USS Republic - February 4 2013

[Capt Rian Kwai 0]

STSF_BluRox -> USS Republic Mission Briefing 51302.04 Having received the Risan authorities aboard the Republic, and letting them question the crew as to what had occurred on the planet below, the crew awaits a final reply from Risa with regards to the incident. Will they recommend charges against the crew for illegally being on planet and endangering their citizens and guests, or will they call for commendations and thanks for a job well done?

 

STSF_BluRox -> BEGIN SIM

STSF_BluRox -> BEGIN SIM

Jameson Bardolph -> ((are we all still in the conference room?))

LtCmdrRobinson -> ((I live in an Amish town in Indiana, does an Amish accent work for you, honey?))

STSF_BluRox -> (Would you like to be?)

Ayumu Kasuga -> ( I live in Canada. T

Ayumu Kasuga -> they say I’m slow eh)

Tory Knight -> (( Houston. ))

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::in the Conference Room?::

Christina_Nickles -> :: sitting in the conference room looking down after seeing herself and the other two green gals get pointed at, wishing she could hide under the table::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::is still in the conference room, because he doesn’t have anything better to do::

Jameson Bardolph -> ((Blu -- I can't say I really have an emotional investment either way :P ))

STSF_BluRox -> (ok, for lack of an answer...you are still all in the conference room, )

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::used to being green by now -- it is what it is::

STSF_BluRox -> (lol)

LtCdrJohnson -> ::In the conference room, paying close attention to what is said, since he was in the engine room for most of it::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::still sitting in the conference room with Tory and Cardboard!Tisa, waiting for the verdict::

STSF_BluRox -> ::watches the door close behind the Risan Officials::

August Jax Robinson -> {{are you Amish??}}

LtCmdrRobinson -> ((no sweetie))

STSF_BluRox -> I thought that went very well....we'll have to see how they deliberate after hearing out statements....

Capt Rian Kwai -> ::leaning back in her chair, trying not to look to relieved that the prime minister left::

Heather Jamieson -> :: Waiting in the conference room, thoughts off in another place ::

Christina_Nickles -> :: takes a deep breath seeing them close the door::

LtCmdrRobinson -> Admiral, may I just say that on behalf of myself and the rest of the crew: Best. Vacation. Ever.

Jameson Bardolph -> ::chuckles::

August Jax Robinson -> ::Shakes head::

Christina_Nickles -> ::to Ayumu and Heather:: I hope they don’t pin us for anything.

Jameson Bardolph -> ::to the group at large, dryly:: Do the hotel reservations last any longer?

Tory Knight -> (( I keep hearing Dash from The Incredibles say that, Will... ))

 

Heather Jamieson -> :: Smiles at Robinson ::

STSF_BluRox -> ::smiles at Will:: Well...it wasn't supposed to quiet turn out the way it did, but....I have to level with you.....that was the entire reason I had set up this little covert, spy, and recon mission....

Capt Rian Kwai -> You would say that. Anytime things blow you, you're happy.

August Jax Robinson -> for him'?

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::looks at August:: You had fun, I know it.

LtCdrJohnson -> ::to Blu:: And the person I...transported? What was his role in all this?

STSF_BluRox -> Not exactly just for him; however, some things went very far astray

Tory Knight -> ::back to her "normal" self, is still sitting and watching mostly::

STSF_BluRox -> Hang on, let's get things caught up and I’ll explain......

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::quiets down::

LtCdrJohnson -> ::nods::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::leans his elbows on the table::

Christina_Nickles -> :: remains quiet::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::glances sideways at Tory; didn't really know her before so is still getting used to the non-Leia face::

STSF_BluRox -> Basically, as you all know, you're not entirely welcome here on Risa, however, I have been looking for an excuse to try and change the Risan's position on this

Capt Rian Kwai -> ::think she'd better not have set this fiasco of a weapons deal up to do so::

STSF_BluRox -> So, I figured if you could do a quiet, covert mission, that would send you off in different directions, but in the end, find ourselves here on Risa. I did not however, ever in my wildest dreams, suspect that a few things would happen...such as.....

LtCdrJohnson -> ::remembering the incident on the beach with those funny looking birds that got them in trouble the last time they visited::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ((birds was elsewhere)

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::also remembers that, glances around::

Jameson Bardolph -> ((yeah, birds wasn't Risa))

STSF_BluRox -> Several of my crew turning themselves Green, passing themselves off as Orions, and then....producing a.....a.... that tape I saw earlier with the Ferengi:: shudders::

August Jax Robinson -> ::Sits back::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::hadn't heard this part of the story yet; makes a sudden muffled choking noise, and almost strains a muscle in his cheek trying to keep a straight face::

Heather Jamieson -> :: Looks in Barcode's direction ::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::rubs chin::

Christina_Nickles -> :: sighs and lowers her head once again hiding her face in her hand::

Capt Rian Kwai -> ::just shakes her head::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::coughs::

Tory Knight -> ::simply takes a sip from her teacup, expression neutral, but a mischievous spark in her eyes::

 

STSF_BluRox -> Then while I figured that someone would somehow mess up and get themselves caught somewhere, little did I imagine that it would be one of you, spilling their guts and every detail to the local authorities.... ::aside to Rian:: Again....someone green...

Capt Rian Kwai -> ::mutters under her breath::

STSF_BluRox -> So, going back to the start....Did anyone have any real difficulty determining that they go to Minos Korva?

Christina_Nickles -> ::doesnt move from her position::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::Glancing over at Heather and Christina, still not sure which of the two that was::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::shakes head::

Jameson Bardolph -> ((gah, making us remember all the way back to the beginning of the mission))

Jameson Bardolph -> ::shakes head as well::

STSF_BluRox -> Were the hints to the archeology and finding the statues difficult to figoure out the clues? Please...speak up...

Heather Jamieson -> :: Never got to that part Heather thought ::

Tory Knight -> If you weren't on top of your mythology, it may have been a bit... tedious.

STSF_BluRox -> ::dying to see if one of the green women decide to open up about that video, looks at Tory:: I could see that .

Jameson Bardolph -> That one took a bit of luck and a bit of thought. ::slowly, after a short pause::

STSF_BluRox -> Anyone else?

August Jax Robinson -> how did you get green?

LtCmdrRobinson -> I broke the statues...on accident. Worked out well though

Christina_Nickles -> ::to embarrassed to even lift her face::

Ayumu Kasuga -> It did definitely take a lot of thought... though I must admit, getting to Minos Korva was much harder for us than determining we had to go there in the 1st place

Jameson Bardolph -> ::can't help a low snort at Jax's directness::

Heather Jamieson -> An injection that altered our color a the skin level. A medical tattoo of sorts.

Ayumu Kasuga -> Well... a group of men offered to take us to Minos Korva, spiked our drinks... we all pass out in the bar, and the next thing we remember, we come to in a dark room in the freighter, green.

August Jax Robinson -> So .... this is forever!

Heather Jamieson -> Their women had taken to a mutual sickness...and no, not forever.

Christina_Nickles -> ::looks up in shock:: OH I hope NOT!!

Ayumu Kasuga -> It was green pigment. I'm told it'll only last a few weeks

Heather Jamieson -> :: Holds up her hand to Christina :: No.

Jameson Bardolph -> : sympathetic wince::

Capt Rian Kwai -> ::rubbing her fore head::

Ayumu Kasuga -> Though, that was a few weeks ago.

Heather Jamieson -> Continual injections would be required to keep us green.

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::nods:: By then, we had little choice.

Jameson Bardolph -> ::sotto voce to Tory:: (m) I liked our disguises better, I think.

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> They dyed themselves green. I wore a Hawaiian shirt. I like my way better.

Heather Jamieson -> But we lack the pheromones of true Orion women.

Ayumu Kasuga -> Yea, we were cheap knockoffs

Jameson Bardolph -> ((gmta will :P ))

Christina_Nickles -> :: covers her face once more slightly shaking her head::

Heather Jamieson -> That only lasted a few hours ::

Capt Rian Kwai -> (m)what happened to the days of wearing a wig and using an accent?

STSF_BluRox -> Now, in the end, let me just say, it worked!! We had set up for you to all arrive here at Risa, under cover so that you didn't get pressured by the government officials as to why you were here. I had set up an auction of antique Hor'gahn statues, but I'm still trying to figure out just how that got sidetracked and you now were invited to a weapons auction!!?

Heather Jamieson -> :: Looks to Kasuga :: Of a sort yes.

STSF_BluRox -> ::jaw drops hearing the story of the green women::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::Doesn't know the answer to that as she didn't get an invite::

STSF_BluRox -> I had only planned on getting you all here to the beach, where you could have a nice relaxing vacation without the authorities knowing....Ok....so this weapons' auction...I did not know you all had been invited, or at least some of you that is...

Ayumu Kasuga -> Well, at least I still managed to do that. Green women don't look out of place in Risa.

Heather Jamieson -> :: Heather looked at her green hands, a bit lighter perhaps, but the change could be so slow she'd not notice ::

August Jax Robinson -> so weapons were a bonus?

LtCdrJohnson -> ::to Blu:: You do know that when we go on vacation...even if we don't know it's a vacation...we find a way to get in trouble...Must be like a, I dunno, mechanism...or something

Tory Knight -> Are we ever *really* invited...? ::arching a brow::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::looks at Dave::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::leaning forward:: For our part, we fell in with a couple of civilians, one of whom was doing research on local transmissions. Seemed odd enough we thought we'd better look into it.

STSF_BluRox -> I was hoping, just hoping you could just be quiet and reserved....just for once...

Heather Jamieson -> :: Thinks of her flight of the shuttle down to Risa ::

STSF_BluRox -> Well, to go back to Dave's questions....shortly after we had gotten word that you all were safely on Risa…with the exception of Heather who was with us..... WE had received word from Admiral Calvert, informing us of a plot to not only crash this weapons auction he had word off, but that one of our own former crew was somehow involved...

Capt Rian Kwai -> Civilians doing wha--?

Heather Jamieson -> :: Thought of something to tell Will when she got the chance ::

Christina_Nickles -> ::listens::

STSF_BluRox -> :: stops and looks at Kwai and back over at Bardolph::

Jameson Bardolph -> ((they were civilians, right?))

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::rubs chin again:: Hmm

STSF_BluRox -> I hope you did not put them into immediate danger!

Jameson Bardolph -> ::shakes head at Blu:: No, ma'am. They were heading off to check it out...we just followed along.

STSF_BluRox -> You must remember, we're here to stay low, to be helpful...

Capt Rian Kwai -> ((No, they weren't. But then again, I don't know if they introduced themselves as Fleet either))

Jameson Bardolph -> ((whoops))

Jameson Bardolph -> ((well, magic edit my previous sentence then :D ))

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::Team Robinson stayed low the whole time.::

August Jax Robinson -> I think we went unnoticed..

STSF_BluRox -> Anyway, back to Dave, the Admiral had informed us of the potential for the weapons auction, and he had one of his own make a sensor sweep, and confirm the weapons, and when the time came, he'd assist us by taking a shuttle down so we did not just that, with a bit of a delay..

LtCdrJohnson -> ::nods::

STSF_BluRox -> August, I'd say you must have been quiet earlier, but when I arrived, you're team was rather in the thick of the commotion

Heather Jamieson -> :: And August's fist in Heather's face. She rubbed her eye upon the reminder. ::

STSF_BluRox -> I'd like Rian to address something if she would....

August Jax Robinson -> I like to get in the thick of things

Christina_Nickles -> ::looks up to the Captain to see what she has to say::

Capt Rian Kwai -> Address what?

STSF_BluRox -> As a suggestion....of how to handle oneself when being questioned.....(and after we had told you to disavow any knowledge of the Republic or it's location) We received word, that we were outright out'd

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::Glances over at Kwai::

August Jax Robinson -> by who!!

Heather Jamieson -> Me Jax! It was me...

Capt Rian Kwai -> Let's just say, at this point I have a good idea of which of you need adult supervision on away missions.

STSF_BluRox -> ::checking padd to see if a decision had been made by the Prime Minister and staff yet:: and who needs extra away team training

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::gee, I wonder who that could be?::

Christina_Nickles -> ::looks down again after having to paint the brig for her own goofup::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::looks at Heather::

August Jax Robinson -> ::Jumps back a little at Heather's outburst, scoots away from her::

Heather Jamieson -> You may hate me a little more if you like. I know you already do.

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::facepalms::

Capt Rian Kwai -> We're on a covert operation. Covert sometimes means being a bit more stealthy, a bit more mysterious........and a lot less spilling the beans. The art of deception. On the other hand, at least we know which one of you are more truthful than others. Those who can't lie. It'll make it easier for us to know you. And know when your noses is growing......

 

Jameson Bardolph -> ::blows air out through his nose in a silent chuckle::

STSF_BluRox -> As for those that are a bit 'off-color' I've spoken to the doctor to see if she could whip something up to help that color...fade a bit more quickly....

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::yay!::

Tory Knight -> ::thinking that perhaps a little more training may be necessary::

Christina_Nickles -> ::looks up to the Admiral with hope in her eyes, waiting to hear the answer::

Capt Rian Kwai -> The green is just.....too much for lunch.

August Jax Robinson -> I donno... maybe we should Leave them Green sir

Heather Jamieson -> :: With her outburst, she never looked at Jax, but it felt good in a bad sort of way ::

STSF_BluRox -> As for covert as well, it seems that some of you were working at trying to be covert, however, little did you know, that you had paired up with other real covert SF agents... ::glances slowly over towards the Bardolph group::

Christina_Nickles -> ::Looks to Jax then back to the Admiral::

STSF_BluRox -> And...let me just say this...I never want to see Jax running away from me with a nuclear warhead in her possession.... while firing a gun into the crowd.....

Tory Knight -> ::is non-plussed, having worked out that at least one of their number was Intel... or closely connected therein::

Capt Rian Kwai -> You'd rather she ran *to* you with one?

STSF_BluRox -> No..., regardless.... ::looks at incoming message on the Padd::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::gives Blu a puzzled look at the covert agents comment::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::surprised by that::

August Jax Robinson -> my aim was good... and the Bomb was fiiiiine

 

August Jax Robinson -> Plus I did all of that in a dress

Ayumu Kasuga -> Oooooh!

Christina_Nickles -> It was hard for me to keep up with you Sir.

Christina_Nickles -> ::to Jax::

STSF_BluRox -> Looks like we have an incoming message from Admiral Calvert........

August Jax Robinson -> after having a few kids, most things are a breeze

Christina_Nickles -> :: turns her attention back to Admiral BluRox::

Ayumu Kasuga -> Oh?

STSF_BluRox -> ::notes that even the Admiral is getting some lag::

STSF_BluRox -> (and a java issue!)

Jameson Bardolph -> ((heh))

Heather Jamieson -> (Due to a garbled subspace transmission...)

Ayumu Kasuga -> (Buffering...)

STSF_BluRox -> (java...now I need more coffee)

Randy Calvert -> +Republic+ To the crew of the USS Republic... I have received a message from the Risian government regarding your recent actions in helping to prevent a large explosion from occurring that would have taken a number of lives.

Christina_Nickles -> (( ::Hands Blu a cup of Java (_)? ))

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::listens to the Admiral's transmission::

Randy Calvert -> +Republic+ Your swift actions are being held in the highest regard by the people of the planet and their leadership has asked that their gratitude be passed along to the entire crew.

Christina_Nickles -> ::looks to the screen as the Admiral speaks::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::perks up::

Christina_Nickles -> ::sighs a sigh of relief::

Heather Jamieson -> :: Nicest thing she's heard all day ::

Randy Calvert -> +Republic+ The Risian leadership has invited the crew to join them for dinner in your honor as well. As you know, the Republic had previously not been viewed in the most positive light in that part of space. I'm pleased to inform you the .... restrictions .... previously in place for your crew have been hereby lifted.

Heather Jamieson -> :: Wonders if there will be dancing afterward ::

STSF_BluRox -> ::grins at Rian and the crew:: Well done everyone....

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::Risa just lost all of its appeal if he doesn’t have to make fake IDs and hide from security while on vacation::

Randy Calvert -> +Republic+ Please enjoy yourselves at the celebration that is to be held, but I remind you all not to ruin your newly regained privileges.

Christina_Nickles -> :: slightly smiles for the first time in a while::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::looks at Will and Jax::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::slow grin drifts across his face as he realized they're being thrown a party::

Randy Calvert -> +Republic+ Finally... Admiral... I need to see you as soon as possible. I realize you would enjoy the trip to the surface as well, but there are other matters that I need your attention towards.

Christina_Nickles -> :: smile fades hearing that last part having a feeling her group may STILL Be in trouble::

 

Randy Calvert -> +Republic+ Once again, congratulations to you all and have a fantastic evening. You've earned it.

STSF_BluRox -> +Calvert+ Understood Admiral. I assume you're still just a few parsecs away? I'll take my ship and will attend to you as soon as possible sir. And thank you sir for acknowledging the crew. BluRox out.

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::wouldn't be surprised if the Risians wanted them to be tonight's entertainment. They've seen the videos too::

STSF_BluRox -> :turns to look at the crew: Rian, I assume you can oversee this while I attend to the Admiral?

Capt Rian Kwai -> Certainly

STSF_BluRox -> Thank you. ::stands: :Enjoy yourselves, but not too much, am I understood? ::nods and turns to walk to her ship::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::to Heather and Christina:: Perhaps we should go see the doctor first, eh?

STSF_BluRox -> PAUSE SIM

STSF_BluRox -> PAUSE SIM

 

Christina_Nickles -> ::Paused::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::Paused::

Randy Calvert -> ((Please join them for dinner... there are some that enjoy a healthy Starfleet officer served with ketchup!))

Heather Jamieson -> :: Paused ::

August Jax Robinson -> ::Paused::

Ayumu Kasuga -> (ketchup chips!)

Heather Jamieson -> Don't forget your greens!

Tory Knight -> (( Ah, yes... Canada. Home of really weird chip flavors... ))

Jameson Bardolph -> :P

Ayumu Kasuga -> lol

STSF_BluRox -> Thank you for your patience.....just wanted to wrap that up

August Jax Robinson -> I must be off, I am more then half a sleeps

STSF_BluRox -> And on that note...you all have a great week, I've got to get off and drive home so I can drive back to the airport tomorrow

STSF_BluRox -> and I need to let the Admiral go sleep

August Jax Robinson -> have a good Trip Blu

STSF_BluRox -> Thanks again Admiral for stopping in!

Ayumu Kasuga -> Have a good trip

STSF_BluRox -> Thanks August!

Ayumu Kasuga -> Goodnight folks!

STSF_BluRox -> I may be a bit last next week, flight due back in late

STSF_BluRox -> Crew dismissed!
