CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
<Ops> ::Punches it up::

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::arrives in sickbay::  CMO:  What happened?

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: Capt....  err..  you're not a Captain..  Who is in charge over there?

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
@::lets out a sigh as a proximity alert goes off... slowly rises from her seat with a good stretch and looks out the forward window , squinting at three greenish ships of large size::

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
COMM Slavik: Me... Lieutenant-Commander Tyfair at your service.

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::she looks up, completely composed now:: Wolfe: Transporter feedback. She's nearly dead, sir.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
COMM Slavik: Who are you?

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
CMO:  Any other injuries?

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
@::pulls up her PADD with her transfer orders::  Self:  Claymore... ::looks back out the window and tries looking for "Claymore" on the side of Warbird::

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: I guess Starfleet lets just about anyone command their vessels these days..  Why did your security officer attack our ambassadorial guard?

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
COMM Slavik: Probably because a bunch of your guards decided to play shoot the diplomats in the meeting room.

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
Wolfe: Amazingly enough, no. The feedback was caused by a disruptor blast intersecting with the transporter beam at the moment of transport. She'll be all right, but only thanks to being stuck in stasis right away.

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: Were that really the case, I would likely agree with you..  however, security logs indicate your officer physically attacked the ranking Romulan officer on the planet with no provocation!

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
@::takes a glance at her aft sensor readings and spots an Akira-class starship just behind her.  Starts fiddling with the controls and attempts to hail the ship::

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::this is said to the commander as an aside::

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
ACTION: INCOMING HAIL FROM A SHUTTLE

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
COMM Slavik: Firing a disruptor at her doesn't count as provocation?  

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
<OPS> *Shuttle* We read you shuttle.

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: Indeed it would, but as the case turns out, the disrupter fire occurred much after the initial physical assault by your security officer.

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
@::seems curiously surprised when somebody pops on the screen::  COMM Claymore:  Greetings Claymore... Lieutenant Stephanie Tomiaz, requesting permission to dock.  I've received orders indicating that this is my next assignment.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::frowns and looks over at the Ambassador::  Ambassador, due to Lt Pierces actions on the surface - I am confining you to quarters.  ::raises his hand as the Ambassador prepares an indignant response::  No shouts, threats, screams, nor callous comments will change my position on this matter.  You can either do this willingly...

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
Amb:  or I will have Security escort you there.  Its your choice, but do not push me on this.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
COMM Slavik: Riiiiight, I'm sure.  So a group of your guards didn't waltz into the meeting room and open fire like our scans show?  Wanna swap sensor logs and see which one's a forgery?  I bet you lose.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
*CEO*  Commander, what is your status.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
*Wolfe* I'm on the phone, please hold.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::frowns and mutters::  figures  ::watches the Ambassador storm out of sickbay::

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
@::looks down, noticing that her outer uniform jacket isn't exactly on and looks around for a moment, finding the article of clothing draped over the co-pilots chair... gives the guy on screen a quick smile as she hurriedly slips the jacket on and gives her hair a quick push over her shoulders::

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: Gladly..  ::motions ops to transmit logs::  However, assuming you have the ability to read these, you will find our guards did enter the room, per regulations regarding this type of meeting, but all weapons remained holstered until after YOUR officer physically assaulted mine.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
<OPS> *Tomiaz* Main Shuttle Bay is ready for you.

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: But I should know better than to waste my time with subordinate personnel...  where is your superior officer?

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: Perhaps he shall have more respect for allied races...

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
:;she keeps an eye on Pierce:: Wolfe: Now we wait until he takes someone else to link with.

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
@COMM: Claymore:  Right, thank you Claymore... Tomiaz out.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::looks up at the bridge, then at the CMO::  AlGhul:  Fantastic - I'll make sure security keeps him under the proverbial lock and key.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
COMM Slavik: Well here's ours ... ::Sends sensor data::  Now if you are done insulting me you pointy-eared nut, you are dealing with me right now Sub-Commander.  So get over it.

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
@::adjusts the attitude of her shuttle somewhat, then rolls eyes as she sees the automatic tractor beams lock on and guide the shuttle in::

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
CMO:  And I get the sneaking suspicion that leaving Tyfair in charge of the bridge is about as smart as tossing a tribble into a packed klingon blood sport stadium.  I'll be on the bridge, keep me posted.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
::Reads over the sensor data the Romulans sent with attention to detail::

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::turns and heads, hurriedly, out of the sickbay, back up to the bridge::

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@::raises eyebrow::  COMM: Claymore: Interesting reaction..  ::motions to his weapons officer to arm weapons::  Now, for my response, you have exactly 30 of your seconds to get me your commanding officer, or you can expect a response to your insult.

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::she chuckles and turns back to Pierce, keeping an eye on the internal sensors in Jelkar's room::

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
COMM Slavik: Wow you are a blowhard aren't you... you really want to be the officer that sends your people to War... I am in charge right now, my commanding officers are indisposed.

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: 20....  19...  18.... 17....

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
COMM Slavik:  Do not play hardball with me mister.

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
::orders his weapons officer to fire a warning shot across the bow::

Ambassador_Jelkar says:

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
CEO:  Enough!

::barks:: CEO:  Commander Tyfair!  As you were.

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
ACTION: ROMULAN DISRUPTERS LANCE OUT ACROSS THE CLAYMORE BOW, MAKING A NICE DISPLAY OF FIREWORKS BUT DOING NO DAMAGE.

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: That, Lieutenant Commander Tyfair, was the final warning you shall get from me.  Next time, my vessels will NOT miss...  Your time is also now up...

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
Wolfe: I am as I was... You can have the Bridge and deal with that over pumped pointy eared blowhard over there threatening to blow us out of the sky.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
::Walks over to his station and sits::

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::slowly walks across the back of the bridge, watching the two figures in the center exchange lines with each other, and the pointed-eared fellow on the screen::

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::glances up to make certain there's still security present, and wonders about the security detail following the Ambassador::

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::gives the CEO a baleful look and turns his attention to the Romulans::  Sub Commander - I am Commander Maxmillian Wolfe, Executive Officer of the Claymore.  My apologies that the Captain is not available - as the recent events on the surface indicate, something is amiss somewhere, and he leading the charge to get to the bottom of it

Ambassador_Jelkar says:
::makes the crucial decision:: *Liva* Counselor Liva, I must see you in my quarters.

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: Indeed Commander..  I trust you have more than the 1 brain cell your Lieutenant Commander seems to possess?

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
<Johnson> ::Stays on guard right outside the Ambassador's quarters in his usual boring manner::

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
COM:  Sub Commander:  I can assure you that we, aboard the Claymore are as interested as to what happen as you and the representatives of our allies.  I apologize for not being here to help maintain a certain level......of civility.

Ambassador_Jelkar says:
<Liva> *Jelkar* Yes, Ambassador, I will be there momentarily.

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::walks up behind the seat to the Captain's left, holding the back of the chair as she observes events unfolding and trying to get a grasp on the situation::

FCO_Ens_Deegan says:
::Finally returns to the bridge after being kept in the sickbay, wondering about the status of the shuttle::

Ambassador_Jelkar says:
<Liva> ::leaves her quarters and walks to the Ambassador's quarters::

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
<Johnson> ::Wishes Lt. Pierce was there so he wouldn't have to guard the creepy Ambassador by himself::

Ambassador_Jelkar says:
::gathers the funeral stones, shaking now from the effect of the negative energy washing over him::

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@::at least someone on the ship has brains apparently::  COMM: Claymore: Indeed..  My complaint is now two-fold..  First, your Lieutenant Commander Tyfair is exceedingly rude, likely high-strung, and extraordinarily insulting..  Second, I want to know what you intend to do about the security officer that assaulted my own

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
COM:  Sub Commander:  I see you sent your sensor logs, and I thank you.  It will make for a clearer picture as to what happened.  I assure you that the persons responsible have been detained.  Unfortunately, for the safety for all involved, the talks will have to be postponed until the investigation completes.

FCO_Ens_Deegan says:
::Takes his position at the conn.::

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::absent-mindedly shoots a finger casually in the CEO's direction, then the XO::  Self:  Tyfair... Wolfe...  ::looks around for other officers giving hints of their names and allows extended index finger to hang limply as she spins around::

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
::Feels like getting up and yelling at the pointy eared blowhard::

Ambassador_Jelkar says:
<Liva> ::nods to the security guards, then enters the Ambassador's quarters::

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
<Johnson> ::Watches Liva enter then follows her in::

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
<Johnson> Liva: Errm, excuse me Counselor, you're not supposed to be here.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
::Stalks over to a Jeffries Tube access in the Wall, opens it and leaves the Bridge before he blows up and gives that pointy eared Romulan a piece of his mind::

Ambassador_Jelkar says:
::pulls himself up to his full height, and glares at the guard:: Johnson: I have asked her to attend me while I begin the mourning process. You will not interfere.

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: Indeed they shall be postponed, perhaps for a great time..  But you have failed to tell me what you intend to do to your officer...  the one that without provocation assaulted one of my senior officers...

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
@  COMM:  Slavik:  She is currently being detained and relieved of duty until the investigation is complete

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
::Drops down in Sickbay and sees Pierce in a glowing bubble thing::

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
<Johnson> Ambassador: With all due respect creepy... err Ambassador.  I was under the impression that you have been confined here.

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::mutters to herself as she settles into the seat::  Self:  Well, perhaps they want to come over for dinner... smooth out diplomatic relationships, talk about the family, yadda, yadda, yadda...

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
::Goes over and peers at Pierce's sleeping face::  Self: So this is what the Romulan's did to you huh?

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: That's all well and good I suppose Commander...  but exactly what investigation is there to complete?

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::walks up behind Tyfair:: Tyfair: Yes, it is.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
@ COMM: Slavik:  So it should be brief.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
::Jumps a meter and clutches his chest::  AlGhul: DON'T DO THAT GEEZ!!!!

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
Tyfair: Fortunately it's all repairable. ::she grins at his startle::

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: In my eyes Commander, it's already done, and I have reported such to my superiors back on Romulus...  When can I expect a final response from you?

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::crosses legs and rests her hands on top of them, allowing her eyes to move about the room and familiarize themselves with the new surroundings::

Ambassador_Jelkar says:
::looks derisively at Johnson:: Johnson: Your impressions are of little concern to me. Now get out.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
AlGhul: So what's wrong with her besides a disruptor blast?

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
@  COMM:  Slavik:  As soon as I can tear myself away from the comm, Sub Commander.

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
Tyfair: That isn't even an issue. Feedback disrupted her neural activity, and I stuck her in a stasis field right away.

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
ACTION: THE CHANNEL CUTS IMMEDIATELY TO BE REPLACED BY THE VIEW OF 3 ROMULAN VESSELS ARMED AND READY..  SEEMINGLY STARING AT THE CLAYMORE.

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
<Johnson> Ambassador: Okay.  ::Starts to leave, taking Liva with him::  But you're not allowed to have visitors.  This room is no longer a luxury suite, more of a cell.

Ambassador_Jelkar says:
<Liva> ::rips her arm out of his grasp:: Johnson: DO not touch me again, you slovenly peon.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::lets out a deep breath, rubbing his eyes and looks over at Fuller::  Fuller:  Stand down from Red Alert.   ::looks over at the new officer::  Tomiaz:  Who are you?

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
<Fuller>  Yes, Sir.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
AlGhul: So she will get better and live to shoot varmints again?

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::raises one hand to point at the screen::  XO:  Mmm... Warbirds.  You guys run into a lot of those over here?  ::rises from the seat and extends hand::  XO:  Lt. Stephanie Tomiaz... I've just been assigned here, Commander.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::shakes her hand::  Well, Lt, orders?  ::looks for the padd, next::

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::resists the urge to pat Tyfair on the head:: Tyfair: Yes, you could say that. ::she pauses:: What are you doing in here, anyway?

Ambassador_Jelkar says:
::the ambassador silently seethes, trying to pull his emotions under control::

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
<Johnson> ::Sighs, now he has to tattle:: *CMO*: Johnson to Dr. AlGhul, the Ambassador is being very uncooperative again.  Is he allowed to have visitors?

FCO_Ens_Deegan says:
XO: Sir, what about the shuttle?

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
AlGhul: Oh.. Over Stuff Pointy-Eared Romulan Sub Commander got on my nerves.

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::brings other hand up with a PADD, anticipating his comment already::  XO:  Strategic Operations Officer... no word yet on how permanent the job is, sir.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
FCO: As soon as you can, remote it back up to the shuttlebay.

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::she tsks over this, then answers the comm:: *Johnson* Who is wishing to see the Ambassador?"

FCO_Ens_Deegan says:
XO: Aye, sir. ::Sends remote signal for the shuttle to return to the ship::

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::nods::  CIV:  You got a bridge rating?

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::clasps hands together behind her back as the XO continues on::  XO:  I do indeed, Commander.

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
<Johnson> *CMO*: His aide.  ::Sees the duo giving him mean looks as he turns around::  I'm unsure of her name.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
FCO:  Keep that escape course plotted.

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::nods head in the general direction of the viewscreen::  XO:  I'm willing to make myself useful wherever possible...

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
:;arches an eyebrow:: *Johnson* If it's Liva, I'd let her stick around. Resume your post outside, Johnson.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::keeping the padd::  CIV:  You have the bridge, Lt.  If war is on the horizon, let me know first.   I'll be with our VIP...

Ambassador_Jelkar says:
<Liva> ::looks rather imperious at this, knowing that the bad ship's doctor has finally been reined in:: Johnson: Leave us. ::then moves over to the ailing ambassador::

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
<Johnson> *CMO*: If you say so ma'am.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
AlGhul: What's that all about?

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::closes the comm:: Tyfair: It's about just desserts, Caleb.

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::stutters for a moment as the bridge is tossed into her lap::  XO:  Ay-aye, Commander.  Anything I should know about for the time being?

Ambassador_Jelkar says:
::the ambassador brings the stones to a nearby couch:: Liva: Would you join me in the funeral meditations?

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
AlGhul: Desserts huh?  ::Doesn't believe her for a second, digs into his pockets of his work jacket::  Want some Jelly-beans?

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
<Johnson> ::Leaves and mutters,:: Ambassador/Liva: Sorry about that...

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::looks them over, and picks out the red ones:: Tyfair: Thanks.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::heads for lifts::  CIV:  I wish I had time to elaborate, but if I remember your ratings at the Academy, Ms. Tomiaz, you are outstanding at thinking on your feet.

FCO_Ens_Deegan says:
XO: Sir, the shuttle has docked.

Ambassador_Jelkar says:
::they begin the funeral meditation::

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::steps onto the lift::

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:

::smiles somewhat sinisterly:: AlGhul: Don't you know the adage about Klingon promotions?

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::steps onto the lift, frowning....::

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::her eyes narrow:: Liva: So you're not one for mourning.....

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
::Groans:: Self: It feels like I have the biggest hangover in the universe...

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::looks at the screen::  COMM: Slavik:  Yes, but I would imagine that the Commander is being quite thorough in his findings, what with the importance of our alliance with the Star Empire and all.  ::smiles::

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::goes to Pierce's side and helps to steady her::

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: You must think we highly ignorant or incompetent Lieutenant...

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::charges out of the lift - holding the padd that Tomiaz gave him and holds it up::  COMM:  Ah, Sub Commander Slavik - I just received the findings of the investigation.  ::holds up the padd as proof::

Liva says:
Talia: That's right. Besides....he wasn't worthy of the job. But I am. ::her voice is cold as ice, and Talia actually gets a chill down her spine::

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
Liva: Well aren't you a peach?

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
COMM: Slavik:  Not at all, Sub Commander...  Commander Wolfe is, as we speak, on his way to the- ::looks at something off screen, then sees the XO walk in::

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
CMO: Oww, my head.  What happened?

Liva says:
::spares a glance at Jelkar, then heads for the door:: Talia: Prepare the body for return to my people. I'm sure someone will care.

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: Indeed Commander...  and the findings would be?

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
Tomiaz:  Thank you Lt ::leans forward and whispers::  take Tactical

Liva says:
::she leaves and returns to her quarters::

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::nods head as she makes her way to an aft station::

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::sighs:: Pierce: Are you all right?

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
Pierce: Hey, its sleeping beauty.  ::Chuckles as he moves to Pierces bedside::

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
:;she runs a few scans to make certain:: Pierce: According to this, you should be fit for duty by tomorrow.

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
CMO: I'm all here... I'm okay, I guess.  Did something bad happen between us?  I have a sudden urge to poke you in the eye.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
COMM: Slavik:  It appears Ambassador Jelkar was using the officer that launched the attack as an unwitting and unknowing emotional sponge - and the strain of the talks he passed onto her was too much for her to bear.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::glances at the PADD as if he were reading from it::

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::she smiles this time:: Pierce: Just blame it on being under the influence. And please, don't poke me in the eye.

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::conducts a passive scan on EM activity, attempting to follow the comm frequency to the ship broadcasting Slavik and reminds herself where the bridge of the Warbird is::

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
CEO: Are you my get well soon card?  ::Attempts a smirk::

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: Indeed..  I'm sure you wouldn't mind sharing the contents of that padd of yours that allegedly contains this information?

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
Pierce: Yes, here have a Jelly Bean... ::Holds out hand full of jelly beans::

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
COMM: Slavik:  Of course, I will have my notes and the official report published, logged, and distributed

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: Ahh yes, but official reports are soo bland..  I much prefer the un-edited ones..

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
::Takes the jelly beans and begins to eat all but the black ones:: CEO: Thanks, they make my day.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
COMM:  Slavik:  As I said, I'll include the pertinent officer's notes.

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::she closes up her tricorder::

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
Pierce: That's my job... I'll tell you all about how I stood up for you to a Romulan dork.  

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
Pierce/Tyfair: My work here is done.

Host SubCommander_Slavik says:
@COMM: Claymore: Very well Commander, for now, I shall go along with this story as you have proven to have some resemblance of a brain inside that head of yours.  Slavik out.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
AlGhul: Are you gonna disappear now?

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
::she goes into her office, shrugs off her jacket, and gives instructions to the head nurse:: Tyfair: I was thinking about it....why do you ask?

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
CMO: Thanks Doc.  Consider your eyes safe.

FCO_Ens_Deegan says:
::Wonders why Romulans act like such jerks ... he had heard such good things about them - "Maybe it's just that one guy ..."::

Host SM_TomG says:
ACTION: THE CHANNEL CLEARS ONCE AGAIN.

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::waits for a moment, then walks back towards the center of the bridge and extends hand, wanting the PADD back::  XO:  Never knew my personnel transfer contained so much information...  ::smiles::

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::as the commlink closes, lets out a deep sigh, before turning to Deegan::  Ensign:  Get in touch with Starfleet Command and appraise them of the situation.

FCO_Ens_Deegan says:
XO: Aye, sir.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
::Looks at her for a second and notices a tray of weird peppers on the desk::  AlGhul: Nawh, you'll stick around.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
Pierce: Feel better, I have stuff to take care of.

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
::relinquishes the padd::  Tomiaz:  Hey, you work with what you have. Welcome aboard the Claymore.  Talk to Ensign Droomaine with Starship Operations to get your quarters assigned.

CEO_LtCmdr_Tyfair says:
::Ducks down into the jeffries tube beneath sickbay::

TO_LtJG_Pierce says:
CEO: Thanks.  ::Pops a jellybean in her mouth and chews thoughtfully::

CMO_Cmdr_AlGhul says:
Tyfair: Want to bet? ::picks up the pepper tray and takes it with her as she heads back to her quarters for the first time in what feels like 48 hours::

Host XO_Cmdr_Wolfe says:
Tomiaz:  Unless Captain Randolph says otherwise, that chair is yours.

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::thumbs at the PADD's screen, then turns it back around towards the XO::  XO:  Seeing that this might turn out to be a short-term assignment, I took the liberty of finding an empty room...  There's a spacious one sitting on Deck 2, I believe.

FCO_Ens_Deegan says:
::Sends a message to Starfleet Command, informing them of the situation::

CIV_Lt_Tomiaz says:
::takes seat::  XO:  I'm looking forward to the assignment... ::settles back::

Host SM_TomG says:
