  2.  
  3. [10:11] [DOIC] Sereya Eren@liorexus: ** The Citadel is decked out, there's a holodeck with a winter wonderland, and there's sleighbells in the theme song. GO. **
  4.  
  5. [10:13] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos is patiently waiting for a plate of cookies and a glass of milk to be replicated.*
  6.  
  7. [10:13] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren stepped into the lounge, adjusting her dress as she took a glance around.*
  8.  
  9. [10:13] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *On the holodeck, Serris waddles out into the snow dunes, an unrecognizable bundle of coat, mittens, scarf, and hat.*
  10.  
  11. [10:13] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Jeb strolls on over toward where Sinez is sat and folds his armss looking at him-
  12.  
  13. [10:13] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I still can't believe you convinced me to come here."
  14.  
  15. [10:14] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *sinez glances up at the encroaching form, grinning once he realizes who it is* Hmm.. look what the cat dragged back from the dead..
  16.  
  17. [10:14] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *The betazoid only had a simple black coat and a scarf wound around his neck.* "You can't spend the entire break just eating or working on the project..."
  18.  
  19. [10:14] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Flies in to the lounge, happily following Eren and trying to be sneaky*
  20.  
  21. [10:15] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Can't I at least spend it some place warm?"
  22.  
  23. [10:15] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos smiles down at the tiny sweatered snake wrapping around his hand.*
  24.  
  25. [10:15] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Jeb grins at Sinez- Cat? It was a Lion dude, no Cat strong enough.
  26.  
  27. [10:15] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: What do they call those things? Pumas? What about those?
  28.  
  29. [10:16] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "That defeats the purpose, it's something about how this sort of festivity's supposed to pull us all closer together in the cold, dead winter months."
  30.  
  31. [10:16] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "At least that's how I remembered Earth culture studies."
  32.  
  33. [10:16] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "My homeworld doesn't have winter."
  34.  
  35. [10:16] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Mountain Lions?
  36.  
  37. [10:16] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I'm literally not evolved to enjoy this."
  38.  
  39. [10:16] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: I dunno.. you're the human here.. *he chuckles*
  40.  
  41. [10:17] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren glanced at Sinez' table for a moment, but seeing him occupied she headed for the bar, oblivious to Skye's presence.*
  42.  
  43. [10:17] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *The tiny, miserable bundle of warm stops in the knee-high snow and looks around at how obnoxiously Christmas-y everything is.*
  44.  
  45. [10:17] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Eeeh, whatever, how's life on the Adagio; miss me yet?
  46.  
  47. [10:17] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he chuckles to himself as he notices eren's tail following close behind*
  48.  
  49. [10:17] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos raises his eyes from the snake and smiles at Eren.* "Looking good."
  50.  
  51. [10:17] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Continious flying sneakily behind Eren, giggeling a little to herself*
  52.  
  53. [10:18] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He smirked down at Serris.* "What if I told you that the best part of getting cold was the warming up, after?"
  54.  
  55. [10:18] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li is nursing a drink in a corner of the lounge.*
  56.  
  57. [10:18] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Actuall not really.. Lonah's working the teams hard.. *he looks over at little skye, grinning again*
  58.  
  59. [10:18] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos notices a little something behind Eren, but pretends to be totally oblivious to it.*
  60.  
  61. [10:18] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I'd tell you to set the damn trees on fire and get it over with."
  62.  
  63. [10:18] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idira> -Plops herself next to Li and looks to him then fiddles with ehr fingers- So uh, hi?
  64.  
  65. [10:18] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well, I wear only my uniform most days out of the year, it's nice to have an excuse."
  66.  
  67. [10:19] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris trips on something under the snow, the giant coat tumbling face-first into the snow. His arms flail, and because of the bulk of his clothes, he can't seem to get up.*
  68.  
  69. [10:19] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *hugs Eren from behind* "HIIII!"
  70.  
  71. [10:19] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Looks over to Skye then back to Sinez- And what's that -points at Skye-
  72.  
  73. [10:19] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Hi! *Li gives her a small smile.*
  74.  
  75. [10:19] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Looks over to Skye then back to Sinez- And what's that -points at Skye-
  76.  
  77. [10:19] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Definitely. It looks good enough for you not to need an excuse, though..." *He smiles at Skye's hug.* "Hi, Skye."
  78.  
  79. [10:20] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Oh.. just a member of our keth.. she's really cute.. you'd melt once you got to meet her.. I did in maybe 5 seconds..
  80.  
  81. [10:20] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> -Smiles some- I heard some bad stuff happened.
  82.  
  83. [10:20] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "I don't think we'll have to in a holo--- Serris!" *He stepped over for a moment, pausing as he tried to keep from laughing before leaning down to gently try to pick him up.* "Heh..."
  84.  
  85. [10:20] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He manages to at least roll over, laying in the snow and looking straight up at the sky past Kol.*
  86.  
  87. [10:20] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "If this is what 'Christmas' is like, then I hate it."
  88.  
  89. [10:20] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The little snake unwraps itself from Ankos' hand and starts slithering on the counter towards the two potential new friends/future prey.*
  90.  
  91. [10:20] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Jeb shakes his head and extends his hand- Dude you know I've gotta revoke your Man Card now.
  92.  
  93. [10:20] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods.* I did...a lot of things that range from embarrassment to downright...mean.
  94.  
  95. [10:20] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: I was kind of surprised you came over.
  96.  
  97. [10:21] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he ignores the hand being extend and looks away* You missed a whole lot my friend..
  98.  
  99. [10:21] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren jumped in surprise, but she soon was grinning.* "Hello, Skye! What've you been up to?"
  100.  
  101. [10:21] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> -Shrugs a little- Yeah Val is probs uh gonna uh kill me, but like my mother said I uhm can't hold a grudge for longer than like two days.
  102.  
  103. [10:21] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "You never celebrated it at the Academy? I know you were buried in your studies, but come on, there's a break every year for them..."
  104.  
  105. [10:22] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Retracts the hand- Quite the lot it seems.
  106.  
  107. [10:22] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He just stares at Kol blankly.*
  108.  
  109. [10:22] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "You call this celebrating? I call it torture."
  110.  
  111. [10:22] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "The cold is no friend of mine."
  112.  
  113. [10:22] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos gets his cookies and milk. He pushes the plate towards the two others.* "Help yourselves if you so wish."
  114.  
  115. [10:22] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I been doing thingys and stuffs and soo! What has you been doing?"
  116.  
  117. [10:23] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods and smiles.* I...don't know what to say other than I appreciate it. *He hugs Idria.*
  118.  
  119. [10:23] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He sighed, crossing his arms over his chest.* "If you want to go, we can go. I just thought you might enjoy it."
  120.  
  121. [10:23] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he looks back at him* Yeah lots..here I am.. trying to be a better person, yet with all that effort, im still just the same piece of shit.
  122.  
  123. [10:23] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Just enjoying the days off, Skye, and all the wonderful company the Citadel has to offer," *she grinned.*
  124.  
  125. [10:23] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> -Hugs Li- I'm sure Valkriss will forgive you sometime.
  126.  
  127. [10:24] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Do you enjoy it?"
  128.  
  129. [10:24] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: I dunno if I deserve it...but thanks.
  130.  
  131. [10:24] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Yes! So many new friends to meet!"
  132.  
  133. [10:24] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Jeb quirks a brow- Since when have you been a pice of shit? You're a bro.
  134.  
  135. [10:25] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> My mother always said that uhm, everyone deserves forgiveness, two wrongs don't make I right.. I think uhm that's how it goes.
  136.  
  137. [10:25] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Well yes, but if it's only going to make you miserable there's no point in staying," *he frowned.*
  138.  
  139. [10:25] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *shaking his head* Mhmm.. right.. that's what I tried telling myself.
  140.  
  141. [10:25] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: She seems like a good woman.
  142.  
  143. [10:26] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "My research has said that relationships are about compromise. I don't know if our arrangement qualifies, exactly, but I'll stay if we can at least be by the fire."
  144.  
  145. [10:26] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idira> The best! -she beams-
  146.  
  147. [10:26] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The snake notices Skye's strange colouration and curiously goes up towards her, booping her leg with its nose.*
  148.  
  149. [10:26] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Jeb folds his arms- Alright then, so what did you do that makes you sucha pice of shit?
  150.  
  151. [10:26] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She smirked lopsidedly.* "Yes... yes, there are, Skye."
  152.  
  153. [10:27] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Looks a little suspisious at the snake as it looks like something worrysome, but she casiously sits down to look at the snake*
  154.  
  155. [10:27] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos gives a small smirk.* "Oh, most definitely."
  156.  
  157. [10:27] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: I'll give you the variables.. bloodwine.. too much bloodwine.. blonde trill.. me..*he eyes him*You do the math.
  158.  
  159. [10:27] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "So it's an arrangement, now?" *he asked bemusedly, then motioned in the direction of the little holiday cabin in the distance.* "That gonna do?"
  160.  
  161. [10:28] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris is sat up, looking in that direction.* "Yes, please."
  162.  
  163. [10:28] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: So you got drunk and screwed a girl? -He ponders- Let me guess, K'Ria wasn't happy.
  164.  
  165. [10:28] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *scratching the side of his head* Far from happy yeah.
  166.  
  167. [10:28] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The snake rises up a bit, studying Skye... she seemed almost... tasty. Maybe in a few months or so...* *Ankos frowns at the snake, sending it some telepathic warnings.*
  168.  
  169. [10:29] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He offered Serris a hand.*
  170.  
  171. [10:29] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Dont bite me!"
  172.  
  173. [10:29] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li smiles.* Enjoying time back on the Pilgrim? The Romulan ship keep giving me headaches because of the noise.
  174.  
  175. [10:29] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Oh, Skye, she's not going to bite you..." *She looked at Ankos.* "Right?"
  176.  
  177. [10:29] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris takes it, trying to balance his natural blueberry strength well enough to pull himself up without pulling Kol down.*
  178.  
  179. [10:29] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Don't worry, she doesn't bite." *Ankos smiles at Skye. As if to confirm, the snake booped Skye again.*
  180.  
  181. [10:29] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> I'm glad I uh understand everything again, plus I guess the Pilgrim is like home, right?
  182.  
  183. [10:30] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: At least for me.
  184.  
  185. [10:30] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I love your suepr dressy dressed, they are so nice!"
  186.  
  187. [10:30] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris stands up, seeming a bit lethargic. He's also shivering.*
  188.  
  189. [10:30] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Besides, you're too big for her to eat, and she knows it."
  190.  
  191. [10:31] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He leaned a little when Serris took his hand, but somehow managed to stay standing. He frowned slightly to see Serris shivering.* "Come on... it's not that far even in the snow," *he said...
  192.  
  193. [10:31] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> -Nods some and swings her legs around- What ship are all these people from?
  194.  
  195. [10:31] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: as he headed off for the cabin, keeping Serris' mittened hand in his own.*
  196.  
  197. [10:31] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *shivers in clear intense discomfort at the eat comment*
  198.  
  199. [10:31] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he quirks a brow at the big man* Think of me as a piece of shit now?
  200.  
  201. [10:31] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos frowns at his own stupidity.* "Sorry, Skye... it was a joke."
  202.  
  203. [10:31] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris moves much slower than usual, but they gradually make their way to the cabin.*
  204.  
  205. [10:32] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren eyed Ankos for a moment.*
  206.  
  207. [10:32] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: You made it up to her yet? -He muses-
  208.  
  209. [10:32] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "See, give her your hand. Try to scratch under her chin. She loves that."
  210.  
  211. [10:32] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: You mean did I apolgize and let her beat me up for it? Yeah.
  212.  
  213. [10:33] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: She cool now?
  214.  
  215. [10:33] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *hesitantly scratches the snake under the chin with her long manicured nails*
  216.  
  217. [10:33] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *A young ensign with reddish brown hair stepped into the lounge nervously, glancing around.*
  218.  
  219. [10:33] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The snake raises her chin happily, closing her eyes. Skye would probably be able to sense the baby reptile's pleasure and happy feelings.*
  220.  
  221. [10:34] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *He glances at him* Well I'm still alive aren't I?
  222.  
  223. [10:34] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *As soon as they're inside, he stumbles over to the fire and begins to take off his mittens.*
  224.  
  225. [10:34] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Move on dude, it was a thing it happened... It's in the past now.
  226.  
  227. [10:34] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *His hands are shaking and seem to be a much paler blue than usual.*
  228.  
  229. [10:35] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He raised his free hand to let the door swing inward, revealing a cheery interior that looked like the inside of most Christmas cards since the mid twentieth century.*
  230.  
  231. [10:35] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he chuckles* I keep telling myself that..
  232.  
  233. [10:35] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: The rest of the fleet, I assume? *Li waves to the Ensign.*
  234.  
  235. [10:35] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Can you help me with my jacket? I can't feel my fingers."
  236.  
  237. [10:35] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Yeah, of course," *he said with another frown, heading behind Serris to try and relieve him of the enormously puffy jacket he'd had to wear. The first layer of them, anyway.*
  238.  
  239. [10:36] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: [Valerie] *A redheaded woman walks into the bar. She notices a fairy sitting on the counter and her eyes go wide. She rubs them once, twice. Fairy was still there... Well. Guess she doesn't need more>
  240.  
  241. [10:36] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Rolls his eyes- Seriously, I've got sisters for this shit. -he chuckles- Look man be real, you have to let these things go - I mean the amount of places and holes I've been in from drinking. Eef.
  242.  
  243. [10:36] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Wine for tonight. She turns to walk away.*
  244.  
  245. [10:36] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> I guess.
  246.  
  247. [10:36] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris only put on one giant coat. Still, somehow, it didn't seem to help. He looks borderline frozen.*
  248.  
  249. [10:36] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Do you know of them?
  250.  
  251. [10:37] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "How long are we going to be on the citadel?"
  252.  
  253. [10:37] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I thought that coat was supposed to be rated for forty below zero."
  254.  
  255. [10:37] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She brightened upon seeing Li and stepped over, only noticing Idria after she'd already arrived, and she felt her mouth twist slightly in awkwardness.* "Um, hey."
  256.  
  257. [10:37] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> Hmmh -looks at them- No really although -she points at Jeb and Sinez- Those two look huge.
  258.  
  259. [10:37] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "A while!"
  260.  
  261. [10:37] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "At least the next week, I think?" *Eren shrugged as she flagged down the bartender.*
  262.  
  263. [10:37] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Yeah.. you always did kind of struck me as the type of dude who got himself in situations like that.
  264.  
  265. [10:38] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods to the comment and pats down a space next to him for Jill to sit.*
  266.  
  267. [10:38] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Should've been," *he frowned. He leaned in to study Serris, his brow furrowed slightly in concern.* "If I'd have known you'd react like this I wouldn't have made you come."
  268.  
  269. [10:39] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That's great... I haven't felt this relaxed in a while... and these things are addictive." *He munches on a cookie.*
  270.  
  271. [10:39] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Deffinately back at the academy.
  272.  
  273. [10:39] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "... Well, there's one explanation, but I hadn't factored it in because I didn't think it would have happened this fast."
  274.  
  275. [10:39] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idira> -Looks between the two awkwardly-
  276.  
  277. [10:39] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Academy.. Risa.. *he stops himself there* Yeah.. moving on.
  278.  
  279. [10:40] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *His face is a light blue contrasted by a vibrant violet in his cheeks. He was clearly very cold.*
  280.  
  281. [10:40] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She offered a small nod as she sank into the seat next to Li, her hands in her lap.* "Um, don't let me interrupt or anything."
  282.  
  283. [10:40] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Chuckles- You catch any of the Football season this year?
  284.  
  285. [10:40] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Not since we came out here to the LMC.. busy busy..
  286.  
  287. [10:41] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Stretches her arms and wings as she yawns*
  288.  
  289. [10:41] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *His brows rose.* "What explanation?" *Already he was looking around the cabin, finding a knitted blanket on one of the chairs and picking it up.*
  290.  
  291. [10:41] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he looks him over* I see the wheelchair card got old real quick huh? *he smirks*
  292.  
  293. [10:41] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Aw. Is someone tired from celebrating?"
  294.  
  295. [10:41] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "When my people begin to bond, we form a sort of passive empathic connection. If it's strong enough, we can feel the other person's senses through it as if they were our own."
  296.  
  297. [10:41] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "A little tiny bit?"
  298.  
  299. [10:42] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Dude, I had to skip legs for like ten weeks, good riddance!
  300.  
  301. [10:42] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "You mean sugar is addictive," *she smirked at Ankos and turned to the bartender as he arrived.* "Peppermint cocktail, throw whatever you want in there, I just want it to taste like peppermint."
  302.  
  303. [10:42] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "So, even though I was covered, I was still feeling the cold you were feeling. You were just able to brush it off."
  304.  
  305. [10:42] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: You're not, we were just catching up.
  306.  
  307. [10:42] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I'm not used to that."
  308.  
  309. [10:43] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Sugar in the form of cookies is even better. Help yourselves if you want."
  310.  
  311. [10:43] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> I can uh go, if you want.
  312.  
  313. [10:43] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He clenches his fists and releases them near the fire, trying to get some feeling back in his hands.*
  314.  
  315. [10:43] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he chuckles* Oh man.. I can already see the atrophy starting to happen..
  316.  
  317. [10:43] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Jebidiah Chicken Leg Hoffman.
  318.  
  319. [10:43] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He paused before he approached from behind Serris, draping the blanket over his shoulders.* "So... what, you were absorbing all the cold I would've felt..?"
  320.  
  321. [10:43] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Meanwhile, the snake has wrapped itself around Skye's hand, comfortably.*
  322.  
  323. [10:44] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: If that happened, I'd become a white man.
  324.  
  325. [10:44] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I guess. I just didn't know I was doing it."
  326.  
  327. [10:44] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Looks at her new glove*
  328.  
  329. [10:44] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "Uh, n-no, please, by all means. Stay. I don't want to... drive anyone off," *she said quickly.*
  330.  
  331. [10:44] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he furrows his brow slightly at him* That wasn't a shot at me now as it?
  332.  
  333. [10:44] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos notices.* "I can call her back if you want?"
  334.  
  335. [10:44] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Well I dunno, are White Trills like White Humans?
  336.  
  337. [10:45] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "It is okis dokis, She is not hurting me!"
  338.  
  339. [10:45] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Get rid of these spots and boom..
  340.  
  341. [10:45] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: And double check to see if theres not a symbiont in your stomach.. other than that.. yeah..
  342.  
  343. [10:45] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Oh well darn, don't know if you can come round the hood then. -he shakes his head teasingly-
  344.  
  345. [10:46] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Well... considering the extent of our telepathic connection, I guess if your species did have a bonding like that we might've kickstarted it..." *He rubbed the back of his neck for a moment.*
  346.  
  347. [10:46] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Both of you are fine.
  348.  
  349. [10:46] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He smiles.* "See? She likes you. I think you've made yet another friend."
  350.  
  351. [10:46] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li smiles.* Where have you been? *to Jill*
  352.  
  353. [10:46] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> -gnaws on her lip slightly-
  354.  
  355. [10:46] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Nevermind the... everything else."
  356.  
  357. [10:46] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: I'm sure your 'hood' would disown you and kick you out on the street if a white man were to best you.. *he grins*
  358.  
  359. [10:46] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Ain't no white man ever bested me, you know that.
  360.  
  361. [10:46] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren took one of Ankos' cookies, eyeing him and Skye as she waited on her drink.*
  362.  
  363. [10:47] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Really? That's not what the weight on that bar said last we worked out together.. *he laughs*
  364.  
  365. [10:47] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "Oh, um, well I was just getting some... holiday shopping done," *she said, looking back up at Li with a small smile of her own.*
  366.  
  367. [10:48] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: I just didn't want you to feel bad about yourself is all.
  368.  
  369. [10:48] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Ohhhh...the Christmas stuff right?
  370.  
  371. [10:48] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Feel bad for me now.. I have to work out alone now..
  372.  
  373. [10:48] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: [Bore] *A bearded man in an engineering uniform walks into the bar. He notices a fairy sitting on it, with a snake on her hand. He shakes his head, totally convinced he's going mad and he goes to the>
  374.  
  375. [10:48] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "The everything else too, definitely," *he sighed before dragging a chair over near the fire next to Serris.* "Come on, sit down and get comfortable."
  376.  
  377. [10:49] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Counter, leaning on it tiredly. He wave the bartender over.* "Large glass of... vodka."
  378.  
  379. [10:49] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She nodded.* "Only so much time to get it done..."
  380.  
  381. [10:50] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Jeb looks to Ankos, then back to Sinez- Yeah sorry, guess I was the only other real man on the ship.
  382.  
  383. [10:50] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris does as directed, sitting next to the fire in his delightfully ugly Christmas sweater.*
  384.  
  385. [10:50] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Meditation never interested me much anyways.. and yeah.. that dude's afraid of apples by the way..
  386.  
  387. [10:50] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren glanced at Bore with that, but then took her cocktail and had a sip.*
  388.  
  389. [10:50] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li looks to Idria.* Do you celebrate?
  390.  
  391. [10:51] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: For real? Apples. He's stranger than my aren't magret.
  392.  
  393. [10:51] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He pulled up a second chair.* "You want something hot? Tea, coffee, hot chocolate..?"
  394.  
  395. [10:51] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: aunt*
  396.  
  397. [10:52] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: [Bore] *Receives his vodka and turns to look at the fairy, still trying to figure out if his mind is playing tricks on him or nod, when he notices Eren's glance. He raises his glass of vodka to her, >
  398.  
  399. [10:52] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Saying nothing and taking a sip.*
  400.  
  401. [10:52] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Doesn't chocolate melt and cause burns when it gets hot?"
  402.  
  403. [10:52] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> Not really, I was once uh invited to a christmas party at the academy.
  404.  
  405. [10:52] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Tries to hug Erens arm with her own free arm*
  406.  
  407. [10:52] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He seems to have some color returning to his features.*
  408.  
  409. [10:52] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Uh... yeah, but it's in a liquid form. You're supposed to drink it."
  410.  
  411. [10:52] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *He had the right sense of taking his anger out over an intense match of a snowball fight in one of the various holodecks along with other officers*
  412.  
  413. [10:52] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "... Doesn't that burn?"
  414.  
  415. [10:53] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Kind of a pussy actually.. *he shrugs* Gotta be friends with him sadly..
  416.  
  417. [10:53] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *It seems this is one of those things that Serris is completely oblivious to.*
  418.  
  419. [10:53] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Teir] *The Andorian security officer was putting up a valiant defence of his little snow fort.*
  420.  
  421. [10:53] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren would let Skye do so, shrugging at Bore and sipping her cocktail.*
  422.  
  423. [10:54] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Sorry to hear it, no luck with Sevuk then either? What about Lonah, I mean she's probably the closest thing you'll get to a bro on the ship right?
  424.  
  425. [10:54] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "Guess it's kind of awkward celebrating all these human holidays all the time."
  426.  
  427. [10:55] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Eren?"
  428.  
  429. [10:55] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Sevuk's busy meditating away, reprimanding his dog and setting up forcefields.. Lonah's busy drilling the delta teams.. and *smirks at him* I think she's seeing someone too.
  430.  
  431. [10:55] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: It's just me myself and Ada.. she's pretty chill.
  432.  
  433. [10:55] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He breathed a laugh and shook his head.* "No... let me get you some, you'll see. Computer," *He waited for the acknowleding noise.* "Two mugs of hot chocolate with ample whipped cream."
  434.  
  435. [10:56] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> -Shrugs some- I guess I never had any friends to celebrate human holidays with.
  436.  
  437. [10:56] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Yeah...I guess I got used to it at the Academy.
  438.  
  439. [10:56] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li frowns.*
  440.  
  441. [10:56] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *AFter stockpiling and molding some snowballs, he jumps up from his cover and hurls a couple of them right at the andorian officer*
  442.  
  443. [10:56] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *On command, a tray with two mugs of the requested beverage appeared on the table behind them. Kol grabbed a mug and passed it over to Serris.* "Drink slowly."
  444.  
  445. [10:56] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Gotta weigh in on the positives I suppose, still don't know where I'm going next just got sent back out here, I feel an Citadel assignment coming on.
  446.  
  447. [10:57] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She glanced down.* "Yes, Skye?"
  448.  
  449. [10:57] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris regards the very warm mug in his hands, looking over at Kol.* "I don't think I've ever done that in my life."
  450.  
  451. [10:57] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Tomorrow I am getting Turtle!!!!"
  452.  
  453. [10:57] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She beamed.* "You are?!"
  454.  
  455. [10:57] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He smiles down at Skye.* "Congrats."
  456.  
  457. [10:57] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: Glad you're coming back out here man.. was kinda patetic seeing you down in a wheelchair.
  458.  
  459. [10:58] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: Glad you're coming back out here man.. was kinda patetic seeing you down in a wheelchair.
  460.  
  461. [10:58] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Glad you're coming back out here man.. was kinda patetic seeing you down in a wheelchair.
  462.  
  463. [10:58] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Yes! I got a message thingy that said she was on a ship on her way here and will be here tomorrow!"
  464.  
  465. [10:58] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She breathed a laugh.* "I never actually celebrated regularly until the Academy. My mom... well, she had a whole thing about how it was ridiculous to conform to a single winter solstice...
  466.  
  467. [10:58] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: holiday. One year we even did Saturnalia. It was... weird."
  468.  
  469. [10:59] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That's great. You need any help setting up the terrarium or anything? I've gotten some practice."
  470.  
  471. [11:00] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I made a big aquarium thigny thingy, and a small thingy to!"
  472.  
  473. [11:00] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: It bummed, but I got some time back in Washington with my parents and I didn't get dragged to my Grandma's house once, I'd call it worth it.
  474.  
  475. [11:00] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Well, consider it another new thing you're experiencing around me," *he shot him a smirk and took the seat next to Serris.*
  476.  
  477. [11:00] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *teasingly* Aww.. did big Jeb had to visit his grandma?
  478.  
  479. [11:01] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Teir] *He took the snowball right to the face before he dove behind his protective wall.*
  480.  
  481. [11:01] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: My grandma is nuts okay!
  482.  
  483. [11:01] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: What is that?
  484.  
  485. [11:01] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Why a big -and- a small one?" *she asked curiously.*
  486.  
  487. [11:01] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris takes a tentative sip.*
  488.  
  489. [11:01] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He smiles* "That's one lucky turtle."
  490.  
  491. [11:02] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: My grandma was super sweet.. she spoiled me rotten.. man.. do I miss her..
  492.  
  493. [11:02] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "So I can have one in my bedroom? If she wants a change of scenery?"
  494.  
  495. [11:02] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Wanna swap grandmas?
  496.  
  497. [11:02] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "It's some Roman festival of feasting and... other stuff. All I really remember was getting drunk off one glass of wine and falling asleep under the piano..."
  498.  
  499. [11:02] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: You want a dead grandma?
  500.  
  501. [11:02] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Oh shit, sorry man...
  502.  
  503. [11:03] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Under?
  504.  
  505. [11:03] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Well. Where will the other aquarium be if not in your bedroom?"
  506.  
  507. [11:03] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: It's all good.. these things happen.
  508.  
  509. [11:03] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "... Oh my."
  510.  
  511. [11:03] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Living room?"
  512.  
  513. [11:03] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "What did I tell you?" *he grinned.*
  514.  
  515. [11:03] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: [Bore] *Seems absolutely mystified at the fairy talking about turtles and starts looking into his vodka, absolutely not certain he should be drinking.*
  516.  
  517. [11:04] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Nods- I think my Grandma is going to live forever, she's like a hundred years old now?
  518.  
  519. [11:04] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: [Ankos] "You could always move the aquarium?"
  520.  
  521. [11:04] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *scans around, eventually finding another target, mentally picturing Bore's face on his newly acquired target before firing away*
  522.  
  523. [11:04] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris moves to chug the whole thing, hesitates, and takes a modest sip instead.*
  524.  
  525. [11:04] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren nodded.* "That makes sense." *She looked back at Ankos.* "Who's going tomove it for her, Counselor?"
  526.  
  527. [11:04] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Saying that my great grandma is like a hundred and twenty-five.
  528.  
  529. [11:05] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos' brows furrow.* "Yeah... I didn't think about that, I'll admit."
  530.  
  531. [11:05] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She cracked a smirk then.* "Well, it's not like I was going to crawl on top of it in that state."
  532.  
  533. [11:05] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he shrugs* SHit happens.. just be thankful you at least got some..
  534.  
  535. [11:05] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "It is so big! I made the big aquarium so like I can stand in it a little, so that it is easy to be with Turtle so she does not feel always alone in the aquarium?"
  536.  
  537. [11:05] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Guess so.
  538.  
  539. [11:06] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Feeling warmer yet?" *he asked, resting his mug on his knee as he watched the blueberry carefully.*
  540.  
  541. [11:06] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos can't help but aww at that.* "Aww. You're so nice. I'm sure the turtle would be so happy to be with you."
  542.  
  543. [11:06] [DOIC2] Jebidaih@dardez1: <Idria> -Silently gets up and tries to ninja her way out-
  544.  
  545. [11:07] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He leans on Kol.* "Much, thank you."
  546.  
  547. [11:07] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he notices a trill trying to go ninja* Look.. even she's trying to dip out early..
  548.  
  549. [11:07] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li shakes his head.* So you decided to sleep underneath it.
  550.  
  551. [11:07] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "That is also thingy! If she is in the bedroom, it is easier to feel her when sleeping, and then she an be in the big and more interesting aquarium in day when I work and do thingys, I even did a >
  552.  
  553. [11:07] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: > hologram thing for her!"
  554.  
  555. [11:08] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He leaned on him in turn.* "Like I said, getting warmed up is the best part," *he grinned.*
  556.  
  557. [11:08] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Looks around to Idria- She looks like she could use a protein shake.
  558.  
  559. [11:08] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I should make Christina some holograms too... what kinds of holograms would a snake like?" *He starts pondering.*
  560.  
  561. [11:08] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She blinked her eyes as she saw Idria sneaking off, her shoulders slumping a little.*
  562.  
  563. [11:08] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Quit eyeing her like you want to take her out for dinner..
  564.  
  565. [11:08] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li leans over to whisper to her.* Something wrong?
  566.  
  567. [11:09] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I just made one that if I am not around for some time, It feeds Turtle, and picks her up and hugs her and sees if she is okises and sends any warning to my PADD thingy"
  568.  
  569. [11:09] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "I just... hate that I'm the reason your friends don't want to be around for long," *she said, looking down at her lap.* "I should've just left you two alone..."
  570.  
  571. [11:09] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Shrugs- Doesn't look like my type, redhead though.
  572.  
  573. [11:09] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Jill...she doesn't hold a grudge.
  574.  
  575. [11:09] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That's... smart. You should teach me how to program one of those."
  576.  
  577. [11:10] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: YOu going to make a move soon? *he grins*
  578.  
  579. [11:10] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li shakes his head.* She probably just didn't want to be the third wheel is all.
  580.  
  581. [11:10] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris pauses.* "What are we, exactly?"
  582.  
  583. [11:10] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "It's not about a grudge or anything, it's... just me. I make things awkward and no one wants to hang around for long."
  584.  
  585. [11:10] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Grins- The way she's looking at him I think she's taken.
  586.  
  587. [11:11] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: When has that look stopped you? Hmm? OH please.. don't tell me the great Jeb turned a new page..
  588.  
  589. [11:11] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He looked back at Serris.* "Carbon based life forms?" *he offered with a teasing smile.*
  590.  
  591. [11:11] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "You know what I mean."
  592.  
  593. [11:11] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He pouts.*
  594.  
  595. [11:12] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Pft, no.
  596.  
  597. [11:12] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "I do," *he shrugged, looking down at his mug for a minute and then back up.* "Well, what do you want us to be?"
  598.  
  599. [11:13] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: That's not true.
  600.  
  601. [11:13] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: I'm only messing with ya man..
  602.  
  603. [11:13] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She sighed.* "Well, you -are- the exception to the rule..."
  604.  
  605. [11:13] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "So, Eren... the outfit only for the lounge? Or is there some malicious intent behind it?"
  606.  
  607. [11:14] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oki dokis! And It is a super lovely dress, why is that misicious?"
  608.  
  609. [11:14] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I have no idea what romance is supposed to be or even what it's like. You're the first person I've ever really connected with like this."
  610.  
  611. [11:14] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I'm shocked and dismayed that you'd even think that this dress is some sort of tool I'm utilising," *she scoffed.*
  612.  
  613. [11:15] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: You want to say whats up to some of my friends?
  614.  
  615. [11:15] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He grins at Eren, batting his eyelashes innocently, before looking at Skye.* "It's... an inside joke."
  616.  
  617. [11:16] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Voice] You can't hit the broadside of a hara cat.
  618.  
  619. [11:16] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: Let's go for it. Lead on.
  620.  
  621. [11:16] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li wraps an arm around her waist.*
  622.  
  623. [11:16] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oki doki, we are inside! Unless the citadel is sooooo big it counts as outside but that is a little strange?"
  624.  
  625. [11:16] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He chuckled softly.* "Well, I'm flattered then. And... I don't know, I guess we've sort of gone beyond the initial 'if it happens, it happens' phase."
  626.  
  627. [11:16] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He chuckles.* "An inside joke is a joke between two people that other people won't find the humor in."
  628.  
  629. [11:17] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Seeing as it's happened several times, yes, I believe that conclusion is valid."
  630.  
  631. [11:17] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he nods, getting up and heading for the bar, smiling at all his friends gathered* Hey guys.. this here is Jeb.. he served on the adagio a while back.
  632.  
  633. [11:17] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Ohhh... Oki doki! *Turns and sees Sinez, detaching herself from Eren and snake and flies to hug him* "Hi Sinez!"
  634.  
  635. [11:17] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] I can hit anything just fine thank you very much.. *he cranks his arm back and lets loose on another victim*
  636.  
  637. [11:17] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Nods at them- Sup.
  638.  
  639. [11:18] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos turns and nods at the big man.* "Sup."
  640.  
  641. [11:18] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Jill leaned her head on Li's shoulder, sighing.* "I want you to be able to talk to your friends, though." *She didn't have to add 'the ones you have left.'*
  642.  
  643. [11:18] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *He hugs Skye* This here is Skye.. Sereya.. and Ankos.. *he ndos at them all when addressing*
  644.  
  645. [11:18] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: And I am...like we were doing earlier.
  646.  
  647. [11:18] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Soup!" *she adds as everyone else is saying it, maybe its an inside joke*
  648.  
  649. [11:18] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Smiles at Skye- You
  650.  
  651. [11:18] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren nodded to Jeb once.* "Hey. Think I remember you."
  652.  
  653. [11:18] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: You're small.
  654.  
  655. [11:18] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Voice] Oh? Could you hit Bore?
  656.  
  657. [11:19] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *A snake slithers from Skye's hand to Sin's shoulder, as she hugs him. It goes to poke his ear with its little nose.*
  658.  
  659. [11:19] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Looks to Eren- Yeah, your a familiar face.
  660.  
  661. [11:19] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he slightly pulls away* Uhm.. nice pet?
  662.  
  663. [11:19] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "So... I guess you could call it 'dating,' then?" *He looked at Serris.* "'Courtship' if you're more romantically inclined."
  664.  
  665. [11:19] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] I can hit that man in my sleep.. man's a damn tool.
  666.  
  667. [11:20] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Thanks... Skye, can you please take her off Sin? He seems not to like her."
  668.  
  669. [11:20] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oh yes! Unless you are big and so and such... Cristina, go to Ankso now *gently tries to pick her up nad place her on the counter*
  670.  
  671. [11:20] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Voice] Maybe you should have a contest then.
  672.  
  673. [11:20] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Thanks." *Christina lets herself be picked up by her new friend, then slithers back to her owner, wrapping herself up safely in his arm.* "Good girl."
  674.  
  675. [11:20] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris meets Kol's gaze.* "You don't mind me taking up this much of your free time, do you?"
  676.  
  677. [11:21] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he eyes Ankos, then the snake* So you finally got one?
  678.  
  679. [11:21] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he eyes Ankos, then the snake* So you finally got one?
  680.  
  681. [11:21] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "Well, without me getting them to slip away without even saying goodbye..."
  682.  
  683. [11:21] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *turns around at the voice, furrowing his brow* What's that suppose to mean?
  684.  
  685. [11:21] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Throw snowballs at each other until you get over it?
  686.  
  687. [11:21] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Yeah. Can't have asked for a better pet."
  688.  
  689. [11:22] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Jill, she is...not always the most social.
  690.  
  691. [11:22] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He gave him a smirk, then leaned in to touch his cheek and kissed the blueberry on the mouth.*
  692.  
  693. [11:22] [DOIC1] Jebidaih@dardez1: -Looks at his watch and taps Sinez on the shoulder- I've gotta fly, it was good catching up. -he looks at the other three- Nice meeting you lot.
  694.  
  695. [11:22] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *scoffs and kneels to make some more snowballs* Right.. That just sounds super productive..
  696.  
  697. [11:22] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods back at him.*
  698.  
  699. [11:23] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he nods at Jeb* Alright buddy. see ya aorund..
  700.  
  701. [11:23] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Yeah, good to see you didn't just vanish into the ether," *she nodded, raising her glass.*
  702.  
  703. [11:23] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "You can fly? That is so nice!!!"
  704.  
  705. [11:23] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Who knows, it might work.
  706.  
  707. [11:23] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris breaks the kiss after a moment, chuckling nervously, his face flushed violet.* "I, uh... never realized how nice this was."
  708.  
  709. [11:23] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] That man can't even tell a left handed bat from a right handed bat..
  710.  
  711. [11:24] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *grinning at Skye* I don't think he can fly..
  712.  
  713. [11:24] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "Then I really should've waited," *she sighed.*
  714.  
  715. [11:24] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Me nither! But maybe I thinked wrong?"
  716.  
  717. [11:24] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: It's fine, really...I will go see her on the Pilgrim.
  718.  
  719. [11:25] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] No...but you were friends and something happened. You're gonna have to find a way to work it out eventuallyt.
  720.  
  721. [11:25] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He kept his fingertips on Serris' face as his own broke into that stupid grin of his.* "Having someone being this affectionate toward you?"
  722.  
  723. [11:26] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Happy holiday thingy!"
  724.  
  725. [11:26] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She nodded and snuggled up against Li on the couch for additional comfort.* "Okay..."
  726.  
  727. [11:26] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *rolling his eyes* Look at where that got us...
  728.  
  729. [11:26] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Yes SKye.. Merry Christmas... Do you have any presents in mind for us?
  730.  
  731. [11:27] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He places his own hand over Kol's, leaning into the touch on his face.* "Mhmm."
  732.  
  733. [11:27] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] So you're just gonna give up?
  734.  
  735. [11:27] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Her very presence is a gift," *Eren chuckled.*
  736.  
  737. [11:27] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: You can say that again.. *he softly pats Skye's head and smiles at her*
  738.  
  739. [11:27] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Aww. That much is true."
  740.  
  741. [11:27] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Yes! But I studied federationalist... Human traditioness and such and things, And gifts is either given on the evening of the twenty forth or morning twenty fifth! OR sometimes the seventh next eart>
  742.  
  743. [11:27] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: > year! Euhmm... But not today?"
  744.  
  745. [11:28] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li runs a hand through her hair.*
  746.  
  747. [11:28] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Man's not gonna give her an ear at least..
  748.  
  749. [11:28] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Maybe after you get out your...guy aggression and frustration you can talk about it.
  750.  
  751. [11:28] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he nods* Still.. someone needs to do some planning though.. right?
  752.  
  753. [11:29] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "They do?"
  754.  
  755. [11:29] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He nodded at that.* "Well... in that case... Serris?" *He smirked.* "Would you care to be courted by me?"
  756.  
  757. [11:30] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] It'll just end in us throwing fists..
  758.  
  759. [11:30] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well, you have to get the gifts together beforehand so you're not running around trying to have them replicated last-minute."
  760.  
  761. [11:30] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *If that sensory link was mutual, Kol might feel his own heart skip a beat.* "Yes, yes I would."
  762.  
  763. [11:30] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oh! That is done, I hidden them!"
  764.  
  765. [11:31] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] As long as no one gets killed or seriously injured...it's better than what we were doing, which wasn't acknowledging each other's presence.
  766.  
  767. [11:31] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he laughs* Why would you hide them? we're not little children..
  768.  
  769. [11:31] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *A snowball flew at Damian's head from behind.*
  770.  
  771. [11:31] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oh... It said so in the pamplet thingy?"
  772.  
  773. [11:32] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *looks at her briefly,before getting nailed in the head causing him to plant face first into the snow*
  774.  
  775. [11:33] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: But skye... we're not children.. we all have a sense of patience here.. right guys..? *he eyes everyone else*
  776.  
  777. [11:33] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *especially Eren*
  778.  
  779. [11:33] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara rolls her eyes as she rolls him over.*
  780.  
  781. [11:33] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Then it's settled," *he grinned widely; Serris would've been able to get a good sense of his incredible excitement.*
  782.  
  783. [11:33] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Good things come to those who wait."
  784.  
  785. [11:34] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "...Of course we do," *Eren replied innocuously as she took another sip.*
  786.  
  787. [11:34] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "You mean you don't mind the intensity?"
  788.  
  789. [11:34] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Teir] *He gave a satisfied smirk as he headed back to his fort.*
  790.  
  791. [11:34] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *glances around for the perp before eyeing Kara* I just followed suit with you.. you're the one who ended things..
  792.  
  793. [11:35] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oki doki! They are hidden in my room, under the large blanket in the corner. Now you know where they are and then they are not super hidden!"
  794.  
  795. [11:35] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he raises a brow at that* Mhmmm. filling me with that confidence.. I love it.. Good job eren *Flatly*
  796.  
  797. [11:35] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Mind it..? Do you have any idea how much of a turn on it is to have someone going that hard on you?"
  798.  
  799. [11:35] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Yeah well I missed my friend, and I saw him arguing with his friend the other day.
  800.  
  801. [11:36] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "What did I say?" *she feigned innocence.*
  802.  
  803. [11:37] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Really? I'd have thought you'd be worried about hurting yourself." *He blinks.*
  804.  
  805. [11:37] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Eren is super confidency!"
  806.  
  807. [11:37] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *he sighs, watching the andorian get away before glancing back at Kara* We're not friends.. we're simply acquiantances..
  808.  
  809. [11:38] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Our Eren? Nah, you got something wrong, Skye."
  810.  
  811. [11:38] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "...In case you hadn't noticed, that's never really been a concern of mine."
  812.  
  813. [11:38] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] It didn't seem that way to me.
  814.  
  815. [11:38] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: WE all trust Eren.. riiiiiighht? *he eyes her playfully*
  816.  
  817. [11:38] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "... I suppose you're right."
  818.  
  819. [11:38] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Flies over and hugs herself to eren* "No, She is super confidency and trusty and nice"
  820.  
  821. [11:39] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "With Skye? No one else more trustworthy," she declared with a smirk at Sin.
  822.  
  823. [11:39] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Who wouldn't trust Eren?" *He pats Eren's head.* "She's almost as innocent and nice as Skye."
  824.  
  825. [11:39] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] We all gotta make compromises.. and besides.. he was the only one who constantly talked back to me..
  826.  
  827. [11:39] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She sighed then.* "Sorry."
  828.  
  829. [11:40] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: We're talking about the same Eren here... right? Just double checking.. *he smirks at them all*
  830.  
  831. [11:40] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He shook his head.* "Way I see it, so long as you can get me to sickbay it's all fair play. Living dangerously is... also a turn on."
  832.  
  833. [11:41] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "And yet, you snuggle yourself up to a recluse."
  834.  
  835. [11:41] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Obviously. Didn't you hear them? Innocent and nice as Skye."
  836.  
  837. [11:41] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I never meet Zacir. So I can not say super much about that Eren? But the Eren I know is super duper kind!"
  838.  
  839. [11:41] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] He doesn't seem like that bad a guy. And honestly...after what happened, Kobay is gonna need all of us to work /together/.
  840.  
  841. [11:42] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, yes, such a kind, giving heart."
  842.  
  843. [11:42] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li pecks her cheek.* Don't be.
  844.  
  845. [11:42] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Yes!!!"
  846.  
  847. [11:42] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos can't keep his smirk for showing anymore.* "Just what these holidays are all about."
  848.  
  849. [11:42] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Who says I can't live dangerously with a recluse?"
  850.  
  851. [11:43] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he chuckles* Very well.. I'm convinced now..
  852.  
  853. [11:43] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren shook her head.* "We don't deserve you, Skye." *She looked at Sin.* "Convinced of what?"
  854.  
  855. [11:43] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Why do you not deserve me? Why I someone that is deserved?" *Tilts her head*
  856.  
  857. [11:43] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *quirking a brow* Does this mean we're talking again? Or is this just a fluke conversation?
  858.  
  859. [11:44] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "It seems diametrically opposed to the idea of being adventurous." *He laughs.*
  860.  
  861. [11:44] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "True." *He move his free hand to pat Skye's head.*
  862.  
  863. [11:44] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Oh that that heart of yours is kind and giving.. *he smirks*
  864.  
  865. [11:45] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Mhm... dating the guy who wants to move supermassive black holes around the galaxy is -definitely- not a risky or adventurous move, clearly."
  866.  
  867. [11:46] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It is. Just look how much she cares for Skye."
  868.  
  869. [11:46] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] I said I missed my friend.
  870.  
  871. [11:46] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She cracked a slight smirk.* "Took you long enough."
  872.  
  873. [11:47] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Yes Ankos.. I see.. all a bit clear now actually.. *he grins*
  874.  
  875. [11:47] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Oh Sereya, I'm just messing with you..
  876.  
  877. [11:47] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Took you long enough, definitely. I can see why you're not a counselor."
  878.  
  879. [11:48] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *takes a breath and glances around the area before focusing back on her* I miss you too.
  880.  
  881. [11:48] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Also the guy who COULD move supermassive black holes around the galaxy, in theory." *He sighs.* "Think we can convince Captain T'Pang to let us take the Okavango out for a science experiment?"
  882.  
  883. [11:49] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Never viewed myself as one if I'm being honest..
  884.  
  885. [11:49] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Maker, I hope my next host isn't one. That would be the fastest career change in the history of joined trills."
  886.  
  887. [11:49] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara smiles.* Now will you please talk to him...or throw snowballs at him...or something?
  888.  
  889. [11:49] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "What is the current record?"
  890.  
  891. [11:50] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: NOt fast enough?
  892.  
  893. [11:50] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Hey... You are... sociable. And experienced enough with people. You might be good at it."
  894.  
  895. [11:50] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *sighs* Now you're just reaching..
  896.  
  897. [11:50] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Though your methods could use some work... seeing how you did the apple thing."
  898.  
  899. [11:50] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] What?
  900.  
  901. [11:50] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he quirks a brow* Sociable.. excellent choice of word there..
  902.  
  903. [11:50] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I love applies!"
  904.  
  905. [11:50] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *he didn't respond at first.* "I can't say I would know, since I've never actually met her."
  906.  
  907. [11:51] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "So do I now... thanks to Eren."
  908.  
  909. [11:51] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He quirks a brow at Sin.* "And what word would you use?"
  910.  
  911. [11:51] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Well, having one more person asking her might actually swing things in my favor for a change."
  912.  
  913. [11:52] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Nahh. He's probably getting shitfaced and visitin... busy doing stuffs.
  914.  
  915. [11:52] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Hey, I have no regrets about how I handled that. You needed tough love, kid, and that's what you got."
  916.  
  917. [11:52] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I like being a sciency scientist. it is fun!"
  918.  
  919. [11:52] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Hmm. Tough love is your specialty, huh?"
  920.  
  921. [11:53] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Any other word would've done.. *he then quirks a brow at Ankos*
  922.  
  923. [11:53] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I think she is good at gentle love!"
  924.  
  925. [11:53] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He nodded.* "Then I'll be right there with you when you do. Just... maybe don't get your hopes up too much, it's still a lot to ask."
  926.  
  927. [11:53] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren tried to hide her smirk.*
  928.  
  929. [11:53] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *So did Ankos.*
  930.  
  931. [11:54] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he rolls his eyes befor flagging the bartender* Just keep the egg nog coming.
  932.  
  933. [11:54] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Gentle love... only when someone proves themself tougher, right?"
  934.  
  935. [11:54] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "And a lot to gain, if it all works out."
  936.  
  937. [11:54] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Visiting?
  938.  
  939. [11:54] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "I feel like I should, though. It's like... every time we're out here on the Citadel it's just awkwardness and people glaring."
  940.  
  941. [11:55] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "You don't have to convince me of that, you did that the first day we met," *he grinned.*
  942.  
  943. [11:55] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *shaking his head lightly befoe passing a hand throuhg his hair* He's probably busy. visiting friends or something I dunno.
  944.  
  945. [11:56] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris rubs Kol's head affectionately.* "For better or worse."
  946.  
  947. [11:56] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She eyed Ankos.* "Depends on that someone."
  948.  
  949. [11:56] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He chuckled.* "We reciting vows now? I didn't think you were going to move -that- fast."
  950.  
  951. [11:57] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he quirks another brow, glancing down at Skye as if to gauge her before sipping his eggnog*
  952.  
  953. [11:57] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He hides his smirk once more.* "Of course... it's fun to fight back."
  954.  
  955. [11:57] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I'm just talking about your 'baby arm', remember?"
  956.  
  957. [11:57] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He smirks.*
  958.  
  959. [11:58] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I do not understand?"
  960.  
  961. [11:58] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren drained her cocktail and passed it over for another.* "That might displease the person you're fighting against, though. Could warrant punishment."
  962.  
  963. [11:58] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore was, in fact, visiting a friend from academy on the holodeck, but quickly excuses himself, feeling himself perfectly not in the mood for it, running off to wander the shops aimlessly.*
  964.  
  965. [11:58] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Here skye.. try some eggnogg.. *he offers her his glas*
  966.  
  967. [11:58] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "No risk, no rewards, right?"
  968.  
  969. [11:58] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Takes the glass of eggnogg and sips from it*
  970.  
  971. [11:59] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: How does it taste? good? bad?
  972.  
  973. [11:59] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] So?
  974.  
  975. [11:59] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos raises an eyebrow hearing the word "Eggnog" and orders himself some as well.*
  976.  
  977. [11:59] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Oh, yes... that most... 'apt' phrase Dr. Vant coined."
  978.  
  979. [11:59] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li whispers something to her.*
  980.  
  981. [11:59] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "It is nommie, Tastes like melted icecream!"
  982.  
  983. [12:00] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *shrugs* So what? What do you mean so? It means he's busy.
  984.  
  985. [12:00] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *A rampaging, massive Bajoran woman was stampeding through the Citadel nearby.*
  986.  
  987. [12:00] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Doesn't seem to be bothering you much nowadays."
  988.  
  989. [12:00] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he smiles down at his cute friend before flaggint eh bartender for another glassof eggnog*
  990.  
  991. [12:00] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Who are we fighting to upset?"
  992.  
  993. [12:00] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She gave Ankos a bemused look and took her new cocktail.*
  994.  
  995. [12:01] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] It doesn't sound that important. Why not invite him for a snowball fight?
  996.  
  997. [12:01] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore gulped. He had heard enough of the away mission to know that the bajoran woman in question would snap his neck in a second if she sees him. He's frozen in place, trying to figure an escape.*
  998.  
  999. [12:01] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: out*
  1000.  
  1001. [12:01] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he looks over at Skye at this* What skye?
  1002.  
  1003. [12:01] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "I guess you've been giving it a good workout... coach," *he teased.*
  1004.  
  1005. [12:02] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Nahh.. I'm having fun with the andorian here instead..
  1006.  
  1007. [12:02] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Um... let's call it another inside joke, Skye."
  1008.  
  1009. [12:02] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Eren said that we fight someone and Like that maybe it may displease them and stuffs in tough love and so?"
  1010.  
  1011. [12:02] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Jill gave Li a slight smile, then leaned her head on his shoulder again, nuzzling him affectionately and closing her eyes.*
  1012.  
  1013. [12:03] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I know a few stretches we haven't tried yet."
  1014.  
  1015. [12:04] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren eyed Skye, aware that she may have said too much. She cleared her throat.* "Oh, just... tactics, Skye. Tactics."
  1016.  
  1017. [12:04] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *Sin had his mouth opened to speak, but he shuts it and simply rubs at his forehead*
  1018.  
  1019. [12:04] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "A holodeck sim we tried." *He eyes Eren.*
  1020.  
  1021. [12:04] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *softly* Only that it wasn'tin a holodeck...
  1022.  
  1023. [12:04] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *eyes them both*
  1024.  
  1025. [12:05] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *That stupid grin reappeared as he reached to take Serris' hand.* "Care to demonstrate?"
  1026.  
  1027. [12:05] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *seems to notice that something is said may be a strict lie, looking at the gathering*
  1028.  
  1029. [12:05] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara sighs.*
  1030.  
  1031. [12:05] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren glanced at Sinez and just shrugged.*
  1032.  
  1033. [12:05] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris stands up, stretching his arms.* "Follow along closely."
  1034.  
  1035. [12:05] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he shrugs back as well*
  1036.  
  1037. [12:05] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos sips his eggnog, innocently.*
  1038.  
  1039. [12:06] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He rose from the chair, mirroring the blueberry.*
  1040.  
  1041. [12:06] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Looks at no one in special, rather at the eggnogg* "Please not lie to me"
  1042.  
  1043. [12:06] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] What kara? what?... I don't want to talk to him.. not today..
  1044.  
  1045. [12:06] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos feels a huge tinge of guilt in his heart, as if he's just kicked a puppy.*
  1046.  
  1047. [12:06] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren instantly cringed.*
  1048.  
  1049. [12:07] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris gestures for Kol to stay put as he takes off his sweater and tosses it onto the table nearby.*
  1050.  
  1051. [12:07] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: I'm in the dark as well Skye.. *he eyes them both now*
  1052.  
  1053. [12:07] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "It was not a hologame thingy"
  1054.  
  1055. [12:07] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "It's... personal, Skye," *she said.* "I'll tell you later?"
  1056.  
  1057. [12:08] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos looks like he's just been forced to nuke a city of puppies from orbit. What he said about Skye being the secret guilt trip weapon appears to be way too true.*
  1058.  
  1059. [12:08] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oki doki!" *Smiles happily to Eren*
  1060.  
  1061. [12:08] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren smiled back. Crisis averted, for now.*
  1062.  
  1063. [12:08] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Y-yeah. Sorry, Skye."
  1064.  
  1065. [12:08] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He grinned, staying where he was but reaching to pull off his own scarf and coat.*
  1066.  
  1067. [12:09] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Will try later?
  1068.  
  1069. [12:09] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Its okis!" *She smiles to Ankos too*
  1070.  
  1071. [12:09] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Yeah sure.. later.. not now..
  1072.  
  1073. [12:09] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he shrugs again before sipping his egg nog*
  1074.  
  1075. [12:09] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris removes his pants, standing in a pair of athletic shorts he'd layered underneath.*
  1076.  
  1077. [12:10] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Sure you're not going to be too cold in those?" *he smirked.*
  1078.  
  1079. [12:11] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *The air around them seemed... devoid of joy, suddenly.*
  1080.  
  1081. [12:11] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "What is hapening?"
  1082.  
  1083. [12:11] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "We could always share warmth if it gets too cold, but I have a feeling the heat is only going to intensify."
  1084.  
  1085. [12:12] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She frowned.* "I don't know..."
  1086.  
  1087. [12:12] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he sets his glass down and glances around* Now this isn't right..
  1088.  
  1089. [12:12] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Okay. See ya around, Dam.
  1090.  
  1091. [12:12] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos sipped his eggnog, but then shuddered. The snake sleeping on his hand woke up and he tried to calm it down.* "This... isn't good."
  1092.  
  1093. [12:12] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She was standing at the door to the lounge, her cold blue eyes dead set on Sinez.*
  1094.  
  1095. [12:12] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "Maybe we should lock the cabin door," *he grinned.*
  1096.  
  1097. [12:12] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Hugs herself to Eren even tighter*
  1098.  
  1099. [12:13] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *blinks* THat's it? Uhm.. nice talking.. Kara.. *he sighs, wathing her leave* again..
  1100.  
  1101. [12:13] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos shuddered, noticing the unknown woman. He suddenly feels an urge to jump into Sin's hands, scooby-doo style.*
  1102.  
  1103. [12:13] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he turns around, his eyes falling on the that pointy eared killjoy*
  1104.  
  1105. [12:13] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "The thing about being a gymnast is that you need to keep your flexibility at its peak for as long as you can maintain it."
  1106.  
  1107. [12:13] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He throws a hand around Skye, rubbing her shoulder gently, trying to calm her... and himself down.*
  1108.  
  1109. [12:14] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos whispers something to Eren.*
  1110.  
  1111. [12:14] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] *She charged right past Bore without a second look however, sparing him. For now.*
  1112.  
  1113. [12:14] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he blinks* Ahh shit.. I've been made.. *he smirks*
  1114.  
  1115. [12:14] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "That does make sense," *he nodded, staying where he was as requested.*
  1116.  
  1117. [12:15] [DOIC3] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore took a sigh of relief and continued his tour, happy to be alive for now.*
  1118.  
  1119. [12:15] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Eren] *She shrugged at Ankos.*
  1120.  
  1121. [12:15] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *While maintaining eye contact, Serris slowly drops to a completely horizontal split.*
  1122.  
  1123. [12:15] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he raises his voice at the vulcan* Well don't just stand there.. come on down! *he smiles*
  1124.  
  1125. [12:16] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos cringes at that.*
  1126.  
  1127. [12:16] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She rapidly strode to the bar until she was standing just a meter from Sinez.* "I have been looking for you."
  1128.  
  1129. [12:16] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara turns around at the arch.* What?
  1130.  
  1131. [12:16] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *waves to Varel from her safe position hugging Eren*
  1132.  
  1133. [12:17] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *His jaw DROPPED.*
  1134.  
  1135. [12:17] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he glances at ANkos briefly before locking eyes with the vulcan*
  1136.  
  1137. [12:17] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he glances at ANkos briefly before locking eyes with the vulcan*
  1138.  
  1139. [12:17] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: You know.. It never took Ri this long ot track me down.. *he grins*
  1140.  
  1141. [12:17] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris tilts his head curiously.* "Something wrong?"
  1142.  
  1143. [12:18] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos cringes, feeling something coming from Sin. He subconsciously throws a hand around Eren as well, as if trying to keep both her and Skye safe from an explosion.*
  1144.  
  1145. [12:18] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li gently rubs her back.*
  1146.  
  1147. [12:18] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Your unprovoked assault with a water balloon was highly inappropriate for a Starfleet officer. I have already filed a formal reprimand and will be updating it with the necessary information.
  1148.  
  1149. [12:19] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *groaning he stands up agan and makes his way for the arc* WHy do you always gotta sound so smart...
  1150.  
  1151. [12:19] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Another snowball pegged Damian in the back of the head.*
  1152.  
  1153. [12:19] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Because I'm smart enough not to get hit in the head by snowballs? *She giggles.*
  1154.  
  1155. [12:20] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *He grins* Awww.. did that make someone's day? Writing a report while everyone is enjoying their time off?
  1156.  
  1157. [12:20] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he glances at Ankos briefly yet again*
  1158.  
  1159. [12:20] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "...Nope. Total opposite of wrong, actually. I just... don't know that I can do that," he laughed.
  1160.  
  1161. [12:21] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "'Enjoyment' has nothing to do with this. Your actions were unnecessary, infantile, and warrant reprimand. I am only doing my duty."
  1162.  
  1163. [12:21] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris shrugs.* "Do what you can."
  1164.  
  1165. [12:21] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *stumbling to keep imself upright, he walks past Kara out into the hallway* Oh right.. you're so smart Kara..Where is he?
  1166.  
  1167. [12:22] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he grins, crosing his arms* You know.. the sme could be said about your own actions as well..
  1168.  
  1169. [12:22] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Computer, where is Ensign Bore Ristovski?
  1170.  
  1171. [12:23] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He drew in a breath, lowering himself to the ground slowly and trying to mimick Serris' motions. It was not a pretty sight, and he couldn't get far before he let out a yelp and fell over...\
  1172.  
  1173. [12:23] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: onto his ass.* "Ow, damn it!"
  1174.  
  1175. [12:23] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Computer] Bookshop, Deck 15.
  1176.  
  1177. [12:24] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *eyeing Kara* The man's a tool.. I'm telling you.. a bookshop? really?
  1178.  
  1179. [12:24] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "That is inaccurate. Please state your name, rank and assigned ship."
  1180.  
  1181. [12:24] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "What is going on?"
  1182.  
  1183. [12:24] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris lunges over and hovers over Kol.* "Hey, you okay?"
  1184.  
  1185. [12:25] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *His grip on Skye tightens just a little bit, not hurting her, but as if he's preparing to defend her if the woman tries to snatch her up.*
  1186.  
  1187. [12:25] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren immediately piped,* "He's Ensign Zenis."
  1188.  
  1189. [12:26] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Lieutenant Farel here can't take a simple prank meant to be fun..
  1190.  
  1191. [12:26] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Giving up our friends like that?! Weak." *He frowns at Eren,*
  1192.  
  1193. [12:26] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Looks confused at Eren and then Ankos*
  1194.  
  1195. [12:26] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He messed up his face for a moment as he looked up at Serris.* "I haven't tried to do that since gym class..."
  1196.  
  1197. [12:26] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] What?
  1198.  
  1199. [12:26] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he too shoots them both a confused look at first, before realizing their ploy* Thanks alot..
  1200.  
  1201. [12:27] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Well, it seems I have a lot of coaching to do."
  1202.  
  1203. [12:27] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *aiming his hand out as if to enunciate better* The man's at a -bookstore-
  1204.  
  1205. [12:27] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I did not consider it 'fun,' nor did the crewman who fell due to the water on the ground." *She typed at her PADD.* "Assigned ship?"
  1206.  
  1207. [12:28] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I'm sure the..." *She peered at Varel's pips.* "Lieutenant Junior Grade appreciates my honesty, doesn't she?" *She shot her a smirk.*
  1208.  
  1209. [12:29] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "He is not ensign Zenis!"
  1210.  
  1211. [12:29] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he quirks a brow* Yet it's alright for you to ruin peoples days on the daily?
  1212.  
  1213. [12:29] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She looked at Eren impassively.* "It is agree---" *She looked at Skye then.*
  1214.  
  1215. [12:29] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] And?
  1216.  
  1217. [12:29] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *glances down at Skye at this, giving her the look*
  1218.  
  1219. [12:30] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Can we not like try to like solve this like nice people and be friends? Please?"
  1220.  
  1221. [12:30] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] "...Yeah. Sorry. Never been the physical guy... aside from the part you already know about." *He gave him a grin.*
  1222.  
  1223. [12:30] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *grabbing her softly by her shoulders* A -bookstore-.
  1224.  
  1225. [12:30] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren gave Ankos a frown, but said nothing.*
  1226.  
  1227. [12:31] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] I still don't get it.
  1228.  
  1229. [12:31] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I am going to work you out until your bones are sore." *Serris growls.*
  1230.  
  1231. [12:31] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I do not know to what you refer. I would, however, wish for your honesty, as your fellow officer has requested."
  1232.  
  1233. [12:31] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "...Yeah, the little one is telling the truth. That is Ensign Kornal."
  1234.  
  1235. [12:31] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "No ensign Zenis!" *Shakes her head* "Nope nope"
  1236.  
  1237. [12:31] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She nodded appreciatively at Skye.*
  1238.  
  1239. [12:32] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *That grin only widened then.* "Is that a promise..?"
  1240.  
  1241. [12:32] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he waves off little skye* Look write me up, don't write me up.. It don't matter to me..all that matters is that I made some kids day that night..
  1242.  
  1243. [12:33] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Then please state your name, rank, and assigned ship," *she said coolly.*
  1244.  
  1245. [12:33] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris shuts him up with an animalistic, primal, passionate kiss that gradually fades into a black transition to elsewhere as things start to heat up past PG-13.*
  1246.  
  1247. [12:35] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Kol] *He reached to grip the back of the blueberry's head in his hands as he returned the kiss before the censors got a hold of where the show was heading and shut it down.*
  1248.  
  1249. [12:36] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Skye.. even when you're not helping it's cute.. *he lets a soft chuckle escape before locking eyes once again with the vulcan* Sinez Kodor, Lieutenant Commander..USS Adagio.
  1250.  
  1251. [12:37] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She filled out the information on her PADD.* "Your commanding officer will be informed. I would suggest refraining from such unprofessional behaviour in your future endeavours, -Commander.-
  1252.  
  1253. [12:37] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He looks at the two women, as if asking if one more try should be made.*
  1254.  
  1255. [12:37] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *And with that, she turned swiftly and strode out of the lounge.*
  1256.  
  1257. [12:37] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he shrugs* DOn't matter to me.. least we got the last laughs..
  1258.  
  1259. [12:37] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "But I tried to help!"
  1260.  
  1261. [12:37] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "...She seemed like a fun girl."
  1262.  
  1263. [12:37] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos grins.* "She's going to inform Captain Talia? Oh, cause that will work out -so well-."
  1264.  
  1265. [12:37] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he chuckles* No you didn't..
  1266.  
  1267. [12:37] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "The captain will probably laugh her ass off."
  1268.  
  1269. [12:37] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I tried!"
  1270.  
  1271. [12:38] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Skye did. She tried to act like that one guy in the group who doesn't wanna give up their friend. And Eren was the tattletale."
  1272.  
  1273. [12:38] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he gives Skye a look before eyeing the others* It's the holiday.. we're suppose to be having fun.
  1274.  
  1275. [12:38] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "What the hell did I do!"
  1276.  
  1277. [12:38] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *If FNN got any of that, it would certainly create buzz.*
  1278.  
  1279. [12:38] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Feeling better?
  1280.  
  1281. [12:38] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I mean, you were playing the tattletale. We pretended he was really Zemis and you gave him up."
  1282.  
  1283. [12:39] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Resumes trying to cuddle with Eren*
  1284.  
  1285. [12:39] [DOIC5] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Let's not mention Boyd's camera drone in the window.*
  1286.  
  1287. [12:39] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos shudders, looking at Sin.* "Why didn't you tell me you were going to be pranking -her?- I definitely would have helped."
  1288.  
  1289. [12:39] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "She deserves at least 5 more water balloons."
  1290.  
  1291. [12:39] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: I could show you the heartmoving letter I received from the petty officer..
  1292.  
  1293. [12:40] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Aw. That's nice."
  1294.  
  1295. [12:40] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: She deserves more than 5 if I'm being honest.
  1296.  
  1297. [12:40] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "...She seems like the repressed type..." *Eren eyed Varel as she vanished.*
  1298.  
  1299. [12:40] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I think she needs a friend"
  1300.  
  1301. [12:40] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Maybe she just needs to get laid."
  1302.  
  1303. [12:40] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos snickers at Eren.* "Yeah, no. Not taking one for the team on that one."
  1304.  
  1305. [12:40] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Eren.. you've done that enough.. give it arest..
  1306.  
  1307. [12:41] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I didn't say -I- was going to be the offering!"
  1308.  
  1309. [12:41] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *eyes Ankos*
  1310.  
  1311. [12:41] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Well, it ain't gonna be me!"
  1312.  
  1313. [12:41] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *sighs* Fine.. let's go to this stupid bookstore..
  1314.  
  1315. [12:41] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "To be her friend?"
  1316.  
  1317. [12:41] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "I guess... Did you want anything from the bar?"
  1318.  
  1319. [12:42] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Um. Not really. To... sleep with her."
  1320.  
  1321. [12:42] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he rolls his eyes then reaches for his eggnog on the counter* Mhmm.. sure.. because we all got what she needs.. a friend.
  1322.  
  1323. [12:42] [DOIC2] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Sure.
  1324.  
  1325. [12:42] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I love sleeping with people, Sleeping alone is not super duper nice"
  1326.  
  1327. [12:42] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara nods and starts heading for a turbolift.*
  1328.  
  1329. [12:43] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She smiled softly and got to her feet to lead Li over to the counter.*
  1330.  
  1331. [12:43] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Phrasing, Skye..."
  1332.  
  1333. [12:44] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oh.... Sorry!"
  1334.  
  1335. [12:44] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "You and me both, Skye..."
  1336.  
  1337. [12:44] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren rolled her eyes.*
  1338.  
  1339. [12:44] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos smirks ever-so-slightly, looking at Eren.*
  1340.  
  1341. [12:44] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She glanced at the Adagio group and then back at Li.* "So what do you want?"
  1342.  
  1343. [12:45] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Surprise me.
  1344.  
  1345. [12:45] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She gave him a playful look.* "I mean, food, drink, both?"
  1346.  
  1347. [12:45] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *follows her into the lift* You know.. I gotta admit something.. it was you giving me that stale face all the time that got me to shut up and pretend like you weren't there..
  1348.  
  1349. [12:46] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Both.
  1350.  
  1351. [12:47] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: You know what Ankos.. Maybe your pet snake there should make another new friend. *he smirks*
  1352.  
  1353. [12:47] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Well yeah,,,I expected that.
  1354.  
  1355. [12:47] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Oh? Who?"
  1356.  
  1357. [12:47] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She nodded and picked up the menu, looking through it.*
  1358.  
  1359. [12:47] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He grins, seeing where Sin is going.*
  1360.  
  1361. [12:48] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: I dunno man.. I think there's a lot of lonely vulcans out there needing a friend right about now.
  1362.  
  1363. [12:48] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "You can't be serious. You really think the Counselor could melt that ice queen?"
  1364.  
  1365. [12:48] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] It was scary actually..
  1366.  
  1367. [12:49] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Well... I -do- love a challenge."
  1368.  
  1369. [12:49] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he eyes bounce off them both* Mhmm.. that bit was made clear..
  1370.  
  1371. [12:50] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Scary?
  1372.  
  1373. [12:50] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Should I go for it?"
  1374.  
  1375. [12:50] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "Woah... they actually have turducken?"
  1376.  
  1377. [12:50] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Go for it!" *Eren called to the human at the end of the bar.*
  1378.  
  1379. [12:50] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She gave Eren an odd look, then glanced back down.*
  1380.  
  1381. [12:51] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Yeah man.. go for it! I's the eve of christmas eve! I can't think of a better present than that...
  1382.  
  1383. [12:51] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Waves to Jill*
  1384.  
  1385. [12:51] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos sees it's not meant for him.* "Huh. Think she'd like me wrapped up in a pink bow?"
  1386.  
  1387. [12:51] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She tilted her head at Skye.*
  1388.  
  1389. [12:52] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He waves the bartender over.* "A large whiskey."
  1390.  
  1391. [12:52] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] You really gotta look in a relection sometime.. your nose definitely gained another ridge or two from all that glaring..
  1392.  
  1393. [12:52] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren looked back at Ankos.* "You're really gonna do it."
  1394.  
  1395. [12:52] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Jezz.
  1396.  
  1397. [12:52] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he quirks a brow* Just.. go as yourself.. no neeed to waste time wrapping yourself up..
  1398.  
  1399. [12:53] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "If I die, let it be known I died for the sake of every starfleet member she harrassed."
  1400.  
  1401. [12:53] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *smiles to Jill and then resumes her idle cuddeling with Eren, seeming sleepy*
  1402.  
  1403. [12:53] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: THat's the way to go.. *he nods*
  1404.  
  1405. [12:53] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Pretty sure Vulcans and Klingons are two very different species," *she chuckled, stroking Skye's hair.*
  1406.  
  1407. [12:54] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos grabs the whiskey. He downs it all in one go.* "Eren, this one kills with a glare..."
  1408.  
  1409. [12:54] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *slowly nods, grinning to himself as hte turbolift arrives* Alright then.. I guess it's this way.. *he heads off to the bookstore*
  1410.  
  1411. [12:54] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he grins* Yet here I survived.
  1412.  
  1413. [12:55] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He looks at Christina, gently patting her head with his thumb.* "So, little one, want to help dad make starfleet a bit of a better place? Even vulcans like cute things."
  1414.  
  1415. [12:55] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She set the menu down.* "Alright, if that blonde lady from the beach program suggested it, may as well try it. Two turducken dinners, with a bottle of white wine and two glasses," *she...
  1416.  
  1417. [12:55] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: ordered from the bartender.*
  1418.  
  1419. [12:55] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara follows him at a health distance.*
  1420.  
  1421. [12:55] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Good luck, kid..." *she eyed Ankos and Chrissstina.*
  1422.  
  1423. [12:55] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Good luck Ankos!!!"
  1424.  
  1425. [12:56] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He pats Skye's head, then nods at the other two, feeling more intimidated than when he first crossed the doors of starfleet academy. He plasters his confident smirk on, though.* "See ya."
  1426.  
  1427. [12:57] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he waits for him to get out of earshot* He's going to be afraid of vulcans now..
  1428.  
  1429. [12:57] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos walks out, hoping the vulcan hasn't wandered far.*
  1430.  
  1431. [12:57] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Not if he does it right," *Eren snickered.*
  1432.  
  1433. [12:57] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] KAra you sure about this? Why you that far back? *he glances back at her briefly before resuming his walk to the bookstore, eventually stopping rightin front*
  1434.  
  1435. [12:58] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *As her order arrived, Jill turned to Li.* "Here, or find somewhere secluded again..?"
  1436.  
  1437. [12:58] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore is just walking out, a book in hand. He notices Damian and takes a deep breath.*
  1438.  
  1439. [12:58] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he gives her a look* You really think he's going to successfully acomplish that?
  1440.  
  1441. [12:58] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *kindly returns the stare*
  1442.  
  1443. [12:58] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: What do you want?
  1444.  
  1445. [12:59] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Of course not, but we're at that time of year when miracles happen..."
  1446.  
  1447. [12:59] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos looks around, his game plan trying to form in his mind, as he looks for the Vulcan.*
  1448.  
  1449. [12:59] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Surprisingly calmly, Bore greets him.* "Hello."
  1450.  
  1451. [12:59] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: Hm.. Maybe SKye should've joined him...
  1452.  
  1453. [12:59] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Hm.. Maybe SKye should've joined him...
  1454.  
  1455. [1:00] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "I am sleepy"
  1456.  
  1457. [1:00] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *gives him an upward nod* Sup...
  1458.  
  1459. [1:00] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: You going to take her to bed eren?
  1460.  
  1461. [1:00] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos heads towards Eirene. He asks her about Varel, saying how long ago she was in the lounge and giving her a physical description of he woman.*
  1462.  
  1463. [1:00] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "I mean... here's okay. I don't think there's anyone else from the Pilgrim here to stare at us..."
  1464.  
  1465. [1:00] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Just... walking the shops. Have some gifts I wanna send home."
  1466.  
  1467. [1:00] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li smiles and heads to a table.*
  1468.  
  1469. [1:01] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he sighs* I meant.. tuck her in at night? In her own bed..
  1470.  
  1471. [1:01] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren looked at Skye.* "Did you want me to walk you to your quarters, Skye?"
  1472.  
  1473. [1:01] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *nods slowly* Cool.. cool..
  1474.  
  1475. [1:01] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "It is okis, If you wishes to be here and do thingys I can find my place and soo"
  1476.  
  1477. [1:02] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Ankos was informed that Lieutenant Varel was currently in one of the less populated parts of the Citadel.*
  1478.  
  1479. [1:02] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Um... yeah. See ya back on the ship, I guess?"
  1480.  
  1481. [1:03] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos frowns, a determination filling his face. He heads towards the area, looking for the vulcan once more.*
  1482.  
  1483. [1:03] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *nods one final time before turning around to leave* Yeah..see ya..
  1484.  
  1485. [1:03] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren nodded.* "I wanted to stay up a little longer, yeah. But I hope you sleep well, Skye."
  1486.  
  1487. [1:03] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She brought the tray over, setting it down on the table and taking the seat next to Li.*
  1488.  
  1489. [1:03] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: "Oki doki, See you tomorrow!" *She hugs Eren affectionately before letting go*
  1490.  
  1491. [1:04] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *This time she was very easily spotted, standing by one of the Citadel's massive windows as she tapped at her PADD. The ghostly image of her pale face could be seen reflected as Ankos approached.*
  1492.  
  1493. [1:04] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he smiles at SKye* Sleep well little one..
  1494.  
  1495. [1:04] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren returned the embrace.* "Good night, Skye!"
  1496.  
  1497. [1:05] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos wonders for a bit, before going out of his way to pick up a paper cup of hot chocolate out of a replicator. He then approaches her.* "Excuse me, could I speak to you for a moment?"
  1498.  
  1499. [1:05] [DOIC1] Skye@Illuice: *Warmly tries to hug Sinez too before flying off to bed*
  1500.  
  1501. [1:05] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he gives her abig warm hug in return*
  1502.  
  1503. [1:06] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She glanced over her shoulder impassively at the betazoid before she turned to face him fully.* "Was there something further that you required?"
  1504.  
  1505. [1:06] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he waits for her to be out of earshot* Not like she threw me under the ship there...
  1506.  
  1507. [1:07] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren peered at her drink for a moment as she and Sin were left alone. She cracked a slight smirk.* "She's too sweet for a bunch of bastards like us."
  1508.  
  1509. [1:08] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he leans with his back aainst the counter* Yeah.. I'm not even mad..
  1510.  
  1511. [1:08] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She passed him his plate, then uncorked the bottle and began pouring glasses for them.*
  1512.  
  1513. [1:08] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos silently panics, though it doesn't reflect on his face. How was he supposed to approach -that-? However, he composes himself.* "I wish to apologize for me lying to protect Kodor... and to >
  1514.  
  1515. [1:08] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *glances back at him with a contemplative look on his face before walking back away*
  1516.  
  1517. [1:08] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "It's hard to be upset with anything she does," *Eren agreed.*
  1518.  
  1519. [1:08] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Thanks.
  1520.  
  1521. [1:09] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he eyes her, almost a bit playfully* Really though.. ANkos?
  1522.  
  1523. [1:09] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Ask you... how would you advise someone as... emotional as a betazoid to act fully proffessional? I wish to make a career, and... if I act like I do earlier, it wouldn't exactly work out."
  1524.  
  1525. [1:10] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos sits a respectful distance away from her, closing his eyes for a moment and hoping his plan to make her pick the conversation up works.*
  1526.  
  1527. [1:10] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren groaned.* "Oh, don't remind me... and it was the -day- that apple thing happened, too. You have no idea how bad the regret pangs were getting."
  1528.  
  1529. [1:11] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he tilts his head back slightly and laughs* I knew it.. I totally knew it.. *he glances back at her* I can't imagine...
  1530.  
  1531. [1:12] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Varel regarded him for a moment.* "I am not qualified to give recommendations. However, intensive meditation and a logical ordering to one's thoughts and actions would have undoubted benefit on...
  1532.  
  1533. [1:12] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] FUck it.. *he turns back around* Kara here says we should make up and be friends again.
  1534.  
  1535. [1:13] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: any individual, Vulcan or otherwise. I would recommend studying the teachings of Surak, and other vulcan philosophers who followed him."
  1536.  
  1537. [1:14] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren waved a hand.* "Far as I'm concerned, I was just getting it out of the way."
  1538.  
  1539. [1:14] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore just now notices Kara and nods at her.* "What you said -did- hurt me... You know I rely... relied on the Chief as much as you did. It was a tense situation, but... still. I don't think you >
  1540.  
  1541. [1:14] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She smiled at Li and leaned over to kiss his cheek.*
  1542.  
  1543. [1:14] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Should have acted like that."
  1544.  
  1545. [1:15] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I thought vulcans were taught those from birth... are they available to outsiders?"
  1546.  
  1547. [1:15] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Yes," *she said simply.*
  1548.  
  1549. [1:16] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li smiles and turns into the kiss.*
  1550.  
  1551. [1:16] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Dude.. you just pissed me off.. It sounded like you weren't even going to give her a chance to redeem herself, you acted kinda stupid too with your way out there theories..
  1552.  
  1553. [1:17] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos curses to himself in his mind, this definitely proving to be too much of a challenge.* "It is... a strange request. But if your time permits it, would you... show me some of the basics? Here, >
  1554.  
  1555. [1:17] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he reaches over and pats her shoulder* Way to swallow that tough pill.. I respect that..
  1556.  
  1557. [1:17] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Where it's quieter, or on a holodeck, where we could be truly at peace."
  1558.  
  1559. [1:17] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She grinned into the kiss, wrapping her arms around Li.*
  1560.  
  1561. [1:18] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore looks offended at that.* "Crazy? Man, sleeper agents, brainwashing, all of those are a thing! I'm not saying she did it of her own accord, but still... Don't you care about the safety of the >
  1562.  
  1563. [1:18] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I am not a qualified instructor in these methods. I would recommend consulting the Starfleet directory for a qualified individual who can assist you. I believe there are also holodeck...
  1564.  
  1565. [1:18] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Ship? The team?"
  1566.  
  1567. [1:19] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: programs that have been written to simulate such instruction."
  1568.  
  1569. [1:19] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li does the same, not really caring that they were in public any longer.*
  1570.  
  1571. [1:19] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren sighed then, looking down at her drink again.* "...I'm sorry, by the way," *she said after a moment.*
  1572.  
  1573. [1:20] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] You make it sound like she doesn't give a damn about us..
  1574.  
  1575. [1:20] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I doubt I could find a qualified individual in the time left on the Citadel... and holoprograms... it is different for a betazoid. We pick up everything, and holodecks... it's like having a rock >
  1576.  
  1577. [1:20] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She pressed firmly into the kiss as her hands roved up and down his neck and back, their meal forgotten.*
  1578.  
  1579. [1:21] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] And you've been here how long? Come on dude... think.. she's not just going to throw lives away, plus hers.. to kill terrans.
  1580.  
  1581. [1:21] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "To communicate with you... Plus, I am a counselor and this would be a good way to understand the... mentality of the vulcans on my ship. It would be very helpful of you."
  1582.  
  1583. [1:21] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li breaks the kiss briefly.* Not...hungry anymore?
  1584.  
  1585. [1:21] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She looked down at her PADD, tapping away rapidly.*
  1586.  
  1587. [1:21] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he blinks, caught offguard by a certain scene before glancing back at Eren* Hmmm?
  1588.  
  1589. [1:22] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "There are multiple individuals of Vulcan descent on the Adagio who could render assistance in this matter."
  1590.  
  1591. [1:22] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The little snake would cautiously approach her, looking up at her. Ankos would lean in to pick it up and play with it gently, hoping the caring pet owner thing works on vulcans... at least it seemed>
  1592.  
  1593. [1:22] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren was blissfully unaware of the two making out behind her.* "...A few weeks ago. When you tried reaching out and I made an ass out of myself." *She drew in a breath and released it.* "I'm...
  1594.  
  1595. [1:23] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: sorry."
  1596.  
  1597. [1:23] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *To work on Sevuk with Dawson.* "Yes, but I am their counselor. It's... not entirely professionally appropriate for the counselor to receive counseling."
  1598.  
  1599. [1:23] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She felt her cheeks getting red now.* "Um... well... maybe I got a little distracted..."
  1600.  
  1601. [1:24] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I... I don't know. Who knows? Anyone could snap at any moment."
  1602.  
  1603. [1:24] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li grins.* We don't have to stop.
  1604.  
  1605. [1:25] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *Her eyes flickered at the reptile impassively as ever, then back up at Ankos.* "I am unclear as to what makes you believe that I am the best instructor. I believe you are acting off of...
  1606.  
  1607. [1:25] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: misguided stereotypes."
  1608.  
  1609. [1:25] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he sighs focusing his attention squarely on her and not that awkward scene just meters behind her* WE've all made ourselves look like an ass.. It's all good..
  1610.  
  1611. [1:26] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Bartender] Would either of you like a drink?
  1612.  
  1613. [1:26] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He shakes his head.* "I am a counselor. Misguided stereotypes are something I deal away with daily."
  1614.  
  1615. [1:26] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Not Nalie dude.. no way.. you don't know her.. I mean shit.. you saw Daniels.. she was heartbroken..
  1616.  
  1617. [1:26] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She nodded at Sin.* "Good, then." *She looked at the bartender.* "New peppermint cocktail, if you would."
  1618.  
  1619. [1:26] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he squints at the bartender, he looked vaguely familiar*
  1620.  
  1621. [1:27] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *The man nods and turns back to prepare it for her.*
  1622.  
  1623. [1:27] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "That does not appear to be the case."
  1624.  
  1625. [1:27] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Just some more eggnog for me please..
  1626.  
  1627. [1:27] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "She was... but she is close to Nalie. Feelings cloud your judgement, Vulcans are right on that."
  1628.  
  1629. [1:28] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She turned even redder then.* "Maybe... get this to go?" *she smiled bashfully.*
  1630.  
  1631. [1:28] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li laughs.*
  1632.  
  1633. [1:28] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Bartender] Here you go. *Sereya is given a cocktail as he turns back behind to prepare the eggnog.*
  1634.  
  1635. [1:28] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I do not stereotype anyone, miss... um. I didn't pick up your name."
  1636.  
  1637. [1:29] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Thanks, kid," *she nodded at the bartender as she picked up her drink.*
  1638.  
  1639. [1:30] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I am Lieutenant Varel, Chief Tactical Officer and acting Chief of Security for the U.S.S. Sentinel."
  1640.  
  1641. [1:30] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Look my dude.. that's a bunch of bullshit.. even though what she did was wrong.. I'm still going to give her a chance at redemption..
  1642.  
  1643. [1:30] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he eyes her* So that's just it.. only the apology?
  1644.  
  1645. [1:30] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Sinez is provided a glass of eggnog.*
  1646.  
  1647. [1:30] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li looks to Jill.* If you want.
  1648.  
  1649. [1:31] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She looked back at Sin.* "What do you want me to say? That I was so fucked up off my own pride and embarassment that I took weeks to apologise and that was shitty of me? Because I'll admit that."
  1650.  
  1651. [1:32] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "My pleasure, counselor Ankos Itri of the Adagio... I admire what the sentinel did, and it would be an honour for me to be taught by someone who took part in such a momentous effort."
  1652.  
  1653. [1:32] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She quirked a brow.* "I do not know how to more succinctly communicate that I am not qualified to instruct in this manner."
  1654.  
  1655. [1:33] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I'm not saying I wouldn't. But... what she did... I doubt she'll have 100% of my trust again. She should have at least told us, man! We're her team!"
  1656.  
  1657. [1:33] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: No that night.. it just felt like there was something else..I dunno, maybe it was nothing..
  1658.  
  1659. [1:34] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She sucked on her lower lip for a moment, looking at Li.* "...Okay."
  1660.  
  1661. [1:34] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] And if she were to tell us.. you'd think we'd simply allow her to proceed?
  1662.  
  1663. [1:34] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li walks over to the bar to get the to go stuff.*
  1664.  
  1665. [1:35] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *To Li at the bar* FInally getting a room huh?
  1666.  
  1667. [1:35] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li doesn't reply as he hastily grabs the stuff and heads back to the table.*
  1668.  
  1669. [1:35] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren shook her head, then glanced at Li.* "Took you long enough, the beach party was what, three months ago?"
  1670.  
  1671. [1:35] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "And I would rather ask somebody from outside the ship. Because, as I told you, the other crewmates on the adagio, not the vulcans, might lose their trust in me."
  1672.  
  1673. [1:35] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he chuckles at the reaction*
  1674.  
  1675. [1:37] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "There are many other vulcans on the Citadel that can be of assistance."
  1676.  
  1677. [1:37] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She turned BRIGHT red when she heard Sinez and Eren.*
  1678.  
  1679. [1:38] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: We are terrible trill beings.. she's beet read..
  1680.  
  1681. [1:38] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li grabs Jill's hand and exits the lounge.*
  1682.  
  1683. [1:39] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Yes... but as I said, I find you trustworthy. Us betazoids have a heard for that." *He taps the side of his head with a finger.*
  1684.  
  1685. [1:39] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She smirked.* "Three months ago we were at this very bar and he was swearing that he had a wife. I fucking knew he was screwing that human, though. Practically screaming it every time they...
  1686.  
  1687. [1:39] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: looked at each other."
  1688.  
  1689. [1:39] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She squeezed Li's hand tightly as they walked off.*
  1690.  
  1691. [1:40] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Sorry...
  1692.  
  1693. [1:40] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: Wait what? *he quirks a brow* That wasn't his wife?
  1694.  
  1695. [1:40] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Maybe she would have trusted her enough to talk her out of it, if she knew what she did was wrong."
  1696.  
  1697. [1:40] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Wait what? *he quirks a brow* That wasn't his wife?
  1698.  
  1699. [1:41] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She stared at him for a moment, then simply said,* "I am not qualified and I do not intend to potentially mishandle your instruction in this manner."
  1700.  
  1701. [1:42] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Nahh... I talked to his wife later that day. Lovely Orion woman. Wonder if she knows?"
  1702.  
  1703. [1:42] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "It's okay... we probably should've realised someone was going to be watching..."
  1704.  
  1705. [1:43] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods and leads her off to the more secluded area they like to frequent.*
  1706.  
  1707. [1:44] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *he facepalms* Alright dude.. that's a hard maybe.. I'll say this.. if you aren't going to gradually give Nalie the confidence she deserves.. don't bother posting up next to me anymore in eng
  1708.  
  1709. [1:44] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: engineering..
  1710.  
  1711. [1:44] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos makes a mental note that this is the last time he listens to Sinez. He also decides to switch tactics.* "Are you not cold in here?"
  1712.  
  1713. [1:44] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: He's married to an Orion? *he furrows his brow*
  1714.  
  1715. [1:44] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] You two are hopeless sometimes, I swear to the Prophets.
  1716.  
  1717. [1:44] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She went over by one of the large windows with Li, squeezing his hand briefly.*
  1718.  
  1719. [1:45] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] You're not helping!
  1720.  
  1721. [1:45] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He looks at Kara, about to agree, but then he hears the last part.* "Whoa, whoa, whoa. Are you trying to tell me where I can and can't show up?"
  1722.  
  1723. [1:45] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I have become acclimated to the current temperature."
  1724.  
  1725. [1:46] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] We are a team...and right now Kobay is one in charge. You both saw what shes went through...I swear to Bajor if she has to deal with you two bickering in engineering I will smack it out of you
  1726.  
  1727. [1:46] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Yeah. What was her name... Aria? I think it was Aria. We discussed some experimental weapon they were developing on the Pilgrim and had a few drinks together."
  1728.  
  1729. [1:46] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Now get it out of your system.
  1730.  
  1731. [1:46] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Unlike some, I will control myself on the workplace."
  1732.  
  1733. [1:47] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Was that seriouslya shot at me?
  1734.  
  1735. [1:47] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Really? Well, I saw you sitting here all alone, and I thought you might be cold." *He offers her the still hot cup of hot chocolate.*
  1736.  
  1737. [1:47] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, you can bet it was."
  1738.  
  1739. [1:47] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li turns to kiss her.*
  1740.  
  1741. [1:47] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he flexes his jawline before shaking his head* This fleet.. I swear..
  1742.  
  1743. [1:48] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *steps closer to him* Really? Here I am, trying to extend my arm out to you and you just spit at it?
  1744.  
  1745. [1:48] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Your assessment was inaccurate." *She stared at the cup.* "I do not require hydration or warmth. Was there something else you required?"
  1746.  
  1747. [1:49] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Jill closed her eyes and returned the kiss for a long moment.*
  1748.  
  1749. [1:49] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "What? I try to be civil and talk it out and you tell me not to show up to work?!"
  1750.  
  1751. [1:49] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara facepalms.*
  1752.  
  1753. [1:50] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] DUmbass.. I never said not to show up to work! Just not near me!
  1754.  
  1755. [1:50] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Eh, he's a kid. Kids shouldn't be getting married anyway. This's what inevitably happens."
  1756.  
  1757. [1:50] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Why would I want to be around you, if you're going to act like such a bitch?"
  1758.  
  1759. [1:51] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara walks up and slaps each of them.*
  1760.  
  1761. [1:51] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *his eyes widen at that* What? Seriously Kara?
  1762.  
  1763. [1:51] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *A passing charging rhinoceros silently approved as she barreled onward.*
  1764.  
  1765. [1:51] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore doesn't seem to give a shit, even smirking slightly.* "Can't take a slap, snow?"
  1766.  
  1767. [1:52] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he sighs* It's a whole different outlook regarind marriage once you ge into your thirties..
  1768.  
  1769. [1:52] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Well. In all honesty, it isn't just about the professionalism and the meditation. I heard a lot of unpleasant things being said about you, and I just wanted you not to be alone like this during the >
  1770.  
  1771. [1:52] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] I can taka slap.. it's being called a bitch by one..
  1772.  
  1773. [1:53] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren raised a brow at Sinez.* "Maybe if you didn't marry in your twenties, sure."
  1774.  
  1775. [1:53] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren raised a brow at Sinez.* "Maybe if you didn't marry in your twenties, sure."
  1776.  
  1777. [1:53] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Holidays. Seems a bit mean." *Ankos is imagining cutting Sin open with a chainsaw, smiling slightly.*
  1778.  
  1779. [1:54] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Oh that was never the plan.. twenty nine maybe the earliest..
  1780.  
  1781. [1:54] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, that's funny, coming from someone who stayed in his room while me, Kara, the Chief and Daniels walked the surface of the ship at impulse speed!"
  1782.  
  1783. [1:54] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara huffs angrily.* MEN!
  1784.  
  1785. [1:55] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: Warp speed*
  1786.  
  1787. [1:56] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara walks off, very pissed off.*
  1788.  
  1789. [1:57] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "That is unnecessary. Loneliness would be an emotional reaction. You need not concern yourself."
  1790.  
  1791. [1:57] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *Glaring at Bore* Really? You're going with the low blow? Fucking cheapskate.. *wth that he turns to leave*
  1792.  
  1793. [1:58] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Sounds like a more reasonable age than twenty three," *she nodded, eyeing Sin then.* "Been thinking about that?"
  1794.  
  1795. [1:59] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos says nothing, scooting over just a tiny bit closer, still at a respectful distance.* "I do not concern myself. It just... makes me feel better not to leave someone alone."
  1796.  
  1797. [1:59] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore would grab Dame's shoulder to turn him around and punch him in the face.*
  1798.  
  1799. [1:59] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: There's two things well.. three that would scare the shit out of me.. mimes.. marriage...and the rank of captain next to my name..
  1800.  
  1801. [2:00] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: But in reality.. I have no clue..
  1802.  
  1803. [2:00] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "It is regrettable then that you will not find that satisfaction. I do not require the services of a Counselor."
  1804.  
  1805. [2:01] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Do you see an uniform on me? I'm just here as a person."
  1806.  
  1807. [2:01] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren shrugged and downed the rest of her drink.* "No one ever does," *she shrugged and slid the glass over for a refill.*
  1808.  
  1809. [2:01] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The little snake would boop her with her snout again, as if wanting affection.*
  1810.  
  1811. [2:03] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She regarded the creature expressionlessly, then looked back at Ankos. She didn't say a word.*
  1812.  
  1813. [2:03] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *Damian's head leads the fall down to the ground, blinking away the intial shock he hurls himself forward toward Bore as he yells some explicit words his way*
  1814.  
  1815. [2:04] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos sets down the cup next to her, wordlessly. He doesn't leave, though.*
  1816.  
  1817. [2:04] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She then looked down at her PADD again and resumed her work.*
  1818.  
  1819. [2:04] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Not even the kind and caring Sereya Eren knows? *he grins*
  1820.  
  1821. [2:06] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore gets knocked down, an elbow to his face breaking his nose. He would try to punch his attaker off of himself or at least turn things around so he's on top. Two klingons walk by, and one of them >
  1822.  
  1823. [2:06] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Shouts out* "BRAWL" *Punching the other klingon.*
  1824.  
  1825. [2:06] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Sereya is provided a refill.*
  1826.  
  1827. [2:07] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren rolled her eyes, smirking back at Sin.* "I know, shocking."
  1828.  
  1829. [2:07] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Does work not get tiring? Everyone needs to rest during the holidays."
  1830.  
  1831. [2:07] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "It does not."
  1832.  
  1833. [2:07] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li smiles.* This is much better.
  1834.  
  1835. [2:08] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos just sits there, his posture relaxing. He finds the quiet the vulcan gives actually quite relaxing and comfortable, despite him seemingly failing what Sin challenged him to do.*
  1836.  
  1837. [2:08] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *Damian piledrives him into the ground hard, using everything he has to maintain on top*
  1838.  
  1839. [2:08] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Jill draped her arms around Li as she leaned against the window, smiling at him softly.* "I agree completely..."
  1840.  
  1841. [2:09] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She paid Ankos no further attention as she typed.*
  1842.  
  1843. [2:09] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: It'll get better.
  1844.  
  1845. [2:10] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore seems to get the wind knocked out of him... however, one of the brawling klingons seems to spear the other, the mass of bodies coming from Dame's side, headed straight for him.*
  1846.  
  1847. [2:10] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Jill nodded at that.* "People have short attention spans... sooner or later something else'll take their attention away..."
  1848.  
  1849. [2:10] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he grins lightly as he takes a gulp of his eggnog*
  1850.  
  1851. [2:10] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: I know someone who has mine.
  1852.  
  1853. [2:11] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos decides to try a small, bluff, hoping to see if it will affect what he feels from Varel in any way.* "Do you want me to leave?"
  1854.  
  1855. [2:11] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *There was a bellow from across the hall.* [Aloran] "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!"
  1856.  
  1857. [2:11] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore goes deadly quiet. Even the two klingons, flying through the air seem terrified.*
  1858.  
  1859. [2:12] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *on tha tnote, he frantically tries to get in some potshots in any way possible when he heard that dreadful sound*
  1860.  
  1861. [2:12] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She pinkened a little, leaning into Li.* "Anyone I know?"
  1862.  
  1863. [2:12] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara returns with Eryvis and Kelvor. The trio immediate run towards Damian and Bore, trying to break it up.*
  1864.  
  1865. [2:12] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara returns with Eryvis and Kelvor. The trio immediate run towards Damian and Bore, trying to break it up.*
  1866.  
  1867. [2:12] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: You might...she's really cute when she gets embarrassed, and her cheeks light up...
  1868.  
  1869. [2:13] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] *She stampeded through the crowds that had stopped to watch; most of them had the sense to get out of her way in time.*
  1870.  
  1871. [2:13] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he looks back at her* What? taking a day off?
  1872.  
  1873. [2:13] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I have no preference in this matter."
  1874.  
  1875. [2:14] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren looked up.* "Huh?"
  1876.  
  1877. [2:14] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She sucked on her lower lip before she smiled again.* "She does sound familiar..."
  1878.  
  1879. [2:14] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos' brow twitches just slightly, trying to pick up -anything- from her again. However, he still seems relaxed, as he sits a bit further back.* "I think I will stay, then. Your company is... >
  1880.  
  1881. [2:14] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Calming."
  1882.  
  1883. [2:14] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: No PADD out? *he grins* Someone tired already?
  1884.  
  1885. [2:15] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *damian gets yanked off by his crewmates, fighting them as he still tries to dive at Bore*
  1886.  
  1887. [2:16] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Or maybe I already have something planned for later." *She shrugged.*
  1888.  
  1889. [2:16] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: DO you really now? Not going to keep me in the dark now are we?
  1890.  
  1891. [2:17] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The two klingons crash at his feet, perhaps making him lose his balance and fall. Meanwhile Bore just gets up, his attention usurped by the very pissed off rhino coming for him.*
  1892.  
  1893. [2:17] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li leans his forehead against hers.* She also bites on her lip a lot.
  1894.  
  1895. [2:17] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] *She charged right for the two then, getting up in Damian's face.* "One day. WE'VE ONLY BEEN HERE ONE DAMN DAY!"
  1896.  
  1897. [2:18] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Relax homegirl... We all know what you did too!
  1898.  
  1899. [2:18] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "If that is your desire." *She didn't look up from her PADD.*
  1900.  
  1901. [2:19] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos frowns, the song on the loudspeaker in that part of the citadel changes to "Baby it's cold outside." He looks to Varel, shrugging. He is fighting his inner desire to prod her more, but doesn't>
  1902.  
  1903. [2:19] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] *Her face twisted in rage before she went to stomp her heel HARD on his boot.*
  1904.  
  1905. [2:19] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Want to hurt her again.* "Do vulcans have holidays like these?"
  1906.  
  1907. [2:20] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "No."
  1908.  
  1909. [2:20] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *wincing with the curbstomp on his foot, his own head rushes forward to smack against the raging bajorans own head*
  1910.  
  1911. [2:21] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara steps in the middle, taking the smack.*
  1912.  
  1913. [2:21] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara steps in the middle, taking the smack.*
  1914.  
  1915. [2:22] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The klingon brawl erupts again, with full force, now a third one joining in. Bore throws himself to try and drag Kara away, when he sees her intervening, but too late.*
  1916.  
  1917. [2:22] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Or... he doesn't, depending on what kara does.*
  1918.  
  1919. [2:23] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *Blinks and his jaw drops as he realizes what he had just done, his hands rush over to hold Kara and to bring her in close* Kara I'm so sorry!.
  1920.  
  1921. [2:23] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] *She covered her face with her hand.*
  1922.  
  1923. [2:24] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore seems rather enraged at that and throws himself at Dame again, with a punch aimed at his face.*
  1924.  
  1925. [2:24] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore seems rather enraged at that and throws himself at Dame again, with a punch aimed at his face.*
  1926.  
  1927. [2:24] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kara is KO'd, out cold.*
  1928.  
  1929. [2:25] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "So... did you have any holidays like these? Being together with your family, friends?"
  1930.  
  1931. [2:25] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] *Seeing Bore charging, she simply reached out to seize Bore by the throat and hurl him bodily to the ground on his back.* "I SAID, KNOCK IT OFF!"
  1932.  
  1933. [2:26] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: ((With the same idea*))
  1934.  
  1935. [2:26] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *completely oblivious to the surrounds, he grabs ahold of Kara and gently guides her down to the floor, hovering closely as he checks her over* Kara.. no.. I'm so sorry.
  1936.  
  1937. [2:26] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: =/\= "Aloran to Protector," *she said then, turning back to Kara and Damian.* "I need a medic to my location, stat."
  1938.  
  1939. [2:26] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore gets thrown to the ground so hard his breath is completely taken away from him, wheezing in pain as he tries to breathe. He may have something broken, due to the horrid cracking sound heard earl
  1940.  
  1941. [2:27] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: Earlier*
  1942.  
  1943. [2:27] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: *he gently sorts her crazed hair out of her face, gently caressing her cheek as he waits, apolgizing profusely in the meantime8
  1944.  
  1945. [2:28] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] *She giggled faintly, blissfully unaware of the brawl going on one channel away.* "Only when she's feeling bashful..."
  1946.  
  1947. [2:29] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "No," *she replied in the same monotone.*
  1948.  
  1949. [2:30] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Have you tried celebrating something like this? When with starfleet, or in the academy?"
  1950.  
  1951. [2:31] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Which happens to be quite often.
  1952.  
  1953. [2:32] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I have been invited to multiple 'Christmas parties.'"
  1954.  
  1955. [2:32] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *continues to rub away on that nasty bump that begins forming on her forehead, the apolgies coming in waves while he waits for the medic*
  1956.  
  1957. [2:32] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Have you gone to any?"
  1958.  
  1959. [2:32] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "When you're around..."
  1960.  
  1961. [2:32] [DOIC6] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Saariiv] =^= This is the Protector...what has occured to warrant a medic?
  1962.  
  1963. [2:33] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: I bring it out of you?
  1964.  
  1965. [2:33] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore's pained wheezes would be heard even through the comms.*
  1966.  
  1967. [2:34] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] =/\= "Since when does 'send a medic, stat' mean 'ask stupid questions when there's obviously an emergency?!'" *She snarled.* "Snow headbutted Dalby and she's out cold, now DO YOUR JOB!"
  1968.  
  1969. [2:34] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Yes." *Beep boop.*
  1970.  
  1971. [2:35] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Did you like them?"
  1972.  
  1973. [2:35] [DOIC6] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Saariv] =^= Your emotional reaction is unnecessary...Ensign Magreilr will beam down.
  1974.  
  1975. [2:35] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "You bring out a lot of things in me..." *She grinned wickedly.*
  1976.  
  1977. [2:36] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "The experience was generally agreeable."
  1978.  
  1979. [2:36] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *He cradles Kara up in his arms while he waits* I'm.. terribly sorry.
  1980.  
  1981. [2:37] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "What did you find most agreeable?"
  1982.  
  1983. [2:37] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Magreilr materializes next to them.*
  1984.  
  1985. [2:38] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The snake has obviously not given up its attempts to get the affection she's used to getting from everyone from Varel, coiling up next to her, her head rubbing in her from time to time.*
  1986.  
  1987. [2:38] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Magreilr] What is the situation? *He says as he walks over.*
  1988.  
  1989. [2:38] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore wheezes loudly, as if to say he's there too.*
  1990.  
  1991. [2:38] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *Looks up at the materilizaiton process and beckons for him to come over* She's out cold..
  1992.  
  1993. [2:38] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She looked down at Chrisssssstina.* "Your reptile appears to have escaped."
  1994.  
  1995. [2:39] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Escaped? No, she's right next to you. I think she likes you. She likes staying close to those she likes."
  1996.  
  1997. [2:39] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Mag walks over and opens up his medkit, motioning for Damian to step away.*
  1998.  
  1999. [2:39] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore wheezes, the pained sound somehow managing to sound offended.*
  2000.  
  2001. [2:39] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Rea.. really? Do I have to? Can't I just stay here next to her?
  2002.  
  2003. [2:39] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] "These idiots were fighting. Richovy probably needs something too," *she growled, looking at Damian.*
  2004.  
  2005. [2:40] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Mag loads a hypo and applies to Kara's neck.* She appears to have suffered a concussion...I will need to have her beamed to the Protector.
  2006.  
  2007. [2:40] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "It is inadvisable to allow wildlife from our galaxy to run free in the Large Magellanic Cloud."
  2008.  
  2009. [2:41] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *He then walks over to Bore, using his medical tricorder to examine him.*
  2010.  
  2011. [2:41] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *winces* Not again...*lets out a sigh and goes to prss his forehead against hers* I'm so so sorry Kaa..
  2012.  
  2013. [2:41] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] *She looked at Damian.* "So, you going to come quiet or am I going to have to carry you to the brig?"
  2014.  
  2015. [2:41] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I know, I keep an eye on her all the time. I also have... soemthing of a telepathic bond to her. I can always call her back to me when I want to." *He extends his hand slightly and the snake goes in>
  2016.  
  2017. [2:42] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *His palm, coiling up into a small warm ball again.*
  2018.  
  2019. [2:42] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *He looks up at her* Really.. the brig? Seriously?
  2020.  
  2021. [2:43] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Magreilr] His injuries are less severa. *He pulls out a bone regenerator.*
  2022.  
  2023. [2:43] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She watched impassively.* "I was under the impression that Betazoids avoided forming such bonds with animals to avoid the risk of loss of self control."
  2024.  
  2025. [2:43] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That is usually with higher-functioning animals than reptiles... besides, it is not a full-on telepathic bond like I would make with another betazoid... or a mind meld you could perform."
  2026.  
  2027. [2:44] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I am very careful with how I apply my telepathy. Never use it on the job, too, unless it is neccesarry for the ship or crew."
  2028.  
  2029. [2:44] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] *She growled,* "Dalby might've been a mistake, but you were still fighting Rishtavky or whatever the hell his name was."
  2030.  
  2031. [2:45] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore is just looking up at Mag, gratefully.*
  2032.  
  2033. [2:45] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I see." *She looked back down at her PADD.*
  2034.  
  2035. [2:45] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *finally standing up* He punched me first.. if anything take him away..
  2036.  
  2037. [2:45] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] "I'm taking BOTH of you, once this asshole's been fixed." *She jerked her thumb at Bore.*
  2038.  
  2039. [2:46] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore groans as Mag works, being able to speak, a bit quiet.* "Asshole's... eeh. Right. He provoked me, but I hit him."
  2040.  
  2041. [2:46] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Lieutenant.. don't do this please.. I'm.. I'm begging..
  2042.  
  2043. [2:47] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Magreilr] Two cracked ribs...repaired but he will be sore.
  2044.  
  2045. [2:47] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore groans in pain, his nose still visibly broken.* "Ouch... and truly, Lieutenant, I am to blame."
  2046.  
  2047. [2:48] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Mag walks back over to Kara and beams away to the Protector.*
  2048.  
  2049. [2:48] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] "I don't give a shit who started it! Now both of you are going in the brig to cool your heads! Not up for debate!"
  2050.  
  2051. [2:49] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Do vulcans... feel affection? I have seen and know vulcans with pets, and loving romantic relationships with members of other races, but... isn't that forbidden by your teachings?"
  2052.  
  2053. [2:49] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Aloran please!
  2054.  
  2055. [2:49] [DOIC4] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore stands up with a groan.* "I'm going, I'm going. Do you trust me to get there myself or do I need to wait for an escort?"
  2056.  
  2057. [2:49] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *Her cool blue eyes flickered up at Ankos then.* "That is a misconception."
  2058.  
  2059. [2:49] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It is?"
  2060.  
  2061. [2:50] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] "Oh, no. I'm taking you both in myself." She smacked her combadge.
  2062.  
  2063. [2:50] [DOIC4] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *Scoffs at that, looking back to where Kara once laid*
  2064.  
  2065. [2:51] [DOIC4] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] =/\= "Aloran to Protector. Prepare to beam me, Ensign Snow and Ensign Rishovy to the ship."
  2066.  
  2067. [2:52] [DOIC6] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Waid] =^= Energizing...
  2068.  
  2069. [2:52] [DOIC4] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *The trio dematerialize from the Citadel...*
  2070.  
  2071. [2:52] [DOIC6] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *...and materialize on the transporter pad.*
  2072.  
  2073. [2:53] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "It is not 'forbidden.' However, one must practice emotional restraint in these matters lest they overwhelm and cause one to act irrationally."
  2074.  
  2075. [2:53] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Things I didn't even know were there.
  2076.  
  2077. [2:53] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *Storms off toward the brig without saying another word*
  2078.  
  2079. [2:54] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] *She looked at the two.* "March," *she growled before heading there herself.*
  2080.  
  2081. [2:54] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore does as ordered.*
  2082.  
  2083. [2:54] [DOIC3] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Jill] "Things I didn't, either..." *she smiled coyly.*
  2084.  
  2085. [2:55] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Is it difficult?"
  2086.  
  2087. [2:55] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] *She looked thoroughly annoyed that she had to be back on the ship so soon after escaping from it, but she lead them into the brig anyway.*
  2088.  
  2089. [2:55] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] "Separate cells."
  2090.  
  2091. [2:56] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *There was a pause.* "At times."
  2092.  
  2093. [2:56] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I see. I'm sorry."
  2094.  
  2095. [2:56] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *He scoffs* Yeah.. thanks.. really.. thanks a lot..
  2096.  
  2097. [2:57] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "There is no need."
  2098.  
  2099. [2:57] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] "Oh, shut up," *she snapped.*
  2100.  
  2101. [2:57] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore says nothing, entering a random cell.*
  2102.  
  2103. [2:58] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He also tries to avoid looking at Aloran, mostly because he was wildly aroused.*
  2104.  
  2105. [2:58] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *glares at her* Nah.. don't feel like it..
  2106.  
  2107. [2:58] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] "Good thing that's not my problem. Now get in the cell."
  2108.  
  2109. [2:59] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Alright..." *He gets up and comes back from the replicator he was at earlier in a moment, placing some cookies inbetween the two of them and taking a bite out of one.*
  2110.  
  2111. [2:59] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *He slowly makes his way into a cell* You'r e a joke.. you know that?
  2112.  
  2113. [2:59] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Varel didn't even look up.*
  2114.  
  2115. [3:00] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] "Says the laughing stock of the ship." *She went to activate their force fields.*
  2116.  
  2117. [3:00] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *turns back around to face her* Mhmm.. takes one to know one..
  2118.  
  2119. [3:01] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Don't vulcans eat cookies?"
  2120.  
  2121. [3:01] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] *She quickly checked to see who she'd left on duty tonight.*
  2122.  
  2123. [3:01] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I do not presently require nourishment."
  2124.  
  2125. [3:02] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] =/\= "Aloran to McMillan."
  2126.  
  2127. [3:03] [DOIC5] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [McMillan] =^= Yes ma'am?
  2128.  
  2129. [3:03] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: =/\= "I have two Ensigns who were caught brawling on the Citadel locked up in the brig, mind keeping an eye on them for me?"
  2130.  
  2131. [3:04] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Don't you do things just because you enjoy them from time to time? Like. Small things that if you're careful with, can't drive you to act irrationally. Like eating sometihng just because it's ?
  2132.  
  2133. [3:04] [DOIC5] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [McMillan] =^= No ma'am.
  2134.  
  2135. [3:04] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Delicious... Or enjoying someone else's company? Whether as a friend or co-worker or sexual partner?"
  2136.  
  2137. [3:05] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore suddenly remembers at least 15 prisoner shanties he knows and curses himself for not having a harmonica.*
  2138.  
  2139. [3:06] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *slides himself to the floor, knowing that he'd be spending thenight there."
  2140.  
  2141. [3:07] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore sits down as well, closing his eyes and calming his breathing.*
  2142.  
  2143. [3:10] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] =/\= "That's what I like to hear. Just keep them locked up until the end of your shift. They need to calm their tits." *She glared at the two.*
  2144.  
  2145. [3:10] [DOIC5] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [McMillan] =^= Understood, on my way.
  2146.  
  2147. [3:11] [DOIC6] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Bore looks like a kid caught with his hand in the cookie jar.*
  2148.  
  2149. [3:11] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] Here's an idea...You first... *he scoffs as he looks away*
  2150.  
  2151. [3:12] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "One may engage in indulgences of that manner."
  2152.  
  2153. [3:12] [DOIC6] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Kaitlyn enters the brig, taking up the post.*
  2154.  
  2155. [3:12] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren rolled her shoulders.*
  2156.  
  2157. [3:13] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Aloran] *She simply nodded at McMillan before she turned and charged off for the transporter room before anyone could catch her on the ship.*
  2158.  
  2159. [3:13] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Then why don't you?"
  2160.  
  2161. [3:13] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I do not wish to."
  2162.  
  2163. [3:13] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Your loss, Lieutenant, the cookies are amazing."
  2164.  
  2165. [3:14] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he looks over at her* Sure those plans of yours are coming through tonight?
  2166.  
  2167. [3:14] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Starting to think the bastard might've gotten thrown in a brig somewhere," *she shrugged.* "His loss."
  2168.  
  2169. [3:15] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he grins* Right.. his loss.. *chuckles*
  2170.  
  2171. [3:15] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I shall take your word for it."
  2172.  
  2173. [3:15] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She smirked at Sin.* "You don't have to act so pleased about it."
  2174.  
  2175. [3:15] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "You trust the word of an emotional creature like a betazoid?"
  2176.  
  2177. [3:16] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Me pleased? Why you think that?
  2178.  
  2179. [3:17] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "You mistake my people's desire to regulate their own emotions for a dismissal of species who do not."
  2180.  
  2181. [3:18] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Call it a hunch," *Eren shrugged as she sipped her drink.*
  2182.  
  2183. [3:18] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I was teasing you, lieutenant..." *He looks at the chrono* "Merry Christmas, Lieutenant."
  2184.  
  2185. [3:19] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: (Happy holidays*)
  2186.  
  2187. [3:19] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She raised a brow.* "Are you departing, then?"
  2188.  
  2189. [3:19] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: What a nice subtle answer.. *he slowly nods, peering over at her*
  2190.  
  2191. [3:20] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She looked back.* "What?"
  2192.  
  2193. [3:20] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Not unless you want me to. I just noticed that what the humans call "Christmas Eve" has stardted."
  2194.  
  2195. [3:20] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "You may stay or depart as you desire."
  2196.  
  2197. [3:21] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Not leaving you alone at the very start of the festivities."
  2198.  
  2199. [3:21] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he quirks a brow* Hmm?
  2200.  
  2201. [3:22] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "If that is your desire. However, you would likely find your compatriots to be of more stimulating company."
  2202.  
  2203. [3:23] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "What makes you think I'm opposed to your company?"
  2204.  
  2205. [3:23] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Forget it," *Eren shrugged and went back to her drink.*
  2206.  
  2207. [3:24] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he smiles* No.. no no no.. not so fast.. come on..
  2208.  
  2209. [3:24] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I did not say that."
  2210.  
  2211. [3:25] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "...It's literally that I just didn't get what you were getting at." *She shrugged again and sipped her drink.*
  2212.  
  2213. [3:25] [DOIC6] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *In the brig, Kaitlyn walks over to Damian's cell. She lowers the forcefield to hand him a PADD.*
  2214.  
  2215. [3:26] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Good. I quite enjoy your company, as a matter of fact."
  2216.  
  2217. [3:26] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *glacnes up at her, reaching up to accept the PADD* Thanks..
  2218.  
  2219. [3:27] [DOIC6] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [McMillan] I made sure to route all of your incoming comms to here...this thing called 'Spacr' kept going off.
  2220.  
  2221. [3:27] [DOIC6] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *She steps back and restores the forcefield.* I didn't read them. You're welcome. *She gives a small smile before returning ot her post.*
  2222.  
  2223. [3:27] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I see." *She looked back at her PADD again.*
  2224.  
  2225. [3:28] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he finishes his eggnog and leans with his back against the bar, watching out*
  2226.  
  2227. [3:28] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *sighs, cringing slightly* Oh boy..
  2228.  
  2229. [3:28] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *There was a non-Spacr message for Damian as well.*
  2230.  
  2231. [3:29] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *quirking a brow, he chooses to open the non-spacr message first*
  2232.  
  2233. [3:29] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He slips into silence once more, enjoying the christmas song and the peace and quiet for once.*
  2234.  
  2235. [3:29] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *It was a video file from RRigby8274.*
  2236.  
  2237. [3:30] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *he ponders some before playing the video*
  2238.  
  2239. [3:31] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *The video opened on a 25th century living room with a massive tree piled high with presents around it. Laying next to the tree is an ancient German Shepherd, his fur mostly grey and his head...
  2240.  
  2241. [3:33] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: rested on his front legs. Slowly, the front door opened, a tall blonde man carrying a big bag on his back walking in with a massive grin on his face. The dog looked up at him, wagging his tail...
  2242.  
  2243. [3:33] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Sinez's eggnog is refilled.*
  2244.  
  2245. [3:34] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: despite the obvious strain it put his aged body into. "Joe, do you know who's here?" the blond man asked as he crouched down and set the bag beside him. The dog paused, looking up as another...
  2246.  
  2247. [3:35] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: man stepped through the threshold. The ancient canine started to struggle to get on his feet, his tail wagging furiously and a series of 'row row row!' coming from his mouth as Ricky closed in on...
  2248.  
  2249. [3:36] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: him, wrapping his arms around the dog tightly.* "Joe!" *he practically sobbed, burying his face in the dog's fur as the ancient boy proceded to go apeshit as though he were a puppy all over again...
  2250.  
  2251. [3:37] [DOIC6] Sereya Eren@liorexus: with liberal licks to his face that were enough to send the formerly displaced ensign onto his back, laughing and crying hysterically.*
  2252.  
  2253. [3:38] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *he grins, clearly moved by the clip* Awww ricky... finally went home..
  2254.  
  2255. [3:40] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he turns back around, glancing at the bartender* You really are bored now aren't you?
  2256.  
  2257. [3:40] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The snake wakes up from its little nap, going to bother Varel again.*
  2258.  
  2259. [3:41] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *he warily glances around, situating himself on the floor so he could get comfortable before he opens up his Spacr app*
  2260.  
  2261. [3:41] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "She really likes you." *Ankos smiles down at the snake rubbing itself against her, once more*
  2262.  
  2263. [3:42] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Evidently," *she said, regarding the snek coolly.*
  2264.  
  2265. [3:43] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *glances up and out at the forcefield for a brief moment, both his brows raised*
  2266.  
  2267. [3:43] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Snek is getting agitated at being ignored, its boops becoming more and more insistent.* "I can call her back if she's a bother."
  2268.  
  2269. [3:43] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Bartender] Bored?
  2270.  
  2271. [3:44] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *he begins typing out a reply* -text- I may or may not have fucked up and ended up in a brig..
  2272.  
  2273. [3:45] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Just filling up my eggnog whenver you want?
  2274.  
  2275. [3:45] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "That would be appreciated."
  2276.  
  2277. [3:45] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: [Bartender] It's my job to make the officers happy.
  2278.  
  2279. [3:46] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren glanced down at her PADD.* "...Holy shit, I was right."
  2280.  
  2281. [3:47] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Hmm? he's stuck in a brig? You sure know how to pick them..
  2282.  
  2283. [3:48] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren rolled her eyes and typed back.*
  2284.  
  2285. [3:48] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: -Text- "You're a fucking idiot."
  2286.  
  2287. [3:48] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She turned off her PADD and looked at the bartender.* "Nother round!"
  2288.  
  2289. [3:48] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos calls the snek back, it wrapping around his arm, but glaring up at him, as if to tell him she doesn't approve of his choice of companions.* "Sorry about her."
  2290.  
  2291. [3:49] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *The bartender nods and fills their glasses as instructed.*
  2292.  
  2293. [3:49] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *he reads the message once it comes in.. rolling his eyes* I'm not the one who sent nudes through the app..
  2294.  
  2295. [3:50] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he glances to his side at her* Really? chang of plans now?
  2296.  
  2297. [3:52] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Roll with the punches," *she shrugged.*
  2298.  
  2299. [3:52] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She raised a brow at Ankos.* "She is an animal."
  2300.  
  2301. [3:52] [DOIC6] Sinez@the5of435: [Damian] *he returns back to that special pic, thinking on about what could've happened had he not done goofed*
  2302.  
  2303. [3:53] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Hm? What do you mean?"
  2304.  
  2305. [3:54] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "You apologised on her behalf. There is no need to do so."
  2306.  
  2307. [3:54] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he smirks* Sound logic.. that extra lifetime really did work wonders..
  2308.  
  2309. [3:54] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I am her owner, no? If she's annoying you, that's my fault as much as hers."
  2310.  
  2311. [3:56] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She rolled her eyes.* "Screw you, Kodor," *she smirked.* "I'm full of wisdom."
  2312.  
  2313. [3:56] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he simply throws a flat look her way*
  2314.  
  2315. [3:57] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "As you say."
  2316.  
  2317. [3:58] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It's one of the actual holidays now, everyone is resting... are you still going to work?"
  2318.  
  2319. [3:58] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren shrugged again and drank.*
  2320.  
  2321. [3:58] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Yes."
  2322.  
  2323. [3:59] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Huh... So, no inviting you to a holiday holodeck, then?"
  2324.  
  2325. [3:59] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he shakes his head, picking up his drink and taking a sip* I'm full of wisdom.. *smirks* Such a clown you are..
  2326.  
  2327. [4:00] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I have no inclination."
  2328.  
  2329. [4:01] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "And would you have some other time?"
  2330.  
  2331. [4:01] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She rolled her eyes.*
  2332.  
  2333. [4:02] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "That is unlikely. I prefer more intensive programs."
  2334.  
  2335. [4:02] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Oh? Like?"
  2336.  
  2337. [4:03] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *grinning lightly* So.. this idiot.. scale of 1 to 10.. how badly has he ruined his chances..
  2338.  
  2339. [4:03] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Have you heard of a 'first person shooter?'"
  2340.  
  2341. [4:03] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I have. Me and a few friends used to play those pretty often in one of the Academy holodecks when they were free."
  2342.  
  2343. [4:04] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She smirked.* "Well, if he gets out of the brig before we leave the Citadel, we'll see. Not like I was ever going to spend more than a few hours with the idiot anyway."
  2344.  
  2345. [4:04] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I don't care if he's an idiot, so long as he's a useful idiot who can take instructions if his own abilities lack."
  2346.  
  2347. [4:05] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I find that they are adequate training simulations. I also engage in a program that simulates siege warfare of the European middle ages on Earth."
  2348.  
  2349. [4:06] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "You do? I've only ever played these... gladiatorial duels from their ancient times, if we're speaking earth history... Are the sieges good?"
  2350.  
  2351. [4:06] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "They are historically accurate."
  2352.  
  2353. [4:08] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he smirks* Eren.. HOw many people have you shagged since we docked?
  2354.  
  2355. [4:08] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Just one."
  2356.  
  2357. [4:09] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "So, you're interested in history?"
  2358.  
  2359. [4:09] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he cracks a smile* Just one? SOunds to me like someone better step up their game..
  2360.  
  2361. [4:10] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Historical battles, even those fought with primitive weaponry and tactics, can give one a unique insight into the tactics employed in modern times."
  2362.  
  2363. [4:11] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren shrugged.* "It's not like I have a quota. I'm just having fun."
  2364.  
  2365. [4:12] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: You know.. deep down inside of me... I think you really do.. *he nods once* That's.. that's key.. having fun.
  2366.  
  2367. [4:13] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Huh. I don't really get to move and train around a lot with my job... and I was always interested in history when I was younger... think you could show me to one of those sieges sometime?"
  2368.  
  2369. [4:14] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "That it is," *she shrugged, going to lean back against the counter.*
  2370.  
  2371. [4:16] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "If that is your wish."
  2372.  
  2373. [4:16] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he glances over at her* I may just leave you to your hunt then..
  2374.  
  2375. [4:17] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It is"
  2376.  
  2377. [4:17] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I'm not hunting. Barely anyone here anyway. But by all means, don't let me keep you from finding your huntress." *She shrugged.*
  2378.  
  2379. [4:18] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Eh.. she's easy to find.. she's not good at being the prey..
  2380.  
  2381. [4:19] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Also helps being friends with Eirene..
  2382.  
  2383. [4:19] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "If I have the time, I will do so." *Beep. Boop. Beep.*
  2384.  
  2385. [4:20] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren shrugged again.* "Good for you?"
  2386.  
  2387. [4:20] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I can give you my PADD coordinates, in case you decide to hit one of those holodeck sims up and call me?"
  2388.  
  2389. [4:21] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Very well."
  2390.  
  2391. [4:21] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Very goood.. You know.. if you're interested.. Ri does have a brother.. *he smirks*
  2392.  
  2393. [4:21] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He takes out his PADD, holding it close to hers, the data would transmit if she allows it.*
  2394.  
  2395. [4:22] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "You mean Ridgeface Dumbasserson who tried to fight you for her 'honour?' Yeah, pass."
  2396.  
  2397. [4:23] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Varel let him do so.*
  2398.  
  2399. [4:23] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: I'm only messing with ya sereya.. I didn't think you'd set your standards that low..
  2400.  
  2401. [4:24] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *The data transfers. Ankos taps her name down on his PADD, then opens a window to quickly type something else out, and looks at her.* "A particular siege you like? Or will you surprise me?"
  2402.  
  2403. [4:24] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Need something a lot stronger than peppermint cocktails for that," *she laughed.*
  2404.  
  2405. [4:24] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "The program's elements will be randomised to provide an adequate challenge."
  2406.  
  2407. [4:25] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *pulling out his personalized PADD* Some bloodwine seemed to do the trick..
  2408.  
  2409. [4:25] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, so it is not any historical siege in particular?"
  2410.  
  2411. [4:25] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I wasn't going to say it," *she smirked.*
  2412.  
  2413. [4:25] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Come on now.. look at this face.. you wouldn't have even needed bloodwine..
  2414.  
  2415. [4:26] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Its historical accuracy lies in its portrayal of siege warfare, not in the scenarios. However historical sieges are available if you desire to participate in one."
  2416.  
  2417. [4:26] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, no. I think I would prefer to see something random. There is no real push to do your best if you already know the outcome, right?"
  2418.  
  2419. [4:27] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos glances down at his PADD and types something else down.*
  2420.  
  2421. [4:27] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren smirked at Sin with that.* "And I thought I had an ego..."
  2422.  
  2423. [4:27] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Our friendly Betazoid claims he has a date with the vulcan killjoy..
  2424.  
  2425. [4:28] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Really? Ego? Hmm I thought it was the truth... *he smirks*
  2426.  
  2427. [4:28] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren rolled her eyes.*
  2428.  
  2429. [4:29] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Personal excellence is a strong motivating factor regardless of outcome."
  2430.  
  2431. [4:29] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Hey I'm realistic alright? You don't hear me babbling on about being irresistable.. right?
  2432.  
  2433. [4:29] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Of course. But when you know your army is going to get crushed no matter how well you do, it is a little demoralizing."
  2434.  
  2435. [4:32] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "You know better," *Eren smirked.* "Or you should."
  2436.  
  2437. [4:32] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Incorrect. It motivates one to do as much as they can within the parameters thay have been given."
  2438.  
  2439. [4:34] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he bring a hand up to his chest, feigning shock* How rude eren.. *he peers over at her and grins* I thought you were kind and caring...
  2440.  
  2441. [4:35] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren raised a finger to her lips.* "Don't tell Skye," *she winked.*
  2442.  
  2443. [4:35] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "...I've not looked at it like that... Huh. You fascinate me."
  2444.  
  2445. [4:35] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Evidently."
  2446.  
  2447. [4:36] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Is it that evident?"
  2448.  
  2449. [4:36] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Even as a fgroup we couldn't lie... even to that cold vulcan.. skye's presence changed us..
  2450.  
  2451. [4:36] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "You have not ceased to attempt to engage me in conversation for some time now."
  2452.  
  2453. [4:36] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Jury still out on whether its a good thing or bad though I'm afriad.
  2454.  
  2455. [4:37] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Attempt? I got you talking about sieges, I'd call that a partway success." *He smirks.*
  2456.  
  2457. [4:38] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren shook her head.* "We're all getting soft, and there's only one person to blame," *she chuckled.*
  2458.  
  2459. [4:38] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I was answering your questions."
  2460.  
  2461. [4:39] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he nods* Mhmm... I agree. Sereya Eren is the one to blame.. *smirking*
  2462.  
  2463. [4:39] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Is that so? You seemed -almost- interested."
  2464.  
  2465. [4:39] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I've been accused of lots of things, but I've never been accused of making someone go soft..."
  2466.  
  2467. [4:40] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he thinks back on a certain time, shaking his head softly* Oh man..
  2468.  
  2469. [4:41] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She raised a brow.* "You asked me which programs I engage in. It is only logical to assume that I have an interest in them."
  2470.  
  2471. [4:42] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She tilted her head at Sin.* "Hm?"
  2472.  
  2473. [4:43] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That it is... I'll be right back in a moment, going to get some more hot chocolate to drink... getting a bit cold."
  2474.  
  2475. [4:43] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: ((AFK))
  2476.  
  2477. [4:43] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She just went back to work.*
  2478.  
  2479. [4:45] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He returns in a bit, two cups of hot chocolate.* "If you don't want yours, I'll have it later." *He sets them down inbetween them.*
  2480.  
  2481. [4:46] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "You may keep it."
  2482.  
  2483. [4:47] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He nods.* "Feel free to ask if you want anything, I don't mind getting up again."
  2484.  
  2485. [4:47] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I do not."
  2486.  
  2487. [4:48] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods. He sips his hot chocolate, the snake in his hand sleeping, obviously given up on Varel.*
  2488.  
  2489. [4:49] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "How is... being here like for you? Surely, you feel something. Being amongst the first in a new galaxy... It's... something else."
  2490.  
  2491. [4:50] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I have been performing my duties as adequately in the Large Magellanic Cloud as I did in the Milky Way galaxy."
  2492.  
  2493. [4:51] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *The drinks are refilled again.*
  2494.  
  2495. [4:51] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Yes, but don't you find it fascinating? You're one of the first people to see new races, planets, star systems..."
  2496.  
  2497. [4:51] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he shakes his head* maybe some other time..
  2498.  
  2499. [4:51] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Be seeing you Eren..
  2500.  
  2501. [4:51] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "It is intriguing."
  2502.  
  2503. [4:52] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren nodded.* "Night, Kodor. Take care of yourself."
  2504.  
  2505. [4:55] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "How long have you been here? I've been in the LMC for... a month? And already so much's changing. Civilian trading ships coming in, resettling efforts..."
  2506.  
  2507. [4:56] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I was restored to active duty aboard the Sentinel five months ago."
  2508.  
  2509. [4:57] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "So, what was it like? I've been hearing tales of battles, even the citadel being attacked... I think I'm glad I didn't have to see that."
  2510.  
  2511. [4:57] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "There has been little change."
  2512.  
  2513. [4:58] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Really? I thought things were getting better for the federation..."
  2514.  
  2515. [4:59] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I cannot speak for the experiences of other ships that have been active in the region."
  2516.  
  2517. [5:02] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I see. Well. It's the holidays, right? You don't believe in things like this, but I think I'm going to wish for a better year for this place than last one
  2518.  
  2519. [5:03] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I see. Well. It's the holidays, right? You don't believe in things like this, but I think I'm going to wish for a better year for this place than last one
  2520.  
  2521. [5:03] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "This year has already been a better year for the LMC than tha last two million," *she remarked.*
  2522.  
  2523. [5:04] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That's true... I wish this... war is over soon. There is so much actual exploration to do. New races, new technologies, new worlds..."
  2524.  
  2525. [5:05] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "That is unlikely given the scope of our adversary."
  2526.  
  2527. [5:06] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I've still not met them in person, so to speak... I've heard so many different, contradicting stories, I'm not even sure what to expect."
  2528.  
  2529. [5:07] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "No one from the Federation has yet encountered more than their servants and thralls, if statements made by said servants and thralls are to be believed."
  2530.  
  2531. [5:09] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Huh. That brings about the question if they even have physical forms... and where exactly their headquarters are and how well organized they are if they have so many servants... Huh. I almost envy >
  2532.  
  2533. [5:09] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "The science departments."
  2534.  
  2535. [5:10] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Those are the exact questions that we have been seeking the answers to, Counselor."
  2536.  
  2537. [5:11] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Maybe I do have the mind of something more than a counselor" *He smirks.*
  2538.  
  2539. [5:12] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "One would certainly hope so."
  2540.  
  2541. [5:14] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I try. I've tried my hand at diplomacy once already, with these... sentient space-fairing squids. The size of a starship."
  2542.  
  2543. [5:14] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "We ended up being friends, so I guess I did well enough."
  2544.  
  2545. [5:15] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *Her angled brow quirked slightly.* "Evidently," *she said again.*
  2546.  
  2547. [5:17] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I am full of surprises... I might turn out to be a tactical genius during the siege, who knows." *He grins, though he obviously doesn't believe his words.*
  2548.  
  2549. [5:18] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "Any natural aptitude for tactics would have been detected upon entering Starfleet Academy," *she said matter-of-factly.*
  2550.  
  2551. [5:19] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "You didn't detect my sarcasm, Lieutenant."
  2552.  
  2553. [5:20] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She looked at him impassively.*
  2554.  
  2555. [5:22] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Maybe I've grown more apt at it these past six years, no?"
  2556.  
  2557. [5:22] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "There's always room for improvement."
  2558.  
  2559. [5:22] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "That remains consistant."
  2560.  
  2561. [5:23] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Eh, even if I turn out useless, you could always use me as one more meat shield."
  2562.  
  2563. [5:24] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I believe that the historically accurate term is 'cannon fodder.'"
  2564.  
  2565. [5:25] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He actually chuckles at that, raising an eyebrow at her.* "Well, you're full of surprises too, it seems."
  2566.  
  2567. [5:26] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She looked at him expressionlessly still.* "I do not believe that my knowledge of historical terms should be surprising, considering that I have already made my interest in such things...
  2568.  
  2569. [5:26] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: known."
  2570.  
  2571. [5:28] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I think you know what I meant." *He chuckles again.*
  2572.  
  2573. [5:29] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I do not know what you are referring to."
  2574.  
  2575. [5:30] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Of course you don't." *He winks.*
  2576.  
  2577. [5:32] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She continued to observe him for another moment before she went back to her PADD.*
  2578.  
  2579. [5:34] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He finishes his hot chocolate and goes in for the cup he intended for Varel.* "So, is the Sentinel staying docked here much longer?"
  2580.  
  2581. [5:35] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "It is my understanding that we will be staying through the end of the Earth's year."
  2582.  
  2583. [5:35] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That's good. Means I'll have more chances to run into you."
  2584.  
  2585. [5:36] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "That is accurate."
  2586.  
  2587. [5:38] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He leans backwards, shifting a bit, removing his jacket.* "And now it's too warm... the climate control is either busted or Eirene is just messing with me."
  2588.  
  2589. [5:39] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "You have been consuming hot beverages prepared with high quantities of sugar. Are you certain that your sudden rise in temperature is not indigestion?"
  2590.  
  2591. [5:40] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He raises an eyebrow at this.* "Wow, did you just..." *He smirks.* "Okay, I see how it is."
  2592.  
  2593. [5:41] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I do not understand what you mean."
  2594.  
  2595. [5:41] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Of course, ever the innocent logical vulcan."
  2596.  
  2597. [5:42] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "If you wish to imply maliciousness on my part, I can assure you that you are mistaken. That would be an illogical course of action."
  2598.  
  2599. [5:43] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Not maliciousness... just... throwing shade, so to speak."
  2600.  
  2601. [5:45] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She stared at him expressionlessly still.* "You cast a shadow as well, Counslor."
  2602.  
  2603. [5:46] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos looks at her for a moment, before exploding in laughter.* "Oh, you're good."
  2604.  
  2605. [5:47] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I fail to see what relevance that has to your rise in temperature."
  2606.  
  2607. [5:48] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Maybe it has to do with you poking fun of me... without malicious intent, of course."
  2608.  
  2609. [5:49] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "My statement was not intended as a jest. I offered an alternative, as I had not noticed a rise in temperatures."
  2610.  
  2611. [5:51] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Of course..." *He relaxes once again, a slight smirk still on his lips, not believing he was low-key vulcan roasted.*
  2612.  
  2613. [5:52] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] *She rose from her seat then.* "I must return to my ship."
  2614.  
  2615. [5:53] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Of course. It was a pleasure making your acquaitance. If you feel like hitting the holodeck, you can call me."
  2616.  
  2617. [5:54] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: [Varel] "I am aware. Farewell, Counselor." *And without another word, she turned and walked off.*
