Pilgrim 12/12

[8:55] [DOIC] Jillian@liorexus: * Tonight's episode has no captain's log or grand introduction; it opens on an outside shot of the Pilgrim docked at the Citadel station before phasing inside...*

[8:56] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris idly kicks his feet as he waits by Kol's biobed in sickbay.* "In hindsight, maybe this wasn't the smartest idea."

[8:57] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *The various members of the Pilgrim crew were going about the Citadel on their temporary leave.  Many had situated themselves in the lounge.*

[8:57] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] *The trill doctor shot the pair a glare from across the room.*  "No, you think?"

[8:58] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Aria sits by herself intently looking at a padd*

[8:58] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] *He groaned, clutching at his head as he lay dramatically on the biobed.*  "Do you both have to talk so loudly?"

[8:59] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li is in his quarters, sitting on a mat with his eyes closed.*

[8:59] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris tentatively rubs Kol's head in solidarity, lowering his voice.* "Sorry."

[9:00] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] "It was a simple order; no intimate telepathic contact until I had this whole thing situated, but no, you couldn't help yourselves, could you?!"

[9:01] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *A familiar face arrived at Aria's table, carrying a big mug in her hand.*

[9:02] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris shoots the Trill doctor a rare look that could probably kill someone with no constitution and holds a finger up to his mouth, a gesture suggesting that he keep his voice down.*

[9:02] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Heya!  Sitting by yourself again?"

[9:02] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He then goes back to attentively trying to rub Kol's headache away.*

[9:03] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Aria looks up and smiles* Yeah, Just browsing some off duty cloths.

[9:03] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] *He drew in a deep breath and released it, looking over at Serris.*  "Yeah... he's probably right..." *he managed a slight smirk regardless.*

[9:03] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: I was thinking maybe I should try some um Orion cloths sometime maybe.

[9:03] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *There was a chime at Li's door.*

[9:04] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li opens his eyes.* Enter.

[9:04] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Orion clothes?"  *Her brows rose as she took a seat at Aria's table.*  "What, you mean like those... uh," *She motioned to her chest.*

[9:04] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "We've all done stupid things when we're attracted to someone, he's just cranky."

[9:04] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Sits in the captain chair place and holds the skeleton crew watch for their time docked, not becourse it was on her schedule to do so, she had allowed whoever was ment to sit the time to go and>

[9:04] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: > enjoy themselves*

[9:05] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill stepped in then, giving a small smile.*  "Hey... not interrupting, am I?"

[9:05] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Computer, lower light level above biobed 3 by 40% and activate blue light filter."

[9:06] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: *Kol sighed contentedly as the lights dimmed.*  "That's much better... and I think 'cranky' is just his default setting."

[9:06] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: No...was just meditating.

[9:06] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: [Gayle] *The half-trill eyeballed Ilya from her station, having drawn the short straw today.*

[9:07] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Well uh thats the problem im trying to find some that arent um that... exposing.

[9:07] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill gave a small nod.*  "I can wait until you're done if you want?"

[9:08] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I miss Doctor McCoy. He was a nice hologram."

[9:08] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "And unlike Doctor Sovek, he got my hormone blocker dosage right."

[9:08] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] *She considered this for a moment.*  "What if you got one and modded it?  You know, put a cute top under it so you're not flashing side and underboob left and right."

[9:08] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: But I mean I am Orion and why not embrace my heritage sometimes.

[9:08] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *browses a padd, studying something*

[9:09] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: I'll think of something I dont really mind showing off my midriff.

[9:09] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: No it's fine.

[9:10] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Maybe next emergency you can tell him that," *he chuckled faintly.*

[9:11] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I'm glad you can find some kind of humor in this. I just feel really guilty." *His ears droop slightly.*

[9:11] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Uh, alright," *she said with another slight smile, glancing out the window for a moment.*  "I was wondering if you wanted to head to the Citadel?"

[9:12] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Sure.

[9:13] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Well, whatever it is I'm sure you'd rock it.  Can I see?"  *she looked at the PADD.*

[9:14] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] *He shook his head.*  "I don't exactly remember telling you 'no,' Serris.  I got myself into this."  *He closed his eyes.*

[9:15] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I still feel responsible."

[9:15] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *hands her the padd of her current pick*

[9:15] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: *There was a chime as Ilya received a message on her PADD.*

[9:15] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *arches an eyebrow and reads her message*

[9:16] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Neat," *Jill said, looking at him.*  "Uh, shall we?"

[9:16] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She took the PADD, her eyes widening a little.*  "Oh... wow.  That's actually pretty beautiful, for something with so little up top..."

[9:17] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: That's kind of like one I um wore awhile back on a mission once. I just took soe stuff off like the bandolieer.

[9:17] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods and hops off the mat, grabbing a PADD.*

[9:17] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Well, we can share the blame I guess."

[9:18] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: *A message seemed to get through the automatic filter.*  "Meet hot singles in your quadrant TODAY!  Sign up for Spacr!"

[9:19] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I'm no doctor, but I imagine that one of your neurotransmitter levels is heavily imbalanced."

[9:19] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "They let you wear that for a mission?  Wow... perks of rank, I guess," *she chuckled and handed it back.*

[9:19] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Grumples to herself* "Yea right, people should do the galaxy a bloody service by popping the cap of themselves in sharpest way possible if they are that detesteble lowlife" *Frowns*

[9:20] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill turned toward the door.*  "Way less people that know us there, too..."

[9:20] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Um well I was playing as the XO's slave so we could sneak up on some blackmarket stuff it was a slave auction he was selling me.

[9:21] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "There's never been a problem with it until I met you," *he frowned a little.*

[9:22] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: So it kind of fit. *chuckled*

[9:22] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] *He came back to stand at the foot of the biobed.*  "With good reason."  *He looked between the two.*

[9:22] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods and heads out of his quarters, towards the turbolift.*

[9:23] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] *Her eyes went wide.*  "Those are the kinds of missions you guys go on?"

[9:23] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "If I had to guess, it might be because there's some fundamental difference in the telepathic centers of our brain and how they process information."

[9:23] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Sometimes.

[9:23] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Am I getting warmer?" *He turns to Vant.*

[9:23] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: You havent been on board too long right?

[9:24] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] "You're close, yes."  *He looked at Kol then.*  "Lieutenant.  You have a redundant neural receptor."

[9:25] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill followed after him, hitting the turbolift and calling out the deck number for the transporter.  A few crewmembers eyed them coolly as they walked by together.*

[9:25] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Judging from the delivery, I'm guessing that's some kind of abnormality?"

[9:25] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "... or am I the only thing that's ever saturated him with enough sensory input to have it kick on?"

[9:25] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She shook her head.*  "I just graduated from the Academy this year.  The Pilgrim's my first real assignment."

[9:26] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Every once in awhile we get crazy stuff. One time I even had the Doctor bleach my skin to look all humany for a mission in the mirror universe. Met my counterpart it was interesting.

[9:26] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant]  "Both, actually.  All Betazoids have a certain number of neural receptors, you see.  Lieutenant Kol happens to have a mutation that gave him an extra one, it would appear, and when he...

[9:27] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: encountered your brain waves, it kicked into action where it had never been used before.  He tried to move a boulder with a baby arm."

[9:27] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li steps out and heads for the transporter.*

[9:28] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "I'm a -mutant- now?"

[9:28] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "That's a strong word."

[9:29] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: I got that idea after my orionness messed up a mission.

[9:29] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Jeez... I mean, I caught a few episodes of your show before I came on board, but that sounds -intense.-"

[9:29] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris pauses.* "So... what can be done?"

[9:29] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "I have a mutation, doesn't that make me a mutant?"

[9:29] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] *He sighed.*  "No."

[9:30] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li steps in and heads up to the transporter pad.*

[9:30] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] "Every organism has a certain amount of deviations and mutations, it's no different from someone being double jointed."

[9:30] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "You're just double brained. Sort of. That's inaccurate." *He admonishes himself.*

[9:31] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: It can be.

[9:31] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill came to stand next to him, nodding at the transporter operator.*  "Um, Citadel please.  Energise."  *The two dematerialised in a shower of sparkled.*

[9:32] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *...And reappeared on the Citadel's transporter pad.*

[9:32] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Well, now I'm curious.  What other kinds of missions have you been on?"  *She sipped her mug.*  "You have a favourite one?"

[9:33] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He chuckled until he made himself wince.*  "Ow.  Well, double receptored?"  *He smirked at Serris, then looked back at the doctor.*  "But what he said.  What can we do about this?"

[9:34] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] *He sucked on his cheek for a moment.*  "We have a few options.  I can give you suppressants for whenever you so with to... engage with Lieutenant Zital, but it won't be the same experience."

[9:35] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Anything interesting on the ACCI?"

[9:36] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Well the one that my being me messed up temporal prime directive and all. Hmm favorite...

[9:36] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: [Gayle] "Uh, something about a planet being put back together?  I can have the details sent to your PADD if you want to read them."  *She shrugged.*

[9:37] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Okay, that's option one."

[9:37] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Im pretty proud of everything we did during the iconian war. We made a real difference there, and with the undine attack. But really I like exploring the most.

[9:37] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Briliant"

[9:38] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] *He nodded.*  "Option two is... work out the baby arm.  It may even make you a stronger telepath, in the long run, but there will be a great deal of discomfort involved.  I wouldn't recommend..

[9:38] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: that."

[9:39] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill gave Li a small smile as they appeared on the pad.*  "Did you have somewhere you wanted to see?"

[9:40] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Reads her PADD and mutters* "Of course the bloody adagio is involved"

[9:40] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] *She nodded.*  "I was still in the Academy when that was happening... I still remember how they had us all taking cover during the Battle of Sol.  That's one of the reasons I was so excited..

[9:40] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: come aboard the Pilgrim, really."

[9:40] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li shakes his head.*

[9:40] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "And I assume option three is some invasive surgery to just flat out remove it."

[9:42] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] *He shook his head.*  "I could do that, sure, but I do not recommend it at all.  It would be risking brain damage."

[9:43] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Are there any other documented instances of this redundant telepathic receptor mutation, or is this the first one?"

[9:43] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *smiles at that* We did good work then. But im not much of a fighter. Id rather fix things and make first contact.

[9:44] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: "Uh... okay."  *She peered at Quiet Li for a moment before she said.*  "Want to just get something to eat then?"

[9:45] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Uh sure. *Li looks over at the bar.* I have to take care of something first.

[9:46] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] "There are, but I haven't been able to find any cases where so much strain has been placed on the receptor, save for one that doesn't appear to apply to this case."

[9:47] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "So, the options are either medication, or potentially risk seizures with abnormal neurochemical imbalances?"

[9:48] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill nodded at Li.*  "Um, right.  I'll be waiting I guess?"

[9:48] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li walks over with a PADD in his hand.*

[9:48] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Hey, that's where my team comes in," *she smiled before looking up at Li approaching.*

[9:49] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "That's... freaking perfect."

[9:49] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *looks up at him aprehensively*

[9:49] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li looks down at her sadly and sets the PADD down in front of her that she gave him, filled out.*

[9:49] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] *He eyed the two.*  "That looks to be the case for the time being.  I'll see what more I can do, if there's any forms of treatments that can let us go halfway - blocking part of it so that he..

[9:50] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Oh um thanks Li.

[9:50] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *squirrels away the padd*

[9:50] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: can grow strong enough that he doesn't need a supressant any longer, but that's all I can offer for the time being.  It's going to take time."

[9:51] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He looks at Kol with an uncertain expression on his face.*

[9:51] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: You're ummm welcome...I didn't want to leave it hanging. *Li looks down at the floor.*

[9:51] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant]  "In the meantime, -listen to me- when I say you need to abstain."

[9:51] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] *He cringed and looked back at Serris.*

[9:51] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] *She studied Li curiously, looking between the two.*

[9:54] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Well, I can't speak for Kol, but it was nice to be able to communicate that way again after so long away from home."

[9:54] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Keeps reading the reports*

[9:54] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Aria nods avoiding eye contact unsure what to say*

[9:54] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "It was hard to say no."

[9:54] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He nodded slowly.*  "I concur.  And you said it could make me a stronger telepath, too?"  *He looked at the doctor.*

[9:56] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] "...If you did so very, very carefully.  And with my guidance."

[9:56] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I've already had one person lurking in the shadows during the act, so I suppose that's just par for the course at this point." *He says this completely seriously.*

[9:57] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She cleared her throat awkwardly.*

[9:57] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: *Both men looked at Serris with that.*

[9:57] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "You try having a cyborg bodyguard with a cloaking device and see what that does for your expectation of privacy."

[9:57] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods and looks away.* I'll see you next shift.

[9:57] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He folds his arms, huffing.*

[9:58] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] "...I didn't mean that I was going to stand over you and monitor every hip thrust," *he deadpanned.*

[9:58] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Yeah. Have a good one Li.

[9:58] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li walks off.*

[9:58] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] *He busted up laughing at that one, then cringed again and held his head.*  "Ow, damn it."

[9:59] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Tell that to Commander Frame."

[9:59] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He rubs Kol's head attentively.*

[10:00] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill shifted her weight from one foot to the next as Li approached.*  "Hey... everything okay?"

[10:00] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods, doing his best to hold his emotions in tight.* It's fine.

[10:01] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *looks over the padd being protective of this one and angling it so no one else can see its screen*

[10:01] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] "Really, the less detail I have into that part, the better.  But what I meant was, we can develop something that may ease the Lieutenant into this at a more manageable rate... provided you're..

[10:02] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: both still going to be pursuing this route."

[10:02] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] *She frowned softly, watching him go.*  "Was, um... that was him, right?"

[10:03] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill frowned softly as she stepped closer to touch Li's shoulder.*  "We can go back to the ship if you want..." *she murmured, seeing the look on his face.*

[10:04] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Cortical monitor paired with a dermal neurosuppressant patch that administers when certain chemical levels exceed normal expectations?"

[10:04] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li shakes his head.* You wanted to come here.

[10:04] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Non-invasive and right to the point."

[10:04] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -leans over the rail and hugs her from behind- Gotcha!

[10:04] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] *He looked at Serris again, raising a brow.*  "That was going to be my suggestion.  You've done your homework."

[10:05] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Is hugged* "You are not as sneaky as you think"

[10:05] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: I was not tryng to be sneaky

[10:05] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Good, As that would been embarrassing"

[10:05] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: I always want you to see me coming...-grins- Makes it more of a challenge

[10:06] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I'm no doctor, but I am a genius." *He pauses.* "Contrary to how my decision-making process may portray that intellect." *He looks over at Kol.* "So, what do you think?"

[10:07] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Uhuh. Not enjoying the bloody leave?"

[10:07] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: "Yeah, but..."  *She frowned even deeper.*  "Not if you're not feeling up to it.  We can stay in if you'd rather."

[10:07] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Ilya why must i always have to drag you off ship /every/ leave??

[10:08] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "I can not in good conciosness answer that question right now"

[10:08] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] *He shifted a bit so that he would be sitting up better on the biobed.*  "Well... if it's something that we can make go away, why not?  It would be like exercise for my... what did you call it?"

[10:08] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles and shakes her head- No dodging this time...

[10:08] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: I'm fine.

[10:08] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] "Redundant neural receptor."

[10:09] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Lets go ...I can find someone to cover for you...it is time to enjoy the nog of the egg

[10:09] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Yeah!  I mean, there's risk, but it sounds like there's a lot of reward, too."

[10:09] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Oh, Im not scheduled to be here, At the end of my shift I offered to sit another, as I had nothing better to do"

[10:10] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -scowls some- so you do not wish to join me?

[10:10] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Fine, but not off the ship"

[10:10] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris giggles, flushing violet, but then realizes that he might not have meant that and goes back to blankface, clearing his throat.*

[10:10] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *presses a button to get some replacement and gets up*

[10:11] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -sighs- Ilya...-chuckles- One might think you are embaressed to be seen with me in public

[10:11] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "I will tell you, when we are off the bridge"

[10:12] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill nodded.*  "You want to get something at the lounge then?  Or, uh, we could see if one of the holodecks is empty."

[10:12] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -rolls her eyes and nods- As you wish...we are still going to drink the nog

[10:12] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Let's head to the lounge first.

[10:12] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] *He just grinned at Serris.*

[10:12] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: There is something we need to discuss anyways

[10:13] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] "Great... well, this'll be a fun first major assignment.  Didn't think I'd be facilitating telepathic mating rituals when I was studying medicine..."

[10:13] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *does the little formal transfer or responcebility to her relief* "Lets go then"

[10:13] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Just be thankful you weren't the chief medical officer before they got my birth control right."

[10:13] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Shall we?

[10:14] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *walks in to the turbolift and waits*

[10:14] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill came to stand next to him at the bar.*  "So... what should we get?"

[10:16] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: I dunno, what do you want?

[10:16] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -follows her into the turbolift scopping up her little grouch and pinning her to the back of the lift- So -grins playfully  leaning close like a looming cobra- You wanted to tell me something?

[10:17] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Yeah that was him.

[10:17] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] "...I read that file, yes."  *He drew in a breath.*  "I'll be certain to... not let that happen again."

[10:17] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Remember -- hormone blockers, not hormone facilitators."

[10:18] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Resisst causing a large fight in the turbolfit that results in her defeat and material damage to the lift* "Yea, I can naswer your questions now" *she smirks*

[10:18] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris looks over at Kol.* "Feel up to getting lunch?"

[10:18] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] *She cringed, then glanced over as she saw Li and Jill heading for the bar.*  "And that girl he's with..?"

[10:18] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -gris seeing her little grouch is holding back- Sooo why will you not help me cheer up Aria?

[10:18] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *nods and shrugs* Don't worry about it.

[10:19] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] "I'd rather not be the doctor responsible for the first accidental H'Tarran-Betazoid hybrid," *he said dryly.*  "You two can go now... but I want a promise that you'll abstain until I can get..

[10:20] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: you set up.  Do -not- make me have to beam in and administer anti-seizure medication when you two are in the throes of passion."

[10:20] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I promise."

[10:20] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  "I swear, doctor."

[10:21] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill considered this for a moment.*  "Ever had pasta?"

[10:21] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Not that I can remember.

[10:22] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "If she wishes to go to the bloody citadel and folley around like a poodle on some nilly willy dashbang. That is her bloody choise. We should not tally after here like a chasing puppy lost for the >

[10:22] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *Her eyes narrowed a little at the pair.*  "You're better off without a guy who'd flaunt his mistress around so soon after the fact like that, anyway."

[10:22] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: "Really?  Oh... there's this kind, fettucini alfredo, it's to die for!"

[10:22] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -closes her eyes and bits her bottom lip as she listens to this, still holding off the floor pinned to the back wall of the lift-

[10:23] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: > affection of our master if they decide to go to the dodgiest places as soon as we hit first best spacedive. Ill be here for her if she keeps herself on the ship"

[10:23] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods.* I'll have one of that, then.

[10:23] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Well when you are officially divorced then she isnt your mistress. *aria said quietly*

[10:24] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill smiled softly at him, leaning over the counter.*  "Two plates of fettucini alfredo, please.  Extra parmesan."

[10:24] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Now, come on, let's go try some alien food on the station."

[10:24] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He slid off the biobed with a last sheepish smile at Vant.*  "Sorry again, doctor..."

[10:25] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris' disposition seems to change completely from eccentric to positively giddy and ravenous when the subject of food comes up.*

[10:25] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -opens her eyes- you do understand one...half of that did not make any sense to me...Grouchy slang doesnt always come through with me and you know this....Two...it is in the girl code and the BFF code

[10:25] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: we have to go....and ...what the heck is a dashbang??

[10:25] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Vant] *He gave a dismissive wave.*  "Just go already...  I'll be in contact when I have something for you."

[10:26] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris hooks arms with Kol.* "Okayseeyouthenbyeeeeee." *He then blueberry zooms towards the nearest turbolift.*

[10:26] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *As the plates arrived, Jill picked hers up and motioned to a table nearby.*  "Over there?"

[10:26] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She sighed.*  "Maybe not any more, but it's still pretty shameless.  Especially since he saw you in here already."

[10:27] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He screeches to a halt and pivots on his heel, hopefully with the Betazoid still attached.*

[10:27] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li shaeks his head and grabs his plate, heading out.*

[10:27] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Does a mock new york accent* "Well a dashbang is propperly spoken lingiestics to place an accurate term for going form place to plase to try to run from your issues trough various means"

[10:27] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He reaches up and taps the control.* "Deck four."

[10:27] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Aria shrugs and burries her nose in her clothing selection padd an says quietly* Hopefully they are happy together.

[10:27] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] *He let Serris take his arm, giving a laugh as he was dragged along by the eager blueberry.*

[10:27] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "To dash from blace to plac,e trying to bang your sorrows away"

[10:27] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -shakes her head knowing she is being led down the 'rabbit hole' of Ilya explanations- Look..then why not just that?

[10:28] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: just say that*

[10:28] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill looked at Li curiously, then quickly followed after him.*

[10:28] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I am STARVING."

[10:28] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "You're a better woman than me, then... I'd be a vengeful bitch if someone pulled that..."

[10:29] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "I was not aware you where lignusitically handicaped. And if there a blooming word to put meaning to a full sentense, why use it, we are not skeeving politicans who gets paid for speaking lots of>

[10:29] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: > fancy words while sayign jack shit"

[10:29] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  "You seem to be in a constant ravenous state..." *he smirked.*

[10:29] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: - a large man and a horta enter the lounge and head for the bar. The big enlisted Delta is singing 'The Hanging Tree' happily-

[10:30] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Well, being a ball of hormones with an inefficient digestive system will do that to you."

[10:30] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li places his pasta on the table and sits down.*

[10:30] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -snarls playfully- It is not a handicap when one's mate begins speaking in obscure slangs...so far removed from standard she may as well be talking in tongues!

[10:30] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Being bitter just hurts you in the long run.

[10:31] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill trailed after Li as they made their way to a more secluded part of the Citadel, sinking into the chair next to him.*  "Haven't been here before, think they just opened it up?"

[10:32] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He nodded at that.*  "I'm not complaining.  The hormones seem to serve you well."

[10:32] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Its the bloody propper english. Not the little failed contaminated butchered dodgy bastard outcome of the worlds most despiceble, degenerate vagabons being shiped of to where no one wanted them to >

[10:33] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *His face contorts in amused confusion.* "Computer, halt turbolift." *He then turns to Kol.* "What are you implying?"

[10:33] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Maybe? There have always been a lot of unexplored areas.

[10:33] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: > bugger all as for what the world cared. And while one have to be stark mad to admit those degenrates did not do some briliant stuffs, their epidimy of rotten bollock of degenerative lingusitics was>

[10:33] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She sighed.*  "I know... I -really- know.  Maybe not for the same reasons, but you're right all the same."

[10:33] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: > not one of em!

[10:33] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Now you wait..it is not the proper usage of the language it is a almost dead slang! Get snippy all you want you are...oh my god you are stalling!

[10:33] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: You are stalling

[10:34] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: I think im gonna try it. Then drinks and appetizers what do you think?

[10:34] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Im not faffing, and im telling the truth"

[10:34] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] *He twitched another smirk.*  "Only that they make you very... intense when you know what you want.  I'm surprised Vant didn't have to treat me for a broken hip."

[10:35] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -blinks- Faffing?? you just made that up!! -accuses-

[10:35] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Try what?"  *She tilted her head to the side.*

[10:35] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris' face practically turns red-violet as he quickly turns to face the door again.* "Computer, resume."

[10:35] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: The outfit.

[10:36] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Computer, Define "Faffing" from the earth language English, Subcategory British empire english"

[10:36] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Oh!  Right!"  *She smiled at her.*  "Well, I can see plenty of people in the lounge who'd probably be -very- appreciative of that costume change."

[10:36] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *A pause hangs for a moment before Serris speaks again.* "I, too, am impressed with your durability."

[10:36] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Oh my God.Ilya...that is like 7 subsections for the definition

[10:36] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Indeed, but it should be there for most of em"

[10:37] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: We didn't build it after all.

[10:37] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill nodded as she started to gather up some noodles on her fork.*  "It's certainly huge enough that we'll be exploring it for a while."

[10:37] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I'd have thought the disparity in muscle density would have led to more collateral damage."

[10:37] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: I'll be right back.

[10:37] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *The doors open on deck four. Serris continues down the hall, still hooked arm-in-arm with Kol.*

[10:37] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -laughs resting her forehead to hers- Really?? Like how would anyone even know this slang exsists?

[10:37] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: I swear you leanred this dialect just to annoy your parents

[10:37] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "You are grown up where the language we speak originate from"

[10:38] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Aria wanders off to go replicate the outfit and change*

[10:38] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: I was raised amongst humans

[10:38] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li starts to dig into the pasta.*

[10:38] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He couldn't help but give a big, stupid grin at that before they headed out of the lift.*  "You didn't go easy on me, did you?"

[10:38] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "And im sure it was in the old USA area, Where they could not speak propper english even if their lives depended on it"

[10:39] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She nodded, watching Aria go.*

[10:39] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: You know I was raised on a mining colony

[10:39] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Condolences on the colonies choise of english"

[10:39] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: and you.are.stalling!

[10:39] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *A blonde, bearded human male bumped into Aria's shoulder as she passed.*  "Watch it, lady!" *he glared at her.*

[10:39] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Or American, I should say"

[10:39] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Stalling

[10:39] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "You could sense my thoughts and everything I felt. Surely, you know the answer to that already."

[10:39] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: For a very long time.

[10:40] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Stalling what?"

[10:40] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Eventually wanders back in smiles walks up to the bar* Um two risan mai tais and a platter of um fried zuchini.

[10:40] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Our going over to the CItadel for drinks and maybedinner if you are good -smirks-

[10:40] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: That table over there when they are ready. *points at Ettore then wanders back to join her*

[10:41] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "I have no wish to go to that desolate spacedive"

[10:41] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Maybe I just wanted to further inflate my ego," *he smirked.*

[10:41] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "We're under doctor's orders, you know."

[10:41] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill sighed softly, leaning over against Li as they sat alone together.*

[10:42] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -her eyes go wide- The station is actually very lovely...its ancient tech far more advanced than ours....so you are being just ridiculous  about the dive part

[10:42] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Bartender] "Yes ma'am!"

[10:42] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: You have to start being social my little grouch

[10:42] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Did you want to explore later?

[10:42] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] *She looked up at Aria, beaming at her.*  "Welcome back."

[10:43] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Thanks. *smiles*

[10:43] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Well I am noticing one downside straight off the bat.

[10:43] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Not to engage in telepathy, nothing about stroking my ego."

[10:43] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Oh quiet to the contrary, The station is briliant, A marvel of engineering. Its the bloody skeevers that lurk there that gives it its status as a dive"

[10:43] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "You're cold all of a sudden?" *she giggled.*

[10:43] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -a variety of Deltas and officers and enlisted from the Sentinal and Adagio enter the lounge or mill about the main promende-

[10:44] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles- those are your shipmates and fleet mates

[10:44] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Sure!  Maybe we'll find something no one else has yet," *she chuckled.*

[10:44] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I'm already close to needing another dose of my hormone blockers, don't get me in the mood unless you're committed."

[10:44] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Exactly,  Irest my case"

[10:44] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Not to mention our new allies

[10:44] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Case reopened

[10:44] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He arches a brow at Kol in front of the transporter room door.*

[10:45] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Okay, then what topics -don't- get you in the mood?" *he teased as they made their way to the pad.*

[10:45] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Very well. Go on then"

[10:45] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Oh, you know... the Ark Royal incident that makes me want to stay under my bed forever, gymnastics, my hypertranswarp theory..."

[10:46] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: With you...

[10:46] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Exactly.

[10:46] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He steps onto the pad, nodding to the operator.* "Two to the Citadel."

[10:47] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Never mind that your hypertranswarp theory is what started this all in the first place..."

[10:47] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "We have some spledid holodecks on this bloody rotten excuse of a ship, cant we use that?"

[10:47] [DOIC4] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He's about to retort, but they're whisked away by the cerulean space glitter.*

[10:47] [DOIC4] Jillian@liorexus: *The two vanished in pillars of special effects.*

[10:48] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Exactly. *chuckles*

[10:49] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: As much as you hate the ship...one might think you would leap for a chance to be off of it

[10:49] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *As they materialize.* "... the only one who ever wanted to actually hear me out."

[10:49] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Who knows what's in here?

[10:49] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: and maybe I am not yet ready to go to a holodeck....being social is not me walking you to the gas chamber

[10:49] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *A tray of fried zucchini with a variety of dipping sauces, as well as the two mai tais.*

[10:49] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *arrived at Aria's table.*

[10:50] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Of course it is not. Your do not show that kind of mercy"

[10:50] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Just so long as we don't get lost.  Or in some bottomless pit that we can't be beamed out of..."

[10:50] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Smiles happily takes a long drink out of her drink they grabs some fried zuccini dips it and savors it*

[10:50] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks- No...i do not

[10:51] [DOIC5] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] *He frowned.*  "I remember.  I still don't understand why, truth be told.  It's a pretty brilliant theory."

[10:51] [DOIC5] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  "You'd think other theorists would be falling over themselves trying to chat you up."

[10:51] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *people watches some as she munches smirking when she sees Endel and Spot*

[10:52] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Do you think those exist?

[10:52] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Woulda be rather briliant thou, No protstops on spacedives with the shambolic disidents of the galaxy to forced to suffer the bloody mugs of. no overglorified science probe that is inadequte at >

[10:52] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She sipped her drink, raising her brows a little before sipping some more.*  "I don't think I've had a drink this strong since the Academy..."

[10:52] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "It's because they think it's impractical, and right now, I don't have anything to prove them wrong. Without a working navigation solution, it's worthless bordering on excessively dangerous."

[10:52] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: > everything. Bloody hell had I not liked so much when you chook me up against a turbolift wall and all I can think of is shagging, Id beg you for that gaschamber"

[10:52] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris walks towards the nearest restaurant he can see, picking up the pace.*

[10:52] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Some of the other new Pilgrim crew were milling about as well, chatting with each other and the other crews.*

[10:53] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris marches right up to the bar, blurring past Aria and Ettore.*

[10:53] [DOIC5] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He followed after Serris to the lounge that was just to the left of the transport site.*

[10:53] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He followed after Serris to the lounge that was just to the left of the transport site.*

[10:54] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles and nuzzles her nse to hers- Do not try and distract me'

[10:54] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill shrugged.*  "Nothing can be really bottomless, unless it opens up into the vacuum of space.  In which case.. yeah."  *She chuckled.*

[10:55] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Ey, If I was doing the porridge, would you I liberateed from cruel and unusual torture such as dive stops, but youd still visit me?"

[10:55] [DOIC3] Valkriss@Isis.: -a lovely young starfleet officer smiles as she seems to come out of no where to says softly to LI - Up the airy mountain...

[10:55] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris picks up a menu and eyes it with childlike wonder.*

[10:55] [DOIC3] Valkriss@Isis.: -an identical woman also a starfleet officer whispers to Jill-   Down the rushy glen,

[10:56] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He leaned ever so slightly to the side, able to read the menu over the blueberry's head.*

[10:56] [DOIC3] Valkriss@Isis.: they both smiles and say together to the pair- We dare n't go a–hunting,...for fear of little men

[10:56] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill blinked in surprise, looking over at the identical women.*  "Um... what?"

[10:57] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li looks over at them curiously, having not seen them come in.*

[10:57] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Does this look like a milkshake to you?" *He points at a relatively frozen-looking thing.*

[10:57] [DOIC3] Valkriss@Isis.: -they both step back and waggle a finger at the pair as she take eahc others hand and walk back towards the main promenade

[10:57] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  "I don't know... it doesn't -say- milkshake.  I don't even know what language that is."

[10:57] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Uhhhh...

[10:57] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill looked at Li, dumbfounded.*

[10:57] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "...Did you know them?"

[10:58] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Maybe the bartender is trying to get me drunk. *Aria chuckled jokeingly as she sipped hers some more*

[10:58] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Slyly tries to fold her arms around valkriss neck*

[10:59] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Could I get a... zachkalosinskaya?"

[10:59] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -sighs and smiles- What am I ever going to do with you?

[10:59] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Don't worry, I'll be here to fight off anyone who tries anything if you get sloppy," *she giggled.*

[11:00] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Shag me rotten?"

[11:00] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: No?

[11:00] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles- Nothing can stop the inevitable

[11:00] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: but i thought you woud like to learn some of the holiday tradiions first

[11:00] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Im born on earth, I know their little missereble traditions"

[11:01] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Bartender]  "Coming right up.  And for you?"  *He looked to Kol.*

[11:01] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: They are mone as well...this time of year

[11:01] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: The tree...the lights...the music...the happy

[11:01] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Just a glass of fruit punch."

[11:02] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "There's all kinds of people around here, I guess..." *Jill giggled nervously.*  "That was kind of unnerving though."

[11:02] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: Yup... you are off your trolley... no questions about it

[11:02] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: It was really weird.

[11:02] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles barring her fangs- Would you have me any other way?

[11:02] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *The bartender turned to fetch their orders, returning shortly thereafter with Kol's drink and Serris' experiment.*

[11:03] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Bonkers sure... of your trolley is perhaps a bit exesive?"

[11:03] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: and you keep this up..you are gonna be visited by three or more ghosts this year

[11:03] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Yeah..."  *She eyed her unfinished pasta and set it aside.*  "Hopefully we don't wander off somewhere, go insane and start taunting people with poetry?"

[11:04] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Oh that would look great on our records. Get sloppy drunk and then bar fight.

[11:04] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *chuckles*

[11:04] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris regards the frozen-looking drink in its glass, sticking a finger into the top of it and taking a taste.*

[11:04] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Ah, But do you not remember, No ghosts of my past, present or future that the raving mad pocket queen and her minions can throw after me"

[11:05] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li laughs and takes another bite to eat.*

[11:05] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Yeah... to have a chance of getting out of it, we'd need at least the XO in on it, too."

[11:05] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: If I do please knock me out.

[11:05] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -The Big man with the Horta leaves with a large stack of pizza boxes, the little horta shambles after him with two trays of drinks strapped to his back as they leave the lounge-

[11:05] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He eyeballed the drink.*  "That looks... uh.  Interesting?  How does it taste?"

[11:05] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -giggles some- They you are sure to turn all green and furry and try to steal christmas

[11:06] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Sure, Bloody waste of time anyways"

[11:06] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "That'll be a sight..."

[11:06] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "... Like tomato juice with the consistency of ice cream."

[11:07] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *She snickered.*  "I don't think I've ever knocked someone out before."

[11:07] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: It is not a waste of time...I think you will like your present this year

[11:07] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "...That sounds awful."

[11:07] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "It's not TERRIBLE, but it's not great."

[11:07] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris just downs the whole thing as quickly as possible.*

[11:07] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  "You can get something else, you know."

[11:07] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  "Or... that."

[11:07] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "In my house, we ate what we were given."

[11:08] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He sets the empty glass down and off to the side.*

[11:08] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: It's hard to imagine.

[11:08] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Yeah, mine too, but no one ever gave me tomato juice ice cream."

[11:08] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Sure we can do gifts, but lets ditch the tree, drinks, food, songs, decorations, hype, all of that can sod off. we do presents, everyone is cheerfull and we got a briliant cristmas"

[11:09] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "I think the closest I've come was taking on that Romulan hologram when the Tremar Vastaram's holodeck bugged out."

[11:09] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *chuckles at the thought of the three of them getting in a bar fight*

[11:09] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris looks back to the bartender.* "That kind of put a damper on my exploration for the day. Can I just get the biggest possible chocolate milkshake you have and a couple of ribeyes?"

[11:09] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Medium to medium-well, I'm not too picky."

[11:09] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Bartender] "...Chocolate and steak?"

[11:09] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Maybe they wouldnt even recognize me and throw me in the civilian lockup.

[11:10] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: That was legit scary.

[11:10] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "The dairy's a base, neutralizes my stomach acids so the enzymes from the meat more thoroughly since it sits longer in my stomach."

[11:10] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Heh, that could be our way of getting out of it.  'Don't court martial us, we're civilians tonight!'"

[11:10] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *thoroughly digest

[11:11] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "It's like some strange portion control."

[11:11] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I don't get hungry again as quickly."

[11:11] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Bartender] "Whatever you say, man..."  *He turned and went to get Serris' order.*

[11:11] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Hey, people get milkshakes with burgers all the time. It's just meat."

[11:11] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He folds his arms in protest.*

[11:12] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Don't let him get to you.  People have weird hangups about food combinations."

[11:12] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Im just a innocent dabo girl... *bat her eyelashes then laughs heartily*

[11:12] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Last time I was at the Citadel, everyone was freaking out about strawberry pizza.  It's not even that bad."

[11:12] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris tilts his head.* "The sugar would take down the acid, but I don't think I'd enjoy that combination of flavors -- especially with the seeds added to the texture."

[11:13] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *She nodded.*  "Really scary, since we didn't know if the safeties were enabled for it."

[11:13] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *She winced.*  "I can still remember seeing you blasted into that display..."

[11:14] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Nah, most people seem to think it was blasphemous.  But I think it was like your milkshake; not really something you'd usually order, but it wasn't HORRIBLE."

[11:14] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Hey, you do that one and you might even get out of civilian lockup!"  *She laughed.*

[11:15] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -thinks- Um...no...I need a tree...i love pretty lights...the drinks are deliscious and the food yummy..the songs make me smile...and the decorations are soo bright and happy withthe lights...

[11:15] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Hey...you fought 'em off.

[11:15] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *gives Valkris a deadpan look from her helplessly hanging position*

[11:15] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Everyone is still cheerful..we exchange presents and the holiday spirit soars and makes us all smile...

[11:16] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Maybe if it didn't have the seeds."

[11:16] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill nodded slowly.*  "Yeah... I still can't believe I did that, though," *she smiled softly.*

[11:16] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: I...love...christmas

[11:16] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "I don't think it had them, but it was a few months ago."

[11:17] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *The bartender returned with Serris' steaks and shake.  The latter was piled high with whipped cream and a cherry.*

[11:18] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "When I rule the galaxies, Starfleet intelligence has been summarily executed, the admirality hanged, Cardassia elimiated and some other minor details... Ill abolish christmas"

[11:18] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: You were very brave.

[11:18] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris places his mouth to the edge of the giant shake cup and sucks down half of it like a goddamned vacuum cleaner.*

[11:18] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -thinks on this- ....deal

[11:18] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He observed Serris' sucking skills with unveiled interest.*

[11:19] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Until the time our new Grouchy overlord rules us...Christmas remains....-smiles- you are going to look sooo adoreabel in your Santa hat!

[11:19] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He then puts the cup down and barehands the steak like a slice of pizza and starts tearing into it like a Klingon, probably shattering Kol's fantasy in the process.*

[11:19] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: adoreable*

[11:19] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Deathglares Valkriss* "No"

[11:19] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill pinkened softly.*  "Thank you..." *she smiled bashfully.*

[11:20] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -grins wolfishly- It has little jingle bells in its white puff ball!

[11:20] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He cringed slightly and took a sip of juice.*

[11:21] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Ill shove that jingle bell up your arse so far that you will be heare comming for sections away if you try that!"

[11:21] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks- It matches mine though

[11:21] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Hmm maybe we can even get a commendation for looking good while fighting. *chuckles*

[11:21] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "So... uh, this Frame guy.  You still haven't seen or heard from him?"

[11:22] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris has already finished one ribeye and has the other hovering in front of his mouth for the first bite. He pauses upon being addressed.*

[11:22] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Well, no, but last I checked, he's still assigned to the ship."

[11:22] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Except I don't really know how very well. I almost failed basic self defense at the academy.

[11:22] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "He's probably just following me with his cloaking device on."

[11:22] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Then you can learn to slapper walk and make a harmonic as you aproach!"

[11:22] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "We kind of had an argument."

[11:22] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He shrugs and resumes his horrifying food intake that's probably gotten some attention from spectators at this point.*

[11:22] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles and teasingly tempts- Come on....it even has your name on its front in red and green sparkles...

[11:23] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li eats more of the paste.*

[11:23] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "I am not ridiculing myself for this distastefull pathetic holiday"

[11:23] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "I wonder what they'd call a commendation like that.  Or what it'd be shaped like.  Maybe a nice ass in a pair of tight pants?"  *She giggled.*

[11:23] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: You can not escape the cuteness of christmas with me

[11:24] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Watch me"

[11:24] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *There were indeed a few eyes drawn to the sight.  A few people even stopped eating their own meals and pushed their plates away.*

[11:24] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  "I'm just wondering if he was... watching us."  *He cringed again.*

[11:25] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill leaned her cheek against his shoulder, evidently still not hungry.*

[11:25] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: ..even if it hurt my feelings eh?

[11:25] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Maybe the battle bunny award? *chuckles*

[11:25] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Not hungry?

[11:25] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris finishes the second steak and wipes his hands with a napkin, then daintily dabs around his mouth with another.*

[11:26] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Not really, but by all means finish yours."

[11:26] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Wouldn't be the first time."

[11:26] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *As if on cue, he then consumes the other half of the milkshake.*

[11:26] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Sighs* "Fine, Ill attend whatever stupid things you want to do for this detesteble holiday. but I am not dressing up, nor singing, dancing.. or anything else. but I will be there -just- for you

[11:26] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Ah, yes... my first medal, the coveted Battle Bunny.  My parents would have been so proud."  *She laughed.*

[11:27] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles and nuzzles her nose- You will not waltz with me?

[11:27] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Of course not. WE can ahve a christmas brawl, Ill offer that kind of dance"

[11:28] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -laughs- No christmas brawl for grinches who will not dance with me

[11:28] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Are you saying that fighting is not dancing?"

[11:28] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "I mean, if he asked first that would be one thing, but this strange silence is getting a little creepy.  I haven't even met the guy and he's probably seen me naked."

[11:29] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: This time of year...compared to a proper waltz....yes

[11:29] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Speaking of parents where were you raised?

[11:30] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods and keeps going.* It's good.

[11:30] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Comon, Fighting is real dancing, not some sissy arse shaking making them look like they ahave not shaged for their lives and are so desperate theyd throw a quid at first best offer"

[11:30] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles- You dont know what a waltz is....-teases her- do you?

[11:31] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Hey, if you knew he was there, that means he considers you a threat."

[11:31] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She didn't answer right away, taking a little sip of her drink.*  "I'm a colony brat.  Lived on Samteth Minor until the incident there.  You might not have heard of it."

[11:31] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Of course I know, Its what people who wants everyone else to absolutely lose all respect for them do, earning them the right of exchanging their rank prefix for Sissy for a full month"

[11:32] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Its a lovely..graceful dance...if done right with the right person...its heavanly

[11:32] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "I didn't sense him, but you said he had some kind of dampener.  And what do you mean, threat?  Like I'm going to try and kill you in the middle of screwing you?"

[11:33] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Stranger things have happened."

[11:33] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He shrugs.*

[11:33] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *shook her head*

[11:33] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Look, Ill admit I quiet despise dancing, but I can acknowledge some being less humiliating the nothers. Tango for example... Sure that you could perhaps do with some minimal level of self respect >

[11:33] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: > remaining, But waltz? No. that is personal integrity suicide"

[11:33] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "It's one of my favourites.  My mother took me to Italy a lot when I was a kid.  Roman ruins and all."

[11:34] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods.* Do you want to go there sometime?

[11:34] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Well... I think you would have sensed it if that was my intention," *he chuckled.*

[11:35] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -flinches some and slowly lets her down to the deck- ...I had no idea...of course

[11:35] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] *She fiddled with her straw.*  "Well, the colony started about a year before I was born, so we really got in on the ground floor.  It was good for about fifteen years, Samteth Minor was...

[11:35] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I'm roughly five times stronger and more durable than you, you'd really have to try."

[11:35] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He smirks.*

[11:36] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *grins and tries to passionately kiss Valkriss*

[11:36] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: really lush, almost perfect for human life.  Could've become something major if the Samteth Plague hadn't hit."

[11:37] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -returns the kiss passionately-

[11:37] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  "Dunno, maybe I'll use my neural baby arm to beat you up," *he grinned.*

[11:37] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill chuckled.*  "To Italy?  I mean, if we ever got some leave time while we were close enough to Earth, maybe..."

[11:38] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Doctor's orders." *He wags his finger.*

[11:38] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *frowns at that* Sorry.

[11:38] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Holds herself tightly against Valkriss as she keeps upp the kissing, being rather worked up from their flirting*

[11:39] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Fine... I'll just have to wait until I'm mentally ripped enough from the telepathic weightlifting."

[11:39] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -scoops up the smaller woman and forcefuly pins her back up against the wall of the lift as she continues the kiss after being antoginized by her flirting-

[11:40] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Sure.

[11:41] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She shook her head.*  "It's okay.  The plague... well, I'll spare you the gory details.  It's not the kind of story for a fun night."  *She shrugged and took another sip.*

[11:41] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Let's just say it's one of the reasons I decided to go into Starfleet as a security officer."

[11:42] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Gasps for air some as she is pinned against the wall, grining wide beofre resuming the kissing*

[11:42] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Just think of me as your coach."

[11:42] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Aria nods finishes her drink and motions for a refill*

[11:42] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill grinned.*  "I'd like that, actually.  We could see the ruins, tour the countryside... we get there at the right time and it'll be just gorgeous."

[11:43] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: I've never been.

[11:43] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -runs her fangs up and along her neck ridges nipping at them inbetween kiss as she catches her own breath before meeting her lip sonce more for a deepening kiss-

[11:43] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Is there anything else to do on this station than drink and eat?

[11:44] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "You've got some unorthodox methods then, coach," *he grinned.*

[11:45] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Well, there's holodecks, there's a few vendors that have opened up shop..."  *She shrugged.*

[11:45] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *shivers in delight, slightly losing track of what she is doing untill being reengaged in the kiss*

[11:46] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris leans on the bar, transfixed by Kol's gaze. A light violet blush creeps over his cheeks.* "If this line of dialogue keeps up, we're gonna break our promise."

[11:46] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "We'll have to apply for simultaneous leave time at some point then so I can show you."

[11:47] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -snarls deeply into their kiss, pressing close as she keeps her pinned to the wall of the lift-

[11:47] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  "I don't know whose head would explod first... mine or the doctor's."

[11:48] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Well, with you, it's more a matter of which head would explode first."

[11:48] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *That big, stupid grin appeared again.*

[11:48] [DOIC3] Valkriss@Isis.: -A young woman with her long red hair in a pony tail, wearing stylized roman armor augmented by what looks like Avynei pieces of armor, shield and a unique looking wepon walks towards the Avynei only

[11:48] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Hmm. Well do you have anything in articular in mind?

[11:48] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He grins back, sheepishly averting eye contact.*

[11:49] [DOIC3] Valkriss@Isis.: part of the Citadel with two Avynei warriors, talking to each other as they go bay-

[11:49] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: We could always see if they can play music here and start a bar dance party too. *chuckles*

[11:49] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Folds her legs around Valkriss waist and keeps agressively responding to the kisses*

[11:49] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -a drinking matchhas begun between some Adagio Deltas and Sentinel Deltas-

[11:50] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li looks up at the woman and the two warriors, nudging Jill.*

[11:50] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "I think I proved already that I can... hold out for the right moment."

[11:50] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Well, in that case, you'd better wait until the Love Doctor's filled your prescription."

[11:51] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He elbows Kol playfully.*

[11:51] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Ooh, maybe... OH.  Do you think they have a karaoke machine?!"

[11:51] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -lets her fingers flow into Ilay's hair pressing to her tightly as she continues their passionate kiss-

[11:51] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill blinked, picking her head up off of Li's shoulder and looking after the woman.*  "Huh?"

[11:52] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: If not we could replicate one.

[11:52] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He sighs blissfully.* "I'm not used to flirting being reciprocated. I'd made passes at Frame for a year and not once did he ever say anything back."

[11:52] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *looks around for a self serve replicator*

[11:52] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: I think I recognize her...from the Sentinel.

[11:52] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *tries to headbutt Valkriss inbetween the kisses prior to resuming the passioante agressive kissing*

[11:53] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -cups her head fiercely between her hands and drves her forehead into Ilya's to daze her enough to onc emore resume kissing-

[11:53] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: *The sound of the lift doors sliding open could be heard.*

[11:53] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Lets live on the wild side. *Walks to the replcator and beep boops away until shes set it for other than food momentarily*

[11:54] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: *The tall, colourless security officer was standing in the doorway, staring at the two expressionlessly.*

[11:54] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: [Sar] "...Commander.  Lieutenant."

[11:54] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Breaks the kiss and beyond death-glares whoever poor person had had the bad luck*

[11:55] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: We need some speakers. *beep boops* A control unit with memory and included songs *beeps* and I guess a mic and screen if someone wants to sing. *boops replicating the items one at a time to not

[11:55] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -rests her forehead to Ilya's panting almost ferally, yet a chuckle can be heard-....we forgot to say..hold

[11:55] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: overfill the small device*

[11:55] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "No shit"

[11:55] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She grinned and got up to stand next to Aria to help her carry the items as they were replicated.*  "Ohh, this is gonna be awesome..."

[11:56] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "You just needed to find the right person to flirt with, I guess," *he teased.*

[11:56] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -looks over her shoulder- Car is full....take the next one

[11:56] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles-

[11:56] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Among other things."

[11:56] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: [Sar]  *He stared at them blankly for another moment and then took a single step back.  They could see the Andorian, Teir, was there with him as well.*

[11:56] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Beep boops the replicator putting it back into standard mode when she was done* Yeah lets go for it.

[11:56] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: [Sar]  "We will wait for the next lift."

[11:56] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Correct"

[11:57] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Um where should we set it up?

[11:57] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] *He squinted at the Klingon and Cardassian.*  "...Maybe we should just walk."

[11:57] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -barks at the turbolift with a pasionate snarl- Resume to officer's quarters

[11:57] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: ...NOW!

[11:57] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: [Sar]  "That would---"  *Whatever he was about to say was cut off as the doors closed and the lift continued to speed along.*

[11:58] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Any news about Aria?"

[11:58] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Huh... I guess a bunch of ships are docking here now."

[11:58] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Maybe at the bar?  We should ask the bartender if it's cool, though."

[11:59] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -rests her forehead to Ilya's panting still- ...that was the idea to find out...before you distracted me

[11:59] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Not my fault she is cowering on the Citadel"

[11:59] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *nods and heads to the bar*

[12:00] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] *He grinned at Serris.*  "I'd love to hear what those other things are..."  *He glanced at Aria and Ettore and moved aside a little to make room for them.*

[12:00] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -snickers- She is not cowering if she is out in the open

[12:00] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: that is the opposite of cowering

[12:00] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *pauses for a moment closes her eyes and takes a deep breath attempting to channel her inner Orion* Hi can we set up some speakers and stuff up here to you know liven up the mood. Pleease? *Aria asked

[12:00] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: It's a popular station.

[12:00] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: batting her eyes smiling and leaning on the counter slightly*

[12:01] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris whispers some positively filthy things to Kol, so as not to disturb the other patrons.*

[12:01] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Bartender]  *He blinked, immediately breaking into a grin as the Orion showed him her attention.*  "Speakers..?  Yeah, of course!  I'm always telling them they need to pump some music in here."

[12:01] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Going to a dive is rather cowering"

[12:02] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -laughs- it is not a dive..just because Ilya declares it so

[12:02] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *His grin only got wider before he leaned in to tell Serris a few things that were definitely not appropriate for a game rated T for Teen.*

[12:03] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "It is a dive per nature, not per what some half lefthenant says"

[12:03] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "... I had no idea my legs commanded that much attention." *He seems like someone who's just had something revealed to them.*

[12:03] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: I disagree with your assumption of its nature miss grouch

[12:03] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: So she is then not cowering

[12:04] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  "That and what's attached to them..." *He eyeballed Serris' bubble butt.*

[12:04] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "It is a sleezy pub where random desperate peole for all over comes to sleaze away their loody time among skeevers and sleazebags. Id say thats a dive"

[12:04] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -laughs0 It is none of those things

[12:04] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Also kind of the only station around here that we have access to," *Jill smiled.*

[12:05] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: The Citadel is not Drozana station...that is a dive

[12:05] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Great!"  *She didn't wait for any time before she plopped the speaker she was carrying onto the bartop.*

[12:05] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "The Citadel is a briliant station, The people that come to the citadel thou, Makes Drozana seem clean and civilized"

[12:06] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Which is why it is popular. *Li sticks his tongue out.*

[12:06] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "... At this rate, we're gonna have a reputation for being untrustworthy."

[12:06] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: No..again I disgree..some of those are our friends and others fine starfleet officers

[12:06] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Thanks. *leans in and kisses him on the cheek then runs off to help Ettore*

[12:06] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: *The lift doors slid open on the specified deck, finally.*

[12:07] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "And even if you and Aria wals in to Drozana, it is still a dive" *waits for Valkriss to let her down so she can leave the lift*

[12:07] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Bartender]  *His cheeks lit up as he stared after the Orion like a teenaged boy who'd just seen his first flash of midriff.*

[12:07] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  "Whatever do you mean?" *he asked innocently.*

[12:07] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: sets her back down to the deck- Yes..we agree on Drozana...nothing can hep that..but that..is not the citadel

[12:08] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Yeah... I guess that still counts then," *she laughed, smiling at Li.*

[12:08] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "We just need one large venting of the citadel, and it would lose its status as the LMC dive, atleast untill more people come around"

[12:09] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: It does not need venting....it is fine as it is

[12:09] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She continued to carry the equipment over, the security officer surprisingly strong.*

[12:09] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: You are just being a brat tonight

[12:09] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *taps her chin with one outstretched finger* We should direct the sound toward the area between the tables so people can dance and it doesnt bother people who just want to eat.

[12:09] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Oh, you know exactly what I mean."

[12:10] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "You'd know more about that then I would, I'm just playing pack mule for you," *she chuckled.*

[12:10] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Tsk, Im beeing bloody honerst"

[12:10] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "We haven't done anything to violate Doctor Vant's trust yet.  We're just chatting..." *he grinned.*

[12:11] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li smiles back.* It's really mysterious.

[12:11] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Yet."

[12:11] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles and shkes her head- No you are being snarky to try and weasel out of going somewhere off the ship

[12:12] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Spooky, even," *she agreed.*  "But that's what we're here for, isn't it?  The mysterious and spooky?"

[12:12] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Not at all, Bring me somewhere worth going, and ill happily ditch this piece of junk"

[12:13] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *nods and begens tweaking the setup of the directional speakers then fires it up with some random happy pop song to see if it works*

[12:13] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "The future hasn't been written yet," *he shrugged.*  "At least not one that either of us can read."

[12:13] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: How will you ever know when you refuse to try ut a place with me?

[12:13] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Well...I'd prefer less spooky.

[12:13] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "You never ask me to go somewhere worthwhile"

[12:14] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles- because you usuall ...distract me

[12:14] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: usualy *

[12:14] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *The music began to play in the lounge, causing a few people to glance up.*

[12:15] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *Serris takes the loud music as a cue to whisk Kol out of the lounge.*

[12:15] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Ask me to go to lets say... A week of tropical survival training, just you and I... we can even bring Aria. And im on!"

[12:15] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He blinked in surprise as he was pulled away by the blueberry.*  "Didn't like that song?"

[12:15] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -laughs- Sure..miss il never step foot on Risa

[12:16] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "A place that is -real- and no people"

[12:16] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill nodded.*  "Just mysterious, then.  And there's plenty of that."

[12:16] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "People are the bloody cosmic waste product, And I prefere my spare time away from the garbage dump"

[12:16] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: People are a part of our lives grouchy...you will have to get used to that....and I like places like Risa...and Citadel...and Disneyland

[12:17] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: I like cute and adore adoreable

[12:17] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *A few people began to get up from their tables, some pairing up already.*

[12:17] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Bingo now we just adjust them so there are dead zones for people who dont want to partake and bingo that should work. *lays the mic and a controll padd for it on the counter*

[12:17] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "I like far from civilization, near empty, warm and chalanging"

[12:18] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: as do I....soemtimes

[12:18] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "I'm in a creative mood and felt more like going to write some history."

[12:18] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: I love fighting....sometimes...

[12:18] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: I love empty...sometimes

[12:18] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Jagoda] *He walked over to Ettore with a drink in hand, grinning at her.*  "Music, huh?  Good idea.  I like music, too," *he winked.*

[12:18] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Retrieves her drink heads the middle of the open inpromptou dance floor and begins drinking and dancing to the music*

[12:18] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: I had enough of spooky in the Choral Sea of Storms.

[12:19] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "...Everyone likes music, Jagoda."  *She followed Aria out onto the floor.*

[12:19] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Briliant, then we have three solid points to focus our together time around, and when we wish to do our own nuts and bolts. you cna go and chill with the degenerates of the universe, and I can go to>

[12:19] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He linked an arm with Serris as they headed out.*  "What did you have in mind?"

[12:19] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: > the holodeck, seems splendid"

[12:20] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Weight training."

[12:20] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles and reaches up to tenderly cup her cheek- Ilya...sometimes you will have to join me in the things I adore doing as well

[12:20] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Jagoda]  *His shoulders slumped a little as he looked around for someone else to talk to.*

[12:20] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Not just the part time things I share with you

[12:20] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Why?"

[12:21] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He grinned.*  "You think the Doctor's ready with that already?"

[12:21] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "Do we care?"

[12:21] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles- So share with each other and understand each other better...

[12:21] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  *He considered this.*

[12:21] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill nodded slowly.*  "That was... really weird, yeah.  But in hindsight, it was a pretty unforgettable experience at least."

[12:22] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol]  "Maybe if we just go slow, we won't even need an inhibitor..."

[12:22] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "That seems rubbish val, Relationships are aledgedly ment to be great stuffs and all. And if we have over five thigns we enjoy doing together we could rather easy keep our us-time based on things we >

[12:22] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: > both like, without having to torture eachother with the crap only one of us like and is a bloody nightmare to the other"

[12:22] [DOIC1] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: "And pick up the pace as needed."

[12:23] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Certainly.

[12:23] [DOIC5] Serris@Starboard_Nacelle: *He steps onto the transporter pad with Kol.*

[12:23] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She smiled widely at Aria as she bumped to the music, more people joining them now.*

[12:24] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *beams and dances with her*

[12:24] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -softy- Ilya....relationship also ...evolve, the couple learns new things togther and from each other...or they stagnant.

[12:24] [DOIC5] Jillian@liorexus: [Kol] "Well, that goes without saying..."  *He nodded at the operator.*  "Two to the Pilgrim.  Energise."

[12:24] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Right. Im sure it is and all. But just like we do not need to learn by exepreience not to bathe in hydrochlorineacid together, There are otherthigns we could skilp"

[12:25] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -watches her for a moment- ...of course

[12:26] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *dances happily with various people enjoying herself and cutting loose*

[12:26] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "I know you are not all to cheerioh giddy about flightsims, and im not going to force you to join me for those"

[12:28] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Ettore was laughing and drinking even as she danced.*  "This was a great idea, Aria!"

[12:29] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *There was a tap on Aria's shoulder.*

[12:31] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill looked up at him then.*  "Seems like a lifetime ago, though."

[12:31] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "As for the bloody stupid christmas, Ill be there if it means that much to you, Becourse I love you, seriously. But Im not going to make a fool of myself"

[12:31] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Aria paused and turned to look at who was tapping her*

[12:31] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: It kinda does, doesn't it.

[12:32] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *There was a dark-haired trill male standing behind her, a green stripe on his uniform.  He offered a half smirk.*  "Mind if I join you?"

[12:33] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Heck, even the stuff that happened earlier this year seems like..."  *She shook her head.*  "Like it was almost a dream, and we've only just woken up."

[12:34] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Of course

[12:35] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Genuinely smiles*

[12:35] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Not at all. *Aria smiled and began dancing with him*

[12:35] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -returns a slip of a smile-

[12:36] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Soooooo?"

[12:36] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *The trill delta grinned then, joining her.  He didn't touch her, however; he would merely dance as close as she and the music permitted.*

[12:36] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Yeah.

[12:37] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Woo!  Get some!" *She laughed, clearly enjoying the effects of her drink already.*

[12:38] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -cringes a little- ....um..-looks over her shoulder towards their cabin and thenback to her- are you sure you dont wanna go to the um....citadive..err citadel?

[12:39] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "I am sure that -I- do not want to go there, but if it really means a ton to you we can go to the bloody dime... but only for a short while!"

[12:40] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill scooted a little closer to lean her cheek on his shoulder again, closing her eyes.*

[12:40] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill scooted a little closer to lean her cheek on his shoulder again, closing her eyes.*

[12:40] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -bites her bottom lip- right...so we go there..and not right back to the cabin..right?

[12:40] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "What is wrong?"

[12:41] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li wraps an arm around her waist as he starts digging into her uneaten pasta.*

[12:41] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Her eyes opened a little.*  "I take it you're hungry still," *she giggled.*

[12:42] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -to quickly- Why Nothing! Nothing as in no thing...yes...soo shall we? -looks over her shoulder at the door and then back to Ilya and /smiles/0

[12:42] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *seems to enjoy the dancing but doesnt make any moves to make it more physical*

[12:42] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Dont bull me, Something is up"

[12:43] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -cringes-....why? um..what makes you say such a thing?

[12:43] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Maybe.

[12:43] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: *The male Ferengi ensign creeped past the two, leering and licking his teeth.*

[12:44] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "You are cringing, looking over your shoulder, biting your lower lip, your pulse is slightly up"

[12:44] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -eyes him some as he does so-

[12:44] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -tris her best to feign shock- What? nonsense! that is crazy ....um talk.

[12:44] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: So drinks?

[12:44] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Right, we are going to our quarters to have a talk then"

[12:45] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Trill]  *He smiled at her as the song ended.*  "Thank you.  I didn't catch your name?"

[12:45] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: What?? No Nonono you said we could go the dive with the other decatants

[12:45] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Something is up, And I want to know what is wrong"

[12:46] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -sighs and lowers her head- fine....i ...i mights...-looks ot her- you have to promise to not freak out

[12:46] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill glanced around briefly to see that no one was watching.  Tentatively, she leaned over to kiss him gently on the cheek.*

[12:46] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Ill try to"

[12:46] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -sheepishly- I...um....mghtve started to decorate to surprise you before I came up to the bridge

[12:46] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Yeah!  I'll get more drinks!"  *She bounced to the bar.*

[12:47] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles hopefully-

[12:47] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Aria. *Stops dancing long enough to extend her hand not holdong her glass*

[12:47] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "So?"

[12:47] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Well....after everything you said about the holiday decorations and the lights

[12:48] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Trill]  *He took her hand, giving it a firm squeeze.*  "Calex.  It's good to meet you, Aria; your idea to set this up?"

[12:48] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li has a mouthful of pasta as ehe does so.*

[12:48] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Yea, I do not like christmass, if you have decorated our quarters, I do not mind. I wont freak out"

[12:49] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Oh....well...wanna see?

[12:49] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill grinned at him.*  "If you like that, wait 'till I get you some of the non-replicated stuff in Rome."

[12:49] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Sure"

[12:50] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -offers her hand-

[12:50] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *takes vals hand*

[12:50] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -leads her to their quarters-

[12:50] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: It's always better that way.

[12:51] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Maybe. *she grinned slyly*

[12:51] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *follows inside*

[12:52] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -as the door opens up she can see Val as decorated the living room...right down to a fauz marble fireplace and decorations...Illya is first greeted by a stream of music and the scent of cinnamon

[12:52] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: [ music   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDxOu1-c0rw&t=8128s  ]

[12:52] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Calex] "Well I'm not complaining, this place gets boring fast when it's just a bunch of people sitting around and talking.  Even that beach thing gets stale."

[12:52] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: [ decor visual  - https://favim.com/orig/201107/19/christmas-house-lights-tree-Favim.com-110192.jpg ]

[12:53] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -a miniature little 'Polar Express' circles under the tree on its toy train rails and HOOOTs cutely-

[12:53] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Ta Da!

[12:53] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She hurried back over with a tray of various drinks.*  "I didn't know which ones to get!"

[12:54] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -elves and snowman and reigndeer stuffed and fesrive on every shelf-

[12:54] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: festive*

[12:54] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "heh..." *seems lost for words, having some hard time controling her emotions*

[12:55] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -quickly- Im not finished...so dont judge too harshly...we still need to put up the outside snowman and door lights

[12:55] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Well you know how it is. Orions are always the life of the party. *Aria beams*

[12:56] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Looks good to me. *smiles and replaces her drink with one from the tray*

[12:56] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Calex] "Usually.  We trills know how to have a good time too, though," *he winked at her, looking at the tray then.*  "Mind if I grab one, since you already went through the trouble?"

[12:56] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "This... must have taken quiet some time

[12:56] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Sure.

[12:56] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Go ahead!"  *she smiled, offering the tray.*

[12:56] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *looks around to see if there were anymore familiar faces*

[12:56] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Calex] *He picked one of the less ridiculously fruity selections.*

[12:57] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -nodnods- Ive been at it for hours...I still have some boxes to unpack...

[12:57] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Where do you get all these things from, anyways?"

[12:57] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Home...or i picked them from seeing them in the database

[12:58] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Some like the christmas duck..Ive had since i was little

[12:58] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Oh... It is a nice duck"

[12:58] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -piks up the old stuffed clearly loved duckie with the santa hat on

[12:58] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill nodded.*  "Could show you some of the other places I've been, too... there's tons of spots down there.  Lots of history."

[12:58] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: This is Mr Quackers

[12:58] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Nods*

[12:59] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: It helps to hug ya know...he is good at that

[12:59] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *A few of the newer additions fo the Pilgrim had arrived; Jagoda was off dancing by himself and shooting an occasional glare at Gayle, who was dancing with one of Aria's new Bolian engineers.*

[1:00] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She went to set the tray down on a table nearby.*

[1:00] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Earth history is interesting.

[1:00] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: These klingon warrior nutcrackers are a gift from my Nurse....-shows the row of angry faced german crafter klingon warriors-

[1:00] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "It looks like... mr quackers... has gotten a lot of hugs"

[1:01] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -nods- I...did not have many friends initially growing up...we mature differently than humans

[1:01] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Tell me about it"

[1:01] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Heh... you and my mom would get along, then.  You know, if not for the obvious."  *She cringed a little.*

[1:02] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *beams happily seeing everyone letting off steam as she takes another drink trying to drink away all of her bad memories as of late*

[1:02] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: I only had the one friend....until i aged to meet the others in our teens...right around the end of junior high

[1:02] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Obvious?

[1:02] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] *She beamed back at Aria.*  "It's so good to see you cut loose!"

[1:03] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: She was the one who helped me adapt...and in doing so.leanred about my culture as well...in time others did too...as i leared theirs

[1:03] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *nods*

[1:03] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "You know... how my mom's... kind of a xenophobe."  *She frowned.*

[1:03] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Oh.

[1:03] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li frowns.*

[1:03] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: then..it wasnt so hard...or lonely...but al through it...all the way through it..was Mr Quackers..my first christmas present

[1:04] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: He is a brave duck...even with the Santa hat

[1:05] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *smiles some* "Yea... Looks like a camp"

[1:05] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She looked over as she saw Sar and Teir arriving, smiling brightly.*  "I'll be right back, Aria!" *she smiled at her and headed over.*

[1:05] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Champ

[1:05] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Calex] "Friend of yours?" *he asked, looking after Ettore.*

[1:05] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: He is...-eyes her- He is a good listener too....way better than some foolish counselor

[1:06] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: He knows to just listen

[1:06] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill shrugged and sighed.*  "It's her loss, really."

[1:06] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: It's not right.

[1:07] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "I do not dubt you for a moment. A deaf lobotomized crab in a tophat is a bloody better aid the a councilor"

[1:07] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "I know it's not, but she's... stubborn.  Brilliant in other ways, but stupid in this one."

[1:07] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -nods- Indeed

[1:08] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -slips her arms around her and hugs gently, resting her chin on her shoulder-

[1:08] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Yeah. SHes cool.

[1:08] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: We work on the same ship too.

[1:09] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Maybe you can talk to her.

[1:09] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Calex] "Certainly seems to be having a good time," *he noted then looked back at Aria.*  "Yeah?  Where are you posted?"

[1:09] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -nudges her neck gently- Soooo?

[1:09] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "She'd have to accept my calls, first."

[1:10] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Is hugged* "It looks nice, Val."

[1:10] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: The Pilgrim.

[1:10] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: You?

[1:10] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -softly- Thank you...but, that is not entirely what I meant

[1:10] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: You could always show up unannounced.

[1:10] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Then what did you mean, im no bloody betazoid"

[1:11] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: What is wrong? I tried subtle...but i am terrible at it...-chuckles some- I think we both are

[1:11] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Its nothing, and it is silly"

[1:12] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: You are upset...then it is not nothing. -nuzzles her as she holds her-

[1:13] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Calex] "The Argentina.  Just got called out here to join all of you guys for the LMC fun."

[1:13] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Bloody hell... Look, having edetic memory is not all bloody roses and sunshine"

[1:13] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: What kind of ship is that?

[1:14] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill drew in a breath, then released it slowly.*  "I've... thought about doing that.  It's just a little scary... I don't know what I'd do if she just slammed the door in my face."

[1:16] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Leave?

[1:16] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Calex]  "She's a Sovereign class refit."  *He glanced over as the next song started to play.*

[1:17] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill gave a huff of a laugh.*  "Well.. obviously, but it would feel like a kick to the chest, I imagine."

[1:17] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Oldie but goodie. *smiles* Probaby keeps your engineers busy they were even tempermental when new.

[1:18] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: I guess you have to decide if it's worth the risk.

[1:19] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Calex] "Probably, they sure complain about it enough," *he chuckled.*  "But it's with love.  Like it's their bratty child."

[1:19] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill was silent for a little while as she contemplated that.*

[1:20] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She walked past to the bar again, dragging a resigned Teir by his arm.*

[1:21] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -bites her bottom lip and nods- I can only imagine...never having ....things fade

[1:22] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Yea... And if you had asked the seven year old cassandra how she wanted her christmass to look like, This is pretty much it"

[1:23] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *smirks wondering if thats Ettore's significant other*

[1:23] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "I guess... yeah.  You're right.  If she won't talk to me, then that's the only thing I can really do, right?"

[1:23] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -looks around the room and then to her- ....but...no such luck I take it?

[1:23] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li nods.*

[1:23] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "Someone has to end this... standoff."

[1:24] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Calex] *He eyeballed the pair, seeming to be wondering the same thing.*

[1:24] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "When all the kids got back from school and got to tell of their wonderful christmass... All I could say was "Cardassians do not celebrate christmas" and I can not say it did any bloody miracles to >

[1:25] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -Alice drags Jon out onto the dance floor-

[1:25] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: > ease the arleady existing ratial tention and my position as the outsider freakshow monster"

[1:25] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -nodnods- as it was for me...

[1:25] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] "One drink, Nadine, that's it.  We're not repeating the last time."

[1:25] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *smiles and waves at Jon and Alice recognizing them*

[1:25] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: at first

[1:26] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Oh my gooood, that wasn't even that bad..."

[1:26] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "So christmass for me was just the height of the year of being the bottom of the jokes in school"

[1:26] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: It probably won't be her.

[1:27] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Jon waves as he begins to dance like a dork.*

[1:27] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -winces- ...I am sorry Ilya...i shouldve asked. I was just so eager to share this with you....I shouldve talked to you first

[1:27] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Calex] *He took a sip of his drink, glancing at the pair that Aria was waving to.  He snorted a laugh.*  "Humans have many gifts... coordination is not always one of them."

[1:27] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Look, This stuff is quiet lovely. Really. I jsut do not like the geting together shaite and all, aside from that I hate people, It brings to many rubbish memories"

[1:28] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -Alice waves back as she desperately tries to keep her feet from being stepped on by her goofy dance partner-

[1:28] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: So..this christmas...we wil keep it for us

[1:29] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Grand! Splendid"

[1:29] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "I actually celebrated a propper christmas once"

[1:29] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -Smiles- When?

[1:29] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Third year of academy, Jennys parents invited me to come with her to her home"

[1:30] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *She shook her head.*  "No, it won't.  She's too set in her ways.  Maybe..."  *She shrugged.*  "Maybe I can't convince her to change her thinking, but I can give her the impetus to."

[1:30] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: and?

[1:30] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Four months later she is dead"

[1:30] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: and yet..we still remmber this year...-nods to the fireplace- look at the stockings

[1:30] [DOIC1] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Jon mostly certainly does so anyway, although you can't fault him for trying.*

[1:31] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *chuckles*

[1:31] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -there is one for Val and one of Ilya and two others...one for Jenny and one for Sam=

[1:31] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *blinks a few times, trying to hide her inner emotion for that*

[1:33] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Calex]  *He grinned at Aria then.*  "Well, thank you for the dance.  I should rejoin my squad, though, I think they're about to start doing shots.  But it was great to meet you, Aria."

[1:33] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: This year isa year of new beginnings for us both....but we never forget the past...they are always with us both

[1:33] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *Blinks a few times more, trying to hold tears back*

[1:34] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -just hugs her tightly-

[1:34] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: It was nice meeting you too. Have fun herding your drunks. *giggles*

[1:34] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: That's the spirit.

[1:34] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *hides her eyes against Valkriss chest as she do not wish to be seen crying*

[1:34] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Calex] "I'm not their commander, I'm the one who'll get herded," *he winked at her and headed back to his table.*

[1:35] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -gently runs her fingers through her hair as she hugs her, not saying anything just letting her know she is here for her-

[1:36] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "And who knows... if I bring home a nice Bajoran who'll listen to her rambling about ancient Earth history, she may even warm up to the idea," *she smirked.*

[1:37] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *smiles and sits on the edge of a table nursing a drink as she rests for a bit*

[1:37] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She arrived at the table with Teir in tow, plopping down next to Aria.*  "Sorry about that!  Have you two met?"  *she looked between the Orion and the Andorian.*

[1:38] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir]  "We have not."  *He gave Aria a polite nod.*

[1:38] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Well...you'd have to get a foot in the door first.

[1:38] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: "One step at a time..." *she agreed.*

[1:39] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *smiles and nods then drunk responds to a text* So are you two... You know?

[1:39] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *does not say much as she hugs Valkriss*

[1:40] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] *His antennae twitched.*

[1:40] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Ohh... no, no, it's not like that.  Teir's been my best friend since the Academy."

[1:40] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -just holds her ignoring the response for now to her text as the PADD on the table chirps-

[1:41] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Oh it just looked like you two were... Close. That makes sense.

[1:41] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Bloody heck"

[1:41] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -softly- Ssssh it is okay love

[1:41] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] "Nadine is a fine officer.  I trust her with my life."

[1:42] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Aw, don't get all emotional on me, now."

[1:42] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Its good to have friends.

[1:42] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] *He rolled his eyes.*

[1:43] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "It is!" *She agreed and beamed at Aria, looking at her PADD.*  "Whatcha doing?"

[1:43] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "You should probably check your PADD"

[1:43] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles- I am not sure you will want me too

[1:44] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -softly strokes her hair tenderly-

[1:44] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Oh someone was messaging me. I was trying to encourage them to come down and overindulge in alcohol. You know.

[1:44] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *smiles and sips her drink*

[1:44] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "That is an EXCELLENT idea!  Get more people down here!"

[1:44] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] "The lounge already looks like it's near capacity."

[1:45] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Meh..."

[1:45] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "We'll break the capacity!"

[1:45] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] *He squinted at her.*

[1:45] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Aria has invited us for a drink or two at the dive

[1:45] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -cranes her nec to see the text- she seems....happy

[1:46] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Fine... lets see what she is so cheerfull about, but only for a short while!"

[1:47] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Deal a drink or two...then I will bring you back here and we can continue where we were interupted back in the lift

[1:47] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Are you sure you aren't Vulcan? *Aria asked with a smirk*

[1:48] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *nods*

[1:48] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -lifts her chin up to playfully nip it with her fangs-

[1:48] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *grins softly*

[1:48] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Oh wait! -goes to the desk and puts something on her head and poses for her-

[1:48] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: [ http://www.givethebest.com/ImagesTwo/reindeerheadband.jpg ]

[1:48] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: Like?

[1:49] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *laughts* "No, you look stupid"

[1:50] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -laughs and puts it down- Fiiine, party pooper -scoops her up off her feet and out the door-

[1:50] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "You can look stupid if you wish to, be my  guest!" *does not really resist being scooped up*

[1:51] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -actually carries her to the ransporter room nodding to anyone they pass as if she was just strolling along to her next duty-

[1:51] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir]  *He looked at her flatly.*  "I'll pretend I didn't hear that."

[1:52] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -sets her down on the padd and nods to the chief- Two to beam over to the Citadel

[1:52] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: *does not seem all to bothered by being carried around*

[1:52] [DOIC2] Valkriss@Isis.: -sends a text as she is beamed away-

[1:53] [DOIC2] Jillian@liorexus: *The transporter operator nodded and sent them to the Citadel with the rest of their special effects budget.*

[1:53] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *giggles* You should dance with her you know relax some.

[1:55] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] "I do plenty of relaxing," *he shrugged.*  "Tonight, it looks like I'm babysitting though."

[1:56] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Doesnt mean you cant have fun maybe they have andooorian ale. *Aria says the last two words in a sing songy way to emphasize them*

[1:56] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *A few people walked past Jill and Li's table.  They got a few stink eyes tossed their way.*

[1:57] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "OHH, we should get some!  You'll drink with us then, right?!"

[1:57] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li looks down at his plate, eating more of the pasta.*

[1:58] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] "...One.  I will have one."

[1:58] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She practically squealed as she got up and raced to the bar.*

[1:59] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill winced a little, straightening a bit so she wasn't leaning against Li.*

[1:59] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -steps out onto the promenade with Ilya and shakes her head- ...its still amzingly beautiful

[2:00] [DOIC2] Ilya@Illuice: "Yea, if someone where to space teh garbage, it would be great"

[2:00] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "Yea, if someone where to space teh garbage, it would be great"

[2:01] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks- Two drinks max..and then go...come on grouchy -teases-

[2:01] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill shook her head softly and whispered back.*

[2:01] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *whicpsers* He didnt specify what size... *smirks*

[2:02] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "I was not trying to be grouchy, just staing opertunities for improvements"

[2:03] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -enters the lounge with Illya and looks around with a chuckle- So noted...but spacing fellow shipsmaes might classify as being grumpy

[2:03] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "Never said I would do it, Clearly a job for operations"

[2:03] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She came back with a big bottle of the infamous blue liquid.  She grinned at Aria's whisper.*

[2:04] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks- I will put in the work order for you...

[2:05] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *spots Valkriss and Ilya and jumps up and down waving a arm to get their attention*

[2:05] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: *Whispers something to Valkriss*

[2:05] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles seeing her boucning friend- I think Imight just see her

[2:05] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She followed Aria's gaze, then waves as well at Valkriss and the unfamiliar Cardassian.*

[2:06] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -facepalms at the whisper-

[2:07] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -takes Illya by the hand and heads over to Aria gving her friend a huge hug- Hey you!

[2:08] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] "Commander," *he gave Valkriss a respectful bow of his head.*

[2:09] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles to Teir and returns a friendly nod of the head-

[2:09] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Heeeeyyy. A little late to the party. Like the change? We put in a music system and even a pdd and a mic for karoke.

[2:09] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Oh!  I'll need more glasses!"  *She scurried off to the bar.*

[2:09] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "Whats with the clothing?"

[2:10] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *wobbles a bit after letting go of Valkriss clearly intoxicated*

[2:10] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -reaches to steady her some- It looks amazing on you!

[2:10] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She came back with glasses for everyone, including a particularly large one that she set in front of Teir.*

[2:10] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: I loe Karaoke...christmas songs too right?

[2:11] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: love*

[2:11] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *rises her shoulders and arms in the universal I dunno gesture*

[2:12] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -laughs- Well at least you are having fun!

[2:12] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: I decided to embrace my heritage a little bit.

[2:12] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Nothing wrong with that honey

[2:12] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: We can totally get you a matching outfit Ilya!

[2:12] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "I'm sure those've been programmed!" *she said, uncorking the bottle of Andorian ale and pouring generously into Teir's cup.*

[2:12] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] "...That's more than enough, Nadine."

[2:12] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -cringes at that part-

[2:13] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] *She grinned at the Andorian and filled up the other glasses.*

[2:13] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "Nah, I prefere to keep my bloody dignity. So whats up?"

[2:13] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -her eyes go right to the ceiling at Illya's response-

[2:15] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She peered at Ilya with that.*

[2:15] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *sticks out her tongue* someone must be molting. *giggles* We should dance!

[2:15] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Well I love the outfit Aria...you looks amazing tonight

[2:16] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Doesn't she?  She was even dancing with some guy earlier,"  *She waggled her eyebrows.*

[2:16] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Illya is fretting ... someone keeps trying to run her over with a reindeer -smirks playfully at Illya-

[2:17] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: You know how it is us single ladies have to look good. *chuckles and sips her drink*

[2:17] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: So! -claps her hands together- Drinks...

[2:18] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Drinks!

[2:18] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Yes!  I poured drinks!"  *She picked up the glasses of Andorian ale and offered them to Valkriss and Ilya.*

[2:18] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Do you think the Captain will be confused with my name changing back?

[2:18] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -graciously accepts her offered drink- Thank you Ettore!

[2:19] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -to Aria- No....i think she will adapt just nicely

[2:19] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill laughed out loud then, but quickly let her voice drop again.*

[2:19] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li chuckles.*

[2:19] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "Should we not.. you know... Escort the commander to her quarters before all the sixes and sevens goes stright out dodgy and people get ideas that owuld be rather parky note on her record as this >

[2:19] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: > gets pear shaped?

[2:20] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -blinks at that sure this time the UT had to be malfunctioning-

[2:20] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Teir and Ettore looked at Ilya blankly.*

[2:20] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Teir and Ettore looked at Ilya blankly.*

[2:20] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -taps her combadge to check0

[2:20] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir]  "Sixes and sevens goes... what?"

[2:20] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: How much has Ilya been drinking?

[2:21] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -goes out on a limp and tries-....I think yes..we can make sure she gets back to her quarters safely...

[2:21] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: When she is ready?

[2:21] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Why are we doing a house party now?

[2:21] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -hopes she atleast got close to an answer-

[2:21] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir]  "I'm prepared to escort anyone to their quarters should they be too intoxicated to manage it on their own."

[2:22] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Good man Teir -toasts him and sips her Ale-

[2:22] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "Sir Teir from the Land of Killjoys to the rescue..."

[2:22] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "I really think we should skive her spending a penny and get this tidies up before it all goes shambles for her name"

[2:23] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -blinks and actually understands this one- I am sure she is allright for now...we will seeher home bfore she brings shame to her name and house

[2:23] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles to Aria= she really is worried for you

[2:23] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] *He nodded to Valkriss and picked up his oversized cup, eyeballing the amount Ettore had given him before taking a small sip.*

[2:24] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Bippity boopity fish and chips god bless the queen. Bitumen al you min eeee um! *giggles*

[2:24] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "HAHA!!  Frishin yer drink, guv'nuh?" *she joined in.*

[2:24] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Her concern is...um...aces Aria...

[2:24] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Why its fun relax time.

[2:24] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: I was trying to talk Ilya's mystery language did it work?

[2:25] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Im still learning it...i think she wants to sure you are not...assholded? -tries to say Arseholed and fails-

[2:26] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Arse holed? *aria looks confused*

[2:26] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Yes yes Arse!

[2:26] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: That is it

[2:26] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] *He was giving Ettore a 'why did you make me come here' look.*

[2:27] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She was just happily sipping her drink and watching the others.*

[2:27] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "No, Say after me: "Blast it, Im'a so blanddered garned to bodge a shag on a bomb unless holding my hourses, I need to spend a penny"

[2:28] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -facepalms as she chuckles-

[2:29] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Blast it, Imma so bland and garnered to build a shag on a bomb unless hoarding a..."  *She just burst out giggling, unable to finish.*

[2:31] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: I am sure she is fine...she only a little squiddy

[2:31] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -utter;y fails again at trying to say squiffy**-

[2:32] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She kept giggling.*  "Just a baby squid..."

[2:32] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Shiggity shaggidy boo Ilya must have just come back from hogwarts. What does that spell do? *giggles and sips her drink*

[2:32] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] "Nadine?"  *He looked at her with concern.*

[2:33] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She waved him off.*  "I'm fine!  I promise!"

[2:33] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smies at Aria- Shiggity shaggity?

[2:34] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -downs her ale as if it was a glass of milk-

[2:34] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *shrugs* I dunno im not a wizard I don't know these things ask her. *smiles at Ilya*

[2:35] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She leaned over to fill up Valk's cup again.*

[2:35] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Well I gather from the general jist of Illya-speak she is just worried that while having a good time...you dont do anything you might regret is all

[2:36] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "Aria, you are plastered, and in those clothes you have every officer around beliving you are a slapper and they will have fantasies that are hardly briliant for your position"

[2:36] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: See?

[2:36] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -hugs Illya for that-

[2:36] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: *hugs back, but is clearly conserned for Aria*

[2:37] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: I don't slap people thats mean. I dance with them. And whats to regret falling in love with someone and marrying them when they don't really reciprocate... Ooops deleted that. *Aria reached for the

[2:37] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -to Ilya- and now you know why we are here tonight

[2:38] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir]  *He frowned deeply and looked at Valkriss.* "I can escort her back now if that's your concern.  I think Ensign Ettore should go as well."

[2:38] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -to Teir nodding- We will assist you with that....

[2:38] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "No way!  Tonight's just getting started."  *She nodded at Aria.*  "You can do sooo much better than him!  He's just a scummy... bastard!"

[2:39] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: They seem to have had a wonderful time -chuckles=

[2:39] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: See boop doesnt exist anymore. Just like it never happened.

[2:39] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Of course he is -nods to Ettore- they are both without honor

[2:39] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "That is great Aria, ditch the minger and tell him to bike it... But dont make yourself be remembered like a pence fence in your celebration"

[2:39] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -to Aria- Why dont we sit down at the table hon -her tone is understanding and gentle-

[2:40] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Okie dokie.

[2:40] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Aria plops in a chair* Too bad Jaxy isn't still around he was hot.

[2:41] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Ooooh, who's that?"

[2:41] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: captain*

[2:42] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: Val, Cant we do something before Aria will be sent up by everyone around?

[2:42] [DOIC3] Jillian@liorexus: *Jill smiled softly as the two vanished from their table in a shower of transporter sparks.*

[2:43] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: We will Illya..the moment is coming

[2:43] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks to her- Trust me...

[2:43] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: Briliant

[2:43] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Ilya stop being such a party poopie... er yeah er.

[2:43] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "We had a hot captain?  Man, I missed all the good stuff.."

[2:43] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "You are right Aria, Ill put a sock in the negativity, Wanna shotrace with me? Drinks on me"

[2:44] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: He used to be the Chief of engineering when I first came on board. He chose me for the pilgrim I was going to go to ESD.

[2:44] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: He was hot.

[2:44] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -shrugs- I am unsure you would call him hot per say....bu then again I am would not be one to ask about that

[2:44] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Illya...this is a process..you cant speed it up

[2:44] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *grimaces at Ilya* Eww I dont like shots.

[2:44] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir]  "Lieutenant, I don't think the answer is -more- alcohol at this point in the evening."

[2:45] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Why are there no cookies?

[2:45] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "Really? Some bloody great shots you know"

[2:45] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "OH MY GOD YES!  We need Christmas cookies!"  *She rushed to the bar again.*

[2:45] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Gingerbread ones!

[2:45] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Yes a bowl full of them!

[2:46] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks to Illya and winks0

[2:46] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: *Ettore came back not long after with a plate stacked with gingerbread men and frosted sugar cookies in assorted holiday shapes.*

[2:47] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -snatch up a sugar cookie-

[2:47] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -whispers to Illya-

[2:47] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: I think Ilya needs a bunch of drinks. And maybe rockie road. No one can stay grouchy with da road.

[2:48] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir]  *He eyed the plate for a moment before he selected a gingerbread man.*  "Why are they shaped like small humans?"

[2:48] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: They are the gingerbread man!

[2:48] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Because they're gingerbread man, they live in gingerbread houses."

[2:48] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Cannibalism. *smirks wondering if he bought it*

[2:48] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Better the humans eat cookies and not us

[2:48] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "I am not grouchy, well if you deny my invite to shotrace I am... but thats just pissing around"

[2:49] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir]  *He studied the cookie, then the others... and slowly bit the gingerbread man's leg off.*

[2:49] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Ilya you can't pee in public especially not all over the place thats gross.

[2:49] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: No Aria..I know this one...its not peeing

[2:50] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *munched on a cookie and started looking tired*

[2:50] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Its something about drinking or fooling around

[2:50] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Try a sugar cookie Aria

[2:51] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *protests with a full mouth of cookie* But gingerbread...

[2:51] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: They are soo sweet wit the spinkles

[2:51] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: when you are done goofy

[2:51] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Nods and grabs a sugar cookie* I think its time for bed. *yawns*

[2:51] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] *She was already on her third cookie.*

[2:52] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Slumber party?

[2:52] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Oh yes....-yawns herself-

[2:52] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] *He nodded once to Valkriss, eyeing the one-legged gingerbread man then and setting it aside.*

[2:52] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: We have to have it soon

[2:53] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles and whispers back to Illya-

[2:53] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  "Teeeeeeir, did you not like your cookie?!"

[2:54] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: DO I have my Padds *yawns* I dont want to ask him to sign them again.

[2:54] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: You are fine they are here

[2:54] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *nods and hugs them and looks like she might fall asleep on the table*

[2:55] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] *He looked at Ettore and sighed, walking over to set a hand on her arm.*  "Come on, Nadine, it's time to go to bed.  For everyone."  *He eyed Aria.*

[2:55] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -rises and takes Aria by the arm gently- Come n sweetie lets get you home

[2:55] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: on*

[2:55] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: *Looks confused at Valkriss* "What?"

[2:56] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -winces- Give me a hand Illya, lets her back to her bed

[2:56] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore]  *She gave a little whine, but ultimately was pulled up out of her chair by her blue counterpart.*

[2:56] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: *takes Arias other arms*

[2:56] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *nods and lets her lead her back to her quarters*

[2:56] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir]  "If you have the Commander, I can lead the Ensign from here," *he nodded at Valk and Ilya.*

[2:57] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -gently to Aria- Here we go then..-helps her friend back to her cabin and tucks her in-

[2:57] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Very good Teir and thank you both for looking after her tonight

[2:57] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Sleep well Nadine

[2:57] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: *Frowns some and just focuses on helping Aria*

[2:57] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Ettore] "See ya later, Alligator!"

[2:58] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -right to her- after while crocodile

[2:58] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -said in her best klingon voice-

[2:58] [DOIC1] Jillian@liorexus: [Teir] *He looked like that caused him physical pain, but drew in a breath and lead Ettore away from the lounge.*

[2:59] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: Night Val Night her majesty of fish and Chips. *smiles at Ilya*

[2:59] [DOIC1] Aria@Pax_Parabellum: *Passes out in her bed*

[2:59] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles majing sure Aria has one of her favorite plushies to curl up wth- Sleep well Aria...and there she goes...

[3:00] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: Pip pip aria... Pip pip. *Shakes her head as she looks somewhat worried at the sleeping orion*

[3:01] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -to Illya- stick around for a bit..to make sure she doesnt get sick?

[3:01] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "Yea..."

[3:01] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -heads back out to the living room but leaves Aria's bedroom door open-...so did I say it wrong back in the bar?

[3:02] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -keeping her voice low to keep from waking up Aria-

[3:02] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "That depends on what you tried to say"

[3:02] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Steakers...-nodnods-

[3:03] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "It is starkers, Steakers has to do with food"

[3:03] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -cringes- Right....starkers....chuckles- I am trying...

[3:04] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "If you want a good start, Ill give you one advice"

[3:04] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -slips onto the couch curling her long legs up beside of her- Sure...please I do wanna learn

[3:05] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "the second and third officer ranks are the left hands of someone, the oens carying out higher officers orders and passes it down. We are not attendeants of the head. >

[3:05] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: > So it is "Lefthenant, not Loo-tenant"

[3:06] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -blinks- So why does everyone pronounce it wrong?

[3:06] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "I have no idea why there is an obsession of having officers i ncharge of keeping the facilities clean"

[3:06] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -giggles- I am sure that is not what they intended

[3:07] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "The road to hell is paved with bloody great intentions"

[3:08] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Oh god here we go....I believe those who ay Lieutenant are not refering to the loo...which is actually called the 'head' in starfleet

[3:09] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "I know, That is why I said so. Still the only "loo" out thee that I know of is either Louie, a name, or Loo... a civvie head"

[3:09] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -giggles- You do know the rank comes from the 'old French' language on Earth right silly

[3:10] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "Yes, It means the left hand of a captain"

[3:11] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: No...it means "one who takes the place of another" or subsititue deputy..or holding a place....or place holder as in in Lieu of

[3:12] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Thusly the Lieu tenant was a place holder for his direct superior officer

[3:12] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "Yes, He was their left hand man"

[3:12] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -giggles- Yes but the term is french and does not refer to the loo

[3:13] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: *Shrugs* "You said you wished to learn, if you clrearly do not wish to learn I have better things to spend time on"

[3:14] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -goes wide eyed- I was listening

[3:14] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Why so touchy?

[3:15] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "If it now actually is so that it is in Lieu of, Then it should be pronounced Lieu-tenant. Not Loo tennant, and i nthat case nither left-henant

[3:15] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: To be honest I think Lethtenant sounds more romantic

[3:15] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "But if it comes to that it it should be prouncounced one way, that no one does it, And to call it lefthenant, wich is rather close, and then toilet attender... I prefere to not think of myself as a >

[3:16] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: > toilet cleaner after 4 years in the academy and over a year in the stars"

[3:16] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: But you do realize no one is actually calling you this...yes?

[3:18] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "They do say "Loo-tennant ilya" So perhaps I did some really shait work at some point"

[3:19] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles looking at her for a long moment- ...i really do love you

[3:19] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "I love you to"

[3:19] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: So leftenant Ilya then?

[3:20] [DOIC1] Ilya@Illuice: "Indeed, and if you ever have to do the full presentation of your rank, You most certianly to not wish to be the commander of all the loo attendees"
