USS Republic Simlog 09Jan2012

[STSF_BluRox 0]

STSF_BluRox -> Mission Briefing: The Republic has launched the warning buoys around our little zombified planet, and have decided it was time to move on to the next item on our agenda, a diplomatic mission that the Federation wants us to look in on two of the new member worlds, that have reverted to some of their previous territory feuding. On the way however, we do have a few planets that StarFleet Sciences has asked us to take a quick look at.

STSF_BluRox -> BEGIN SIM

 

STSF_BluRox -> ::Enters the bridge and takes a seat in the center chair::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::back on the bridge, piloting the ship::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::in their quarters, getting ready to return to work::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::much mollified by his conversation with the admiral; has returned to work and is sitting with his feet up on his desk in main security::

LtCdrJohnson -> ::Back in Engineering after being given a clean bill of health by the Doctor::

Capt Rian Kwai -> ::hanging out in the back of the bridge, doing XO stuff::

Apollo -> ::On the bridge, reviewing the mission profile. He was pleased that they were going to do some survey work, but could care less about the diplomatic stuff. He simply hoped that Will didn't challenge anyone to a duel to the death and that the cultures involved didn't find felines to be bad luck charms.::

Heather Jamieson -> :: Finds herself back in Astrometrics, deep in thought ::

Apollo -> +Heather+ Apollo to Jamieson.

STSF_BluRox -> Rian, looks like we need to multitask a bit here

Heather Jamieson -> +Apollo+ "Jamieson here."

 

Jameson Bardolph -> ::drumming along on the arm of his chair to some music or other with a heavy beat playing on the local speakers::

Capt Rian Kwai -> What's on the agenda? ::moving to the front of the bridge with her PADD in hand::

LtCdrJohnson -> ::catching up on some work, including a diagnostic of the deflector array::

Heather Jamieson -> :: Heather watched as recent images of the planets they would encounter flew into formation on the AM screen ::

August Jax Robinson -> ::Tackles Will::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::wonders if August® is still mad at him for destroying part of the ship, isn’t used to the silent treatment from her. She is usually very loud.::

Apollo -> +Jamieson+ Apparently we'll be doing some planetary surveys, not sure yet if they'll be fly-bys or what, but you'll need to have astrometrics ready to go in either case. I'll want as much data as you can collect.

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::and is then tackled::

August Jax Robinson -> ::Punches his arm::

STSF_BluRox -> Well, besides going to deal with the Hatfield’s and McCoy's..... We’ve been asked to check out a cluster of planets that the new traffic heading to our feuding friends, have picked up some very strange

Apollo -> +Jamieson+ I'll send some more data once I have it.

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Purple nurple::

LtCmdrRobinson -> Ouch! What was that for?

Heather Jamieson -> +Apollo+ "Understood. Could not go as bad as our last mission to a planet could it?"

Capt Rian Kwai -> Strange and unusual. Sounds right on par with what Star Fleet likes to see.

August Jax Robinson -> being stupid

LtCmdrRobinson -> You know I'll punch you back right? I'm not above hitting a woman. ::pins her down::

August Jax Robinson -> and breaking my ship

August Jax Robinson -> ::Screams::

STSF_BluRox -> readings as they passed, some sort of electromagnetic energies that were throwing sensors and probe readings right off the scale

Apollo -> ::He shuddered:: +Jamieson+ Well no one tried to ritually sacrifice anyone, so no. Always remember the Starfleet motto... it can always get worse. In any case, begin prepping the arrays for full spectrum scans, as well as all the probes.

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Bites him::

LtCmdrRobinson -> You better hope I’m not contagious, woman. ::kisses her::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::looks over a few reports on a padd, drumming on the edge of it::

LtCmdrRobinson -> Maybe we should take another week off. I could think of some things to keep us busy. ::more kissing::

Apollo -> ::Hears Blu mention electromagnetic interference:: Electromagnetic interference, Admiral?

Jameson Bardolph -> :: blissfully unaware of why his chief is late for work::

STSF_BluRox -> That's the report we had received, I'll forward it to your terminal.

Apollo -> ::Nods:: Thank you.

STSF_BluRox -> Turns to Rian:: We'll have to send down an away team to be certain. I'm assuming we'll send some science and security along to make sure they are ok. Especially in light of the last trip they all made.

Apollo -> +Heather+ And make sure we rig the probes to deal with EM interference... ::looking towards his inbox::

Capt Rian Kwai -> Interesting. So some investigation needed. EV suits this time? Or should we let them wing it again?

LtCdrJohnson -> ::to DeAngelo:: How's the new power matrix been holding up?

Heather Jamieson -> +Apollo+ "I will make sure the countermeasures are installed right away."

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::looks at their heading as she pilots the ship to its destination::

Heather Jamieson -> :: Brings up the protocols for the probes on the big AM screen. Moves modules in and out. ::

August Jax Robinson -> Umm... what is that? ::Points to Heather's Jacket that was left behind::

STSF_BluRox -> Suits please....So, Who to lead this time. I think not Heather. Either Apollo, or that new girl, Tory.

 

LtCdrJohnson -> LtJGDeAngelo>::to Johnson:: Fine for the most part...though I think that the tying it to the deflector would probably conserve power

STSF_BluRox -> What do you think?

Apollo -> ::Hates the EV suites and places a bet with himself that the gods will damn him into having to wear them.::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::looks over:: A jacket.

August Jax Robinson -> who does it belong to... it's not mine

STSF_BluRox -> We should probably send an engineer or two along as well, to help calibrate and adjust the equipment to make sure the EM does not interfere with their readings

August Jax Robinson -> ::Sits up and grabs it::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::mood killed, frowns::

Capt Rian Kwai -> I have no particular preference one way or the other.

LtCmdrRobinson -> I don’t know, probably the babysitters?

August Jax Robinson -> ::Gives him the Look::

August Jax Robinson -> no.. this is to nice for the sitters

LtCmdrRobinson -> The only people that have been in here besides us are the babysitter and Heather.

August Jax Robinson -> ::lifts brow:: Heather?

LtCmdrRobinson -> Yes, from Science. She babysat awhile back.

Heather Jamieson -> :: Sets aside probes for both relaying from the surface and their own readings ::

August Jax Robinson -> so while I was in sickbay healing from you blowing me up you were having other women over?

LtCmdrRobinson -> Either that or one of the boys are stealing things again.

August Jax Robinson -> ::Thwapps him:: my kids don't steal

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::holds hands up:: Back up lady. She was babysitting while I wasn’t even here. I was with you.

LtCmdrRobinson -> Half the stuff in their room is probably stolen. They are like ferrets.

August Jax Robinson -> really? Because you two seemed pretty chummy while in the cargo bay

LtCmdrRobinson -> When were we chummy? When she was trying to kill me or I was trying to kill her?

LtCdrJohnson -> ::looks at some power data::

LtCmdrRobinson -> I'm not having an affair, August. ::rolls eyes::

August Jax Robinson -> don't use that tone!

LtCdrJohnson -> ::to DeAngelo:: You may be right...but I'm not sure we want to risk that

LtCdrJohnson -> LtJGDeAngelo>::to Johnson:: You don't think the two systems can take that kind of intergration?

Heather Jamieson -> :: Looks over the latest subspace transmission methods to punch through EM interference ::

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> This looks actually pretty interesting. I can't wait to see the results.

STSF_BluRox -> Evidently, these two planets, while they have recently joined the Federation, they've done very little long range exploration, so this cluster hasn’t' been really looked at yet. The Federation would like to know not only

August Jax Robinson -> trying to spread your seeds around the whole ship now?

August Jax Robinson -> ::Sniffs jacket:: plus this smells like a women who means business

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::another eye roll:: If I was trying to "spread my seeds" I would start at the top of the command chain and work my way down, not the other way around.

LtCmdrRobinson -> I don’t need to have an affair August. I have a hot wife who gives me all I need.

STSF_BluRox -> what this might be

Heather Jamieson -> :: Heather gets a strange vide all of the sudden, but it passes quickly ::

Capt Rian Kwai -> What about these two new planets? What do you know of them?

STSF_BluRox -> I think the main issue is, if there is something of value here, and those planets are already feuding, the Federation does not want it to become a point of contention

Tory Knight -> ::in the APL, working on her dissertation at one of the lab consoles::

Heather Jamieson -> :: Returns to working out the probes to be used ::

Apollo -> ::Sends along the data he’ d gotten from Blu about the planets involved to both Heather and to Tory, since this might be right up her avenue -- or was it alley? He could never remember what that phrase was.::

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Evil eyes him::

Apollo LtCmdrRobinson -> ::moves in closer:: I wouldn't cheat on you. If you are not convinced, go ask her about it.

Heather Jamieson -> :: Perks up as a new data set arrives at her console ::

Tory Knight -> ::sees the alert about the message from Apollo on her console, but promised herself ten more minutes to work on her dissertation::

LtCdrJohnson -> ::to DeAngelo:: I think they can...but if one is damaged...then they both will be...and with all the ridiculousness we get into...I wouldn't want to risk it...

Heather Jamieson -> :: Sends Tory Knight what she plans to work on with the new data set ::

Tory Knight -> ::looks over at the alert from the message from Heather, arching a brow:: ::mutters:: Ten more minutes...

Heather Jamieson -> :: Displays the two planets on the big AM screen ::

STSF_BluRox -> Well, two planets in the same system, with virtually the same orbit, however, totally equidistant. ::stands and holds arms out to sides parallel

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::puts on his boots:: I have to get on shift, I'm late and this conversation is ridiculous.

 

August Jax Robinson -> Don't think I haven't heard how she has been flirting with you

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::reading over information about the two planets and the system they inhabit::

LtCmdrRobinson -> Everyone flirts with me. So what?

STSF_BluRox -> This first, is Zabra'jin, and this one is Telhamat.

August Jax Robinson -> ::sighs:: go to work

Apollo -> ::Never going to remember either of those.::

STSF_BluRox -> ::starts to slowly spin in a circle with fist held out. This is their orbit

August Jax Robinson -> ::gets up:

Apollo -> ::Puts an electronic post it note on the science console with their names::

August Jax Robinson -> :o

Heather Jamieson -> :: Running the two planets through their history of orbital patterns ::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::kisses her on the cheek:: I love you, my silly paranoid wife.

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::won't remember that either, bad with names::

August Jax Robinson -> love you too

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::heads out the door and for the lift::

Capt Rian Kwai -> Humanoid population?

Jameson Bardolph -> ::coming towards the end of the reports, switches the music to something jazzy::

LtCdrJohnson -> ::jots a few more notes down on a PADD::

August Jax Robinson -> ::Exits and heads to engineering:: +Dave+ how are things going down there?

Apollo -> ::Hopes that they're both humanoid and that none of them are reptilian, or something worse, like ursine, or furry like a feline... he paused, hoping there were no telepaths around to have heard that.::

 

Tory Knight -> ::cross referencing some of her notes, and reorganizing some of her paragraphs in her conclusion::

LtCdrJohnson -> +Jax+ Just fine, the deflector diagnostic is complete and it checks out...we've had some fluctuations in the power grid, probably from all the force fields that were put up and taken down to contain the crewmembers who were infected with whatever the hell that was that put me out of commission for a few days

STSF_BluRox -> One would think this strange orbit might have something to do with the readings, but that's up to you science and engineering folks to figure out

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::walks into main security and heads for his desk::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::having a little jam session with himself as he finishes logging the reports::

Jameson Bardolph -> :: abruptly curtailing it as Will walks in the door::

LtCdrJohnson -> ((did I just get called boy ;) ))

August Jax Robinson -> ::Steps on the lift:: +Dave+ and the repairs from the Hulks rampage?

LtCmdrRobinson -> ((indeed))

Tory Knight -> ::glancing at her clock, noting she has about 90 seconds left::

August Jax Robinson -> {{yes BoyO}}

Apollo -> (( ::whistles innocently:: ))

 

Heather Jamieson -> "Computer, display gravimetric readings over the entire course of the orbital pattern log." ... Computer: "Processing..."

STSF_BluRox -> (no, the one making snide feline comments)

LtCmdrRobinson -> Carry on, Bardolph.

Tory Knight -> ::saves her work, backing it up to the server back at HQ as well::

STSF_BluRox -> (Jax....stop hanging around with that pigboy)

Tory Knight -> ::noting that it simply would not do to lose her entire doctoral thesis to a data glitch::

August Jax Robinson -> {{Ok-O}}

Apollo -> (( They might bother his allergies! Not all felines species are nice enough to by hypoallergnic like the Caitians! ))

Capt Rian Kwai -> ((This is going downhill faster than an Olympic ski jumper))

Ayumu Kasuga -> ((heh))]

LtCdrJohnson -> +Jax+ Mostly...although the cargo bay still has missing pieces of conduit

 

ACTION: ETA to the strange planet cluster (with the awesome magic travel edit) 5 minutes

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Enters engineering::

LtCdrJohnson -> ::see's Jax::

Jameson Bardolph -> Yessir. ::eyeing him sort of sideways, as if to make sure his hulk mode is fully gone, then returns to his console to finish the work::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::it's amazing how time just flies:: We're about 5 minutes from the planet cluster.

Tory Knight -> :: scrolling through the readings -- current and historical -- on the planetary cluster they'll be arriving at within five minutes::

Apollo -> (( is it sad I didn't even have to look at that a second time to read it correctly? ))

LtCdrJohnson -> ::to Jax:: And the environmental control console in there was destroyed...we don't exactly have a spare one of those...so I'll need to scrounge up some parts and make a temporary one

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::sits down and goes through some TPS reports::

STSF_BluRox -> So, that being the case, has anyone figured out how best to approach this, and in a way that we also do not cause problems for our own ship. It might not be too wise to get in too close

Heather Jamieson -> :: Suddenly stops :: "Where did I leave my jacket?" :: Heather said out loud to the empty room ::

 

August Jax Robinson -> use what you need

LtCdrJohnson -> ::nods::

August Jax Robinson -> how are you feeling?

Heather Jamieson -> :: Thinks about her question for a while, then goes on with her work ::

Heather Jamieson -> :: Overlays current readings of the system they are entering shortly ::

LtCdrJohnson -> ::to Jax:: Much better, thank you. I don't remember most of what happened...only that I was confused, angry, and in a weakened state

Capt Rian Kwai -> Good question. Sure we shouldn't probe them first?

Apollo -> Well ... ::he said thinking out loud:: if we're worried about our instrumentation, we might want to take as much of the more sensitive stuff off line as we can, until we can determine if we can develop a counter measure for the EM interference.

Jameson Bardolph -> Will> How are you feeling, sir? ::as he finishes up and switches off his console::

LtCdrJohnson -> ::to Jax:: The Doctor said that I made a perfect guinea pig for testing the eventual vaccine, so I was glad to help in that way

LtCmdrRobinson -> Well I don’t feel like smashing anything if that is what you are worried about. ::grins:: Well not yet anyway.

Apollo -> Jamieson should be working on fitting the probes to shield them -- we could use them as our eyes/ears while we work on making sure we don't ruin the entire sensor palate ... ::glances towards Rian/Blu::\

August Jax Robinson -> ::Sighs:: I guess I should go check on the repairs

STSF_BluRox -> So, that being the case, has anyone figured out how best to approach this, and in a way that we also do not cause problems for our own ship.

Heather Jamieson -> :: Does all she can in AM and heads down to the probes themselves ::

STSF_BluRox -> (yea, found my skull and crossbones dice! And the pig!)

Jameson Bardolph -> Always good news anyhow, sir. ::deadpan, eyes narrowing in slight amusement::

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> (Sounds bad LO )

Ayumu Kasuga -> :o

Apollo -> (( ::hides:: ))

August Jax Robinson -> {{Bad for Canada!!}}

Ayumu Kasuga -> ((Very bad for Canada!))

Tory Knight -> ::looking at the frequencies of the EM radiation from the planetary field, lips pursed::

Heather Jamieson -> :: Enters engineering on her way to the probe launch control room ::

STSF_BluRox -> (the instruments of your destruction have been posted on my facebook page!)

Heather Jamieson -> :: Typing on her PADD as she walked ::

Heather Jamieson -> (( Heather has at least -100 to peril ))

Heather Jamieson -> (( or it is plus? ))

STSF_BluRox -> (Has anyone actualy volunteered for this away mission yet?)

Jameson Bardolph -> ((have we been asked yet? :P ))

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::hasn’t been asked, doesn’t need to be, he'll do anything::

Heather Jamieson -> (( I'll go ))

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> So we should taken some security, engineering and science. Mr Link - who from your department?

Apollo -> ::Rian:: Lieutenant Knight would be the perfect fit, I believe. She is rather accomplished in the physics area...

Apollo -> ::And that meant no EV suit for him!::

Jameson Bardolph -> ((i'm in, anyhow))

LtCdrJohnson -> ((I'm in))

LtCdrJohnson -> ::to Jax:: I'll come and help you...

August Jax Robinson -> you are the best

August Jax Robinson -> ::heads to the repair area::

 

Heather Jamieson -> :: Passes August :: "Hello.."

August Jax Robinson -> ::trips Heather::

LtCdrJohnson -> ::follows Jax::

Heather Jamieson -> :: falls on her face, PADD goes flying down ::

LtCdrJohnson -> ::to DeAngelo:: Hold down the fort here Bryan

LtCdrJohnson -> LtJGDeAngelo>::to Heather:: Ma'am...are you OK?? ::offers her a hand up as he picks up her flying PADD::

STSF_BluRox -> Well, at least this should be a quick easy mission for headquarters, before we go dea with a lot of bickering. I hate diplomatic bickering

LtCdrJohnson -> ::to Jax:: How is that husband of yours anyway?

Apollo -> What are they even fighting over?

August Jax Robinson -> He will be fine once I make him cry like a little girl

Apollo -> Tell me it's not some thousand year old fight over a pot.

Capt Rian Kwai -> +Robinson+ I need volunteers from your department to serve on an away team.

Heather Jamieson -> :: Looks down to see a spot of blood on the ground :: "My nose is bleeding. Are you okay Commander Robinson?"

August Jax Robinson -> oh I am going to be ensign Jamieson

August Jax Robinson -> ::Steps on the lift with Dave::

Heather Jamieson -> to DeA: "Thank you Lt. Oh, it's Lt. Junior Grade."

LtCmdrRobinson -> +Kwai+ Outstanding. Bardolph and I are on the way.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> ::looking up at his name, pops to his feet accordingly::

Heather Jamieson -> :: watches the lift close ::

LtCmdrRobinson -> (my darling wife can be such a ......)

Apollo -> +Tory+ Apollo to Knight...

Tory Knight -> +Apollo+ Knight here.

Capt Rian Kwai -> +Jax+ Chief, I need a volunteer or two for an away mission. Got anyone in mind?

Heather Jamieson -> :: Holding her nose shut ::

LtCdrJohnson -> LtJGDeAngelo>::to Heather:: Here..let me get a dermal regenerator for that...and it's Bryan...Bryan DeAngelo

Apollo -> +Knight+ I know you wanted to get some work done on your disertation, but I am going to have to ask you to be on the AT instead.

August Jax Robinson -> +Kwai+ Johnson and Myself can be ready in 5

LtCmdrRobinson -> Looks like we got another away mission already.

Capt Rian Kwai -> +Jax+ Great, Kwai out.

 

 

STSF_BluRox -> and......

 

STSF_BluRox -> PAUSE SIM

STSF_BluRox -> PAUSE SIM

STSF_BluRox -> PAUSE SIM

 

STSF_BluRox -> Great sim all, and next week, we'll head on down to take a look at what's causing these issues, while those on the ship will scan from above

August Jax Robinson -> can I blow up Will this time?

Apollo -> ::looks for places to hide::

LtCmdrRobinson -> No.

LtCmdrRobinson -> Double No.

Jameson Bardolph -> ((I keep reading that wrong out of the corner of my eye...))

LtCmdrRobinson -> I wouldnt be saying no, Bardolph..if that were the case.

Apollo -> lord

August Jax Robinson -> Bad Barcode

STSF_BluRox -> Ok, crew dismissed
