Host Nick says:
Previously on Arcadia
Host Nick says:
Delegations from the Olais and the Klingon Empire arrived, and unlike last time, nothing blew up
Host Nick says:
Even more amazing, is that after 8 hours of negotiations, while things have gotten heated, still nothing and nobody has blown up, and the session has just broke.
Host Nick says:
The delegates and senior staff are on their way to a banquet prepared, and then the delegates will retire to their vessels until tomorrow

FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
::stands in her Dress uniform her fur brushed to a shine her tail slightly swaying::
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
::Contacts her Security detail and lets them know the delegation is moving to the banquet and to prepare to receive them::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
::next to Teyla:: FCO: Never been to one of these sorts of functions.
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
::Walks into the banquet room to inspect the area, dressed in the required white uniform, but still carrying her phaser and wearing not only her Starfleet medals, but the badge of the House of Korloth, her adoptive Klingon house::
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Adjusts her uniform and checks her pocket phaser. She then leaves her quarters heading for the banquet hall.::
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
OPS: nor have I well not a Diplomatic Banquet anyway.
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Adjusts the usual salad bar of medals plus a small medal that is the shield of her familial crest.::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
FCO: Yeah, aside from promotion ceremonies ... ::careful not to bring up the last one::
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Enters the hall, glancing around.::
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
::Nods to the CO as she sees her, then resumes looking over the room, scanning discretely with her tricorder::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
::nods toward the CTO who recently entered::
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
::Nods to the OPS::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
FCO: You know Lieutenant Murphy has always scared me a bit you know, but when it comes to safety I have never felt in better hands.
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::acknowledges the CTO's nod with one of her own.::
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
::smiles at Sam:: OPS: She takes her job very seriously which is a credit to her.
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Walks over to greet the Olais.::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
::notes how both delegations have gone to different sides of the room:: FCO: I wonder what each is saying to their comrades, do you think the first session went well?
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
FCO: A credit indeed, speaking of Murphy that is.
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
::Moves over to the CO after finishing the scans:: CO: All clear Boss, no poison or kaboomite to be found.
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Nods an acknowledgment at the CTO:: Olais Rep: How are you Ambassador?
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
OPS: I'm not sure but from what I know of these things I doubt things will be resolved any time soon. There could be many more sessions to come.
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
::looks over at Teyla:: FCO: You know if it's not to bold in saying, you look good in your Whites Lieutenant. ::smiles::
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
::Moves off a bit and contacts the OPS center to make sure Tactical is running continuous scans of the sector, then contacts the Security office to make sure the SRU is on stand-by and they are monitoring events in the banquet::
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
OPS: As do you Mr. Chambers. ::she motions to the buffet tables:: shall we?
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
FCO: Sure ::moves with the FCO to the food::
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Continues to make small talk with the Oalis Ambassador, glad there is only one welcome banquet.::
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
::Having finished all the required duties she makes for the banquet table and gets herself a big glass of sweet iced tea, then moves over to the FCO and OPS, speaking quietly:: FCO/OPS: Are we havin' fun yet?
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
::notes how the Klingon dishes clash horribly with the Olias and human food::
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Starts making the rounds, going around the room, nodding to her crew and making polite diplospeak talk with the representatives.::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
CTO: Oh yeah, though I suspect I will stay away from the food that is still alive ::looking down at a rather lively plate of goch::
Host Nick says:
<Olais Rep> CO: Very well Captain, I am most gracious to you for allowing us to disrupt your station again.
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
OPS: Why is that? ::smirks and snags up a gagh worm and slurps it down like a thick piece of spaghetti, grinning at the OPS afterwards::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
CTO: Security is tight ...
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
CTO: well ::looks from one group of delegates to the other:: I don't think we will all be doing the conga.
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
Oalis Rep: Is it our pleasure to show the forces of discord that they don't hold sway. And our honor to once again host this worthy event.
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
::tries his luck at once of the Olias dishes wonder what it was but thinking at least it was not moving::
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
FCO: Likely not... Klingons don't have much of a sense of rhythm fer dance music. ::winks::
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
CTO: No though some dance rhythms are good for combat training.
Host Nick says:
<Olais Rep> CO: Eloquently put Captain
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
FCO: Aye, but ceremonial dances and such don't have very catchy tunes...
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Paige nods in polite acknowledgment of the compliment.::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
::can sense just how much the CTO enjoyed that and just responds with a smile and:: CTO: Just because I don't want to eat it does not mean I think its bad food. On the contrary I was promised it was the best I could find in the region.
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
CTO/FCO: Rarely to I get to order real food when I talked to my suppliers.
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
OPS: I wouldn't expect anythin' less from ye, Mr. Chambers, especially on such an important occasion. ::grins::
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
Olais: I am hopeful we'll be able to finalize the treaty this time, today while difficult seemed to progress well...::really wishes there was someone of a higher rank who could take point on Ambassador Patrol.::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
CTO: So the Klingon's seem well behaved today, you responsible for that or are they acting civil on their own accord?
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::She likes meeting new people but the formality in these situations was always a bit annoying to deal with.::
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
::nibbles on a blue leafy dish that was part of the Olais cuisine::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
FCO: Not to bad is it, I wonder what they call it. I'd ask but I don't want to intrude.
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
OPS: I expect it'd be a bit of both. I greeted them when they came aboard, so they knew they'd be well looked-after. Since nothing happened but a bit of arguin', things are relatively quiet. ::shrugs::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
CTO: I dare you to wrap one of the Olias Leafs with one of the Klingon Worms and swallow it.
Host Nick says:
<Olais Rep> CO: I hope so as well, as much as I don't want to say it to the Klingons, we need this treaty to be a success
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
::Takes a sample of the Olias leaf and eats it to see what it's like::
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Continues to talk to the Ambassador while moving to the banquet table getting herself a plate. And being the Captain gets something from the human, oalis and klingon food groups. Trying to get something that isn't moving too much from the Klingons.::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
::folds his arms:: CTO: Well?
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
Oalis Rep: I won't tell them...
Host Nick says:
<Regnum> ::enters the reception hall in his dress uniform and looks around for the Captain:: CO: Permission to join the sware Captain?
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
::Wraps one of the gagh in a leaf and stuffs the whole thing in her mouth and chews it up, then swallows the whole mess with a sip of ice tea::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
FCO/CTO: Who is that? ::does not point but motions toward Regnum whom he personally does not know::
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
OPS: The Admiral in charge of the shipyards and sector construction and resource allocation.
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::puts the plate down on a small side table:: Oalis Rep: Excuse me Ambassador. Regnum: Of course Sir.
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Goes over to the resident flag officer offer her hand.::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
::cheers for the CTO though bit louder then he intended:: CTO: Nice!! ... How was it?
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
OPS: Not bad... a little crunchy. ::smirks::
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Hides a grin at the antics of the CTO and OPS.::
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
Regnum: I thought you'd be busy with the array Sir.
Host Nick says:
<Regnum> CO: Always busy, but how could I pass up a banquet
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
::Is fine sticking to the vegetation dishes::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
CTO: Ah I knew there was an Admiral's quarters and special sector office on the books but I have never honestly run into him.
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
OPS: He pretty much keeps to himself, except when he needs something. Seems to know his job well enough.
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
Regnum: Well we have the best from Earth, Oalis and Klingon. The Klingon food is especially lively.
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Walks with the Commodore back to the main table::Regnum: If you'd like Sir I could introduce you to the delegates?
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
~~~ FCO: I see you are not touching the Klingon food either ~~~
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
::Gets herself a heart of Targ and a Pitheas claw and digs in::
Host Nick says:
<Regnum> CO: It usually is, I think I'll stick with the Olais and Human food
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
OPS: I have talked with him a few times when I was in his position.
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Smiles at the Commodores comment.::
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
~~~OPS: My race does not eat living or once living creatures.~~~
Host Nick says:
<Regnum> CO: And sure, I'd love to meet the ambassadors
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
Regnum: Aye Sir. ::Makes the needed introductions.::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
~~~FCO: Interesting I can't say the same but we should probably move away from the CTO now, because if I have no desire to watch her eat I think it's a Targ heart I am sure you don't either ~~~
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
~~~OPS: I'd prefer not~~~ :: moves away from the tables::
Host Nick says:
<Regnum> ::walks around with the Captain::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
CTO: The very best indeed .. enjoy ::eyes the plate and begins to move off and decides to join the Captain and Admiral::
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
OPS: Thanks fer yer efforts Leftenant... I rarely eat the Klingon stuff unless I can get it fresh.
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Ends the rounds with a stop at the banquet table.::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
::behind the captain and delegation now realizing they are now back at the table they just left:: ~~~ FCO: Darn ~~~
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
::Finds a set with a nice view of the room and sits sipping her Betazed Tonic::
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
::Moves over to speak and eat with the Klingons and share tales and such::
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::turns to see the ops chief:: OPS: How are you? Having fun?
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
~~~OPS: Can't get away can you.~~~
Host Nick says:
<Regnum> ::decides to greet the crew and walks over to the CTO:: CTO: Well done on the security preparations Lieutenant, things seem to be going much smoother then last time, I expect you've scowered this place with a microscanner at least a dozen times.
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
CO/Regnum/Olias: Captain, sir, Ambassadors I hope the preparations have been satisfactory?
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
OPS: Of course Ops, excellent job as always. ::Smiling.::
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
Regnum: Thankee Sir, and I have. Everything is quiet and shipshape. Seems the only troubles will be across the conference table this time. ::grins::
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
~~~ FCO: Seems not to easily but it's all good. ~~~
OPS_Ltjg_Chambers says:
CO: My duty, and my pleasure, Captain.
Host Nick says:
<Regnum> CTO: Here's hoping ::raises a glass and turns to greet the FCO:: FCO: Hello Lieutenant, I haven't seen you since you dropped the scrubs.
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
Regnum: Aye Sir. ::toasts and drinks::
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Glad to have a moment to herself gets some iced tea.::
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
Regnum: No it seems we have not crossed paths. I did enjoy our talks.
Host Nick says:
<Regnum> FCO: How are you enjoying the pilot's chair?
Host CO_Cpt_Harker says:
::Heads for the window to look out of the window.::
CTO_Lt_Murphy says:
::Digs into her Klingon chow and has a glass of blood wine to go with it::
FCO_LtJg_Maui says:
Regnum: I have alway enjoyed flying.
Host Nick says:
<Regnum> FCO: Very good then, I'm glad you like it, though I missed you last week when a piece of conduit hit me in the head, the new doc has a horrible bedside manner
