Protector 12/1

[9:00] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The STAR TREK: PROTECTOR theme begins to play...*

[9:01] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The camera pans around Starbase 220, eventually settling on the Protector. It shows the repair crews working to complete repairs on the ship, and crew going through diagnostics and simulations.*

[9:02] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *It zooms in on Tibs as he begins his opening log.*

[9:02] [DOIC] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *clears his throat*

[9:02] [DOIC] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Captain's Log, Starship Protector, Stardate 94953.96.

[9:03] [DOIC] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Our campaign in defense of Bajor against the Nah'kul seems to have come to a conclusion. It was a hard-fought victory, with significant losses to the crew and to the ship.

[9:04] [DOIC] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We are still docked at Starbase 220 while the final repairs are completed. While they are, thankfully, minor - there are unfortunately some wounds which will not heal.

[9:04] [DOIC] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: In the meantime, we are running simulations while awaiting further orders and the "all clear" from Engineering.

[9:04] [DOIC] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: End log.

[9:04] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Sir...there is an incoming transmission. For your eyes only.

[9:05] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Oh, really? I'll take in my office.

[9:06] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Lieutenant Clerie, please take the conn.

[9:06] [DOIC3] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Down in engineering, Bore is running diagnostics on the damage control systems.*

[9:06] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tiberius strolls off the bridge.*

[9:06] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *Nalie looks over the series of monitors in Engineering* Wuzowski, did you finish replacing the panels in Section four of deck three?

[9:06] [DOIC2] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *A robed, hooded figure is seated at Tiberius' desk.*

[9:06] [DOIC2] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: (Wrong channel? Whoops, I'll move.)

[9:06] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Lieutenant Aloran reviewed her security reports.*

[9:07] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *drags Tibs and Tolar here*

[9:07] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Yes, Chief."

[9:07] [DOIC4] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tiberius folds his arms.* That's not exactly what I was expecting.

[9:07] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -updates her ACCI systems and runs a full systems check-

[9:07] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Aye sir. *Walks over to the big chair*

[9:07] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --is tapping away on her console and reading somethig on her wrist device.--

[9:07] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: What about section eight?

[9:07] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA] E-ezri?

[9:07] [DOIC4] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *The figure looks up, revealing Cardassian features under the hood, but the shadow cast on his face is just enough to prevent revealing his identity.* "Holographic data stream."

[9:08] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Yes, chief."

[9:08] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: -Does sickbay stuff-

[9:08] [DOIC4] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: "You'll forgive the lack of pleasantries -- time is short and I need your help."

[9:08] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Grace] Cat! *She beams*

[9:08] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Yes Hera?"

[9:08] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: -Smiles at Grace- Hey!

[9:09] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Baker, What is our status on the repairs?

[9:09] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *taps on the screen as she updates the list* Alright... Section seventeen?

[9:09] [DOIC4] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Tolar? Is that you? What's with the robe and the hood and the clandestine transmissions?

[9:09] [DOIC4] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: "Apparently, you haven't been following the news. The Federation Embassy on Cardassia Prime was bombed. Officially, I'm still missing."

[9:10] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore smiles under his beard.* "Chief, if you asked me to do it, I do it. Done."

[9:10] [DOIC4] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *He rises from the chair, the light revealing his face.*

[9:10] [DOIC4] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: "But that's not important."

[9:10] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Major repair repair has completed, what is left primarily consists of exposed panels and conduits.

[9:10] [DOIC4] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Things have been... busy around here.

[9:10] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *slowly turns to look at Bore* Deck four, section four?

[9:10] [DOIC4] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Tell me what you need.

[9:10] [DOIC4] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: "There are destabilizing elements on Cardassia that are going to make a big move."

[9:11] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Replaced that two days ago."

[9:11] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: How is the ACCI feeds looking?

[9:11] [DOIC4] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: "They're going to release a virulent strain of the terothka virus in the Capitol City and use it as justification to evacuate the Federation personnel. Once they're off the planet, they're going to -

[9:11] [DOIC4] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: - blockade the system and stage a coup. You need to get here as quickly as you can."

[9:12] [DOIC4] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Why tell me? Why not tell Starfleet?

[9:12] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: And section six?

[9:12] [DOIC4] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *His head jerks and he looks over his shoulder, as if alert for something. He then turns back to Tiberius.* "Because it would blow my cover."

[9:12] [DOIC4] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I'll need to tell Command.

[9:12] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: The ACCI systems are all running a peak performance levels and according to the diagnostics performance will fall well within accepted parameters Lieutenant

[9:12] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Done."

[9:13] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] This is great news. And how are you, Lieutenant?

[9:13] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *smiles to herself as she watches V'Tira*

[9:13] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] He ain't foolin' around.

[9:13] [DOIC4] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: "I'm sending you coordinates to meet with a freighter, carrying a colleague of mine. It'll be near the Badlands."

[9:13] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -a slight hesitation and the politely- I am well, Lieutenant

[9:13] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA] I h-haven't spoken to you in a while, E-ezri.

[9:13] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA] I h-haven't spoken to you in a while, E-ezri.

[9:13] [DOIC4] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *His head jerks again, and he looks back at Tiberius with an expression carrying a sense of urgency.* "Hurry." *The hologram then vanishes.*

[9:14] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy furrows her brow and forces a smile.* Good.

[9:14] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I'm here to do my job, right? If I'm here for cheeseburger breaks, do say so I'll go take one right now."

[9:14] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Yeah I know Hera, I just figured you needed your space."

[9:14] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *looks back to her panel and taps in some more updates* Armory door lock is still listed as broken. When you're done stuffing cow meat into your face, go fix that.

[9:15] [DOIC4] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tiberius turns around and leaves the room.*

[9:15] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: And find Snow. He's late for his shift again.

[9:15] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tiberius walks onto the bridge.*

[9:15] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "The cheseburger thing was a joke, I'll go deal with it right no..." *He groans when he hears the Dame thing.* "Yes, chief..."

[9:15] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Nothing new to report, Sir.

[9:15] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Baker, I need a channel to Command.

[9:15] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *nods at Desiree*

[9:16] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] What is the message you need relayed, sir?

[9:16] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *He turns around, heading for the armoury. "I'll deal with the easier problem - the lock first."

[9:16] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Grace] How are you?

[9:16] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *turns to look at Daniels with a shrug*

[9:17] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I need to talk to Command.

[9:17] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She raised a brow as she read something in a report.  She hit her combadge.*  =/\= "Aloran to Naeidra."

[9:18] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: Okay, how are you?

[9:18] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Yes sir.

[9:19] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Naeidra] =^= Yes ma'am?

[9:19] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Grace] Better after what happened.

[9:20] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: =/\= "Make sure we've got someone posted on the Armoury at all hours until Engineering gets around to fixing that door lock, okay?  Damn thing's a security risk."

[9:20] [DOIC6] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore kneels in front of the lock and starts working on it, taking his time, not really wanting to go back to babysitter duty for damian.*

[9:21] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I am working on it sir.

[9:21] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Maybe he's sick?

[9:21] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Naedira] =^= Yes ma'am.

[9:21] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: -Nods some- Call me if you need anything

[9:21] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: =/\= "That's what I like to hear.  Aloran out."  *She cut the line.*

[9:21] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Begin preparations to leave spacedock.

[9:22] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I want to be ready to depart double ASAP.

[9:22] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: If he is, then he should have notified one of us or reported to sickbay. Not like we really need him anyway. One man won't make a difference.

[9:22] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She looked at Tibs with that.*  "I don't think we're fully repaired yet?"

[9:22] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] ...yes sir...we are still finishing up minor repairs but are spaceworthy.

[9:22] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --Ezri turns her head to look at Tibs, she seems confused and concerned.--

[9:22] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Forget about the repairs.

[9:22] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -turns and quirks a brow- Sir..have we received orders from command?

[9:22] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Is there something we should be aware of, Captain?"

[9:22] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Not yet.

[9:23] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I've come into possession of information that suggests an urgent situation. I'm going to ask Command for permission to pursue it.

[9:23] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Yes sir...

[9:23] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: =^= Bridge to Nalie.

[9:23] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She tilted her head, but nodded in acceptance.*

[9:23] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: =^= Nalie here, go ahead.

[9:24] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: What's the hold-up, Baker?

[9:24] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: =^= Please prepare the ship to leave spacedock and be underway. How long do you need?

[9:24] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Sir...I have a Captain Ben Collins from Daedalus Command on the line for you.

[9:24] [DOIC6] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore gets done with the armoury lock eventually, trying the door and lock a few times. When it works correctly, he stands up and turns to go and find Dame. Eventually, he reaches his door and knocks>

[9:25] [DOIC6] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *A few times.*

[9:25] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Fantastic. Put him on screen.

[9:25] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Admiral Compton is currently occupied in the Large Magellanic Cluster, sir, hence the delay.

[9:26] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The screen flickers and a fourtysomething human male appears on the screen, with a red stripe and captain pips.*

[9:26] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: =^= Depends on how finished a product you want. We can launch now, but we're still missing a few sections of our outer ablative armor, and some of the conduits on deck four still need to be repaired.

[9:26] [DOIC6] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *After not getting a response, he turns to go back to engineering.*

[9:26] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Collins] Commander...what can I do for you?

[9:26] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: Not to mention that none of the power systems, the cloak, or the replacement ablative generators have been tested yet.

[9:26] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Grace] Maybe...we could talk later?

[9:26] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Good morning, Captain. It has been brought to my attention by Lieutenant Tolar Demor that rogue elements on Cardassia are planning to stage a coup.

[9:26] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Grace] Just been having trouble sleeping.

[9:26] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: They intend to release a modified strain of a virus as a pretext to evacuate Federation personnel.

[9:27] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Then blockade the system.

[9:27] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks abrow at the mention of her friend's name-

[9:27] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: -Gives her a polite nod- Ofcourse

[9:27] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I am requesting permission to proceed to Cardassia directly.

[9:27] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: =^= Based on the captain it seems to be Fight fly float, Anything else is a bonus.

[9:27] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She blinked slowly.*

[9:27] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --Ezri leans over to V'Tira and whispers-- "Did he say Tolar, the mutineer?"

[9:27] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The man raises his eyebrows.* [Collins] This Lieutenant...Demor...he served on your ship before returning to Cardassia, no?

[9:27] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -softly to herself- ....a coup

[9:27] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Correct. He's the son of a prominent Cardassian diplomat.

[9:28] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *Arches an eyebrow in a way that hopefully would make V'Tira proud*

[9:28] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Collins] I read those reports, Commander...a terrorist attacked that killed him and his father.

[9:28] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: The report was only partially correct. Lt. Demor has apparently survived.

[9:28] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: =^= It won't be pretty, but I can give you the basics. Just remember that the areas that breached are still vulnerable without ablative armor, and I can't guarantee there won't be issues if we cloak.

[9:28] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I think he was using his presumed death as cover.

[9:29] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Collins] You are /certain/ this is the geninue article?

[9:29] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: =^= Newest information is we are heading to Cardassia. and it is truly urgent. Give us what you can and we will try to... fly with our pants?

[9:29] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Ally gives Cat a friendly hug* Thank you!

[9:29] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore enters engineering, but keeps his mouth shut for now, seeing Nalie is busy.*

[9:29] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: It seemed to be a transmission from him. The worst case scenario, Captain, is that we go on a wild goosechase.

[9:30] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: =^= We'll do our best.

[9:30] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Collins] I see...is there any evidence this coup has external origins?

[9:30] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: -Hugs Ally and smiles- Anytime.

[9:30] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: =^= I know you will, you always do. Ill keep you updated, Bridge out.

[9:31] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: It seems to fit the pattern with events on Cardassia. Other than the transmission from the Lieutenant, I have no other evidence for you.

[9:31] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Collins] Commander...if this is an internal affair, the Prime Directive applies.

[9:31] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *looks around engineering* Alright, people. Close up everything you can. We're going to do this without the usual simulations and diagnostics.

[9:32] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: Daniels, did we at least get the ablative armor plating delivered to the ship?

[9:32] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We would have to determine the nature of the coup when we arrive.

[9:32] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore quirks an eyebrow. However, he turns to do the usual pre-flight routine.*

[9:33] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I have my own suspicions. It's... interesting that this move comes after the Nah'kul failure to stage a coup on Bajor.

[9:33] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Collins] You are correct. Let me be clear, Commander. You have license to investigate and evacuate our personnel as necessary.

[9:34] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Collins] However, you do not have license to violate the Prime Directive.

[9:34] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran tried very hard not to snort at that.*

[9:34] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *types on her console*

[9:34] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Understood, Captain.

[9:35] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Collins] Anything else?

[9:35] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Nothing further, Captain. We will depart immediately.

[9:35] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *A Bolian male walks into sickbay, looking very distressed.*

[9:36] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] We have it but it hasn't been installed.

[9:36] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Collins] Understood. Good hunting, Commander. Collins out.

[9:36] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *looks at Bore* In that case...

[9:36] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: -Walks over to the Bolian Male- Can I help?

[9:36] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The screen shifts to the 22nd logo.*

[9:36] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Helm, request permission to disembark and once permission has been given, disengage all moorings.

[9:37] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Blot] Maybe? I dunno...it's probably ridiculous.

[9:37] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore doesn't notice, his back turned towards Nalie as he works.*

[9:37] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Aye sir.

[9:37] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: What is it? -sh says tilting her head slightly?

[9:37] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Lieutenant V'Tira and Ensign Tegan, work together to pour over all active agreements and defense pacts with Cardassia. Search every footnote. Find some legal way for us to intervene if necessary.

[9:37] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: Wuzowski, how are you with suits?

[9:37] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Blot] I just...I get distracted while on shift...I start getting thrown back in my mind to the battle.

[9:37] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I do have one possibe .... option for you Captain

[9:37] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Yes?

[9:38] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: -nods some- Do you wish to talk about it somewhre private?

[9:38] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *He turns around to look at her confused.* "Suits? Only the basic stuff we were taught in the academy."

[9:39] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Use of a biomedical or chemical weapon of such magnitude such as the propse use of this virus...could be seen as an attack onthe Federation as wel..given we have starfleet and diplomatic personel at

[9:39] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *considers* Alright... We've got four ablative armor plates to install, which means I need four volunteers.

[9:39] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: the suggested ground zero release point

[9:39] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *scratches his chin* I think I can argue that point if necessary. Good thinking.

[9:40] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: It's absolutely my intention to intervene and stop this coup by all legal means available to us.

[9:40] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: a violation,..might be ...acceptable to avoid such an act of war

[9:40] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *He shrugs.* "Well, since you already asked... some practice wouldn't hurt, I guess?"

[9:40] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "I think the saying goes, 'It's easier to ask permission than to ask forgiveness?'"

[9:40] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Blot] S-sure?

[9:41] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Wait... or was it the other way around?"

[9:41] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: -Cat smiles and lads Blot back out into her closet-

[9:41] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I believe one of our purposes could be argued captain...that we exssit to stop such an act hat could lead to war

[9:41] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: Keep in mind that we're doing this while at warp.

[9:41] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: that

[9:41] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: You still want to volunteer?

[9:41] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The Bolian looks around, trying to relax.*

[9:41] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I like that thinking.

[9:41] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: My logs will reflect such sir

[9:42] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Thank you Lieutenant.

[9:42] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --Ezri swivels around in her chair.-- "Are you looking for legal cover from Starfleet or the Cardassians."

[9:42] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Status of disembarkation, Helm?

[9:42] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Simply Starfleet.

[9:42] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I... don't really see anyone else stepping forward. Besides, if we're sent out this urgently, without finishing repairs, I'll feel safer if we got some more armour on."

[9:42] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Captain? -turns- One more thing to consider

[9:42] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Was about to say something when she apparently thought better of it.*

[9:42] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: -Cat sits in an opening inviting posture- What's on your mind? -she says warmly-

[9:42] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Well then sir there is always article 14, Section 31."

[9:42] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Go ahead.

[9:43] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: You claimed your source is Mister Demor yes?

[9:43] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I am working with Ensign Wiebe and 220 sir...given we have not technically completed repairs this is considered unusual.

[9:43] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Correct.

[9:43] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Ezri, Do not speak of 14:31. It only leads people on the wrong paths.

[9:43] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Forget about justifications. Release the docking clamps and we will explain it to them late.r

[9:44] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: I am sorry, Speak of it if you wish, but never use it to justify anything, Is what I meant.

[9:44] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I just received approval sir.

[9:44] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: If i may, though I have found him to be a emotionally charged individual...i need to point out.as a former head of security...He would be wel aware of the Prime Directive...and its

[9:44] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Understood, releasing docking clamps.

[9:44] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Blot] Sivok.

[9:44] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: application there for it is logical to assume he is letting you know by the nature of his request...this threat is indeed external

[9:44] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Kobay gives Nalie a look.*

[9:45] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I trust him.

[9:45] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Do you have experience doing this sort of work, Ensign?

[9:45] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: -Nods understandingly- did you know him well?

[9:45] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *does some diagnostics on the tactical systems*

[9:45] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Blot] Not really...he was always...stiff?

[9:45] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods- I am merely pointing two such options for you to consider as requested sir

[9:45] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "As I said, nothing outside of the academy and the simulations. This is my first assingnment, after all."

[9:45] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She rubbed her jaw contemplatively.*

[9:45] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *looks at Daniels*  I'll head down to the cargo bay and move the pieces to the shuttle bay. Find me two more volunteers and we'll get this done.

[9:46] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: If the threat is external...there is no violation of the Prime Directive

[9:46] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: This is an attack on an ally..much ike with Bajor

[9:46] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: Wuzowski, you go find a suit and meet me in the shuttlebay.

[9:46] [DOIC3] Catriona@dardez1: -nods- What about it do you think is getting to you? -she smiles slightly-

[9:46] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Yeah, so we heard, I thought we were taking off?" *Aloran muttered.*

[9:46] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The sound of the docking clamps releasing is heard as the Protector slips away from Starbase 220.*

[9:46] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: I'll meet you there.

[9:46] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Very good, I appreciate that.

[9:46] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Helm, get us to Cardassia, best possible speed.

[9:46] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at V'Tira.-- "Also if the CArdassians ask for our help, there is no violation of the prime directive."

[9:46] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *He nods and heads out towards the storage room where suits are kept.*

[9:47] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Blot] He stood up for all us...and he paid for it. They...they just shot him, in cold blood.

[9:47] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "I don't think one Cardassian speaks for them all."

[9:47] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Indeed and yet he is the son of one of their most valued diplomats

[9:47] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] You already have one...I'll find you one more

[9:48] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Id belive its quiet safe to say that if it is the so called "New wave cardassians" who are involved, due to their classification as... not an exactly lawful organization, it is not a direct violation>

[9:48] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Doesn't make him one by birthright.  At least I'm pretty sure that's not how they do it there."

[9:48] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *Nalie heads out the hatch and down to the cargo bay*

[9:48] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: > of cultural development.

[9:48] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she nods at V'Tira.-- "We can always claim we didn't know he was not authorized to speak for the whole lot of them."

[9:48] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] I have a course laid in sir, ready to engage.

[9:48] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Yeah, let's avoid lying to Command, shall we?"

[9:48] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Tegan. We are stafleet officers, if we do an action we stand for it.

[9:48] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Engage.

[9:49] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -ponders this a moment and nods- There is a degree of logic to that approach as well...I had not cosnidered the 'we were dumb' approach..yet one can not argue its effectiveness in the long run

[9:49] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --Ezri looks at Aloran.-- "yeah I suppose you are right, they probably would not appreciate that."

[9:49] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The Protector, now free of 220 jumps to warp.*

[9:49] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *walks into Cargo Bay 4 and looks around for the ablative armor plates*

[9:49] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: (( oops lol

[9:49] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: In fact, I need you to head to these specific coordinates.

[9:49] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *sends specific coordinates to Helm. In the badlands*

[9:50] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: In theory...it is possible that command has been ..misled occasionaly

[9:50] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Aye sir...adjusting course.

[9:50] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore eventually finds a suit and puts it on, then heads towards the shuttle bay.*

[9:50] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "the badlands? That sounds unpleasant."

[9:50] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Eh. It's alright.

[9:50] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Sir, I sugest that we test our cloak while we can.

[9:50] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "What gave you that impression, Ensign?" *Aloran rolled her eyes.*

[9:51] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Will the cloak even work in the Badlands?

[9:51] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: No, But maybe over cardassia sir. However it is a brand new one, and has never been brought online before.

[9:51] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *grabs the whole stack and lifts, her suit whining with the effort of lifting the extra weight.  She carries the bundle the short distance to the shuttlebay*

[9:51] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore walks into shuttlebay, checking his suit for any breaches.*

[9:51] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Aloran- I believe she is basing such a supposition based on the social fraework of higher authoroty needing to maintain disipline and order

[9:51] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks up information on the badlands.--

[9:51] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Kobay walks in as well as Kara.*

[9:52] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Blot] I keep thinking back and...what if I came forward, you know?

[9:52] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: In theory it is a phase cloak...there is no reason why it should not function in such a stellar enviroment

[9:52] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *dumps the bundle of plates on the floor near the wall, leaving the shuttlebay's floor-hatch free*  Alright. we're going to do these one at a time.

[9:52] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore nods at the others, waiting for orders.*

[9:53] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: That is lovely! I should read up better on it I hear

[9:53] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Understood.

[9:53] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dalby] You got it boss.

[9:53] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks up.-- "It should work, but the gravitational anomalies could cause a problem. But, we should be able to steer aroudn them."

[9:53] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: When you're out there, make sure that you stay attached to the ship at all times. I think you all know what happens if you fall out of a warp bubble with nothing but a suit around you.

[9:53] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -rubs the bridge of her nose a moment-

[9:53] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She looked back at V'Tira.*  "I mean, why she would think the 'badlands' sound unpleasant."

[9:53] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore nods, listening.*

[9:54] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We will test it just before we reach the Badlands.

[9:54] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at Aloran-- "Because the name...bad is in the name."

[9:54] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Aloran= Perhaps the given moniker was a clue for her to deduce?

[9:54] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran covered her face with both hands.*

[9:54] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: Watch each other, take it slow, and do it right.  We'll be done in no time.

[9:55] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Sir, With respect is it not better to test it now, givng our engineers the maximum ammount of time to repair any eventual damage or issues from such test?

[9:55] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: =^= Nalie to Bridge.

[9:55] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] =^= Bridge here.

[9:55] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she frowns-- "Are you okay Aloran?"

[9:55] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "I'm trying to fight the urge to bash my face into my console, Ensign..."

[9:55] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I wish you well with your effort Lieutenant for i fail to see how that could possibly be productive at this current time

[9:56] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "why would you want to do that, it sounds like it would be painful."

[9:56] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: =^= I'm taking three officers on a space walk to install the missing sections of ablative armor on the fly. We'll be on the hull at least four times, for a minimum of ten minutes each time.

[9:56] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] =^= Understood.

[9:56] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran was trying not to groan.*

[9:57] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "perhaps you could use some Jumja tea. I find it very relaxing."

[9:57] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Please... stop... talking."

[9:57] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: A brief test then.

[9:57] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Meditation.....-pauses- Her or I?

[9:57] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she shrugs and tunrs back to her console.--

[9:57] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *walks over to the secondary controls for the shuttlebay. She activates the atmospheric containment, then opens the doors. As they open, the distinct star-streaking of warp can be seen outside*

[9:58] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: My point became hollow sir, With Nalie on a spacewalk its hardly time for a test like I requested.

[9:58] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at V'Tira.-- "I think she needs some quiet time."

[9:58] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She stared at V'Tira like an attack dog that was about to lunge.*

[9:58] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore takes a deep breath, looking at that, his breathing being almost deafening to him in his suit.*

[9:58] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Beautiful and terrifying...all in the same moment.

[9:59] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Yeah... It's... different than the simulations... this is what I signed up for."

[9:59] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *walks over to the stack of armor plates and picks up the top one.  She walks over to the floor opening and looks over*  The transition might be jarring. Remember that the hull is always down.

[9:59] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *with that, she walks down the side and out onto the hull, ending up upside-down relative to everyone else as she disappears from view*

[10:00] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *He nods.*

[10:00] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods to Ezri- Oh well then ofcourse...to concentrate on keeping herself from the face bashing...-turns back to her console-

[10:00] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] =^= Kobay to chief...at what point do you want us out there?

[10:00] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she nods slowly.--

[10:00] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She took in a deep breath and turned back to her console.*

[10:01] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --Ezri monitors her sensors.--

[10:01] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Tactical system diagnsostics shows green, Sir.

[10:01] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Indeed.

[10:02] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she oocasionally glances over to check and see if Aloran is okay.--

[10:02] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Monitoring our space walkers...Nalie is currently out installing an ablative armor plate.

[10:02] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *shivers*

[10:02] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore listens in on Kobay's comms, waiting for orders to come out.*

[10:02] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy turns her head and frowns at Desiree's reaction.*

[10:03] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *out on the hull, Nalie leads the way toward the farthest section of exposed hull, carrying the plate out in front of her like an oversized dinner tray. The trip is slow and steady, clomp clomp clomp*

[10:03] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: A lovaly brave woman, or with a deathwish. Probably brave.

[10:04] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she turns and looks at Baker-- "What happens if she falls off?"

[10:05] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "...She floats."

[10:05] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] She won't.

[10:05] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Well she wll float until she passes beyond the warp bubble

[10:05] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: As long as she is inside the bubble, nothing spectacular happens.

[10:05] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks concerned.-- "Maybe we should slow down a little."

[10:05] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: =^= "Chief, waiting on your go, do I follow?"

[10:06] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: There is the slight matter of a bio-weapon of mass destruction ensign

[10:06] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "She knew the risks."  *She shrugged.*

[10:06] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: =^= Unless you plan to eat a cheeseburger first. Installation goes a lot faster if I have help.

[10:06] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Knows....she knows the risks -she corrects Aloran-

[10:07] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I see your point. Besides on further consideration I don't think slowing down would help anyway."

[10:07] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: =^= "Coming out..." *Bore walks out, following her. He blinks a bit, overcoming the sense of everything being turned around, then he follows with the same heavy clomps.*

[10:07] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "I meant before going out there."

[10:08] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Kobay follows behind Bore, and then Kara.*

[10:10] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *reaches the exposed hull section and moves the plate into position while she waits for the rest of the team to arrive.

[10:11] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: ETA to the Badlands?

[10:11] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore reaches it as well, and stands on another side of the plate, waiting to secure it.*

[10:11] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Twelve days sir...slipstream would take minutes but we would need time to charge.

[10:12] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Slipstream. Make it happen.

[10:12] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "We expecting any trouble when we get there?"

[10:12] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Sir...may I recommend we allow our engineers to complete their task?

[10:12] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Yes.

[10:12] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Captain?

[10:12] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: After the tests.

[10:12] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Great time to let it charge, then?"

[10:12] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -turns back to her console then-

[10:12] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] It is currently charging.

[10:13] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Kobay and Kara take the two other sides.*

[10:13] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -closes her eyes a moment-

[10:14] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *lowers the plate into place and begins the slow process of securing it*

[10:14] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Kobay and Kara slowly lower it down as well.*

[10:14] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore begins securing on his own side as well.*

[10:17] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Clear on my side!

[10:17] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Same.

[10:17] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --taps away on Desiree's computer.--

[10:17] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA] Thank you for the s-space.

[10:17] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Same here."

[10:18] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she hold up her device-- "Oh no problem. i wouldn't want to stress anyone out."

[10:18] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *stands up and starts back toward the shuttlebay* Good.  One down, three to go.

[10:19] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The pair follow her back.*

[10:19] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *So does Bore.*

[10:21] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dalby] That wasn't so bad.

[10:21] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: Wait at section six. I'll bring the next plate out. *she walks down/up into the shuttle bay*

[10:21] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA] It's nice to be able to talk to people.

[10:22] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Shh. You'll jinx it." *He heads towards section six.*

[10:22] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: -she nods-- "Sure, but we probably should avoid too much chit chat...I am working. I will find you when my shift is over."

[10:22] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She eyed Tegan.*

[10:23] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA] O-okay.

[10:23] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The pair head towards section six and wait.*

[10:24] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *picks upthe next plate and carries it out and around to section six, looking all the world like an armored waitress delivering a plate of food*

[10:24] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -opens her eyes- Ezri may address your friend?

[10:24] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore starts leading them towards the breach that needs filling.* "At least nothing can beat the view..."

[10:24] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "sure. I am sure she would like that. "

[10:25] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods to this- Hera? Would you care to do something for me please?

[10:25] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Are we seriously taking personal calls on the bridge now?"

[10:25] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Is Hera not aboard ship?

[10:25] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA} Y-yes?

[10:25] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA} Y-yes?

[10:25] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *stops at section six and lowers the plate into place. She repeats the process of securing her side.*

[10:26] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "I have no damn idea who that is."

[10:26] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --She nods-- "she is in the science lab...part of my science team."

[10:26] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore starts securing his side.*

[10:26] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] The view is great as long as your feet are stable.

[10:26] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The two engineers repeat the process.*

[10:26] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She just shrugged then and went back to her colouring books.  I mean, security logs.*

[10:27] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Hera...if I gave you access to a persona file.would you ensure for me..that the files recently downloaded were no corrupted in any way and ensure that they are viewable?

[10:27] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA] Of c-course!

[10:27] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "True enough... let's hope we stay stable for the time being..."

[10:27] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Well technically it is ascience and engineering lab. But, really the engineers don't use it much."

[10:27] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "...Didn't need the clarification."

[10:28] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she nods at Aloran--

[10:28] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -enters the data fed to that file group= You will find the file named 'Cestus Baseball League, Playoffs'

[10:28] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *finishes her side and starts back toward the shuttlebay to get the next piece* You can enjoy the view when we're done.

[10:29] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: Section nine is next, then section fifteen.

[10:29] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA} P-playofs?

[10:29] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I'd much rather get out of the cold vacuum of space immediately after we're done..." *He leads the way to Nine."

[10:29] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dalby] I'll join you.

[10:30] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Yes...a series of round robin like game play between teams to ensure a process of elimination culminating in the final two teams competing for a championship title

[10:30] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA} Yes...I c-can!

[10:33] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *grabs the next piece of armor plating and carries it to section 9 to install it*

[10:34] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore helps put the plate in place, then goes to one side and starts the process of lowering and securing.*

[10:35] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Kobay and Kara assist as well.*

[10:36] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *finishes up her side and wanders off to get the last piece*

[10:37] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *The little lamp on Bore's suit goes out. He taps it with his fist once or twice and it comes back on. He then leads the way to section 15.*

[10:38] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *A thirty minute timejump occurs. The slipstream is now charged and ready for use.*(

[10:38] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The ablative armor is also installed.*

[10:38] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *plating

[10:38] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran spent the last half hour just being generally grumpy, as per the usual.*

[10:39] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *leads the way back into the shuttlebay and walks over to the auxilary controls*  Everybody in unless you want to get a lot smaller.

[10:39] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Kobay and Kara get back in as quickly as possible.*

[10:39] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore follows her inside quickly. He then turns around to get one last look at the stars.*

[10:40] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *watches the hatch and triggers the door close as soon as Bore clears the threshold*

[10:40] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Kelvor] =^= Engineering to Nalie

[10:40] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: Alright, back to Engineering.  Maybe they won't break it again for a while.

[10:40] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Don't count on it, chief."

[10:40] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *stops mid-step*  =^= Nalie here, go ahead.

[10:40] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *waves the others to go ahead without her*

[10:41] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Kelvor] =^= Request from the bridge...slipstream is ready to activate.

[10:41] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore leads the other two back to the storage room to take the suits off.*

[10:41] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: =^= Tell them to go ahead.  We're done with the installation and everyone is back inside.

[10:41] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "That... wasn't as scary as expected." *He says, taking the suit off.*

[10:41] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran mused over something for a moment before tapping at her console, ordering for a count to be taken of everything in the armoury considering that the door had been busted up until recently.*

[10:42] [DOIC4] Nallie@Cuatela: *makes her way back to Engineering while she talks*

[10:42] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Status report?

[10:42] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy giggles.* [Baker] Slipstream is ready for use, sir.

[10:42] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy giggles.* [Baker] Slipstream is ready for use, sir.

[10:43] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dalby] It was still a little scary.

[10:43] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Slipstream course is ready, sir.

[10:43] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *walks back into Engineering*

[10:43] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Any outstanding repairs to wait for?

[10:43] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] No sir.

[10:44] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Engineers are accounted for.

[10:44] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Acci Feeds up and steady sir...no threats nor alerts posted

[10:44] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore is at his usual station.*

[10:44] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --is suddenly confused.--

[10:44] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Excellent. Engage the Slipstream drive.

[10:45] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at V'Tira.-- "it is that important information?"

[10:45] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -rubs the bridge of her nose a moment-

[10:45] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran glared at something on her console.*

[10:45] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The Protector disappears into a slipstream tunnel.*

[10:46] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Kelvor] We have entered slipstream ma'am...everything looks stable.

[10:47] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She made a few keystrokes.*

[10:47] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *nods* Keep an eye on the core's output. If you notice any anomalies, let me know.

[10:48] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she turns and stares at the view screen at the image of the slipstream tunnel.--

[10:49] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy giggles again.*

[10:50] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Taking us out of slipstream.

[10:50] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She just ground her teeth.*

[10:50] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The Protector exits slipstream in the midst of the Badlands.*

[10:50] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: What a sight.

[10:50] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *As the cerulean energy wipes itself away from the viewscreen, the fiery field of plasma erupts into view.*

[10:50] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Helm, bring us to those coordinates and engage the phase cloak.

[10:50] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Indeed Captain

[10:51] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *Cathy's console beeps urgently.*

[10:51] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Sir, we have a distress call...heading 171 mark 61.

[10:51] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Sir! Fleet engagement, Multiple cardassian ships are engaging fire!

[10:52] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] It is civilian.

[10:52] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -spins up her jamming protoculs-

[10:52] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Guess we're just in time for the party."

[10:52] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Kelvor] No ma'am...she performed well

[10:53] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: I sugest we go to yellow alert and order general quarters, sir.

[10:54] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Agreed.

[10:54] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Red alert. Decloak and hail the Cardassian ships.

[10:54] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she turns to V'Tira, with a confused look.-- "I am sorry lieutenant. How did you wanto me to process that data?"

[10:54] [DOIC] Desiree@Illuice: =^= All hands, Red alert.

[10:54] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] We never cloaked sir...I am hailing them now.

[10:55] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Hmm. Alright.

[10:55] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: =/\= "Aloran to security teams, we're approaching an active firefight.  Get strapped and get ready for anything."

[10:55] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *In the distance, a civilian freighter is attempting to weave around asteroids as two Keldon-class ships take shots at it.*

[10:55] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Sir...that civilian freighter is transmitting a distress call

[10:55] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: t- Ezri- We can discus such Ensign following the end of the alert

[10:55] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Would you like to hear it?

[10:55] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Put it on.

[10:56] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy puts the contents of the distress call on the speakers.*

[10:56] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "Right. Assuming we survive."

[10:56] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Aye...but it looks like we have trouble.

[10:56] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "In the future, let's just always make that assumption, Tegan."

[10:56] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Preparing for damage control."

[10:56] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she shrugs--

[10:56] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "This is the S.S. Ariadne to all ships in range -- we are under attack by Cardassian warships and they aren't responding to hails! Any friendly ships in range, please assist!"

[10:56] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore goes to get kitted up.*

[10:57] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks up the data on the SS Ariadne-

[10:57] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *sighs* Guess it was too good to be true.

[10:57] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The familiar red glow fills the corridors of the ship.*

[10:57] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: What is the crew compliment of that vessel?

[10:57] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I told you, chief. Don't count on those new platings to last that long."

[10:58] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Accessing such data now for you Captain

[10:59] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: I know, I just hate seeing the ship damaged before we're finished putting her back together again.

[10:59] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: SS Ariadne....crew complement 14, legaly owned and operated charter transport ship....minimal armements consisting of Phase Cannons ...she is a Federation civilian regsitered vessel

[10:59] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she begins scanning the freighter to determine what shape it is in and how many life forms are on board.--

[11:00] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Guess the Prime Directive won't be a problem just yet."

[11:00] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Same here.. all those double shifts I pulled... and dealing with that engineer from the Pilgrim with the ten foot pole up his ass..." *Bore sighs sadly.*

[11:00] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Send a message to the Cardassian vessels. Cardassian vessels, this is Lt. Cmdr. Asada of the Federation Starship Protector. You are attacking a Federation civilian vessel. Cease your attack >

[11:00] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Not in this instance...that ship is one of ours and bound for Deep Space Nine

[11:00] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: immediately or face reprisal. Asada out.

[11:01] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Transmitting sir.

[11:01] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: This can be no coincidence captain...that is this is occuring at your specified coordinates

[11:01] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Something tells me they won't cooperate. Lieutenant Clerie, plan your tactical solution.

[11:01] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: We'll just have to do our best to minimize the damage where we can.

[11:01] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Yes sir

[11:02] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "No wonder they call it the badlands, there are Cardassians here. There goes the neighborhood, right?"

[11:02] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *The speakers chirp before the ship responds with an audio only signal.*

[11:02] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran actually smirked at that one.*

[11:02] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Putting on a response, sir.

[11:02] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Yes, Chief."

[11:02] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "Starfleet vessel, this is a matter of internal security. Vacate the area immediately."

[11:02] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] We aren't in trouble yet.

[11:03] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Like hell it is *she mutters*

[11:03] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Cease your attack. This is not negotiable. Asada out.

[11:03] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I am getting a lot of inteference from the plasma storms and gravity anomalys. Sensors are all but useless. trying to compensate."

[11:03] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Standing by to jam their long range subspace communications Captain and targetting arrays

[11:03] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Always be prepared for the worst, Lieutenant. You'll end up being pleasantly surprised in most cases."

[11:03] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *Perhaps the sensors will give the ship heads up about the incoming spiral wave disruptor strike?*

[11:03] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Solution locked in.

[11:04] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she attempts to compensate.--

[11:04] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *nods without further comment*

[11:04] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] They consider this an internal matter sir...I do not believe they will yield.

[11:04] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Neither do I. Lieutenant V'Tira, engage your electronic countermeasures.

[11:05] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Lieutenant Clerie, fire to disable their weapons.

[11:05] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Aye Captain -nods and commences jamming their com and targetting arrays-

[11:05] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Yes sir, Wiebe, please bring me in for a stright on pass on target Alpha.

[11:05] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Aye ma'am!

[11:06] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Let me help you with some of those algorithms, Lieutenant.

[11:06] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I have some knowledge of Cardassian systems.

[11:06] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Taps on his console, Teamworking with V'Tira*

[11:06] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Your assitence is most appreciated sir

[11:06] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Charity brings the Protector in firing range of target Alpha.*

[11:06] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: (( I thought Teamwork means they reroll, not that I roll.

[11:06] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] We're about to engage.

[11:07] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: I see that.

[11:07] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *V'Tira manages to salvage her attempt at scattering the Cardassians' targeting solution on the Protector.*

[11:08] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods- Those algorithms were most effective i shal ccontinue to extrapolate off of thsoe as a basis

[11:09] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *Target beta maneuvers to cover target alpha and opens fire on the Protector with a spiral wave disruptor blast from the forward array.*

[11:09] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Sir, incoming spiral wave disruptor fire."

[11:10] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Taking evasive action!

[11:10] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *The ship stylishly rolls out of the line of fire.*

[11:10] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran eyeballed all the people with chairs enviously.*

[11:11] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Impressive evasion, Wiebe.

[11:11] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -braces herself on her console-

[11:11] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Great flying

[11:11] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *Cathy's console beeps with an incoming hail.*

[11:11] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Yeeeeeeeeeha!

[11:11] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *straps herself in to her chair with the safetybelt*

[11:11] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Sir...the freighter is hailing us!

[11:12] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Put them on screen.

[11:13] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy does so.*

[11:13] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --decides she should put her seat belt on. Looks at V'Tira and over at Aloran as she doesn.--

[11:14] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Definitely..." *Bore smiles, looking at all systems reading green for now.*

[11:14] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "Protector, this is Commander Muri-Giaz of the U.S.S. Amarante. Their last hit has caused a cascade failure in our antimatter containment. We're about two minutes away from a breach."

[11:14] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Prepare your crew for emergency evacuation.

[11:14] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "Understood."

[11:14] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *The channel closes.*

[11:14] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Helm, take us into transporter range. Let's get them off that ship ASAP.

[11:15] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] We're making a run...we should absorb any incoming fire long enough to get them off

[11:15] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: =/\= "Aloran to security teams, prepare to receive and secure evacuees."

[11:15] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: (( Can we transport through ablative armor?

[11:15] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *Target beta swings around the Protector and begins targeting its aft torpedo launchers with disruptor fire.*

[11:15] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Activate the ablative armor for our run. That should let us soak up all incoming fire until the evacuation maneuver is complete.

[11:16] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Activating ablative armor

[11:30] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Transmitting that data to helm now."

[11:30] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -attempts to assit Ezri with the strateic deplpyment of he blasts for max effect-

[11:30] [DOIC6] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Kelvor] Nice work under pressure.

[11:31] [DOIC6] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Thank you." *He smiles.* "Learning a bit more every day."

[11:31] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I have a good feeling about my projections.

[11:31] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore walks back into engineering, standing in front of his usual console.*

[11:32] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she swivels to Tibs-- "I am confident we will make it out alive sir."

[11:32] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Recommend we execute, sir.

[11:32] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *Adds the new information to the deployment of torpedo area of denial areas*

[11:32] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Torpedo pattern is ready, sir.

[11:32] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Charity will have to swing rather close on the flyby

[11:32] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Make it so.

[11:33] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: ((Helm, roll for success when we perform the maneuver.))

[11:33] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Charity begins flying based on the preset path.*

[11:35] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy looks over to Desiree.*

[11:36] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *Everything appears to be going smoothly.*

[11:36] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Pop off those fireworks.

[11:36] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *Keeps updating the field, waiting for the order*

[11:36] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *presses the button to mass launch torpedoes*

[11:37] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --keeps monitoring the sensors, tracking the ships position and looking out for rogue plasma storms.--

[11:37] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Here goes nothing..

[11:38] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *The plasma funnel the Protector swung around doesn't move into the position they predicted, leaving their arc a little too tight. The torpedoes detonate, and while they do disable their pursuers, -

[11:38] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: - the proximity causes a jet of superheated plasma to lash out at the Protector.*

[11:39] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: They have broken persuit, Sir.

[11:39] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Sir, the torpedo detonations has sent a jet of super heated plasma toward us."

[11:39] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Fascinating

[11:39] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Incoming...shifting power to aft shields!

[11:39] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dalby] I'm giving you all she's got!

[11:39] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: The ablatives should be able to withstand that, but keep getting us out of here.

[11:40] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Status of the Cardassian vessels?

[11:40] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Standing by for damage control..."

[11:40] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *Because Charity's arc was too tight, the Protector doesn't escape the plasma and it takes a full impact.*

[11:40] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -braces herself against her console-

[11:40] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: (Everyone roll for getting thrown around like ragdolls.)

[11:40] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she blinks at that, then shrugs and turns to her console.--

[11:40] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: [30]

[11:41] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: (74)

[11:41] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --is snug as a bug in a rug in her seat with a seat belt, goes no where. she again looks toward Aloran and V'Tira.--

[11:42] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *Nalie is thrown across the room to land hard against the wall, but her armor absorbs the impact, leaving her dazed but uninjured.*

[11:42] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Charity bangs her head against her console, while Cathy is throw against the wall console.*

[11:42] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] NALIE!

[11:42] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *gets flung owards her console, moments fro giving it a danish salute the belt kicks in and throws her back in her chair with some sharp wiplash action*

[11:42] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore watches Nalie crash into the wall, cringing.* "Someone check on her! I need to keep my eyes on the damage reports!"

[11:43] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *looks around for a minute*  Wasn't I over there a second ago?

[11:43] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Bore keep us in one piece! *She rushes over to Nalie.*

[11:43] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran was thrown to the side at an awkward angle, giving a bellowing curse as her head smacked into the ground.*

[11:43] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -holds on for dear life to her console throughout the impact-

[11:43] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Yes, Lieutenant!" *He nods at Daniels.*

[11:43] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *The lights flicker and a few consoles spark under the thermal stress.*

[11:43] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tiberius' perfectly chiseled abs strain tightly against the seatbelt, his muscular form becoming very visible under the tight spandex of his uniform*

[11:43] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Yes...how do you feel?

[11:43] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *waves Daniels away as she climbs back to her feet* I'm fine, I'm fine.  *she walks glances at the bulkhead, which now has a Nalie-sized dent in it*

[11:44] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Kobay helps her up and winces at the bulkhead.* I think the ship took it worse than you did.

[11:44] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore curses out and rushes towards the sparking consoles in engineering, trying to keep them under control with his... damage control skills.*

[11:44] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --watches Aloran with some concern.--

[11:44] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Damage report!

[11:44] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *blinks a few times to regain focus* "They are disabeled, Sir"

[11:44] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: ((Yep.))

[11:44] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Do they have life support?

[11:44] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: Yeah... we'll fix it later.  Important things first.  *she goes to work to hold the ship together*

[11:44] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: The cheeseburger continues cheeseburgering

[11:45] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: ((MT))

[11:45] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She grunted in pain, trying to push herself onto her elbow to assess her ankle.*

[11:45] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Yes sir. they have life support. Our shields down to 16. Thermal damage to the hull and some of the eblative armour has fused together under the heat

[11:45] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore takes a sigh of relief.* "Consoles working fine, I got them under support."

[11:46] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Want me to check up on the bridge's condition, in case they need me?"

[11:46] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Wiebe, Baker? status?"

[11:47] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe]...a raging headache.

[11:48] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Please get us out of here before we melt"

[11:48] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy is crumpled against her console, slowly getting to her feet.*

[11:48] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Aside from the local subspace interference from the Badlands all ACCI sysrtems are functioning Captain

[11:48] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Yes, if the Cardassians have life support, I have no problem leaving them here to deal with it.

[11:48] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: Head up there and take care of the EPS conduits that just blew out.

[11:48] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Get us out of the badlands as soon as you can.

[11:48] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: Kelvor, head down to deck 3.

[11:48] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -moves over and helps her up-

[11:49] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Are you injured Lieutenant?

[11:49] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: Dalby, see if you can reroute power around the damaged conduits for now.

[11:49] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *scans cardassians to see if they are relatively safe where they are*

[11:49] [DOIC1] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore comes up on the bridge and heads for the damaged conduits.*

[11:49] [DOIC1] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *He opens the access panel and frowns, starting to do his work.*

[11:49] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy smiles as she accepts V'Tira's help.* A bit banged up...I can stand my post until we are safe.

[11:50] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] We are ten minutes to open space, sir.

[11:50] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods and lets go once she has been steadied and returns to her console-

[11:50] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she swivels around and gets up and crosses the bridge to check on Aloran--

[11:50] [DOIC1] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore takes a steam jet to the face, shouting out in pain.*

[11:50] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Kelvor nods and quickly disappears.*

[11:50] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Are you alive?"

[11:50] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran waved Ezri off.*  "I'm fine," *she grunted, trying to get up with the assistance of the table.*

[11:51] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Sir, Teh cardassians seem to have been disabeled at a bit of a clearing, and as logn as the storm situation does not change they are in no major danger.

[11:51] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Trying...the sheer amount of power rerouting going on right now doesn't allow for a lot of opportunities

[11:51] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She sneered and hissed in pain the moment she put weight on her right foot, however.*

[11:51] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she is waved off.-- "well you seem okay. Do you need a doctor?"

[11:52] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Her nostrils flared for a moment.*  "I can see myself to sickbay."

[11:52] [DOIC1] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore groans at the jet, staring at the conduits angrily.* =^= "Chief, conduits on the bridge are FUBAR. I will need to replicate replacements, but it will take time."

[11:52] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she frowns. -- "You sure you don't want any company."

[11:53] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: =^= Standby. I'll send replacements up.

[11:53] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Positive."  *She looked at Tibs then.*  "Permission to report to sickbay?"

[11:53] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *Off in the distance, the previously forgotten about freighter explodes. It doesn't really change the situation much, but it's sure bright.*

[11:53] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "um okay."

[11:54] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks over at Tibs--

[11:54] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: the freighter has exploded, Sir.

[11:54] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *to Dalby* Prioritize vital systems, cut power to nonessentials if you have to.

[11:55] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dalby] Aye aye

[11:55] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --heads back to her chair.--

[11:55] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Permission grnated.

[11:56] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks over at V'Tira.-- "Aloran seems okay. I wanted you to know so you wouldn't worry."

[11:56] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Five minutes, sir.

[11:56] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran nodded.*  "Thank you captain," *she said, gritting her teeth through the pain as she started limping off the bridge.*

[11:56] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -pauses a moment not looking over before she nods once to Ezri- It is...appreciated Ensign.

[11:57] [DOIC] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *The Protector emerges from the Badlands triumphant, soaring into open space.*

[11:58] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: =/\= "Aloran to Gadsen.  I won't be able to accompany the Commander to the bridge, please escort him to meet with the Captain..."

[11:58] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Gadsen] =^= Who, ma'am?

[11:58] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Gadsen] =^= Who, ma'am?

[11:58] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: We are clear of the subspace interfernce from the Badlands Captain

[11:58] [DOIC5] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "... Me."

[11:59] [DOIC5] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *He arches a brow at the security officer.*

[11:59] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Gadsen] Oh, apologies.

[11:59] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She somehow managed to get to the turbolift without screaming or punching someone.*  =/\= "The person in charge of the people who just got beamed over, Gadsen."

[11:59] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: It's nice to see those familiar stars. Set course for Cardassia, we will undergo repairs en route.

[12:00] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] We are clearing the Badlands...setting a course for Cardassia.

[12:00] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she swivels around-- "Well I think that went well."

[12:00] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: We did in fact survive...so I can not help but agree

[12:00] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She ground her teeth and gripped the railing in the lift as she was zoomed off to the deck that sickbay was located on.*

[12:01] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *A very tall, very muscular Orion man in a command uniform is accompanied onto the Bridge by the security officer.*

[12:01] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at V'Tira.-- "that is always a plus."

[12:01] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Gadsen] If you'll follow me, sir.

[12:01] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I have often considered it to be an asset of high importance

[12:01] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Sir, Activate the cloak, Disable the ablatives and stand down to yellow alert?

[12:01] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: (scratch that lol)

[12:01] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "Commander Asada, I presume?"

[12:02] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran eyeballed the panel she usually kicked in her fits of rage as she passed it.*

[12:03] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Ahh, hello.

[12:03] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Make it so, Lieutenant Clerie.

[12:03] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *shakes his hand*

[12:03] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "A very timely intervention."

[12:03] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "The Ariadne's crew and I are in your debt."

[12:03] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: It's my pleasure to help, Sir.

[12:04] [DOIC] Desiree@Illuice: =^= All hands, Stand down to Yellow alert, Report any damage or injuries to your supperiors. Well done everyone.

[12:04] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *tries to activate the cloak and disable the ablative thingy*

[12:04] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I understand that you are a contact of Tolar Demor.

[12:05] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "We went to the Academy together. The Amarante happened to be in the area to help rebuild the embassy."

[12:06] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *After what seemed like an eternity she limped her way into sickbay, waiting for one of the medical officers to be free.*

[12:06] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "He passed me information on a secure channel that he couldn't risk transmitting without compromising his position."

[12:06] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I would be grateful for any information you have. We are en route to Cardassia now.

[12:06] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "I chartered a transport ship to keep a low profile, but as you may have noticed, that didn't go according to plan."

[12:07] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Shoa] Lieutenant? Please take a seat.

[12:07] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The yellow glow fills the ship.*

[12:07] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Indeed.

[12:07] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Who was attacking you?

[12:07] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Whew.

[12:07] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "They call themselves 'Pride of Cardassia'."

[12:07] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran grunted again and hobbled to an empty biobed.*  "Just a sprain," *she muttered.*

[12:08] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -closes her eyes-

[12:08] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "Anti-Federation radicals who were responsible for the embassy bombing."

[12:08] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Shoa] With respect that is my job, Lieutenant.

[12:08] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *She pulls out a tricorder.*

[12:08] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Hmm. And they're about to attempt a coup on Cardassia.

[12:08] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *Muri nods.* "Their agents are reconfiguring their orbital satellite network to emit a tachyon field that will disrupt subspace enough to prevent warp travel near the inner planets."

[12:08] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "That will prevent forces loyal to the Detapa Council from arriving in time to stop them."

[12:08] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "You're gonna see, it's just a sprain," *she muttered.*  "Had them before, know what they feel like."

[12:09] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "It will also disrupt transporter functionality, but I've got information about a flaw in their sensor systems we may be able to exploit."

[12:09] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *looks over his shoulder* Ensign Tegan, see if you can get some data on those satellites.

[12:09] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Lieutenant V'Tira, you may be needed to reconfigure those satellites.

[12:09] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She was actually right on the money.*

[12:09] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Oooh.

[12:09] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I would appreciate that.

[12:09] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: *He hands Tiberius a PADD.*

[12:09] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Aye sir, I will see what i can dig up."

[12:10] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she accesses the computer.--

[12:10] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Shoa] You are...correct.

[12:10] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She gave Shoa a look.*

[12:10] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -opens her eyes and nods- Of ours captain

[12:10] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: course*

[12:11] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: From what you've told me, it sounds like when we arrive in the system, we need to disable that jamming field so that reinforcements can arrive.

[12:11] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -access all classified data they might have on the network of satellites-

[12:11] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "It's on a closed intranet system, only way in is from the command center in Capitol City."

[12:11] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *She picks out a tool from the biobed and starts running it over her foot.*

[12:12] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "No transporters due to the interference, but we may be able to get a shuttlepod through."

[12:12] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran leaned back on her palms, glaring at the ceiling as she waited.*

[12:13] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tiberius cracks his knuckles.*

[12:13] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at Muri-- "wait, if the only way to access the satellites is through the command center, how are they going to reconfigure them."

[12:13] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Shoa] Patience.

[12:13] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Lieutenant Clerie, prep a strike team. And get my combat armor ready.

[12:13] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Perhaps they have someone inside of the command center loyal to their cause

[12:14] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Saying 'patience' doesn't give anyone patience, you know," *Aloran scowled.*

[12:14] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: .... *swivels in her chair and looks at Tibs* Aye sir.

[12:14] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "Someone high-ranking, too, to get that level of access."

[12:14] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We're going to storm the command complex.

[12:15] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Captain,,might I inquire of the commander a question....a fomrality of course

[12:15] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: =^= Bridge to Gadsen.

[12:15] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Go ahead.

[12:15] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Gadsen] =^= Yes ma'am?

[12:15] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --Ezri considers saying something racist against CArdassians...but for once in her life thinks before she speaks.--

[12:16] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -turns to look to the Commander- ...were you or Mr Demor able to ascertain if these anti federation radicals..were receiveing any outside assitance?

[12:16] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: =^= Please prepare a striketeam along with the captains combat armour for deployment once we reach Cardassia.

[12:16] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "We still haven't been able to figure out where they got the explosives for the embassy bombing."

[12:16] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "But that's the only possible avenue of external influence, and even then, it's not definite."

[12:17] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: SO in theory ...for the record it is still /possible/...they have ouside assitance..yes??

[12:17] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Gadsen] =^= Yes ma'am...shall we involve Delta?

[12:17] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I can check on knowledge battle dot com.. someone there may know something."

[12:17] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Make it so, Tegan.

[12:17] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Shoa] There. It will be sore.

[12:17] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "yes sir."

[12:17] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: =^= Yes, This is very much a job for Deltas.

[12:17] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: The Nah'kul must be behind this.

[12:17] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Gadsen] =^= Understood.

[12:17] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "Possible, yes. Conclusively proven, no."

[12:17] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "So long as it works, I can deal with it," *she said, looking down at her ankle.*

[12:18] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks to the captain- So the investigation can still be considered..ongoing sir

[12:18] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Right. I'm sure our investigation of that command center will yield results.

[12:18] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she accesses knowledge battle dot com for the latest conspiracy theories.--

[12:18] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Shoa] You are free to go.

[12:18] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: However I must point out..there will be Cardassian Military personell at the complex we are about to assault who are not complicite

[12:19] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "I would recommend a more careful approach."

[12:19] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Perhaps "storm" is too strong a word.

[12:19] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: they will and can perceive this strike as an attack by Starfleet

[12:19] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She hopped off the bed and charged back toward the lift with only a grunt of thanks.*

[12:19] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: and thus the Federation...a provocation to war

[12:19] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We will prepare to render aid to the Cardassians.

[12:19] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: By shooting at them alot? That might confuse some of them sir

[12:19] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "perhaps there is another way."

[12:20] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "Let's work on some of the specifics of that plan of yours, shall we?"

[12:20] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: The use of weapons will not be permitted unless the rules of engagement permit.

[12:20] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Of course, Sir.

[12:20] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I defer to your higher rank in this matter.

[12:20] [DOIC1] Muri@Starboard_Nacelle: "Your ready room?"

[12:20] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Let's go. Lieutenant Clerie, you have the bridge.

[12:20] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran stepped back onto the bridge, offering the commander a brief but respectful nod of her head as she passed.*

[12:21] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Yes sir"

[12:21] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -turns back to her console and closes her eyes as she awaits the information ont he command center and the sattellite network to compile-

[12:22] [DOIC4] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: (( one sec I stuck my whole finger in a candle and now its covered in wax

[12:22] [DOIC4] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: (( ok we good

[12:22] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she swivesl around toward Tibs-- "Sir I am not really finding any pertainant information on knowledgebattle dot com. Certainly nothing about the nah'khul being involved in a Cardassian coup attempt.

[12:23] [DOIC4] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tiberius sits down at his desk.*

[12:23] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy facepalms as she walks over to V'Tira.*

[12:23] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I am accessing Intlligence files Now Ensign...onthe command center and the satellite network

[12:23] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *looks at Ezri comming back from her geniouz bubble*

[12:23] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I believe you need not bother with your tin foil hat this evening

[12:23] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "So, anyone care to fill me in on what I missed?"

[12:24] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "At times I forget that it is traditionally accepteble to refere to any supperior officer as sir, regardless of gender"

[12:24] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: currently....We are going to storm the Cardassion command complex to access their sattellite network and save them fromthmselves by shooting at them a lot

[12:25] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -finishes filling in Aloran-

[12:25] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: No, That plan was thankfully scrapped

[12:25] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at Desiree.-- "Sorry do you want me to call you ma'am sir?"

[12:25] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *As the episode rolls on, it transitions to a social as the crew preps for the coming mission.*

[12:25] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Actually it is currently being..retuned

[12:26] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Thats true, To somethign involving a lot less unessesary shooting, I hope

[12:26] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "...Yeah, maybe I need to be sitting in on that meeting," *Aloran put her palm to her forehead.*

[12:26] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy whispers something.*

[12:26] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I stand by my belief..that shooting at them....will confuse those Cardassion soldiers not implicit in the radicals plan on how we are trying to help them

[12:27] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Tegan, I prefere ma'am, or Lieutenant I think.

[12:28] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "yes sir...I mean ma'am..lieutenant ma'am."

[12:28] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -whisper something back-

[12:29] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Thou in general I prefere the less formality of it when not absolutely nessesary. Anyways! Why would you seek such information on knowledge battle?

[12:29] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Ezri- Perhaps try..Sir Ma'am...or Ma'am Sir?

[12:30] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA] What is...k-knowledge battle?

[12:30] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks a brow at Cathy-

[12:30] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She rubbed her forehead.  Why had she thought it would be a good idea to come back to the bridge?*

[12:31] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Well I find that many of the bloggers there seems to have access to some pretty obscure information. I mane the whole temporal cold war thing with the Nahkhul turned out to be true."

[12:31] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: A source of 'information' unsupported by proper research..and is largely Suggestive and is speculative Hera

[12:31] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Aloran, Deltas are being prepared for a deployment on Cardassia, I udnerstand if you wish to oversee them.

[12:32] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA} You have a massive computer d-database...why would you use this?

[12:32] [DOIC1] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Yeah, I'll do that," *she said, glad for an excuse to get the hell out of there as she turned and speed-walked to the armoury.*

[12:32] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Well yeah. Certainly it has to be approached with a certain level of skepticism."

[12:32] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *smiles some to Aloran, being confident in gadsen but feeling Alorans pain*

[12:33] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks right at Cathy now-

[12:33] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Wiebe, what is our ETA to Cardassia?

[12:33] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy facepalms.*

[12:33] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "You know I could search Starfleet intelligence databases if my security clerance was raised."

[12:33] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Six days, ma'am.

[12:34] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -softly- Catherine..how hard did you strike your head aganst the console?

[12:34] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: ... How badly damaged are our engines?

[12:34] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] *softly* It hurt?

[12:34] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -reaches up to check her scalp for injury-

[12:35] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] It seems we will able to maintain maximum warp for now.

[12:35] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: And... Then going from the badlands to Cardassia takes six days?

[12:35] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Perhas a trip to sickbay might be in order..this is a sizeable lump Catherine

[12:35] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at Desiree-- "I mean can I at least have a level 2 security clearance?"

[12:35] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] I do not expect us to be able to maintain it for the entire journey, ma'am.

[12:36] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks to Desiree- No she can not

[12:36] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I don't think it's that small.

[12:36] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *sizable

[12:36] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Still six days? Please run a diagnostics on teh navcomputer

[12:36] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Yes ma'am.

[12:36] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Cathy- I am concerned..you are not making much senseperhaps just to be certain?

[12:36] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Baker, Go to sickbay, zap zap. Ezri, I do not handle clereance levels, I am only a LT.

[12:37] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --has a pouty face.-- "Sorry ma'am."

[12:37] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I am fine...

[12:37] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran burst into the armoury.*  "Status?"

[12:37] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Desiree- She struck her head hard enought o leave a lump

[12:37] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: I love when you say Yes ma'am with that entusiasm, Baker!

[12:37] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: and has..difficulty making coherent statements

[12:38] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy sighs.* She is deflecting...*She lowers her head and begins heading towards sickbay.*

[12:38] [DOIC5] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Aloran burst into the armoury.*  "Status?"

[12:38] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dom] Armed and ready, ma'am.

[12:39] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -returns back to her console and checks on her data compling-

[12:39] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: While im not convinced it can take six days to get to cardassia, I do think its enough time to call up The Beta-Lings.

[12:39] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at V'Tira.-- "Anyway, the reason I go to the knowledgebattle dot com is because I can't access any of the good stuff on the Starfleet database."

[12:39] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks over to her- It is highly detailed ''good stuff' too

[12:40] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dom] What can we do for ya?

[12:40] [DOIC5] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Let's stay that way, then.  We're not going into battle just yet, but seeing as we just took on some passengers that certain elements are very interested in taking from us, let's stay on alert."

[12:40] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: V'Tira. Please call up Beta.

[12:40] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she turns back to her console with a huff, looking even more pouty.-- "I bet it is. Probably all that project Avalon and Magellen stuff."

[12:40] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Aye Sir Ma'am -calls up beta watch on all decks-

[12:40] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Leo] Aye aye ma'am

[12:41] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: ...and Project Chronoton

[12:41] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: I miss being an ensign.

[12:41] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: V'Tira!!!

[12:41] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: You cann ot mention project C!! you know this.

[12:41] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she crosses her arms and looks even more pouty.--

[12:41] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -turns and bows her head-  A slip of the tongue Ma'am sir.will not happen again

[12:41] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA] Why must you l-look at things you aren't supposed to see?

[12:42] [DOIC5] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She nodded.*  "Seems you have everything handled then.  I'll get outta your way and let you have the Delta kingdom back."  *She smirked slightly as she went to go.*

[12:42] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Because! the thrill of the unknown the ecitment of doing the forbidden."

[12:42] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Now V'Tira, If you do not behave with your sir ma'am ing. I will ahve to submit a high level 77-8B Report for yoru breach of top secret endeveours.

[12:42] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *A few of the Delta whistle as she turns her back.*

[12:43] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: So you are saying you show a preference then for <a'am sir?

[12:43] [DOIC5] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She looked back at them with a look that coule curdle milk.*

[12:43] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Can I at least get a day pass to the tmeporal investigations files."

[12:43] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: There are no such files Ensign

[12:43] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The guilty parties have massive smirks on their faces.*

[12:44] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Oh don't give me that I have ssen the ones that people have leaked onto knowledge battle dot com."

[12:44] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: I said I prefere Ma'am or Lieutenant. *she winks* And I think after dinner I need to...

[12:44] [DOIC5] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Chavez.  Think your minions would like to join my sec team for their run?"

[12:44] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Ensign..think of that

[12:44] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dom] When? We're a bit preoccupied at the moment.

[12:45] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: If such investigations truly exsisted....and were successful on a temproal basis...then the event needing correction did not occur....thus no need for the investigation and no investigation means no

[12:45] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: files.

[12:45] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: I hate temporal mechanics.

[12:45] [DOIC5] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Well no sh--- I can see that," *she said, catching herself.*  "When this mess is over."

[12:45] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dom] Sure.

[12:46] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dom] If you want us to embarrass them.

[12:46] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Then why even have temporal investigations?"

[12:46] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I am unaware of any such organization

[12:46] [DOIC5] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "That's the whole damn point," *Aloran shrugged as she took off.*

[12:47] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *There is a collective laugh as she exits.*

[12:47] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she glares at V'Tira.-- "It doesn't matter when I get my temporal observatory online.."

[12:47] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Beta watch arrives on the bridge and begins relieving officers.*

[12:47] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Is it not iligal with temporal observatories?

[12:47] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: However if they were needed...and exsisted..they have yet to solve the problems they are investigating...and thus again..there would be not files as of yet

[12:47] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: ".. I will get some answers."

[12:48] [DOIC5] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She smirked very slightly as she stepped out into the hall and headed for the mess.*

[12:48] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I can give you answers

[12:48] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: What answers do you want, Tegan?

[12:48] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: You just never asked

[12:48] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *Gets up from ehr chair and hands the bridge to the new watch*

[12:48] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she shrugs-- "Everything mostly."

[12:48] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -begins to turn her station over to the relief-

[12:48] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: that is simple..the answer is 42

[12:49] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Kurtz] Ma'am.

[12:49] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "that makes no sense."

[12:49] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Tegan, even with the speed I can transfer pure concepts trough telepathy, it owuld take soooooo long to transfer 'everything' to you

[12:49] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she stands uo.--

[12:49] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: perhaps you never truly understood your own question in regards to everything

[12:49] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I'll be in the lab, working on my temporal observatory."

[12:49] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Once you have the question fully understood the answer 42 will logically make sense

[12:49] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Tegan, Are you sure those things are not iligal?

[12:50] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "with my stupid level one security clerance."

[12:50] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: It is hardly stupid

[12:50] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "what things?"

[12:50] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: only 12 percent of the federation has such

[12:50] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Temporal observatories?

[12:50] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks to Desiree- Time will tell

[12:50] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I don't think they exist, how could they be illegal?"

[12:51] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: True... But if time tells some time-troll jsut removes it and we never know

[12:51] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks to Ezri- Time will tell

[12:51] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she shrugs--

[12:51] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Thenit never exsisted for you to be concerned about it

[12:51] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Something can be iligal even if they are not actually existing.

[12:51] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: What does a temporal observatory even do?

[12:52] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [HERA} What are...temporal mechanics?

[12:52] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: They repair time Hera

[12:52] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I am pretty sure that it would not be illegal ma'am. But, I can look into it."

[12:52] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: They give me a headache

[12:52] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: i find them to be rather fascinating...given I have traveled through time

[12:52] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Alright! I jsut do not want you to get in to truble. With temporal afairs or with... something else

[12:53] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Now the office of Tempral Affairs exsists as an organization

[12:53] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Really, the name is fancy but theidea is little more than a specialized scanner for temproal activity."

[12:53] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "So it does not look in to the future?"

[12:53] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks a brow- You are seeking travelers in time....

[12:54] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Ezri..that is...quite brilliant

[12:54] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "oh no, I wouldn't even know how to make something that cool."

[12:54] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Then it does not sound very iligal. but do not quote me on it"

[12:55] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "although I did deside to make the memory core for my temporal scanner temporally out of phase so it would be immune to time line changes."

[12:55] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "that is the hang up, the resst is eay."

[12:55] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: **easy

[12:56] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "You made a memory core outside of time?"

[12:56] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Ezri?

[12:56] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I haven't exactly made  it yet."

[12:56] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "I see"

[12:56] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "it is in the design phase."

[12:57] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Are you working together with some people on this project?"

[12:57] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she shakes her head-- "no most people just think its nuts."

[12:57] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -hugs her PADD to her chest and quiety departs the bridge-

[12:57] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Hera is sort of helping me."

[12:58] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: V'Tira?

[12:58] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I can send you a report on it all if you want me to ma'am."

[12:59] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "HERA seems quiet lovely. and sure, Do send me a report... just not to much timey-whimy things, I can not understand it even when I try"

[12:59] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Down in the mess hall, Aloran glared at the replicator.*

[12:59] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Well the report wouldn't have a lot of timey whimey stuff in it, just some technical specs."

[1:00] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "sure... I guess that could be interesting?"

[1:00] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -enters and moves to the replicator ordering a meal of plomek soup and chocolate chip cookies and a glass of ice water-

[1:00] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Lieutenant...what did the replicator do to make you angry at it?

[1:00] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She eyed V'Tira.*  "Nothing.  I'm thinking about what I want."

[1:01] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: How is your injury?

[1:01] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Just a sprain.  Barely worth leaving the bridge for it," *she muttered.*

[1:02] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: It is gratfiying to hear you were not seriously injured

[1:03] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Yeah.  Well good job not going flying when we got hit," *she shrugged."

[1:03] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Im hungry, and something very lovely to eat is waiting I hope. What about you Tegan?"

[1:04] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I am heading down to the lab. to talk to Hera and work on my scanner."

[1:04] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods- I am just physically stronger than you..otherwise i too wouldnt have been flung to the deck

[1:04] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: Lovely, See you later then *smiels warmly to Ezri*

[1:04] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: an unfrtunate side effect for our consoles not providing chair with restraints

[1:04] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --smiles her creepy Ezri smile at Dersire.--

[1:05] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She mashed the button then.*  "Ratamba stew," *she ordered, looking at V'Tira.*  "Definite design flaw.  We have room for chairs, too."

[1:05] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Have fun!"

[1:05] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Indeed....I believe the thought was you would be needed elsewhere in an alert and .my position did not exsist when the ship was designed

[1:05] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -takes her tray and goes off to find a seat

[1:06] [DOIC4] Desiree@Illuice: *Walks in to sickbay* "Baker?"

[1:06] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy looks up from the biobed.* Yes?

[1:06] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Still stupid..." *she muttered as she took her own tray, scanning the mess hall for a familiar face so she'd have an excuse not to sit with the vulcan.*

[1:06] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -sis down with her tray and looks down at her food and closes her eyes-

[1:07] [DOIC4] Desiree@Illuice: "How are you, love?"

[1:08] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: I am fine as I told you.

[1:08] [DOIC4] Desiree@Illuice: "Then why are you still here?"

[1:08] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy gets up and sits on the side of the bed.*

[1:08] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Grace] We were just treating her for a mild concussion.

[1:09] [DOIC4] Desiree@Illuice: "Then its good you where sent here"

[1:09] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I am telling you...there is something wrong with V'Tira.

[1:09] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Not spotting him, she cursed to herself and reluctantly headed to join V'Tira's table.*

[1:09] [DOIC4] Desiree@Illuice: "What is that, love?"

[1:10] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I don't know.

[1:10] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] It is just...I know it!

[1:11] [DOIC4] Desiree@Illuice: "Alright, that does not leave a lot to go on love"

[1:11] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I know...

[1:11] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I...think she is hiding it. She would do it well.

[1:12] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "...Would be pretty easy to have the Engineers put some in, though," *she said after a moment of awkward silence before she poked at her meal with a spoon.*

[1:12] [DOIC4] Desiree@Illuice: "Yes, The thign with Keizal took a heavy prise on her"

[1:13] [DOIC4] Desiree@Illuice: "Anyways, I been thinking of something"

[1:13] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Seeee?

[1:13] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -opens her eyes and looks up to nods- Indeed one might think so. So you have setled on a meal then...s it agreeable?

[1:14] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "My mother makes it better, but it's passable," *she shrugged.*

[1:14] [DOIC4] Desiree@Illuice: "See what?"

[1:14] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: May I inquire of what it consists of?

[1:16] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Just a bit of..."  *She started listing whatever Bajoran ingredients made up Ratamba stew.*

[1:16] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Was it a childhood favorite of yours?

[1:16] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] That I was right? What were you thinking?

[1:16] [DOIC4] Desiree@Illuice: "Thinking in regards to what?"

[1:17] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She peered at V'Tira.*  "Actually, I fuc-- I hated it when I was a kid."

[1:17] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] You said you had beaen thinking of something?

[1:18] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: So why do you eat it now? have your tases changed in some way?

[1:18] [DOIC4] Desiree@Illuice: "Yes, when you are cleared here we will talk to V'Tira about it"

[1:18] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She gave V'Tira a flat look.*  "No, I still hate it, I eat it to punish myself, obviously."

[1:19] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: That does not seem logical...what offense have you committed against yourself?

[1:19] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Ah.

[1:19] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Grace] She is free to go.

[1:19] [DOIC4] Desiree@Illuice: "Than kyou Grace, Lets go love!"

[1:20] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She heaved a sigh.*  "My tastes changed.  Like they always do when you get older."  *She took a heaping bite of stew.*

[1:20] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: and this was the offense..the evolution of your taste receptor cells?

[1:21] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Again this does not seem logical....especially in light as you said..tastes change as a subject grows older

[1:21] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: Hello V'Tira, Hello Aloran!

[1:21] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "What?  Why would I--- it's called sarcasm."  *She sighed again.*  "My fault, obviously."

[1:22] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Hello Catherine, Desiree..-to Aloran- No the error was mine, sarcasm is difficult for me to detect often in some indivduals

[1:22] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She looked up at the two others with a nod.*

[1:23] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: "How are you two?"

[1:23] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Cathy- What did they say in sickbay.did they fix your head?

[1:23] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Still here."

[1:23] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Desiree- I am well

[1:24] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: "Somehow I dubt that. Are we interupting?"

[1:24] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I had a minor concussion.

[1:24] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Nothing that didn't deserve to be interrupted anyway," *she shrugged.*

[1:25] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: I am curous Aloran....are you homesick?

[1:25] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "We were literally just on DS9, why would I be?"

[1:26] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: So you had a chance to return home? I would not know..i spent most of that time..recoverying from my ...injuries

[1:26] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She pushed her food around the bowl.*  "I didn't go planetside, but we were close enough..."

[1:27] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: V'Tira? Would you be open to moving formal quarters?

[1:27] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks a brow and slowly nods- well I am quite capable of much heavy lifting..are we to offer such services to incoming personell and those seeking to change their quarters?

[1:28] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: I would like you to move in with Baker. Unless you two mind horribly.

[1:28] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -cants her head- Curious..you are no longer going to be staying with her?

[1:29] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: There is specific quarters for the XO. Currently I use it only as my office, wich is a little bit of a waste of space. And I still hope we can all live together, Its more then anything a formal >

[1:29] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: > rearangement.

[1:30] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: What of Keizal?

[1:31] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Uh."  *Aloran stared at them as they had this discussion right in front of her.*

[1:31] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: If she returns to active duty, We can review her situation. But that does nto seem to be in the close future.

[1:31] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: When

[1:31] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: When she returns to active duty

[1:31] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: I am not sure she wishes to return to active duty -when- she recovers.

[1:32] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] It was a...very traumatic experience.

[1:32] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Indeed...however I find no error in your logic..I have no objections

[1:32] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Indeed...Keizal...was throughly traumatized Catherine

[1:32] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: Lovely!

[1:33] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She stared at Desiree now.*

[1:33] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy furrows her brow.*

[1:33] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Do you have any objections Catherine?

[1:33] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: *looks at Aloran, a bit conserned what she did to earn the stares*

[1:34] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "...I can't even deal with you people."  *She got up and took her tray to another table.*

[1:34] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks to Cathy and Desiree- I believe you both owe her an apology

[1:35] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Ummm...what did I do?

[1:35] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I have no objections.

[1:36] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: I am not certain...with Aloran, she can be quite unpredictable..however before you arrived we had been sharing a rather agreeable discussion. So I must surmise her recent outburst just now had little

[1:36] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: to do with me

[1:36] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: Indeed...

[1:37] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: Aloran, I am sorry

[1:37] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy leans down to place two fingers on V'Tira's hand.*

[1:37] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks a brow at the touch and closes her fist to allow two of her own selnder fingers to remain in contact with Cathy's-

[1:38] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She glanced at Des.*  "Don't apologise.  If I was in some weird-ass three-way thing that made no damned sense to anyone else I would probably act like no one else existed too."

[1:38] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Catherine...I believe you are to apologize

[1:39] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: as well

[1:39] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy nods and removes her hand, walking over.*

[1:39] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks down to her food and once more closes her eyes-

[1:39] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I apologize, Lieutenant. I did not mean to ignore you.

[1:40] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She waved a hand.*  "It's whatever."

[1:40] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: *blinks* "I really have had no intention of making you feel ignored,"

[1:41] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy nods.*

[1:41] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: "It is clearly not whatever, And I am really sorry that I have made you feel ignored"

[1:41] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She huffed through her nostrils.*  "It doesn't even matter.  Leave me alone."

[1:42] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -opens her eyes and looks over- Ladies...comeback here.

[1:43] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: "As you wish, Aloran. But I am eally sorry" *walks away to leave the bajoran be*

[1:43] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: DO not yet sit

[1:43] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: huddle up -gesutres for them to move closer-

[1:44] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Vieya seemed content to stew with her stew.*

[1:44] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -says quietly just to them- I think perhaps the term being ignored is upsetting her over and over each time either of you say this...once she says okay...perhas them merely invite her back with a

[1:45] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: promise of inclusion and neutral topics for all invloed to partake in

[1:46] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks from one to the other-

[1:46] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: *Lower* "I think there is some other issue, It is why I sugested her checking the deltas to let her off the bridge, but I am not sure what it is"

[1:47] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy nods.*

[1:47] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Well it is difficult to ascertain such if you containously anger her yes?

[1:49] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: *Low* "I am unsure what I do to upset her constantly aside from... oh.. Yes that makes quiet some sense"

[1:50] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy tilts her head.*

[1:50] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods- So go back..do not apologize again..ether of you and offer her a chance to join a neural  and mutually sharing conversation. Sooth the hostile emotions logically with calm..not condesending...

[1:51] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: calm emotions...it is a tactically logical approach to oe you have offended...the cure for being ignored...is often inclusioon

[1:52] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: *Low* "I do not think it is that I do that make her dislike me"

[1:53] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Well currently it is logical to assume that just now...she felt ignored

[1:53] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: so off set this by being inclusive...politely

[1:53] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: do not make it feel like charity

[1:54] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Make her understand we truly wish her to return and be socially inclusive

[1:55] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Okay.

[1:55] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: It can never hurt to try....

[1:55] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Logically that is

[1:57] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: I am not sure I agree...

[1:57] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: In what way?

[1:57] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: She was ignored yes?

[1:58] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks a brow- Oh..Catherine...not alone...

[1:58] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: *Low* "Yes, she was.

[1:58] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -said quietly to just Desiree-

[1:58] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: *walks over to Baker*

[1:58] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Vieya?

[1:59] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She glanced up.*  "What?"

[1:59] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] We would like for you to join us for a meal...and conversation?

[2:00] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She tapped her spoon on the edge of her bowl.*  "No you wouldn't," *she said flatly.*  "You don't have to bother.  I'm about to head back to my quarters anyway."

[2:02] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: "I don't agree. I would want it and it is hardly about bother."

[2:02] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] We would like it very much.

[2:03] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She gave them both a look.*

[2:05] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Let's not kid ourselves here, alright?  I'm fine.  Go back to your collective and quit worrying about me."

[2:06] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: "I am an idiot I get that, But I would like it, even if just for a brief moment. But I do understand why you would not want it and if that is really wnat you want. I will stop torturing you."

[2:07] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Never said you were an idiot," *she said simply.*

[2:08] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks down at her food and closes her eyes-

[2:08] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: "No, You did indeed not say it. But it is fair I been quiet the idiot more then once today, and I can keep reating how I am sorry but Id think it hardly makes it better, just tiresome. So ill just >

[2:09] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: > just say that I would like you to join us, even if jsut for a while. but if you do really not wish to. I understand why"

[2:11] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She ground her teeth, heaving a sigh through her nose.*  "You don't want to have a 'conversation' with me right now.  Trust me."  *She got to her feet.*

[2:13] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: "I do. but as promised, I will not torture you futher. Good night"

[2:15] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy sighs and turns away.*

[2:15] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Got better shit to do anyway," *she growled as she turned and headed into the hallway.*

[2:15] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] We tried...

[2:15] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -rises and goes after Aloran-

[2:15] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Lietenant?

[2:16] [DOIC3] Desiree@Illuice: Good night V'Tira, Good night baker.

[2:16] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She paused in her stride and glanced over her shoulder.*  "What?"

[2:16] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: A question and then i wil leave you be

[2:16] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She sighed.*  "What?" *she repeated.*

[2:16] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: This stew....the recipe...can it be made without meat?

[2:17] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She stared at V'Tira for a moment.*

[2:17] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "...Yeah.  Sure."

[2:17] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: If you have a suggested version of the recipe I would be honored to try it

[2:19] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *She flexed her jaw a moment before she finally spoke.*  "Eastern province makes the best version.  Don't tell anyone from my home town that I said that though."

[2:19] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: nods- Your secret will remain safe...thank you Aloran for your advice. I will try it my next dinner

[2:20] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Yeah."  *There was another pause before finally,*  "Let them know it's nothing personal.  I'm just not in the mood any more."

[2:20] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -hesitates and nods- I will explain it to them....as I did when i tod them what they did was unacceptable

[2:21] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: I ruly was curious in your meal and its history

[2:21] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: truly*

[2:22] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Yeah..."  *For a moment, she actually looked like she didn't want to throw V'Tira through the wall.*

[2:22] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "Well, I'll let you get back to that."

[2:22] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: perhaps a conversation for another time...may your mood imprvove and may you rest well

[2:22] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods her head to her-

[2:23] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: "I doubt either's going to happen, but appreciate the sentiment.  Take care of yourself."

[2:23] [DOIC3] Aloran Vieya@liorexus: *Without another word she turned and resumed her rhino charge through the halls.*

[2:23] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods again and without another word heads for the mess hal

[2:25] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -enters and looks around- Curious...and now I have misplaced Catherine and Desiree

[2:25] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -resumes her seat and looks down to her food and closes her eyes-

[2:25] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy once again places two fingers on her hand.*

[2:26] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -opens her eyes and looks to her- Where did you go Catherine?

[2:26] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: Looking for Desiree.

[2:26] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker]

[2:27] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: She left? Was she called to the bridge or the captain?

[2:28] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I do not believe so.

[2:28] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Are you going to eat?

[2:28] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I was going to ask you the same question.

[2:28] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -points to her tray-

[2:29] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Honestly I am more concerned about her than hungry.

[2:29] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: In what way?

[2:29] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] She left suddenly and without warning.

[2:30] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: perhaps you should check on her ?

[2:30] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I am not sure she wishes to be found.

[2:32] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Why would that be she seemed fine

[2:32] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] =^= Catherine to Desiree

[2:32] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: =^= Desiree here.

[2:33] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Where did you go?

[2:33] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: =^=

[2:33] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks down at her food and ccloses her eyes-

[2:33] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: =^= I am in my room, why?

[2:34] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy looks over at V'Tira and frowns.* =^= Why are you not with us?

[2:35] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: =^= I have work to do, We will see eachother tonight.

[2:36] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks up at this opening her eyes- curious

[2:36] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: Curious?

[2:36] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker]

[2:36] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Indeed....quite the reversal of her behavior prior to the interaction with aloran

[2:37] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] =^= You seemed eager to eat with V'Tira and I previously.

[2:37] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I find you falling asleep in the mess hall also curious. *She says softly.*

[2:38] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: =^= "I am always excited to spend time with you and V'Tira. However more then anything I needed some worked sorted out"

[2:39] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks a brow- I was not falling asleep Catherine

[2:39] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] That is not what it appeared.

[2:40] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] =^= When did this work pop up? Were you contacted between then and now?>

[2:40] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: My eyes closed..nothing more

[2:40] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] You do not need to hide from me.

[2:41] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: I am not hding..I am in plain sight

[2:42] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy reaches over to place a hand on her leg.*

[2:42] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: =^= "Baker, there is always work, Thou I had planed to have a quick dinner I lost my apetite and had achived my other reason to bring you in with me, So I proceeded to point two on the agenda. Don't >

[2:42] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: > worry about it"

[2:42] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] =^= It is in my nature to worry in particular about you.

[2:42] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -rests two of her slender fingers gnetly over Catherne's hand-

[2:43] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: =^= "If you need to worry, love. Worry about V'Tira"

[2:43] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] =^= I already have that covered.

[2:44] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: =^= "Good, Anything else?"

[2:44] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -qurisk a brow at this-

[2:44] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] =^= Nothing other than my desire for you to eat with us.

[2:45] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: =^= "We can have night snack or something later when I get my apetite back, before bed"

[2:45] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] =^= Okay.

[2:47] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy leans over to kiss V'Tira.*

[2:49] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -returns the kiss gently yt quickly given it is in public-

[2:49] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy smiles and leans back.*

[2:49] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] We should eat and go to her.

[2:52] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: We should go to her..now

[2:52] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy nods and stands up.*

[2:52] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -joins her=

[2:52] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy takes her hand.*

[2:53] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -accpets her hand and walks with her0

[2:54] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy steals a longer kiss as the turbolift closes.*

[2:54] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -slips her arms around Cathy's neck and returns her kiss deeply-

[2:55] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker]...might not make it there.

[2:56] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: Oh I am sure...you would prefer we did.....Desiree sooke to me about plans for you

[2:56] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy's eyes go wide.*

[2:56] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -calm and even tone still- Shall we? Desire is waiting...and needs some support

[2:57] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *She nods and breaks the kiss, heading out.*

[2:57] [DOIC3] V'Tira@Isis.: -composes herself and follows-

[2:58] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy walks in.*

[2:58] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: *works on stuffs*

[2:58] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -stumbles enterig the room boucning off the doors frame sighty as she tries to enter with Catherine-

[2:59] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy immediately turns and grabs V'Tira, steadying her.*

[2:59] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -looks to her- I am fine Caherine, I only stumbled

[2:59] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Most unlike you.

[3:00] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: Yet not an impossible situation.

[3:00] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy leans in for another kiss.* Why do you insist on hiding...

[3:01] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -returns the kiss and then adds with a hint of impishnes- I am not hiding Catherine Anyone who knows me has noiced by bisexual preferences

[3:01] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: by-my

[3:02] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] That is /so/ not what I meant...and I did not know you enjoyed men as well

[3:02] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods- Indeed, I dated during my tenure at Starfleet academy

[3:03] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: *continues working on writing a report*

[3:03] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy reaches up to touch her cheek.* How much sleep have you averaged since the battle?

[3:04] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: I am unaware of any change statistically to my average sleep times Catherine

[3:04] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Neither was I...but you show signs of it

[3:05] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: Do I?

[3:05] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Yes.

[3:07] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: Curious...however are we not here for Desiree?

[3:07] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: "It is not about the ammount of time sleeping. It is how good the time spent sleeping is. After the Arden, I sleept endlessly, but never well"

[3:08] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] She is right.

[3:08] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy moves over behind Desiree and wraps her arms around her.(*

[3:08] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: Inded Desiree...however I am neither Human nor am I Betazed

[3:08] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Yet you require a certain standard of sleep regardless.

[3:09] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: "No, But you are a species that require sleep?"

[3:09] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -slips up onto the desk and slowly crosses her legs looking down at Desiree-

[3:10] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy looks down at V'Tira's legs.*

[3:10] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: Far less than either of you...it is of little concern

[3:10] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] So you admit you have been achieved less restful sleep.

[3:10] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -runs her egs slowly up and down one another in a enticing little cricket like motion for Catherine-

[3:11] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy watches, entranced.*

[3:11] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: That is incoreect i have said no such thing

[3:11] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -reaches over to let two of her fingertip softly down along Desiree's neck to distract her from her work-

[3:12] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy smiles.*

[3:12] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: "I am really worried about you, V'Tira"

[3:13] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: I am well Desiree -contonues her fingertips gentle caresses along her neck and gently along her jawline-

[3:14] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: I do not wish for either of you to worry about me

[3:14] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: "Im sorry, but I do not belive you, love"

[3:15] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: You doubt that i do not wish for either of you to be concerned?

[3:15] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: "No, that part I belive, but I do not belive that you are well"

[3:16] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy nods.*

[3:16] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: I do not know what you wish me to say then

[3:17] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy walks over and wraps her arms around V'Tira.* We are alone...you can be...blunt.

[3:19] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -rests her head to Cathy's shoulder and says softly- What you are asking of me..is almost impossible to explain

[3:19] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy leans down to kiss her neck.* Try...please...

[3:20] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -even softer- ....when isleep..there is now..only the...void

[3:20] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Void?

[3:21] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: The nothing -actually shudders into Catherine-

[3:21] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: "Not even faces?"

[3:21] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy embraces her tightly.* Have you spoken to the Counselor

[3:21] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: ?

[3:21] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: ...ininite ..nothing Desiree

[3:21] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: There is not point Catherine

[3:21] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: no point

[3:22] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Is this not part of her purpose?

[3:22] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] She has been helpful to Desiree.

[3:22] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: Then sleep with me, and let me lend you my dreams... And while I do like to be your sexual dreams, such was not the meaning of this senstense.

[3:22] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: She would have no common eperience in which to advise on this

[3:22] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy blushes deeply.*

[3:23] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -seems confused by this-

[3:23] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: You do not find...being dreamed about..pleasing?

[3:23] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Me?

[3:24] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: "Never mind love. But do let me share my dreams with you as you sleep"

[3:26] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: I...can not Desiree...ever ...since the batte at rest...i do not hear you or Catherine any longer

[3:26] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy looks horrified at this and immediately kisses her.*

[3:27] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -cuddles into Cathy and adds- this...only happens...when I am at rest....if i am to hear either of you i must be awake

[3:28] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: Then let me try something active, love.

[3:29] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: Of course, I would trust you to try anything Desiree

[3:29] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: *gets up* Please lay down and try to sleep

[3:29] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy releases V'Tira and steps back.*

[3:30] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -sips down and starts towards the bed and stops-

[3:32] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: "What is amiss, love?"

[3:32] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: Nothing, forgive my hesitation -heads over to the bed though slightly paler than usual-

[3:33] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: "You are paler, love. Please tell me?"

[3:33] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -clearly trying not to show her fear her jaw tightens- Love, what would you truly have me say?

[3:34] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy observes from a distance, clearly concerned.*

[3:35] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: *kneels down next to Vtira and places on hand on V'Tiras forehead and one on her tummy. begining to focus on Betazoid teleatic techniques* "Remember, I love you"

[3:35] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: For me this is never a doubt

[3:36] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: Now sleep, love. I will be here

[3:37] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -closes her eyes and after several moments /weeks/ of exhaustion and of no sleep washes over her struggle with her terror and she is swept away into sleep...

[3:39] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: *tries to force parts of her own concious thoughts on to V'Tira, to replace her dreams with what she wishes to share with her. focusing on some hybrid of a ritual and meditation*

[3:42] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -sighs an almost contented sigh as Desiree's thought and dreams merge witt he shattered remenants of her own mind as she sleeps..easing her into a gentle REM stage of sleep-

[3:42] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy beams at her success.*

[3:44] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: "You should join her love. I need some hours to get used to this before I can relax some, but I wont be good conversation company meanwhile"

[3:44] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy leans in to kiss her. * I wasn't thinking about conversation..

[3:45] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: *weakly answers the kiss* "No, But not now love. I need my focus for Vee"

[3:45] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy looks sad but nods and joins V'Tira on the bed.*

[3:46] [DOIC5] V'Tira@Isis.: -immediately and warmly cuddles into Catherine as she often does and sighs softly-

[3:46] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy smiles and returns the cuddle, her arms wrapped around V'Tira in a supportive manner.*

[3:46] [DOIC5] Desiree@Illuice: "Don't be sad love. I love you very much, and I will join you in an hour or two, and when Vee has her energy back we can enjoy eachother company more actively"

[3:47] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] I look forward to it.
