= /\ = 16 June 2388 - Stardate 2388.168 = /\ =

The time is 0800 hours (8:00 am) Aegis Local.
Science is examining a very strange plant brought aboard by a trader.
USS Rodman, USS Chi Song, and USS Agincourt are still missing in Nebula 231.
A Starfleet Runabout is entering the nebula to search for them.
Pakleds are still taking inventory of the station. Security is watching.
Commander Korjata is still dealing with his stint among the Yith.
Otherwise, situation normal.

Tae'Lynn Dran: ::applying difference acids to the plant::
Scott Coleridge: ::on the CnC, coordinating with security on this Pakled presence::
mimipavilion: ::in medical, going over something::
Chirakis: ::in her office, mulling over the nebula situation:::
Sierra Robinson: :: reading the night shift's briefing file ::
Fletcher Jackson: :::aux OPS, working on other stuff::
Jylliene: ::compiling requests and such that the Pakleds have made that have come through Ops, just to keep a general handle on what they're up to. Or to try to, anyhow::
Tarisa: ::Enters the lab, heading over to Dran and the plant.:: Any success?
Fletcher Jackson: :::glance at Jylliene, thinking "please don't hand it to me, please not me, not me:::
Jylliene: ::getting that "don't call on me" vibe from Fletcher::
Fletcher Jackson: ::hates being low man on the totem pole:::
Tae'Lynn Dran: I think I've found something of interest. It absorbs certain acids.
Sierra Robinson: Peter> :: waving his sign in front of the Pakled Pop Up Store advertising "Pristine Pakled Products" ::
Chirakis: ::swivels her office chair to talk to Admiral Solokov:::
Tae'Lynn Dran: Which is quite interesting and somewhat terrifying.
Tarisa: It absorbs them? ::Worried look.:: It is practically invincible, and it eats acid?
Tae'Lynn Dran: I honestly do not know at this point.
Scott Coleridge: ::wanders over to Jylliene:: Are we still receiving an abnormal volume of requests from Pakleds?
Chirakis: ::listens to Solokov, receives his latest information, and the admiral blanks the screen:::
Tae'Lynn Dran: ::adjusts a scanner:: Having tried several compounds I am now going to see if we can catch the absorption on sensors.
Dacia Sandero: ::checking up on the patients in the sickbay:::
Alexis McFarland: ::once she's ready, she heads to the kitchen to eat some breakfast Mr. Moht made::
Tarisa: Miana> ::Finishes getting ready for school, then heads out into the hall to wait for Alexis.::
Sierra Robinson: :: walks over to the main 3D holographic display of Aegis to get additional updates on station performance ::
Chirakis: ::pages through the notifications, puts them aside, then exits her office::
Tae'Lynn Dran: ::siphons out a small amount of acid from the beaker places a drop on the plant::
Alexis McFarland: ::checks the door cam:: Might as well come in Miana. I'm still having my breakfast. ::Mr. Moht opens the door and gestures for Miana to come in::
Tarisa: ::Watches for a hopeful result.::
Jylliene: They've tapered off. A little. For them.
Nijil tr'Korjata: :: Makes his way to engineering ::
Jylliene: Still unusually high compared to any other single group.
Dacia Sandero: ::prescribes a hypo to a lieutenant in science::
Tae'Lynn Dran: ::places another drop:::
Tarisa: Miana> ::Smiles as she skips into the quarters.:: Hiya!
Tae'Lynn Dran: ::glancing at the results::
Nijil tr'Korjata: :: Enters ::
Scott Coleridge: Good. I think they're slowing down thanks to the heightened security presence.
Scott Coleridge: I'm starting to get a picture in my head of what's going on but I'm... missing something.
Alexis McFarland: Hi! Morning Miana ::hugs:: Did you have your breakfast too? ::eating some bacon and eggs::
Scott Coleridge: It's like they think they can buy portions of the station? But that doesn't make sense, not even a Pakled is that... dim.
Tae'Lynn Dran: ::and another drop::
Tarisa: Miana> ::Nods.:: It was different than what I was used to, but it was good.
Sierra Robinson: :: PADD in hand jotting down notes while looking at the display ::
Dacia Sandero: Ok. ::glad it's relatively quiet again, works on some of her other stuff she had on the back-burner::
Tae'Lynn Dran: I think we have something useful. Far from an answer but something to build on.
Nijil tr'Korjata: Robinson? :: he asks to the rabble of engineering tinkering about the deck ::
Chirakis: ::notes Scott talking to Jyl, but does not intervene:::
Chirakis: ::she's had her fill of Pakleds::::
Sierra Robinson: Good Morning Sir, Have a good night's sleep?
Tae'Lynn Dran: ::running the results through the analyzer.::
Nijil tr'Korjata: I dreamed... a lot.
Jylliene: Annisha brought home something from one of their shops. They're apparently doing a good trade in trinkets.
Sierra Robinson: Peter > :: begins discussing things with a group of Pakleds in front of the Pakled Pop Up Store ::
Chirakis: :::passing by Cayne, she asks for a SITREP:::
Alexis McFarland: That's nice. Mr. Moht sometimes makes me different stuff too, but it's always good. ::finishes her breakfast. Mr. Moht comes and takes away her dishes::
Tarisa: ::Curious.:: Oh?
Scott Coleridge: They can keep trading trinkets as much as they like. I just don't like them disrupting our departments.
Tae'Lynn Dran: ::blank stare at the monitor::
Annisha: Situation outside the station is very calm... which I don't like.
Tae'Lynn Dran: That can't be right.
Chirakis: ::and as he works, she stares at the main tactical screen above:::
Sierra Robinson: :: chuckles :: Hopefully no nightmares. :: approaches NIjil with the overnight shift report PADD :: Here you go sir.
Jylliene: ::ponders::
Tarisa: Miana> ::Nods.:: We had Earth food. From a place called Kor...Korea, I think? It was seaweed soup, rice, and grilled ribs. It was weird cause there was nothing sweet.
Alexis McFarland: Ooh, sounds nice! I should try that one day!
Tae'Lynn Dran: I thought we were picking up cells of the plant interacting with the acid. The computer says the acid simply became part of the plant.
Tarisa: Miana> Oh! There was something really spicy too...Kim...um...I can not remember. But it was spicy!
Tae'Lynn Dran: Let me try another scan setting.
Tarisa: :;Glances between Dran and the plant.:: What is not right?
Tae'Lynn Dran: :::adjusts the scanner and adds another drop of acid::
Alexis McFarland: Ah.. kimchi. I heard of that, always wanted to try it.
Tae'Lynn Dran: ::watching the readings::
Jylliene: Hm.
Chirakis: :::still staring at the overhead tactical screen, she asks again:::: Commander Cayne, report.
Alexis McFarland: We should look for a Korean restaurant one day, I think I remember seeing a few in the food court.
Jylliene: ::enters a few commands in her console, asking for a general energy scan of the area of the commerce deck the Pakleds' booth(s) is/are::
Sierra Robinson: The main thing was a few maintenance issues on the Commerce Level with the new vendors. I guess they requested more ODN ports and additional EPS grid interfaces.
Tae'Lynn Dran: Computer ::nervous giggle::: erect a level 1 containment field around the scanning dais.
Fletcher Jackson: ::assisting Jyl with the requisitions so she can work on her Pakled problem:::
Scott Coleridge: I have security chasing them away from most of the non-commerce levels.
Sierra Robinson: Peter> :: bows to his fellow Pakleds and reaches for a PADD-like device and taps away ::
Jylliene: I'm probably just a bit paranoid...
Jylliene: ::waiting for the computer's results::
Tarisa: Miana> ::Excited:: Yes! That sounds fun!
Tae'Lynn Dran: I hope I am misreading this. It's saying the plant isn't absorbing the acid but rearranging it's atomic structure.
Tarisa: ::Frowns.:: I do not like the sound of that.
Jylliene: ((That's when you hand the plant a lab coat and goggles and bring it on staff))
Alexis McFarland: Mmm. It will. ::smiles:: Let's go find Annisha. Almost time to head to class.
Sierra Robinson: :: walks over to the main Stations EPS grid display to perform a diagnostic. ::
mimipavilion: ::puts down the final PADD and blinks::
Jylliene: ::ponders::
Tae'Lynn Dran: Yes, a typical house plant is not capable of atomic fission.
Jylliene: ::repeats the scan, increasing the sensitivity::
mimipavilion: ::leaves her office to find Dacia::
Chirakis: :::after receiving Cayne's information, she moves on to check a few other things:::
Tae'Lynn Dran: Please review these readings in case I've simply lost all sense of reality.
Tarisa: Miana> ::Nods as she goes with Alexis.::
Sierra Robinson: Peter> :: notes a Pakled hurriedly approach him with starts discussing something with him in an animated Pakled fashion ::
Tarisa: ::Looking carefully over the readings. Her frown says it all.::
Dacia Sandero: ::reading up on some medical reports as she sips a cup of tea in her office::
mimipavilion: ::finds Dacia:: Hey I'm going to the CnC for a while.
Alexis McFarland: ::heads to the lift with Miana::
Dacia Sandero: Oh, okay.
Fletcher Jackson: ::really getting the hang of things::
Jylliene: ::sighs::
mimipavilion: ::leaves via tl ordering it to the CnC::
Tarisa: You are not wrong...
Chirakis: :::stops and does a gentle turn toward Jylliene:::
mimipavilion: ::arrives on CnC a short time later::
Sierra Robinson: :: The diagnostic complete she is satisfied with systems all in the green , her attention turns to the ODN diagnostic ::
Tae'Lynn Dran: That just can't be. How does it generate the energy? What does it do with the resulting energy? Biological cold fusion?
Tae'Lynn Dran: ::more nervous giggle::
Jylliene: Okay, switch tactic..
Jylliene: ::has the computer repeat the scan, but this time on their quarters, knowing Annisha brought home at least one thing from that booth::
Tarisa: I do not have an answer to that. I am almost afraid to find an answer at this point.
Sierra Robinson: Peter> :: consoles his fellow Pakled and hands him a trinket with a smile, the other Pakled apparently feeling better departs the store front ::
mimipavilion: ::steps out of the way to observe::
Nijil tr'Korjata: :: Feels out of it. Why can't he snap back to work? Was his time there too long? ::
Chirakis: ::Leaning against the window sill of the commerce deck checking her security team as they watch the Pakleds:::
Sierra Robinson: Sir?
Tarisa: Miana> :;Arrives at Annisha's home with Alexis. Rings the chime.::
Alexis McFarland: ::Smiles::
Sierra Robinson: Sorry you looked lost in thought... my bad.
Jylliene: (mumbled) PleasetellmeI'mjustparanoid, pleasetellmeI'mjustparanoid, pleasetellmeI'mjustparanoid
Sierra Robinson: Peter> :: turns his sign over, which reveals another ....sign...saying "Peter Pakled's Pop Up Store now OPEN "
Tae'Lynn Dran: ::blink:: Computer, bring atmospheric pressure inside the containment field to 0 and set gravity to 0.
Jylliene: ::watching the console readouts, repeats the scan::
Fletcher Jackson: ::sitting next to Jyl, he glances over:: Problem, ma'am?
Scott Coleridge: ::Jylliene:: I something the matter?
Tae'Lynn Dran: I don't want to give it any more fuel, just in case it has a critical mass.
mimipavilion: ::looks at Jylliene::
Alexis McFarland: Jolan good morning.
Jylliene: Just doing some energy scans. Bad feeling. Hoping it's nothing.
Tarisa: ::Nods in agreement.::
Fletcher Jackson: :::deep breath before going back to work:::
Tarisa: Miana> Hmm... ::Rings again.:: Annisha!
Nijil tr'Korjata: What? Yes. I am. :: shakes his head :: E pei o le miti lea
Sierra Robinson: Oooh..what does that mean in Yith?
Tae'Lynn Dran: I am going to proceed with a simple optical investigation. Wonder if we have a microscope in storage.
Nijil tr'Korjata: Oh, it's like this is the dream.
Tarisa: You could replicate one if there is not one available.
Chirakis: :::turns to see Dr Pavilion and nods:::
mimipavilion: ::nods to Chirakis::
Nijil tr'Korjata: :: uses both hands at the console ::
Tae'Lynn Dran: If I have to. Replicators are such a waste of energy though.
Sierra Robinson: It's okay sir. I don't mind. I think it is important to document all your experiences with the Yith, we may not have the opportunity of meeting them again.
Annisha: :: opens :: Yeah?
Tarisa: Miana> Yay! ::Hugs::
Alexis McFarland: Hey Annisha. ::hugs her as well::
Chirakis: ::contemplating the three ships stuck in the nebula, she steps next to Mimi:::
mimipavilion: Hello Captain
Chirakis: Hello, Doctor. A word about nebulae.
Tae'Lynn Dran: ::looking through the lab catalogs::
Chirakis: What damage can a nebula do to an ordinary starship?
Chirakis: That is... the outskirts of a nebula, not very powerful.
Annisha: Oh... the hugger, or is that Alexis?
Sierra Robinson: Pakled Child> :: walks up to Peter and hands him a drink which makes Peter smile in return, giving the child a wave...and a Story PADD...the child scampers off to another Pakled nearby ::
Tae'Lynn Dran: I should have figured when it absorbed that radiation burst in the other experiment that we'd never get a sensor reading on it. It just slurps up the scanning field.
Alexis McFarland: Both?
Tarisa: Miana> ::Grins as her poofy tail swishes.:: Time for school.
Nijil tr'Korjata: Oh they will be back.
Alexis McFarland: But only for another week or two.
Tae'Lynn Dran: Ah, here we go.
Nijil tr'Korjata: I may have made that possible.
mimipavilion: Depends on the nebulae, but it could be radiation, a storm, etc.
Tarisa: I see. So essentially any form of energy used on it.
Tae'Lynn Dran: Storage room 2, cabinet A, third shelf.
Sierra Robinson: I wonder when? Another reason why I think...in my delusional LtJg state of mind ...if an effort is made to learn all we can from your experience, we can make them feel more welcome when they do.
Tae'Lynn Dran: Yes. I may even shield it from all visible light when not examining it.
Chirakis: Um...:::nods::: And a science ship would not necessarily be damaged by it, correct? That is, if the ship was along the outskirts of the nebula?
Nijil tr'Korjata: It's not something I have said to anyone, but I figure you are a neutral party.
Jylliene: ((we can get some balloons and some Welcome! banners too))
Scott Coleridge: ::having heard nothing more alarming from Jylliene, he returns to his station to look at some updates::
mimipavilion: ::nods::
Tarisa: ::Nods.:: A reasonable precaution.
Nijil tr'Korjata: They have an interesting 'when'
Tae'Lynn Dran: We should probably give security a warning to be on the lookout for any more of these that make it to the commerce levels. Have to catch them of visual inspections, sensors will never catch one.
Cdr Wyatt Cayne: :: Working on crew concerns, something he did not enjoy ::
Sierra Robinson: Prani did not strike me as the conquering type sir. :: returns her gaze to the ODN diagnostic screen :: And having those beverages in the replicators would be another welcoming touch. Sort of like greeting someone with a good cup of coffee!
Jylliene: Commander?
Jylliene: ::to Coleridge::
Scott Coleridge: ::Jylliene:: yes?
Tarisa: ::Nods. She grabs a PADD and begins to write up a warning for Security to keep an eye out. Includes what specs we can provide. Then sends the report.:: Done.
Alexis McFarland: ::in class by now, writing down some notes::
Annisha: :: to her friends :: Where we wreaking today?
Jylliene: I'm getting some energy readings from the Pakled's booth.
Alexis McFarland: Wherever you want to.
Tarisa: Miana> I heard a rumor the Pakleds are taking over the station.
Jylliene: I can send the results over to your console, so you can take a peek from an engineering perspective.
Alexis McFarland: I saw a lot of them milling around the food court
Tarisa: Miana> Maybe there is a mystery happening.
Nijil tr'Korjata: Prani was well-liked from my experiences on their world. I was not here though. I could not speak the language well at first.
Scott Coleridge: ::Jylliene:: Yes, please.
Jylliene: ::patching them over::
Nijil tr'Korjata: I think Muuhi changed me though, or my mind. She tinkers like an engineer, except it's with the mind.
mimipavilion: ::Chirakis, softly:: Plans ma'am
Annisha: :: Working and a bit perturbed ::
Chirakis: ::blinks, turns::: Excuse me, Doctor. To what does that refer?
Sierra Robinson: Well it is not like Dr. Muuhi implanted a chip in your brain..right?
mimipavilion: Nothing ma'am
Nijil tr'Korjata: What of these Pakled?
Nijil tr'Korjata: No chip. Imagine if you could rewrite the mind's base code...
Scott Coleridge: ::looks at the results:: Oh hmm um
mimipavilion: I take it we have a serious Pakled problem.
Chirakis: ::deep breath:: Indeed we do.
Nijil tr'Korjata: O le lasi lea e tatau ona e mataala iai.
Sierra Robinson: Well , one Store owner put in a request for ODN and better EPS Access. Another Booth owner requested a high capacity Power Port...
Nijil tr'Korjata: High power?
Sierra Robinson: Which the duty engineer said No.
Sierra Robinson: Denied the request.

Chirakis: Thank you
Chirakis: Well done, all.
Chirakis: TBS will be zero ( 0 ) - same time, same station.
Chirakis: Comments for the crew, Commander?
Scott Coleridge: Nope
Chirakis: Questions or comments from the crew?
Sierra Robinson: fine here sir
Chirakis: Very well...
Chirakis: Crew dismissed. Be well. Be Safe. Don’t forget your towel.
