Host Susan says:
   After capturing the Ferengi trader, Daimon Nork the children that he was holding in a shielded area were freed.  Lt. Bodine debriefed the children and found that at least one of them had hired Nork to take them off the station.  Captain Regnum and Lt. Jankara interrogated Nork, who refused to talk.  Lt. Walker was able to hack the freighter's computer system, where he learned of the Daimon's real threat.  He had explosives and plans to destroy the station.  Once the situation was secured, he also found that the Daimon had plans to sell the children to Orion slavers.  With the children returned to their families, the prisoners taken care of, and the station returning to normal, the crew awaits the relief crew from Beta shift.

TO_MJDoole says:
   ::pulls a diffused and useless explosive from a pouch and hands it to the Captain::

Jenise says:
   XO: That sounds like a marvelous idea.  What are your plans for this evening?
CEO_Hoyt says:
   Bartender: Give me a Bajoran ale...
CO_Regnum says:
   ::takes the explosive and grins:: TO/OPS: Never say never gentlemen. There are some Betazoids I'd tell you the same thing about, but I hope you feel you can trust me. I try not to judge an entire species by the actions of some individuals.  Now their culture that I'd agree with you on.
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   Jenise: I think I will go tour the station.  You know, I never really got the chance to see the entire thing.  I guess I should see the place, at least once.
OPS_Walker says:
   CO/TO: ::chuckles:: Yes Sir.  ::smirks::
CO_Regnum says:
   TO/OPS: But I happen to think that even that may change. The new Nagus just may turn their culture around eventually.

   Computer: Locate commander T’Lok.

Host Bartender says:
   ::pours the ale and takes it over to the CEO:: CEO: The room in the back has been reserved, go on back.
CEO_Hoyt says:

CO_Regnum says:
   TO: One can indeed. Thank you for this reminder of our little incident however; it's just the memento the shelf in my office needs to start to build my life here.
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   Jenise: That, my dear, will never happen.  I am in love with but one woman, and she is the most beautiful woman in the known, or even the unknown universe! ::Gives his wife a huge grin::
Jenise says:

CEO_Hoyt says:
   Bartender: For what?
CIV_Bodine says:

CEO_Hoyt says:
   Quartet: Beethoven’s Fifth...if you don't mind ::grabs a plate and starts to fill it::
CO_Regnum says:
   TO/CMO/OPS: Yes, we should be going.  Lieutenant Hoyt must be bored of waiting for us by now.
Host Bartender says:
   ACTION:  The lift arrives at the promenade.
CIV_Bodine says:
   XO: You and I seem to have something in common now though sir.
TO_MJDoole says:
   OPS: Right with you...and off duty...I'm just MJ.
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   CIV: And what might that be?
OPS_Walker says:
   CO/TO/CMO:  This way, gentlemen. ::bows like a porter:: TO:  Johnny then.  ::smiles::
CEO_Hoyt says:
   ::sips on his ale:: Self: Wonder what we did to deserve this?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   ::Sighs:: CIV: She is a tough woman, and very stubborn.

CO_Regnum says:
   ::follows the crowd::
Host Bartender says:
   ACTION:  Time Lapse:  ALL senior staff that are going, have arrived at Arcadia's.
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   CIV: Well, She will come around in her own time.  Sometimes, its best to leave someone alone for a while.
CEO_Hoyt says:
   ::takes a bite of his salad and sips his ale again::
TO_MJDoole says:
   ::raises a curious eyebrow at being called Johnny::
OPS_Walker says:
   ::looks deadpan at the TO for a second then laughs:: TO: No no no no no no...I mean call me Johnny.
CIV_Bodine says:
   XO: I wanted to ask that very thing, if you thought I should go straight to her or give her time? I don't mean to pry but I wonder about my chances is all, how are things progressing between you two?
OPS_Walker says:
   TO:  ::chuckling:: Sorry, MJ.  My bad.
CEO_Hoyt says:
   OPS: Walker...over here.
CEO_Hoyt says:

   CIV/Bartender: I am celebrating life, and good friends.  I just want everyone to know that even though I just met a lot of you, I consider you all friends, even family.
CIV_Bodine says:
   Bartender: Thanks, ::with a smile::
CEO_Hoyt says:
   OPS: You and Jankara are going to be there right?
Host Bartender says:
   ALL: The drinks have already been paid for, so no tabs tonight.  ::gives Doole his drink:: TO: You're a new face in here.  CMO: You too, I believe.
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   ::Grabs the mug of blood wine, and takes a big drink::
CMO_Burton says:
   Bartender: Thank you very much.
Host Bartender says:
   CO: What can I get for you, Captain?
OPS_Walker says:
   CEO:  Well...I can't see missing it if I'm the best man.  I won't speak for Jaina.
TO_MJDoole says:
   Bartender: Yea. Only been on the station a few months. Thanks for the drink ::walks off::
CMO_Burton says:
   Bartender: First day on the station to be exact. I'm the new doctor here.
CO_Regnum says:
   Bartender: I'd like a cola please, I'm not really in the mood for synthehol.
OPS_Walker says:
   ::looks over at Sally::  Bartender: Paid for?  By whom?
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   ::Turns to see the CO:: CO: Sir!  Before I let the blood wine get to my head, I just to tell you that it has been an honor, and a privilege, working for you.
CEO_Hoyt says:
   OPS: Jazra and I would like you and her, and you too, Captain, and your wife to take care of our twins if Jazra and I should die.
Host Bartender says:
   CMO: Well then, welcome aboard.  ::smiles as she gives the CO his cola::
CIV_Bodine says:
   ::turns his attention to Commander T’Lok and Captain Regnum::
Host Bartender says:
   OPS: Does the name Hamilton sound familiar?  I think Lan said something about the Admiral.
TO_MJDoole says:
   ::sits in a corner by myself::
TO_MJDoole says:
   ::thinking::
Host Bartender says:
   OPS: She has only been here once or twice and kept to herself.
CMO_Burton says:
   Bartender: Kurt Burton's the name, pleased to meet you.
CO_Regnum says:
   XO: The honor has been mine Commander.
CEO_Hoyt says:
   ALL: Yeah Admiral Melanie Hamilton.
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   CO: Now, who will keep you on your toes?
Host Bartender says:
   CO: If you prefer, I have a few bottles of the real thing.  I keep them for special customers.  
CIV_Bodine says:
   ::sips back some of his hot chocolate careful not to burn his tongue:: XO: Commander, going somewhere sir?
CEO_Hoyt says:
   ::finishes off his first ale:: OPS: Just wish Jazra was here.
CO_Regnum says:
   XO: I'm not sure yet, I'm still reviewing the applicants. You will make sure and say hello to the Bynars for me.
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   CO: Of course, Sir.
CO_Regnum says:
   Bartender: Well if you have some good ole fashioned Rum, I'd love to add a bit to my coke.
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   CIV: I guess you haven’t heard the news yet Mr. Bodine.  I am going back to the Scorpius.
CIV_Bodine says
   XO: Really.... and, you are giving up your command post sir?
Host Bartender says:
   ::nods:: CO: Certainly, gold or spiced?  ::pulls out a couple of bottles and prepares to pour::
CMO_Burton says:
   ::Looking at his new surroundings and surveying the occupants::
OPS_Walker says:
   Bartender:  Sally, you got a deck of cards back there?  And some poker chips?
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   CIV: No.  The Exec spot on the Scorp has opened up.  Commander Horn has taken over as Captain.
TO_MJDoole says:
   ::sliding my  Deadlock back and forth across the table between my hands, not drinking::
CEO_Hoyt says:
   OPS: Poker?
OPS_Walker says:
   CEO:  Why not? The drinks are paid for!

   OPS: Sure thing Johnny, there is a table already set up in the corner.  Several decks of cards ready to go.  ::smiles::
CEO_Hoyt says:

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   ::Takes the hand of the CIV, and shakes it vigorously::
CMO_Burton says:
   CEO/OPS: Did I hear someone say poker. Mind if I sit in?
CEO_Hoyt says:
   ::sits down at a seat at the table:: OPS: You want to loose your money Johnny.  That’s okay.
Host Bartender says:
   ::pours herself a shot of spiced rum and lifts her glass:: CO: Cheers ::smiles before drinking her rum::

   CMO: Be my guest.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   CIV: I understand that the former CMO of the station will be returning.  From what I hear, he is giving up medicine.  It will be interesting to find out what department he chooses to transfer to.
CEO_Hoyt says:
   OPS: That's not what happened at the Academy from what I hear.
CMO_Burton says:
   CEO/OPS: Who's rules…Klingon, Terran or Ferengi?
TO_MJDoole says:
   ::watches the table and the drink fly::

CEO_Hoyt says:
   ALL: Who's dealer?
TO_MJDoole says:
 Self:: Oops!
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:

OPS_Walker says:
   ALL:  Oooh!  Looks like the good doctor deals!
CMO_Burton says:
   ALL: Just beginners luck, that's all.
TO_MJDoole says:
   CIV: I know. ::looks across the room:: CO: Captain. Can I see you a second?
OPS_Walker says:
  ALL:  I've heard that line before. ::frowns::
CMO_Burton says:
   ALL: Let's keep it simple, just old fashioned earth five card draw.
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   OPS: Don't feel bad.  I've heard that line also, but it never applied to me.
CIV_Bodine says:
   ::twists his wrist cuffs nervously:: TO: Some times we do lose loved ones too. And ourselves are at even higher risk.
OPS_Walker says:
   XO:  I've heard THAT line before too.  ::chuckles::
XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
   ::cracks his knuckles as he prepares to play the game::
CIV_Bodine says:
   TO: Leave the Captain, for now, he like you needs his relief. He has found his in a deck of cards. You find yours dismantling tables. Although that would be safer for everyone if you did it on the holodecks.
CIV_Bodine says:
   TO: I find my peace talking about it.
TO_MJDoole says:
   CIV: When it comes to me, I welcome it. When it involves my children...it's not a risk I want to play.
OPS_Walker says:
   ::Looks at his cards and keeps his face pleasantly vacant::

CO_Regnum says:
   TO: Did you needs something Lieutenant?
CIV_Bodine says:
   TO: You have to send them away from your work. Somewhere safe from your work. If you can't bare to do that you have two choices live with the risk or you can resign and join them.
CIV_Bodine says:

TO_MJDoole says:
   CO: In light of recent events, I am requesting that you allow me to pack up my twin children and send them and their nursemaid Dr. Jo Bells to be with Lieutenant Commander Tigs T. Ravenprowler on Avalon Station
CO_Regnum says:
   TO: You have my permission if you want it, though I'm not sure they would be any safer on Avalon Station as they are here. Stations in general are safer then ships, but one station to another is going to be just as dangerous
OPS_Walker says:
   ::waits patiently for the CO to return::  Bartender:  Sally...you got any cigars back there?
