Erich Jaenke: What kind of facility is this Commander Farrington?
Annika Sorenson: ::on the bridge, looking at the view screen from her science console:: Oooh.
Callista Tyrel: :: getting ready for another excursion in her quarters ::
Gila Orrak: :: Checking in on the CO and XO again ::
Cmdr JFarrington: ::turns to Erich:: No one else knows about it as far as I know. Uninhabited. Small animals, nothing dangerous.
Amanda Davis PhD: :::grabs her gear, especially her swimsuit::
McFly: ::sitting up in sick bay; wearing clothes with an actual back to them this time; looks at Gilla:: Am I well?... No wait, let me rephrase... Am I si... no longer needing to be in sickbay?
Erich Jaenke: Uninhabited? Surely this is not naturally occurring.
Kansas Kenickie: ::Tries to clean herself up in the sink and touch up her hair::
Callista Tyrel: Computer , can you tell me any information on our destination, mainly...do I need to replicate snowshoes....or Sun Block? :: not sure if the computer will have anything on file ::
Cmdr JFarrington: :::checking with the helmsman::: Yes, naturally occurring.
Kansas Kenickie: ::Evil eyes Gila::
Gila Orrak: I can't do anything to you in here without people knowing...err, you should be fine. Unless you are feeling up to an implant.
McFly: ::raises eyebrow:: What kind of implant?
McFly: ((impant sounds like something you'd get on Risa ))
Kansas Kenickie: an implant ::Tisks:: Typical
Gila Orrak: Oh, did I say implant? Perhaps another time.
Gila Orrak: Trusted Cardassian technology for centuries.
McFly: ::furrows brow:: tease
Cmdr JFarrington: ::notes the helmsman is not happy staying behind, but he'll get his chance:::
Gila Orrak: You may both leave sickbay. Call me if anything changes.
Annika Sorenson: ::back in her quarters, changing into some loose comfortable shirt and shorts and sandals, applies on some sunscreen and bug repellent::
Kansas Kenickie: No please tell us of your brain smashing technology.
Gila Orrak: It has not smashed for a very long time. We have come a long way in our extraction techniques.
Gila Orrak: :: putting away some of her medical devices. Putting new devices into her pack ::
Amanda Davis PhD: :::feeling strange, going down to an uninhabited asteroid that even has a waterfall, grass, and flowers::::
McFly: Will do Doc. ::slides off the biobed and heads for the door; grabs KK around the waist and pulls her with him::
Erich Jaenke: Well, perhaps I can use some non-holographic environment
Callista Tyrel: :: into her standard uniform she packs everything..which is not much into her utility bag. ..and her trusty tricorder ::
Callista Tyrel: Okay...off to wherever...
Cmdr JFarrington: ::is not going to tell them how she came upon this asteroid because it's too special:::
Callista Tyrel: :: exits quarters to TR ::
McFly: ((good thing we can't hear your thoughts with a tease like that))
Gila Orrak: :: Places the last item in her pack ::
Cmdr JFarrington: (Heh)
Erich Jaenke: :: Enters the lift :: Sickbay.
McFly: ::walks down the hall with KK:: I read a couple of padds while I laid there to catch up on what I missed. Commander Farrington is back? How'd that happen?
Amanda Davis PhD: :::exiting her quarters and moving toward the lift:::
Annika Sorenson: ::grabs her holocam and sunglasses and heads to the TL::
Kansas Kenickie: Right place right time.
Callista Tyrel: :: arrives at TR room waiting for with her over the shoulder tote ::
Cmdr JFarrington: ::packing a bag of medical gear, just in case someone slips:::
McFly: ::walks into TL with KK and inputs the crew deck::
Annika Sorenson: ::she arrives at the TR::
Kansas Kenickie: It did show me that I am an awful XO.
Callista Tyrel: Hi Annika.
Amanda Davis PhD: :::enters the TR::: Hello, everyone. This is going to be interesting.
Kansas Kenickie: I wasn't trained for it.
Erich Jaenke: :: Runs into the Doctor :: Oof!
Annika Sorenson: Oh hey Callista. Back for take two of our vacation.
McFly: For what, running the ship without me?
Annika Sorenson: I guess?
Gila Orrak: Ahh! Careful Commander. :: clutching her pack ::
Kansas Kenickie: pretty much
Cmdr JFarrington: :::exits the lift and enters TR:::
Erich Jaenke: Are you going to the...surface too?
Gila Orrak: Unless I get run over on my way to the transporter, or are we taking a shuttle?
Cmdr JFarrington: I have to warn you... the water is cold.
Erich Jaenke: Transporter I have been told.
Callista Tyrel: Yes. :: a short smile :: Note Big tote....:: points to her large bag :: I don't know a thing about where we are going so..I figured..take everything
Kansas Kenickie: ::Wraps her arm around him:: I am sorry I'm not better at all this
McFly: I'm sure it was fine. I know there were plenty of times Sovak disappeared on me. It was a little overwhelming but you get the hang of it.
Erich Jaenke: We should buddy up, as they say.
Annika Sorenson: I hope it's not too heavy for you.
Gila Orrak: :: blinks :: Really?
McFly: ::hugs her tight:: We're security grunts. Neither of us was really trained for command.
Amanda Davis PhD: :::waiting to TR down:::
Erich Jaenke: You are the only one that dispenses my medication.
Cmdr JFarrington: ::::trying not to toss Erich a grin:::
Callista Tyrel: Oh engineers have to haul stuff occasionally.
Gila Orrak: Oh, well I don't have any. Besides, you need to control your ability.
Kansas Kenickie: ::hugs him back::: I wish I could see myself the way you do... I only see my failures.
Gila Orrak: :: She gestures in the direction of TR1 ::
Cmdr JFarrington: :::waits::::
McFly: Most people usually do. Just have to learn to deal with them and grow from them.
Erich Jaenke: Who knows, perhaps this is some kind of sentient lifeform our sensors can't detect.
Erich Jaenke: :: Enter the TR ::
Callista Tyrel: Well I have one sweatshirt from school...hope that does it!
McFly: ::arrives on deck; takes KK by the hand and walks to their quarters::
Annika Sorenson: Yeah, we science people do too. Hope so too.
Gila Orrak: I'd rather not have that happen.
Erich Jaenke: :: Steps on the pad :: I have no idea where at this place we are beaming.
Kansas Kenickie: I'm not used to failing, I shoot failure in the face and more on.
Amanda Davis PhD: ::steps onto the pad::
Annika Sorenson: ::Steps onto the pad as well::
Erich Jaenke: Our group to beam down...seemingly.
Cmdr JFarrington: :::steps up, checking her knife and boots:::
Callista Tyrel: :: on pad ::
Callista Tyrel: :: looks at the commander's boots and...hopes the regulation ones will do..::
Annika Sorenson: ::not even wearing boots::
Cmdr JFarrington: :::TL person::: You have the coordinates.
McFly: whelp, sometimes failure likes to shoot back. You just give it the middle finger and try it again.
McFly: ::enters quarters and heads to the closet to get out a fresh uniform:: Will be nice to wear real clothes again.
Callista Tyrel: ( our captain's attire is truly unreal! )
Kansas Kenickie: ((hey! no looking!))
Kansas Kenickie: Are we going down to that green nightmare below?
Cmdr JFarrington: Lt Beamer> Stand by... beaming. :::beams whoever is with them:::
Callista Tyrel: :: energizes ::
Amanda Davis PhD: :::beams:::
Kansas Kenickie: ::opens her messy closet ::: because I could go for a swim in non-simulated water.
Cmdr JFarrington: @ :::arrives next to the waterfall:::
Amanda Davis PhD: @ :::mouth drops open:: Oh, my. It's beautiful.
Kansas Kenickie: I know everyone say there is no difference but I can feel it
Erich Jaenke: @ Hmm
Cmdr JFarrington: @ :::checking the area:: Just mind where you sit. Some of the plants are prickly.
Gila Orrak: @ We are not in Cardassia any more.
Amanda Davis PhD: @ Oh, I will look. But this is a beautiful place.
Callista Tyrel: @ :: looks around impressed :: Wow...artificial construct or natural?
Erich Jaenke: @ We weren't there before.
Callista Tyrel: :: thinks cactus like back home ::
Annika Sorenson: @ ::looks around::: Wow ::takes some scans with her tricorder::
Cmdr JFarrington: @ Natural.
McFly: ((I'm still a security grunt at heart, I always go it commando))
Kansas Kenickie: ((::PPurrrs::))
Amanda Davis PhD: @ :::looks to Jami::: However did you find this place, Commander?
Annika Sorenson: @ Yeah, very interesting. All this in an asteroid. I wonder what's swimming in these waters.
Cmdr JFarrington: @ ::slight grin::: If I told you I'd have to kill you.
McFly: There's a green somthin-somthin down there? Guess I have more padds to read. ::groans::
Amanda Davis PhD: @ Oh. Well, then. I'll just... look around I guess.
Callista Tyrel: @ :: notes Annika is probably in her element with the aquatic life ::
Cmdr JFarrington: @ Wise choice.
Kansas Kenickie: Don’t bother... nothing of import happened
Gila Orrak: :: Holds onto Erich's arm, protest or not ::
Callista Tyrel: @ Gila are you being silly?
Erich Jaenke: @ Uhm..
Kansas Kenickie: ::says in a lying tone to her voice::
Cmdr JFarrington: @ :::checks out the water::: Yes, it's cold. Not frozen. Just cold.
Gila Orrak: @ No, I'm taking charge... :: softly :: for once.
Gila Orrak: @ We should get closer to the water.
Amanda Davis PhD: @ :::sets her things down and wiggles a few toes in the water::: Oh... my. Yes, it's cold.
Annika Sorenson: @ ::analyses a small sample:: Very pure. You can probably drink it.
McFly: ::puts shirt on; chuckles:: That usually means something did happen. Or you're just trying to save me from all the paperwork.
Erich Jaenke: @ That's fine. :: Looking all around, not sensing anything beyond the crew ::
Kansas Kenickie: If it did happen then maybe you shouldn't read about it
Cmdr JFarrington: @ :::Annika::: Good to know. It's been a while since I've been here.
Annika Sorenson: @::dips her foot in the water:: Oooh, I have to agree.
Kansas Kenickie: Let it go.  ::waves hand about:: 
Callista Tyrel: @ :: reaches for her tricorder :: Drinkable?
McFly: You're probably right, I'll wait for the movie to come out ::kisses her then heads to the door:: I should probably make an appearance on the bridge and say hi to Farrington. It's been a while.
Kansas Kenickie: ::is being too blasé about things::
Cmdr JFarrington: @ ::just remembered::: +HELM+ Run silent, just in case someone or something followed us.
Annika Sorenson: @ ::Nods:: I would say so, yes. These waters are quite clear and the pollutant levels are very low.
Kansas Kenickie: ::Glances back:: everyone is below...
Cmdr JFarrington: Lt Lancaster> Running silent, aye.
Annika Sorenson: @And it's cold, so it'd probably be pretty refreshing.
Kansas Kenickie: Expect Karl and Crystal.
Callista Tyrel: @ Nature unspoiled. Not like New Las Vegas...
Kansas Kenickie: They are manning the helm while we rest.
Annika Sorenson: @Not that I'd recommend drinking strange water from a place you don't know.
Amanda Davis PhD: @ :::dangling her feet in the water::: Oh... how nice. It's cold, but you get used to it. :::looks to Annika:::
Kansas Kenickie: :::Grabs towels and a fancy robe::: Let’s just go relax and forget crap for a while.
Erich Jaenke: @ :: They make their way to the waterfall. The white noise envelops the soundscape ::
Annika Sorenson: @ ::Nods:: Its quite the contrast isn't it? I don't know which I prefer more?
McFly: I feel a little sheepish going on vacay after a good sleep.
Kansas Kenickie: I had the transport Dude find us a nice peaceful spot, away from prying eyes.
Gila Orrak: @ :: speaks up :: I have not seen many waterfalls in my life, this one seems... :: tilts her neck up :: very tall.
Callista Tyrel: @ :: observes waterfall :: Snowmelt?
Annika Sorenson: @::Looks up at the waterfall as well:: If I had to guess, probably.
Kansas Kenickie: ::takes his arm:: No prying eyes.....
Erich Jaenke: @ It is tall. This is a good spot. The sound of the water blocks the sound of the other minds.
McFly: But it's more fun when they pry ::winks::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Covers her face, blushing::: no noo...
Gila Orrak: @ Really? Auditory therapy.... interesting. :: makes a not on her write device ::
Callista Tyrel: @ Uhm...was I supposed to bring a tent? :: taking it all in ::
Annika Sorenson: @ I haven't done tent camping in forever
McFly: ::smirks:: That's alright. We'll always know Erich knows what we're doing
Annika Sorenson: @or ever? ::thinks, she swishes her foot in the water:: 
Kansas Kenickie: how am I to relax with that on my mind?
Callista Tyrel: @ :: walks along streambed looking ::
Annika Sorenson: @::Gets up and follows Callista and the others::
Gila Orrak: @ :: moments upon moment pass :: I can perhaps use the embedded translator to emit white noise...
Gila Orrak: @ Commander?
Erich Jaenke: @ Hmm? :: looking up ::
Cmdr JFarrington: (Is everyone on the asteroid?)
McFly: ::pulls her close:: I'll make you forget all about him ::kisses her tenderly on the lips::
Callista Tyrel: @ Commander Farrington are we to beam down some...camping equipment?
McFly: ((me and KK are still on the ship))
Gila Orrak: @ I never did thank you, any of you, for allowing me on this ship. If it was you on a Cardassian vessel you'd get the cold shoulder, or worse.
Cmdr JFarrington: (Ohhhh..... all righty)
Kansas Kenickie: Sounds perfect.
Annika Sorenson: @Maybe we can share a tent? ::to Cal::
Erich Jaenke: @ Are we resting here? :: looks confused ::
Cmdr JFarrington: @ :::starts wandering up the mountain, looking for something::
Gila Orrak: @ I don't see why not.
Cmdr JFarrington: @ ::turns:: You can rest wherever you want to. Just watch out for prickers.
Kansas Kenickie: ::hurries into the transporter room::
Annika Sorenson: @::Glad she put her sandals back on::
Cmdr JFarrington: @ :::gets to the top of the fairly low hill and looks around:::
Amanda Davis PhD: @ ::spreads out her blanket and basks in the sun:::
Callista Tyrel: @ :: sits down on a rock, placing her tote bag on the ground :: Sure. Commander...do we need to transport our own camping equipment?
McFly: ::beams down with KK to the asteroid::
Amanda Davis PhD: @ Nothing like *real* sunlight.
Erich Jaenke: @ :: Feeling calm :: That legal stuff really worked me over.
Callista Tyrel: @ :: looks around as she awaits some 411 ::
McFly: @ ::looks around:: Oh wow, it really is nice out here.
Kansas Kenickie: @:::takes a deep breath:: I can smell the sunlight.
Erich Jaenke: @ :: stumbles ::
McFly: @ ::lets KK lead him to her spot::
Gila Orrak: @ Commander, perhaps we should stop here against this rock.
Kansas Kenickie: @ to bad we won't be here long enough to get a crisp tan.
McFly: @ Not enough UV in the stars.
Kansas Kenickie: @ ::nods:: Everyone is below at the waterfall.....we are on top.
Erich Jaenke: @ :: Sits :: What is that?
Cmdr JFarrington: @ :::stops at the top of the hill, kneels down to pick a flower and slip it into her pocket, its petals visible:::
Cmdr JFarrington: @ :::sighs and sits there alone:::
McFly: @ ::finds a nice spot near the water; sits down with KK and holds her by a waterfall::
Annika Sorenson: @::looks around as well::
Callista Tyrel: @ Well glad to be with you for another mysterious adventure Annika.
Gila Orrak: @ Oh this, a pocket replicator. :: taps. Presses a button and a kit materializes ::
Callista Tyrel: @ I guess we will just wait until the brass tells us more about this place.
Erich Jaenke: @ Could you have simply brought a blanket or whatever?
Annika Sorenson: @Yeah, likewise. If I was going to be on a mysterious adventure I'm glad it's with you.
Kansas Kenickie: @ it has been to long since we just soaked up the sun ::Lays back::
Gila Orrak: @ Oh sure, but I just wanted to try this out. I figure when I unreplicated the items I'll run out of a charge. :: sits on the blanket ::
Amanda Davis PhD: @ :::almost falling asleep, glad she has sunscreen on:::
Callista Tyrel: @ Thanks... :: in her duty uniform at the moment not too concerned about the UVs yet :: Once we get another brief...I’ll swap out my gear.
Annika Sorenson: @::sits down in the grass:: Ahh. Sounds good to me.
Callista Tyrel: Then again we might not be down here long enough for a change...:: smiles ::
 
Cmdr JFarrington: =/\==/\=PAUSE SIM=/\==/\=
Cmdr JFarrington: =/\==/\=PAUSE SIM=/\==/\=
Cmdr JFarrington: Thank you
 
Cmdr JFarrington: All yours, Boss.
Kansas Kenickie: Nice vacation spot Jami, better then the one I picked.
McFly: Nice to have a little R&R especially when you wake up from a long nap as I did.
McFly: Jami, KK and comments?
Cmdr JFarrington: There's a story behind it, Commander.
Kansas Kenickie: Soak up the sun while you can.
Cmdr JFarrington: Just enjoyed it all, Captain.
Cmdr JFarrington: Right.
McFly: Questions or comments?
Callista Tyrel: ?
Amanda Davis PhD: We get too much sun here.
McFly: Callista
Callista Tyrel: Length of shore leave? Should have asked that in sim..lol
McFly: I don't have anything too determined but probably not too long. Going to work on a new plot here.
Cmdr JFarrington: How about 50 years 
Kansas Kenickie: eep
Annika Sorenson: lol
McFly: Or that, we can just live out our days as renegades on vacation and live on replicator rations.
Callista Tyrel: It is pretty enough for that...just need to know if we need to beam down a tent!
Cmdr JFarrington: Or grass.
Amanda Davis PhD: Oh, dear. What did I get into?
McFly: Probably not. Especially if we keep it an hour every week 
Cmdr JFarrington: One hour it is.
Callista Tyrel: one hour copy
McFly: Ok so no questions
McFly: Alright if there's nothing else, grab a drink and chill by the fire while being... DISMISSED!
