dalli.*

[11:40] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --smiled--

[11:40] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "You didn't have to... getting to play with the little one for a few minutes, that was enough."

[11:41] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *She smiles at the baby then then looks at the package... jaw dropping*

[11:42] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --watches Dahlia expectantly--

[11:42] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He winked and put a finger to his lips before he went to get another package.*

[11:42] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *She moves to pen the package.. then stops...* "Marcus, lend me that knife."

[11:42] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he draws it and hands it to her*

[11:43] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --watches Dahlia curiously--

[11:43] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *She very carefully uses the knife to cut the tape, and opens the old looking paper wrapping, and blinks an awe at each of the reels of magnetic tape as she lifts them carefully.*

[11:44] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --cants her head--

[11:44] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Thank you... it will be shared... as soon as it's able to be preserved..." *looking to Marcus* "music.. old music."

[11:45] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He took the next package to Valkriss with a little smirk.*  "You might want to open this one out of sight of the others."

[11:45] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: A fitting gift for your collection.

[11:45] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "fascinating, magnetic tape?"

[11:45] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he takes the knife back when she hands it to him.*

[11:45] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *nodding*

[11:46] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *he looked at dalli's present with slight interest*

[11:46] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "an interesting if not antiquated method of data storage."

[11:47] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  *he poured himself more whiskey.*

[11:48] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --glances over at Valkriss curiously--

[11:48] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "It is ... but the foundation has experts for preserving it... it will be added to the collection and the cultural database."

[11:54] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He gave Valkriss' box a tiny shake as he held it out to her.*

[11:54] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles and opens it- Thank you Sil...what is this -looks inside and her eyes go wide-

[11:55] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: How..how did you? -lifts out the pretty ink ballerina jewlry box-

[11:55] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He winked.*  "I'm a cheap knockoff Q, remember?"

[11:55] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: [ the ciche'   https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/25b90e80-7e01-4a3e-b3c3-58b636f67e83_1.c3011e1797d893464773e8cc9acc3cad.jpeg ]

[11:55] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles and pulls him into a hug- I thought it lost ....thank you

[11:55] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles- Illya's just gonna love this

[11:56] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He returned the hug, utterly unphased by the Klingon strength.*  "My recommendation, hide it somewhere in your quarters and set it to play when you go on duty... see how long it takes for..

[11:56] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: her to call you in a rage."

[11:56] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -laughs and winks- I ve just the place...

[11:57] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He winked in return, looking at Eldax.*  "You still going to be a Grumpy Gus, or do you want your present?"

[11:57] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: She is going ot love 'Swan Lake and Giselle's first movement-

[11:57] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -adoringly rus a finger over her old favorite childhood prize-

[11:58] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Quit holding me prisioner to your fantacy of a life you lost.

[11:59] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Don't say I didn't try."  *He snapped his fingers and Eldax vanished.*

[12:00] [DOIC6] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Eldax reappeared... in the Citadel brig, behind a force field.*

[12:01] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Holds her plushie against her soemwhat pushed up chest as she watches the beautiful scene.*

[12:02] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dali sits cataloging by name, putting them into her PADD*

[12:04] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "...I consider that a gift to myself.  Anyway."  *He grabbed another gift, handing it over to grumpy Rhys in his chair.*  "Last but not least, Scrooge himself."

[12:04] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  "Can I just get a ticket back, too?"

[12:04] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Nope.  Open it."

[12:04] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: *he looked over at Rhys* But.. *he then nodded at silver*

[12:05] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  *He sighed, opening the box... and froze.  He stared into it for a long, long moment.*

[12:06] [DOIC1] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *looking over at Rhys*

[12:06] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  *He put the lid back on, not speaking right away until he muttered,*  "...Thanks, Silver."

[12:07] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Tis the season, I'm told."  *he booped Adrian on the forehead.*  "And you... your gift comes later, little man."

[12:07] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  *He giggled and grabbed Silver's finger.*

[12:08] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He gasped, dropping to his knees.*  "Ohh!  What a mighty grip!  You broke my finger!"

[12:08] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  *He laughed happily at the silly noises.*

[12:08] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I would offer to take a look at it but... I somehow dubt its needed." *Smiles lightly.*

[12:09] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He winked at Vayvay.*

[12:09] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Winks back.*

[12:09] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Alright... I miss anyone?"  *He looked around.*

[12:10] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cristol]  *She was loading up bottles of magic booze into a sack.*

[12:10] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Cristol?

[12:10] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "She got what she wanted, trust me."

[12:11] [DOIC1] Istrin@the5of435: Oh. uhm okay..

[12:11] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cristol]  "Yeah... I'm good with this," *she waved a bottle.*

[12:11] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Looks at Jill*

[12:11] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li looks at Jill and then at Silver.*

[12:12] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Oh!  And how could I forget..."  *Another package appeared in his hands, and he handed it to Jill.*

[12:12] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: What is Adrian's gift?

[12:12] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jill]  "Oh!  Um... thank you..."

[12:12] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "I told you, he gets his gift later.  Trust me, it's a good one."

[12:12] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li frowns.* I'd like to at least know what it is.

[12:13] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jill]  *She unwrapped the present, her eyes going wide.  She began blinking back tears as she showed Li an older-style combadge in a neat little frame.*  "Li..."

[12:13] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: What is it?

[12:14] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jill]  "It... it's my dad's combadge.  I thought it was destroyed along with his body in the... in the accident on the Enigma..."

[12:14] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li looks over at SIlver.*

[12:14] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Nothing's ever so lost that I can't find it."  *he winked.*

[12:16] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Blinks once.* "Excuse me, What was his name?"

[12:16] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jill]  "C-commander Adrian Dower."

[12:16] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  *He cooed on hearing his own name.*

[12:17] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I know of him, His deeds are still remembered and honoured to this day on the Engima, His sacrefice and also who he was before that day. He was a great man."

[12:17] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jill]  *She nodded, wiping away tears with her sleeve as she showed Adrian the framed badge.*  "See, Adrian?  This was your grandpa's, a long long time ago..."

[12:18] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li smiles at this.*

[12:18] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Adrian]  *He gurgled, putting his tiny little hand on the frame and looking up at Jill and Li.*

[12:19] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jill]  "...Thank you.  This... this means a lot."  *She gave Silver a grateful smile.*

[12:20] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  *He gave a flourishing bow.*  "Well, on that lovely note... are you all ready to go back?"

[12:21] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I am in no hurry untill Caritha is done. Not getting any spagetti till she is ready anyways." *Winks.*

[12:22] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li looks to Jill.*

[12:22] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jill]  *She wiped her eyes again, nodding.*  "Yeah... I'm ready..."

[12:22] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys]  *he was still very quiet, staring at his box.*

[12:23] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods to Silver.*

[12:24] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Silver]  "Well then, off you go... and a happy nondenominational holiday season to all!"  *He snapped his fingers, and everyone was back in their quarters on the Pilgrim or Citadel.*

[12:25] [DOIC6] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li looks happy as he holds onto the earring.*

[12:28] [DOIC6] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jill]  *She turned to hug Li tightly.*

[12:28] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Wakes up in her post-borg self style ontop of her bed, mechanically looking around in a methodic manner.*

[12:29] [DOIC6] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li hugs her.*

[12:29] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The plushie was resting on the bed next to her.*

[12:30] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Stares down the plushe for nearly a minute before hesitantly reaching to grab it.*

[12:33] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Captain Arfacio stated you had been destroyed... Being highly emotional over such fact."

[12:33] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The plushie did not respond.*

[12:34] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Why are you here..."

[12:35] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Plushie]  "..."

[12:35] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Computer, Have anyone entered my quarters during my regeneration?"

[12:36] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Computer]  "Negative."

[12:36] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Transporter activations?"

[12:36] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Computer]  "No transporter activations were detected in this room during regeneration cycle."

[12:37] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "How peculiar..."

[12:39] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Upload security fotage of my bedroom during regeneration cycle for review."

[12:40] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Vaylith was greeted with a very uneventful log of her regeneration.  Shortly before she awakened, the footage showed her bed empty for a split second, and then she reappeared with the plushie...

[12:40] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: beside her.*

[12:41] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Display sensor log of timestamp XYZ.12"

[12:41] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The sensor log was displayed with no anomalies.*

[12:42] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Silver, Are you involved in this? Is this another of your tricks?"

[12:43] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *A paper card fluttered down from the ceiling, landing right on Vaylith's head.*

[12:44] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *has a stoic looks as she is landed on, reaching to grab the paper card to give it a look.*

[12:45] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *It was a generic Christmas Card with a picture of Santa and his reindeer on the cover.*

[12:45] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Understood..."

[12:46] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Sits down on the edge of her bed, placing the plushie in her lap and resumes staring at it.*

[12:50] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Cants her head slightly as she continues studying the stuffed toy.*
