Summary:
A little battered, but none the worse for wear, the USS Andromeda docks with Starbase 121. Less "frontier" and more "backwoods," Starbase 121 itself is continuously dealing with its own mechanical failures, as demonstrated in their difficulty locking mooring clamps in place, requiring three tries before successfully locking onto the Andromeda.

The time is 13:59.

CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::on the bridge at the Science station, watching local traffic:: Aloud: Station relative stop confirmed.
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
@::waiting outside the docking hatch for a bit now and finally the light turns green::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 CSO: Am I the only one concerned about a SB who takes three attempts to engage the mooring clamps? 
 SO_Ens_Keena says: 
 @::Rushes into the station-side docking bay, stopping at its threshhold only long enough to location Ensign Ryan:: 
 CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Checking over systems down in engineering. Wondering when the stations power will be connected.::
 SO_Ens_Keena says: 
  @::Takes a deep breath and strides right up to Ryan, placing a hand on her shoulder to gently turn her around to face him:: SO: Valerie!  
 SO_Ens_Ryan says:
@::takes a step forward only to see the light go blinking red again::
HLM_Lt_Gallagher says:
XO: Docking clamps... ::Unsure at best:: ...secure. ::Relays the word to engineering::
Station_OPS says:
 @COM: Andromeda: OPS: Welcome aboard, Andromeda! 
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
Keena: Ensign Keena? What are you doing here? ::smiles and looks at the light again::
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Taps his comm badge.:: *XO*: Commander when can we expect external power from the station?
 SO_Ens_Keena says: 
  @SO: I just...I had to see you before you left. Look... I really am glad you're being posted to the Andromeda. You deserve it.  
 XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
HLM_Lt_Gallagher: Your confidence is truly inspiring. Keep the engines warm just in case.
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Taps a few more buttons on the console before giving it a good thump with his finger.::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 *CEO* Once they figure out how to securely keep the mooring clamps in place. 

 ACTION: 
Several lights flicker from red to green, back to red again...before finally flipping to a solid green. Station power is On.

HLM_Lt_Gallagher says:
::Chuckles a moment, then realizes he isn't qutie sure whether or not the first officer is serious:: XO: Ayesir.
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 *Station_OPS* Thanks for the welcome. What is the deal with the mooring clamp issues? Should I be looking for a new parking spot? 
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
*XO*: Should I plan to beam over and help them out? ::Laughs a bit.:: Understood Commander.
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
@Keena: Thanks. I'm so surprised but really excited. Did you have someone to see aboard?
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Notices the station power come online, but keeps the Andromeda on internal generators.::
Station_OPS says:
 @*XO*: Just an ongoing...issue. We've worked through it for now. Forward your quarter-masters requests to my department; we'll get you what you need and out of here again before you know it. 
SO_PO_Vosten says:
@::Regards Ryan and Keena with a raised eyebrow, nervously tapping his foot as he waits for the hatch to finally show green again::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 *Station OPS* Anything we can help out with? In the meantime our OPS chief will start sending over the paperwork. 
SO_Ens_Keena says:
@SO: Only you, Valerie. ::Continues, strangely non-sequitur:: You're ingenuitive, kind, whip-smart...and I trust you, immensely. ::Drops his hands to her left hand, gently uncurling her fingers, revealing her open palm:: But...
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 *CEO* Undisclosed issues which they've "worked through", don't rely entirely on them for stable power. 
Station_OPS says:
@*XO*: We appreciate the offer, Commander, but our orders from you Captain say to keep you here as little as possible. We want to honor that. Don't worry, we take care of our own, one way or another.
 SO_Ens_Keena says: 
  @SO: ::Drops to one knee in front of her:: ...but there's something you need to know.  
 SO_Ens_Ryan says:
@::feels like taking a step back:: Keena: Err...
TO_Crew_Eldemire says:
@::Takes a half-step back from the hatch, humming increasingly loudly to himself to avoid overtly eavesdropping::
 SO_Ens_Keena says: 
  @::Doesn't speak, just slips a small platinum band, a simple setting for a seemingly princess-cut crystal nearly a centimeter across, into her palm, curling her hand up around it::  
 XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
*Starbase OPS*: Fair enough, I believe we have some crew rotation due. Going to get that underway. Andromeda out.
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
@::stammers:: Keena: Wh-what is this for? I really should... ::looks frantically at the light that turned green::
MO_Ens_T’Rhick says:
 @::Starts to notice the odd commotion around the two science officers, and takes a few steps away from them, leaning against the wall somewhere else:: 
SO_Ens_Keena says:
@::Stands to his feet, wrapping his arms around Ryan's shoulders in a gentle hug, bringing his lips close to her ear, where he whispers::
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
@::listens to whisper and takes in a deep breath::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 OPS: Send the paperwork and let every department know they have 3 hours to get whatever they need. And keep the docking port closed unless actually required. I do not trust the SB's engineering team based on what I've seen so far. 
SO_Ens_Keena says:
@::Releases Ryan, keeping his hands around her own, as he takes a step back and smiles boyishly:: SO: So...what do you say, Valerie?
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
@Keena: I really had -- no idea, I wasn't expecting this... ::gulps:: Keena: Yes.
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Continues to monitor the power keping the Andromeda running on internal power.:: *XO*: Roger that Commander. I'm keeping us on internal power. Will run internal generators at low power while we are docked. Its a lot better then having to wait for a cold power up if Station power fails.

 @ACTION: 
The crowd in the starbase docking bay suddenly lets up a cheer, the building tension as they've guessed what was happening erupting in applause for the happy couple

XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 ::picks up a PADD resting on the armrest and begins reviewing the planned crew rotations:: 
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
*CEO* Right good work. You have about 3 hours to get whatever you need before we're out of here.
SO_PO_Vosten says:
@::Elbows Eldemire, then whispers discreetly:: TO: This is gonna go--oh, huh. ::Scratches his chin:: I was going to open at three-to-one she'd say "no."
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 CSO: Same goes for you 

 ACTION: 
As the station and Andromeda computers sync, a message flickers across Conor's console: "Conor, I've got info you wanted. Meet me at the Crossing Grill, back corner, 14:15. Don't be late. --Jeff."

SO_Ens_Ryan says:
@::goes wide-eyed at the cheering. And the stomping. And the whistling. People are waiting::
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::brushes off her hands checking that the sensors were on 'standby' mode:: OPS: You sould already have my requisisiton lists with priority items flagged orange.

 @ACTION: 
After a minute, the station ruckus dies down, with the crowd dispersing for the most part, a few other ensigns patting Ryan on the back as they pass, making their way onto the Andromeda. 

TO_Crew_Eldemire says:
@::Gives Vosten a sharp look, coldly shrugging her bag back onto her shoulder::
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::nods:: XO: Don't leave without me, sir.
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 CSO: Don't give me any ideas ::smirks:: 
SO_Ens_Keena says:
@::Looks to Ryan with deep appreciation:: SO: ...This means...so much to me. Thank you, Valerie. ::Leans forward and places a peck of a kiss on her cheek, then releases her hands, and turns away to head back to the station::
Saask says:
@::Takes a moment to appraise the crowd and the purpose for it as he passes by the section, but continues onward, looking typically stoic and Vulcan::
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::brushes off her hands again and checks the science department's status, then picks up a small locked sample case from under her station before heading to the turbolift::
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
@Self: I don't even get a kiss out of that? ::totally flabbergasted, steps back into the opening hatch::
TO_Crew_Eldemire says:
@::Nods to Saask as he passes by, as he's encountered the man aboard station for a few days now:: Vosten: Let's just go. Please. ::Passes her papers over to the chief and waits for approval to board::
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Exits engineering with PADD in hand.:: *XO*: Already on it sir. I'm going to go and see what the station has to offer us, but I'm not holding my breath. With as old as the Andromeda is I'm not counting on this backwoods pit stop having some of the things we need.
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 OPS: Let all department heads they're cleared for starbase access but if they're not back in three hours we're leaving them behind. 
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
@::shows her orders to the security guard and finally steps aboard::
EO_Ens_Woolworth says:
@::Completes his diagnostic of the docking airlock...just to make sure things didn't go like they did the last time someone docked here...glances around furtively, then closes his tricorder and heads off, back toward the station::
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Finds the nearest turbo lift and enters.:: TL: Docking hatch 2.
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::steps onto the lift:: TL: Main Airlock.
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 ::quickly glances through the list of new crew assignments:: All: Now if you'll excuse me I have some new crew members to terrify. OPS: You have the bridge 
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::hmms a little tune while he waits for the turbo lift to arrive at the docking level.::
EO_Ens_Woolworth says:
@::Glances to the chrono on his PADD for the time, and is pleased to discover that his shift is finally over::
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
::Heads for the bridge figuring she ought to report to someone before... before she deals with the ring::
OPS_Lt_Matthews says:
 ::Nods:: XO: Understood, Sir. 
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Exits the lift as it open and enters a short line of crew waiting to exit the ship.::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 ::summons the TL:: 
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
::Steps into the TL:: TL: Docking port
EO_CPO_Gallard says:
@::Emerges from the Andromeda's airlock, immediately spotting Woolworth:: EO: Hey! Wooly!
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
::Enters the TL and soon steps on the bridge:: OPS: Ensign Ryan reporting for duty, Sir.
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 ::walks up to the docking port and pockets a tricorder and phaser and heads towards the SB:: 
EO_Ens_Woolworth says:
@Gallard: Mister Gallard! Wow, what a surprise! ::Extends his hand, which Gallard shakes vigorously::
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
@::Exits onto the stations docking ring and follows the information wall to the engineering supply hub.::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 @::steps aboard the station and checks the station directory for a list of grills in the area and finds the one he's looking for:: 
EO_CPO_Gallard
@::Goodnaturedly:: Woolworth: What did you do, man? First assignment out of the Academy and they stuff you here.
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::steps off the turbo lift, her sample kit tucked securely under her arm. She walks quickly towards the station::
OPS_Lt_Matthews says:
 ::Looks up:: SO: Oh, Ensign Ryan. I'm surprised to see you here. I'm pretty sure Ensign Ivara just went to the docking bay looking for you. Commander Power is headed there as well. You might try heading back there. 
MO_Ens_T’Rhick says:
::Glances around the docking bay again, still waiting to see someone emerge from the Andromeda::
TO_Crew_Eldemire says:
@::Barges back out of the Andromeda's airlock:: Self: Can't believe I didn't sync my PADDs! ::Nearly barges into both Woolworth and Gallard for a two-pin spare, but deftly avoids them at the last second and continues barging straight toward the nearby bar and grill::
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
OPS: Thanks, I'll catch up as fast as I can! Self: The day is getting complicated for sure.
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::checks something on a PADD, turns on her heal and strides against the general flow of traffic towards one of the non-federation medical supply storefronts::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 @::steps into the Crossing grill and quickly looks around for the darkest corner:: 
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
::Retraces her path to the docking port::
TO_Crew_Eldemire says:
@::Continues through the thick crowd of people...busy for this time of day:: Aloud: Excuse me, has anyone seen a PADD around here, registered to G. Eldemire?
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 @::fiddles with his comm badge once he sees the man he's looking for and heads over to the corner with the lone man drinking something expensive looking:: 
Saask says:
@::Moves along toward Eldemire, though his eyes are focused elsewhere, and hands him the PADD, which he found upon sitting down at one of the exterior tables:: Eldemire: Here you are, Ensign. Live long and prosper. ::Continues to pass by, quite obliviously::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 @::glances around him before taking a seat:: Jeff: Was surprised to hear from you after all this time. 
MO_Ens_T'Rhick says:
::Suddenly stands away from the wall as he spots his quarry exiting the Andromeda::
TO_Crew_Eldemire says:
@Saask: Thank...you? ::Thinks something must be up, for a Vulcan to be so distracted, but shrugs and continues to barge back toward the Andromeda::
 Jeff says:
 @::Stands a little, clapping Conor on the shoulder before settling back into his seat:: XO: Conor! Good to see you too. ::Gives him a once over:: You're certainly no kid anymore. ::Grins:: 
EO_Ens_Woolworth says:
@::Smiles for a moment, then it fades, and he starts to turn away::
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::enters the second hand medical equipment store and begins looking around for anything from the Chalak, or long range life form sensors.::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
@Jeff: I've put on a little weight since then. 
EO_CPO_Gallard says:
@::Stands there a moment, analyzing, then realizes he's accidentally hit a nerve...something must have gone wrong before graduation:: Woolworth: Oh, hey...I'm sorry. If something's wrong, I hadn't heard about it.
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
@::Continues walking down the docking ring.::
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
@::Find the station lift and orders it to the engineering levels.::
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
::Looks around the docking port for a clue::
Saask says:
 ::Approaches the same storefront in front of which Ivara stands, and casually slips his hand up to the side of her neck::
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Hums a little ditty about Jack and Diane as he waits for the right level.::
 Jeff says:
 ::Chuckles:: XO: Happens to the best of us. Listen, I got your message. That's a pretty deep pool you're trying to sip. 

 ACTION: 
The Vulcan's hand clamps down on Ivara's neck. But rather than entirely incapacitating her, Ivara's unique Romulan/Cardassian physiology causes her muscles to spasm, but she remains conscious.

XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
Jeff: I prefer the number of people with a shady background on my ship to be limited to one.
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Exits the lift and enters the large open area.::
 Jeff says:
 ::Knocks down a shot and looks up:: XO: You? 
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::feels the nerve pinch and lets out a grunt of surprise, then drops to the ground as if the pinch had worked, her eyes closed but her other senses taking in the surroundings calmly::
Saask says:
::Calmly guides Ivara along, holding her up without attracting much attention, and moves her along toward a nearby corridor that branches off toward the living quarters::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
::signals at the bar tender for a drink:: Jeff: I plead the 5th.
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
::Spots someone she's pretty sure she's met before and takes in the scene as the woman falls to the ground::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 Jeff: But enough about me. What about her? 
Saask says:
 ::Didn't expect quite this level of...non-resistance...but nevertheless continues on unabated down the relatively empty corridor, still going to considerable effort to make this all seem quite natural and unimportant, even though that effort is going rather poorly::
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
CSO: Ivara! What's going on! ::starts running in the direction the woman is being taken::
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::loosely dangles an arm towards her own belt, knocking her tricorder to the ground loudly, going along with the situation for now, learning.::
Saask says:
 ::Punches his access codes into one of the quarters directly around the corner, and slips inside, hoping the doors shut before whoever's seen and gives chase catches up with him, locking the doors afterward::
 Jeff says:
 ::Drops the glass to the table and squares himself:: XO: Listen, you want to get mixed up with this individual - or just don't have a choice - that's your problem. If you want information...well, that's your problem too. Her files are classified with levels you wouldn't believe...and I doubt anyone, even me, could peel back the layers with typical access.
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
::Comes crashing into the wall for taking the corner at a run. The hall is empty!::
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::feels them stop at a door and peaks watching him punch in the access codes::
Saask says:
 ::Carefully sets Ivara down in a thin chair, then quickly takes a length of rope out from his robes and binds her hands behind the chair...primitive, but efficient::
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Taps in a few commands into the stations quartermaster list and compares items to what he is looking for on his PADD.::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 Jeff: Who should I be talking to then? Who controls access to those files? 
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
::Feels totally out of her depths as her day goes topsy-turvy::
 Jeff says:
 ::Grins:: XO: Oh, you still came to the right man. As far as who controls the files? I don't think any one individual, that's what makes it so hard to circumvent. But I do know people who excel at circumventing even the uncircumventable. But that all depends... 
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
Jeff: I'm not sure I like where this is going... but go on..
 Jeff says:
XO: How many people with a shady present will you allow on your ship? ::Tilts his way in a fashion that implies he's not exactly asking for a transfer to the Andromeda:: 
Saask says:
 ::Takes out a tricorder and begins to scan Ivara, immediately raising an eyebrow:: Ivara: You may cease your ruse -- observation is logical, and I would do no differently in these circumstances. ::Continues to make his way around the room, which is lit only near the back by a small desk lamp::
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
Self: I should call Station Security. Was it even her? What did I really see?
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 ::turns and looks at Jeff:: Jeff: Just exactly are you asking for here? 
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::holds her hands at an angel as the person binds her, just to give herself a little leverage later:: Saask: How may I help you?
EO_Ens_Woolworth says:
 Gallard: C'mon...I'm gonna go to the QM's to file my inventory for the day and clock out. We'll talk on the way.

ACTION:
 ACTION: A rather routine power spike causes the lights to flicker, from the docking ring through to the engineering hub. The regular station personnel don't even pay attention. 

EO_CPO_Gallard says:
 ::Can't find any words, just nods solemnly and follows Woolworth::
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Looks at the lights as they flicker then returns to the quartermasters list.::
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
::Notices the flicker with a frown and shrug, but only because it didn't happen to the door closest to her. It should have. What is going on?::
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Pauses and looks around the room noticing no one else seems to care.::
Saask says:
CSO: You have already completed your particular active role in this matter. I advise you simply sit back and relax, though I thank you for your regards and cooperation. ::Opens a box on his desk and takes out some sort of device::
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
::Punches the door chime, annoyed with her own indecision::
 Jeff says:
XO: You want to play dice with these people, you've got to bring your own dice. You want information on her, you need to be willing to share some information of your own. That's enough...for now. 
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
Self: Bloody shabby maintenance around this hole. ::Shakes his head and scrolls through the list not seeing anything of use at this point.::

 ACTION:
ACTION: As Ryan punches the chime, it punches back - in the form of a jolt of electricity shooting through her system, knocking her through the air and against the next wall, before she slides to the ground. 

CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::sits back in her chair seemingly relaxed and calm, her eyes darting around the room taking in as much detail as she can, clearly her captor was a Vulcan, and was most likely working towards logical ends, resistance at this point would only result in injury.:: Saask: So you know I am expected back aboard with equipment in about thirty minutes...
EO_CPO_Gallard says:
 ::Approaches the quartermaster's office, and spots McQuade:: CEO: Oh, hello Sir. Should have figured you'd come straight here.
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
Saask: So I would appreciate it if we could wrap this up.
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
Jeff: Who are these people? You're being exceptionally vague and unhelpful even by your typical standards.
Saask says:
 CSO: A logical concern, but I am already well ahead of schedule. ::Applies a hypospray to the back of Ivara's neck::
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
::rolls with a groan, she fell across her duffle bag at least::
ACTION:
 ACTION: As the medicine spreads through Ivara's body, she loses all tactile sensation - her body going numb - although she remains curiously conscious. 
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Nods to EO_Gallard.:: EO: Yes I thought I would see if there was anything we could use, but.... ::Trails off going to the next page of the list.:: Unless we want 500 tons of chromatic beads or 120 meters of copper tube I think we should just move on.
 Jeff says:
 ::Shrugs:: Just a few of us who've decided not to let shadowy organizations like this one - the one you're up against - go unchecked. But that requires some vaguity, yes. They're pervasive, and we have to be careful. 
Saask says:
 CSO: This numbing agent will last for about fifteen minutes, after which it will disappear from your system. It is merely an added precaution – your chair is bolted to the floor, and there is no standard means of escape. However, I do require that you be awake for this particular operation.
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 Jeff: Saying I’m outside the circle in this little operation of yours then? 
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
::Tries to rise to her knees, shaking her head slowly. Something hard is wedged under her knee. Ryan moves and casts around. She finds the ring::
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::blinks a few times, quashing the fear with curiosity:: Saask: So for whom do you work?
 Jeff says:
 ::Shrugs:: XO: Then no harm, no foul. But if you want our help, you need to at least ride the perimeter. A fair exchange of information. And we’re even willing to give you ours up-front. 
 Jeff says:
::Downs another shot, then stands:: XO: Think about it.
Saask says:
 CSO: I am self-employed. ::Finally starts to make his way back around to Ivara through the darkness, his footsteps getting closer::
EO_CPO_Gallard says:
 CEO: Copper tube...? ::Glances to Woolworth with a quizzical expression::
EO_Ens_Woolworth says:
 Gallard: Don't look at me. I just work here. ::Enters his access code to get into the storeroom, and disappears momentarily::
XO_LtCmdr_Conor says:
 ::turns to face Jeff as he's leaving:: Jeff: Still reachable by the usual methods then? 
SEO_Ens_Milton says:
::Strides up to the quartermaster's desk, thudding a PADD there:: QM: Hey Mike! Got another anomaly, on the docking ring. Power surge near took out the deck. All the doors in the entire section are offline and unlocked.
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
Self: Now I need station security and engineering. With any luck I might even get to report to my ship before everything blows up?
SEO_Ens_Milton says:
 ::Syncs the PADD to the display, revealing a layout of the deck, symbols indicating all the doors are offline except one:: 
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::Begins to regret letting her curiosity get the better of her.:: Aloud: So what are you going to do to me?
SEO_Ens_Milton says:
 QM: So you'd you give a portable power generator to? 
Saask says:
 CSO: I cannot divulge the full scale of that information, but please rest assured that no harm will come to you. You should meet your time table of return to the Andromeda within a small margin of error.
SO_Ens_Ryan says:
::touches commbadge:: *ENG*: Anyone this is Ensign Ryan in hall 31-A. We had a power surge here, knocked me out good for a second.
Saask says:
 ::Walks around in front of Ivara, completely obscured by the darkness -- then flips on a small headband beacon, which is blinding by comparison, and begins reaching out, evidently to press something to Ivara's forehead, though she cannot feel it::
CSO_Ens_Ivara says:
::blinks a few times:: Saask: Considering the accumulated time and my current lack of success with finding the equipment I seriously doubt that I will return according to my planned timetable. What is your name?
CEO_Ens_McQuade says:
::Finishes looking through the quartermasters list disappointed at the results.:: EO: Well looks like we will be manufacturing some of our own spares. Have a good day.
Jeff says:
 ::Nods, and walks away:: 
Saask says:
 ::Once the leads for the Romulan mind probe are in place, walks away again to the desk, and activates the device::
