CMO_CDR_McCellan says:
CTO: OK. You're free to go, The treatment seems to be working.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: Did you read last week’s issue of Interstellar Phenomenon?  It was extremely interesting, talking about the increase in unknown phenomena appearing around the universe.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
~~~~Jyg: Talking with the CMO, I hope~~~~

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
*ACO*: Because there's one on the bridge. Says he's from the diplomatic corps. ::Hand stretches over to Ops console, finger hits command lockout controls.::

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Bites her fingernails.::

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: Yes it was fascinating. Perhaps based too much on theory.

CEO: Okay.  ::Takes his glass of water and returns to his station.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
CMO: Thank you, sir. ::Steps out and over to Kela:: CNS: Kela, I'm going to check out the new bridge. Just uh.. for fun.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: Possibly, but that article was so very interesting.

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Continues his daily work.::

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Raises eyebrow.:: CTO: Are you sure that's wise, husband?

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: Correct, sir. I thought so, too.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
*ACO*: Just a moment, sir...incoming message. ::Releases comm lockout, opens channel.::

CMO_CDR_McCellan says:
::Opens desk drawer hunting through some stuff.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
CNS: Probably not. But I'm sick of this deck for now. ::Takes her hand.:: ~~~~Kela: I'll be fine. See you later. Have fun with the Doc.~~~~

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Remembers the last few talks she's had with the CMO and whispers.:: ~~~~Jyg: Did Steven blast you about the pregnancy?~~~~

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
~~~~Kela: Nope. ~~~~ ::Hears the message.:: ~~~~I guess we're both going to the Bridge.~~~~

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Smiles glad she won't have to deal with the CMO right now::: CTO: Yes it appears so. ::Turns to go.::

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: Maybe we could keep the article in mind during our journeys.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
COM:Jamison: Affirmative, sir...he arrived a few minutes ago and is preparing to meet with Acting Captain Bandra.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
*AXO*: On my way, sir.

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Leads his wife out of Sickbay to the turbolift.::

Host PAGM_Ruth says:
<Adm. Jamison> Scimitar: Good. Jamison out.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: Yes, great idea.  I think I'm going to download that one from the database.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Closes channel.:: Sir Chambers: Right this way, sir... ::Gestures towards ready room.::

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: Excellent. I could link it up to the library computer references.

Host Sir_Chambers says:
AXO: About time, Chap. ::Follows the AXO.::

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: Great.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Watching ready room doors.::

CMO_CDR_McCellan says:
::Stands up from his desk and wanders into Sickbay to find it empty except for a nurse dashing around aimlessly moving stuff.::

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
Sir Chambers: I'm sorry about the precautions, sir. Necessary evil.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
::Starts the library program up, to add the new links.::

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Continues monitoring systems.::

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: I'm looking forward to this mission.  It's my first first contact.  How about you?

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Arrives at the turbolift and stares straight ahead removing her hand from Jyg's.:: TL: Bridge.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Wonders what's taking so long...::

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Comes to ready room door, hits chime.::

Host Sir_Chambers says:
AXO: You chaps sure are paranoid.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: My first as well. I am very new in Star Fleet yet, but it is this sort of work I joined for.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
*AXO*: Enter!

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Thinks: If this guy only knew...::

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
~~~~Jyg: Not very professional to walk onto the bridge holding hands, now, is it?~~~~ ::Steps out onto the bridge.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
~~~~Kela: Depends. Are they working? Or partying?~~~~

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Enters ready room.:: ACO, Sir Chambers: Captain, may I present Sir Peter Chambers. Sir, this is Acting Captain K'Vin Bandra.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: You do not get many first contacts at the Vulcan Science Academy.

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Waits for the turbolift to open the doors.::

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Stands.::  Sir Chambers: Welcome aboard, may I ask to what do we owe the honour of your visit?

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Follows the AXO into the ready room.:: ACO: Ah at last, Captain Bandra.  I am Sir Peter Chambers.

Host Sir_Chambers says:
ACO: I am here to help you chaps with your mission.

CEO_LTJG_Craven says:
::Continues monitoring the ship's systems, looking for anything abnormal.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Steps out onto the Bridge and looks around.::

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
::Wonders what’s going on in Bandra’s ready room.::

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: Yes.  It seems that Vulcans do not get many opportunities to be diplomats, except for the legendary Sarek, of course.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
ACO: If I may, sir, Admiral Jamison advised us that Sir Chambers would be coming.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
ACO: But he didn't call until Sir Chambers was already on board.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Tries not to laugh. And walks up to the ready room and rings the chime.::

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: Ah, yes Sarek. And of course Spock.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
AXO: Really?  Well then. Sir Chambers: Anything you'd like to discuss before we head out?

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
::Gets up and walks to bridge replicator:: Bridge: Anyone want something?

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Turns head slightly as door chime sounds again.::

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Wonders why Starfleet didn't notify them ahead of Sir Chamber's arrival.::

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
FCO: Tea please white no sugar

Host Sir_Chambers says:
ACO: None.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: Oh yes.  I often forget about him.  I mostly read about his Science Officer legacies.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
Replicator: One raktajino, a jumja stick and a tea, white with no sugar::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Walks over to Lts Kalla and Cartigan:: CSO/SO: Greetings. ::Smiles.::

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Stands outside the ready room with her back to the bridge crew and feels self-conscious as she sneezes yet again.::

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: Talking about diplomats it seems likely that the person who just entered the ready room must be linked to our first contact mission.

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Continues his work moving to work station 4 to check secondary systems.::

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
Sir Chambers: Very well.
AXO: I'll let you take us out, return once we're under way.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
CTO: Hello, sir.  Congrats on your new promotion.

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
CEO: All is looking well so far Lieutenant.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
*CNS*: Enter.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
::Walks over to Tac1 and hands Furlong his drink.:: TO: So, how’s it going this morning, Furlong?

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CTO: Sir, congratulations.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Enters the ready room.::

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
ACO: Aye, sir. ::Exits ready room.::

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Passes the Counselor.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
CSO: Thank you, both. I'm just here to look around. What's going on?

CEO_LTJG_Craven says:
EO:  Good, keep checking as you never know when something might just pop up.

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
CEO: Aye sir, better to be safe then dead.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Glances at Sir Chambers and then at the ACO.:: ACO: Yes, sir?

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
Sir Chambers: I was going to have a strategy session, perhaps you would like to join us?

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
CTO: We're just having a conversation on random items, interstellar phenomena, diplomats, that sort.

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
FCO: So far I have allowed a gross breach of security protocols and allowed Sir_Chambers to stroll right up to the bridge.

Host Sir_Chambers says:
ACO: Very well.  But do you have a spot of tea?  My throat is quit parched.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Raises eyebrow and wonders what type of strategy will be discussed.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
CSO: I see. ::Taps the console.:: How's my baby today?

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
All: All stations, prepare to get under way.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
TO: All in one morning, huh?

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
FCO: Mr. More, plot a course towards the Maraisean system and clear our departure with Rampart Operations.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Points to the replicator.:: Sir Chambers: Help yourself.

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
FCO: But I haven't had a fight with anyone so on the whole not too bad at the minute.  How’re you doing?

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
::Looks at console. It seems its normal grown-up size.::

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Hides a smirk and withholds her suggestion to get one for the man.::

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
CNS: Have a seat.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
::Smiles at Kalla, giggles.::

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
*CEO*: Bridge to Engineering...Mr. Craven, how do we look down there?

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Thinks...so much of Klingons being civlized. He lets his guests serve themselves.::

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Sits and looks at the ACO expectantly.::

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
::Nods to Furlong and heads to station.:: AXO: Yes, sir.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Walks in front of The Chair.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Looks at the SO wanting to laugh, but knows she won’t get it:: SO: Thank you, Kalla. Helpful as always.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CTO: Baby, you mean... ::Looks at ready room.:: ~~~~Kela?~~~~

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Heads over to the replicator and orders some tea with lemon.::

CEO_LTJG_Craven says:
*AXO*: We look like we are doing fine, sir.  All systems appear to be in good condition.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
COM:Rampart: This is the Scimitar requesting authorization to leave docking port.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
CTO:  It's doing fine ,sir.

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
~~~~SO: Not really. I was referring to the Scimitar. You know of the pregnancy, as well?~~~~

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
*CEO*: That's what I like to hear. We're about to depart...oh, and could you send Mr. Evans to the bridge?

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Continues checking systems to be sure he didn't miss anything.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
CSO: I see. ::Looks at Furlong.:: Tactical Officer?

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
~~~~CTO: Well, she sneezed at Bajor, and I looked up medical references for Bajoran women...~~~~

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Sits patiently waiting for the ACO to explain.::

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
All: We'll begin once  Andersen returns.

CEO_LTJG_Craven says:
*AXO*: Yes, sir.

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Takes his tea and sits down.::

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
CTO: Sir? What about him?

CEO_LTJG_Craven says:
EO:  They want you on the bridge, better get up there as fast as you can.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Takes his seat.::

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Leaves main engineering for the turbolift.::  CEO Aye, Sir.

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
~~~~SO: Very adept of you, Kalla. It seems I'm the last to know anything. That will have to change now that I'm Chief of Security.~~~~ CSO: He wasn’t one when I left the Bridge. I'm just surprised, is all.

CMO_CDR_McCellan says:
::Collects a few PADDs and leaves Sickbay for the airlock.::

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Sips his tea with his pinky raised.::

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
::Repeats request.:: COM:Rampart OPS: This is the USS Scimitar requesting clearance to leave dock.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Looks at Sir Chambers, sees he looks decidedly human and offers a hand to shake.:: Sir Chambers: I am Counselor Ahkileez.

CMO_CDR_McCellan says:
::OK, gets off ship and waits for it to depart before sorting stuff out.::

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Enters turbolift.:: TL: Bridge.

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Nods to the lady.::

Host PAGM_Ruth says:
<Rampart> COM:Scimitar: You have clearance to leave.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
~~~~CTO: I see.~~~~

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Going over information again, waiting for the AXO to get back.::

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
COM:Rampart: Acknowledged.

CEO_LTJG_Craven says:
::Continues checking ship systems.::

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Then takes her hand and kisses it.:: CNS: Charmed to me you, M'lady.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
CTO: Mr. Ahkileez, seal airlocks and release docking clamps.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
AXO: Once we clear the system I’ll go to warp.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
ACO: What warp factor should I go to, sir?

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
CTO: I'm not sure.  I think he was a security officer.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Hides her flash of anger that surfaces for some unknown reason and hopes he'll think she's blushing with pleasure.:: Sir Chambers: Pleased to meet you, as well.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
::Turns back to console to continue programming library links.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
AXO: Yessir. ::Steps over to the Tac Console.:: Sir.. Uhm, I've not been released for duty.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Nose itches.::

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
FCO: I'll let you know, Mr. More. Once airlocks have been sealed, fore and aft thrusters at station keeping, starboard thrusters at full.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
AXO: Yes, sir.

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Exits turbolift.:: AXO: LtJG Evans reporting as ordered.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
CTO: Oh...well... ::Seals airlocks and releases docking clamps himself.::

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
::Seals airlocks and checks internal and external security::

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
::Turns his attention back to the science console and scans the space that the ship will pass through for any unusual happenings.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Stupid, stupid, stupid. Why did I remind him?::

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
EO: Ah, Mr. Evans. I know it's a little out of your realm, but I'd like you to take Ops for the moment.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
::Keeps tab on Science 1's scans, ready to look up anything unusual. Still types away.::

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
AXO: Aye Sir.  ::Takes seat at ops station.::

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Checks over panel and tries hard to remember the duties of ops.::

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Senses her husband’s irritation and files it away for later questions.::

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
AXO: We have cleared the system and are ready to go to warp on your command.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
Sir Chambers: What brings you with us here today? ::Tries to be pleasant.::

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
::Begins a deep scan of the area.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:

::Looks up.:: ACO: Yes, Sir ::sneeze:: hot jumja tea please.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
FCO: Very well, Mr. More...set a course for the Maraisean system, Warp 6...Engage.

Host Sir_Chambers says:
CNS: Well Starfleet Command felt you chaps might need some help with your Captain away and your CMO being reassigned and with your CTO resigning.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Nods, takes his hot chocolate in one hand, orders her jumja tea and picks it up in the other:.:

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
TO: I'm not sure ::looks::, ensign. That's up to Commander McCellan. I want to be back up here as soon as possible, though.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
AXO: Aye.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
::Sets course engages warp and heads over to TAC1.::

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
Sir Chambers: I see. ::Smiles a cold smile that says we don't need any help.::

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
::Finishes her programming. Closes program and gets up.:: CSO: Anything from the replicator sir?

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Walks over and hands it to her. Moves back to his seat behind the desk and sits.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Steps back to get out of the FCO's way.::

FCO: Hi - sorry to ignore you. I was distracted.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
AXO: Aye, sir.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
TO: No problem, I had to go to my station.

::Walks to the captain’s chair and sits down.::

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Thinks, how rude, he gets her a drink but makes a guest get his own....hmmm maybe the Klingon does not like him.::

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Chimes ready room.::

Host PAGM_Ruth says:
ACTION: The Scimitar arrives at Maraise.

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::In his quarters::

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
TO: So what I’m basically asking is, would you like to join me on the holodeck sometime to try out the new exercise program I got for Christmas?

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Behind Evans, calling up more info on Maraiseans at Mission Ops.::

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
FCO: Sure thing - I could do with the exercise.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
TO: Me too.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Closes out monitor, goes to look at Evans' work.::

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
::Gets back to station.:: ACO: Standard orbit, sir?

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Watches the crew of the Bridge work with practiced efficiency and sighs. Thinks to self: Biggest person on the Bridge and the least use.::

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
::At science 2 programming a tricorder for use by CSO at away missions to Maraise.::

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
EO: Good job, Lieutenant. Looks like you got the hang of this in no time.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::In center seat:: FCO: No I want to stay out of their sensor range.

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Nervous with the AXO over his shoulder continues to work.::

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
AXO: Thank you, sir.

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
ACO: Shields, Sir?

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
::Walks to Science 1 and sits down.::

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
ACO: So geoscynchronous orbit a few thousand kilometers away?

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
TO: No... this is a peaceful mission. I don't want them to get the wrong idea... but have them ready just in case.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
EO: Remember...no one ever starts at Ops. It's good to know the other bridge stations in case you need to assume their duties.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
::Looks up at CSO.:: CSO: Sir.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
FCO: So longs as we're out of their range.

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
AXO: Yes, sir.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: I'm interested to know more about what the planet is like.

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Grabs his cane and decides to head for the bridge.::

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Sifts through the CMO's PADDs left on his desk and finds one marked CNS Ahkileez.::

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
ACO: Yes sir.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Nods to EO, heads down to the XO's chair and sits down.::

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: Yes, sir. I am now programming your tricorder with all available information on the planet.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
ACO: I take it you never engaged in a first contact situation before, sir?

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
ACO: Tactical scan?

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
::Hits comm badge in whisper mode.:: *TO*: So, when do you wanna try it out?

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: Thank you LtJG.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
TO: Passive scans only for now.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
SCI: That goes for you, as well.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Sits down on the edge of the CMO's desk and looks at the PADD trying to decide if she should read it.::

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
ACO: Aye, sir.

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
::Passive scan mode engaged.::

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
ACO: Aye, sir.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
::Starts downloading fauna and flora info.::

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
::Switches panel to override all full scans and only use passive scans.::

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
FCO: When we're next off watch?

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Continues to check systems and comm channels::

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Arrives on the bridge and walks over to the center area and sits down in the Counselor’s chair on the bridge.::

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
ACO: Only reason I ask is that you served aboard a couple of months before I was posted here.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
*TO*: About four hours.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Looks over at Sir Chambers.:: Sir Chambers: Recommendations?

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
*FCO*: Okay.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Turns on the PADD with a wicked grin.::

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
AXO: Not really, certainly never in this capacity before.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: It should be interesting to see how this situation is handled, don't you think?

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Walks over to the turbolift.:: TL: Deck 5.

Host Sir_Chambers says:
ACO: Well have you hailed them yet?

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
::Downloading finished she disconnects the tricorder.:: CSO: Yes indeed.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: May I see the tricorder?

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
Sir Chambers: No, we have not.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Realizes she has control of Sickbay and sits down behind the desk for the first time.::

Host Sir_Chambers says:
ACO: And why not?  How do you plan to make first contact, my good man, if you do not say hello?

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
*CTO*: Report to Sickbay.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
::Hands tricorder to CSO.:: CSO: Here you are sir.

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Walks out of the turbolift and into Sickbay.:: CNS: I'm already here, Kela.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: Thank you.  ::Begins looking over the expert modifications put into the tricorder.:: Self: Everything I'd need to know on the planet.::

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Smiles at the comments on the PADD:: Self: Yes, Steven, I will take care of your crew... ::Looks up.:: CTO: Come on in here, please.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
Sir Chambers: As shocking as this may be I'm unsure what I should do. So, exactly how would you recommend going about this?

Host Sir_Chambers says:
ACO: Well first, why not hail them. ::Wonders where Starfleet dug this old boy up.::

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
Okay asap.

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Walks past that nurse that never seems to go off duty, and into the CMO's office.:: Kela: What are you doing in here?

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
ACO: First contact procedures usually require communication with the leader of the world being contacted.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
Sir Chambers: And how should we do that? Visual, audio only, radio, subspace? Should we let them see us first?

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
AXO: Thank you.

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Thinks well at least the AXO has some sort of brain.::

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
CTO: Jyg...just making myself comfortable. Let's go get you checked out, shall we husband? ::Takes his hand and walks him towards a biobed for scans.::

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Sighs.:: ACO: What is the most advanced level of communications technology that they have?

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
::Continues passive scan - widens field to include EM bands.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Sits on the biobed:: CNS: Kela, where's Steven? Isn’t he supposed to check me out?

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
CNS: Wait, you said getting comfortable?

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
ACO, Sir Chambers: We could start with subspace radio and inquire about visual communications.

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Thinks: No wonder Starfleet Command assigned me to this ship.::

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
Sir Chambers: Radio and video. AXO: Good plan.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
CTO: Steven has left the ship. Apparently he has transferred to another ship. ::Scans him and smiles.::

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: Should we scan for communication signals?

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
CTO: If I return you to restricted duty, will I be scraping you off the floor from over-exhaustion in two hours?

Host Sir_Chambers says:
ACO: Well then, let’s hail the chaps.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: Yes, good idea.  We'll need to find where it's best to send the message on the surface.

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
CNS: Return me to... You're CMO here now?

Host Almite_Ledr says:
::Working at desk in office.::

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
::Starts passive surface scans of the planet.::

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Looks at AXO.:: AXO: Open a comm channel, subspace radio.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
::Passively scans the planet, looking for radio.....towers or something to that nature.::

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Opens  channel.:: ACO: Channel opened, sir.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Shrugs.:: CTO: Acting CMO for the time being. Nothing more. But your cellular degradation has been reversed, your telepathy has ceased its downward spiral, and your psilocylesene levels are fine.

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Smiles at EO's efficiency.:: ACO: Guess that means you're on, sir.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Sneezes and puts the medical equipment down.::

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
Sir Chambers: Would you like to make contact, or shall I give it a try?

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Smiles coyly:: CNS: So, is it against regs to hug the Acting CMO? I know I couldn’t have done it with Steven.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
::L0ooks at ACO, wanting to listen in on the conversation.::

Host Sir_Chambers says:
ACO: You’re the ship’s Captain.

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Continues to monitor communication channel in case adjustments need to be made.::

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Backs away.:: CTO: That would not be professional. ~~~~Jyg: What am I going to do with you?~~~~

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
CTO: You wouldn't hug the CO. Don't hug me ::sneeze:: on duty.

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
~~~~Kela: Anything you like.~~~~ CNS: I ”could” hug the CO. But K'vin wouldn’t like that. ::Smiles.:: So I can go back to work now?

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Stands.:: Com:Maraise: This is Commander Bandra of the Federation starship Scimitar. Greetings.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
CTO: You are released to restricted duty. No away teams, and if I hear you are overdoing it, I'll put your bum back in Sickbay on total restrictions.

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Checks to see if they are receiving the Scimitar's transmission.::

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
::Eagerly awaits response from Maraiseans.::

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
::Waiting for the Maraiseans response.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
CNS: Okay Sweetheart. I'll be good. I'm gonna head up to the Bridge, then. See you later.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Looks at Sir Chambers and the rest of the bridge crew... waiting.::
EO: Any sign that they've received our signal?

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Waits for them to answer.::

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: Well we seem to be passing over one of the warmer climactic zones at the moment, sir.

Host Almite_Ledr says:
::Hears the message.:: Self: Federation? COM:Scimitar: Hello. This is Almite Ledr, the :;grins:: almighty leader of Maraise.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
::Scans to make sure they're strong enough to pick up the signal.::

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Double checks to verify transmission receipt.:: ACO: They appear to have received us, sir.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Watches Jyg leave Sickbay, nervously hoping there won't be a repeat performance.:: ~~~~Jyg: If you overdo it, I will never forgive you. I...we need you here healthy and here.~~~~

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
Self: Guess so. EO: Thank you.

EO_LTJG_EVANS says:
::Hides grins when he hears Almite Ledr.::

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Walks towards the turbolift.:: ~~~~Kela: I won’t overdo it. I promise. I've got to be 100% for the little one.~~~~

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: ::Quietly.:: They're most likely surprised.

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
TL: Bridge.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
Com:Maraise: Greetings Almite Ledr.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: Or nervous.

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: Probably thinking global wide emergency.

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Rubs her forehead in obvious pain at the thought of a little Ahkileez.::

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
::Gets up goes to replicator.:: Replicator: One jumja stick. Self: I’m addicted to these things.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: Yes see what it did to earth with first contact.

FCO_Ensign_Adam_More says:
::Gets back to station.::

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: Yes.

CTO_LtJG_Ahkileez says:
::Steps off the turbolift and to his right to Tac 1.:: TO: I've been released sooner than expected.

SO_LtJG_Kalla says:
CSO: I wonder if there are any major differences of opinion on the planet.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
::Looks at Sir Chambers.:: Sir Chambers: Okay, what now?

CNS_LtJg_Ahkileez says:
::Heads back and sits down to tackle the PADDs on the CMO's desk.::

CSO_LTJG_Cartigan says:
SO: Yes, like any separate political groups.

Host Sir_Chambers says:
::Shakes head.:: ACO: Invite him up.  Or ask to beam down.

TO_Ens_Furlong says:
CTO: Congrats - over to you. I remain nearby, should you need me. ::Steps aside.::

AXO_CDR_Andersen says:
ACO: I'd recommend greeting him on the Scimitar, sir.

Host ACO_CDR_Bandra says:
AXO: Agreed.
