USS Republic Simlog R101018

[KhreRiovtRex 0]

STSF_BluRox -> USS Republic Mission Briefing 101018 The Republic continues to look for options on it’s best course towards finding any help, rescue or safe haven in light of the loss of the star drive section of the ship. Several warp capable shuttles and a modified runabout have been sent out already to go contact help and hopefully be able to reach a Federation ship to request a tow back for the saucer. Meanwhile, repairs of the saucer continue, while a Klingon doctor will be making an attempt to extract the alien lifeform from Fiona in time to save her life.

STSF_BluRox -> :Wait Rian....you'd better let me do that, I don't want to implicate you in anything that might get you in trouble..there are....some outstanding issues with doing this

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::sure is glad she isn't Fiona right now::

 

Fiona Weber -> ::is, unfortunately, Fiona right now::

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> we are? ::puts his pants back on::

 

Jameson Bardolph -> ::watching as the Klingon doctor preps for surgery amid a horde of Federation medics::

 

Heather Jamieson -> :: on the bridge, feels glued to her seat ::

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::Taps console::

 

Joy -> :: To heather :: Are we there yet?

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> How much more trouble can I get into at this point? We've blown up half our ship, Errrika

 

STSF_BluRox -> You have not been....privy to a lot of the information regarding Holly......

 

Heather Jamieson -> "Seeing as how at our current speed you would be the only one left alive.. no."

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Klingon Qel ::flourishing scalpel:: And so begins the final battle.

 

STSF_BluRox -> some might say, there is a bit of a bounty on her to get her out of our systems. If anyone were to find out we had her out, and then restored

her?

 

Joy -> Oh, well.

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::getting dressed::

 

Heather Jamieson -> to Joy: "Is the saucer section salvageable?"

 

STSF_BluRox -> But then there was that trial, were she was ruled sentient. and I was allowed to iver her exc

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Who's to say she didn't put a latent back up somewhere on the saucer section systems.

 

STSF_BluRox -> fix that...I was allowed to give her asylum on the Republic

 

August Jax Robinson -> We are in the Sauces section

 

STSF_BluRox -> True, I just wanted you to be aware

 

Heather Jamieson -> salsa section? That would explain the music

 

Joy -> Salvagable, yes. Though the question is whether they would send a stardrive section out to fetch us.

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> I need some dipping sauce for my nachos

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Thwapps Will's butt::

 

STSF_BluRox -> We're in the saucer, it's taken extensive damage, we're going nowhere fast, but still alive, Saucer is going to need extensive repairs which will also mean LOTs of extravehicular maintenance

 

Fiona Weber -> ::unfortunately, conscious::

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::giving the Spawn and the Clone a bath:: What?

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Klingon Qel ::begins the first incision along the line of Fiona's spine, with a deft, deliberate swipe::

 

Heather Jamieson -> "Engineering should check the couplings.. Why am I playing the engineer all of the sudden." :: as she looks at an engineering display ::

 

Joy -> Because there isn't a lot of need for scientists just now?

 

August Jax Robinson -> So .... which is which?

 

Heather Jamieson -> "I should get some training from engineering, I could have been more effective manning science and engineering."

 

Joy -> I won't object. How are you at EVA?

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::shrugs:: Does it matter?

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> ::gives up the ghost and lets Blu handle the chips, fall where they may, and flops down in the nearby guest chair, suddenly feeling the fatigue of the whole ordeal creeping up on her:: You really want her running around here when we're in this state?

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel The first shots are fired! Qapla! ::opening up Fiona's back and a passageway down to the thing clinging to her spine, with a deftness incongruous to his exuberant narration::

 

August Jax Robinson -> Well... we have to pick another name, shouldn't the first one keep his name?

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> And that better be the 'nice' version of her. I don't want to be hanging upside down in a Jeffries tube while we're trying to do repairs.

 

Heather Jamieson -> "Only the basics I'm afraid."

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> I suppose so.

 

Joy -> I have a feeling there will be considerable need for outside work. At one time I was quite deft... I was a stardancer for a bit.

 

Fiona Weber -> ::is so glad that feeling is restricted to the hideous pressure and poking sensations::

 

Heather Jamieson -> "A what now?"

 

STSF_BluRox -> Yes....she saved this part didn't she? She saved us all from the attackers, and...she got that wormhole sealed

 

Joy -> I might still be good enough to be useful.

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> At least they get along

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel This p'tahk of an invasive will not land you in Sto-Vo-Kor today. ::clearly meant to be reassuring:: ::sort of::

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> Stardancer, eh?

 

August Jax Robinson -> Everyone gets along with themselves

 

Heather Jamieson -> "The experience was very dizzying."

 

STSF_BluRox -> I owe her this much, she had planned to work

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> I bet you wouldn’t ::smirks::

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> She's going to be impossible to live with if you tell her that her plan succeeded you know. Her ego is going to short out about half the systems. :: smirking::

 

Fiona Weber -> ::grunts by meaning of a response::

 

STSF_BluRox -> with us now, I believe she's reformed since she was ruled as sentient. Well, not totally...I do have a question for her about something she said. Something that she was going to fake a breach, to make sure Kania went through the portal

 

Joy -> :: Nods to Ayumu :: It's a long story. If you help a semi-sentient impersonation of a great dancer become a fully sentient impersonation of a great dancer... one can end up learning to dance.

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> Ooh, nice.

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::dries them off:: I'm not sure what to do about the name thing.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::cleaves the flesh down to the ribcage; notes the shape of the creature clinging inside her organs:: Excellent. Now we have him.

 

STSF_BluRox -> If she engineered that, and then got damaged....I might just break these chips

 

Jameson Bardolph -> ::scoots forward a little bit to peer at the work being done:: m Gross.

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Starts dressing one::

 

STSF_BluRox -> though the end results are what really matter I suppose

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Sighs:: we are going to need more clothes ::THwapps Will::

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Why don't you install her in a contained system so you can see how much damage, if there is any, before you turn her loose on the rest of us again.

 

Joy -> One of us is generally partnering with him even today, but I am overdue to merge data bases with him, and he is somewhat past his zero G phase.

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> If only we had the technology to replicate new clothes.....oh wait we DO! ::grins::

 

Joy -> At any rate, I've done a good deal of EVA work, though more fancy than practical.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::gives Jameson a look of death, evidently affronted:: The most honorable battlefield there is, Lieutenant -- and one without which none of us would stand here. One which this Oest abomination dishonors by his presence!

 

August Jax Robinson -> This is a mess

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::prods at it with his scalpel::

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::Scans::

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Sighs:: I can't believe my life

 

STSF_BluRox -> Yea, we had done that when we had the main core in the star drive section, we don’t have that level of power here to hold her such

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> I know, it’s great isn’t it?

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Does it do any harm in waiting then until we're in a better condition to accommodate her?

 

STSF_BluRox -> ::sighs:: We're in quite the mess this time

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Stands up:: can you bring them to daycare? I need to check on the ship.

 

STSF_BluRox -> I think we're going to need her to help stabilize the systems here. I took a quick look at the reports. We have some major damage, and we'll need everyone helping with repairs

 

Fiona Weber -> How big is it? Can you get it out? ::turns head, neck getting stiff::

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> Whats left of it.

 

Heather Jamieson -> "If they ask me to do some EVA work I will do it of course." :: sighs ::

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> Yeah I can handle them I think

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Smiles:: Good luck with that

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel It is big enough for its purposes. The size of the palm of one's hand. It has sealed itself to the primary thoracic vertebrae; the adhesive can, I think, be clipped free. With luck, it will even be alive for you to take your revenge!

 

STSF_BluRox -> No, I think we're all in here....

 

Joy -> :: Nods :: It may happen. Would you be better in a work bee?

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Gets while the getting is good::

 

STSF_BluRox -> ::opens the panel on the table and starts plugging the ships into the computer there::

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> I'm sorry, I'm not her biggest fan. I think she's the got the impulse control of a two year old and yet has access to the most critical and significant systems on this ship. She goes into a tantrum and we're in deeper trouble than we are now.

 

Heather Jamieson -> "I could probably do that if needed."

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Not that I think we can't get much deeper, but still.

 

Joy -> I feel almost like a camp councilor. If one isn't good at cooking, one gathers firewood.

 

STSF_BluRox -> I'll agree, she's had her days, and the time she tried to kill us all to sell the ship, not her best moment, but she was under alien control.

 

Joy -> But at least we aren't in enforced wilderness survival mode this time.

 

STSF_BluRox -> Alot of her frustration as been how she was treated. She actually for some time was a very good counselor.

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Steps onto the lift:: Bridge

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::organises repairs to various parts of the ship::

 

Jameson Bardolph -> ::gives Qel an odd look:: Bedside manner must be a strange business in the Klingon Empire.

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> ::shrugs vaguely:: I steer clear of her.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::has no idea what Jameson is talking about::

 

STSF_BluRox -> She may be able to help us in that she'll be able to monitor problems faster, and try to compensate

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Steps onto the Bridge::

 

STSF_BluRox -> Well, anyway, I wanted to warn you.

 

Joy -> :: glances up briefly as August steps in ::

 

STSF_BluRox -> Now you were mentioning, that you sent out a few warp capable ships to try to get help

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Walks over to Joy:: where is everyone?

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::slides scalpel directly under the grasp of the parasite and begins delicately detaching it from its perch on the spinal column::

 

STSF_BluRox -> Do you have an ETA on when we might be able to expect them to return? 3 - 4 months?

 

Heather Jamieson -> :: waves a hand to August ::

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Pokes the engineering console to look at readings, winces::

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::takes the boys to daycare::

 

August Jax Robinson -> Gunner's :::Runs down the hall screaming::

 

Heather Jamieson -> "I have been manning the engineering station. Sorry if I missed anything."

 

STSF_BluRox -> Now, I suppose we should get out there and make sure thinks are being handled

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> I didn't give them an ETA for return. Told them to go until they found help or they heard back from us that help had arrived. I've got their

destinations. As long as they don't divert from the courses set, they should encounter some help and/or we can find them later.

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Looks at Heather:: Thank you Jamieson.... no I was wincing at the lack of warp core... and engineering...and my office with my Favorite mug, chair, office, squeaky duck and tools

 

STSF_BluRox -> Alright, let's check with Joy and see if she's found someplace that might be a good destination for us to move the saucer to, in case we develop issues

 

Parasite ::does not take kindly to the extraction attempts, clings sharply to the spinal cord::

 

Fiona Weber -> ::feels that::::screeches::

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::runs after them screaming::

 

August Jax Robinson -> Gunner 1 ::Cackles::

 

STSF_BluRox -> Any word on Fiona?

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Aye. She had two possiblities earlier. I need to see what she has narrowed it down to.

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Sits next to JOy::: I have a question, you might know the answers, since you know almost everything

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::swears in Klingon and snaps at one of the nearby medics:: A stronger anaesthetic. NOW.

 

STSF_BluRox -> Alright, you go check with her, I'll run back down to Medical to see if they've been able to do anything for Fiona

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> No word yet. Although if you were down in medical where you were supposed to be ::gives her a meaningful glance:: Where you said you'd go when we're done...you'd know more.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> What happened?

 

Joy -> You may ask. I fear you underestimate my knowledge.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel It is...a vigorous little p'tahk.

 

Joy -> :: Turns to Jax ::

 

August Jax Robinson -> What are the Laws on Clones?

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::scoops them up and deposits them into daycare:: There, they are your problem now.

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Do me a favor. Stay in medical until they clear you, please?

 

STSF_BluRox -> ::flattens ears at Kwai:: You're as bad as the last one

 

Joy -> Laws on clones? That would depend on the world, in the Federation... But out here it would be Generic Federation pattern.

 

STSF_BluRox -> it's too noisy there, I'd be better off here where it's quiet

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> No. I'm worse. I'm not afraid of your claws. And I'm cranky. Lack of sleep tends to do that to me. Now go.,

 

Joy -> You are concerned about the extra Gunner?

 

August Jax Robinson -> I am. I don't know what the law is and what can happen.

 

Fiona Weber -> Can you cut it apart?

 

Medics ::looks really worried about this Klingon::

 

STSF_BluRox -> ::growls a bit to herself::

 

Joy -> I assume you were not responsible for it's creation? If not, you have no responsibilities. But on the other hand, he is of your genetic make up?

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Listen, you pass out in here or something happens, we're not going to hear it. I'm not going to worring about what you're up to when I've got a ship to worry about. Go to medical. Get cleared. Then get back up here so I can get a break.

 

August Jax Robinson -> yes

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> dont tell her THAT, now Ill have to do all the parenting

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::not too concerned:: If you are no longer worried about having it alive, then I can do many things, Doctor. ::barks at the medics:: I asked for more anesthetic; do you always stand around like you injected it into yourselves by accident?!

 

Joy -> The cleanest way to make everything quite solid would be to adopt him.

 

Fiona Weber -> ::whimpers:: Are you even ::pant:: making any progress?

 

Medics ::hypo Fiona again::

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel Absolutely. ::with utter confidence::

 

Joy -> There is nothing that can force you to do so, but given the genetics, if you wish to do so I'm sure it would be allowed.

 

STSF_BluRox -> Fine...

 

Fiona Weber -> Alll right. Fine. Keep going. ::rests head on pillow again:: I am never having another one.

 

STSF_BluRox -> ::turns and stalks out past her onto the bridge, and towards the waiting lift::

 

Heather Jamieson -> :: speaks up :: "Would it not be like a twin rather than a clone?"

 

Jameson Bardolph -> ::chokes on an inopportunely-timed noise of amusement at Fiona's comment::

 

August Jax Robinson -> well I am just worried that it will cause him trouble once he gets older... the long term damage

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> And don't look at me that way. You don't like it, you shouldn't have put me here in the first place. ::sticks out her tongue, then heads back to the bridge behind her, really gotten a bit onery with the lack of sleep, but in a weirdly sarcastic way::

 

Joy -> Biologicially, yes, he would be in many ways a twin.

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Joy, we have a possible destination yet? ::upon entering the bridge, heads towards the science stations::

 

Joy -> :: Turns to face Kwai, with a nod to Jax ::

 

Heather Jamieson -> :: straightens up ::

 

Joy -> For the saucer? There are a few asteroids within impulse range that might provide useful raw materials for patching.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::flexes his fingers as if in preparation for open combat, lets out a slow, focusing breath, then with a flick of the wrist half-dislodges the thing from its perch::

 

STSF_BluRox -> ::Hopes the rest of the bridge had not heard that last exchange

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Parasite ::emits a strange, very soft but distinct cry somewhat like a child throwing a temper tantrum::Bloody hell.

 

Joy -> There is a Class M 3.5 light years out. A trivial distance if one has warp drive, but it might as well be in another galaxy for an impulse only saucer.

 

Fiona Weber -> ::cringes::

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Raw materials are great, but what about possible assistance? What would be the ETA if we head there?

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel Ah! It feels the keen bite of the true warrior's blade! :: truly delighted and even somewhat inflamed by this noise::

 

Fiona Weber -> ::Come to think of it, Fiona wasn't entirely sure she wanted to know how it got to its current roosting place from where the Oest had first deposited it::

 

STSF_BluRox -> ::exits the lift and heads back to medical::

 

Joy -> We have a likely shipping lane. Moving the saucer? Look. Anything of interest is light years away.

 

Fiona Weber -> ::And if it had burrowed its way out she was literally going back there in a shuttle to kill them all herself.::

 

Joy -> Which means years of travel under impulse.

 

Heather Jamieson -> "About 12 to 14 years."

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::nods::

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Thumps head on her console::

 

Joy -> By that Time I would expect the help Kania is looking for will have arrived.

 

Heather Jamieson -> "However the engines are not rated for continual use."

 

Joy -> We could send shuttles out to sit in the travel lanes.

 

August Jax Robinson -> I can't believe my Engines are gone

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::cant believe his office is gone, and his armory::

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Scans ::register internal bleeding in Fiona's abdomen::

 

Joy -> But moving the saucer? I would wait until one has a good reason to move the saucer.

 

STSF_BluRox -> ::sees one of the Klingon working on Fiona and walks over to where she had ducked out on Bardolph earlier::

 

Jameson Bardolph -> ::seeing Blu come in; straightens:: Admiral.

 

Joy -> :: glances up at the Admiral ::

 

STSF_BluRox -> ::nods:: Bardolph, can you bring me up to date as to what's going on

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> ::mutters under her breath several choice Trill curse words:: We need to get a distress signal out into one of those shipping lanes. And I'm worried that at some point we'll lose raw materials for other basic necessities. What about the last warp capable shuttle?

 

Fiona Weber -> ::trying very, very hard not to sob::

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::barks:: Hypercoagulin! ::or whatever the Klingon word for that would be:: The symbiote begins life nourished in the reproductive system but it has burst through the uterine wall.

 

Heather Jamieson -> :: could not get any straighter, or could she? ::

 

Joy -> The last shuttle could be sent out, or we can drop a distress beacon

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::then, low, so only Fiona can hear:: Your battle is almost won. Breathe steady a moment longer. ::willing her to lay still long enough for the final removal effort::

 

Fiona Weber -> ::is gonna be killin' Oest::

 

Jameson Bardolph -> to Blu ::Uh. Your guess is as good as mine, sir. He's been working the last forty minutes or so.

 

Joy -> The thing one has to note is that any ship that comes would outgun us.

 

Fiona Weber -> ::forces herself to breathe as easily as she can::::focusing all of her anger and pain into the emotion of hate hate hate::::hates Oest, baby Oest, babies, doctors, and pain::

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> So they'd better be a friendly, hmmm?

 

Joy -> Exactly.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::with a quick sharp jerk of scalpel and wrist, slices the symbiote free with a heartily unpleasant and audible rip which just for a moment breaks through all of the anaesthetics::

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Looks at Kwai::

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> I would hope so

 

Joy -> And if you remember our recent history, I'd watch the odds on that.

 

Fiona Weber -> ::screams bloody murder::

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel Qapla! ::pulls the thing free and holds it squirming aloft, then scoots sharply sideways to allow one of the medics to step in his place::

 

Joy -> By sitting quiet, we might have the first ship to arrive be one of ours.

 

STSF_BluRox -> Uhm, when did we pick up a Klingon Qel?

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Can we run that risk though?

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Blu ::sotto voce:: He was with the group that came back with us from the Oest ship...he's seen this stuff before, sir, evidently. Saw them do it to all the women in his crew, and--::breaks off as Fiona screams:: Well...he just did something. ::wince::

 

STSF_BluRox -> Shouldnt she be asleep? The screaming hurting her concussion

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel It is done. ::with great satisfaction::

 

Fiona Weber -> Medics ::hold out a stasis unit a bit smaller than the current Gunners' size::

 

Joy -> Life support seems stable. I cannot see an immediate pressing need to gamble... other than that we might tend to go haywire.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::drops it in and dusts his hands off, then approaches Fiona from the other side:: Now you may yell in peace. The worst is over.

 

Joy -> The most fragile system on board may be the human psychies.

 

STSF_BluRox -> What did he just do to her?

 

Fiona Weber -> ::with great effort, twists head to side:: It's all gone?

 

Heather Jamieson -> to Joy: "Are they sending out another shuttle?"

 

Jameson Bardolph -> to Blu Some kind of parasite hooked to her spine. He's been working on trying to get it free.

 

Joy -> They are considering it, Heather. To sit on a shipping lane is a proposed mission.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel Fiona The parasite, yes. The war is not over but the battle is won.

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> You're telling me. ::catches herself:: Let's send a shuttle out to retrieve what they can raw materials wise from the asteroid field.

 

Fiona Weber -> ::whining:: Can't we finish it later?

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::impatiently to the medics:: Stem the bleeding, I say; it has been in progress for some time now.

 

Heather Jamieson -> "If they need someone at science let me know. No offense intended in leaving you."

 

Fiona Weber -> ::a little less lucid than usual::

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> I'd also like to work on an evacuation plan to that M class planet using the Admiral's yacht. And let's hope we don't need to use it.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel Fiona ::somewhat sardonically amused:: You tell me, doctor...would you leave a burst uterine wall for later?

 

Joy -> That seems plausible, Rian.

 

Fiona Weber -> ::literally whimpers:: I'm going to kill all of them. ::faceplants back onto the pillow::

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Looks back at Kwai:: I have been going over the ship's damage

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Yeah, Jax? How bad is it? Besides the lost star drive.

 

August Jax Robinson -> Well, since we don't know when help will come we are going to have to deal with a few things right away

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::approvingly:: You have spirit in you. You will be all right.

 

Joy -> :: considers the number of crew, and the carry capacity of the yacht. Many trips, but it could be done. ::

 

August Jax Robinson -> and not all are going to be easy, we lost alot of gear, tools and storage with Engineering

 

Joy -> :: Falls silent, letting Jax take the conversation for a bit. ::

 

August Jax Robinson -> We are going to have to a lot of spacewalks if we are going to stay out here for some time ::Small smile::

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Spacewalks are easy enough. Training the crew to do what you need them to do is the harder part.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::steps back to let the medics take over and walks back towards Whiskey and, by extension, Blu::

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> I'd plan that we're going to be staying put for a while. Do what you need to keep us in working condition.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel She will live, I think, assuming your medics are any good. She has suffered considerably but she is a warrior in spirit.

 

August Jax Robinson -> I am not cleared for spacewalks, so it is going to be harder

 

Fiona Weber -> ::starting to sob all quiet into her pillow, almost wishing her little parasite had just killed her::

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> We'll also need to stem the tide of cabin fever with the crew. Keeping busy will help. But there will come a time when that's not enough to keep

their minds off our problems here. Any ideas?

 

Fiona Weber -> Starfleet doctor #21 ::starts the more normal surgery prep::

 

August Jax Robinson -> We can plan group events on the Holodeck I guess

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Yeah, but you can train those you can, and monitor them from our short term shuttles.

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::thinks - waste of power tho::

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Qel ::slight bow to Jameson:: Thank you for allowing me the honor of this battle. Uh. Yeah. No problem. ::glances sideways at Blu::

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> That might take up too much resources...at least until we get ourselves more stable.

 

August Jax Robinson -> I know, but I love spacewalks ::frowns:: Stupid Will

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> yup, all my fault

 

Joy -> I am well EVA trained and rather strong. I might help outside.

 

STSF_BluRox -> ::looks at Bardolph::This is hurting my head a bit

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> I want medical handling the crew moral issue.

 

August Jax Robinson -> We can do Karoke in the Lounge

 

Fiona Weber -> ::very slowly, moves one arm up and under her head, still making a soggy mess of her pillow::

 

Jameson Bardolph -> ::feeling much more relaxed now that the Qel has suggested that Fiona'll be alright:: Blu I imagine someone here could do something for

that too. :: lopsided grin:: Not me, though; I'm just the hired help.

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> So that's repairs, requests for assistance, evacuation plans and crew moral. What else are we missing?

 

August Jax Robinson -> Oh! We can tie Will up and fling toast at him!

 

Heather Jamieson -> :: watches the conversations ::

 

STSF_BluRox -> ::turns to the Doctor::

 

Joy -> Hmm... Holly is missing.

 

STSF_BluRox -> We thank you for your work here, I appreciate you saving the life of my crewman

 

Joy -> Last time we lost a Republic, she was in a back up file. We might be able to find her somewhere.

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> That's been taken care of all ready. She'll be back harassing us at some point.

 

Jameson Bardolph ->::glances at Blu, then retrieves another hypospray full of analgesic and offers it at her silently:: It was my honor...::glances questioningly at

Bardolph::

 

Joy -> But the older the copy we find... Her personality hasn't exactly been consistent.

 

Jameson Bardolph -> Admiral....Admiral.

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> Fling toast at Will. Interesting.

 

Joy -> Ah. Very well.

 

Fiona Weber -> ::falling into a half-sleep, half miserable state of lying there::

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::Smirks at the idea of flinging toast at Will::

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Smiles at Kwai:: yes!

 

STSF_BluRox -> QA TLHO' Qel ::trying to remember her Klingon from when she was a child living in the Embassy with her grandmother::

 

Fiona Weber -> (Either Blu is speaking Klingon or we need to up her hairball med dosage)

 

Joy -> And Jax and Will may want to consider whether they wish to adapt the other Gunner.

 

August Jax Robinson -> We have to pick another name.. ::Sighs:: two names

 

Fiona Weber -> (I say again, Trigger and Gunner)

 

August Jax Robinson -> This is starting to get silly.. I can't have anymore kids! 3 is enough

 

STSF_BluRox -> Chay'ar Y'as ? (how many officers does he have)

 

Jameson Bardolph -> ((Blu, I hate you :P )) ((on the upside i just found a site that tells me how to say "My hovercraft is full of eels" in Klingon))

 

STSF_BluRox -> (what did I do!?)

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> You could always call one of them Bullet, Trigger or Remington, after the gun.

 

Qel> ::looking impressed at Blu's command of the language, rattles off a rapid-fire stream of Klingon explaining that most of his crew, sans the females, is in

the cargo bay::

 

Fiona Weber -> (Or Colt)

August Jax Robinson ->Colt 45

Capt Rian Kwai -> ((Or Gunner and Hunter?))

STSF_BluRox -> ::not even noticing she's been starting to lean a bit to the right, and thinks starting to get a bit....off center::

 

Fiona Weber -> ::lifts, just enough to be intelligible:: For as filthy and loud as babies are, they don't burrow their way out and try to sever your spine.
