Sentinel 9/16

[9:30] [DOIC] Varel@liorexus: *The STAR TREK: SENTINEL theme plays!*

[9:30] [DOIC] Varel@liorexus: *The scene opens on the mess hall of the Sentinel, where people are using these last few hours to mentally prepare for the mission ahead.*

[9:30] [DOIC] Varel@liorexus: *Go!*

[9:32] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri held her tray of her food in front of herself, looking around for a place to sit. She saw Varel... no, no, no. That is a no-sitting zone. She then headed to Spence's table.*

[9:32] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Ma'am Doctor? Would you mind if I sat with you? If it's not a problem for you, of course!

[9:32] [DOIC2] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon is relaxing in his quarters for the moment.*

[9:33] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel was in her usual corner, on her usual PADD, with her usual mug of black tea on the table before her.*

[9:36] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she looks up absently-- "Oh hello there Veeri."

[9:37] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "please have a seat."

[9:37] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Smiles at the doctor, nodnodding her greeting, as the earrings in shape of cute bunny heads she had on dangled.* "Thankyou."

[9:38] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --takes a sip of her coffee--

[9:38] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "How are you, Ma'am?"

[9:38] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Those are lovely earrings."

[9:38] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "That remains to be seen."

[9:38] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Thank you! I really love them, but can't wear them too often, since I am mostly in uniform."

[9:39] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri nods at Spence.* "No worries, Ma'am... we will get this mission done with."

[9:39] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she nods--

[9:39] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Especially being on the bridge."

[9:39] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel was stoically slaughtering Yanda players in KWC.  Pew, pew.*

[9:40] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: [Ankos] *Was ingame too, using a female player character looking surprisingly like him.*

[9:40] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she glances out toward the windows and the strange cratered world they are orbiting."

[9:40] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Do you feel a bit of... unease, looking at it, too?"

[9:40] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel immediately targeted the female Ankos and attempted a headshot.*

[9:41] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: [Femkos] *Got her brains splattered out by some klingon before Varel could even aim.*

[9:41] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I suppose. i just can't help but worry about just what it is that is waiting for me down there."

[9:42] [DOIC3] Varel@liorexus: *Satisfied regardless, LogicalFallacy27 continued her path of destruction across the virtual map.*

[9:42] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "I would not worry if I were you, Ma'am. You'll probably have the deltas with you! And security... you would be in good hands!"

[9:42] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --does not seem at all comforted by that thought--

[9:43] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --takes another sip of her coffee.--

[9:43] [DOIC3] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: [ComtesseDeChalons] *Was slaughtering Yanda as well, holding down a chokepoint at a bridge using melee weapons.*

[9:44] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri would awkwardly go to put her hand on top of Spence's.* "I believe in you, doctor! I read some reports, and you were even down at DS9 during the battle of Bajor! If there's anything unpleasant>

[9:44] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Waiting for you down there, it should be the one worrying."

[9:45] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she laughs at that--

[9:46] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri beams, happy to hear the doctor laughing, and lets out an unwilling happy purr for a moment.*

[9:46] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "It is mostly just nerver, more than any real fear."

[9:46] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: **nerves

[9:47] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "I can understand. I've never gone on too many away missions, but they are always a bit... ehrm. They make my stomach churn."

[9:47] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I just feel lie whatever is down there is significant."

[9:48] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "I do not doubt it is. However, with so many capable people like you down there, I doubt it could be in better hands."

[9:49] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Well whatever it is...we will find out I suppose."

[9:49] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri nodnods.* "It is important to the pixies... we owe it to them to help them out... Have you met them yet?"

[9:50] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Sort of...I mean I have talked to Val and she was talking to them at the time."

[9:51] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Oh. So you've not talked to them in person?"

[9:51] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: Not directly."

[9:51] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "That's a shame, they're adorable." *She leans in to whisper, looking at Varel.*

[9:52] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --can't help but follow Veeri's eye toward Varel as well.--

[9:53] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel appeared to be fully focused on her PADD.*

[9:53] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I can imagine. They sound almost as mischevious as the pony."

[9:53] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "A bit more manageable, though. Not fair, though, miss Val gets all the cute helpers."

[9:54] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Well not all of them."

[9:55] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "True! I've seen yours in sickbay, they are wonderful!"

[9:55] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "oh yeah, we have an over abundance of cuteness in cickbay."

[9:55] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: **sickbay

[9:56] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Next time you see him pinch Doctor DeSoto's cheeks."

[9:56] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Yes! There's also Spot with the deltas... I'm so in love with him, having him around for a bit in my quarters was great."

[9:56] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "...Wouldn't the Doctor get offended?"

[9:57] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Tell him how cute he is and all will be forgiven."

[9:57] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Spot is a pet rock."

[9:58] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Okay!" *Another happy purr* "And he is! He is so snuggly! I went to lay on the couch and he immediately came to join me and Sissia and snuggle... he is so, so precious."

[9:58] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Endel has trained him so nicely!"

[9:58] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "You Horta spew acid right?"

[9:59] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "But only when they want to, right? He didn't do anything bad to me while we snuggled?"

[9:59] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I would keep my distance in case he has an accident."

[10:00] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Aw... I don't want to get a pet, though, so he is a wonderful replacement..."

[10:02] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I have some mint plants I am growing. But, I don't like to think of them as pets because I intend to use them for mojitos."

[10:03] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Well... I would want something fuzzy. An epohh, or a kitten... but I can barely take care of myself, much less an animal. And I don't want to just give Sissia more responsibilities."

[10:04] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Get one of those holopets."

[10:04] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I hear they are almost as good as the real thing."

[10:06] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Oh! That sounds wonderful... do they have things like penguins?"

[10:07] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I think they have pretty much anything."

[10:09] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Oh! So I -could- get a penguin! Awww! I would teach it to carry a tray of drink and it would be like a little waiter in a tuxedo!"

[10:12] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: ---she stares at Veeri for a few moments.-- "um yeah sure."

[10:12] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "...Did I say something wrong?!"

[10:13] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she shrugs-- "No. That just caught me by surprise."

[10:13] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Um. Sorry. You know I can get a bit... excitable?"

[10:14] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "i understand."

[10:14] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Anyways... when your plants are ready, could you teach me how to make these... uh? Mojito, you said?"

[10:14] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "oh sure. It is pretty easy really."

[10:15] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Great! So what is it? Is it kind of like a salad? I'm learning new recipes to cook for Sissia, so I am sure she would appreciate something healthy and nice!"

[10:16] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "it is a drink recipe."

[10:17] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Oh. I still would like to learn it, though... I like trying out new stuff like that... Oh! I could sing to your plants too, if you want? I've raed that it helps them grow."

[10:18] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "I could probably teach you make a few different drinks. Let's just say I have had some experience with drinking."

[10:19] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "I am not much of a drinker, but I would love to be able to make drinks for my friends."

[10:19] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she smiles-- "oh yeah, that to."

[10:20] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I am aterrible cook."

[10:20] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Well, I Could help show you some things? It's one of the few things I do well."

[10:22] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Oh! I could teach you grandpa's soup, the one I made for miss Varel! She seems to have gotten better after her fever, so it probably worked its magic!"

[10:22] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I have tried to learn..." --she looks like she is remembering something unpleasant, she shudders a little before turning to look at Veeri-- "it would just be safer if i left the cooking to otheres."

[10:23] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "oh yeah I am sure the soup helped."

[10:23] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she gives Veeri a sympathetic smile--

[10:23] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Tilts her head sideways a bit.* "Um. Okay? Didn't you take chemistry as a doctor?" *She then beams.* "I know! My grandpa really knew his stuff!"

[10:24] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Sure, but chemistry is science...cooking is an art."

[10:24] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "Of course. But the basic ideas are the same."

[10:26] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she shruggs-- "I guess."

[10:27] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri's padd lets out two long beeps.* "Oh, it's time for my medication, Doctor! I'll go take it and then go get some sleep."

[10:27] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she nods and smiles-- "Have a wonderful night."

[10:28] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: "You too!" *Veeri leans in to give a loving hug to Spence.*

[10:28] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --returns the hug--

[10:29] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: ((didn't actually draw her wepon on Veeri as she came in for the hug.))

[10:29] [DOIC1] Veeri Relidia@bulgariandragon1: *Veeri lets out another small purr, then lets go.* "Good night!" *She turns to leave.*

[10:30] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon walks in, curiously eying the fellow in armor on the couch.*

[10:32] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon walks up to the counter, ordering a drink.*

[10:32] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --sips her coffee--

[10:33] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Oh! Hey Billie.

[10:33] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --glanceing sround the room.--

[10:33] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: *is sprawled across the couch. staring at a PADD.*

[10:33] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --her eye fix on Jon-- "Oh hey Jon. How's it going?"

[10:34] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Good. You?

[10:35] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she glances out the window at the strange lifeless alien world below.-- "oh I am okay."

[10:36] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Have you heard any more from our...friends/?

[10:36] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon glanecs at the couch again, tilting his head.*

[10:36] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she shakes her head-- "Not in the last few hours."

[10:37] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she glances over at the couch as well--

[10:37] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she then leans closer to Jon, and in a hushed voice-- "Does that guy ever take that suit off?"

[10:38] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Do you no'tice where he's sitting? *Jon whispers.*

[10:38] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "yeah the couch. What about it?"

[10:40] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I dunno...I just remember that being a spot Seb liked.

[10:40] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she laughs, well if was here they could fight over it."

[10:42] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I'd pay to see that.

[10:42] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she glances over at the couch, then back to Jon-- "I am going to go talk to him."

[10:43] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: What the shit?! -he tosses the PAD over his shoulder and tosses his hands in the air- Done!

[10:43] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon nods, blinking a bit at the outburst.*

[10:44] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she walks over and plops down on the couch.--

[10:44] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she smiles at the stranger-- "Rough day?"

[10:45] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she sips her coffee.--

[10:45] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Exasperating is more accurate.

[10:46] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "I've had days like that. You know it might be less frustrating if you were dressed more...comfortably."

[10:47] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks over at Varel.*

[10:48] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: I'm sure your first thought after finding out you've jumped forward in time is to wear a bathrobe and smoke a cigar.

[10:48] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel was still staring intently at her PADD.*

[10:48] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Probably. That can be pretty stressful."

[10:49] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: I guess sarcasm doesn't translate well through a modulator. Anyway, I've pretty much lived in this thing for four months.

[10:50] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she blinks at that.-- "That sounds unpleasant."

[10:50] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: You should ask Butters about that. He had to clean and maintain it.

[10:51] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon waves to Varel.*

[10:51] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Her eyes flickered up from her PADD briefly.  She offered Jon a single nod.*

[10:52] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "So have to at least come out of there to shower and to take care of important bodily functions like eating and releaving yourself."

[10:54] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Depends. It does have certain... features that allow a limited amount of... biofunctions to occur for a period of time before it's necessary for removal.

[10:55] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she sips her coffee, studying the stranger intently-- "...ew."

[10:55] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: And depending on energy expenditure, you can push that timeline along for a bit as well. Depends on the level of activity. Also allows fo intravenous consuption of sustenance.

[10:55] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Wel we're sort of still here. :D

[10:57] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I am not sure those working conditions you describe conform to Federation regulations."

[10:58] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: That's cute.

[11:00] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --her eyes narrow-- "It wasn't meant to be. I am quite serious."

[11:00] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: By all means, write an angry letter... uh.. you.

[11:01] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I am pretty sure that months on end of existing like that would take a toll on you both physically and psychologically."

[11:01] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: That's why they gave me a doctor.

[11:03] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she frowns-- "Well look if you don't mind and your doctor isn't concerned, I won't worry about it."

[11:04] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Less worried about my hygiene, more worried about displacement through time. You know. Priorities.

[11:04] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she leans back on the couch and sips her drink.--

[11:06] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I am sure all of it is worth at least a little concern. I can't say if the time displacment had any significant physical impact."

[11:06] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "If you are concerned I could run some tests."

[11:08] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: OH, god. You're a doctor. No thanks, I have a very intrusive one already. It's more a matter of yesterday for me was fighting Tzenkethi, and that was months ago for you.

[11:09] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: -he chucks a thumb over his shoulder- That Battle of Bajor bullshit was exactly the kind of thing we were supposed to try and suppress, delay and prevent. So ther's that. o

[11:12] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "Look I don't know what your mission was exactly, but from the sounds of it this time jump was a completely unforseen complication. So I don't think you should be too hard on yourself."

[11:12] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: It's /irritating/, is all.

[11:13] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "That is usually the point where I take a long sonic shower and drink some chamomille tea."

[11:15] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: I'll be completely honest with you, I don't really care about what you'd do. Our being here is a major misstep in our operational directives. But it was either allow this or blow ourselves up.

[11:15] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: But that's just dumb.

[11:17] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "yeah that would be kind of dumb."

[11:17] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Besides, there wasn't a reason to really kill al of you in the process.

[11:19] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she frowns--

[11:19] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Hey, now. Don't pout. It wouldn't have been on purpose.

[11:20] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "on purpose or not the result would be the same."

[11:20] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Yeah. Plus a planet. Probably.

[11:22] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she shrugs and looks out the window at the planet.-- "I don't think you would be able to hurt this planet any more than it already has been."

[11:23] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Well, protomatter /is/ pretty volatile.

[11:24] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she nods slowly.--

[11:25] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: So yeah. Better be careful with the stuff.

[11:26] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I would appreciate it if you did so."

[11:27] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Oh, you don't have to worry about that. Our cargo /was/ a protomatter bomb. Now /your/ cargo is a protomater bomb. So.. make sure you're careful with it and everything.

[11:28] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Look if you turned the damn thing over to Shantal, I am sure it is in good hands."

[11:29] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Just saying. Survived one protomatter explosion, don't think we could get so lucky a second time.

[11:30] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "...yeah."

[11:31] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *walks in to the meshall and takes a place at the counter, speaking to the cheff* "Hello, a bowl of Trill-puffs with milk and some chococrips cookies, please"

[11:31] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Or maybe we could? Ooh. Maybe I'm immortal, and can subconsciously bend the universe to my whim!

[11:31] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "That wouldn't be the strangest thing I have ever seen."

[11:32] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: If Q can do, why can't I?

[11:33] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon waves.*

[11:33] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she thinks on that.--

[11:35] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: So now. Have I sufficiently disturbed you?

[11:35] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Picks up her tray and heads over to Jon* "Hello Jonathan, Mind if I join you?"

[11:36] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "is that your intent?"

[11:36] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I do not.

[11:36] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: I don't know. You tell me.

[11:37] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Puts down her tray and sits down, beeping her wrist thing a few times and takes a spoon of Trill-puffs*

[11:38] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Your tough guy routine isn't anything I haven't dealt with hundreds of times. You are not intiminfdating me."

[11:38] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: THere you go being adorable again.

[11:39] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon raises his eyebrows.*

[11:40] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "How are you doing, Jonathan?"

[11:40] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she takes a drink of her coffee and as she does her eye stay fixed on the stranger although they narrow somewhat.--

[11:41] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: -makes a very slightly tilt of his head as she leers-

[11:41] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I'm alright, how are you?

[11:42] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Quite alright"

[11:43] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon smiles.* That's good to hear.

[11:43] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I imagine your crew are glad to get some time off."

[11:44] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "How is Alice doing?"

[11:45] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: What? TIme off? You're seriously killing me with how cute you are. Naivete is simply endearing. Can I take you with us when we leave?

[11:45] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: She is doing much better now that we have a better understanding about the invisible person I was seeing.

[11:45] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "What I meant was ... time away from you."

[11:46] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Some Monica?"

[11:47] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: ...yeah.

[11:47] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Oh it's always something with them. I leave, I come back and they're pawing at me. Especially Black. So, you married?

[11:48] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I known a monica.. actually more then one... But I dubt they are th esame, Who was this person?"

[11:48] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "No. Not yet."

[11:48] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: /Can't/ imagine why. -pause- So adorable.

[11:48] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Why you lshopping around?"

[11:49] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Maybe. Seeing as we're "obsolete" now, market is open.

[11:49] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: She was an operations officer on the Sentinel.

[11:49] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "This sentinel or hte previous Sentinel?"

[11:50] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "obsolete? I am sure that afte a bit of reprogramming they will have another important misssion for you."

[11:51] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Previous.

[11:51] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I... will not pry" *She takes another scoop of puffs*

[11:53] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Teams like us are only together until the our missions are complete, then we're packaged back up and sent to be "normal" again.

[11:53] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: What do you want to know?

[11:53] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Until we're rotated through or "neded" again.

[11:53] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "What is wrong with normal?"

[11:54] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Nothing if you do not wish to talk about it, Jonathan"

[11:54] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Complacency and being comfortable for too long.. goes to the head.

[11:55] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I'm more open to talking about it than I was before.

[11:56] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *smiles gently* "If you do wish to talk about it I am here"

[11:56] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "There is a danger in never being comfortable, that goes to your head to."

[11:57] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: That's what vacations are for.

[11:59] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "Well at least you take vacations."

[11:59] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: You don't?

[11:59] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon smiles.* She was a friend to both of us.

[12:00] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "What was she like?"

[12:00] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "of course I do. I am normal."

[12:01] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Then what exactly were you insinuating? THat I didn't?

[12:01] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: "The mechanical man is all work no play"

[12:02] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Very nice...selfless...a talented musician.

[12:02] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "No. I was relieved that at least you recognized the need to take some time off to recharge. You don't have to be up on the watch tower all the time."

[12:03] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Sometimes you do. It depends on the situation. I did mention this suit was literally made for extended operation if neccessary.

[12:04] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "yeah, you mentioned that."

[12:04] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: -nods-

[12:04] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Sounds wonderful. Why is she visiting you now?"

[12:08] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Some sort of exterior signal...I guess it is tapping into something in my subconscious.

[12:08] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "So she has no message? Soemthing she seeks to make you aware of?"

[12:09] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I suppose you have everything under control. I should probably leave you to what ever frustration you were deaing with before i interupted.""

[12:09] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Power levels.

[12:11] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "What?"

[12:11] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Oh, and deprive me of your brilliant cuteness? Alas, I must stay strong.

[12:12] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she stands up--

[12:12] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I don't know whether you are being sarcastic or genuinely trying to be charming."

[12:13] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Maybe a little column A, maybe a little column B. I'l let you decide.

[12:14] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: "I will think on it later while enjoying my nightly cup of chamomille tea."

[12:14] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she says turning to leave-- "have a pleasant evening."

[12:14] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: If you need to take the extra edge off, a little brandy mixes nicely with tea.

[12:14] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Power levls.

[12:14] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon takes a sip.*

[12:14] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "i will consider that."

[12:15] [DOIC1] Spencer@Demoncherub: --she offers a polite smile before walking away.--

[12:15] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *stares at Jon for a second* "Please indulge me with an elaboration of the statement which I failed to comprehend the first time it was spoken"

[12:17] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: She keeps going on about power levels.

[12:17] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I don't know what to make of it.

[12:17] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Hmm...

[12:17] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "In what context?"

[12:18] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: It lacks context.

[12:18] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "She simply tells you 'Power levels' and that is all?"

[12:19] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I have to watch the power levels.

[12:20] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I wonder if it is tied to that vault"

[12:21] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: It seems to be trying to communiate something to me.

[12:21] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "The vault seemed to suffer some degree of issues with its power levels"

[12:22] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Interesting.

[12:22] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Billie has been receiving similiar messages.

[12:25] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "That is... rather strange. I in a sense udnerstand why spencer is targeted, but you?"

[12:26] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I don't know.

[12:28] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "What a mission, Temporal displacements, Whispering echoes. Pixies. Dead special operations, Protomatter... What is next I wonder?"

[12:29] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Flying pigs?

[12:29] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "What?"

[12:30] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: It was just a thought.

[12:31] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I suppose?"

[12:31] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: One of the most ridiculous things I could dthink of.

[12:34] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Some would call the political officers of the stanznavy flying pigs, I guess?"

[12:35] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I guesS?

[12:35] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Shrugs*

[12:36] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon takes a sip.*

[12:37] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "So is he still playing mysterious, wearing the tincan?" *she tilts her head in Romeos direction before taking another scoop of puffs*

[12:38] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Yup.

[12:39] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I suppose untill people start looking at th epieces, he can have his little fantasy"

[12:40] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Piences

[12:40] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: **Pieces, even

[12:40] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: -presses a button on his wrist the places a finger on his faceplate, dragging it to a different spot then pressing the button again. He nods to himself.

[12:41] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Pieces?

[12:42] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Oh I said to much. Forget it"

[12:43] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon scratches his head, looking over.*

[12:44] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: -hums mechanically, tapping at his wrist- Ha! The parrot thinks it's people.

[12:45] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks back to Xyl, tilting his head.*

[12:45] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Smiles sweetly before taking another scoop of puffs*

[12:46] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Huh.

[12:47] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Have you ever had romantic feelings for a ship?"

[12:49] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: Hmm. Oh. That's who she is. I bet teasing her will be fun. -he looks up from his wrist and looks around- Maybe I should go visit later and find out...

[12:50] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: What?

[12:50] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Shrugs* "Have you?"

[12:50] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Uhhh...not romantic.

[12:50] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I do feel a sense of attachment to the old Sentinel.

[12:51] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Oh yes, I feel like that for many ships. I think Dido and Hecate in particular"

[12:51] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I guess that's what you were trying to get at.

[12:51] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "No..."

[12:52] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: No?

[12:52] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "That a sentient do not always walk and act as you and I is hardly new..."

[12:52] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Ohhhhhhh.

[12:52] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Sery.

[12:53] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I... never exactly said that" *She blushes* "Not denying I care for her immensely"

[12:54] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: -turns his head slowly towards Jon and Xyl's direction, locks it there for a moment, then slowly turns it bad and presses a button on his wrist- Ha. Parrot again.

[12:54] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon smiles.*

[12:55] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I know.

[12:57] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Sometimes I am really rambeling"

[12:58] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I don't think you were rambling here.

[12:58] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Perhaps not. How is hte reading going?"

[1:00] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Uhhh...reading?

[1:00] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Improving your good leadership?"

[1:01] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Right. I uhhh...it's been a while.

[1:02] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I can not blame you, but I think it is time you get back to it"

[1:02] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: -suddenly stands up, pointing upwards diagonally at nothing in particular- I must go! My people need me!

[1:03] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *giggles at the comedic act by Romeo, sweetly waving to the superhero leaving*

[1:03] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks over.*

[1:03] [DOIC1] Romeo@Sebetharen: -starts skipping toward the door, waving his arms into alternating giant "S"s-

[1:04] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *innocently laughts to herself seeing the display*

[1:05] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks back to Xyl, baffled.*

[1:05] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Oh comon, that is cute!"

[1:06] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Cute?

[1:07] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Funny? Sweet? ammusing?"

[1:08] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I suppose.

[1:10] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Can you not do what when running on to the bridge sometime?" *she giggles jokingly*

[1:11] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I think we would witness a murder on the bridge.

[1:12] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "No, of course we would not"

[1:12] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: She would kill me.

[1:12] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Dalun? Alice?"

[1:14] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon gives her alook.* Alice.

[1:14] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Nooo, She would not. She maybe would ground you for a bit tho"

[1:17] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I think she would, and certainly never forgive me for having witnessed such a thing.

[1:18] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Oh do not be like that. I think she would find it funny"

[1:20] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I dunno...

[1:21] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "I remember this one time I had my wife believe she was insane, Whe nshe found out it was a joke she was soo upset for a while" *she giggles*

[1:22] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Like actually insane?

[1:22] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Yes, In need of being comitted to a mental institution"

[1:23] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Wow.

[1:24] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "She had it comming" *she smiles sweetly*

[1:26] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Really?

[1:26] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Mhm! She really did it to herself, With some of my help, of course!"

[1:28] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: How?

[1:29] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "She read documents she should not have read, snooping on things very private and I found it out, so instead of confornting her, I just made her see thr right things, both in the documents and in her>

[1:29] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: > every day"

[1:34] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon nods, leaning back in his chair.*

[1:35] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: That's...pretty crazy.

[1:35] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "The funny part is... She started going to far in to my private work documents because she was afraid of my retaliation for her little trick. so how could I deny her?" *she smiles*

[1:36] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "Of course... I do not sugest that is a good thing to do, In hindsight it was rather cruel, But... We both had fun at the memory"

[1:38] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon smiles, standing up from his chair.* I should probably retire for the evening.

[1:38] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: *Smiles sweetly* "Alright, Sorry if I made you uncomforteble"

[1:38] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: You did not.

[1:38] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Have a good evening.

[1:38] [DOIC1] Therese Xylvarenn@Illuice: "You too! Give Alice my best"

[1:39] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I will!
