[6:03][DOIC]V'Tira@Isis:we see the crew lounge about as they go over their checklists and double check their gear as their trip is approachign their destination...we hear Marcus Log as a voice over as rolling clouds of th
[6:03][DOIC]V'Tira@Isis:cluster loom over the tiny ships..
[6:03][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:“Captain’s log, stardate 100587.12. I figured those sons of— damn it. Computer, erase that.”
[6:03][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:“Captain’s log, stardate 100587.12. It seems that command had decided that we’ve had enough postwar leave. Either that, or they really didn’t want to spring for rooms on Risa again. In any case..
[6:03][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:our presence is already needed back at work, and so back to work we go. I’m joined by most of the Manta’s bridge gang with the addition of my chief engineer and chief medical officer for a..
[6:04][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:four-week posting on HC-187, over in the Yatana system. We’ve been granted two runabouts for the trip, the Morris and Sussex, the former to serve as our ops and living quarters and the latter for..
[6:05][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:cargo. We’ve also picked up a trio of security officers. Once we link up with the research team designated Able 25, I suppose we’ll find out more about just what it is that they’re excavating. ..
[6:05][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:Whatever it is, I hope it’s worth twenty-eight days on a thawing planet. End log.”
[6:06][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-a sigh as she goes over some reports
[6:07][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I mean maybe theres nice skiing
[6:07][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Could find a hot spring.
[6:07][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"That too.
[6:07][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"How geologically active is this planet
[6:08][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He set the PADD down with a slight chuckle.* "I'm sure we'll have plenty of time to explore around the site.
[6:08][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-to Zhal=-We are heading to a mostly dormany volcanic mountain rang
[6:08][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Maybe we could find an ancient race of mammoths that grow to the size of a housecat or something. Think positive.
[6:08][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"there would be money in that.
[6:08][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:Dacia sits, strapped into her chair and taps away at a computer console. She'll do a quick search for interesting facts about HC-187
[6:08][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Sighs* "Maybe we can activate one?
[6:08][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Absolutely. Although I imagine mammoths would shed like crazy.
[6:08][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"And gore the family dog.
[6:09][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...And we're not activating any volcanoes, not on purpose anyway. Not unless that's what the researchers are trying to do, in which case... fair play.
[6:09][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:blinks as she listens to the other
[6:10][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"I got a mining laser, I could probably activate a couple of volcanoes.
[6:10][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Ponders a way to seduce one into letting him activate a volcano.
[6:10][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"There are definitley mammals there.
[6:10][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"hm...
[6:10][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Should we not be prepared for the risk this is gonna go like it usually does?
[6:10][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Tritusked mammals as well of large sized
[6:10][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Why do you think they're sending us?
[6:10][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:That drilling laser could ...in theory reactivate a volcano's cauldar
[6:10][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"The way it usually does? Haven't you been here for like... half a year?
[6:10][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"The better half of the year too...
[6:11][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"usually our missions turn out just fine.
[6:11][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"There have been signs of steady plant growth in the wake of the thawing, it is not impossible we will run into animal life converging to feed.
[6:11][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"and in that time we have had to meet with people I think three times only for them to be dead or missing when we arrive
[6:11][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Never know charm and a smile might get us that hot spring.
[6:11][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Nah, Ezri's got it. Our missions end up fine.
[6:11][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Hell, smile pretty enough at Ristovski and maybe he'll build you a hot tub.
[6:11][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--looks at Sarah-- "well turn out fine for us anyway.
[6:12][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"He hates me most days cap. Doubt he wants to build a hot tub.
[6:12][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"If I had the material for a hot tub, I'm building one and charging you favors and rations for it.
[6:12][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Anyone wants in the tub, they gotta bargain.
[6:12][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"He'll build it for me, won't you, Bore? After all I've done for you." *He smirked over his shoulder.
[6:12][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Let me in or i shall tell Nadine on yo
[6:12][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-deadpans
[6:13][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Nah, V'Tira, that's no leverage... Captain seems to have one over on me, though.
[6:13][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"keep in mind we are talking about an ending ice age, its expected to end in a couple centuries...which is quick for a geological phenomenon.
[6:13][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Fine, but that's only a five-day pass. You still got twenty two more days.
[6:13][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-ponders and then- Very well Bore..challenege accepte
[6:13][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I can kill you in 207 undetectable ways
[6:13][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Do your worst.
[6:13][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Both of you.
[6:14][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-tries to not smile at the doc's comments
[6:14][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Be careful, doc, about 175 of those would be a dream come true for him.
[6:14][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Rocks his head around and seems to wince slightly for no apparent reason.
[6:14][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-quirks a brow- Captain? Incoming hail from Yatana I
[6:15][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Put them on, then.
[6:15][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Everyone, get decent.
[6:15][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-nods- Audio only sir, it is Prof. Vivian Norman
[6:15][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri looks down at what she is wearing.-
[6:16][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Never mind about decency, then. Let's hear her.
[6:16][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:[Dacia roll pls..ezri as well
[6:17][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-nods- Hail open...'...Morris..come in please...can you receive us? Please respond
[6:17][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"We hear you, Professor. Is everything alright down there?
[6:17][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:[Norman] -cheerfully- Oh yes yes..yes we are fine Commande.r.this is Commander Blaine is it
[6:18][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--shivers momentarily befoere checking the cabin enviromental controls.-
[6:18][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"That it is, ma'am. And you must be Professor Vivian Norman.
[6:19][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Watches the shuttle's velocity and altitude monitors on the panel in front of him.
[6:19][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:[Norman] -chipper tone- I am at that..a true honor commander, welcome back home to you and the others from the 22nd.
[6:19][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--turns the temperature down-
[6:20][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Thank you, Professor, it's good to be back. We're still a little ways out, but we should be there on time. Is there anything you needed in the meantime?
[6:21][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:[Norman] Oh good lord no, We are just a little excited and dedcided to make an early check in..we will be sendign you the landing beacon to our runabouts campsite...and leave it on for you. May I as
[6:21][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:is the drill ready to go upon arrival
[6:21][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-the air in the cabin is a nice cooler temp
[6:21][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He smirked slightly at the nerd enthusiasm, then turned to look at Bore.* "Ristovski, is the drill going to be ready to go when we get there?
[6:22][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"She's old, but damn good. I made a little bit of my own personal touch too. She's good to go whenever you want her.
[6:23][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-a squeal of delight from the professor
[6:23][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He nodded and faced forward again.* "Don't know if you heard that but... oh, apparently you did. Good.
[6:23][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-some cheering muted can be heard over the coms
[6:23][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Did that just...
[6:23][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Alright then.
[6:23][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore grins, completely understanding the excitement over a powerful laser drill.
[6:23][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:[Norman] delightful commander and thank you to your engineer..we shall look forward to your arrival..all of you
[6:23][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:raises a curious bro
[6:24][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-just sighs once
[6:24][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Might I ask what's got you so excited down there? I assume we'll go over it when I get there, but we're all fairly curious about what it is we're getting into.
[6:24][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i wonder what we are digging for?
[6:24][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Diamonds?
[6:25][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Xenomorph eggs probably.
[6:25][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:[Norman] Well it is veyr hard to say Commander..it is mostly speculation of what this 'void' beneath a glacial fall might be...the theories can run from them7undane to the ..well ..unusua
[6:25][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-Ezri can hear a fellow xeno lover soundoff that someone else opes as well
[6:25][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-Ezri can hear a fellow xeno lover soundoff that someone else hopes as well
[6:26][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He drew in a breath, then gave a slight chuckle.* "Well, we've spent the last few years in another galaxy, unusual is kind of our thing. Anything else you want us to make ready for the arrival?
[6:26][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Did he say void?
[6:26][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:nods to Zhal "Yeah
[6:27][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Sometimes a void is just a void...
[6:27][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:[Norman] To be well fed..our pilot Ensign Paine is quite the little chef and she has a nice hot stew readyf or you all...-at some prodding- and some local 'hootch' from Dr Blake to wamr yourselves t
[6:27][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:warm
[6:27][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Whispers under his breath.* "Have we ever been that lucky?
[6:27][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"it is curious they did nto fully say what they found
[6:27][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"People, still on the hail here...
[6:27][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-looks right at the doc andnods
[6:28][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Narrows his eyes at the comm panel at that more annyoed at this Ensign 'Paine' than was probably fair.
[6:28][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"They may have some competition when we get there. If there's nothing else, Professor, we'll see you soon.
[6:28][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore looks curious at the mention of local hooch.
[6:28][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:Dacia taps at her console again and brings up the file on Professor Vivian Norman, curious to learn about her background
[6:28][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Once Blaine cut the hail.* "Local hooch? That's all they needed to say to get me out here.
[6:29][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Mutters under his breath.* "Already dont like the pilot...
[6:29][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:[Norman] -warmly indeed Commander, we shall leave a candle in the window for you all///site abl eou
[6:29][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:[Norman] -warmly indeed Commander, we shall leave a candle in the window for you all...site able ou
[6:29][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-nods as thehail ends..finally
[6:29][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"We'll look for it. Morris out.
[6:29][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-nods as thehail ends..finally
[6:30][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Wonder if the hooch could be used in a cocktail or something else
[6:30][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"This should be fun.
[6:30][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Looks at the nav display.
[6:30][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He rubbed his forehead a moment.* "How long, Zhal?
[6:30][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Four hours at present speed.
[6:31][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...Anyone know some good road trip games?
[6:31][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:[Lane] -theburly security officer crosses his arm and leans on the console near Dacia- I spy si
[6:31][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"I spy with my little eye, something that begins with S.
[6:31][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...Is it a star?
[6:31][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-the guard smiles at Dacia at this
[6:31][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Shuttle INterior?
[6:31][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:[Lane] -nods- got me si
[6:31][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Sighs
[6:31][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"No, sir. It is not. It is a Shuttle, Wynn. Well done.
[6:32][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:[Lane] -chuckles
[6:32][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Really.
[6:32][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"I guess so, doc.
[6:32][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I can't play this game.
[6:32][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Continues monitoring the panel.* "What I wouldnt give for the Manta...
[6:32][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I see in more colors than all of you.
[6:32][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-begins ot sing- 9 thousand nine hundred and ninety nine bottles of water on the wall.
[6:32][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"V'Tira, I will have you beamed over onto the cargo runabout.
[6:33][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Pools of the ancients not that damn song.
[6:33][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Aye si
[6:33][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-ceases
[6:33][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Doc, I don't think you see in more colors, all colors already exist.
[6:33][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"No, it's just an expanded capacity to perceive them, Ristovski.
[6:33][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Oh Bore..
[6:34][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-looks at Marcuas..impressed for once
[6:34][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Bore ther eare more than 8.
[6:34][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He glanced back at V'Tira.* "...I know -some- things.
[6:34][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:I would hope sir -nods encourgaingly
[6:35][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"Sir, you might be interested in hearing this. According to Professor Norman's file, she specializes in Ancient Xeno-archeology. Despite being young for her position, she has a storied record wit
[6:35][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Yeah, there are. Hell, there's like 50 kinds of blue. You start with azure, go through turquoise, baby...
[6:35][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:many interesting finds. If she's in charge of the site, it is likely because they think remains of an ancient civilization are possible.
[6:36][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He nodded slowly.* "Xeno-archaeology. I already got the feeling T'Ghor was going to be pissed he didn't get to come, now I'm fairly sure he's going to break at least one item of furniture over it.
[6:36][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Ancient civilization? That's pretty cool.
[6:36][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--looks over at Dacia at the mention of ancient civilization, but says nothing.-
[6:37][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Course, that means ou won't get ot see the full earth-shattering power of the drill since we'll have to be careful not to break something.
[6:37][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Now, I know some of you don't need to hear this, but for those that weren't around when the Pilgrim dug up that ancient Scyrthi ruin... do -not- touch any ominous glowing gems.
[6:37][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Cant we cut trough a random mountain or something to test it?
[6:38][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...I'm sure they already tested it before they gave it to us.
[6:38][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:...deathclou
[6:38][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"if it is an ancient civilization it would have to be pretty ancient. The planey has been in an ice age for the last 3 to 4 million years.
[6:38][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"No glowing gems, got it
[6:39][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Curious enoough...it was on HC-19..the USS Sentinel discovered what was at the gtime believed tobe a S31 base awakeneing a deathcloud..whicbn nearly destryoed the colony ther
[6:39][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Unless they were living under the ice for a while. Or all this time.
[6:39][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"V'Tira, you're ray of fuckin' sunshine.
[6:40][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-to Bore- Language si
[6:40][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Look, the short of it is, we have experience and knowledge about awakening and unleashing terrible entities. So I want us all to be smart about everything we do down there.
[6:40][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Andoria is alwasys in an ice age.,
[6:41][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"they could jus tbe blue people that don't liek pink skins.
[6:41][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"They went through all of that so that we'll be better prepared now. We won't let it happen again if there's any potential for it.
[6:41][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Indeed Doco
[6:41][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Indeed Docto
[6:41][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Even humanity made it through their ice age
[6:42][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Not some of our cousins, but... we're prettier anyway.
[6:42][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:Debateable, sir.
[6:43][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Pretty is in the eye of the beholder
[6:43][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"You did the Cro-Magnon Dream Date on the DS9 holosuite, didn't you, Zhal?
[6:43][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"... Just share my holosuite experience why dont you.
[6:43][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"The what?
[6:43][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"What is that?
[6:44][DOIC]V'Tira@Isis:as they speak Zhal glides the runabouts into the cluster proper as the lights dim some and the brilliant gasses roll pass the cockpit windows majesticall
[6:44][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Man, people will fu-copulate with anything on a holodeck.
[6:44][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Zhal can explain it.
[6:44][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He grinned.
[6:44][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-nods to Bore at his self edit
[6:44][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:Dacia can't help herself and immediately starts cataloging all the gases
[6:45][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Looked at the console and turned a very bright shade of red.* "I'm a joined trill... we use each experience as adding to the greater whole... just shut up sir... respectfully.
[6:45][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He chuckled and looked out the window.
[6:46][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--scratches her head a moment, as if deep in thought-- "This place seems strangely familiar...i just can't palce it.
[6:47][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Captain...we are now picking up the site able beaco
[6:47][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Looks out at the skyscape as he taps a few buttons and frowns.
[6:47][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Already? I mean, is there anything we can even do about it right now?
[6:48][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--shruggs-
[6:48][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"What is there to do 'cept kick back and relax?
[6:48][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"This area of space?" She looks up from her console a moment and over to Ezri
[6:48][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-quirks a brow- what do you suggest sir
[6:48][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...I'm asking what I'm even supposed to do with that information when we're four hours away, V'Tira.
[6:48][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--looks at Dacia-- "the humans call it Deja Vu.
[6:48][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Not a pleasent one.
[6:48][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Perhaps have Zhal lock onto it to ride to our deztination sir
[6:49][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:but that is only a minor suggestio
[6:49][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Zhal, do you need the assistance, or are you good?
[6:49][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Ran his fingers through his hair as he once again looked out the window.
[6:49][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:Does a quick check to see if all these gases would hinder navigation, making the beacon useful
[6:50][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Fine sir, but I have locked on to the beacon.
[6:50][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:I can block their signal if you wish tro challeneg him si
[6:50][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-deadpans
[6:50][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"No. Just proceed as you feel is best, Zhal, I trust you." *A pause.* "With flying.
[6:51][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-a sigh as she goes back to her console watching
[6:51][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Just not with anything else." *he smirks.
[6:51][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Not with perfectly good scotch, that's for certain.
[6:51][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"It was meant to show affection, but I'll remember that the next time you request Bajoran wings.
[6:51][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-looks over at Zhal at this
[6:52][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"And I showed my affection by restraining myself from punching you in the face." *He smirked.
[6:52][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:That woiuldve constituted as an assault captai
[6:52][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Aren't you glad I didn't do that, then?
[6:52][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-a sigh
[6:53][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Shakes head for a moment as he looks out at the sky scape again and tries to slow his breathing.* "Whats a punch between a Captain and his pilot?
[6:53][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Wait? Captains aren't even allowed to hit their crew?
[6:53][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:..an assaul
[6:53][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"What's the point of climbing the ranks then?
[6:53][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Not in public, anyway.
[6:53][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-just shakes her head
[6:53][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Or where V'Tira can see it, apparently.
[6:53][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Then that would start rumors sir... and respectfully. We each have different tastes.
[6:53][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-narrows ehr eyes at Marcus
[6:53][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Snitches get stitches, V'Tira.
[6:54][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--runs a sensor sweep of the local area, uncertain what she is looking for.-
[6:54][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-narrows ehr eyes at Bore then
[6:54][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"You know very little about me, Zhal, but that's probably for the best." *He chuckled softly.
[6:54][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Grins at V'Tira.
