Keb: ::finishes docking procedures at Starbase 214:: Captain...we're here.
McFly: ::sigh of relief:: Why is it that felt like my first docking?
Kansas Kenickie: because is was your first solo one
Keb: ::smiles at McFly:: Well, it went pretty smoothly.
Erich Jaenke: :: Stands up from the engineering console next to the core ::
Keb: Don't think she even got a scratch on her.
McFly: yes, yes it did
McFly: ((ugh, it's so hard to think when you have "why should I worry" from Oliver and Company stuck in your head))
Kansas Kenickie: ::Takes a deep breath::
Keb: ((that movie is srsly underrated))
Kansas Kenickie: Shore Leave Captain, or is this a working vacation
McFly: Well, I have a meeting with the Consul General and we need to resupply but if people have the time let them play
McFly: ::hands KK a padd:: I also put in for some new recruits to fill in some holes. I hope they get approved. That's your department now. ::cheeky smile::
Erich Jaenke: :: Getting the ship hooked up to the station ::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Hits the big Mic button::+ Once your resupplies are in their proper homes you may par-take in some shore leave+
BrenFaliver: ((Im delayed sorry))
Keb: ::fist pump::
Kansas Kenickie: you are the one sitting in a room with old people... have fun
Erich Jaenke: :: Making sure the shuttle bay can accept cargo running ::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Looks over supply orders and personnel needed:: Lovely
Erich Jaenke: :: Typing commands into his console while the other engineers shuffle around ::
McFly: I'm expecting to get chewed out but, ya know. Whatev
Kansas Kenickie: I don't have to go... do I ?
McFly: Nope, it's just my ass getting bit.
Kansas Kenickie: ::Smiles:: I will be right here
Keb: ::satisfied that the ship is safely in dock, closes her eyes and thinks to Erich: Shore leave! Wanna see if they've got some unique holonovels?::
McFly: Ensigneer> ::complains under his breath about Chief Jaenke sitting a pile of corn nuts and drinking beer while he forces everyone else to work through text messages.::
McFly: ::sighs:: don't I have some captainy thing to do or something?
Erich Jaenke: I am a Betazoid :: to that engineer, smiles :: If you wish to say something by all means we can talk about my drinking problem.
Kansas Kenickie: nope, you get to sitting in meetings and pretend I am awesome and qualified for this
Erich Jaenke: :: Gets up and goes to scan the warp core assembly ::
Kansas Kenickie: I like to hide from the Brass in there
McFly: ::sighs again:: I don't know how i"m going to be able to lie for two hours. ::winks at KK::
Kansas Kenickie: Annoying Karl> she means she doesn't want to shoot them on "accident"
Erich Jaenke: Bah, micro fractures... :: Looks down at his padd ::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Watches the Bridge clear out::
McFly: Ensigneer> ::in the cargo bay; looks up and around thinking Jaenke was in there; panic subsides as he doesn't see him anywhere::
Erich Jaenke: :: Nods to another engineer before he leaves main engineering ::
Keb: ::heading off the bridge to find Erich for some holodeck fantasies::
Erich Jaenke: (is that what we decided to call them?)
McFly: ::mcfly gets up and shuffles his feet as he walks to the TL; mutters under his breath the whole time::
McFly: ((no that's just my name for him; didn't want to reuse A9's departmentguy names.  ))
Kansas Kenickie: Man up McFly
McFly: You man up!
Kansas Kenickie: I thought you were a bad boy, not s sissy
Kansas Kenickie: *a
Callista Tyrel: ( ::observes an old droid offer peanuts:: Thank you. )
BrenFaliver: ((Aaaand back, catching up))
Erich Jaenke: :: Finds the lift :: Holodeck 2
Kansas Kenickie: ::opens up the arm-rest to see if Sovak left anything behind::
McFly: The consul general is a butt! Crap! ::looks around:: You don't think she heard me do you?
Kansas Kenickie: yes'
McFly: ::sighs and lets the TL doors close::
Erich Jaenke: :: Approaches the Holodeck 2 door ::
Erich Jaenke: :: Taps commands on the access panel and enters the holodeck ::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Looks over the list of supplies:: (m) we need some real Alcohol on this boat
McFly: Brutus> ::hoping to make a good impression to maybe get the CSEC position; finishes any overdue paper work; sets weapons maintenance and guard schedules; cleans the main security toilet::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Looks over her shoulder at Karl:: how about a milk run for me?
McFly: ::doesn't take the transporter, instead walks the entire length from the ship, through the docking port and through the station::
BrenFaliver: ::Asks the computer, nicely, to download a variety of scientific data that is not urgent enough to merit transmission but will roundout the libraries::
Kansas Kenickie: Karl> Same place? ::Sighs::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Tosses Karl a Data crystal:: it's an even trade, don't let him talk you down
McFly: ::arrives at a non-discript office; checks in with the clerk and waits in a chair::
Kansas Kenickie: Karl> ::Goes off on his quest::
Gila Orrak: :: Meanwhile, at the far end of the station, sits a stranger in a strange land, out of her element. She raised eyebrows as personnel caught a glimpse of someone clearly non-Starfleet and worse...non-Federation ::
BrenFaliver: ::Says outloud to no one in particular:: Is it shore leave if I stay on the Manticore while everyone leaves? I could get so much research done...
Keb: ::shows up at Holodeck 2 but it won't let her enter::
Keb: ::pokes at the panel:: I know someone's inside. That's why I'm here.
Gila Orrak: :: A beep on her wrist communicator caught her attention, drawing out a long sigh ::
Erich Jaenke: :: The holodeck door opens to blackness ::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Looks around the empty Bridge::
McFly: ::mcfly hears his name called and is guided into a small empty office::
Gila Orrak: :: Gila takes a drink from her canar, not real of course, how could or why would it be? ::
McFly: Clerk> Please have a seat and they'll be with you in a moment ::walks out::
Erich Jaenke: :: A wind blows across the holodeck, but without any source ::
McFly: ::looks around the room waiting for the chewing:: ((to be continued in a log))
Kansas Kenickie: :::gets up and loosens the bolts on Keb's seat::
Kansas Kenickie: ::hums and gives it a good wiggle::
Erich Jaenke: (Computer. remind me that KK likes cold showers)
Keb: ::enters at last, and looks for Erich::
Kansas Kenickie: ::doesn't shower:::
Erich Jaenke: :: His voice bellows :: WHO DARES ENTERS THE VOID?
Kansas Kenickie: ::returns to the CO's seat::
Gila Orrak: :: Gila supposed someone would come to get her eventually. She wondered how closely security was to follow her. With the way Starfleet operations, anyone could be watching on their behalf ::
Keb: ::looks around, jumping but then laughing to herself:: Me!
Kansas Kenickie: ::Looks over the security Cam at the airlock, balances her knife on the back of her hand::
Gila Orrak: :: The view out the station was pleasantly empty devoid of anything other than the distant points of light. Their lack of twinkle was disconcerting. Sure thing of being on a station rather than a planet ::
Erich Jaenke: :: Voice :: WHO BE YOU?
Kansas Kenickie: ::catches knife, heads to the lift:: get me to the airlock
BrenFaliver: ((You two are into some weird stuff, Erich))
McFly: ((you should read some of my and KK's old logs))
Erich Jaenke: :: Voice :: YOU MUST CHALLENGE THE KEEPER OF THE VOID... DEFEND YOURSELF, IF YOU ARE ABLE ::
Kansas Kenickie: (( you think that is weird ::Glances at McFly:: that is a Sunday afternoon))
Erich Jaenke: :: A weapon of ancient design appears before Keb, lying on the ground waiting ::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Steps off the lift and walks to the airlock::
BrenFaliver: ((::Notes to himself that Keb and Erich are apparently into some weird Klingon beat-your-mate-before-you-mate business::))
Keb: ::grins and grabs the weapon, ready to play:: I've been dealing with KK all this time--I think I can handle a bit of shadow.
Kansas Kenickie: ::Stands on the steps, glares::
McFly: OpsGuy> ::sitting at a bar with his cousin SciGuy; takes a sip; winces as it burns on the way down:: I'm telling you, with the Admiral here I'm going to get transferred. McFly hates me. I didn't even do anything to him. He just hates me. I'm pretty sure Kenickie feels the same.
Gila Orrak: :: Gila reviewed her alien tablet for her orders, the script a comfort to her. Learning Federation standard had been a challenge ::
Erich Jaenke: :: Out of nowhere a long staff sweeps Keb off her feet ::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Looks over her PADD, and the list of new personnel:: I am the welcome wagon....
Keb: ::tumbles to the ground and then scrambles back to her feet as quickly as she can:: Hey, that was cheating! ::pokes out with the weapon into the darkness, but carefully::
Kansas Kenickie: (m) I miss killing people
Erich Jaenke: :: A dimly glowing form peer out two meters in front of her, now behind her :: AHHH.... :: the form floats around Keb ::
Erich Jaenke: :: The staff goes for her midsection ::
Keb: ::smiles softly, adjusting her stance to face the form, turning as it does, and jumping back just at the right moment::
McFly: SciGuy> ::pats Ops on the back and takes a drink:: Well if you didn't suck at your job so badly. ::shruggs::
Erich Jaenke: :: The staff spins from end to end, with a strike coming down for her head ::
McFly: OpsGuy> ::slams fist on the counter and yells:: I don't suck! ::realizes he's making a scene and quiets down:: I don't suck, I don't know why people keep saying that. And you're family, you're supposed to be on my side.
Gila Orrak: :: How was she chosen for this mission? The Science Council assured her this was only a temporary assignment, but she had heard that before ::
Erich Jaenke: (Is this Space Olive Garden?)
BrenFaliver: ::Replicates some hot chicken ramen, sits back at his console reading the latest journals::
Kansas Kenickie: ::looks across the walkway, notices a few people in the lounge. Tucks back into the airlock more::
McFly: SciGuy> I am on your side... Just don't suck.
McFly: OpsGuy> ::sighs; takes a drink::
Erich Jaenke: :: Floats around her again ::

Kansas Kenickie: ::Paused::
Erich Jaenke: Floats like a wraith
McFly: KK, comments?
BrenFaliver: ::pauses::
Kansas Kenickie: if it snows on friday I will blame all of your
Kansas Kenickie: *you
McFly: I would like some snow
Erich Jaenke: That was fun
Callista Tyrel: Oh my. I think Ops guy needs a counselor.
Kansas Kenickie: and Keb needs a better weapon to win that game
BrenFaliver: He has one, his cousin SciGuy. Not all advice is pleasant  
McFly: well if he didn't SUCK SO BAD, he wouldn't have to worry about his job!
Keb: Yeah, probably. But it's in the next level.
Keb: It hardly ever snows in Houston
Keb: and when it does, it melts as soon as day breaks
Keb: ...it was 72 degrees today.
Kansas Kenickie: back space backspace A B A B, cheat codes
McFly: Alright so TBS will be 1 day and it will give us time to get resettled and get our new mission.
McFly: So some good news, Callista is an actual human that will be joining the sim!
Kansas Kenickie: ::Clapps:: I didn't shot anyone!!
Kansas Kenickie: Yaaaa!! Welcome, I don't shoot people
McFly: She'll be joining Engineering so Erich doesn't have to be all alone down there.
BrenFaliver: Woo!
BrenFaliver: Does she know what she's getting into...?
Erich Jaenke: Callista.... you say
McFly: However, Keb might want to keep an eye on her, cause you know, close workmates and all.
McFly: just putting that out there  
Kansas Kenickie: Super Fun Awesome Time Bren
Callista Tyrel: Lol Thank you. I will try to....write a small bio this week.
Erich Jaenke: Let me show you my engines...
Kansas Kenickie: we don't know anything about that kinda stuff McFly
Callista Tyrel: Just an ensign with a repair kit.  
Keb: Yay welcome! Also ::possessively grabs Erich and smooches::
McFly: Also Gila is one of the new NPC's that will be joining. Just a reminder if anyone wants to make an NPC to help fill out the roster just let me know. Doesn't have to be this week or anything either. But if you've been wanted to try a different department this is a great way to do so
McFly: ::winks at KK::
McFly: ok then, any comments or questions?
BrenFaliver: AH, cool
BrenFaliver: I was VERY confused where Gila was coming from
McFly: she was coming from your dreams, bren
BrenFaliver: That makes a lot of sense
Callista Tyrel: You guys ship on this ship I see.
Kansas Kenickie: I will protect you
Gila Orrak: Should have said where I was
Erich Jaenke: We ship it out to the ship
Callista Tyrel: Thanks
McFly: Well if there's nothing else... I failed to find dismissing pictures on our break. I might do it later. Or i might be lazy and not do it at all.  
Gila Orrak: I'm out o' here. Night
McFly: DISMISSED!
Keb: Gnight all  
Kansas Kenickie: Good nite Peeps >O_.
BrenFaliver: Goodnight and Good week
Erich Jaenke: Night all and Keb
Callista Tyrel: Goodnight.
McFly: later dudes
Erich Jaenke: Welcome Callista
