Ops_Ander says:
CTO: Where's this meeting supposed to be?

CEOCraven says:
::walking through corridor on SB51::

CTO_Bucha says:
Ops: Dunno.

Ops_Ander says:
51Comp: Computer, locate Captain Stanley.

CTO_Bucha says:
::stops a nice-looking female ensign::

Host 51Computer says:
Ops: In his office.

CMOMcCell says:
::stands outside the meeting room, waitng for someone else so he doesn't have to go in alone and be uncomfortable::

Dr_Early says:
::computer wakes Dr. Early:: Self: What?

Host XOBandra says:
::making his way towards Conference Room 1::

CTO_Bucha says:
Ens: How do we get to Conference Room 1?

Ens says:
CTO: Just go down that hallway, then take a left. ::grins at CTO::

DeSotoXO says:
::on a severe caffeine high::

Host StanleyCO says:
::in his office, looks over his notes for the joint command crew staff meeting::

Ops_Ander says:
Self: Obviously, he's not where the meeting is... ::turns toward Buchanan and the ensign::

Dr_Early says:
::rises, wipes drool from lip and heads toward conference room::

CEOCraven says:
::continues walking towards Conference Room 1::

DeSotoXO says:
::pacing around the room::

CTO_Bucha says:
Ens: Thanks...care to meet for a drink later?

Host XOBandra says:
::sees McCellan standing outside the room:: CMO: Hello...

Ens says:
CTO: Sure...

Host StanleyCO says:
::gathers up his notes...and checks the clock::

Ops_Ander says:
::rolls his eyes::

CTO_Bucha says:
Ops: Let's go.

CMOMcCell says:
Bandra: Hello.

Ops_Ander says:
::heads towards Conference Room 1...all these starbases look alike::

CEOCraven says:
::arrives just outside the conference room::

CTO_Bucha says:
Ops: She was a cutie, huh?

DeSotoXO says:
::looks at clock on computer terminal::

Host StanleyCO says:
::notices it's about 2 minutes 'til meeting time...and that it takes 2 minutes to walk to the conference room from his office::

Host XOBandra says:
CMO: Any word yet?

Host StanleyCO says:
::exits his office::

CMOMcCell says:
::realizes being with K'vin is more difficult than the meeting room and enters as K'vin gets closer and just behind him::

Ops_Ander says:
CTO: You're fulfilling the time-honored statement of a sailor...a girl in every port. ::grins::

Dr_Early says:
::saunters into Conference Room 1, looking at all the strangers waiting outside.::

Ops_Ander says:
::spots CEO ahead...this must be the place::

Dr_Early says:
::takes a seat and waits::

Host XOBandra says:
::follows the doctor in, wondering why he seems to be avoiding him::

CTO_Bucha says:
::smiles at Andersen...as they arrive at Conference Room 1::

DeSotoXO says:
::nods at doctor and continues pacing::

Host StanleyCO says:
::halfway to Conference Room 1::

Ops_Ander says:
::walks through door, sees the crew assembled...takes a seat next to the XO::

CEOCraven says:
::walks into the conference room::

Ops_Ander says:
XO: Morning, Commander...

CTO_Bucha says:
::enters and finds a seat::

Dr_Early says:
::yawns::

CMOMcCell says:
::nods back at DeSoto::

CEOCraven says:
::finds a seat::

Host StanleyCO says:
::turns the corner and walks last stretch to Conference Room::

Host XOBandra says:
Ops: What? Oh yes, hello. ::glances at McCellan::

Host StanleyCO says:
::enters conference room::

CMOMcCell says:
::takes a seat that ends up being uncomfortable...or is it him?::

DeSotoXO says:
CO: Good afternoon, sir.

CTO_Bucha says:
::wondering what this is all about::

Ops_Ander says:
::notices a captain coming in...this must be 51's CO::

Host StanleyCO says:
::nods to his executive officer:: XO: Are all personnel accounted for?

Dr_Early says:
::waves to Captain Stanley::

CTO_Bucha says:
::sees captain and sits attentively::

DeSotoXO says:
CO: Yes sir, except for Captain Ian-Bandra.

DeSotoXO says:
::takes his chair next to his CO::

Host StanleyCO says:
::takes his seat:: Bandra: Where is Captain Ian-Bandra?

CMOMcCell says:
::moves seat closer to table just to do something::

DeSotoXO says:
::shifts his weight in the chair::

Host StanleyCO says:
::nods to Joe...aka Doctor Early::

Host XOBandra says:
::stands:: Stanley: She's...she's in sickbay, sir. She collapsed as we were making our final approach.

Host StanleyCO says:
Bandra: I'm sorry to hear that. Any idea what caused it?

Host XOBandra says:
::glances at McC:: Stanley: Not as yet, sir. Our CMO was working on it.

Dr_Early says:
::perks up on hearing about Captain Ian-Bandra::

CMOMcCell says:
::remains cool-headed and detatched from the meeting::

Host StanleyCO says:
::nods:: Bandra: Very well. Then, until further notice, you are the Scimitar's acting commanding officer.

Host XOBandra says:
::nods:: Stanley: Yes, sir. ::sits::

Dr_Early says:
::motions to McCellan for his PADD with information on Ian-Bandra::

Host StanleyCO says:
Early, McCellan: After the meeting, I want you two to get together and look over Captain Ian-Bandra's condition. Dr. McCellan, I also suggest you get her ready to be transferred to Rampart's sickbay.

Dr_Early says:
Stanley: Aye, sir.

Ops_Ander says:
::meeting's going slowly...as most meetings do::

Host XOBandra says:
::half hearing the meeting, worrying about Aurel::

CTO_Bucha says:
::anticipates a few cocktails with that hot ensign::

CMOMcCell says:
::suddenly realizes he was addressed and responds with normal response:: Stanley: Of course, sir.

Host StanleyCO says:
All: Now, on to the reason I called this meeting...until further notice, both the Scimitar and the 33rd Fighter Wing are assigned to Starbase 51. We are the only Starfleet presence in this sector.

Host XOBandra says:
::pushes his worries away for the moment, trying to pay attention to the CO's speech::

DeSotoXO says:
::crosses legs, fidgeting some more::

Host StanleyCO says:
All: The sector's chain of command is as follows: myself, Captain Ian-Bandra, Captain Manfred von Roth - the commanding officer of the 33rd Fighter Wing - Commander Bandra and Commander DeSoto.

CTO_Bucha says:
Self: Only Starfleet presence in the sector? Interesting...

Ops_Ander says:
::thinks, only presence...compared to whom?::

Host StanleyCO says:
All: The good news is that the 33rd's fighters are going to be upgraded.

Host XOBandra says:
Stanley: Sir with Aur...with Captain Ian-Bandra's current condition, does that mean I'll be taking her place in that list?

CMOMcCell says:
::pushes PADD onto table::

Host StanleyCO says:
Bandra: I'm not sure. We'll have to address that issue after the meeting.

Host XOBandra says:
Stanley: Very well, sir.

DeSotoXO says:
::uncrosses legs wishing for more coffee::

Dr_Early says:
::takes PADD and reviews Ian-Bandra's condition::

CMOMcCell says:
::doesn't notice his PADD was snatched::

Host StanleyCO says:
All: The first order of business is to make sure that we have the equipment need to effect repairs on the Scimitar and the 33rd's fighters. Therefore, after this meeting the following will get togther to figure out what we will need: Commander DeSoto, Lieutenant Commander Andersen, and Ensign Craven.

Dr_Early says:
::downloads data and starts a cross-reference with station's medical files::

Ops_Ander says:
::nods to Stanley::

CEOCraven says:
::nods::

DeSotoXO says:
::looks at CO and crosses legs again::

Host StanleyCO says:
All: Commander Bandra, Captain Roth, Lieutenant Commander Buchanan and myself will discuss tactical options.

Host XOBandra says:
::nods::

Host StanleyCO says:
All: Does anyone have anything else?

Dr_Early says:
::shakes head negatively::

Host XOBandra says:
Stanley: Not at present.

DeSotoXO says:
::moves in his chair again::

Dr_Early says:
CMO: Doctor, let's go to my office and review what we can find.

Host XOBandra says:
::glances at McC again::

Host StanleyCO says:
All: Very well. You are all dismissed to your respective groups.

CMOMcCell says:
::wonders what the long wait is about::

Ops_Ander says:
::rises from chair, approaches Cmdr. DeSoto::

Dr_Early says:
::nods to Stanley and exits::

CTO_Bucha says:
::stands and stretches a bit::

DeSotoXO says:
::stands::

CMOMcCell says:
::stays seated in chair for a moment or two before getting up to leave::

CEOCraven says:
::gets up from chair and walks towards Cmdr. DeSoto and Lt. Cmdr. Andersen::

Dr_Early says:
::waits for McCellan to accompany him::

Host StanleyCO says:
DeSoto: Go ahead and use the conference room.

CMOMcCell says:
::exits and catches the Rampart doctor::

CTO_Bucha says:
Bandra: So, where are we gonna do this 'meeting of the minds?'

Host StanleyCO says:
Bandra, Buchanan, Roth: We'll head for my office.

DeSotoXO says:
CO: Very well.

CTO_Bucha says:
Bandra: That answers that...

Dr_Early says:
CMO: Well, Doctor, your thoughts?

Host StanleyCO says:
::turns and heads out of the conference room and heads for his office::

Host XOBandra says:
CTO: So it would seem. ::stands and waits for Stanley to lead the way::

CTO_Bucha says:
::follows Stanley::

Ops_Ander says:
::extends hand:: Lieutenant Commander Andersen, Scimitar's acting XO.

Ops_Ander says:
::notices DeSoto seems preoccupied::

CMOMcCell says:
Early: On?

Dr_Early says:
::brows furl:: CMO: On your captain's condition, of course.

CMOMcCell says:
Early: Oh, uh, yes, of course. I think she is stable at the moment.

CTO_Bucha says:
::PADD in hand, follows to Stanley's office::

Dr_Early says:
CMO: Any ideas on what caused the coma?

DeSotoXO says:
::eyes dart back and forth, finally noticing Andersen::

Host XOBandra says:
::steps behind Stanley, following the group::

DeSotoXO says:
Ops: Congratulations, I heard you have been promoted.

Host StanleyCO says:
::enters his office and heads for his nice comfortable chair...and motions to the two hardback chairs and couch for the others::

Host Roth says:
::sits down on the couch::

CMOMcCell says:
Early: No, not an idea. I don't even know what caused the neurophalactic shock.

Ops_Ander says:
DeSoto: Thank you, sir...this is Ensign Timothy Craven, our chief engineer.

CTO_Bucha says:
::sits on the other end of the couch from Roth::

Host XOBandra says:
::takes one of the hard seats::

Dr_Early says:
::motions to a chair as they enter Early's office::

DeSotoXO says:
::looks at Craven quickly and darts back to Andersen:: CEO: Nice to meet you.

Host StanleyCO says:
::looks at the lieutenant commander...surprised that he has such little respect for a senior officer::

CMOMcCell says:
::stands by seat::

CEOCraven says:
DeSotoXO: Nice to meet you too sir.

Ops_Ander says:
DeSoto: What kind of repair facilities are available here, sir?

CTO_Bucha says:
::feels the uneasy eyes of ranking officers upon him and stands::

CTO_Bucha says:
Stanley: Excuse me, sir.

DeSotoXO says:
Ops: Oh, we can pretty much take care of anything you need here. Our final staff is arriving shortly... ::walks to other side of table::

Host StanleyCO says:
Bandra: Where do you see yourself in the sector chain of command with your captain out of commission?

Host StanleyCO says:
CTO: Yes, Commander Buchanan?

CMOMcCell says:
Early: Don't you think it would be best to move the captain to Rampart first?

CTO_Bucha says:
Stanley: May I? ::points to the sofa::

Dr_Early says:
CMO: Oh, yes, certainly.

Host StanleyCO says:
CTO: I do not care where you sit.

Dr_Early says:
::makes arrangements to have Captain Ian moved::

Ops_Ander says:
DeSoto: Well, the Scimitar was able to accommodate the 33rd Fighter Wing on a short-term basis with little difficulty. However, we were forced to use both engineering and operations staffs working round-the-clock to maintain wing readiness.

CMOMcCell says:
::takes a seat::

Host XOBandra says:
Stanley: In command of the Scimitar, sir...it's up to you if I'll take her place under you. That is, if you think a commander should be in a higher position than a captain. ::looks at the others present::

CTO_Bucha says:
Stanley: Thank you. ::takes seat::

CEOCraven says:
::nods::

Ops_Ander says:
DeSoto: I was wondering, sir, if it would be possible to embark a separate support staff for the 33rd, so that we may maintain operational readiness for the Scimitar herself.

DeSotoXO says:
Ops: Aww, I see, I see. Yes, I see. I guess the Scimitar's personnel were busy with the fighter wing onboard.

Host StanleyCO says:
Bandra: Hmm..good point. For the time being, then, we will simply omit Captain Ian-Bandra from the chain of command 'til she returns to duty.

Ops_Ander says:
DeSoto: Yes, sir. As the department chiefs, myself and Ensign Craven need to make sure our staffs don't work themselves into the ground.

Host XOBandra says:
Stanley: Very well, sir.

Dr_Early says:
::gets McCellan's attention and points to data on console::

Host XOBandra says:
::thoughts drift back to Aurel::

CMOMcCell says:
::reads console::

DeSotoXO says:
Ops: Yes. Yes, I see. You do. Well, we can lend you some staff personnel, but they may be needed here on station as well.

CTO_Bucha says:
::glances at Capt. Roth...mumbles to self:: Strange-looking character.

Host StanleyCO says:
::notices a small lapse in Commander Bandra's attention and puts one and one together::

Dr_Early says:
::squints and tries to see the data scrolling by::

Ops_Ander says:
DeSoto: We'll take anyone you can spare, sir. Also, we'll need a replacement for our flight control officer...we've already made a request through Starfleet Command, but they've been slow to respond. Any candidates on your staff who'd take a short-term assignment?

Host StanleyCO says:
Bandra: Why don't you go check on your wife. I am sure Lieutenant Commander Buchanan can brief you on what you missed.

CTO_Bucha says:
::can see that Aurel's condition is really buggin' his Klingon friend, but it's not the right time for consolation::

DeSotoXO says:
Ops: Oh, I don't know. As I said, we aren't even fully staffed here. I will see what I can come up with for you... ::walks to replicator and gets some more coffee with extra caffeine::

CMOMcCell says:
Early: One thing of note is a few damaged liver cells...and around them there are cells showing minute quantities of delta radiation.

CTO_Bucha says:
Stanley, Bandra: Sure...if you wish, sir.

Host XOBandra says:
Stanley: Thank you, sir. ::stands and leaves::

Dr_Early says:
CMO: Ah yes, now I see.

Host StanleyCO says:
CTO: What is the Scimitar's current tactical condition?

Ops_Ander says:
DeSoto: I think I know how you feel, sir... CEO: Your turn, Tim. Anything to add?

CMOMcCell says:
Early: Could suggest she was exposed to something that impared a biological junction...but what?

Host XOBandra says:
::heads toward the Scimitar::

Dr_Early says:
::turns to CMO:: CMO: She's been exposed to radiation recently?

CTO_Bucha says:
Stanley/Roth: All weapons and defense systems are operating at a satisfactory level...routine maintenance is due, however.

CMOMcCell says:
Early: None that have been reported.

CEOCraven says:
DeSoto, Ops: Nothing, really. You seemed to cover most of it.

Dr_Early says:
CMO: I suggest a twofold approach.

Host StanleyCO says:
Buchanan: Very well.

Dr_Early says:
CMO: First we treat for infections, and at the same time for radiation poisoning.

Host StanleyCO says:
Buchanan, Roth: Currently, the sector threat board is empty. Therefore, I suggest we use the peace and quiet to give first the Scimitar, then the 33rd some downtime.

Ops_Ander says:
DeSoto: So...what exactly have you faced out here, sir?

CTO_Bucha says:
Stanley/Roth: Agreed...sir, what recent threats have you encountered in this sector?

Host XOBandra says:
::arrives on the Scimitar and makes his way towards sickbay::

CMOMcCell says:
Early: OK, sounds good.

DeSotoXO says:
Ops: Oh...pirates mostly. I have been having problems sleeping, too. ::smiles and takes another sip of coffee::

Host StanleyCO says:
CTO: A few pirate attacks and, well, Dominion attacks during the war. But we've been pretty quiet since the war's end...too quiet.

CTO_Bucha says:
::making notes for Bandra on PADD::

Host StanleyCO says:
CTO: Therefore, unless something happens, once the support for the Scimitar is set in place the entire crew is granted 48 hours of downtime and shore leave. And I do mean the entire crew.

Host StanleyCO says:
Roth: After the Scimitar finishes her leave, the 33rd will stand down for 48 hours.

Dr_Early says:
::sets up a biobed in 51's sickbay, awaiting Captain Ian-Bandra's arrival::

Host StanleyCO says:
CTO, Roth: And I do mean downtime, gentlemen...that goes for every member of your units. No exceptions.  Consider the downtime orders from the sector commander...because they are.

Ops_Ander says:
::slight grin:: DeSoto: Had a few of those, too, sir. Anyway...I'd recommend we begin by upgrading the Scimitar's shuttlebay to support full-time carrier ops.

Dr_Early says:
::sees Ian-Bandra brought in and directs the medtechs to put her on the biobed::

Host XOBandra says:
::arrives in sickbay and finds that Aurel's been transferred to the starbase's sickbay...turns around and heads back to the station.::

CMOMcCell says:
::uses Early's console to recover the Scimitar's sensor data on the Pakled ship::

CTO_Bucha says:
Stanley: Will Scimitar's engineering teams be required for maintenance during those 48 hours? They can recieve 'downtime' when the Scimitar and fighter wing are in tip- top shape.

Ops_Ander says:
CEO: Coordinate with station Ops and engineering on that, Ensign.

Host StanleyCO says:
CTO: No. You will not even need security officers. The station will supply those. In fact, after this meeting I want you to talk with my chief tactical officer.

CEOCraven says:
Ops: Yes, sir.

Dr_Early says:
::injects a general antibiotic::

DeSotoXO says:
Ops: Oh, that could be something worth looking into. I am not sure if we have the things you might require for that. ::feels like jumping up and down to burn off some energy::

CTO_Bucha says:
Stanley: Acknowledged, sir.

Host StanleyCO says:
CTO: As I stated before, all Scimitar crewmembers will be on leave at the same time - no exceptions. I want you all rested.

Host StanleyCO says:
CTO, Roth: If there is nothing else, you are both dismissed.

CMOMcCell says:
::puts screen down on desk viewer and carries it into the main sickbay and places it on a worksurface:: Early: Come look at this.

Host XOBandra says:
::gets directions to base's sickbay from computer::

CTO_Bucha says:
::nods to Stanley and Roth:: All: Understood.

Ops_Ander says:
DeSoto: Actually, Commander, Earth Station McKinley took care of most of the work...I think 51 should be able to handle the rest. Staffing is mostly what we need.

CTO_Bucha says:
Stanley: So, where will I find your CTO at this time?

Dr_Early says:
::looks up at McCellan's comments and walks over to his side::

Host StanleyCO says:
CTO: More than likely at station Operations...as he is currently the watch officer.

DeSotoXO says:
Ops: Oh, I don't know what we can spare in that sense...crew will have to be requested from Starfleet, I would think. ::walks around the table and looks out the window::

Dr_Early says:
CMO: What do we have?

Host StanleyCO says:
::gets up::

Ops_Ander says:
::wonders, can this station really provide anything?::

CMOMcCell says:
Early: The sensor data we got from the Pakled ship shows delta radiation throughout the ship, and the occasional spike...our cause?

CTO_Bucha says:
Stanley: Shall I find him now, or do you wish for me to wait for his relief?

Ops_Ander says:
DeSoto: Then, if there's nothing else, sir...myself and Ensign Craven need to get to work.

Dr_Early says:
CMO: Hmmm, quite possible. Delta rays, no?

Host StanleyCO says:
::smiles:: CTO: I am his relief. ::motions for the CTO to exit his office::

DeSotoXO says:
Ops, CEO: You are both dismised. I believe you are all in for some shore leave. Check with your ACO.

Host XOBandra says:
::arrives in station's sickbay and asks to see Aurel::

Dr_Early says:
CMO: I think you're right. Let's begin treatment.

CTO_Bucha says:
::smiling::  Stanley: Of course, sir. ::exits office::

Ops_Ander says:
::comes to attention:: DeSoto: Aye, sir. ::motions for CEO to follow him...they head out the door::

Dr_Early says:
::medtech blocks XO from getting close to Ian-Bandra::

CEOCraven says:
::follows Andersen::

CMOMcCell says:
Early: Could be delta particles or waves...don't know yet. It exists in a state of wave-particle duality, doesn't it?

Host XOBandra says:
::takes her hand in his::
