[12:13][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:last time on Star Trek Adagio: The next Generation three of our brave ensigns were trapped in the space between gates. it was in this space they encountered the people that live there, the Xenovians
[12:15][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:They found a lost Trill named Ezri and her pet blob, The team was able to return home after they battled the dark entity called Zul'Zarath with the power of hope and love
[12:17][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:Now back on the Citadel and armed with new knowledge about the nature and operations of the black obelisks the team needs to figure out where the control pedestal got stashed and put the device bac
[12:17][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:together. So a little trip to Eirene's junk closet is about to happen
[12:22][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*Lili returned after getting her cookie and sticker from the medical bay.
[12:23][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Welcome back guys." --she points at Eirene-- "This is Eirene for those of you unfamiliar
[12:24][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She gave a small smile.* "Hello, Eirene.
[12:24][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] --waves at the group and then specifically to Lili-- "Hello Lili, love the uniform.
[12:24][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*nodding, having looked her up, but still a little wierded out by the appearance.
[12:25][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Hello, Eirene. I am Telek. New guy.
[12:25][DOIC2]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*somewhere else ont eh citadel Campbell was exploring
[12:25][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eitrene] "Hello Telek, new guy.
[12:25][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Why thank you, I'm still not sure about the color, but I suppose I'll get used to it.
[12:25][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Ahh Hello Eirene did you always have this holo body?
[12:26][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She raised a brow.* "Of course she has.
[12:26][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Did you want a blue uniform?" *He smirked at Lili.
[12:26][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "For as far back as I can remember.
[12:26][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She just smirked back at Telek but left the question unanswered.
[12:26][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"I served out of here on the Adagio for years, first time I see it
[12:27][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] --walks in-- "Good news guys I am not dead anymore.
[12:27][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She just folded her arms behind her back and remained silent, considering Carina was a superior officer.
[12:27][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "that is wonderful news Ezri.
[12:27][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I didn't think you were ever dead, just... nevermind.
[12:28][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:'Being not-dead and coming back makes for a much less exciting story than being dead and coming back.
[12:28][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Ezri, Ezri Tegan?" looks at Ezri curiously, only knowing her by reputatio
[12:28][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "i wasn't actually dead..but, Starfleet had me listed as dead.
[12:29][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Less messianic anyway.
[12:29][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "yes, Ezri Tegan. Lieutenant still.
[12:30][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "okay great, I have some news myself.
[12:30][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Welcome back then Lieutenant, I heard you are quite the brilliant scientist
[12:30][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*Telek slurped on the straw of the salted caramel latte he got on his way back from sickbay.
[12:30][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*Seemingly completely disinterested from the old people's home.
[12:30][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:looks at Maggie curiousl
[12:31][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "it seems we are missing one control thingiemabob for our gate system.
[12:31][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"...Control console.
[12:31][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He gave Lili a look at that.
[12:31][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Ma'am," *she added as an afterthought.
[12:32][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Dru is pulling up the power consumption data that was recorded during the activation and use of the portal both ways
[12:32][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Right control console...Anyway after consulting with Eirene we may have a lead on where it could be.
[12:32][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"We were about to raid the storage roosm for it
[12:32][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He grinned and nodded.
[12:32][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"What are the odds it's under a sheet and a box of Klingon Kaps?" *she muttered to Telek.
[12:33][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Much too high for my liking, honestly." *He replied quietly.
[12:33][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Right, there is a storage area on this level, Conner is out there looking for the entrance. But, Eirene says it is probably hard to find.
[12:34][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She maintained a stoic expression as she heard this.
[12:34][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"I wonder how many lifetimes it would take to find everything around here
[12:34][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "Stuff gets moved around, doors have a tendency to get closed off."
[12:34][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"About that, how do things get moved around on the station?
[12:34][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"One door closes, another opens
[12:34][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "it depends on how long a lifetime.
[12:35][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Well, we're still young, we got time.
[12:35][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"is it like, a teleportation/transporter type thing or people moving them around physically?
[12:35][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "anyway lets go see if we can find Conner. I hope we didn't lose him.
[12:36][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "A little of both really." --she says to Dru-
[12:36][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Unless he fell through another doorway," *She said dryly.* "No time to waste, then.
[12:36][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Yes... do we have any idea where he went off to?
[12:37][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Eirene can just transport us directly to him.
[12:37][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --heads out,-
[12:37][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He looked to Lili, then looked in the direction of Maggie.
[12:37][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --stops-- "Hey that is remarkably efficient. I like it.
[12:37][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"...Unless the leadership inexplicably decides we haven't gotten enough exercise for the day, I suppose.
[12:38][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She then nodded to Maggie.
[12:38][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:smirks looking at the Ensigns "Bright minds on these young officers
[12:38][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He had the look of a man who was getting slightly closer to deciding to retire to the life of a simple tailor.
[12:38][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] --smiles at Liliath-
[12:39][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He mumbled something to Lili.
[12:40][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She flashed a brief glance up at the Cardassian, then looked back at Maggie.
[12:40][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:Eirene takes a moment as if thinking and suddenly the group vanishes from the lab to some random corridor on the Citadel-
[12:41][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:Down the corridor they see Conner, examining a wall as if looking for the hidden passage
[12:41][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"We come in peace.
[12:42][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Conner, I brought help to find that door.
[12:42][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Thanks ma'am.
[12:42][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Its being a we bit stubborn.
[12:42][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He pulled out a tricorder.* "Should be decently easy if the door was powered and not an old hinge-type thing.
[12:43][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Does this station usually hide the doors to storage rooms?
[12:43][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "i am not sure i remember this section.
[12:43][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Still nto sure how it really worked the frist time.
[12:43][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Its more that the station literally makes the door.
[12:43][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"You get used to it." *She started walking already, peering down the corridor.
[12:43][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"You ran the power lines through a tricorder yet?" *He gave it a scan.
[12:43][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"We have to figure out where the variabel geometry conenction is. then spark the reconfiguration.
[12:43][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:*Totally has been here the entire time
[12:43][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I think it builds those first.
[12:44][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"So they are dormant until needed
[12:44][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"In that case, what are we looking for, a gap, a fissure, a seam or just a weakened point in the structure of a wall?
[12:44][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"To be honest this level of tech is more magic than science for us. Maybe we do a seance and ask the ghost of the designer.
[12:44][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Hmmph." *He started walking after Lili, but he ran his hand along the wall to try and find any unusual bumps.
[12:44][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I think what we are looking for is the remnance of a metametal anchor.
[12:44][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] --looks around-- "its a combination of dimnsional engineering and the station being constructed out of reconfiguarable materials.
[12:45][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:watches the young officers get to work, a smile on her fac
[12:45][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*Lili considered this.* "Eirene, if we describe the item that we're looking for, do you think that might help you focus on which room it's in?
[12:45][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "i see the room, just trying to sense where the door needs to be.
[12:46][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I hate to be that guy... but did you not mark it on a map or something?
[12:46][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He kept running his hand over the walls at different heights.
[12:46][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:A moment later a nearby wall morphs into a doorway
[12:46][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Dru gets out her tricorder to scan the wall as she goes looking for anomolies that might fit the description
[12:46][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Do you need us to set a point of focus, or is it a set location--- oh.
[12:46][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"There we go.
[12:46][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"or that
[12:46][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "There we go.
[12:47][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Thank you, Eirene." *She went to check the doorway.
[12:47][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "this place never gets old.
[12:47][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He went after Lili.
[12:47][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"I very much Agree Peebles
[12:47][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I don't know. No offence to Eirene but I kind of prefer to know where the doors are at the place I'm staying.
[12:47][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Or that...
[12:47][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --enters the room with the other.-
[12:48][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Interesting... I was over that spot mayeb 10 times and saw nothing to suggest that it woudl be a doorway.
[12:48][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:Inside the group discovers a huge warehouse looking place.-
[12:49][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Do we get to keep what we find?
[12:49][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"...I think this might take us a while.
[12:50][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Well if it doesn't belong ina museu
[12:50][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*cambell looked around the room
[12:50][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He took out his tricorder and started scanning for any empty spots like the ones the obelisk material created.
[12:50][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Or melt our faces off for staring into the eye sof god..
[12:50][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Dru begins cataloging
[12:50][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "that is a lot of crates..i hope some kept records.
[12:50][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*cambell starts running his tricorder
[12:51][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I'll try to look at the materials, try see if I can't find any empty spots like what the obelisk material made.
[12:51][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Eye of god, really?
[12:51][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"It's an old earth movie.
[12:51][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Ended with the eye-melting artifact being locked up in a room like this.
[12:51][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Eirene can probably begin scanning the contents as well, now that she's aware of the room again.
[12:51][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I doubt the arc of the covenent is here.
[12:51][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Don't be so sure.
[12:52][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Would be funny if it was
[12:52][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"My Da told me of stranger thing sin this galaxy.
[12:52][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"At this point it would take alot to suprise me out here
[12:52][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:As the group stands there debating what to do a short silver person walks out from among the shelves carrying a crate, he stops and looks at the group.-
[12:52][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"We have different definitions of funny.
[12:52][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"i was in this galaxy for all of ten minutes and got lost inside a portal pocket dim-
[12:52][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"...Hello?
[12:52][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"All sorts of machine spirits masquerading as gods.
[12:52][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She looked at the silver person.
[12:52][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:-the liitle guy stops and stares at the grou
[12:52][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Alrgiht....
[12:53][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*scans him
[12:53][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Scannnnnn
[12:53][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"For your sake, I hope you are not a thief.
[12:53][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Is this part of the mechanism for moving things about perhaps?
[12:53][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He looked at the others and shook his head.* "I am Telek. And you?
[12:54][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Silver guy] "I am TK421. I am one of the custodians.
[12:54][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Little short for a stormtrooper.
[12:54][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] --looks confused.-
[12:54][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Pleasure to meet you, TK. Ah... could you maybe help us find an item we are looking for?
[12:54][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Why Eirene, you never told me you had custodians.
[12:54][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Aren't you a little short for a s... damn
[12:54][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"hmmm" looks at the TK421 curiousl
[12:54][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "i don't remember having custodians.
[12:55][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"I believe our new acquaintance TK421 has some explaining to do, then.
[12:55][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Registering the scan* "Perhaps Eirene, you could set to scan for more of them.
[12:55][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"The readings are almost positronic.
[12:56][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"But i suppose that makes sense, something would need to maintain the citadel.
[12:56][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Almost?
[12:56][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] --looks at Eirene-- "Madam Eirene, your avatar has changed.
[12:56][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Tricorder recognizes Soong type as closes anologue can't read much more.
[12:57][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Now that is curious
[12:57][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I guess that makes sense.
[12:57][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "You remember me?
[12:57][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Truth is it didn't know what it was looking at to begin with i told it to guess.
[12:58][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "Of course. How may I help you?
[12:58][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He smiled at TK.* "We are looking for a control unit for portal obelisks. About this big..." *He showed with his hands, using the one Ezri had used as reference.
[12:58][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Paying attentiong, she turns backt o scanning the stacks to catalog
[12:59][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Made out of a completely black material, save for the control glyphs.
[12:59][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "Do you have a catalog number?
[12:59][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*chuckles* Beauracrcy finds a way..
[12:59][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"No. You... ah... have to understand this room has probably gone without being accessed for about two million years or so.
[1:00][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"You are not wrong
[1:00][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Many files have been lost.
[1:00][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*cambell starts scannign crates
[1:00][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"There is something... TK421, the catalog has been lost, can you update Eirene to the catalog back up you hold?
[1:00][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --hands the little droid a PADD-- "This is a picture of an identical device.
[1:01][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "it has a been some time since this unit last interfaced with Eirene.
[1:02][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] --looks at the image and after several moment-- "yes, one transmat gate control pedastal, section 12, row 42, I can take you there.
[1:04][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Do you know where they came from.. the gate obelisks?
[1:04][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"You're a pretty cool guy, TK.
[1:04][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "yes.
[1:04][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Care to share?
[1:06][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "of course. The device was brought to the station by an Avynei survey team.
[1:06][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"...And when was this? Where did they bring it from?
[1:06][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:smiles as she observes, finding it all very interesting
[1:07][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "that would have been time index 1124367983.43566.
[1:07][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"...Oh, yes, who could forget that?
[1:07][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Ah... do you think you could give us today's time index?
[1:09][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Something tells me our time index won't work.
[1:09][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"it would have been aproximately 3 million cycles ago. I don't seem to have access to the report. Perhaps Eirene has that informaitonj.
[1:09][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Prevailign theory is Artesia selected on that was tied to our times not her own.
[1:10][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"really just reinforces how relative time keeping really is.
[1:10][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] --heads off into the stacks.-
[1:10][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I mean we can't actually stardate anything prior to 2313 in the old stardate system either.
[1:10][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"We just met an officer who's been lost for a couple of decades while for her it had been eight hours. So yeah.
[1:10][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He followed TK.
[1:10][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She also followed.
[1:10][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Have to go to a different one for that.
[1:11][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:As they head to the right place, they pass by a few more of the little silver guys. They are doing various chores.-
[1:12][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Make syou wonder just how many of these backrooms exist on this place.
[1:12][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*SCANNN, catalog for Starfleet records
[1:13][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:Afte walking a ways they enter a particular row, 42, and Tk proceeds to walk about half way down and stops
[1:13][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"TK421, how many custodians are you aware of on board?
[1:13][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Infinite, if the childrens' tales are to be believed. And they always involve some sort of ironically horrific purgatory.
[1:14][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "the number varies with work load. Currenyly there are 12 active custodians.
[1:14][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He stopped after TK.* "Did you kids ever find anything like this?
[1:14][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Not quite.
[1:14][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I know if I was a kid here I'd be exploring to find an alien boomstick or something.
[1:15][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Oh, we found plenty of alien implements to hit each other with, as children are wont to do.
[1:15][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"That sounds like a pretty good way to grow up.
[1:17][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"We just used actual sticks.
[1:17][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:TK waves a metallic hand over a console embedded in one of the support beams. a beam of energy shoots down from the ceiling somewhere and lifts a crate from the top shelf to the ground
[1:17][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Recreating the battle of stirling bridge with all the local kids.
[1:18][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"That or jousting.. Got it a bit of trouble for Jousting.
[1:18][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "gateway control pedastal, catalog number OCP-356-67589A.
[1:18][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Jousting from actual horse back?
[1:18][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She chuckled at that, then watched the crate being moved.
[1:18][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Aye.
[1:18][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Now that sounds like a good time to me
[1:18][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Thank you, TK421.
[1:18][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Was until Lachland broke his collar bone and we had to explain that to the parents.
[1:19][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Making note of that catalog number
[1:19][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "You are welcome. Will there be anything else?
[1:19][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"So this pedastal conencts tot he two obelisk and lets us what? Set an address?
[1:19][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Do you have the instruction manual stored around here?
[1:20][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "The catalog here is enormous, lots of stuff.
[1:20][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He nods to campbell.
[1:20][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"TK421, was able to upload that catalog to you Eirene?
[1:20][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Lieutenant Tegan knows how to use it.
[1:20][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "i am afraid not, No manual was brought in with the device.
[1:21][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Waht about study logs?
[1:21][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "apparently, Ezri has some familiarity with its operation.
[1:22][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "No study logs. I don't see any record of the device being checked out at any time for study.
[1:22][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"So it was just brought in and stored, curious
[1:22][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "Although records indicate there should be two black obelisjks with the device that seem to be missing.
[1:23][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"We actually have those.
[1:23][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] "oh well i will make record of that.
[1:24][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "How do we move this crate?
[1:24][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I can go get a repulsor sled?
[1:24][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Eirene? Can you transport from here?
[1:24][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"We can just get beamed to the lab.
[1:24][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[TK421] --presses a button on the crate and it starts to float a few inches above the deck.-
[1:24][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Or that...
[1:25][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*he moves to push the sled
[1:25][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Convinient
[1:25][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "i can beam it to the lab.
[1:25][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I'd rather us not dematerialzie the alien device.
[1:25][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Until we know how that might effect it ma'am/
[1:25][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I have to agree
[1:26][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"I agreed, we will not use transporter on the device at this point if it can be avoided
[1:26][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "yeah, lets be careful with it. We can take it to the lab the old fashioned away.
[1:26][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*conor pushes the cart
[1:26][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Something tells me the XenoArch folks are going to have a field day in here
[1:26][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:the crate glides effortlessly-
[1:27][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"After they recover from their nose bleeds
[1:27][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"it's something built by an incredibly advanced... you know what, I'm not going to argue.
[1:27][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "lets just get it to the lab so we can mess around with forces beyond our comprehension.
[1:28][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Because nothing has ever gone wrong with that course.
[1:28][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Probably a good idea to have Lieutenant Tegan there, she knows how to use it.
[1:28][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --shrugs-- "what could go wrong?
[1:28][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"You really asking that Peebs?
[1:29][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:--the group turns and heads back toward the lab-
[1:29][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"The whole point of Starfleet is exploration and braving the unknown. Hell yes, we're messing with forces beyond our comprehension.
[1:29][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"If we didn't, we'd still be stuck in our home galaxy.
[1:29][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"If I understood correctly, Lt Tegan was messing around with this technology when the world she was on was destroyed, and was MIA in the network till we found her.
[1:29][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She smirked slightly.
[1:29][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Don't worry. We will be careful.
[1:29][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Now that is Starfleet attitude" grins at Tele
[1:30][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Why, thank you.
[1:30][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Boldy going, not an issue. Boldly go... I'm right behind you.
[1:31][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*campbell moves the crate itnot eh lab then looks for a release
[1:31][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "oh did you find it?
[1:31][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Mayeb this button?
[1:31][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*he pushed soemthign on the crate
[1:31][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Along with a warehouse full of other stuff and lil guys taking care of it.
[1:32][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:--the crate opens up and reveals a black control pedaseal.-
[1:33][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "A warehhouse full of stuff...sounds like a fun place to explore.
[1:33][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"One thing at a time, Ma'am... do you know how we plug this thing in?
[1:34][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:Ezri activates a tractor beam that lock onto the pedstal and begins lifting it into postion
[1:34][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "i tihnk it plugs itself in...if we get them close enough together..
[1:35][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*conor tested to see how heavy ti was
[1:36][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Alright moving it is a bit diffucult.
[1:36][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Gonna need a few hands.
[1:37][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Dru goes to help
[1:37][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"...Can't the tractor beam do it?
[1:37][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*Lili glanced at her nails.
[1:37][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "We can use the tractor beam.
[1:37][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Here and i thought you wanted to be hands on.
[1:37][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Alright we do it that way.
[1:38][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"There's a difference between being hands-on and beign inefficient for the sake of being inefficient.
[1:38][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] --activates the tractor beam and locks onto the pedestal.-
[1:40][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Alright... so, what do we actually... do with it now?" *He looked at Ezri.
[1:41][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:with unlimited Citadel power the tractor beam effortlessly lifts the pedestal into place. As the beam is shut off the pedestal lights up. The outer circumference is a series of touch pads, close
[1:41][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Standing ready to assist in connecting things
[1:42][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:closer to the ceter is a display with some strange symbols lit up. The symbols are familiar they are similar to the ones on doors in the corridor in the backrooms
[1:42][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I definitely recognize those runes.
[1:43][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:Some strange tendrils grow from the base of the pedestand and reach out to the obelisks. The tendrils grow into the base of the obelisks
[1:43][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Different combinations of them were on doors in the portal network. So yeah, this is the address input, I think...
[1:43][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"...Oh. I don't think that is supposed to happen.
[1:44][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "oh its fine, its just reconnecting.
[1:45][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Nice... no need to fit cables when it grows it's own.
[1:45][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Tendrils are always a good sign.. yes...
[1:46][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*he said not entirely convice
[1:46][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Why do they always have to be... tendrilesque?" *She muttered, mostly to herself.
[1:46][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "The neo-Salation people were stuying one like it, Well they were having Edward try to reverse engineei it.
[1:46][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:**Salvatio
[1:46][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Who?
[1:47][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "its a long story...doesn't really matter they were on Dragua when it exploded.
[1:48][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"...Very helpful, thank you.
[1:48][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Alright... Do you actually know any addresses for this?
[1:48][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "I don't know any specific addresses other than the one we found.
[1:49][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Did anyone ask if anything else was brought in? with these devices?
[1:49][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "but the coontrols are less of press button to launch and more of a become one with the controls sort of thing.
[1:49][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"...Become one with the controls? Telepathically?
[1:50][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Machine spirits...
[1:50][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] --shruggs-- "i think its more of a super advanced biometric sort of interface.
[1:50][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"I think I'm going to let someone else try that one. Perhaps one of our touch telepaths." *She eyed the pointy-ears.
[1:50][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Praise the omnisire
[1:50][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"So someone touches the device?
[1:51][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "right, you touch those control pads.
[1:51][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Hell, if nobody wants to try it, I'm in.
[1:51][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:Ezri goes and places her hands on a couple of ocntrol pads.-
[1:51][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Are you sure thats wise?
[1:51][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He seems slightly pouty Ezri got to play with the cool ancient alien toy instead.
[1:51][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Ma'am?
[1:52][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She shrugged.
[1:52][DOIC]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "it hasn't hurt me yet.
[1:52][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "it hasn't hurt me yet.
[1:53][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "it takes a bit of concentration. I am pretty sure this thing was not meant for Trills.
[1:54][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"I mean, what are the odds she comes back from the dead and then immediately dies?" *She muttered to the others.
[1:54][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "But, the controls are pretty intuitive.
[1:54][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Hey, some people are just born lucky.
[1:55][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Does it allow you to sense destinations? Like pulling up a database?
[1:55][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "yes, you can get a sense of available destination.
[1:55][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"That's pretty cool.
[1:56][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"How are they notated?" *she opens her padd to take notes
[1:56][DOIC]Campbell@Captain_Rien:* a booming voice filled the lab
[1:57][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara Lester] Ezri Tegan step away from the device
[1:57][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --looks up at the voice.-- "What now?
[1:57][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"...Oh, come on.
[1:57][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] --lets go of the controls and steps back.-
[1:57][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She blinked.
[1:57][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Who are you?
[1:58][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*the woman in a black Uniform stood in the doorway, Dark hair vidid she looked to be in her mid 40s. Her rank was that of a deputy Director
[1:58][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Deputy Director Inara Lester. Special Projects and Containnment
[1:58][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*looking for the individual and rank, Dru looks curious* "Is there some problem ma'm?
[1:59][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Don't tell me, Starfleet intelligence is taking our toy away?
[1:59][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*she had the black eyes of a betazoid
[1:59][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"I was just following orders," *she said automatically.
[1:59][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I was just following orders... and I -loved- it.
[1:59][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] On the Contrary they are not Who do you think is backing this Special Training directive.
[2:00][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "i know you.
[2:00][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Director" *nods her head at Inara
[2:00][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Of course you do Ezri its good to see you aren't dead
[2:00][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"You know... -Ma'am-. Considering we were lost in there and nobody gave a fuck, it's a bit hypocritical of you to get involved now.
[2:01][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Silence
[2:01][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Telek you pillock... *he muttered to himself
[2:01][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He seemed to want to say more, but he -glared- at the betazoid.
[2:02][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*Lili knew better than to do anything but stand there and shut up.
[2:02][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] You assume no one cared. You also assume that life as you know it Ensigns... will remain the same
[2:02][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "So ma'am, if i may ask what are you here for?
[2:02][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Ma'am?" *looking at the commander for direction.
[2:02][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Recruitment
[2:02][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:looks around at the ensigns, then looks at Inar
[2:04][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Each of you were assigned to this special training division because of your aptitudes. Carefully selected. and some of you simply because Admiral Arnimane suggested it. *She looked at Carina
[2:04][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --looks at Carina.-
[2:04][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:and peebles
[2:04][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*inara waved her hands and the door shut and locked down
[2:04][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He tensed up as the door shut.
[2:04][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "Would it be okay if I left?
[2:04][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She raised a brow.
[2:04][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] These devices are now classified. But your involvement in this is just beginning
[2:05][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He gave Ezri a -look-.
[2:05][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] No ezri you don't get to leave.
[2:05][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] --sighs-
[2:05][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:nods her head, fully understandin
[2:06][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] I am going to need your help. You were gone a long time. Lots to talk about. But as for the rest of you. Your debreifings will begin, but I hope you like the idea of seeing where thi
[2:06][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:Technology will lead us
[2:06][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*she walked over to the device control and touched it letting her eyes glow when she did
[2:07][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Well we already found one location.
[2:07][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] I know. Unfortuantley most of these locations are cut off from us
[2:07][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Classified..." *letting that hang
[2:08][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Blocked off at the other end?
[2:08][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Oh you may speak cardassian
[2:08][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Possibly
[2:08][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Well. Seeing as we'll be working on that... how much do you know by now? We already know of one friendly alien species on the other side we have access to.
[2:09][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"As well as a... dark being of some sort.
[2:09][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] That will be for us to find out. Eirene. We will transfer everything in this lab to section... 28
[2:10][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Reactivate the Stardust labs
[2:10][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Section 28, sounds almost ominously vague.
[2:10][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "Section 28 huh? I can reavtivate those, it will take a few minutes.
[2:11][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] There is a device there that will let me keep watch over you as you explore this new frontier
[2:11][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[inara] *she stepped back wiping a small bit of blood from her eyes
[2:11][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I got a feeling a -lot- of things will get ominously vague, considering we were just recruited by someone dressed in all black.
[2:11][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Well they don't let me wear pink
[2:11][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Shame, it'd fit you well.
[2:12][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] I do quite like it. *she studied Adama a moment
[2:12][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:*Adama eyed Inara back
[2:12][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] You favor him. And your have your mothers hair
[2:13][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Ma'am, I have to ask, what does this mean for us precisly, for our careers?
[2:13][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "This changes my whole training program...
[2:13][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Congratulations Ensigns
[2:13][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:.....What
[2:13][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:Peebs, this throws that out the window
[2:13][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Oh maggie did you think this wasn't actually what she was preparing you for
[2:13][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "You get fast tracked but lots of parts of your record will be redacted.
[2:14][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] *winked* Anyway your careers will show you are assigned to the ADvanced Training program tarbase 220. If you don't die once this project i done you'll have yoru pick of where you want to go
[2:14][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Dubious look on her face
[2:14][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Well nothing so far has prepared me for any of this.
[2:15][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"You are more then ready for this, believe in yourself
[2:15][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I never thought I would say this in my life, but this doesn't sound logical.
[2:15][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "yeah, yeah. I got this.
[2:15][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"We got recruited into a secret project dealing with an ancient alien portal network. It may not be logical, but it sure is the best thing to happen to me.
[2:15][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Yeah you do
[2:16][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] I'm lookign primarily at our expedition team here. Except for I believe the Callihan boy
[2:16][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Why ensigns, why not experienced officers or specialists?
[2:16][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:smiles and puts a hand on Peebs shoulder before looking at Inar
[2:16][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"We're expendable.
[2:16][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Callihan? Fuck me... *he said softly
[2:16][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Wax on and Wax off Maggie
[2:16][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Shocked look of realization as she looks back to Telek
[2:17][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He grins at Dru.
[2:17][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --looks at the group-- "noting has really changed regarding your jobs here. I guess we just met the boss is all.
[2:17][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] My dear Telek we are all expendable in the eyes of the universe
[2:17][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Techncially Xaelei is still the boss
[2:18][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] You will maintain your quartering on starbase 220. You will still overtly go through training scenarios there
[2:18][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Guess my job remains, watch over this bright young officers
[2:18][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:these
[2:18][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] But you maintain quartering here on section 28 level 3 as well
[2:19][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] The Runabout Styx will ferry you between the stations when needed
[2:19][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"How would travel through the gate happen covertly? Or will we have official reasons for being here?
[2:19][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] The Styx has a special pass
[2:19][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "I have those quarters ready. Very comfortable one too.
[2:19][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He nodded.
[2:19][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Excellent
[2:20][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"The Styx" *she says, vacantly
[2:20][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Well Runabouts are named after rivers after all
[2:20][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"This is some obsidian order-level thing... I love it.
[2:21][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Please... Telek do not insult us by invoking those failures
[2:21][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"It... I don't know how to feel about it. It sounds like an adventure to be certain, but... just so very unexpected.
[2:22][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"You won't get any more experienced by standing around and doing training exercises.
[2:22][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] I could alwasy wipe your memory and transfer you to a Reliant class doing a simple patrol route in the Ferengi sector Ms Draganov if you do not wish to do this?
[2:23][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "its not a bad gig if you can get it. The fringe benefits are great. But, you usually end up with people trying to kill you all the time.
[2:23][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She gave a simple shrug.* "I was under no illusions that I'd have a typical Starfleet career. My only request is for quarters with a view.
[2:23][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I," *she squares her shoulders* "I go where I am needed by the service. No matter if that is something unknown or tedious.
[2:23][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Eirene] "Done Lilli.
[2:23][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Thank you, Eirene.
[2:24][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He grinned at Lili.* "Really? You expected to be recruited into something like this? I'd see being assigned to an Oberth on the ass end of nowhere as more likely.
[2:25][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"I never said 'something like this.' Just that it would not have been typical.
[2:25][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] There is a holowindow Lili
[2:25][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:could not help but grin, remembering her first asignment was nothing to specia
[2:26][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "None of you were ever destined for an ordinary career anyway.
[2:26][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Ezri... please come wioth me we have to make sure you didn't bring back any other versions of you
[2:27][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] The rest of you... Maggie I might suggest a drink
[2:27][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "I am pretty sure i came back alone.
[2:27][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"I could use a romulan ale
[2:27][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Right, lets go get a drink.
[2:27][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She raised a brow.
[2:28][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*wrinkles her nose* "romulan ale, really?
[2:28][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"I am Romulan
[2:28][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Come on guys Carina is buying.
[2:28][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Unforutnatley I don't think a real romulan ale exist anymore. Carina
[2:28][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"If we're going to be stereotypical, I'll have Kanar.
[2:28][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"One bottle Ma'am. at least
[2:28][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] A true one could only be brewed outside Mnaeha City
[2:29][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"The frowny quiet guy over there got me hooked on irish whiskey, though.
[2:29][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Anything else is just... imitation
[2:29][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"It is in my adoptive familly's keeping on earth
[2:29][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Its older then me
[2:29][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*inara turned to leave with ezri in tow unlocking the room
[2:29][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Vodka, definitely vodka, or maybe something scotch." *she glances up to her left, then quickly back down.* "Vodka.
[2:29][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Well, if its blue you are not supssed to drink it anyway...
[2:30][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Whats wrong with whisky
[2:30][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Nothing.

[2:30][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Alright, Ensign Draganov decides my drink tonight, from the bar
[2:30][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"nothing... nothing at all." *she turns and walks out

[2:33][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Neat, too. No fancy stuff.
[2:33][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --elbows Carina-- "What a week huh?
[2:34][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:looks at Maggie nodding "Yeah, one hell of a week

[2:34][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Glancing about to the others at the bar* "Does this mean we will have to change our uniforms?
[2:35][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"So, this Ezri character.. who is she? I think I vaguely remember the name.
[2:35][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --looks around at the ensign-- "You guys handle yourselves pretty well for newbies. I can see they recruited pretty well for this progrem.:
[2:35][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Thanks, Ma'am. To be honest, we mostly just winged it, especially when the three of us got separated.
[2:35][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Sorry i missed it.
[2:35][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"But i was working on bringing you back.
[2:35][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "Ezri, according to her file...which is heavily redacted was a science officer on the USS Protector.
[2:36][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"We got to slay a dragon with the power of love and friendship. It doesn't happen every day.
[2:36][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Special training on 220... I thought I'd be working gamma shift on the Adagio. I'm still spinning, but at least I got to fly through the gate.
[2:36][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Ezri is a scientist from back a long time ago, twenty eight or so years ago I heard rumors of her leading a monkey revolt on Risa, or was she fighting them? I don't remembe
[2:36][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"USS Protector. That ship's damn near legendary.
[2:36][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "That is what i am talking about, you were able to wing it and survive to get home.
[2:37][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*Lili quietly sipped on a Beryxian whiskey.
[2:37][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Considering the monkeys are back to gettign peanuts from tourists, I'd say her revolt failed. And thanks." *He nodded at Peebs and raised his cup of whiskey.* "To surviving, and hopefully surviving
[2:37][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"the Adagio is Moothballs
[2:37][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "i heard those stories about feather monkey revolts on Risa,,,i thought it was urban legend.
[2:37][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"the next few times too.
[2:37][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Dru is looking for burn, no flavor
[2:37][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"So Draganov, what are we drinking?
[2:38][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Pure spirits for me... ultra purified vodka is best. Cleans the injectors well.
[2:38][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:*to the holo-bartender* Bursali ale please

[2:40][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*Conor sippe dthe islay
[2:41][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"...I guess it makes sense for me to be here now. I was wondering what I was doing with you all, considering I specced medicine.
[2:41][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"I will have to say you ensigns are going above my expectations, keep it up" she raises her glass "Here is to you all
[2:41][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*he toasted the commander
[2:41][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She lifted her drink.
[2:42][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He toasted back and took a gulp.
[2:42][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:*Adama looked in thought a moment till he remembered something* I specced in security Telek. We always need you to drug me and stitch. *he lifts his glass
[2:42][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:downs her drink after her toas
[2:43][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He grinned at Adama.* "I am not letting you die as logn as you keep bringing me those bottles your father taught me to drink.
[2:43][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"After that... no promises.

[2:43][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Commander, we are not going to have to dress all in black are we?

[2:43][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I donnae thing we will.
[2:43][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Nope, you will keep your current uniforms and sadly I will as well
[2:44][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I like the current uniforms. Much better than what I had to wear on my cadet cruise.
[2:44][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "I am not sure how i would feel about dressing in all black. I like a splash of color.
[2:44][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"She's a part of a Civilian Organization.
[2:44][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"I like the regular uniform, not this formal thing
[2:44][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Black washes me out, makes me look like I'm a ghost playing dress up.
[2:44][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"ostensibly.
[2:45][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "But, seriously we will be keeping our current uniforms.
[2:45][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "But you can dress in all black on your own time if you want to.
[2:46][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:He's keeping busy, still have a sister in the academy for him to watch over. *now ttalks softly to Telek* Was she bleeding after she did her witchcraft
[2:46][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"my workout clothes are all black, I do well in black, but I don't want all black uniform

[2:46][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*Still quiet.* "Tears of blood. Kinda high school goth, but kinda cool.

[2:47][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Like the stories my parents told m
[2:47][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Yeah, she mentioned 'em.
[2:49][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"You know your father once helped me get over some social isues" she looks at Adam
[2:49][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He spoke normally again.* "I guess this means we're leaving The Citadel soon enough. Any good LMC souvenir ideas for me to get for the family?
[2:49][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:You know...during the war or shortly before it she liquified an entire ships crew...just as a warning
[2:49][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:What? *he looks over to Carina* Ma'am
[2:50][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He blinked at Adama's words, shaking his head some.* "...Fuck.
[2:50][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Another bartender, water back.
[2:50][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"Yeah, its true, I had some...Confidence problems

[2:51][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Please stop saying that, I don't want to have to order two more.
[2:51][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Huh.. small world then... *he nodded to Campbell* Fucking a..I know
[2:51][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*she shakes her head* "My coach was a cruel task master, but all he could do is yell and restrict my diet... not melt my brain.
[2:52][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "liquified? What the fff...
[2:52][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She drank, quietly listening to the chatter around her.
[2:52][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"She did silence me. Literally.
[2:52][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:downs another drin
[2:52][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"From the moment she said "Silence" to the moment she told me to speak, I literally physically could not. Some kinda black magic LMC shit.
[2:52][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --downs some more whiskey-
[2:53][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "LMC, got to love this place.
[2:53][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I might need to... change armies." *he muttered to himself
[2:53][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Drinking her water by mistake, she sets it down and downs the vodka* "Now I know why my mother drank so much.
[2:54][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:"the LMC is Crazy
[2:54][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:My father drinks so much because he's irish, my mother because she can outlast him
[2:55][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"My parents were Delta.
[2:55][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I think i alcohol tolerance was a genetic inheretance.
[2:55][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"My father was an architect and my mother was police.
[2:55][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "yeah...i met your parents...
[2:55][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I think I'm the only one here who's got literally no LMC history.
[2:56][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She twitched a smirk and finished her drink.* "My parents probably took shots at your parents," *she said simply and ordered another one.
[2:56][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Aye ma talked about Yeoman Peebles a few times Ma'am.
[2:56][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He chuckled at Lili's words.
[2:56][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*campbell may be underselling how often maggies name came up when she was ribbing Kaiden about soemthing even 20 years later
[2:56][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "oh yeah...did she mention my call sign was razor?
[2:56][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*finished her liquor, she takes the water and a chair not far away.
[2:57][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Razor? ...You know, callsigns tend to be ironic, from what I've been told.
[2:57][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Campbell] Funny enough no... that never came up, Why was it razor
[2:58][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "i have no idea really. it sounded cool. I got it on a super secret time travel mission. We were working with Captain Elizebeth Razzor...she gave it to me..
[2:58][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:*He drank* Wouldn't be surprisedif they did...then again my dad decapitated people like nothing and my mother was keeping tally... Your people were rioght for shooting at them
[2:58][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Aunt Liz gave you that name
[2:59][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --nods-- "yup.
[2:59][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She huffed a laugh.* "For all the good it ultimately did them.
[3:00][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "The Federation has a long proud tradition of making friends with people who tried to kill us at one time.
[3:01][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I mean, I'm standing right here, ain't I?
[3:01][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Its ultimate victory... don't have to fight the war again.
[3:01][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Who was your father that he decapitated people?
[3:03][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "that's mostly right...although Klingons really resisted the whole friendship thing...or maybe it took them a bit to understand it.
[3:03][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"His father's alright. Tends to embellish war stories like every old soldier does, I bet.
[3:03][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:*Adama spun around to face Dru and leant against the bar* At the time commander Alex Sharpe , he did so during boarding
[3:03][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Considering two of the Pilgrim & Friends leads were klingons, they came around eventually.
[3:04][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*cambell sorta headed off to the side and started trying to get something working
[3:04][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Klingons] "yeah they came around.
[3:04][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Can't beleive this is still here...
[3:04][DOIC1]Carina Winther@awendr:downs one last drink "alright, gonna go so you young people cut, just please make sure I don't have to get any of you from the brigg tomorrow

[3:05][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "aye ma'am. Have a nice evening.
[3:05][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Good night, Commander.

[3:06][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*he jammed a little to the music as it started

[3:06][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "i am surprised it isn't in some Dawn Breaker war museum.
[3:07][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*he started to sing
[3:07][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I didn't notice it there when I was here earlier looking for something to drink after the medical check up. Maybe Eirene put it back.
[3:08][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*conor was hammignit up a bit singing near the others
[3:09][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*Telek chuckled at Campbell singing cliché old rock, clapping some for him before taking another gulp.
[3:09][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:{Maggie] --moves out into the open and starts dancing to the music.-
[3:09][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:*Took a sip of his drink

[3:10][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I hope we get started with our... special training sooner. I am not sure how I'll sleep after a day like this.
[3:10][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*looked up at them, sorta smiled, and looked back at her water. Internal struggles playing over her face.
[3:10][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*conor danced a little near maggie as he sang the end of the song
[3:11][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He clapped at the pair, then looked over at Dru.* "Don't break away from the group, now.
[3:11][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Consider it team-building.
[3:11][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Speaking of that whose next?
[3:11][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] "i can't remember the number of parties we had around this old machine.

[3:13][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Fuck it, let me take this." *He went to Campbell.
[3:13][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*conro hande dhim the mic
[3:14][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He scrolled around the earth music section for a while, then found what he was looking for, starting a poppy beat.
[3:14][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bHhpufKRj
[3:14][DOIC2]Carina Winther@awendr:sighs as the mention of that last bottle of romulan, the last one she had drunk was 30 years ago, aboard the Adagio with her captain, a smile spreads on her face at the memorie
[3:15][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*The cardassian started singing and dancing... he was hamming it up, but he turned out to have a surprisingly pleasant voice, and even put some dance into it, his flexible reptile body helping with
[3:15][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*The gaga-like moves.
[3:16][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie] --claps, shocked that Cardassians can sing and dance-

[3:18][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He grinned and set the mic down in its spot.* "And that is how we do it in the FCC.

[3:18][DOIC4]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:[Pleiades] "Understood. Will arrive shortly.

[3:20][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[iNara] Is your tea good Ezri
[3:21][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He then turned to Dru.* "You need to lighten up. I am not saying it as a critique, more as a worry.
[3:21][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Maggie ] --picked up the mic-- "This is how we do things back home.
[3:21][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I know it's a lot to take in, but... life's about taking its punches as they come, and punchign back.

[3:23][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Thats good well we can confirm you are atleast the right version of you. No
[3:23][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:You know they are actually the same....
[3:23][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Need that mind intact besides another mind wipe might cause damage
[3:23][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Same goes for p[ilots like my father always said
[3:24][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Probably listen to him, he actually -can- fight.
[3:24][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "that is what i keep telling them. Too many mind wipes can't be healthy.
[3:24][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] So what exactly happened
[3:24][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Mhmm... that's how I got into low g gymnastics, and flying. I'm actually good at that part of it. I don't get hit, or crash.
[3:24][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] The Last report was you had tracked the rest of edwards splinter group to their planet.
[3:25][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She idly watched the karaoke as she worked on her drink.
[3:26][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "oh yeah, that. it was a trap. Edward wanted me to bring him Dacia so he could use their special connection to hack Eirene.
[3:26][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*whispered to Adama* "I'm sorry, the way you talked about your father I half expected you to say admiral. I really don't know who he was.
[3:26][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Well fill in the gaps because all we really know is that that planet ceased to be
[3:26][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He grinned at the whisper.* "Oh, there we go, the vulcanoids are -already- flirting.
[3:27][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*conor drank his whiskey
[3:27][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He clapped for Peebs as she was singing.
[3:27][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:*adama drank some* That's the first part covered, next part is knowing when to wooow. *Adama winked at Dru and whispered back* Probably would have been if he didn't love fighters so much
[3:27][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*clapped for peebles
[3:27][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Whats Tanausan music like Ms Var
[3:27][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:You're just jealous of our ears, just like we are jealous of your spooniness
[3:28][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "Well they had this nifty geothermal tap that extracted power from the moon's molten core. I managed to overload it.
[3:28][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Don't forget the scales. Mine still have that youthful shine." *He winked.
[3:28][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Not so much flirting, I didn't think. Just... nevermind.
[3:28][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*inara listened
[3:29][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Ever heard of Wolfman
[3:29][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I'm just breaking your balls." *He smiled at Dru.* "Listen, it's gonna be an adjustment, but you're not facing it alone. Plus... you will be part of something truly special.
[3:29][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*shocked at the spooniness comment
[3:29][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She glanced back at Campbell.* "We've plenty of variations. Some similar to what you might be used to, others a bit more exotic to your ear. Perhaps I'll demonstrate when I have my sihur on hand.
[3:30][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"That will be fun. Until then karoake machine si open.
[3:30][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I appreciate the sentiment. I know none of us are alone.
[3:31][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Part of starfleet is being there for each other. I am, trust me. You can count on me. I'm just in shock.
[3:31][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "its sort of a shame really, they were collecting quite a bit of cool technology. althought since they were bad guys i dont imagine they were going to use it for the greater good.
[3:31][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She smirked.* "So it is. For better or for worse.
[3:31][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] No it was the right call
[3:32][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"It's not too late to opt out if you truly feel you can't stomach it, she gave you the option. But fortune favors the brave, or so they say.
[3:32][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Besides... think of the opportunities. She said once this is done you'll have your picking of assignments. Anything you want.
[3:33][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] I have a message for you from the Director. I'll let you watch it while i go get us some cake
[3:33][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*she starts a message for ezri
[3:33][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I didn't say I couldn't stomach it... I
[3:34][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I will do what is needed, I just, it's so unexpected. I thought I woudl be flying shuttle duty for a few years, maybe some gamma shift helm time. This is so, sudden.
[3:34][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I know, right? It's -awesome-.
[3:35][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He pouted.* "Well, the secrecy, maybe not so much. Starfleet has maybe... two... three... notable cardassians. I want to blaze a path for my people, you know?
[3:35][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Well go sing us somehting. Thats the fun of karoake you don't even have to be good
[3:35][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:*he looks at Telek* We have a designated driver..
[3:35][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:With that trombone of yours you truly shall blaze
[3:35][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"That's good, because you can't fly for shit. All your father's genes went into your drinking.
[3:36][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*she came back after it was done with a chocolate and trillberry syrup cake
[3:36][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He grinned at Adama.* "The trombone is an instrument of beauty and grace few can appreciate.
[3:36][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"The secrecy is part of the biggest issue for me. I ... I admit it, I wanted to be known. To be more known than my mother.
[3:37][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "i love Trillberry cake.
[3:37][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:I know telek, we still need to scedule a new jamming session
[3:37][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] I know. See thats how you know it won't be a mind wipe.. i didn't give you pie
[3:38][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I mean, I know she was in trouble a lot, but she was known as really talented in the control seat. I want that. I want to have her admit I'm better than she was.
[3:38][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Hmm. Well, that can be an issue. Eyes forward. If she's truthful about this "any assignment you want" thing... you may end up on the enterprise. Or hell, something bigger.
[3:38][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "that makes sense..lst mind wipe they tried to convince me i liked broccoli.
[3:38][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"And names like that always make officers famous." *He then grinned at Adama.* "They probably have a ton of holodecks up here. We can definitely get a 1930s jazz bar vibe going.
[3:38][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I think you have to remember the if we survive part of that.
[3:39][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Think of it this way - if you don't survive, you got absolutely nothing to worry about. You'll be dead, what do you care?
[3:39][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I don't want to be known for dying in something stupid like, a leaking air seal on my suit causing me to suffocate or something like that.
[3:40][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Well my division doesn't mind wipe unless we really need to one of the changes i made. I prefer the threat and monitor to actually doing it
[3:40][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I spent most of my life in space, trust me, that would be humiliating.
[3:40][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] The only good thing the black uniform brings
[3:40][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She just gave a slight shrug of her shoulders.* "I'd rather not," *she said simply as she drank.
[3:40][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Fair enough
[3:40][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Well, that's pretty easily avoidable, really. And we managed to banish a beast of pure darkness already, so I gotta say I like our chances against whatever we may encounter.
[3:41][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "it always seemed pointless. it was the Salvation administrator. i think they did stuff like that just to be mean.
[3:41][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"What if we go through one of those portals and there is no air?
[3:41][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"So with stupid deaths caused out of incompetence and non-adherence to basic safety protocols, and deaths to shadow beasts out of the way, we're pretty good.
[3:41][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Pretty much. So eight hours only? Thats all you experienced
[3:41][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I'm sure we'll be going in suited up. And we can probably send in probes first to scope the place out for us.
[3:42][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] --shrugged-- "i don't know really. They don't have clocks in there. It didn't feel very long.
[3:42][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"If you are speaking the truth and we don't have to fight for that, then this is exciting. I just don't want to be seen as expendable, like a probe.
[3:42][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Tell me about this dark presence
[3:43][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "Zul'Zarath. He was jerk.
[3:43][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*the jukebox simply started playing a random playlist
[3:43][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:*drinks* Well I think I can safely assume that you're not expendable to me and the spoon here
[3:43][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Sounds Lovecraftian
[3:43][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Mm. I can't offer much comfort there. The pragmatic cardassian part of me says that's the reason we were chosen.
[3:44][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"You know what... Conor, I'll take a shot at that machine when it's open.
[3:44][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"its open.
[3:44][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"He's right. If the team doesn't watch each other's asses, nobody else will. We stick together.
[3:44][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"its open.
[3:44][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Think its just going through a playlist
[3:44][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "I think it was left over dark energy from the Black Ocean. maybe it formed its own seperate consciousness or something.
[3:45][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Wouldn't be the firt time we've encountered that
[3:45][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"You think it has 21st century Bon Jovi in the banks?
[3:45][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:The bird has found her wings. *raised his glass before finishing it off.
[3:45][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Echos left behind after the Dark's Reintegration
[3:45][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "yeah, but i never remembered them having names.
[3:45][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"It had Lady gaga, no reason for it to not have bon jovi.
[3:45][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] No.. the Chosen however might have, We think they basically suicided themselves to do the Mind plague
[3:46][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] But maybe not all of them did
[3:46][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"i know it sounds cheesy, but he is my favorite.
[3:46][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I am certian it does. Pretty sure my Da programed a lot of it
[3:47][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "its hard to say when old Zul entered the portal..he was there when i arrived.
[3:47][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Bon Jovi -is- cheesy. But nothing wrong with cheesy.
[3:47][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"So queen, bon jovi, rush, floyd, thin lizzy, van halen all that is in there
[3:47][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Well hopefully we've got rid of him
[3:48][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] At least for now. I'll be watching though i think its worth the risk
[3:48][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I know da hates it. Ma just laughs when I sang along in my suit, and only I could hear the music but they could hear me.
[3:48][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] What do you make of the kids
[3:48][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "i hope so. He was no where to be seen when we went through the portal so maybe he evaporated in the sunlight or somehting.
[3:49][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] They were all on the director's list. So im curious how they performed
[3:50][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "They all seemed pretty level headed. The blue one was not as murderey as remember the Tannies to be.
[3:50][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Dru get up and goes to the machine to cue up "It's My Life" * https://youtu.be/9SKFwtgUJH
[3:52][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*Telek chuckled.* "Very cheesy indeed." *He raised his drink to Dru and took a sip, before looking back to Adama.* "How you feelin' about... all this?
[3:53][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Dru gets into it enough stand on a chair while singing, but almost falls because she doesn't have her eyes open, and doesn't stand still
[3:53][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Alots changed on that front
[3:53][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] They are all a bit less murdery
[3:54][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He laughed.* "Easy! You'll kill yourself before the job has a chance to do it!
[3:54][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Beats dwiddling my thumbs while the nerds get to do stuff. I am all game, hell might experience stuff that I can better bond with my parents
[3:54][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "i am glad that war is over.
[3:54][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"...You'll better bond with your parents because you're.. doing what we're gonna do?
[3:54][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I don't see the connection.
[3:55][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] We've had aroudn 20 year sof peace outside of the Nymati crusade agains thte Zhyx. but we try keep our involvement there low
[3:55][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Hasn't stopped the Mjolnir, Myrmiddon and Protector from having their fair share of "accidental" engagements thoug
[3:55][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Besides, I'm pretty sure we can't say shit to our parents.
[3:55][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "i ahve a lot to catch up on. Speaking of which...am i allowed to contact the rest of the protector crew?
[3:56][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "I bet they will be glad to know i am not dead.
[3:56][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:How can I put it? Erhm (he looked at Dru* The subtlety of certain events. Because I know my parents did alot of things during the war... I think most of it like what we'll do. Secrecy
[3:56][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Dru finishes walking over the chair to gently tip is back and off the back* "Now I feel better.
[3:57][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He nodded at Adama.* "That explains how they know tall, dark and scary.
[3:57][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*she hangs up the mic, and resets the machine to just play
[3:58][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Captain blaine is currently commanding the stardance
[3:58][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:She is just the witch, they also knew this other woman who'd put the tannies, romulans and well your folk to shame in torture practiuces
[3:58][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] The protector is now und erhte command of Captain Defoors
[3:59][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"That's bull. -Nobody- tortures better than cardassians.
[3:59][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] We will spring you on them next time they are near the citadel. i would like to watch that
[3:59][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Bartender, something different. Something native to the LMC that has some sweetness to it.
[3:59][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] His hair may turn fully grey
[4:00][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "What about V'Tira, T'Lena, Bore, Zhal they are on the new ship, right?
[4:00][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:[Holo Hank] "How about a Kirtascan cactus fruit cocktail?
[4:00][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:I swear. Supposedly trained by aunt Liz at some points
[4:00][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara]"V'tira and Cathy are on earth, they have four children.

[4:01][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Huh. I'd have loved to meet Admiral Razzor. She sounds like a hell of a woman. Shame about... the incident.
[4:01][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "Oh good. Bore will be glad to see me.
[4:01][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Commander T'lena went into permanant stasis she developed a degenerative temproal mental disease from carrygint eh fragment

[4:02][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Commander Zhal is the first officer on teh Stardancer, along with Lt Commander Daly being there as well
[4:02][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "Temporal mental disease? They are working on a cure right?
[4:02][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Unforutnatley even the Avynei could not cure it
[4:02][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"A refill of this can work." *He nods at the whiskey glass.
[4:03][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] The referenced the Azreyane of being a potential hope but no one has seen them or the Luminaire offshoot since the end of the war
[4:03][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] her and Captain Blaine have a Daughter Maeve, who is an ensign on the Stardancer
[4:03][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "..yeah a lot has changed...except me, i am the same.

[4:03][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:*He nodded as he stood up and walked back to bar* A refill on the ale and whisky please
[4:04][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] I finally look slightly older than 40. Not bad for 92 eh
[4:04][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:[Holo Hank] *He distributed refills as requested.
[4:04][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "You don't look a day over 39.
[4:05][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Let's also give everyone here a round of sambuca shots Hank
[4:06][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:[Holo Hank] "Excellent choice, sir." *He arranged the shots at the counter.
[4:07][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*The bar countertop has a very noticeable "BLAINE SUX" carved into it, very deeply, almost as if someone used some sort of laser weapon to do it.
[4:08][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*Telek approached at seeing the shots.* "Damn. I think we're gonna need the meds tomorrow morning.
[4:09][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"shots huh.
[4:09][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"shots huh.
[4:09][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] *smiels

[4:09][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Well get soem rest ezri you haven't slept in over 20 years
[4:10][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] I had them put a cot in your lab liek you like
[4:10][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"During the academy I didn't have to worry about being proper for possibly the most important mission of my life." *He grinned and took a shot in his hand.
[4:10][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*Lili lifted a brow, but reached to pluck her shotglass from the counter.* "To what do we toast?
[4:10][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "yeah, it has been a while either way. A cot is fine if you don't have a room available.
[4:10][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"The team.
[4:10][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"A drink of covenant, then. I suppose it's appropriate.
[4:11][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] I do actually if you want to stay here
[4:11][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:[Inara] Guest bedroom is down the hall
[4:11][DOIC4]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*inara's quartering ont eh citadel was expansive, more like a small house complte with a garden
[4:11][DOIC4]Peebles@Demoncheru:[Ezri] "That will work. Normally i don't need a comfotable bed but Ruby get cranky if she doesn't sleep in a comfortable bed.
[4:12][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"If the wills of fate see fit to litter worlds beyond our comprehension in places outside the known universe, or if they see fit to have us return as heroes, let us serve with dignity and honor."
[4:12][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:(To littter our bones on worlds*
[4:12][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He raised his glass.* "To us.
[4:12][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Ok, the sambuca,... taht is terrible.
[4:12][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*he toasted and drank
[4:12][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Chateau, shatta, time to get this down unda. *he raised his glass and then taps the countertop before shotting
[4:12][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He drank.
[4:13][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*she was ok with the cactus coctail
[4:13][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Very.. floral
[4:13][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Anu iska." *She drank.
[4:14][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"On a lighter note... you all figured out your halloween costumes?
[4:14][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Never wore one. Not sure.
[4:14][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Toss up between a Dark Angel or a Custodes i think.
[4:14][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"You never had halloweens in the academy?" *He blinked.
[4:15][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Dark angel? Like, one of those archons we read about?
[4:15][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Go Custodes man
[4:15][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I do look good in gold. You play?
[4:15][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Usually I just wear something leather and no one asks too many questions about it.
[4:16][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Used to yeah
[4:16][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"What is a custodes?
[4:16][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I've got an army to paint to keep busy with me.
[4:17][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Oooh, I remember now. Those were those figures you liked, right?
[4:17][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He looked at Adama.
[4:17][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Yeah but I had the ultra marines. But like that yea
[4:17][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Smurfs huh.
[4:17][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I've read about Halloween, but it wasn't celebrated back home, I never thought about dressing up. Any suggestions?
[4:18][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Well i guess they are the heros of 90 percent of th eholonovels.
[4:18][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"If you don't have any ideas, it's always good to go as something lazy. For example, put on a long, flowing green dress, and bam - you're an elf.
[4:18][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Well with halloween you can go serious or you can go fun or sexy or slutty
[4:18][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"If I had the body for it, I'd go slutty Darth Vader. Now I'm just going as Darth Vader.
[4:19][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:My dad once went in dressed like a wrestler of the past together with a klingon if remeber correctly
[4:19][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Yeah, wrestler is probably easy. Just go in your underwear.
[4:19][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"So, when I read about it, it said that people dressed as spirits, and demons that frightened them, so that when the veil was thin they would not be harrassed by the demons. It doesn't sound lik
[4:19][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Thats what the klingon did I think
[4:19][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:what you are talking about.
[4:20][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Halloween has evolved long past its pagan human origins. Now it's abotu dressing up as whatever you like and having fun with a lot of candy and booze.
[4:20][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:You go to get smashed, or go smash
[4:21][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Both is also a frequently chosen option.
[4:21][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"...I do hope we catch a party on the citadel so I have an excuse to chat up one of those snake women...
[4:21][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"So more like a costume party than a pagan ritual.
[4:21][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Aye?
[4:21][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Pretty much, yeah.
[4:22][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I think I understand... that opens up a lot of possibilties. Too many I think.
[4:22][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"It is oh so terrible to be a victim of choice, isn't it?
[4:23][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"like that choice I made for the beryxian party... yes.
[4:23][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Mmm... what are you thinking? Set up a dictaroship and take free choice away?
[4:23][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:(Dictatorship*
[4:23][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She smiled sweetly at Telek.* "I don't know why you'd even suggest a thing of me.
[4:23][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"no no, just overwhelming the possibilities... and also worrying about offending anyone.
[4:24][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He grinned and shrugged innocently, giving her a -much- too obvious conspiratorial wink.
[4:25][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"If you'd excuse me." *She stepped out.
[4:26][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"So, what is it you guys do for fun apart from painting armies?
[4:26][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I play rugby.
[4:26][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"And Golf.
[4:26][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I am much too delicate and pretty for rugby. Volleyball. And I -do- paint. But model starships.
[4:26][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Riding horses is probably going to be a bit rare.
[4:26][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"And there's also the trombone, of course.
[4:27][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:We have the holodec
[4:27][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Aye but that snto the same.
[4:27][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Sport is fun. Ever practice doing things in 0'g?
[4:27][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:I know... but I grew up like that
[4:27][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"The stench of manure just doesn't hit the same when it's not real, huh?" *He grinned teasingly at Campbell.
[4:27][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I try to avoid 0g unless i need to.
[4:27][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Mor the holographic horses are never a risk to throw you.
[4:28][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Well, it seems our new job will get you all the excitement and risk you need. And nah, 0g sports are not for me.
[4:29][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"It does add a level of difficulty, and freedom. I did gymnastics for years, but add 0'g to it, and the level of difficulty is quite the challenge.
[4:30][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:I remember trying 0g anbo-jiyutsu with my little sister.... I fairly sure I remember my grandfather saying it was the best thing he ever saw for the wrong reasons
[4:30][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I've never tried gymnastics, even if cardassians excel at it. I always prefer sport to have a slight bit of competition to it. But also for it to have teamwork.
[4:31][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Two blidned people swinging at each other with sticks?
[4:31][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"while floating?
[4:32][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Well, There are also martial forms that blend well into gynmastics. They can be competitive, but I wouldn't suggest blindly flailing at each other with sticks
[4:32][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Yeah
[4:32][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Near as to that I would suggest, is 0'g sex.
[4:33][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"0g sex sounds like it'd be an actual nightmare of fluids.
[4:33][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Theres a few reasons why fluid dynamics makes that much harder or should i say softer than it should be.
[4:35][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Trust me, in 0'g, oral is the way to go." *stated as a matter of fact* "While it is possible to do traditional, Conor is right, there is a performance issue for most.
[4:36][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*he chuckles
[4:36][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"People think it sounds like all kinds of fun, and ... not wrong, but never wha you would think.
[4:36][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Oh... right... he has a point. It wouldn't really... flow there, would it?
[4:36][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"fightign alot of equal and oposite reactions too.
[4:36][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"It does, just... takes a lot of help.
[4:36][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Bouncing recoils.
[4:36][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He chuckled.* "No, thank you. Give me a nice bed.
[4:37][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*laughs
[4:37][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Maybe a sun-warmed flat rock.
[4:37][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Never would I suggest to anyone that be their go to, but ... just stating it can be a challenge.
[4:39][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"So - if you had the chance to be with -any- famous starfleet personnel... who would it be?
[4:39][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"like playing chess... need a magneted set, but you can still do it.
[4:39][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Famous? Define.
[4:39][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"And define, with
[4:39][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Just... someone we'd all know. Not, say, a cadet you did your cruise with.
[4:40][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"With sexually.
[4:40][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Jadzia Dax.
[4:40][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*he didn't even have a delay.
[4:40][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Not even a second of thinking.
[4:40][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:T'Pol. *witha second to think
[4:41][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Oh, so like, historical figures we have a fantasy about... Hmm not sure I want to say.
[4:41][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Hmm. Actually I kind of stumped myself.
[4:41][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Come on it cannae be that bad.
[4:42][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"It kind of can.
[4:43][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"It can't be that bad. And hmm. Dr. Beverly Crusher.
[4:43][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Ginger...nice
[4:44][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"And she'd probably know things about your body you'd never even imagine, no matter what species you are.
[4:44][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Come on Dru who is it?
[4:44][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Fine, Worf, the klingon.
[4:45][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Well then if we get a time machine we know where we are going.
[4:45][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*Lili eventually reappeared and headed back to the bar.
[4:45][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"What's so embarrassing about that?
[4:45][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"He's a klingon!
[4:45][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"...So?
[4:46][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"But , in all the holos, he is so passionate, about everything.
[4:46][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Isn't klingon sex like, a lot of punching and biting?
[4:47][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"And he's only a slight edge out over Sarek of Vulcan. I can't explain it either.
[4:47][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She raised her brows.* "...What did I miss?
[4:47][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Sarek is kind of like a daddy figure for all vulcans. That probably explains it.
[4:47][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"We were talking about which famous historical starfleet person we'd sleep with.
[4:48][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"There really has to be more to it though, he had two human wives that he made very happy.
[4:48][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I mean, he's pretty much the most famous vulcan father. That's the daddy kink thing. The human woman thing... he was exotic.
[4:49][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"And probably skilled.
[4:49][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She just shrugged and ordered a new Beryxian whiskey.
[4:49][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Dru just sort of skipped over the punching and biting thing with a bite on her lip and looking away.
[4:50][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*sips his drink
[4:50][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"What about you lily?
[4:50][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:"Oh, Captain Valkriss, without a doubt.
[4:51][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"See? Nothing embarrassing about saying a klingon!" *he told Dru.
[4:53][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I can't even imagine that.
[4:53][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Hey, actually, wasn't she into cardassians? A woman of good taste, too.
[4:53][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:She isn't scally enough for you Telek
[4:53][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I am not saying I would want to be with her. I am just applauding her good sense and taste.
[4:54][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"No offense Telek, but scales are your thing. I can't say that is shared by me.
[4:54][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"That's only fair. Everyone's got their own thing.
[4:55][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I suppose i just look back a wee bit further I've actually met Captain Valkriss when i was a wee lad.
[4:55][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Oh? That's pretty cool.
[4:55][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Did she sign a klingon kap for you or something?
[4:55][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Same with Admiral Talia and Admiral Arnimane
[4:55][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"That is cool. Except at the academy and visiting Earth, I can count on one hand how many famous people I've met.
[4:55][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Share the same with admiral talia
[4:56][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"No she and Illya were visiting Roma when we were there visiting A friend of my fathers
[4:56][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"It was actually a pretty sad time.
[4:57][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Oh...
[4:57][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Why was it sad?
[4:57][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"SHe was terminal essentially. Was sort of a party.
[4:58][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"She was throwing for all her friends i think she had jus tbeen diagnosed or somethign i was still a wee one.
[4:58][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"this woudl have been 2438 maybe.
[4:58][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I had Captain Valkriss and Commander Aquila sign my Pilgrim and Friends action figures
[5:00][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Oh, I didn't know that was how things ended up for her. I've seen a few episodes of the Pilgrim program, but wasn't a big researcher of all the officers.
[5:00][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Not Valkriss
[5:00][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"My da's friend was Commadner T'lena
[5:01][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I'll tell ya who 8 year old me had a crush on.
[5:01][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Pilgrim and freinds was actually pretty big back home. I imagine it was planted as part of a federation propaganda campaign, of course. But it was pretty cool.
[5:01][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"If Commander Aria had scales, she'd be the perfect woman.
[5:01][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Lt Commander Daly.
[5:02][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"oh" *she looks at her drink* "There wasn't that many people who came to my world, we were still rebuilding and a lot of people were afraid of it because of all the recovering borg.
[5:03][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Wait, didn't it come out that Daly was an android? I remember something about it when that new law was passed. I was in third grade I think.
[5:04][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Aye she is.
[5:05][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*giggles* "Is that why you study engineering? so you can make your own?
[5:05][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Which might make things a we bit awkward if i run into her.
[5:05][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Oh no. I'll leave the whole android life creation to someone else
[5:06][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Im more reactors and computer systems.
[5:07][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Isn't that "Engineering" for I like to work on the heart and mind? we won't judge if that's your thing
[5:08][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Well maybe I'll judge a little, but I can't help it
[5:08][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I don't judge, really. If you enjoy it, why would I judge?
[5:08][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*giggles
[5:08][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*chuckles
[5:09][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I do not judge. I am just deeply confused.
[5:10][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Seriously though, I understand why engineering. I dabbled in it myself on the family ship. Everyone had to be able to do the simple stuff at least.
[5:11][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:As often telek...Just don't confuse where my heart is please
[5:11][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Somewhere above your legs and below your head.
[5:12][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"ooh, eirily specific
[5:12][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Eerie? Nah, I am just that good.
[5:13][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"I heard of a female doctor that good... her male patient went to her for an examination and she told him he had to stop masturbating. He asked why, and she said so she could complete the examinatio
[5:13][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:*laughs
[5:13][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:*He chuckled.* "I pray none of you are that kind of patients.
[5:14][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"If so, I'll go tell the new boss I am giving up right now.
[5:14][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*laughing* "Oh my god no.
[5:14][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Oh please she already knows i bet.
[5:14][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:The witch certainly knows
[5:15][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"That is freeky, I bet she read all our minds before we were recruited... I have to admit she is scary.
[5:15][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"And kinda hot.
[5:15][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"For a near-human, yeah.
[5:15][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:*sips in agreement with Campbell
[5:15][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Men" *sighs and drinks
[5:16][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"I bet she can restrain you with her mind.
[5:16][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She finished her drink.* "I believe I'll be headed out now. Enjoy your evenings." *She turned to depart.
[5:16][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:*Looking over at Telek* "I have no doubt.
[5:17][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Goodnight Liliath" *Carefully pronouncing her name
[5:17][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Good night.
[5:17][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:Goodnight blueberry
[5:17][DOIC1]Adama@n7pathfinder#397:I think I remember another story about her..
[5:17][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"Being restrained with her mind isn't nearly as fun as you think.
[5:18][DOIC1]Liliath Var@liorexu:*She arched a brow at Adama before nodding at the others and departing.
[5:18][DOIC1]Campbell@Captain_Rien:"Oh?
[5:18][DOIC1]Draganov@Gonz.:"Honestly, being restained by mental power doesn't sound fun at all.
[5:18][DOIC1]Telek Liron@bulgariandragon:"I imagine it's like how she stopped me talking. She just makes yourr body not listen to you.
