Protector 5/18

[9:06] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The STAR TREK: PROTECTOR theme begins to play...*

[9:07] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *A brief flashback is shown, the Protector is seen leaving the Citadel and warping back into
the void of the Large Magellanic Cluster. As we reach realtime, the Protector is at high warp as Desiree be

[9:07] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: begins her opening log...*

[9:09] [DOIC] Desiree@Illuice: =^= "XOs log, stardate 95376.22. We have been sent by the citadel to investigate a grumbeled long range
transmission the citadel picked up, so far we do not know what it is, but I hope we will soon >

[9:09] [DOIC] Desiree@Illuice: > fine out. For now it has been a quiet trip, Hopefully it says that way"

[9:10] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Marcus was at the activity table, reviewing his predecessor's notes with an increasingly odd
look on his face.*

[9:11] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *In engineering, Kobay hands Nalie a PADD.* I think it's safe to say we escaped the nightmare
on 220.

[9:11] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *In sickbay, the nurses are busy running routine diagnostics on the biobeds.*

[9:11] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore is looking at his screen, leaned on a column.*

[9:12] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *looks over the padd* What nightmare?

[9:13] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: *reads over some documents letting the nurses do their thing*

[9:13] [DOIC4] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *stands in the mensa with a brandnew cup he had brought with him on the ship. It fits 0,85
Liters of Liquid, black colored, with some golden lasered lettering. He puts the cup onto the replicator*

[9:13] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *had her focus and her wits about her as she was at the helm as they went at warp eight , heading to
their destination to find the source of the signal*

[9:13] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He was checking the emergency repair kits cheerfully in the corner.*

[9:13] [DOIC4] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *messhall mt*

[9:13] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he yawned* Yeah what nightmare?

[9:14] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Helm, ETA to primary destination?"

[9:14] [DOIC4] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Coffee, Black.... actually.... Computer, that cup fits at least two standard sized cups of
coffee. Make it full and give four Units of Sugar with it. Thanks.

[9:15] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] You didn't hear about the engineering snafus on 220?

[9:15] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "We should be ariving in fourty five minutes Ma'am, holding a steady speed at Warp eight"

[9:15] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "The ones on the Pilgrim?"

[9:16] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he scratched his head, listening in quietly*

[9:16] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Lovely. Tegan, Baker, let me know if the situation with the signal changes"

[9:16] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Yes ma'am.

[9:16] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Wasn't just them from what I heard.

[9:16] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --is busy analysing the signal.-- "yes, ma'am."

[9:17] [DOIC5] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The computer complies and produces his coffee.*

[9:17] [DOIC4] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The computer complies and produces his coffee.*

[9:17] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "so far no change ma'am."

[9:17] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: Oh, that. I heard it was sabotage.

[9:17] [DOIC6] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *In the very cramped barracks, the Deltas are shooting the shit, talking about their brief
leave on the Citadel.*

[9:17] [DOIC4] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Great...at least some things are working now. *He takes his cup and makes his way for
Sickbay*

[9:18] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Not something you see every dayt.

[9:18] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Yeah... not fun, from what I heard."

[9:19] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Yikes.. *he faced his console again*

[9:19] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Alert me once we are fifteen minutes out"

[9:19] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *Enters Sickbay and eyes that Person in the grey uniform for a longer moment, with a raised
eyebrow* Hello. What kind of Emergency can i help you with? Sunburn?

[9:20] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: Yet another reason I don't let anyone work on the Protector without direct observation.

[9:20] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Yes, Ma'am, will do"

[9:20] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Planning on catching a nap until then?"  *He smirked at Desiree teasingly.*

[9:20] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: *raises a eyebrow in return* "Excuse me?"

[9:21] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --Has a focused look on her face as she orks at her station.--

[9:21] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Oh if it only was so well. The ready room on the last ship I served on had a absolutely lovely bed I
saw"

[9:21] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Who... are ... you?

[9:21] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: *works

[9:21] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "That's a good policy... I am not sure I would even trust myself with it."

[9:21] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he turned around and eyed Bore awkwardly*

[9:21] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: "Is the medical uniform not a giveaway? Have you suffered a head injury recently?"

[9:22] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dalby] What?

[9:22] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Argentina's ready room had a little daybed tucked into a corner, I'm fairly sure that's where
the Captain was half the time he told us he didn't want to be disturbed..."  *He gave a small, wistful...

[9:22] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: smile.*

[9:22] [DOIC6] Mia@dardez1: -Mia scooches around people, trying not to knock into anyone in the cramped quarters as she flops in a
corner checking over the condition of the gear-

[9:22] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: No... but i have not seen you yet. So... i guess you are R'Kishrichs?

[9:22] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "The ship. I wouldn't even trust myself with it, without supervision."

[9:22] [DOIC6] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Chavez] Having fun yet, chief?

[9:23] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: *nods* "And you are?"

[9:23] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Yeah... that's accurate I guess..

[9:23] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "An XO readyroom with a bed, now that would be just lovely" *Smiles*

[9:23] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The nurses have stopped what they are doing and are looking on silently.*

[9:23] [DOIC6] Mia@dardez1: I was until I saw your ugly face, Chavez.

[9:23] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Kara shakes her head.* You are an engineer...

[9:23] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Sure we could get you a hammock set up in a closet somewhere on this little ship," *he
chuckled.*

[9:23] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *looks over at Bore for several seconds without comment*

[9:24] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] That sounds like a confidence problem, Ensign.

[9:24] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Doctor Sebastian Müller. I am...i was... the CMO of this vessel, till i had a longer
vacation. I was reassigned to this ... great spaceship. I am looking forward to do an exellent job, so i can get >

[9:24] [DOIC6] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Chavez] Don't lie...you know you like it.

[9:24] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "That we could! But if we consider how many steps it is for me to go to my quaters from here, I could
jsut have gone there" *Giggles*

[9:24] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Raises his shoulders towards Nalie, before he nods to Daniels.* "I've never denied
that... but I'm workng on it."

[9:25] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he ran a hand through his own hair as his eyes widened at Bore some again*

[9:25] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: < one day an assignment on one of the fleets cruisers.

[9:25] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Ow!"  *He yipped as he caught the tip of his finger in an emergency kit as he tried to
close it.*

[9:25] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Small ship, not far to get anywhere"

[9:25] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I think it's the principle of it.  The status symbol.  'Did you hear?  The XO gets her own
hammock closet, it's right next to her quarters but I'm so jealous.'"

[9:25] [DOIC6] Mia@dardez1: -She pokes the floor somewhat aimlessly- Have a good break on the citadel, Chavs?

[9:26] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -continues to methodiclly cycle through the ACCI Updates-

[9:26] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: "Well then pleasure to meet you. Not much going on right now so...." *shrugs* "Catch up on
reading or whatever. Inventory is current and the nurses are running routine diagnostics right now."

[9:26] [DOIC2] Nallie@Cuatela: *jumps at the sudden exclamation* Are you okay, Ensign?

[9:26] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "I suppose that would be the reason" *Smiles*

[9:27] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Oh Ricky not again dude! I keep telling you to watch out for your fingers.. *he walked over to assist
in closing the thing shut*

[9:27] [DOIC6] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Chavez] It was fun...anyone who serves on this class and doesn't take advantage of a holodeck
when they get the opportunity is a fool.

[9:27] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He nodded rapidly, holding on to his hand.*  "I'm okay!  It surprised me more than it
hurt!"  *he smiled at Damian as he came to assist him.*

[9:27] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *nods* Any Problems if i check their doings? In my experience, there is mostly someting
lacking. So a second look on what they do is not a wrong thing to do.

[9:28] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Never forget the power of image,"  *he chuckled as he went back to his notes.*

[9:28] [DOIC6] Mia@dardez1: Mhm

[9:29] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "The very lazy XO image? Hmm?"

[9:29] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: *shrugs* "Sure if you wish. I'd be careful about insulting their intelligence though we do have
to work as a team afterall."

[9:29] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "No, the XO who does her job so damn well she gets all the awesome perks."

[9:29] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Sure. A Team always needs a strong leadership. If you go easy on them, they will remind
that.

[9:29] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *Laughts* "Not me in other words, perhaps somethign to work towards"

[9:30] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore smiles at the two, almost proud to see Dame being a decent human being.* "It's
okay... in the academy, we had ones with heavier lids... one broke my finger once."

[9:30] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Always good to have a goal."

[9:30] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he properly showed him how to close a kit before putting it away* Ok then.. that one is good for now.

[9:30] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *raises a rather expression less eyebrow, but focuses on her job*

[9:31] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *remember*

[9:31] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Besides, I haven't seen you in real action yet.  You've still got the opportunity to impress
me, and the other new people."

[9:31] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -types out something-

[9:31] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: *nods and goes back to reading his padd*

[9:31] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Thanks, Dame."

[9:31] [DOIC6] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Chavez] What about you?

[9:31] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she leans toward V'Tira.-- "Hey V'Tira...have you met T'sahriv? She is Vulcan too."

[9:32] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *nods also, before he takes a sip from his extra large cup and walks around checking the
bunks*

[9:32] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks a brow at Ezri- How can you be so sure?

[9:32] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: No problem dude! Just gotta be more careful. *he got up and walked back to his console*

[9:32] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --bops along to the cool music--

[9:32] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Yeah, don't become as accident prone as I am, it's not fun... most of the time."

[9:32] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] It is listed on her service record.

[9:32] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Ah do not have hopes up that I will impress you. I am curious to see how our new additions do perform
however"

[9:33] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *hears a beep from his console and walks towards it*

[9:33] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Marcus blinked as a file was sent over.*  "You must've been made an XO as a lieutenant as a
reason, ma'am."

[9:33] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He then played the clip.*

[9:33] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --there is a long awkward silence.-- "Well um...I don't know. "

[9:33] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy giggles.*

[9:33] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Yes, Officer shortage"

[9:33] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Marcus tilted his head to the side.*

[9:33] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dalby] You are too hard on yourself.

[9:33] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Yes Catherine because files are never misleding

[9:34] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Why would they do that?

[9:34] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he blinked and scratched the side of his head*

[9:34] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Marcus typed something.*

[9:34] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *raises an eyebrow.* Realy?...

[9:34] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *smiles lightly to herself and beeps the console next to her*

[9:34] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Is there a discussion on weather or not I am Vulcan going on, or am I missunderstanding something?"

[9:35] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Thanks, LT, it's nice to hear. As I said, I am working on my confidence issues, so I
hope I'll get over it sooner rather than later."

[9:35] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he gently palmed his face and sighed as the vulcan did her thing*

[9:35] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore just stared at something on his screen incredulously.*

[9:35] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Magreilr] Something wrong, doctor?

[9:35] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He looked at V'Tira oddly.*

[9:35] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *types something on his console, sending a message back*

[9:36] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks a brow at T

[9:36] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks a brow at T'sahriv= How can one truly be certain of any uncertinaity?

[9:36] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Nothing...

[9:36] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *returns to his previous work*

[9:36] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] V'Tira...this is our newest chief flight controller...T'sahriv.

[9:37] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He put the kits away in their slots before returning to a console near Damian.*

[9:38] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods to her- Peace and long life T'sahriv

[9:38] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Kara giggles.*

[9:38] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Nurse?! *He points on a specific point at the pillow of an empty bunk* Can you explain that?

[9:39] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "We meet at Starbase Two twenty before we headed out" *she smiles briefly be looking at V'tira* "Live
long and Prosper"

[9:40] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Indeed we did. it wast no an unpleasant encounter -quirks a brow at the smile and then turns back to her
console-

[9:40] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to T'shariv= Catherine likes to assume...a lot

[9:40] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Grace] Explain what?

[9:40] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Grace] Explain what?

[9:41] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Good job Ricky.. They all got everything in them.. right?

[9:41] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "A Very human quality, but to clear things up to avoid rumors, I am Half Vulcan, born and raised on
Earth"

[9:41] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --turns back to her console has screens with the signal on it, running filters and analyses.--

[9:41] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore rubs at his nose subconsciously, wincing the tiniest bit.*

[9:41] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Yup!  I followed the instructions!"

[9:41] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: You want to tell me, you can't see it? *he reaches forward and picks up a small, very small
blond hair*

[9:42] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -runns a series of checks over wht they have on this signal to run a comparision from any intelligence
files-

[9:42] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: *smirks some at the exchange*

[9:43] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: So there are rumors about you already?

[9:43] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: YOu tend to forget steps whenever you hum goofy goober you know.. *he sighed and nodded at the kits
again* Come on, we'll check them again.. together this time.

[9:43] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "I do not..."  *He protested.*

[9:44] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she turns to V'Tira-- "You don't actually believe in silly conpiracy theories like that do
you?"

[9:44] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Ezri= Why would you think such a thing?

[9:44] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "I do not know, but I rather they don't start"

[9:44] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Grace]...are you joking?

[9:45] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to T'sahriv= The Lizard people...or the rumors

[9:45] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: ?

[9:45] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she shrugs-- "you sent it to me...i was just asking?"

[9:45] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "You're on a starship, and a small one at that.  Rumours are gonna pop up whatever you do."

[9:45] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he nodded habitually at the protest before kneeling to recheck Ricky's checkup* Mhmm..

[9:45] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "The rumors"

[9:45] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Ezri-I thought you might find it amusing

[9:45] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tiberius strolls onto the bridge.*

[9:45] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods to Marcus' comment-

[9:45] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Lieutenant, ETA fifteen minutes"

[9:45] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Good morning everyone.

[9:46] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Captain on the bridge."  *He nodded to Tib.*

[9:46] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "oh. okay." --she laughs, there is a creepy quality to  her laugh--

[9:46] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Good engage c... Sir" *Gets up and looks at tibs* "Fifteen minutes out from destination, nothing new
to report, sir"

[9:46] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: I can't believe you are asking this question. Allright... If you are injured, where do you
hope to go?... *He wouldnt leave her the time to answer* Right, you want to go to the best Sickbay availabe.>

[9:47] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Very good.

[9:47] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tiberius takes a seat.*

[9:47] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: < And yes, you are also right, that a dirty bunk is not part of that place. If someone comes
here with a head injury, you do not want them to lay down on the hair of another person, that was here >

[9:47] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *takes her standing spot and finds comforteble pose to stand at*

[9:47] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: < before him.

[9:48] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He sighed and went to recheck the kits with Damian.*

[9:48] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tiberius shifts around in his chair and leans back* Ahh, yes. LMC-2000.

[9:48] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: You can guess what that means?

[9:48] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "...We're already on 2000?"

[9:48] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: More than that, in fact.

[9:49] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Prepare to engage phase cloak when we enter the system.

[9:49] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Woah."

[9:49] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --uses the internal sensors to check on snowball.--

[9:49] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *Browses her PADD and smiles slightly*

[9:49] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Sir, As we are not fully aware of what is where we arive, and with the recent events, I was goign to
bring us in under cloak"

[9:50] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He blinked at Desiree with that.*

[9:50] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Grace] It is literally one little strand of hair.

[9:50] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Good thinking, Lieutenant.

[9:51] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We're going to do this sneaky-beaky like.

[9:51] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Yes. You are right. And this means, you clean the bunk again. Not only this one... all of
them. I will be on the bridge for a moment. I will check the bunks again, when i am back. I hope this place >

[9:51] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: < is clean then.

[9:51] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Is that the official name of that tactic, Captain?"

[9:51] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Yes.

[9:51] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Hunkler, please activate the cloak"

[9:51] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Sir, I will give ETA of five and one minute, as we get closer"

[9:51] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Helm, rig for silent running"

[9:51] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "...You mean six?"

[9:52] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Switching to passive sensors only."

[9:53] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Good job buddy, you did it right this time. *he grinned at the other ensign before putting everything
away nicely and heading back toward his usual console*

[9:53] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Hunkler] Yeah.

[9:53] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *would then move out of sickbay, taking the turbolift to the bridge*

[9:53] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "See?  I got them all pack--- oh, it looks like my combadge fell into this one..."

[9:53] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Yes sir

[9:53] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Going dark on all ACCI feeds

[9:53] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -sets all feeds to passive and stands them down-

[9:53] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *he hastily picked it up and reaffixed it to his jacket, closing the kit up and
hurrying after Damian.*

[9:53] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he stared at Ricky*

[9:53] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Rigging for silent running" *looks briefly up at the view screen before she rigs the ship for silent
running*

[9:53] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Good thing you told me to recheck them!"

[9:54] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *All of the nurses look at each other, then to R'Kisrix.*

[9:54] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Double and triple checking our work works wonders huh?

[9:54] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Mhm!"

[9:54] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Daniels] Phase cloak is online.

[9:55] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: *he looks at them shrugs* "Just make sure you activate a sterilization field before you put
anyone on a bed. And thank you for working as hard as you do."

[9:55] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "How exciting!"

[9:55] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore chuckles at Ricky.* "Wait till you have to put out your first fire."

[9:55] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Hunkler] The cloak is online.

[9:56] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: *chuckles some at how tightly wound his co-worker is as he continues to read the latest journal
from starfleet medical*

[9:56] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Eta five minutes"

[9:56] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: He'll be fine.. *he glanced at Bore*

[9:56] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *enters the bridge with his brand new extra large cup full of coffee*

[9:56] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "I don't think that would be very exciting."

[9:56] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Excellent. Once we're there, I want a tactical assessment, Number One.

[9:57] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tib turns to look at the new arrival to the bridge, but his eyes instantly fixate on
Mueller's new mug.*

[9:57] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Ahh. Doctor.

[9:57] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Gives an adrenaline rush, keeping the ship on her feet."

[9:57] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Captain.

[9:57] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Yeah, but wouldn't that freak you out?  Something's on fire and you're stuck with it
in this little confined space?"

[9:57] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I'm glad you're here. Depending on the situation on LMC-2000, we might need a medical
response.

[9:58] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Whats the Situation?

[9:58] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Unknown. But we will find out shortly.

[9:58] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: No, just gives you more of a reason to put it out.. duh.. *he looked at Ricky*

[9:58] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I'll have security and the Deltas on their toes, just in case we need them."

[9:59] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *nods and tabs his combadge* =^= CM...Doctor Müller to Sickbay.

[9:59] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Hmm, I guess it would, yeah."

[9:59] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Hunkler, be ready with tactical passives"

[9:59] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "One minute until Arival"

[10:00] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: =^= Sickbay here.

[10:01] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "We are ariving, going to impulse"

[10:01] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Also Captain... there is an issue i want to report...one moment. =^= Make ready a Medical
Response team. We are probably needed. Tell thoose Nurses, they should make ready my bag. I will go with ...>

[10:02] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: < I mean, i would go with them, if thats fine with you, R'Kishrichs.

[10:02] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Ah, your issue may have to wait, Doctor. We are soon approaching the system.

[10:02] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The Protector drops out of warp into the LMC-2000 system. There is one planet orbiting a gas
giant.*

[10:03] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Looks pretty lonely out here."

[10:03] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Anything on passive sensors?

[10:03] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: =^= Thats fine. Don't you have a field bag pre packed?

[10:03] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "yes captain one gas giant world with a moon orbiting it."

[10:03] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *telepathically listens at the vastness of space*

[10:03] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: =^= Yeah, they should give it to the team, so i can meet them at the Transporter Room.

[10:04] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: What a curious star system

[10:04] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "The signal could have been a  naturally occuring phenomenon."

[10:04] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: =^= Sure will do.

[10:04] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Take us in to orbit of the gas giant. I'd like to do a fly-by of that moon.

[10:05] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: =^= Thank you, R'Kischrischs.

[10:05] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: *looks at the nurses playing a silent game of enie meanie miny moe or the reman equivalent to
see who will be stuck with the tightly wound doctor*

[10:06] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "hey maybe there is an old derilict ship crashed on it that is full of xenomorph eggs!"

[10:06] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Could be radio waves bouncing off the gas giant. It's been known to happen.

[10:06] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Aye, captain, taking us into orbit of the gas giant" *does as she said and takes the ship into the
orbit around the giant, plotting the orbit for a fly by of the planet*

[10:06] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Uh... is that what your scans are picking up?"  *He looked at Tegan.*

[10:06] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: That's certainly... interesting speculation, Ensign.

[10:06] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "There are sentine life on the planet"

[10:06] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "yes sir, gas giants are known for thier radio emmissions."

[10:07] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *Takes a long sip from his cup, holding the FC Bayern Logo right into this episodes camera,
like it was for a hidden add*

[10:07] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Though to a lesser degree derlict space ship ful of eggs

[10:07] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Sentient life, eh? Can you determine the tech level?

[10:07] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I mean the eggs thing..."  *He looked at Desiree then.*

[10:07] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: "You grab a emergency med kit and Doctor Muller's personal med kit and standby in the
transporter room.

[10:07] [DOIC3] R'Kisrix@Pax_Parabellum: *points at one of the nurses*

[10:07] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Tegan, is this a known setteled system?"

[10:07] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "My scans are not picking up any xenomorph eggs unfortunately."

[10:08] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He rubbed the back of his neck.*  "Unfortunately..?"  *he repeated in an incredulous murmur.*

[10:08] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Magreilr] Yes doctor.

[10:08] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Yes..it ws improbabl

[10:08] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Yes..it ws improbable

[10:08] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at Desiree--"Not according to any records Starfleet has ma'am."

[10:09] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Ms. Tegan, whare you picking up with regards to life on the surface of that moon?

[10:10] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: * what are you

[10:10] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Do we have a clear reading of where the signal comes from?"

[10:10] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The Protector enters in orbit around the gas giant, just behind the moon also in orbit.*

[10:10] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "To scan for life using passive sensors we would need to get closer."

[10:10] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Eggs? Should i bring a pan with the away team?

[10:11] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Take us in to passive scanning range, Helm.

[10:11] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "We are reciveign the signal still tho, we can probably use that to gai na good starting point"

[10:11] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Let's not get ahead of ourselves, we don't even know if anyone down there needs medical
assistance."

[10:11] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "But, I am picking up signs that indicate life on the surface."

[10:12] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Captain we do have rrecords from atleast one long range deep space scan of this system on the databe from
our allies here in the Large Magellanic Cloud

[10:12] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Well, what kind of life?  Are we talking fungus and tadpoles or a civilisation?"

[10:13] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: What do those records reveal, Lieutenant?

[10:13] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: excuse me...the USS Daystrom...they found no trce or any indiction of life

[10:13] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Well I am detecting at least 19 percent oxygen so there must be plant life at least."

[10:14] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Well maybe they were mistaken," *He looked at V'Tira.*

[10:14] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: So according to the records, it's a rock. No indigenous life.

[10:14] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: ...yes

[10:14] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Very interesting.

[10:14] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Hunkler, Are there any threats we can detect?"

[10:14] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I need a full workup on what we're dealing with down there.

[10:14] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Hunkler] No ma'am.

[10:14] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Marcus= Or the life has only recently 'arrived'...or the sensors were merely too far away

[10:15] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *continues to telepathically search the dark space around them*

[10:15] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "maybe somone tested a genesis device here?"

[10:15] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Guess we'll find out soon enough, huh?  Depending on how developed the life is, anyway.  That
data can't be more than a few months old."

[10:15] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Or a wizard did it -dryly-

[10:16] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "From what I've heard, there's plenty of wizardry here in the LMC..."  *He smirked.*

[10:16] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "i don't think wizards are real."

[10:16] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *sips his cup, while eyeing V'Tira from his place. He shakes his head*

[10:16] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I am sure that they say the same of you Ezri

[10:16] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "that is a good point."

[10:16] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Are there any buildings on the surface?

[10:17] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

[10:18] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Sir, was wrong, the life I am sensing if rom the moon, Directions in space and telepathy do not mix
well"

[10:18] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *Maintain the orbit, while she monitering her console, engines and so on*

[10:18] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Maybe there is any indication of a power source. Any kind of Civilisation will need that,
especially if they live on a rock.

[10:19] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "If we get closer to the moon, I can get a proper look at the surface."

[10:19] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: We will need to go to active sensors if we are to learn more

[10:19] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "like in orbit. But, yeah activ sensors would speed up the process."

[10:19] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Switch to active scanners but maintain the cloak.

[10:20] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she hsrugs-- "aye sir, switching to active sensors."

[10:20] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --actively scans the hell out of that world.--

[10:20] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "yup there is defineitly life on that thar moon."

[10:21] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --scans for details and signs of civilization--

[10:23] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -tries to detect any signs of communications on the surface, orbit and leaving or entering the system-

[10:23] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "There is some sort of civilization. From thier technology level I would guess they are capable
of space travel, possibly even warp space flight."

[10:24] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Gonna need more of a 'possibly' if we wanna give them a ring, though."

[10:24] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *more than ))

[10:24] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Any indication of matter-antimatter reactors on the surface?

[10:24] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Well to be sure we would need to actually see a warp ship of some sort."

[10:25] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *steps toward the console on the wall, typing something into it*

[10:25] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "There any warp signatures in the area besides ours?"

[10:25] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --scanning for warp signatures and traces of matter/anti-matter reactions."

[10:25] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I am detecting numerous communications sugnlsbeing broadcast across the surfce...the univerisl translator
is having the same difficulty with these as it did the initial signal we received

[10:26] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --scans her heart out--

[10:26] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Must be some type of SETI-style project.

[10:27] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks a brow as she studieds a file and types something-

[10:27] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "They definetly have anti-matter power capability on the surface. But, I am not reading any
warp signatures."

[10:28] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We'll need to decode the meaning of that transmission.

[10:28] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *raises an eyebrow as she follows the talk on the bridge*

[10:28] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Nor have i detected any signals beyond the surface of the world

[10:29] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "there is something wierd about the physical scaling of thier civilization."

[10:29] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I am still running the translation sir...the translator is...being difficult

[10:29] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Take all the time you need. We need to discern the nature of the transmission.

[10:29] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "What do you mean?  Are they microscopic or something?"

[10:29] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Physical scaling?

[10:30] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Well sir, the size of everything seems way too small."

[10:30] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *shakes his head and types an answer*

[10:30] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "unless they are doll people!"

[10:30] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Or puppet people

[10:31] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at V'Tira-- "that would be awesome. or muppets!"

[10:31] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Just a very tiny species it seems.

[10:31] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Muppets would indee be perferable

[10:31] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: they are indeed a more inclusive society

[10:31] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "can we go down and look?"

[10:32] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Perhaps Beaker sent the signal...his filmed lines ahve never beenfully translated -dryly-

[10:32] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -continues to run her translation programs-

[10:34] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks a brow at a secondary monitor-

[10:34] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --has an idea-- "If they are much smaller than us that might explain the strange distortions.
As people that size would hear at shorter wavelengths."

[10:34] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "If they're that small, maybe the translator's having problems with their squeaky voices..."

[10:34] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: We have one word ranslated of the initial ransmission to the citadel..it translates as 'welcome'

[10:34] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He blinked at Tegan.*  "Huh, I was just making a joke..."

[10:35] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at Marcus-- "exactly."

[10:35] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: it seems to be being used repeatily in the signals on the surface

[10:35] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she starts to compensate for thier squeaky voices."

[10:35] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Ah yes. It must be their attempt to reach out to alien life.

[10:36] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Let us hope then..that it is not the old men in the balcony that are the ones who sent the signal

[10:36] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "That would be the logical conclution"

[10:36] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *continues listening trough telepathy*

[10:36] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Maybe we should bring them here. If they are this small, this ship will probably be like a
palace for them.

[10:36] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Old men on the balcony?"

[10:37] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I would like to point out..the words 'not' could be a part of the untranslated part of the message...as
in 'not welcome'

[10:37] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --remoduates the signal to longer wavelengths and runs the translation again.--

[10:37] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We will need a full translation of the message and an assessment as to their warp capability.
Then we will contact Starfleet with our report and await further orders.

[10:37] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Who sends out a 'Not Welcome' message that reaches that far into space except a civilisation
of broody teenagers?"

[10:37] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "We have been detected, Sir"

[10:38] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to MArcus- Statler and Waldorf

[10:38] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: They've taken notice of our scans?

[10:38] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I bet they are either really cute to listen to or really annoying...or maybe both."

[10:38] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Who?"

[10:38] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Yes what is th epoint of  'dont not disturb ' sign either -to Marcus-

[10:38] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Yes, they are very excited"

[10:38] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: They must have a fairly high level of technological development for them to have determined
this in such a short time.

[10:39] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Ezri- or fer Gargamel

[10:39] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I said one that reaches that far into space.  They picked it up on the Citadel after all.
You'd think a 'do not disturb' would be more localised."

[10:39] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: fear*

[10:39] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: You assume much

[10:39] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Baker, transmit what we know to Starfleet and request further orders.

[10:39] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "You're assuming about my assumptions."

[10:39] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: They might want to send one of their greasy, goateed diplomats down here to make first
contact.

[10:40] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: An assumption

[10:40] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "I can communicate with them, sir"

[10:40] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --scans for the aliens scans--

[10:40] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Not yet, Lieutenant.

[10:40] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I don't want to make contact with them until we have orders to do so. Our standing orders are
to investigate the signal, which we have done.

[10:40] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "And another assumption about my assumption.  And you know what they say about assumptions,
Lieutenant."

[10:40] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He chuckled.*

[10:40] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "I have not done so. Just letting you know they are compateble and receptible, sir"

[10:41] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Are they naturally telepathic?

[10:41] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: That assumptions are the termites of realationsips?

[10:41] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "No sir, Nither do they seem to hold resistances against telepathic connections"

[10:42] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "That when you assume, it makes an--- actually, I'll tell you when we're off-duty."

[10:42] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Gosh, that would freak them out if aliens started talking to them in their heads.

[10:42] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: or perhaps it was You must stick to your conviction, but be ready to abandon your assumptions?

[10:43] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Sir, with all due respect, I do not belive such is a lot more frightening then knowing for sure that
we are here, but we keep ourself mysteriously hidden, not trying to talk with them, sir"

[10:43] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Sky rockets in flight... afternoon delight..."  *He murmured under his breath.*

[10:43] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We will talk with them if Starfleet permits.

[10:43] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: or perhaps Differences challenge assumptions.

[10:44] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Dalby] What?

[10:44] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Well they seem to have pretty sophisticated technology. But, they don't seem to apply it to
space travel."

[10:44] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Er, not exactly, but don't mind me."

[10:44] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -as she works on the translation programs-

[10:44] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: If someone would hide behind a bush at my home, watching me and i knew it... i would first
ask what they want... if they dont answer...there might be problems.

[10:44] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Huh?"

[10:44] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: He does it alot.. just get used to it. *he shrugged*

[10:45] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Most logical, doctor."

[10:45] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Baker, any updates?

[10:45] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: I believe it was WIlly Wonka that said..'The tension is incredible..I hope that it lasts'

[10:45] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "It's a song, why are you saying it like it's a bad thing?"

[10:45] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Who?"

[10:45] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Willy Wonka

[10:45] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Was he some kind of historical figure?"

[10:46] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Why are you taking it like it's a bad thing?

[10:46] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: He was the owner of the WIlly Wonka Chocolate Factory on Earth in the mid to late 20th century

[10:46] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Updates?

[10:46] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Some fictional human. in the story he made candy and killed children."

[10:46] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Woah.  Neat."

[10:46] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Shrugs.* "Saying "Get used to it" usually indicates some level of disapproval."

[10:47] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "..Wait, he was fictional?  And a child killer?"

[10:47] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: (( I asked Baker to report to Starfleet what we know, and get further orders

[10:47] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "something like that anyway."

[10:47] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: It depends on the source of the fiction...there was little proof he himself was responsible for any
child's death

[10:47] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Then who actually owned the Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory?"

[10:48] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Most likely it was the umpa loompa

[10:48] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he scratched his head* Uh. no? Just means don't really mind it much, it's no big deal.

[10:48] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "The what?"

[10:48] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Oomp Loompa Umpity Day,..."

[10:48] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: The Ump Loompa...from Loompa Land

[10:48] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I never heard of Loompa Land, where is it?"

[10:49] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "If you say so."

[10:49] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Right next to La La Land.

[10:49] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: I did say so.. *he shrugged*

[10:49] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I was never that great at Earth geography."

[10:49] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: a land of thick jungles, desolate wastes and the most horrid beasts in the world; Hornsnozzlers,
Snozzwangers, Vermicious Knids and Whangdoodles

[10:49] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -say drly as she works in her translations-

[10:50] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Whangdoodles?"

[10:50] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *Giggles* "Daww"

[10:50] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods-

[10:50] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --Ezri shudders at the mention of the horrid beasts.--

[10:50] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I think I once saw a bar in San Francisco named that..."

[10:51] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Indee..named after the creature

[10:51] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tib waits for Baker.*

[10:51] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Guess that explains why everyone going in looked so fierce."

[10:51] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "We have similar beasts on Trill."

[10:51] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods to Ezri's comment-

[10:52] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "So did everyone have fun at the starbase?"

[10:53] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "This does not seem to be a GO1 issue from our side, sir."

[10:53] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I agree.

[10:53] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Indeed not if they called to us and detected us through our phase cloak

[10:53] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "They seem to be a very frienly bunch, I am just listening, but they seem... kind"

[10:54] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Nevertheless, we have accomplished our orders as issued and need to wait for new orders.

[10:54] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he glanced at Bore* Yeah dude, you alright? Heard you visited sickbay over some gnarly incident?

[10:54] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He looked worriedly at Bore with that.*

[10:55] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Erzi- A muppet world...would be,,,fascinating

[10:55] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "V'Tira, Baker, either of you. get the sitrep to the sitadel and ask abotu what we shall do"

[10:55] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "They look like cute slugs, with very beautiful shirts"

[10:55] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Just because someone seams kind on first sight, it does not mean he stays that way. If they
send a "Not welcome" Message everywhere, it has a meaning. Maybe its a warning, not from them, but someone>

[10:55] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] We would have to resume ACCI.

[10:55] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: <who knows them.

[10:55] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "How did you... that was all the way back on 220... but yeah, I did."

[10:56] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -sends off a full update andbridge logs to the Citadel through the ACCI and informs them we are standing
by for further orders-

[10:56] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -nods to Sepp- indeed...it might be similar to ur Code-710

[10:56] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "What happened?"

[10:56] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Do not approach for any reason

[10:56] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: What happened exactly? I heard various stories, you broke your legs.. snapped your funny bone..

[10:57] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *nods* Exactly.

[10:57] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Well we sorta crossed that line about an hour ago

[10:57] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "...What? No, my nose was just broken."

[10:57] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Well we are not there yet. However, if their sice is an issue...

[10:57] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -quirks her brow as she reads their new orders-

[10:57] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: How'd that happen? Slipped from a barstool and bam?

[10:57] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Their intentions seem friendly enough.

[10:58] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Did you not look where you were going and walk into a wall?  One of my brothers did
that once."

[10:58] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: You sprinted into a door huh?.. *he smirked*

[10:58] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: glass door*

[10:58] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Um... I... fell down some stairs."

[10:58] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *steps to the console and checks the size of the bridge crew members with the internal
sensors and lays the data over the old files before they entered the system*

[10:59] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: We are about to..Captain new orders. We are to determine diplomatic intentions...-shkes her head- we are
to initiate first contact if deemed to be friendly or receptive to it

[10:59] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "There's stairs on the stabase?"

[10:59] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Um... on the holodeck."

[10:59] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he nudged Ricky, grinning* Uh oh..

[10:59] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Ah very good. I think that we have determined that they are receptive to it.

[10:59] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Shall I confirm these orders again sir? -said in mild disbelief-

[10:59] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: What's the status of our Universal Translator algorithm?

[10:59] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "What?"  *He looked at Dame.*

[10:59] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: You seem surprised by these orders, Lieutenant.

[10:59] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *briefly smiles and quitely mouthes* "First Contact"

[10:59] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Why didn't you roll onto your back then?

[10:59] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -to Tibs- I am sir

[11:00] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: they are not logical

[11:00] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: You know.. cover your face, tuck arms in..

[11:00] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Why's that?

[11:00] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Isn't seeking out new life and new civilisations sort of our thing?"

[11:00] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Sir, of those that are aware of our presence, there seem to be two views on the situation. some are
truly excited, but a little worried, others are whiel excited, very worried, convinced this is a >

[11:00] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Given the nature of our vessel and service history, we are not the optimal choice for a first contsct
mission

[11:00] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: > test of sort by someone or something"

[11:00] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Nah I've got this.

[11:01] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Marcus blinked.*

[11:01] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: ...yes

[11:01] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Can we communicate with them accurately using the UT?

[11:01] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Because I was... uh.. trapped."

[11:01] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Well... that's great to hear on my first mission with all of you."

[11:01] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Trapped? My dude, you're not making sense here.

[11:01] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: There are been no progress yet with the Universal Translator sir

[11:01] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "You were trapped and falling down the stairs?"

[11:01] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: That will be our top priority.

[11:01] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --checks the progress of the translation algorith,--

[11:01] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: ...yes

[11:02] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We can't initiate first contact until we have the translator algorithm locked down.

[11:02] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Actually it is perfectly logical that we initiate first contact, since we have already been
discovered seemingly, leaving and sending a different ship could spark distrust"

[11:02] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -says nothing to that-

[11:02] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Maybe we could send them a present?

[11:02] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Uh... crap. I meant tripped, yeah."

[11:02] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "we could just go down ther and wing it."

[11:02] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Tripped or trapped? *he eyed him again* I feel like you're holding something back..

[11:02] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: -lowers her head a moment-

[11:03] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Tripped, tripped, yeah."

[11:03] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Trying to get in your Vulcan 'saying the word logical' quota?"  *He asked T'sahriv amusedly
before looking back at Ezri.*  "I don't know how much we could do if we're way bigger than them..."

[11:03] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: We half only half of the message translated

[11:03] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I am sure with enough language samples the UT would pick it up quickly."

[11:03] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Do they have any type of signal network? Like a holonet, or internet, or radio network? We
might be able to get samples from there.

[11:04] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he glanced him over* Since when do lower twenty year olds trip down a flight of stairs?

[11:04] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "that is a good idea sir."

[11:04] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "It's weird you only hurt your nose falling down a flight of stairs, though."

[11:04] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: Yes sir as I indiated earlier

[11:04] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Its a habbit"*she shrugged a bit as she briefly looked back at Blaine*

[11:04] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --tunes into alien tv.--

[11:04] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He chuckled at T'sahriv.*  "I'm just teasing you, you're fine."

[11:04] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Pull samples from that. Give the computer a little more to work with.

[11:05] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Captain, recommend we all try watching some alien broadcasts in case we can glean any insights
off of them?"  *He grinned.*

[11:05] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: We have been sir

[11:05] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "The other stuff was just bruises. Only thing that needed sickbay was the nose... and
I was tripped. It was an um... action thing. I was chasing criminals down a flight of stairs, and one had hidden >

[11:05] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Behind the doorway and tripped me... yeah."

[11:05] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: we have both run the samples and the intial mission sine we arrived in system

[11:05] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Excellent. Keep up the hard work.

[11:05] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *his brow rose* Hmm.. right.. an action thing..

[11:06] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "You have to be careful of doors right next to stairwells!"  *He nodded sagely.*

[11:06] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --puts up an alien TV program up on a smaller windowed area on the main viewer.-- "I think that
might be what they look like."

[11:06] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Can you identify a "command center" or capital building?

[11:06] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Sir, It may be a sound idea here to ask for assistance by the Avynei"

[11:07] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Oh really?

[11:08] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I know, Ricky... learned my lesson." *He rubs at his nose.*

[11:08] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: And how would you do that?

[11:08] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "I belive that with this divide and uncertainty that is present, and this mention of this mysterious
figure who seem to might be religious, a species more adapt in it may be lovely, sir"

[11:08] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he narrowed his eyes* Maybe we should ask that ensign you've been hanging around with lately..

[11:08] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Oh, we can't risk that.

[11:08] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Oh?"

[11:08] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "If we just call the Avynei in any time it might be mildly convenient, we're never going to be
taken seriously here in the galaxy."  *He shrugged.*

[11:09] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: I dunno.. I just feel like we ain't getting the whole true story here.. You know what I'm saying? *he
leaned up against his console, facing bore*

[11:09] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: I mean like.. what kind of criminal on the run.. hides.. and trips the good guy?

[11:09] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Oh? And what would you assume the whole story is?" *He raises an eyebrow, looking at
Dame over his shoulder.*

[11:09] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Well... the kind that is unarmed?"

[11:10] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Usually they run and keep running until they're trapped in a alley or something..

[11:10] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --works dilegently at the translation task, correlating wierd aleind signals and feeding them
into the UT for analysis.--

[11:11] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I was playing on the hard difficulty."

[11:11] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "I may also be mistaking this, it is a lot of voices, and that we remain hidden even after they
noticed us has made them more worried, so it may be this is an issue of our own making. I fear I have >

[11:11] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: > no clear answers to that, just theories, sir"

[11:11] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Wouldn't.. that make them... armed?

[11:11] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky] *He tilted his blonde head slightly.*

[11:12] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I'm afraid they will have to wait. We absolutely cannot risk a miscommunication due to an
imperfect UT algorithm. The consequences of that are certainly more serious than the tension they experience >

[11:12] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: from having to wait.

[11:12] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: 'I managed to disarm him beforehand and he ran."

[11:12] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: You smelling the fish here too Ricky? *he glanced at Bore* Wouldn't he.. I dunno, have a certain set
of fighting skills to fight against you?

[11:13] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "the UT should have a passable translation matrix in ten minutes."

[11:13] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He sniffed the air.*  "No, it just smells like my shampoo."

[11:13] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Excellent.

[11:13] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Hopefully they can keep it together down there for ten more minutes. Ha ha.

[11:13] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Perhaps is getting to the time we should at least uncloak and show our selves?"

[11:13] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *nods and resumes passively listening*

[11:13] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Their hail is very important to us.  Maybe we should play them some music in the meantime."

[11:13] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I am sure they will be all right sir."

[11:14] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Decloaking without a corresponding message would only compound their anxiety.

[11:14] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Maybe we could send something like... Give us a moment?

[11:14] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: They do know we are hera

[11:14] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "People tend to fear the unknown more then what they know and can see"

[11:14] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "But I understand Captain"

[11:14] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he facepalmed* I wasn't.. being literal..

[11:15] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Well... me and Ezri... um. Ensign Tegan, have been training a bit. I'm not -that-
weak anymore... and he was trying to escape with stolen goods, so he probably thought it would be better to leg it."

[11:15] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Can you get an accurate translation of "Stand by for transmission" in their language?

[11:15] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Ohhhh."

[11:15] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she shrugs-- "Maybe."

[11:15] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "What's metaphorically fishy?"

[11:15] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: In that case, we will wait for the finalized algorithm.

[11:15] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: You're hair smells great.. his story Ricky.. his story..

[11:15] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I can try."

[11:15] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: There's no room for mistakes in first contact scenarios.

[11:16] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Thanks!  And what's so fishy about his story?"

[11:16] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "If we just decloak to show ourself, we stil lremain unknown, they jsut have more to speculate about"

[11:16] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "My story is okay." *He shrugs, agreeing with Ricky.*

[11:16] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: I dunno man.. just got this funny feeling coming off the back of my neck..

[11:16] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "We could send them a message in out language. That would keep them busy."

[11:17] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "You sure you ain't just a bit cold?"

[11:17] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Let's just focus on that algorithm.

[11:17] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I could always head out on the hull and do an interpretive dance for them 'til we get the UT
working."

[11:17] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Sounds like you were playing mall cop of easy difficulty..

[11:17] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "It'll at least confuse them for ten minutes."

[11:17] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: We do not know if the sound of one of our words would sound like an insult to them.

[11:17] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she nods toward Marcus-- "unless they are loing through a telescope they would be unlikely to
see  you."

[11:17] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "It was a... uh... random encounter, not part of the main story."

[11:18] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Someone probably is," *he shrugged.*

[11:18] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Cool.

[11:18] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "that is likely. What sort of dance were you thinking of?"

[11:18] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I was thinking I'd wing it."

[11:19] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she shrugs--

[11:19] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --then turns back to her console--

[11:19] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore blinks a bit, surprised Dame let go that easy.* "Huh. Cool."

[11:19] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Mhm...

[11:19] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Bad building design though!"

[11:19] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he eyed him suspiciously* ...Cool.

[11:20] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "...Cool."

[11:20] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Would've been awesome riding one of those segways though.. too bad yours must've.. not been there.

[11:20] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Why we don't try it like in the old days? Send them something mathematical. It would give
them something and they would be busy for a few moments.

[11:20] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *He shakes his head at Ricky.* "We weren't in a building, th.." *He shuts up.*

[11:21] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "We?  I thought you were doing the program by yourself?"

[11:21] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Or we could just wait three minutes.

[11:21] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Aha! *he pointed at him*

[11:21] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "sure I could send them a tonal pattern representing the first few primes."

[11:21] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: And drink coffee. Yes.

[11:21] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *Sips his cup*

[11:21] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: The universal translator is now functioning nd is ready

[11:21] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Fantastic!

[11:22] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Let's see if they've been cursing us out for the last hour or so."

[11:22] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Uh... me and... the hologram criminal?"

[11:22] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Disengage cloaking device. Prepare to broadcast a message on all frequencies.

[11:22] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Hunkler] Aye sir.

[11:22] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Well then where were you? You just said you weren't in a building..

[11:22] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The Protector phases back into space as it appears above the moon.*

[11:23] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] You are on, sir.

[11:23] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "It was... more... of a tourist spot? You know, one of those hills with small carved
down stairs."

[11:23] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *clears throat* This is Tiberius Asada, Captain of the Starship Protector and representative
of the United Federation of Planets. We have arrived in response to your signal. >

[11:23] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "There was a door on a hill?"

[11:23] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Right.. then how did the 'criminal' hide behind a door and trip you?

[11:23] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Hmmm? *he eyed him even more suspiciously*

[11:23] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We come in peace and in the spirit of friendship. Please acknowledge our transmission if you
have the means to do so.

[11:23] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He gasped then.*

[11:23] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Uh... we came out of the gift shop, which was right next to the stairs."

[11:24] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Bore, have you been making things up?"

[11:24] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: End transmission. Let's see how they respond.

[11:24] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he grinned at Ricky* Uh duh!

[11:24] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "So wait, he didn't fall down some stairs?"

[11:24] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Exactamundo buddy!

[11:25] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Um, maybe?"

[11:25] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "So how did he get his nose hurt?"

[11:25] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he looked at Bore*

[11:25] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Incoming transmission, captain.

[11:25] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Why do I get the feeling that I just taught my son how to fish for the first time?

[11:26] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "There's no water here."

[11:26] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Put it on.

[11:26] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *smiles with anticipation*

[11:26] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore chuckles a bit at Ricky.* "Well, I did get it hurt in a holodeck."

[11:26] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Ricky buddy.. we just caught him redhanded lying to us about his fake story.

[11:26] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Marcus looked at the viewscreen with interest.*

[11:27] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Ohhh, metaphorical fishing... I get it now!"

[11:27] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *looks front, cup in his right hand*

[11:27] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "So wait, were you playing a program you weren't supposed to or something?"

[11:27] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *looks up at the viewscreen*

[11:28] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "A program I'm not supposed to?" *He tilts his head.*

[11:28] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *On the viewscreen, a sluglike creature appears. By his facial expression, he appears very
pleased to see them.*

[11:28] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Why else would you lie to your friends?"  *He looked a little hurt.*

[11:28] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Because he knows how terrible of a person I am and how I won't ever let this go.

[11:29] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Greetings from the United Federation of Planets.

[11:29] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she looks at the screen in disgust-- "ew."

[11:29] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he looked at bore*

[11:29] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Awww." *Bore is so obviously guilt tripped by Ricky.* "But Damian is right."

[11:29] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "You're a nice guy, Dame, don't say that!"

[11:29] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *blinks*

[11:29] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He gave Ezri a pointed look.*

[11:29] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Nice, yes... a walking encyclopedia of my worst moments? Also yes."

[11:29] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *mutes their end for a moment* No comments from you, Ensign, or I'll drag you off the bridge.
*unmutes*

[11:30] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Slug] Greetings Federation...how may we help you?

[11:30] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --looks confused and puzzled has a 'what did i do' look--

[11:30] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We've detected your signal and wanted to make contact with your people.

[11:31] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he shrugged* I am what I am.

[11:31] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "So what really happened?"

[11:31] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Uh... it's not really... workspace conversation."

[11:31] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --shudders at the though of the little boogery slug aliens.--

[11:31] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Slug] Oh! We have attempted to make contact with the outside...you are the first success.

[11:31] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he glanced around* Oh come on, everyone else is basically nose deep into their consoles and stuffs..

[11:31] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "You can whisper it!"

[11:32] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Me and someone got a bit too... into one another, and she headbutted me, breaking my
nose."

[11:32] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he furrowed his brow* Oh please tell me it wasn't our old security chief.

[11:32] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *looks at ezri for a moment, then makes his way for the console*

[11:33] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We're pleased to be the first. The Federation is always interested in meeting new species and
engaging in cultural exchange.

[11:33] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Duuuude! Why!

[11:33] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Laughs, saying nothing for now.*

[11:33] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "She headbutted you??"

[11:33] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: [afk a sec]

[11:33] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "That she did."

[11:33] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "That's pretty mean..."

[11:34] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: But if they're hot, it doesn't count as mean..

[11:34] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: But the old chief wasn't really hot.. she was just plain grumpy.

[11:34] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, she's very mean... but I deserve it."

[11:34] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "...And the chief was very hot, thank you very much."

[11:34] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: You got weird tastes dude..

[11:35] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Slug] We welcome your Federation.

[11:35] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Shrug.* "Some people get with klingon chicks, so no accounting for taste."

[11:35] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Klingons can be very pretty."

[11:35] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Won't ever catch me with one of them.. Nope.. *he shook his head*

[11:35] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore shudders a bit at the thought of some klingon getting her hands on poor innocent
Ricky.*

[11:36] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Would you permit us the honor of meeting us in person on your planet?

[11:36] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Slug] Of course!

[11:36] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she swivels and looks at Tibs in horror.--

[11:36] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "To answer your question, it wasn't Vieya."

[11:37] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I'm very grateful. We will first need to conduct a variety of scans to determine that there
will be no risk of, say, unintentionally bringing any dangerous microbes to your planet.

[11:37] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Once we're convinced that it will be safe for your people, we can send down a small
delegation.

[11:37] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Who's Vieya?"

[11:37] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Oh... I feel loads better now.. *he let out a relieved sigh*

[11:37] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Slug] We will need a period of time to prepare our people for such an encounter.

[11:37] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Oh... it's more or less the same type of person as her, though."

[11:37] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Absolutely. Take as much time as you need.

[11:38] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she nods at that--

[11:39] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Duuude.. why you gotta lie to us though.. I thought we were tight..

[11:40] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Slug] Thank you...Tiberius.

[11:40] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Yeah... it's really bad to lie, especially to your friends."

[11:40] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: You're welcome. How should I refer to you, my friend?

[11:40] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Slug] Anirryn.

[11:41] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: It will be a pleasure to meet you face to face, Anirryn.

[11:41] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *He bows in front of Asada.*

[11:41] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Because it doesn't sound too good to be talking about stuff like that in the
workplace. I'd have told you directly, had you asked in mess hall or somewhere."

[11:41] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *curtseys to Anirryn*

[11:42] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *holds his cup up in a greeting manner*

[11:43] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *Tiberius returns the bow.* Let us know when you're ready. We'll be right here.

[11:43] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he shrugged* Not like we're hella busy.

[11:43] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *He nods and the transmission ends.*

[11:44] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I'll get a security complement ready for beamdown."

[11:44] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "It still sounds tasteless to talk of your girl breaking your nose while... you know."

[11:44] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Alright, Doctor. I need a full assessment on any medical concerns with entering their
biosphere.

[11:44] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she leans back in her chair, taking a deep breath.--

[11:44] [DOIC1] V'Tira@Isis.: [back]

[11:44] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "At least in the workspace."

[11:44] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Plus.. you're the one that kept leading us down a fake story..

[11:44] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Lieutenant Clerie, what's the mood down there?

[11:44] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *nods and gets to work on that console nearby*

[11:44] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "You coulda said you couldn't talk about it instead of making things up..."

[11:45] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: He's right you know.

[11:45] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Excited, but a little causios, sir"

[11:46] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Well at least they have good personalities."

[11:47] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Well, that's fine.

[11:47] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "True, guess that's my bad... I just know that this will be a constant new point of
your alredy big book of things to give me crap about." *Chuckles at Dame.*

[11:47] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We'll bring myself, Lt. Clerie, Lt. Blaine, and Lt. V'Tira as the delegation to the planet.

[11:48] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Marcus nodded.*  "Very well, Captain."

[11:48] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Sir, Would it not be adviceble to leave the XO here if you are traveling down there, sir?"

[11:48] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "That is standard protocol, Captain."

[11:49] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: That point is duly noted, but I think the benefits of you attending the delegation outweigh
the disadvantages.

[11:50] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "As you command, Sir"

[11:50] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Right..

[11:50] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *sighs* Sir, i would recommend protective gear. There is a minimum amount of oxygen in the
air, but our lungs have to compensate, so no long runs down there without oxigen generation to go. Also i do>

[11:51] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: < not have any readings if the air is toxic for us. So there would be a ground scan needed
to determine that.

[11:51] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "What about the size difference?  They're not the size of garden slugs, are they?"

[11:51] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Very good observation, Doctor. We will beam down in protective suits with the exterior
santitzed by the transporter filters.

[11:52] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Should i come with you, or not?

[11:52] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Yes, I'll want you on the team.

[11:53] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: But don't get mouthy with the aliens.

[11:54] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *smiles as she moniters that they keep maintaining orbit, feeling quite happy being a part of this
mission*

[11:54] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *sights* Fine... i go grab my suit. I will be quiet. Also i would want to scan them and get
a sample of their "bodyfluid"

[11:54] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Uh, let's save that for the proper time and place.

[11:54] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: This is a very delicate situation.

[11:55] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Usually you gotta buy them dinner first before you can get a sample of their bodily fluids,
Doc."

[11:55] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *looks over her shoulder at the Doctor, before looking back to her console*

[11:55] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Slug slime can help with the repair of internal wounds.

[11:56] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Alright, we got an estimation of how long it'll be before we can beam down?"

[11:57] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] It will likely be some time.

[11:57] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Right.

[11:57] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Sir. Maybe that gives time for that issue i had to report?

[11:57] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Go ahead Doctor.

[11:57] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --looks a bit green and makes a retching sound at the mention of slug body fluids.--

[11:58] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: I have got the information, you have something that belongs to me.

[11:58] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "You sick, Ensign?"  *He looked at Ezri.*

[11:58] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: I think this will need to go through the XO.

[11:58] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Since it does sound like a personnel issue.

[11:58] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she shakes her head-- "i'm fine."

[11:58] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Well...you have my cup and i want it back.

[11:58] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Sure?  You look greener than a blushing Romulan."

[11:59] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: If I have your cup, Doctor, it must surely be accidental.

[11:59] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she places a hand over her mouth.-- "I'll be okay."

[11:59] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *takes out a tricorder and begins to scan Ezri*

[11:59] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He gave her a concerned frown.*

[11:59] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Ah, yes. Doctor, you should bring Ms. Tegan to sickay.

[12:00] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: * sickbay.

[12:00] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: We can't have sick officers on the bridge.

[12:00] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "No really...I'm fine."

[12:00] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: mhm

[12:00] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: No need to be a hero, Ms. Tegan. Off to sickbay with you.

[12:00] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: You brought that tribble to me last time, right?

[12:01] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "yes. snawball."

[12:01] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Sir?

[12:01] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Baker.

[12:01] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Also you heard the captain. Follow me, please.

[12:01] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] They would like for us to hold off...until the one you spoke with can address the
people and answer questions.

[12:02] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: Let them know we understand.

[12:02] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Captain. I am taking the Officer with me. Also... on the topic of that cup. Your bridge
crew told me you have it. So...its your turn.

[12:02] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --follows the doctor.--

[12:02] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: *watches Mueller leave the bridge* Okay, which one of you told him about the mug?

[12:02] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *leaves the bridge and heads for sickbay*

[12:02] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Yes sir.

[12:02] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Do we stay or head back and come back later?"

[12:03] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Mug?"

[12:03] [DOIC1] Tiberius Asada@atemporal: It's up to them. Baker, let them know that we can leave and come back if they would prefer.

[12:03] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Yes sir.

[12:03] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I'm guessing we should stay in orbit, no use going all the way back to the Citadel if we're
just going to return."

[12:04] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *points at the bunk in front of him* Please lay down on your back.

[12:05] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Alright, i guess you do not want to go down there. If you want i put you off duty for a few
days.

[12:05] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she climbs up on the bed.-- "this is really unnecessary. I just get sick when i think about
gross stuff too much."

[12:06] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I am sure they are wonderfull slug people."

[12:06] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "And, I am really curious to see if they have tenticles."

[12:06] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Starfleet cannot use officer on duty, that are not able to adjust to a situation. So if you
are not sure you can handle the mission, i put you out.

[12:07] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Yes sir.

[12:07] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: (mt)

[12:07] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I just worry that one of them may try to hug me."

[12:07] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: It is a possibility. Thats what thoose protective suits are for.

[12:07] [DOIC1] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: mt

[12:07] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: It is a possibility. Thats what thoose protective suits are for.

[12:08] [DOIC1] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "good thinking on that one doctor."

[12:08] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Lieutenant Clerie? Ma'am?

[12:08] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "good thinking on that one doctor."

[12:08] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *His tummy rumbled loudly.*

[12:09] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Yes, Baker?"

[12:09] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: I think we should get that holodeck up and running. *he glanced at Ricky and hsi roaring lion of a
stomach*

[12:09] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "We have a holodeck?"

[12:09] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Shall I call up our relief?

[12:09] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Alright. After my scans you are fine. However i wanted to talk to you in private about how
you feel about that mission. If you feel not ready, thats not a big problem. It just should not happen to >

[12:09] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I was really hoping they would be all cute and cuddly. I will get used to the reality of it
soon enough."

[12:09] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: < often.

[12:09] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: "Please do"

[12:09] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: In the process.. not quite finished.

[12:10] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Well maybe they are some kind of butterflys that transform with age...how is that?

[12:10] [DOIC] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] =^= Beta watch...please report to your stations.

[12:10] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Wow, do we even have space for one here?"

[12:10] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Oh, we're off-duty!"

[12:10] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he shook his head* It's gonna be a tiny one.. chief had it set up in one of the cargo bays.

[12:10] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "that would be great, but I doubt it."

[12:10] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: It's really tiny, barely fit two people actually.

[12:10] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *slowly gets out of seat and stretches a bit waiting for her relief*

[12:11] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "There's gonna be a long list for it when it's finished then."

[12:11] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I just have to get used to the reality...you know for science."

[12:11] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Whew... glad we get a break before we beam down, I could go for some tacos."

[12:11] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Yeah... sadly."

[12:11] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: THat's what I said also when we first started such a thing..

[12:12] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "But it'll be cool to have one."

[12:12] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Okay. Well then, as you seam fit and this is cleared, you are free to go to your station or
your quarters. *he nods* Yes. I understand that. Thats why i want to milk their fluid. On Earth some slugs >

[12:12] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Security and helm relief filter onto the bridge.*

[12:12] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "yeah i better go check on snowball. I bet he is lonely."

[12:12] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: < have healing abilitys and flexible adhesive material inspired by the glue secreted by
slugs was used before in medicine.

[12:13] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He grinned at his relief.*  "Don't have too much fun."

[12:13] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Kara.. Ervie.. Even Daniels pitched in on the work.. Then we had other work to do, guess it got put
on the backburner.

[12:13] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she shudder at the mention of milking thier fluids.--

[12:13] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "ew."

[12:13] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: You wont say that, when it saves your life one day.

[12:14] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "yes i will. I will say thanks you. but, I also will say ew."

[12:14] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *takes a moment to fill Ensign Wiebe in on what has been going on during the shift, and current
orders*

[12:14] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Hmm. Maybe we should get on that, next time we have a longer leave."

[12:14] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Mailliard] I will try, sir.

[12:14] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Now i am really curious about thier slime."

[12:14] [DOIC1] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He couldn't help but chuckle at being called 'sir' before he clapped Mailliard on the shoulder
and headed for the lift.*

[12:15] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Maybe one could make a protective body armor out of that, that already seals a wound, if
the armor was penetrated with that fluid.

[12:15] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he shrugged* Maybe, but I mean, we got all this time off duty and such.. Could always work on bits.

[12:15] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "A booger suit?"

[12:15] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "We could put some time away every week to work on it?"

[12:16] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: We can. *he shrugged*

[12:16] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "That's not a bad idea."

[12:17] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "some type of self healing suit?" --she thinks about that a moment.--

[12:17] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Charity nods and smiles at T'sahriv.*

[12:17] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: No... you have your armor plates on the outside and on the inside you have this fluid in an
extra hull or something. If the armor is penetrated, the fluid will be too. This way the wound would >

[12:17] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Marcus stepped into the lift and started heading to the next deck.*

[12:18] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: "Have a good Shift ensign" *returns the smile* "I will fill in Kurtz before Gamma watch, so you don't
have to worry about that"

[12:18] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: < would automaticly be sealed and protected from infections and so on. You would still be
hurt, but the late follows of that injury would be smaller, as their is no time where an infection could >

[12:18] [DOIC1] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Wiebe] Thanks sweetie!

[12:18] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: But first, Ricky here gotta have his fruity loops.*he glanced at him* It's about that time now right?

[12:18] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "that could be interesting."

[12:18] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Once the lift doors opened again he started off for the mess hall... and his tacos.*

[12:19] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *hands over the bridge to the beta watch officer of the day*

[12:19] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: < attack the body. This way, i only have to clean and close the wound, but everything else
is done already by that suit.

[12:19] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "I was thinking we should have those frosted corn flakes this time!"

[12:19] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "Well I will let you milk thier fluids. But, I can help with the analysis."

[12:19] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *takes one last look at the view screen before turning to the door, smiling at Desiree*

[12:20] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: With extra sugar?

[12:20] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Yeah, I like how it gets when there's all that sugar on the bottom of the bowl and
you can scrape it up with the milk..."

[12:20] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: In most cases, it is not the actual wound that kills you, but the infection you get from
the piece that penetrated your body.

[12:21] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "None of those chocolate pillows with vanilla inside?"

[12:21] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: That's the best part, chugging that cold milk with the lumpy ugar clumped at the bottom.

[12:21] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Also bleeding would be stopped by that fluid also.

[12:21] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *nods to T's*

[12:21] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "My curiosity is now overidding my natural dusgust reaction."

[12:21] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: *returns the nod and takes her leave of the bridge*

[12:21] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Its like putting some form of clue into that wound.

[12:22] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He got to the replicator.*  "Steak tacos, extra salsa, extra guac, and a raspberry iced tea."

[12:22] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "That wonderful ice cold cereal milk!"  *He grinned.*

[12:22] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: Cereal night in the mess hall it is! *he waved at everyone*

[12:23] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "...Cold cereal milk... you people are heretics." *He follows to mess hall.*w

[12:23] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: *he snorted* I mean it preserves the milk longer than those warm milk plebs..

[12:23] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "And tastes worse"

[12:24] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *smiles at that* Well we can look at their body fluid and if you want you can help me with
that later. Its something to work on while we dont have anything else to research.

[12:24] [DOIC2] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Ewww, wouldn't it go bad?"

[12:24] [DOIC2] Damian@the5of435: That's what I'm saying!

[12:24] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "that would be great doctor. i like researching new stuff."

[12:24] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Marcus settled in at a table and went to down on his tacos.*

[12:24] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *town ))

[12:24] [DOIC2] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: 'Why would it go bad? You heat up the milk while it's in the bowl. You don't just keep
the milk warm."

[12:25] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *He walked up to the replicator and ordered himself frosted flakes with extra sugar*

[12:25] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He ordered the same thing.*

[12:25] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he glared at Bore* you heat the milk up for cereal!?

[12:25] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: That's disgusting!

[12:25] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Good. *He looks at his cup* I will get a new cup of coffee. If you want you can follow me
to the mess hall. You should probably have a glas a water, too.

[12:25] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "You know nothing, Damian Snow."

[12:25] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Warm milk is only for hot chocolate!"

[12:25] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: "I relly should go check on snowball. I worry he might tear up the furniture if I leave him
alone to long."

[12:25] [DOIC1] Desiree@Illuice: *leaves the bridge after the handover*

[12:25] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: I know nothing? You know nothing!

[12:25] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Warm milk is disgusting for cereal.

[12:26] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: Its a tribble. He wont destroy furniture. He lays in one place...

[12:26] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore shakes his head.* "Heretics, the lot of you." *He takes a bowl of honey rings...
with warm milk.*

[12:26] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: and eats all day.

[12:26] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she shrugs-- "I don't know doc, he get pretty rambunctious."

[12:26] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: *walks up to the replicator and getsherself a large juicy steak with a pile of mash and a decent
amount of gravy*

[12:26] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: That is totally disgusting I may just vomit all over it to make it sound better.. *he wlked over to a
table and sat down*

[12:26] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He considered it and also ordered a cup of hot chocolate with extra whipped cream.*

[12:27] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *raises an eyebrow to that* If you say so. Then i wish you a good night.

[12:27] [DOIC3] Ezri Tegan@Demoncherub: --she give him a wave and turns to leave.--

[12:27] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *also leaves for the mess hall*

[12:27] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Marcus was almost finished with his tacos already by the time the engineers sat down nearby.*

[12:27] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore nods at Marcus, remembering him from the small temporal misadventure, before
sitting down at the table.*

[12:28] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy snakes up on Desiree.*

[12:28] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Marcus toasted Bore with his taco.*

[12:28] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Hmm something to drink? I think apple juice" *she nods and takes a tray with her plate of food and
class of juice*

[12:28] [DOIC2] Desiree@Illuice: *Lurks in her room, filling paperwork*

[12:28] [DOIC4] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *puts his cup into the replicator* "Coffee, black, four sugar"

[12:29] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: *smiles at Marcus* "May I join you?"

[12:29] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he had a disgusted look on his face the moment he saw warm milk with cereal* Disgusting.

[12:29] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore digs into the warm cereal with voracity.*

[12:29] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *Cathy sneaks up behind the chair.*

[12:29] [DOIC4] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *takes his cup and turns to search for a free table*

[12:30] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He looked up at T'sahriv with his mouthful, chewing hastily a moment before he swallowed.*
"By all means.  It's T'sah... T'sahriv, right?"

[12:30] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He chowed down on his frosted flakes without a care.*

[12:30] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Currect, may I call you Marcus?" *she sits down and starts to dig into her mash and steak*

[12:31] [DOIC4] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *sips from his cup before he takes out a padd, begining to read something*

[12:31] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he shoved spoonfuls of his cold cereal loaded with sugar eagerly*

[12:31] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Sure.  You don't have a nickname I could call you, do ya?"  *He chuckled.*  "Call it dumb
human syndrome that makes some names harder to pronounce."

[12:32] [DOIC2] Desiree@Illuice: "Hello love"

[12:32] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Darn...foiled again.

[12:33] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: *smirks giving a light shrug* "At the Academy I was either called T or Storm, since my name
translated means Of Storm, or Of the Storm"

[12:34] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Storm?  Sounds edgy.  I think my name just got picked off a list of the millions of names
being kicked around since Rome was a thing."

[12:34] [DOIC2] Desiree@Illuice: "It is hard to sneak on a betazoid love"

[12:34] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] You can't succeed if you don't try!

[12:35] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Think we should get started on our plan tomorrow?"

[12:35] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Don't know how edgy it is, but I was born during a storm I am told, so they parents decided that
should be my name, not very imaginative"

[12:35] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: What plan?

[12:36] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Funny enough, you're not the only person I know who was named like that.  Her name was
Tempest, though.  So almost the same thing."

[12:37] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: 'The deck."

[12:37] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: That name sounds just as bad as the warm milk concept of yours..

[12:37] [DOIC2] Desiree@Illuice: *smiles* "So, slugs in cute shirts?"

[12:38] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Some parents lack imagination or cant agree on something else, my father wanted to give me a Human
name, my mother a Vulcan name, its hard enough to come up with names for one race"

[12:38] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "What about the 'minideck?'"

[12:38] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: I like his name better.

[12:38] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] You thought they were...cute?

[12:38] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: And yes.. totally biased too.

[12:38] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Guess your mom won that argument, though," *he smirked.*

[12:38] [DOIC2] Desiree@Illuice: "They where so happy"

[12:39] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I know. For the record, I'm biased when it comes to you too as well."

[12:39] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Well my father in the heat of the moment called out Just call her storm then, to which my mother
replied T'sahriv it is then"

[12:39] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "You two should really try to get along better, you're friends after all!"

[12:39] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Yes but...slugs.

[12:40] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: See.. we got something in common.

[12:40] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: *looks over at the engineers briefly before looking back to Marcus*

[12:40] [DOIC2] Desiree@Illuice: *shrugs* "Spacefaring slugs?"

[12:41] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "You know, that sounds like the same kind of argument that got one of the girls I knew back
home named 'Summer Sky.'"  *He grimaced slightly.*

[12:41] [DOIC4] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *sips his cup again as he scrolls down on his padd*

[12:41] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "summer Sky? I think I would have slapped my parents had they named me that"

[12:41] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Damn right. We agree that Ricky is the best one here."

[12:42] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Might've contributed to some of her behaviour..."  *He scratched his beard.*

[12:42] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "What?"

[12:42] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Yeah what?

[12:43] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "How did she behave?"

[12:43] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "You and me are asses, Damian, you know that.'

[12:43] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Let's put it this way, only way I ended up meeting her is because she found her way into my
old gang back home."

[12:43] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Yeah so?

[12:43] [DOIC2] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: [Baker] Now they are. *She giggles softly.*

[12:43] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "You guys are nice... even if sometimes you cuss and tell lies."

[12:44] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: When have I ever lied to you Ricky?

[12:44] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Guilty as charged... And so? That we agree on, Ricky is the nicest one here."

[12:44] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "You haven't, I meant Bore."

[12:44] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "...Tear my heart out, why don't you?"

[12:44] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he eyed Bore*

[12:44] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: I's the warm milk.. outright corrupts you.

[12:45] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I'd rather say it was a person who corrupted me."

[12:45] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "You're the one that lied to us about falling down stairs."

[12:45] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Into a gang? what kind of gang?"

[12:45] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Mhmm.. that you did.

[12:46] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Wow, guilt trip much?"

[12:46] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Kind that recruits thirteen-year-olds and teaches them to shoot other thirteen-year-olds," *He
frowned a little.*

[12:46] [DOIC4] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *stands up and puts his padd away, before he makes his way quietly to sickbay again*

[12:47] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "It wasn't a trip at all!"

[12:47] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Ahh, you don't have to say any more, I understand, how long have you been out of the Academy?"

[12:47] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Yeah man.. you brought this onto yourself..

[12:47] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: *enters sickbay* Alright Ladies... lets see how clean thoose bunks are now.

[12:48] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He shrugged.*  "Five years, nearly six.  You?"

[12:48] [DOIC3] DGMAngelboy@ClingingMars: *The biobeds are clean.*

[12:48] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Wow... I thought my conscience could take it."

[12:48] [DOIC3] Sebastian Mueller@lll#6015: We will see about that.

[12:48] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: You brought it onto yourself. *he leaned back before furrowing his brow* Wait.. didn't I jus say that

[12:49] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: ?

[12:49] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Lying only hurts yourself, you know."

[12:49] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, I don't mind being hurt."

[12:49] [DOIC1] T'sahriv@awendra: " Just past four year by now I believe, had a few asignments before this one"

[12:49] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: " Just past four year by now I believe, had a few asignments before this one"

[12:50] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Yeah?  Anything noteworthy?"

[12:50] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: COurse you don't.. you just tell us a lie.

[12:50] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he grinned*

[12:51] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Supply and crew transports mostly, even did supply runs to the citadel a number of times, I have to
admit"

[12:51] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: *smiles shrugging slightly*

[12:52] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, no... don't look at it as a lie, look at it as... creative storytelling."

[12:52] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Bit of a change to swap to a Vigilant class, huh?  But I bed the accomodations are about the
same at least."

[12:52] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: No.. it was a lie.

[12:52] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *bet ))

[12:53] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "That doesn't make it any better..."

[12:53] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Jesus, when I said I didn't mind being hurt, I didn't mean emotionally."

[12:53] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Hehe yeah not far from it, but yeah its a big change, the Protector is far more manuvable, and our
missions, well never get to make first contact on a supply ship"

[12:54] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: You brought this onto yourself.. *he leaned back again*

[12:54] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he then narrowed his eyes, more so at himself*

[12:54] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *Marcus nodded.*  "I was posted on a Sovereign class before this, it's... kind of an
adjustment.*  "He frowned down at his unfinished tacos.*

[12:55] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Mean."

[12:55] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Just be honest in the future and it won't hurt any more!"  *He slurped his cereal
milk from the bowl.*

[12:56] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "A Sovereign? what was that like? I only helmed one in simulations on a holodeck"

[12:56] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Okay, okay, I won't."

[12:56] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *his spoon clinked against the bottom of his bowl as he scooped up the extra sugar clump* Yeah man..

[12:57] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "It was absolutely massive.  Got my own room, too, even when I was only a junior lieutenant.
And so many people aboard..."  *He frowned even deeper for a moment.*

[12:59] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "ITs a large crew on a ship that size, and many luxuries we don't have, right? How long were you a
Junior before promoted to full Lieutenant?"

[12:59] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He put the bowl down with a milk mustache on his upper lip.*

[12:59] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore chuckles, pointing to his own upper lip.* "You got something here."

[12:59] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he grabbed his napkin and wiped Ricky's lip clean*

[1:00] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Mhm.  Multiple holodecks and other facilities..."  *He shrugged.*  "I think I was a junior
about three and a half years, just made full lieutenant about six months ago."

[1:00] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Oh, thanks Dame!"

[1:01] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: No problem buddy! *he smiled* I got your back.

[1:01] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "I have yours too!"

[1:02] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "I will admit that is one thing I am looking forward to, getting to full Lieutenant, But I am not in a rush"

[1:02] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Well, you're sure to earn it faster on a ship like this than on a cargo transport."

[1:02] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Thanks buddy. *he smiled*

[1:03] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Can I ask you something though?"

[1:04] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: What is it?

[1:04] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Why do you keep that old, crusty sock by your bunk?  It's been there since I got here!"

[1:05] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Oh the crusty sock that's been there since before I took the room over?

[1:05] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: I don't want to touch that.

[1:06] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "That's not yours?"

[1:06] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "I would think so, things seem to already be moving fast, gone from flying transports to Chief Flight Controller on a ship like this, not something I expected" *she smiles with a hint of pride*

[1:06] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore makes an absolutely disgusted expression.* "Duuuuude."

[1:06] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Hell no it ain't.. That's nasty.

[1:06] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "You must've impressed someone, clearly," *he chuckled.*

[1:06] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I thought you were here since the protector was refitted?"

[1:07] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: I've also switched rooms three times..

[1:07] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "It smells pretty bad, too."

[1:07] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Oh. Why?"

[1:07] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Maybe, my last captain said my skills were wasted on supply runs, what about you, did you join the Protector as Chief Security officer?"

[1:08] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: No twice.. the first time I was with the old chief flight officer, he left, then Kara and I bunked together after..

[1:08] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "

[1:08] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I see..."

[1:09] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: .. Then we uh. split, and uh I had my own room by myself while I.. well you know, did the thing.

[1:09] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He nodded.*  "Bit of a jump from gamma shift security lead, but I think it was more of a convenience thing.  My ship was lost at the same time that their old chief of security decided to transfer."

[1:09] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "The thing? Spacr?"

[1:10] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "What's Spacr?"

[1:10] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: No Spacr came after the thing.. *he rubbed the back of his neck* Let's change subjects yeah? That's no fun.

[1:11] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Perhaps, but in my experience starfleet rare does things out of Convenience, they most have seen something in you as well"

[1:11] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Cool... so... what did you do during the long leave?"

[1:11] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: I hit up my matches on Spacr when I wasn't working.

[1:12] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He picked up his half-eaten taco with a shrug.*  "Maybe I'm just more of a cynic," *he chuckled.*  "That and I've been reading my predecessor's notes too much."

[1:13] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I had a klingon teach me something about bat'leths, I had my nose broken by my girl, and I had an overall good time... needed it after the battle."

[1:13] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "I have found very little on my predecessor, but perhaps that is for the best"

[1:13] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: What about you Ricky? Find someone that you fancied?

[1:14] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He shook his head.*  "Nope!"

[1:15] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Have you even talked to anyone?

[1:15] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Maybe.  From the way mine writes, you'd think this ship was about to fall into chaos any minute."

[1:15] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "I've talked to lots of people."

[1:16] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Slight case of paranoia?"

[1:16] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Any of them girls you found cute?

[1:16] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I think it was more that she doubted everyone's competency.  But no one seems to be doing badly so far."

[1:16] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "All women are beautiful!"

[1:17] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he nodded* Yep.. but did you talk to any girls you may have liked?

[1:17] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Um... well..."  *He blushed bashfully.*

[1:18] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "from what I can tell the crew performs well, maybe with the exception of an ensign being a bit to expressive" *she giggles lightly*

[1:18] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Aw, you can trust us, buddy."

[1:18] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Oh come on Ricky.. you can tell us.. *he grinned* We want wants best for you.

[1:18] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "She seems a bit... quirky."

[1:19] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "She does, but she will learn, ensigns generally do"

[1:19] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Well... uhh... I didn't really talk to her but there was this pretty denobulan girl..."

[1:20] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I think she's the chief science officer.  Which is... weird, considering she's an ensign."

[1:20] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Oooh. You should approach her if you see her again. You have this... youthful innocence most girls would find absolutely adorable.'

[1:20] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: He's right..

[1:21] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "You think so?  I've never had a lot of luck with girls."

[1:21] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Hmm that is a bit strange, but there is likely good reason behind it"

[1:21] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Well... how do you approach them?

[1:21] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Short handed?"  *He shrugged and sipped his iced tea.*

[1:21] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he smirked suddenly*

[1:22] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "I ask my friends to ask her friends to ask her."

[1:22] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Nooo dude. that's not how it's suppose to go

[1:22] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "It isn't?"

[1:22] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "or unable to find a higher ranked science officer wiling to serve on a ship like this"

[1:23] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "I can't imagine they get that much work.  If there's even a science lab it's probably the size of a closet on a Sovereign."

[1:23] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Just... talk to her yourself."

[1:23] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: No dude.. that rarely works..

[1:23] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "It's how I got my last girlfriend!"

[1:23] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Yeah listen to Bore. *he blinked* Yeah.. listen to two dudes who are struggling with such an issue...

[1:23] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Precisely"

[1:24] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Protector probably feels like training wheels until they can get an assignment with a full-sized ship.  Or even a science vessel."

[1:25] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "...How am I struggling?"

[1:25] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: We're still single.

[1:25] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "You mean you are."

[1:25] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Remember?  His girlfriend headbutted him!"

[1:25] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: You aren't?

[1:25] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Oh that wasn't a fling?

[1:26] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Nope. Second real date with her. Met her on the Citadel before the whole Bajor business."

[1:26] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he squinted* Soo.. I guess it takes two dates to make it a thing now huh?

[1:27] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Sounds about right, now if you would excuse me, I need some rest before I brief the gamma watch Flight controller"

[1:27] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: *gets to her feet with a smile*

[1:27] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Well.. technically, it didn't need two dates."

[1:27] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He nodded.*  "Sleep well, Stormy," *he smirked at her.*

[1:28] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "Thanks, was nice talking to you"

[1:28] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He tilted his head to the side.*

[1:28] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: "Yeah, you too.  See you on the bridge."

[1:28] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he squinted again* Soo.. you two are on the same page?

[1:28] [DOIC4] T'sahriv@awendra: "indeed"

[1:28] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I think we are."

[1:28] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: *He went back to devouring his tacos.*

[1:29] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Uh?

[1:30] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: There's a difference between.. knowing.. and believing.. you know?

[1:31] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Well. We've not... talked about it. But by the way she acts, and the way she gets me to act... it's not just about the headbutting.

[1:31] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: I mean.. she probably hated your nose for all we know..

[1:32] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Do you looove her?"  *He sipped his hot chocolate.*

[1:32] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Um... she makes certain feelings rise up in me."

[1:33] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: You mean rigid? *he smirked*

[1:33] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "That too."

[1:33] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Rigid feelings?"

[1:33] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: No Ricky.. rigid.. *he eyed down at his pants*

[1:34] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He looked a little uncomfortable when Damian looked at his pants.*

[1:34] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Ricky.. please tell me such talk hasn't gotten you all riled up down there?

[1:35] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "What?  No!"

[1:35] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he facepalmed* Dude.. it's all just talk here..

[1:35] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "It's just a crease in my pants!"  *He smoothed it out.*  "See?!"

[1:35] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he eyed him again* You know.. we got bathrooms for such a thing if you wanted to sort it out.

[1:36] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "I don't need to pee?"

[1:36] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore hides a smirk with his hand.*

[1:36] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: I'll even get up and replicate something for you to hold so you can hide.

[1:37] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "I don't have anything to hide, that's dirty."

[1:37] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore chuckles, enjoying the way Ricky is distracting Dame from the main line of questioning.*

[1:37] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Ok.. it's fine buddy.. I trust you.. I was only messing with you. *he grinned*

[1:38] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "You're such a hooligan, Damian!"

[1:38] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Yeah, Damian!"

[1:39] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he shrugged before eyeing bore* Anyways! So do you

[1:39] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: ?

[1:40] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Have feelings of some kind? Yes."

[1:40] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Ohh, are you going to get married?"

[1:40] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: A little too soon for that Ricky..

[1:41] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Very soon..."

[1:41] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "But didn't they already, um... do the..."

[1:41] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "We did?" *Tilts his head.*

[1:41] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He whispered so only they could hear.*  "The s-e-x thing?"

[1:41] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Yep, he's been inside of her, what? twice now?

[1:41] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: I hope?

[1:42] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: You did.. right?

[1:42] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Twice?

[1:42] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Twice."

[1:42] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: My boy! *he reached with his hand toward him*

[1:43] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *High fives Dame.*

[1:44] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He watched them both curiously.*

[1:45] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: It's customary to congratulate him Ricky..

[1:45] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Yeah. It's just a thing that guys do."

[1:45] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Oh!  Um, congratulations on your new girlfriend!"

[1:46] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Nah, you're supposed to just do this." *Holds his hand out for a high five.* "Slap it."

[1:47] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He gave Bore his high five.*  "Now in the middle!"  *He lowered his hand slightly.*

[1:47] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: No I meant on the sex part.. he's still gotta clear that bit about the girlfriend part with her.

[1:47] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Can't just assume things you know..

[1:48] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Goes to hit it in the middle, before looking to Dame.* "You're right."

[1:48] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "But she doesn't exactly act the way she would if it were something less than this."

[1:48] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Down low!"  *He lowered his arm again, his palm facing upward.*

[1:48] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: *Bore slaps again.*

[1:48] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He pulled his hand back and jerked a thumb over his shoulder.*  "Too slow!"  *he laughed.*

[1:49] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I did not expect betrayal like that from you, Ricky."

[1:49] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "It's just silliness, Bore."

[1:50] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: Duh..

[1:51] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "I know that."

[1:52] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Well I hope it works out with your maybe-girlfriend!"

[1:54] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Thanks, Ricky, so do I."

[1:55] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He yawned softly.*

[1:55] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: *he gave Ricky and Bore a pensive look before sighing* Guess it's time to get some sleep.

[1:55] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Mhm, that hot chocolate made me sleepy."

[1:56] [DOIC4] Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon1: "Good night, you two.. I think the cereal didn't fil all the holes, I'll stay here and get something else as well."

[1:57] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He got up and put his stuff back on his little tray.*  "Good night, Bore."

[1:57] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: .. Yeah man.. night. *he got up and quietly returned his tray into the replicator*

[1:58] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  *He went to recycle his stuff as well.*  "Maybe we should try to throw away the sock before we go to sleep?"

[1:59] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: You want to wear the hazmat suit? Go ahead. *he quietly left the messhall for their quarters*

[1:59] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "Well we could get a stick or something and fling it into the replicator!"

[1:59] [DOIC4] Damian@the5of435: You could do that Ricky..

[2:00] [DOIC4] Marcus Blaine@liorexus: [Ricky]  "I hope there's nothing living inside it..."
