[8:57] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: The Sentinel sails gracefully above the blue green gem of a world below. The white majestic clouds
dnce below them over the gleaming lights of the cities below. The media senstion continues to

[8:57] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: dominate the Bursali's communictiosn networks. All eyes below seemed turned upwards to the sky. News
reports continue their updates since the initital contact with the alien ship high above...updates

[8:59] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: turn into network roundtables discussing just what the future now holds..excited citizens and the
Outreach Program's channel just has a coutndrown screen to thier next press conference

[8:59] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: The credits roll over these as Joy's log is heard as a voiceover...

[9:01] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Captain's Log: Supplemental. We're finishing preparations to retrieve our injured and meet with

[9:03] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: >see a need to Ease them into our capabilities. This vulnerability, the difficulty with
transporting, is actually a good lesson. They'll see us as powerful, but still limited. I intend to inform them>

[9:04] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: >of it, but at a careful moment. Eitherway, Commander Shantal will be co-leading the medical

[9:04] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: End Log.

[9:05] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *The trill is still watching teddy bear TV.*

[9:06] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] -is recording all of the information she can gather on this rather indutrious race from the
com networks-

[9:06] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Lieutenant.  Have your studies yeilded any insights into the culture of the species?"

[9:06] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri is doing the same, but from the TV feeds.*

[9:06] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Is back to doing scans and investigatign the great mysteries after having been down in
science lab to aid a new cremate*

[9:06] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -the sickby staff is working to prep to deal with Delta radiation injuries-

[9:07] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -steps out onto the bridge- "Are we ready to go?"

[9:07] [DOIC4] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dawkins] -is working with Harry and Lebs teams prep the two shuttles for medical transport-

[9:07] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *She looked at Joy, then tapped her badge.*

[9:08] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --is researching Delta radiation injuries, looking up new treatment options as her team puts
together thier gear.--

[9:08] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: =/\= "Bridge to Shuttlebay.  What is our estimated time until the shuttles are prepared for departure?"

[9:08] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri looks to Varel, waiting for her to finish her call so she can report in on her
findings.*

[9:09] [DOIC4] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dawkins] ^= The shuttles would be able to go now..the sticky wicket..is the extra shielding to cope
wth the patients stricken by the delta rays

[9:09] [DOIC4] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dawkins] =^= We are gonna need a few hours according to our engineers

[9:10] [DOIC4] Varel@liorexus: =/\= "Understood, shuttlebay."  *She looked at Joy.*

[9:10] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: =/\= "Understood, shuttlebay."  *She looked at Joy.*

[9:10] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] Um....we are being hailed

[9:11] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -nods- "Go ahead.'

[9:11] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Put it on."

[9:11] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] puts it on audio there is some static...and murmering voices finally a single young voice=
...Hello?

[9:12] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel did not look impressed.*

[9:12] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri smiles at the voice, looking away from the vulcan for the moment.*

[9:13] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] -smiles thogh seem surprised-

[9:13] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Hello, this is Captain Dalun of the Sentinel."

[9:14] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Voice] -a rush of voices behind the mic- Ssssh! SsssH OmiLords we did it.we GOT THROUGH...uM....Hi
..is this the Alien ship? -dead silence while the other side waits for the answer-

[9:14] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] -turns to look at this-

[9:15] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she shakes her head as she reads, then glances at the chronometer and looks impatient.--

[9:15] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon scratches his head.*

[9:15] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -joys voice goes rather motherly- =^= "Yes, Sweetie, this is the alien ship."

[9:15] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *looks up from all her screens to glance at the main viewscreen*

[9:15] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -steps up over to the nearest window to look out across the new world-

[9:15] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *She glanced at Joy when she heard her use the word 'sweetie.'*

[9:16] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -several wooots and cheers-

[9:16] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri smiles happily at the teddy bear happiness, and how sweet Joy was.*

[9:16] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Voice] Umm...Hello Ma'am Captain..I am...Deran...um...chief of Asto Secondary's Astronomy CLub...it
is mysworn duty..andhonro to welcome you to Bursali

[9:17] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] -cringes at this and giggles-

[9:17] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Quiet, very quiet* "Awwww."

[9:17] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she taps her omm badge-- =/\=Sickbay to shuttlebay.=/\=

[9:17] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] -chirps delightfully-

[9:17] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: **comm badge

[9:17] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -makes a short sigh- "Consider us warmly welcomed. I have to let you know that this is a very
sensitive time and for now, I have to ask you boys to refrain from contacting us. As much as we'd love to>

[9:18] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: >talk to all of you, I would like to keep these lines of communication clear as we talk to your
government."

[9:18] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri turns to smile at the fishie, glad to see someone else as happy as she was.*

[9:18] [DOIC4] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dawkins] -cringes at the sound of the voice before hitting her combadge and answering cheerfully-
=^= Hanger deck here doctor

[9:19] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: =/\=Hey Dawkins, I was wondering what the time frame on that shuttle was looking like?=/\=

[9:19] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Deran] -instanty rresponds- Yes...Yes Captain! Thank ou and please..again..um..welcome? -static and
then an electronic tone as somewhere the Bursali Defense Department just cut them off-

[9:20] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] Those boys are soo groudned..that came in off of a givernment sattelite

[9:20] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Wow.

[9:20] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] Those boys are soo grounded..that came in off of a government sattelite

[9:20] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri chuckles.* "How adorable was that... And very smart for their age." *She then
looks at Varel.* "Lieutenant, about your question."

[9:20] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] Curious....yet mischeivious

[9:21] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Their cybersecurity appears to be lacking if their satellites can be accessed by adolescents."  *She
looked to Veeri then.*

[9:21] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "The Bursali seem to hold the same spirit of exploration and lust for knowledge early
humans and trills held, just as they headed out to the stars. And there appears to be a single planetary >

[9:21] [DOIC4] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dawkins] =^= Well doctor...we are looking at three to four hours inimum to secure the shuttles to
safely transport your patients

[9:21] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Government, a democratic one, although it is young. It has been in place for roughly...
24-25 sol years, I'd say?"

[9:22] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I'm going to ask the Director when I speak with them. I suspect this may even ahve been a
sanctioned surprise."

[9:22] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Is there any indication of the nature of their governments prior to this democratic unification?"

[9:22] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] -teases Varel- Do not forget when you write up the Bursali Defense Department...Bursali
begins with a B

[9:22] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I don't know did I let them down too hard though you think?"

[9:22] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "I do not believe I would be confused on that matter, Commander."

[9:23] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: =/\=Oh wow that really doesn't work. We are really pressed for time here. Is there some way your
s=could speed that up?=/\=

[9:23] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Your response was entirely logical and reasonable, Captain."

[9:23] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "You were nice, Captain! I'm sure they understand, they appear to be smart children."
*She then looks to Varel.* "Well... there were several feudal ones, a Corporation-owned government, and a >

[9:24] [DOIC4] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dawkins] =^= Like as not no..we have this strnge interfernece to deal with...not to mention even in
stasis..delta rays are not something you plai have ot think of my flght crews doctor around with...

[9:24] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Military dictatorship. If their history channel is correct, all the other governments
unified against the military dictatorship, and that paved the way for their further joining."

[9:25] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: =/\=I understand. We wouldn't want to further endanger any more lives. I know you will do your
best.=/\=

[9:25] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Hmmm. If that corporate influencee remains a power player that could be interesting. And
concerning. I'd wonder about how our being a post-scarcity society would effect talks."

[9:26] [DOIC4] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dawkins] =^= Harry Says he and Leb will..'put the hustle in their bustle' for you doc..promise

[9:26] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "A unification against a common enemy is common in other planetary histories.  The question remains as
to if the union can last with the absence of said enemy.  However, given this new event in...

[9:26] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: =/\=Tell them I said thank you. To all of you.=/\=

[9:26] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: their history, their odds do improve."

[9:26] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "

[9:27] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] How long ago was that war Veeri?

[9:27] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri nods to Varel.* "We can serve as a positive example to them! Even with the
corporate influence still there... which I cannot confirm as of right now."

[9:27] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *reviews scans of the grand shroud while listening in to the conversation*

[9:27] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --as she closes the channel she sighs, no feeling overly confident about her chances of saving
those three officers.--

[9:27] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Sadly the fiction and truth of many civilizations end up with other ends... But the story of
the Founding of the Federation will show us common ground. Or the unification of Earth. I... wish I had>

[9:28] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "They are also likely to now encounter the Dark, giving them another common enemy."

[9:28] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: >stories about Trill unifying like that, but the Symbionts and our world being geologically
volatile pushed us together by default."

[9:28] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri looks to Alice.* "Thirty-six years ago, Ma'am commander Cameron. They fought what
they call "The unification war" for four years, and they stayed unified, eventually joining governments."

[9:29] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] Admirable

[9:29] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Interesting.

[9:29] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri nodnods to Ynera.*

[9:30] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] from what ive been abel to find..they combined their various space programs into one big one

[9:30] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Their history channels are fun... even if one of them focuses on Bursali logistics
officers in their polar wastelands too much."

[9:30] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she starts researching experimental treatments for stage three delta radiation sickness.--

[9:30] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: That's a good sign. Your people did that as well did they not?"

[9:30] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel raised a brow at Veeri.*

[9:30] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: Ont he mainviewscreen...s the sentine enters nightside..one of the cities below...begins flashing
their lights on and off a the sentinel passes over head-

[9:31] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks up.*

[9:31] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] Earth? yes they did...starfleet is the last eolutionary step of suh organiztions such a NASA
and the ESA

[9:31] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "This is almost... too good to be true. I feel like I haven't been party to such a... Good
first contact two hundred years."

[9:31] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] They...untouched by darkness it seems

[9:32] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] They are...untouched by darkness it seems

[9:32] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri smiles at the lights of the city.* "I am so happy to hear that, miss Ynera."

[9:32] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Captain, I have a suggestion.  If you wished to reach the surface sooner than within three to four
hours, the diplomatic shuttle can depart before the medical shuttle.  Doctor Spencer can come with..

[9:32] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: us to assess her patients before the arrival of the second shuttle."

[9:34] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] Actuly they seemed more eager to deal with the patients first...I would imagine their
government is scrambling at the moment as to how to handle us

[9:34] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "... You know, I wish I'd thought of that. Let's do that."

[9:34] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "If anything, we can assess if we can handle and emergency transport, and if not, we'll at
least have an idea of the situation."

[9:35] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= "Doctor, this is the Captain."

[9:35] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri turns her attentions back to Teddy bear TV, trying to figure out anything more.*

[9:35] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: =/\=Doctor Spencer here go ahead.=/\=

[9:35] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *She looked at Alice.*  "You believe they require additional time to prepare for our arrival."

[9:36] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] -chuckles- I would think our arrival was slightly unexpected..yes

[9:36] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= "It's taking some time to get the medical shuttle ready as I know we're both aware, but
Lieutenant Varel made an interesting point. You're coming with us on the diplomatic shuttle to do an>

[9:36] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] I do not think they believed their warp ship would find us so quickly

[9:36] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: >initial assessment of the patient's condition until we can properly extract them. Unless you
have objections."

[9:37] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= "Though, I will be clearing with their government before i enact this plan."

[9:37] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: =/\=No Captain. That is a good idea. I need to get down there as soon as possible to assess thier
condition.=/\=

[9:37] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -enters engineering looking for Shantal-

[9:37] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri catches nothing more of importance as she surfs various channels... quickly
switching off a few channels that show Teddy bears in decidedly un-teddy bear-like positions.*

[9:38] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *subconciously plays with her hair, curling it around her index finger while beeping away on
her console*

[9:38] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *She also seems to be blushing profusely, trying to shake the thoughts away from her
head.*

[9:38] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel looked at Veeri and her console.*  "Lieutenant, I believe such study should be left for
xenoanthropologists."

[9:39] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri only blushes deeper upon hearing the vulcan's voice.* "Umh, I know, Lieutenant, I was just switching to the channels and came across these."

[9:39] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: -looks over catching Decia entering-  Vwelcome, luv.  Somethin' vwe can 'elp vwith?

[9:39] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Lieutenant. What you're doing is helpful, but I'd appreciate if you focused on your normal
duties.

[9:40] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Keep monitoring for anyhting usual from their communication channels, but shelve the
entertainment for later. ... What'st he human saying... Too much television gives you brain damage?"

[9:40] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel glanced at Joy.  One might even come to the conclusion that it was in approval.*

[9:41] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "... though to be fair I did used to watch a bit too many action Vids during a deep space
deployment."

[9:41] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "I am monitoring their comms channels, Ma'am Captain, Lieutenant... but their television
has given us insight into their culture and history, as you saw, so it might be useful!" *She smiles at Joy, >

[9:42] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Still a bit blushy, before looking to Varel and quickly averting her gaze, blush
deepening again.*

[9:42] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Lieutenant. Focus."

[9:43] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -smiles some- Only if you have a moment...I am ...unable to stop feeling we are most serpant
like today

[9:44] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Yes, Captain." *Veeri switches off the teddy bear TV, just as they were advertising "I
can't believe it's not Nugaa"

[9:44] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, and captain?"

[9:44] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Have you discerned any additional information on their culture?  Is there any mention of encounters
with the Dark?"

[9:45] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: *folds her arms, watching Veeri.*

[9:45] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Well, about their culture... most their practices are the same as ours, but they -love-
hugs

[9:45] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "They hug instead of handshakes."

[9:46] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "And... I've seen or heard nothing of the Dark, or any entity that might be similar to
her yet, I am sorry, Captain."

[9:46] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'Rika] -knocks on Spencer's door=

[9:46] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Hugs?

[9:46] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri nodnods to Jon.* "Hugs."

[9:46] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] You do not like hugs Jonathan?

[9:46] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -puts a finger up... about to speak, before lowering it, and throwing it back up- "Goood...
good job, that's actually useful." -she nods at Varel- "Focus on unusual communications. Perhaps even..."

[9:46] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Sery, Could you help me filter these scans?"

[9:46] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she looks up.-- "Hey red, come on in."

[9:47] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Sery] You caught it too..didnt you?

[9:47] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "That dictatorship. Figure out what's going on with that in the post-war Error. Also, see if
you can find anything else on ettiquette. We can watch fun Vidcomm later."

[9:47] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "That is what I am trying to do, Captain, but they seem to be very... federation-y in
their general mannerisms."

[9:47] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [KRika] -bounces in and sighs- I was sent to tell you..decontainmenation is prepped and ready to
go...oh!

[9:47] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "'Federation-y.'" *she repeated flatly.*

[9:47] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'rika] and Syndra has been a big help and is a fast learner

[9:48] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Something, at lease"

[9:48] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Still... Did you see anything about Smiling?"

[9:48] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Sery] Did you know...it was asnwered?

[9:48] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I mean if they're ursine, they've likely got some impressive teeth."

[9:48] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri nodnods to Joy.* "Yes. Their etiquette is pretty much what you would expect from
us. I will focus on the dictatorship more... Oh, and they're a parlamentary republic, I forgot to say."

[9:49] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] Oh yeah.thtis gonna be sme smile

[9:49] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she nods and smiles-- "That is terific. We are sort of waiting on the shuttles to get prepped.
I'm glad that Syndra is doing so well."

[9:49] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -says softly= Forgive the reference....

[9:49] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I do not know what it is, so I where not aware it was answered, or if it was the answer I
saw."

[9:50] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I don't want ot accidentally smile and have that be percieved a threat. You know us Trill, we
like to do that."

[9:50] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Sery] the answer was one second as well...and a one econd chrnoton burst

[9:50] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "They smile when laughing, Captain."

[9:50] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [repost] [Decia] -smiles some- Only if you have a moment...I am ...unable to stop feeling we are
most serpant like today

[9:50] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "I think you should be fine if you keep to not showing your teeth without laughing."

[9:51] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Alright, Can you help me with these calculations?"

[9:51] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she smiles at K'Rika-- "So are you and Syndra getting along pretty well?"

[9:51] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K"Rika] SHe is...still shy...but getting better with people...um..-hints at wanting to ask
something-

[9:52] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K"rika] Oh! Yes...we have settled things...we just see Syndra and KRika now..not our people any
longer

[9:52] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: Alvways got time fer ju, luv. -Shantal gives Decia her undivided attention-

[9:52] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks back at Alice and smiles.*

[9:52] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -her look is one of concern- Perhaps we should just leave once we retrieve our people

[9:52] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: "That is wonderful . I was worried since you got off to such a rough start."

[9:53] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "OH... Oh good. Let's finish prep for the diplomatic team, and we'll get down there. I'm
heading down to sickbay."

[9:53] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'Rika] -nods- ...old hateds are ...hard to lose..she was fa rmor einvolved than I..but..she just
needed a big sister i think

[9:53] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Captain, I believe you wished to contact their government before going to the shuttle."

[9:53] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri switches the history channels back on.* "I will try to find out more about the
dictatorship in the meantime."

[9:53] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: -tone shifts as the walk to a more private area-  What is your reasoning?

[9:53] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Sery] Send them please Xyl

[9:54] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she nods and smiles-- "Yeah, well she couldn't have asked for a better big sister."

[9:54] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -softly as they walk- We are very close, as you know to the shoreline of the Black sea...and
this sytm has been...shrouded by the debris...for a very long time

[9:54] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] as such..they are ...untouched

[9:54] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "They are on my console" *smiles lightly and does a normal send procedure as she woudl done
it had sery not been the ships controller, entering Sery as the reciver*

[9:55] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: And your are concerned we will bring unwatned attention thier way...

[9:55] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Sery] Xyl?

[9:55] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Yes?"

[9:55] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri continues watching the history channel, throwing a quick glance to Varel, very
worried she has disappointed her again on the inside.*

[9:55] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Ah. Yes. Remember what I said about focus, Lieutenant. Remember. Focus until our initial task
is done."

[9:56] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Pull them up on comms if you could."

[9:56] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: {Decia] We may have already ...accomplished this..if we have not..the longer we are here..the
chances will grow the eye of darkness will turn their way

[9:56] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Sery] There is something out there allright

[9:56] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Please display on my console"

[9:56] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel glanced over at Xyl's console with that.*

[9:57] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: 'But you wanted me to focus on the dictatorship?" *Veeri looks confused, but tries to
contact the teddy bear governmnent.*

[9:57] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: Sery begins to show the displcement pattern to Xyl on her console-

[9:57] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Or pull up the comms for the captain, more like, she wouldn't talk again, bad Veeri.*

[9:57] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'Rika] Um..speaking of being a good girl who may need to be rewarded?

[9:58] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: I already mentioned similar on the bridge, not certain what the captain thought of it and how to
proceed.

[9:58] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Yelling at other people to focus helps me focus. Pull them up then return to your task. You're
doing fine."

[9:59] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] We must warn them to ...stop seeing beyond their system for now

[9:59] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: -looks at her and sighs-  Would they listen and should we discourage them?

[10:00] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -looks sad a moment- No...and no...-she sighs- I...i feel like we are watching the intial
spoilage of Elysium

[10:01] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she glances up toward K'Rika-- "Were you looking for a reward?"

[10:01] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: -shakes her head-  They came up looking and searching for answers.

[10:01] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'Rika] Well...not a cookie...um..might you need a nurse for the away mission down there?

[10:02] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: Other that they shared an alliance with once, if Citadel archives are accurate.

[10:02] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Sighs, accidentally pulling some strains of hair as she stops playing with her bangs and
begins in detail try to analyze what she sees*

[10:02] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks down at his console.* Captain?

[10:02] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -blinks- They are of the old alliance? But....how?

[10:02] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I will likely be taking a nurse with me. Why were you looking to go with me?"

[10:02] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: If so..somethign happened for them to vanish for millions of years, and forget what they once were..

[10:02] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Yea, Lieutenant?"

[10:03] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia]...the shroud

[10:03] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: Seems a good guess.

[10:03] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'Rika] -is majorly holding back a squeal of delight- ...maybe? is this a possbility?

[10:03] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -closes her eyes- ..such destruction...

[10:04] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: I think what we are seeing is a race almost wiped out entirely...but instead..slowly over time has
reforged itself...

[10:04] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: "It is possile. i would have to check with the captain I think."

[10:04] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri is still trying to bring up a channel to the teddies.*

[10:04] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'Rika] -cluthces her talons together- Please..pleasepleaseplease

[10:05] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I will ask."

[10:05] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *mumbles to herself* "I been away from work for to long, this is plain silly"

[10:05] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: We are being 'pinged' by defense satellites as we pass them.

[10:05] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'Rika] -wraps her arms round her , her tails whipping around joyfully like a bull whip-
Ohthankyouthankyou!

[10:05] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "What kind of defense satellites are we talking about?"\

[10:06] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: My guts tell me they are going to find themselves drawn into the conflict here soon or later and I am
of the midset for leaving them a trail to follow back to the Citadel

[10:06] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Well just don't get your hopes up to high until I ask. okay?"

[10:07] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Um... Captain? While they're still not picking up... I found something worrying."

[10:07] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: Leaving the choice up to them..to find out the answers of thier past and what role they want to play
moving forward..or to simply remain as they have and we can all hope that igornace is truly, bliss.

[10:07] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: =/\=Doctor Spencer to Captain Dalun=/\=

[10:07] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'Rika] -nodnods and lets her go trying to be all professional now- Yes..yes..right..I rpromise no
hopes high

[10:07] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Hold that thought." =^= Yes, Doctor?

[10:08] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -smiles warmly- such an admirable people if true...and i would bet they would find us
again..all on their own

[10:08] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: =/\=I have a question. i have a young aspiring medical officer that would like to request
permision to join me on my away mission to the planet. I told K'rika I would ask permission.=/\=

[10:08] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: Either way...the Alliance needs details..it inevitable will be them that shoulder this burden of the
discovered of thier form allies...

[10:09] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [KRika] -is bouncing up and down in giddy anticipation, her talons clsped over her hearts-

[10:09] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= "Oh... Interesting. Doctor, hold that thought please." -turning back to Veeri- "Alright,
what's up."

[10:10] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -smiles- I would bet on them ... to rise again after such a blow...truly remarkable

[10:10] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Captain... could you please come over and confirm this?" *She points to her screen.*
"This appears to be an image of their idea of the... ultimate evil. Like our Dant, or the human Devil..."

[10:10] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "They call her the Queen of the Dead."

[10:11] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera[ -looks over and gasps some-

[10:11] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -looks over looking very... concerned, then approaches, trying to make out if it would be
familiar-

[10:11] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel raised a brow.*

[10:11] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *It would be a female travynei.*

[10:11] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: -smiles and nods- Does my heart good to see as well.  Also who better to stand with them, than those
they sacrifced to help protect.

[10:12] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -shakes her head- I did not know of this, we can not abandon them now

[10:12] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: Decia] One way or another...we must help

[10:12] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: What?!

[10:12] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Oh! Fantastic... Great.. Just great..."

[10:12] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] -dryly- so much for eing untouched it seems

[10:12] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: being*

[10:12] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "I... I'm sorry, Captain."

[10:13] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: Agreed, though you fears and warrented..and it would not due to try and force anything on them.
Though if I am reading them correctly, they will want to know

[10:13] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "It might be wise to tell K'rika the bad news..."

[10:13] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Unless... Well..."

[10:13] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: and become involved to help...

[10:13] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "This could lend much credence to the theory that the Bursali were part of the war two million years
ago."

[10:13] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Poor K'rika... she probably would have loved to go."

[10:13] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] and to do so unquestionablty a they did for our people

[10:14] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "We warn them... and bring her anyway. 'So... yea...'"

[10:14] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Would that be wise, Captain?"

[10:14] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "I would not advise this course of action, Captain."

[10:14] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] -softly- we have found...a long forgotten ally...

[10:14] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Okay. Keep at it, try ot raise them. I have a thought..."

[10:15] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri keeps trying to raise the bears, then nods at Ynera with a small smile.*
"Forgotten, but not gone."

[10:15] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: -nods- We need to have faith that forces out there will no let our new friend be comsumed in this
conflict, and I for one believe we all will endure.

[10:15] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "If we were to arrive with K'rika during our first contact, it would put our future relations in
jeopardy.  I would advise waiting until initial contact has already been made before revealing her...

[10:15] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -steps away, hand on her chin, before tapping her badge again- =^= "Doctor. This...
particulary mission. We've come accross a new development."

[10:15] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: presence aboard this vessel."

[10:16] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -looks at Shantal- I envy them though...to rediscover their past..all while seeing this all
forr the first time

[10:16] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri nodnods to Varel.*

[10:16] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: =/\=What sort of new development?=/\=

[10:16] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: *waves at Varel with annoyance, clearly in decision mode*

[10:16] [DOIC2] Shantal@Arnimane: They have no rediscovered it quite yet, thought I figure they soon will -smiles-

[10:16] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'Rika] -stops mid bounce and listens-

[10:17] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] I do believe I am very humbled and honored to get to meet such a people

[10:17] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= "Well... the Travynei are part of the Bursali's mythology. And in a way that makes taking
K'Rika a good idea on the first contact mission."

[10:18] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: *A BAD IDEA

[10:18] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: (( Joy was not being sarcastic, I am just an imbecile.

[10:19] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she look at K'Rika sympathetically-- =/\=I understand captain. If they have her people as part
of thier mythology that could make for a rather awkward first contact if we brought ehr along.=/\=

[10:19] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'Rika] -her face slips some and she sighs-

[10:19] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= "I know you're there listening, honey. I'm sorry. I wanted you along... But... Know this.
You'll be a part of this. You're going to be part of showing that the Federation welcomes all."

[10:20] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= "And that there is such a thing as Redemption."

[10:20] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she moves over toward K'Rika and gives her a hug--

[10:20] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= "And Forgiveness. And ... the other stuff that comes with that."

[10:21] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: "You know we are going to have to do some first contact missions in the Milky Way wre your people
don't have such a reputation."

[10:21] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'Rika] -hugs her and after a slight sniffle she draws a breath- SO....where do you need me up
here Doctor?

[10:21] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= "If anything... once we've tested the waters and seen that we can get away with it... I
want you on the medical shuttle."

[10:21] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -doing her best nurse mode voice-

[10:23] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] Poor K'Rik

[10:23] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] Poor K'Rika

[10:23] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Well unless something happens up here you wont be needed until I get th epatients up here. When
that happens we will all be pretty busy. Until then you can either find sme busy work or maybe take ..

[10:23] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: a break or something."

[10:23] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri nodnods while trying to get the bears on the line.* "I know... it's so not fair
to her." *She pouts a bit.*

[10:23] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [K'Rika] I will find Syndra and I can go over triage methids with her! -smiles brightly- we will
not let you down!

[10:24] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= ... you stopped listening to me didn't you.

[10:24] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [rol pls xyl

[10:24] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: =/\=Sorry captain, what were you saying?=/\=

[10:24] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "A first contact away mission is not a field trip.  It should be limited to essential personnel for the
completion of the mission as it is."

[10:25] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= I was saying, I'm going to test the waters. If it seems like we can get away with it, I
want to have her ready to come on the medical shuttle."

[10:25] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "I know, Lieutenant... but still, I can sympathize with her."

[10:26] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -K'Rika heads out to find Syndra..the pair move off to go over triage routines-

[10:29] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri tries to reach the teddies on another wavelength.*

[10:29] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= "But that is all. Carry on, we'll be leaving as soon as we get the goahead from the
surface."

[10:29] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] She has faced such before...K'rika is tough

[10:30] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "It's so sad, though. So many people are probably confusing her with something evil
because of her looks."

[10:30] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: She is.

[10:30] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: {Alice] smiles to Jon at that-

[10:30] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "She has faced such adversity on numerous occasions since our arrival in the Large Magellanic Cloud."

[10:30] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she smiles warmly aas k'Rika leaves. When she is out of sight she sighs.-- "poor kiddo. her
people left her with a tough reputation to live down."

[10:31] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I would save them all if I could... "

[10:31] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= "Captain to Exec."

[10:31] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she wonders who she is talking to--

[10:31] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Looks at Joy* "Dalun? It seems to be a quantumtemporal claoked ship matching Kzar
signatures between planet five and six"

[10:32] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel looked up at that.*  "Kzar?"

[10:32] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "... Damnit..."

[10:33] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Not a ship, its to small, sorry it is quite hard to identify the size"

[10:33] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri looks worriedly to them.* "Um... At least I know the Bursari most probably
aren't answering, they're too busy dealing with Outreach 3's landing... it just returned home."

[10:33] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: {Alice] Syndra's people?

[10:33] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: (Know why*)

[10:33] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [The Kzar p for reference  [  http://daedalusomega.proboards.com/thread/6648/lmc-species-contact-
kzar  ]

[10:33] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "It would only be logical that we would not be the only ones to detect such a far-reaching signal as
the one the Bursali  broadcast.."

[10:34] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Yes, Syndras people. getting a better reading on its size, it seems to be about the size of
a changing room in a butiqe, perhaps a probe, or a beacon"

[10:35] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "We knew this was coming."

[10:35] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I'

[10:36] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] We never did ascertin just where the Kzar terrortory was..perhaps we are getting close to
them out here

[10:36] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I'm not sure there was anything that could have been done to prevent it."

[10:36] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "It is an intriguing coincidence that a species we had a failed first contact with would be detected in
this instance."

[10:37] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *She looked at Joy.*

[10:37] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Relidia, I am tryign to patch you in to the signals it is transmiting over chronopath, see
if we can listen in?"

[10:37] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "The Kzar are deeply misguided. And clearly being manipulated."

[10:37] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Will do, Lieutenant." *She nods to Xylv, trying to crack the signal.*

[10:38] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] Mnipulated by who?

[10:38] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "The Darkness. At least I think so."

[10:38] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Tries to gain a good enough clean sample of the signal and sends it to Veeri*

[10:38] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] Um...didnt they say they dispised the Dark and its minsions..to the point of trying to
execute Syndra?

[10:38] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri would try to work with whatever she gets from the other trill.*

[10:38] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "While it is not beyodn hte dark to use them, They do fiercly hate the Dark"

[10:39] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Someone like the Dark can use even their enemies as a weapon."

[10:39] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Starnzkaptain Grutta was exceptionally receptive to us, it was the representative of their Party that
made matters difficult."

[10:39] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Just... YUou know what i mean. Their presence here is a potential issue regardless."

[10:40] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] The Kzar are an ugly race of hatred and deception

[10:40] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I do not find them ugly"

[10:40] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Indeed."  *Varel attempted to help get a better look at the Kzar object with some tactical scanning.*

[10:40] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "My point is this. Enemy of the Dark or not, the Dark benefits if they are our enemy as well
as thiers."

[10:41] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Do you see what i mean now?"

[10:41] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] I do not speak of their appeance nor of your ward Lieutenant

[10:41] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Or maybe they're the ones who have been deceived and attacked so many times, they have
had no choice but to turn themselves into what they fight.."

[10:41] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Ynera] I speak of their hearts

[10:41] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri tries to work on Xylv's signal.*

[10:41] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] -shakes her head- Yeah...because fascist gvernments are often just victims

[10:42] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "The governments are not.  The people living under them are."

[10:42] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] Yeah...sure

[10:42] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Lieutenant Varel is right... they probably like the idea no more than we do."

[10:42] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Or they have been brainwashed and abused into believing otherwise."

[10:42] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I'll make a parallel. Honestly, I feel we should still try to ... at least point them at the
right enemy. I just hope it doesn't take the devastation of their homeworld to put them on a more... >

[10:42] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel raised a brow at Alice.*

[10:43] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] SOrry but they are respsibile for their own government

[10:43] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: ammenable path like happened with the Cardassians."

[10:43] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "And I'll ask you to stow those thoughts, everyone. It is not our place to judge the
governments of others."

[10:43] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "An oppressive regime can make revolution-"  *She fell silent at Joy's order.*

[10:43] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I will update what we know of htem to include quantumtemporal cloaking. That is very
conserning"

[10:43] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: 'WEll... I suppose it is to an extent... But still. Prime Directive and all."

[10:44] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Yes captain.

[10:45] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] returns to her work

[10:46] [DOIC3] Spencer@Demoncherub: --senses nazis nearby--

[10:46] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Captain, I could probably force it out of its cloaked state for ease of examining it, but
it would reveal it to the people below, and I am not sure they are ready for it"

[10:46] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Alice] and it would let the Kar know we found it

[10:46] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: Kzar

[10:46] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Lieutenant Xylvarenn? The signal is a data dump... Routine scans, exceprts from
Bursari television..."

[10:46] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "The Kzar are a problem now, but leave it alone for now. Don't tip them. I want that probe
monitors and any other Kzar signatures reported immediately. Secondary task for monitoring Bursali culture."

[10:47] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Check to see what the extent of Bursali physical augmentation is. Prosthetics, cybernetics,
etc. I want to see how much of a target they could be."

[10:47] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Davidson] They are...monitoring the Bursali...like a duck blind?

[10:48] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "A... duck blind? What?"

[10:48] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Okay, Ma'am Captain, let me try and pull up what we have on their tech."

[10:48] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Scientific observation of species not ready for interaction with"

[10:48] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri tries to see what she had learned from various Teddy bear TV, while she nods at
Xylv.* "Oooh."

[10:49] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I'm surprised you havent' heard that term, Veeri. The Federation uses them as well. For
xenoanthropological monitoring."

[10:49] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Intriguing.  We should attempt to determine the length of time that the Kzar have been monitoring the
Bursali."

[10:49] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Davidson]  A duck bind..is what we use when researching non warp clutures and wish to be
undetected

[10:49] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Varel, if you can, see if you can determine that."

[10:50] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "I have heard it being called different names... My old captain just called it "Cutting
a hole in the ice"

[10:50] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "At very least, the Dark won't immediately know... It's not ideal, but I think I'm a small bit
more tolerant of these people here than anyone else.

[10:54] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *idly plays wiht her hair again*

[10:54] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel continued to try and help with scanning the Sneaky Sneaky.*

[10:56] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "By the by, status on the landing of Outreach 3?"

[10:56] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Landing has completed, they're being hailed as heroes... I will try to raise the
bursari again."

[10:56] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: 'As long as they're home safe..."

[10:57] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri does just that.* "They are, landing went off without a hitch, if news are to be
believed."

[11:01] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Captain, I have not been able to determine the exact amount of time the Kzar object has been in this
system, but their signals are all marked with identification codes.  The latest one indicates...

[11:01] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "The bursari have answered, Ma'am captain, putting them on."

[11:01] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: that it was the 19,467th transmission."

[11:01] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri opens the line with the teddy bears for Joy.*

[11:02] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: [Mission Control]: "This is mission control, reciving you loud and clear, Friendship one!
Over!"

[11:02] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri bounces happily at the name friendship one.*

[11:02] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -nods at Varel, then speaks- "There you are Mission control. I hope we didn't interrupt
anything."

[11:03] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: [Mission Control]: "Not at all Captain Joyus Dalun! We are working hard on the grand welcome
for you and Friendship one. This is a historic day for all of our people, Over"

[11:04] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Of course. We were considering upping the time table a bit for our visit. The conditions of
the system have caused some delays for the medical evacuation shuttle, but I wished push up the arrival of>

[11:05] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: >our diplomatic mission while bringing our chief medical officer along, to conduct a medical
evaluation before we bring them home."

[11:06] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: [Mission Control]: *Blinks, a little starteled* "Friendship one, mission control understands
your great consern for your brave friends, however there are certain thigns we really wish to have done >

[11:06] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: > prior to welcoming you, both in regards to safety, recording, media and politics, We still
need some time, please? .... Over?"

[11:07] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -looks around the room, taking a peek at whatever Veeri has on their TV signals.* "Don't
worry, we had no intention of crashing the party without your permission first. We will await your readiness.

[11:08] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "How quickly will you be ready, over?"

[11:08] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *On Veeri's TV channels, it was the news. Showing Outreach 3's crew being welcomed as
heroes, having flowers thrown at them, waving, kissing baby bears, all that.*

[11:09] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: [Mission Control]: "We are moving the stasis pods by high readynes medical airtransport to

[11:12] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Understood. I will comply. Please alert us if anything changes in their condition. We can, if
necessary, find a way to expedite the process from our side. Over."

[11:14] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: [Mission Control]: "Mission control acknowledged, Friendship one. Thank you. Our medical

[11:17] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Continues working on scanning the quantmtemporal cloaked object*

[11:18] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Thank you, Mission Control. As an aside however, I will note that some amateur astronomers
managed to contact us earlier."

[11:19] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: [Mission Control]: *clears their throat, smiling a little but tryign to remain professionl*

[11:20] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri smiles at the thought of the cute baby bears welcoming them.*

[11:20] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: > intrusion, they probably menat well but got cought in excitement... over!"

[11:21] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Oh it's fine. It was cute. I'm proud of them and their spirit and you should be too."

[11:21] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Over."

[11:21] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri beams at the Captain, happy to hear that someone agrees with her.*

[11:21] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: [Mission Control]: "Oh, Yes we are, I mean... their entusiasm is a great reflection of the
people! Over"

[11:22] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel looked over at Veeri, waiting for the call to conclude.*

[11:23] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri sees Varel looking at her, and looks back at her console quickly, trying not to
react.*

[11:25] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Very good. Still, until this is concluded, we should probably prevent any other attempts.
We'll talk to you soon. And Tell our friends on Outreach 3 that we're happy they made it home safe."

[11:26] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: [Mission Control]: "Affirmative, Will forward it to Outreach 3. Lookign forward to see you
on the surface, Over"

[11:27] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "That is all, Mission control. We'll let you get back to work. Over."

[11:28] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: [Mission Control]: *beams* "Undersood, See you soon Friendship one, Over and out!"

[11:28] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: [Mission Control]: *Line cuts*

[11:28] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *As soon as the line cuts, Veeri smiles widely, before looking to Varel, remembering her earlier look.*

[11:29] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *As soon as the call ended she spoke.*  "Lieutenant Relidia, would it be possible for you to track the
transmissions from the Kzar object to its intended target?"

[11:29] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "I can try, Lieutenant."

[11:29] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Well... guess we're going to be letting them set up thier party. We can't just barge in there
even if it's for a good reason..."

[11:29] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri turns to start beeping and booping various buttons to try.*

[11:30] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Would be worth it, though, Ma'am Captain!"

[11:30] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "The diplomatic repercussions would not be what I would categorise as 'worth it.'"

[11:31] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I think you misinterpretted each other. But no... diplomacy demands that we let them throw
their party."

[11:31] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "As much as I want our people back."

[11:34] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Umh... it's actually a temporal signal, Ma'am Lieutenant... Not in my field of
specialization at all. What I can tell you is that the signal wasn't directed modulated, and it was carried by >

[11:34] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Chronotons... And it hasn't broadcasted actively for some time."

[11:34] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "It is fortunate, then, that we do have an expert in the field of temporal science."

[11:35] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "if we knew how often it sends that kidn of messages, we could perhaps gain a better guess
ofhow logn it been htere"

[11:35] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "SO they've been inactively monitoring. Probably observing progress on Bursali culture."

[11:36] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri nods at Joy.*

[11:36] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Indeed, I was of the same thought Lieutenant Xylvarenn."

[11:37] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Hence my concerns on cybernetic advancement for them. You see Lieutenant, the Kzar seem to
take... issue with cybernetics."

[11:37] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Well... I could monitor it. See if the activity picks up."

[11:37] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Dalun, are you not mixing the Kzar up with the Coln, ma'am"

[11:38] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Indeed, the Kzar have shown no hostility toward cybernetics during our encounter."

[11:40] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Um... well, the Bursali do have some cybernetics... very basic, rudimentary things
yet."

[11:42] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Er...

[11:42] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "... Yea. Okay, I might have mixed those two up yes."

[11:42] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "The relevance is still there in case the Coln do show up."

[11:43] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "...Very well, Captain."

[11:43] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "What. YOu haven't mixed anything like that up before?"

[11:44] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Looks between the two worriedly, as if she's about to watch a parent hit their child.*

[11:45] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Perhaps it would be best to move on to more relevant topics."

[11:45] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Still... I'm drawn to what we can do to fix our relations with the Kzar. Syndra's a problem
for them, but if we could make friends with Cardassia, we can with them..."

[11:46] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Beeps console*

[11:46] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "It seemed like their naval forces where more open, and it was their internal police units
who where fanatic"

[11:47] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "The Starnzkaptain did not appear particularly pleased with the Party's rule over their society."

[11:49] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Maybe we could capitalize on that internal rift somehow? With the proper diplomats?"

[11:49] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Difficult without violating the prime directive. They woudl need to come to Us."

[11:49] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "It is possible, I am sure the alliance leaders are considering it, it would be a msitake
not to"

[11:51] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "I just hope we don't somehow mess it up with the Bursari... an ancient race like that,
so strong-willed... and we can be the first to welcome them back!"

[11:52] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "We should probably be careful with the word "Back "

[11:53] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Well... Back... probably. And I doubt the Captain will inform them of the possibility
immediately?"

[11:54] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I agree with Shantal's assessment that we should let them figure that out themslves."

[11:54] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri nodnods at Joy.*

[11:56] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Part of me hope that they where not the civilization taht built the sphere"

[11:57] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "My guss is we will find out sooner or later..."

[11:57] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "The sins of our forebears are not ours, Xylvarenn.":

[11:57] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Yes"

[11:58] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel gave Joy a glance at 'forebears.'*

[11:58] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Let's focus on just making a good impression on them! We know at least that they do
not act so differently from us, they just hug more!"

[11:58] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "W...what?" *Blushes and looks at Joy* "I di not mena it like that, ma'am"

[12:00] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "It's not what I meant either, Xyl. I'm talking about Redemption."

[12:00] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Their past sins, if any, are not thiers."

[12:02] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Of course not, I do not think the yare a joined species. But the technology of the sphere
is so... out there, their planet suffered massive gological movements. To in that case gone from being so >

[12:02] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: > advanced to be... set back so far. with everythign whiped away, its a very strange
thought"

[12:04] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Yea...  I'm going to have to ruminate."

[12:04] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Eight hours to they are ready to recive us, so a decent ammount of tiem to ruminate I would
say" *smiles softly*

[12:06] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "If we call up beta shift now, the away teams will have time to rest and prepare."

[12:06] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I'll be in my office."

[12:06] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "It's almost time too..."

[12:06] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Finish out if you want, otherwise call up beta."

[12:07] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *follows joy with her eyes* "Alright"

[12:07] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "We are at a standstill until they invite you to the surface, so I will call them up,
would give the essential personnel time to rest."

[12:08] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Proceed."

[12:08] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri presses a button, and starts speaking in her usual pleasant comms voice.*

[12:08] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -quickly steps inside and starts unzipping before plopping down on the couch.-

[12:09] [DOIC] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: =^= "Beta watch, please report in for duty, and bear in mind, you're witnessing and
making history." *She says with a smile in her voice.*

[12:09] [DOIC5] Alton@the5of435: *he glanced up at this, not knowing that his weapons cleaning was being considered historic*

[12:10] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon shakes his head.*

[12:10] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel stared at Veeri disapprovingly.*

[12:11] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri lowered her eyes at Varel's gaze, staring into her shoes until relief came.*

[12:11] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -pulls over a padd- "Computer, briefings on all encountered LMC species. I think I need a
referesher in all this excitement."

[12:11] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Your commentary is unnecessary in shipwide broadcasts."

[12:12] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: Computer: "Confirm, ALL species?"

[12:12] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Yes, all species. I can read fast."

[12:12] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Quietly and sadly.* "Captain Chier said it adds a pleasant personal touch and it
raises crew morale a bit."

[12:12] [DOIC5] Alton@the5of435: *he softy spoke to his rifle* Wow Linda.. I didn't know me cleaning you would ever be considered
historic.

[12:13] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: Computer: *Beeps happily and loads the few thousend pages logn briefing of what was
requested*

[12:13] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "You no longer serve under that commanding officer."

[12:13] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *gets up and walks to the ready room door, buzzing the door buzzer*

[12:13] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -starts going through it, somewhat quickly, then stopping to read what looks important or
relevant before starting to nod off after finishing the Kzar and Coln briefings-

[12:14] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Captain Dalun liked it last time..." *She says, still not looking up.*

[12:14] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -doesn't answer at first-

[12:14] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Patiently wiats*

[12:15] [DOIC5] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Linda shines in historic anticipation*

[12:15] [DOIC] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: ** Across the ship, Beta watch comes to take their stations **

[12:15] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "It remains unnecessary."  *She turned and swiftly walked into the lift as her relief arrived.*

[12:16] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri quickly makes her way towards the lift, trying not to look at Varel, eyes glued
to her boots.*

[12:17] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -coughs and stirrs enough to mutter- =^= "C'mon.." -nods back off-

[12:17] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Deck two," *she requested.*

[12:17] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: **The turbolift goes turbo swooosh**

[12:18] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel gazed forward, paying Veeri no mind.*

[12:18] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *continues waiting, beeping on ehr wrist thing*

[12:19] [DOIC3] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: **The turbolift suddenly stops between levels!**

[12:19] [DOIC5] Alton@the5of435: *Linda's shine wasn't right..he passed it through another cleaning process*

[12:19] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri lets out a yelp, and instinctively moves towards Varel, as if looking for
protection.*

[12:19] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^="Wha.. what what happened. I'm awake."

[12:20] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: *Varel arched a brow.*  "Computer, why has the turbolift stopped?" *she inquired, ignoring Veeri's
approach.*

[12:21] [DOIC3] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: Computer: "Unknown, please stand by"

[12:21] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: =/\= "Lieutenant Varel to engineering."

[12:21] [DOIC4] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: Engineer: =^= "Engineering here"

[12:22] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri is breathing deeply, in and out, in and out, and fighting the urge to grasp onto
Varel's arm, clearly needing some reassurance.*

[12:23] [DOIC5] Alton@the5of435: *he slowly peeled his eyes off the rifle and glanced around.. his alton senses were telling him a
report was iminent*

[12:23] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= Alright. I'm awake. If you're going to come in, do it.

[12:23] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: =/\= "Turbolift one has halted between decks, we require assistance," *she said calmly, glancing at
Veeri.*

[12:23] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *walks in to the reayd room with a meek smile* "Hello"

[12:24] [DOIC4] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: Engineer: =^= "We noted, seems to jsut be some subpar OCDN conduits that where not to happy,
luckily it was now nad not during combat they decided to flip it. we are working on it"

[12:24] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri looks to Varel worriedly, but says nothing.*

[12:25] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: =/\= "Very well.  Do you have an estimation on how long this will take?"

[12:25] [DOIC4] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: Engineer: =^= "Give us fifteen and it should be runnign again"

[12:25] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: =/\= "Understood."  *She tapped her badge off.*

[12:25] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -looks disoriented, like someone who just nodded off- "I'm awake... yes?"

[12:26] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri sighs. A long time... could be worse... still too long.* "I'msorry." *She
quickly blurts out.*

[12:26] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I... think so? Why would I be in your dreams?"

[12:27] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: "For what are you apologising, Lieutenant?"  *She took out her PADD and started going through security
reports.*

[12:27] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "MybehaviourIhaveissueswithtightspaces." *She manages to say that incerdibly quickly.*

[12:28] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: *Varel raised a brow again.*  "If you would prefer I will stand to the side to permit you more space."

[12:29] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: *She headed over to stand by the turbolift wall.*

[12:29] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "... I mean... What'

[12:29] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -stands up- "What can I help you with?"

[12:30] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Nonono, your presence here is... good. It would be more frightening if I was alone."

[12:30] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I just wished to see you where okey, I can come by some other time"

[12:30] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri seems to be torn between her desire to follow, and trying not to intrude on the
vulcan too much.* "I'm sorry." *She breathes deeply.* "Incident when I was very little."

[12:31] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I'm fine. Don't worry about it.

[12:31] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: "Such incidents often cause such aversions in later life.  However, there is no rational basis for such
a fear in this instance.  We are in no immediate danger and will be released from our present...

[12:32] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Alright" *Tilts her head*

[12:32] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "I know, I know... could I please stand closer to you again? Please?"

[12:33] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: *Her glacial eyes flickered up from her PADD briefly and then lowered to the screen again.*  "If it
will prevent you from an episode, you may do so."

[12:34] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Thank you." *She moves a bit closer to the vulcan, sitting down on the floor, and
leaning her head towards Varel's leg, stopping herself quickly when she realizes what she's doing, and resting her >

[12:34] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Head on the wall.*

[12:35] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -had by now pulls off her jacket and dropped it on the couch. It almost looked she was
intending to nap there in the office- "Why? Was  it the forgetfulness episode?"

[12:35] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: *Varel glanced down at the seated trill expressionlessly before returning to her security reports.*

[12:36] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Forgetfullness? No? We have not spoken for a while, and the last time has been... special.
It was no individual episode?"

[12:37] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri sighs, closing her eyes, and breathing deeply again.* "I'msorry."

[12:37] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: "You have already expressed this sentiment.  Its repetition is unnecessary."

[12:37] [DOIC3] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: **The turbolift resumes movement**

[12:38] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "I'v always thought my memory was flawless. I suppose it isn't. Then again this... is an out
of the ordinary situation. But i'm not worried. SO I was refreshing myself." -She motions with her padd-

[12:39] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: *Varel glanced up.*  "The incident has concluded, you may stand now."

[12:39] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri sighs in relief and stands up.* "Yes, I know, I just don't want my... emotions
to be a burden on you."

[12:39] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Our memories are good, the older we get mote it becomes clear we are not computers however.
I can not recall exact numbers from... few hundred years ago,, but the situations are clear. I think its >

[12:40] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: > jsut proof we are biological sentients, and not mass storage drives for the hosts"

[12:40] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: *Varel raised a brow.*  "I have not been effected by your emotional reaction."

[12:40] [DOIC3] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: **The turboswoosher arives at deck 2**

[12:41] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: *Varel stepped out and headed for the mess hall without a word.*

[12:41] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -shrugs- "I suppose... Just... man. I ready a couple hundred pages centered on our most
relevant encounters and just..... fell asleep."

[12:42] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri lags behind a bit, chewing on her lip obsessively, before heading into the mess
hall as well, and replicating herself some peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.*

[12:42] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Are you not sleeping well?"

[12:42] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: *Varel stepped up to the replicator.*  "Black tea."

[12:45] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri sits down one of the smaller tables in the corner, glancing to Varel for a
moment, before sighing and digging into her food, without much of an appetite.*

[12:45] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: *She took her tea and headed for her usual corner.*

[12:46] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "More like I sleep as though I'm dead."

[12:46] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "So very well."

[12:46] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "That is mostly good I guess" *Smiles*

[12:48] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri's shoulders drooped as Varel sat right opposite of her, in clear view. She let
out a silent whine as she looked down at her food and continued eating.*

[12:49] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Is something wrong on your side? Are you okay?"

[12:49] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Smiles meekly* "Lets not go there, I will manage"

[12:50] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: *She didn't appear to notice Veeri, taking out her PADD again and loading up KWC's single player
campaign.*

[12:52] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "Don't do that. You can talk to me.

[12:52] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri finishes her food and recycles the plate, walking away so briskly that she's
almot jogging.*

[12:53] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *giggles shyly* "You would fall asleep if I even began. Do you want some tea?"

[12:56] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "No. That's okay. I feel like liquor would be better but that won't do."

[12:56] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Liquor hmm? Excited for the cermony?"

[12:59] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "More worried."

[12:59] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Understandeble, I think you will do fine"

[1:00] [DOIC5] Alton@the5of435: *Alton was flicking through his PADD glancing at various items in the meantime*

[1:03] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "That's not what i'm worried about.I"

[1:03] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: "It's the Big picture."

[1:03] [DOIC2] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *nods, listening to the other Trill*
