CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::in her quarters picking some civilian clothes to wear on shore leave::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::On the bridge::  CO: Captain, all shifts have been scheduled to maintain the ship's systems online.

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
Self: I need to redecorate ::gets a flashing red dress and goes about changing::

CO Captain Sketek says:
XO: We should reduce the crew on duty to a minimum and let as many as possible enjoy from rest.

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::sits on the bed and straps matching shoes. Finally gets up looking into the mirror and adjusts her garments::

CTO Commander Senek says:
::Finishes changing and packing and gets to a transporter room to wait for beamdown::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CO: Understood, Sir. Permission to be relieved?

CO Captain Sketek says:
XO: Permission granted.

XO Commander Z’heta says:

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::exits onto the corridor and heads down to the turbo lift:: Computer: Transporter room 1

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::enters his quarters and adds klingon garment to his uniform::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::exits the lift as the doors open and makes her way to the actual room where she spots the CTO waiting:: CTO: Greetings Commander

CO Captain Sketek says:
::Leaves the bridge::

CTO Commander Senek says:
CSO: Greetings, Lieutenant. Even though using names on shore leave would probably me more proper.

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
::heads into quarters to grab a change of clothes::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::exits his quarters and heads for TR1::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CO* Captain I believe that the "minimum crew" means that you'll join us?

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
CTO: Force of habit Senek. Do you know what you will be visiting this time?

CO Captain Sketek says:
*XO* Yes, I will not stay on duty. I'll beam down shortly.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CO* Good to hear that.  See you soon, Sir. Z’heta out.

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
::Changes into something a little less formal and heads to the TL::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
CTO: Personally I am interested in a nice scenery and exotic food and drink

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
::Walks into TR1::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
CEO: Hello Conor

CO Captain Sketek says:
::Enters his quarters and changes to casual clothing::

CTO Commander Senek says:
CSO: I haven't decided yet. There's so much to see, and so little time.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::enters the TR1 and looks at the CSO:: CSO: Lovely, I say. It took me a second to recognize you.

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
CSO: Hello Laeena

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: I mean, you've always looked lovely... in a Starfleet adequate fashion...  ::feels that he has a foot in his mouth::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::looks up at the XO and smiles slightly:: XO: Thank you Riemann

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
::coughs::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::avoids the awkward moment:: All: shall we go down then?

CO Captain Sketek says:
::Takes a turbo lift to TR 1::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::Decides to change the subject:: CEO: Conor, ready for a klingon ale?  On me, of course.

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
XO: I don't think my stomach is fully healed after last time

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
CEO: I thought people from your corner of the Earth were rather resistant to alcohol

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CEO: If you were any other man, I'd force a drink into your mouth! ::winks::

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
CSO: I'd still manage to drink you under the table.

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
CEO: Want to prove that? I dare remind you I am half Vulcan.

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
CSO: You've got nothing on a decent Irish person, and I remember the last time we were on Risa.

CO Captain Sketek says:
::Arrives at the TR1::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
CEO: I let myself go ... when I want to, if I want to ::glances briefly at the XO::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
CO: Captain ::doesn’t resist standing at attention but then remembers its shore leave::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CO: Welcome.  We were just waiting to go together.

CO Captain Sketek says:
All: We're now on a shore leave so we can drop ranks and relax.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CTO: So, Senek, have you had time to analyse the Federation's new quantum torpedoes?

CO Captain Sketek says:
::Steps on a transporter pad:: TR chief: Energize.

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Scene: The sun breaks across the planet's curve and "Dawn spreads her fingertips of rose" -Homer "The Odyssey

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::nods as she is reminded of that again::

CTO Commander Senek says:
XO: I have, of course, taken a look at the new specifications.  Deeper analysis I've decided to make only after some rest

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::waits for the transporter beam to take over her molecules::

CTO Commander Senek says:
::Dematerializes::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::watches himself sparkling away::

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
::Fades away::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Scene: Molecules beams the crew into a bar near the Risan ocean

CO Captain Sketek says:
::Materializes on the planet::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Scene: It is an outdoor bar with a gentle zephyr breeze wafting in from the white surf

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::materialises overlooking the ocean::

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
::Pulls fancy sunglasses out of pocket and puts them on::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::Materializes::  CTO: Well, I'd love to hear your comment on the weapon developments.  Being half klingon makes me admire that technology.

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::grabs her dress's skirt as the gentle breeze blows a little too hard::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Scene: Numerous citizens from all corners of the Federation and its allies are mulling about entertaining themselves as shuttles come and go

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::glances at the CSO::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::clears her throat:: All: Shall we? ::heads for a table by the sand::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: No need to clear your throat, just let me get you a nice ale!

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: I'll gladly take it ... as medicine of course ::takes a seat::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: any preference?

CTO Commander Senek says:
XO: It's quite difficult to say anything definite, but the improvements are coming steadily and surely.

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Scene: Several patrons are renting jet boots

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: Your choice

CTO Commander Senek says:
XO: It seems that this particular revision is quite a minor improvement, though.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CTO: Great. ::smiles::

CO Captain Sketek says:
::Goes to order a drink::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
Barman: 2 Earth malted beers, please.  She's buying ::points at the beautiful CSO::

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
::Walks up beside the XO::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: just a soft drink that I've been recently introduced to.

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::rolls her eyes:: XO: And you have a bigger salary

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: I've had a number of ales...but not much from earth yet

CO Captain Sketek says:
Barman: A cup of Vulcan tea.

Host Barwolf says:
Scene: The Bartender turns around and is a new humanoid species descended from wolves

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: Just a joke, this one's on me.  

Host Barwolf says:
XO: Right here ::fluffs tail::

Host Barwolf says:
CO: Vulcan tea fresh off the shuttle

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::grabs the beers and offers one to the CSO:: Barwolf: thanks.

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::shakes her head and smiles, then whispers:: XO: Exotic barman, very ... hairy

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CEO: Hey Conor, want a beer?

Host Barwolf says:
::fluffs his pointed ears and thinks he is a particularly handsome wolf::

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
XO: Why not

Host Barwolf says:
CSO: I heard that

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: In deed.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: Handsome in a wild manner, isn't he?

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
Barman: Oh...I....didn’t mean anything by it, hairy creatures are rather...interesting ::winks::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::nods energetically at the XO::

CTO Commander Senek says:
Barwolf: Something cold.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
Barwolf: Mr Bartender, give my friend here another of you pleasant cold beers, will you?  ::points to the CEO::

Host Barwolf says:
CSO: Uh huh, I think I bear a striking resemblance to the Egyptian god Anubis, my kind of guy

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: I mean, handsome but not quite my type.

Host Barwolf says:
CTO: Being a vulcan perhaps water?

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
Barwolf: Gods...great creatures

Host Barwolf says:
CSO: But of course

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: Good ...

CTO Commander Senek says:
Barwolf: That's fine.

Host Barwolf says:
::pours some water for the CTO and offers him some vegetables::

CTO Commander Senek says:
::Wonders if Barwolf is making fun of him, but takes some vegetables anyway::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: I think I needed some time off, after last mission...

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: Are you enjoying this weather?  Being only half klingon, I just happen to love this climate.

Host Barwolf says:
::polishes his bar, combs his fur::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: I see.  I'll take a look at your shift schedule, but surely you have earned some days off.

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: Its good, I am used to the warmth, much like in vulcan where I grew up

Host Barwolf says:
::turns on the grill and opens a package labelled "Grade A Beef from Earth"   ::now we're talking he thinks to himself::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: Thank you but I have much work to do. I am afraid all I can do with is tonight

XO Commander Z’heta says:
Barwolf: Mr Wolf barman sir, do you have a klingon root beer for me?

CEO Lieutenant Conor says:
::Drinks his beer while messing with the visible colour spectrum in his sunglasses::

Host Barwolf says:
XO: Yes a warrior species I've read about you, here you go, your people have a rich culture

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: only one night? ::looks disappointed::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
Barwolf: Thank you.  In need!  But don't get me started or I'll sing one of my favourite klingon operas!

CO Captain Sketek says:
::Sitting and watching the beautiful scenery::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: A lot can be done ... in one night ::sips her drink::

Host Barwolf says:
::puts a burger on the grill, cuts up some hash browns, mixes a few eggs, gets ready for the dinner crowd:::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: Good stuff, though not very strong

Host Barwolf says:
::tosses a beach ball to some local children::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::gets a bit dizzy, not knowing for sure if Barwolf added to much synthool of if the CSO's perfume is getting on him too strong::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: Come on, let's enjoy Risa! ::Grabs the CSO's hand and stands up::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::is surprised by the sudden jump but then tags along:: XO: Certainly...what do you have in mind?

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: Oh, just let get a closer look at the Sea.  ::Starts walking::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::walks with him, then stops:: XO: Wait!

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::drinks the beer::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: Yes... ?

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::takes off her high heal shoes and leaves them there on the beach:: XO: Much better, lets go

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: You do have a style!  ::decides to follow the CSO's lead and takes of his klingon garment::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: I am a Starfleet officer, style is part of the job prescription.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: If your as fast with your sensors as you are with your wits, I reckon you'll make admiral in no time!

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::sits in the sand by the water:: XO: I don't think so, I am not much of a leader

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: in that case, just follow me.  And leadership can be learned.

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: Follow you? I think I already did ::smiles briefly:: XO: If that is the case, I have much to learn

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: Have you studied marine biology?

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: Yes of course, of many worlds

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: Care to research some more? ::having said that, runs a bit and makes an impressive dive on the calm waters of Risa's sea::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: Great temperature!  I'm waiting for ya!

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
::frowns, hesitating for a moment::

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
Self: Why not, goes to the water, clothes on and all

CSO Lieutenant JG Saprin says:
XO: Not bad, not bad at all. I wonder why the others won't join us

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CSO: you're right.  ::shouts to the shore:: ALL: Want to join us?

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::throws water to the CSO:: CSO: There you go! ::laughs::
