Host SM_James says:
Summary: Claymore is 3 days out from the Arealyn system, and still putting together the pieces – of the mission, of their past, of themselves and each other. With all things diplomacy, the rule is 90/10. Ninety percent boredom to prepare for ten percent major catastrophe. The question: Which one are we?

Star Trek: A Call to Duty is proud to present the USS Claymore in: "The Long Night"

Episode 5: "Pieces" (12107.24)

::on the bridge at science, working with engineering on calibrating the lateral sensor arrays in the event energy anomaly happens to show again::
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Considering having all power turned off to her lab...after she removes her tea and lemon from stasis and wonders what the admiral would do then.::
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Sitting in the otherwise vacant command area on the bridge, continuing to read through back editions of newsfeeds from Arealyn V::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::in sickbay::
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
:: Two hours into his helm watch shift, as the strapping young lad he was, he was focused on the upcoming critical tasks ::
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Walks out of the locker room after having switched out her lab coat after spilling tea on her last one.::
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Sees the CEO as she enters the main body of sickbay.:: CEO: Has someone helped you?
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
::Takes an orange juice to her desk and looks at the PADD::
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
::steps off a turbolift onto the bridge, pauses, then takes an idle scan around the command deck – he really needs to make excuses to be up here more often::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::taps on the door frame of the CMO's office:: CMO: Excuse me, Doctor...
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Shrugs and looks over the duty roster on her PADD::
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
::waves the CEO in:: CEO: It's open, come on in.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Walks over to one of the desks in main sickbay and sits down at it scrolling through next week's shift rotation schedule.::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::enters the CMO's office:: CMO: I wanted to stop by ... haven't been feeling so well. ::holds his stomach::
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
Info: A news feed update comes into Claymore from Arealyn V, indicating the assembly has been called to an emergency meeting. Reporters are speculating this may have something to do with "the Federation agreement".

Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Holds his breath a moment, then sighs it out, as he taps the notification then reads through the late-breaking bulletin::
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
::gets up from her desk quickly:: CEO: Oh my, when did this start?
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
::makes his way down toward the command area, looks briefly over at the viewscreen, then lowers himself into the seat officially reserved for him as though he did, in fact, belong there the entire time::
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Rubs his right temple with his right hand, though he is unaware that he is doing so::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::thinks:: CMO: About eighteen hours ago ... not sure if it's something I ate. Or maybe a bug going around.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
CMO: Normally, I'm such a strapping young lad that these things don't bother me....
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
::Spins slightly:: CSO: Shiva got a second?
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::After making a few minor adjustments, since it is currently quiet in sickbay, she decides to pull out some old research, but instead of using her 'office' she decides to use Medlab 2.  It's...quieter in there because there is no stasis chamber.::
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
CEO: Well, let's get you checked out. ::grabs a nearby tricorder and takes a scan::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::nods with sad puppy dog eyes::
CSO_LtJG_Sheva says:
::hesitates for a moment, lost in thought, then her antennae notice the FCO talking to her before her brain does, and she looks up as if she had seen a ghost:: FCO: Hm? Yes? Sure, what's on your mind?
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Makes her way to Medlab 2 and the lights turn on as she enters...she walks over to the terminal and signs on.::
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Looks up as he detects motion::  CNS:  ...Ah, Counselor.  How are you?
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Pulls up some research from before she arrived on the Claymore to refamiliarize herself with the particulars of it.::
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::As she does, she remembers her old research assistant who assisted her during this particular experiment....he was a strapping young lad and very resourceful.::
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
::is about to produce a PADD from a pocket of his uniform so as to not distract Damrok but decides otherwise as the captain distracts himself instead:: CO: Can't really complain, Capt'n. Caseload's a little lighter than my last assignment, so that's a plus. ::lets the corner of his mouth turn up just a bit::
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
CNS:  Several thousand fewer prospective patients, I imagine.  ::Smiles kindly::
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Scrolls through the abstract that she had already begun working on...on the second terminal in the lab, she pulls up the actual footage of the experiment that she had run::

FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
:: splits the screen on his console and brings up the subroutine list for medbay :: CSO: After our "incidents", I got a little paranoid and did some digging, looking for what could be a potential compromise of the computer system.  There are strange indicators but haven't necessarily paired the subroutines to listening subspace sockets.  An anomaly from distance shouldn’t be interfering 
with actuators like that aside from potentially interrupting fuzzy logic loops on sensors not in the way of complete course changes, et cetera and so on.
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO:  I think Claymore may be compromised.
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
::Looks over the tricorder results, nodding:: CEO: Yeah, I see that. Let's get you to a biobed so I can verify the results, but then we should be able to give you a quick shot to fix this right up. Come with me?
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::She turns the second terminal to face the first one so that she can watch the video feed as she scrolls through her draft of the abstract.::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::nods and follows the CMO to a biobed, hops up on it::
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
::steps out into the main sickbay and firs up the sickbay::
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
::nods:: CO: There's that, yes. There may also be the fact this crew's a little more...disciplined than station population. ::shakes his head slightly:: I promise, the head counsellor need not necessarily handle *every* case.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Follows along in the abstract as the experiment plays.::
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
::Looks over the biobed readout and nods again:: CEO: Yes, looks like just a little bug.  Give me just a minute.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
CMO: I sure hope it wasn't the Torothan blood soup I had on Deep Space 3 ... I thought it tasted a little off.
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO: Wanted to dig into it a bit with yourself and talk with Siddig before bringing in Chief Priax or popping a flare to the captain, although I think I do have enough to alert the captain.
CSO_LtJG_Sheva says:
FCO: That's...quite a claim. ::is impressed by his flourish of advanced quantum whiz-bang techno terms:: FCO: I can look into this evidence you've gathered. Maybe you should run this by engineering and ops just to be sure.
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
::giggles a little:: CEO: I think that might be right.
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Allows a small chuckle::  CNS:  An interesting assessment.
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
CNS:  Did you get my scheduling request?
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
CO: I did, and I've made an opening. When you're no longer needed on the bridge, Sir.
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
::dials up a nearby hypospray and gives Siddig a quick shot:: CEO: That should help in the long run.  As for the short run, if you can, lie down for about an hour. If not, I can give you something, but it can give you a headache. Your call.

Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Takes a look around::  CNS:  The degree to which I am ever really needed on the bridge at times like this is.... ::Glances to his PADD::  ...well, I've been reading the news for the last two hours.  But Commander Davis is presently occupied doing as much digging on our destination as possible, so it makes sense for me to be on watch more often than not.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::tilts his neck so Stevens can give him the injection, winces as the hypospray hisses out the medication:: CMO: I think I better take the shot and risk the headache. The way the ship has been acting up the last few days, the captain might need me for something. I don't want to be laid out in my quarters when he needs me.
CIV_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Steps out into the bridge::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::thinks his stomach feels a little less queasy already::
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
CO: Capt'n, we're at green status and the reports I have access to don't indicate an immediate threat. If we aside to your ready room, your crew can always call if that changes.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Realizes that something from the abstract doesn't match something from the video.  Pauses the video and replays that particular stretch.::
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
::Nods to Siddig and dials the hypospray to a different setting:: CEO: I completely understand. If the headache is still around after your shift, come back and see me. Yeah?
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO: So you can see these spawned subroutines... but there doesn't appear to be a reason for it here.  The last incident I see which wasn't reported and was far past the anomaly left.  You can see the statis chamber triggering without an individual.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
CMO: You got a deal, Doc.
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
CNS:  My thoughts precisely, but it's helpful to have some outside confirmation that behaves like permission.  ::Dryly smiles and stands, taking a look around the bridge::
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::It doesn't...no wonder she couldn't get the research to work out the way she expected!  Sometimes you just need some time and distance.::
CIV_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Perhaps a little worse for wear from her time pouring over reports and PADDs, she nonetheless makes her way toward the center of the bridge and offers a smile:: CO: Captain.  ::still smiles:: CNS: Counselor.
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
::Smiles and sticks the hypospray into Siddig's arm next once more:: CEO: Alright, grab a drink of water on the way out but you should be feeling better by the time you get back down to your office. And with any luck, no headache will accompany it.
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Pauses when his pivot aims him toward sciences, where T'alin is standing::  CSO:  Lieutenant Hy'Qiin, you have the bridge.  ::Wonders whether there is something he should know about, but as is his wont, studiously ignores it until somebody tells him something or someone is on fire::
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Pauses as Raeyld approaches and greets them::  CIV:  Commander.  Do you have anything to report?
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::winces as he is injected again, then zips up his duty tunic once Stevens is done:: CMO: Thanks, Doc. ::gets down off the biobed::
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
ACTION: A priority news alert chimes its way into Claymore's awareness: "Assembly stands after governor withdraws, preventing a vote on terminating 'the Federation agreement outright':.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Makes a couple of notes at the end of the abstract and decides that's enough for the moment, so she considers heading to the lounge since it's quiet...for the moment.::
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
CEO: My pleasure.
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
::gets up as well, nodding once to the captain, then turning as he's addressed by someone else:: CIV: Ah. Doctor Raeyld, I presume.
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Flinches as he hears the quiet audio ping that lets him know about new things across the news feed, and despite the decorum of being essentially engaged in two different conversations, takes a quick peek at his PADD anyway::
CIV_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Shakes her head:: CO: Beyond a need for more coffee? Not at this time. We're still compiling data and analyzing for meaningful patterns.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Turns off the two terminals and heads out of Medlab 2 and toward the turbolift.::
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO: My concern is that if they're being initiated through encrypted subspace communications we will have to just correlate it, making it hard to point the finger at the exact contents, although... you and the CEO may be able to track things through known crypto suite JA40 signatures, or if we see an unknown crypto suite signature, that's also a major indicator, but hard to tell what's in it.  But it would be nice to at least try and pinpoint the source... or at least the relay source this far out and prove it's not from on the ship.  
CIV_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
CNS: Indeed. ::Smiles a little bit more::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::goes to get a drink from the replicator, orders Traggle nectar, and then heads for the door out of sickbay with cup in hand::
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Nods once as he lowers his PADD::  CIV:  Just got a bulletin – the governor has withdrawn to forestall an assembly vote on Arealyn's withdrawal from their agreement with the Federation.  ::Shakes his head::  We need to get a line to him, much sooner rather than later.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Walks past sickbay on her way to the turbolift and sees the CEO looking a big less green than before.:: CEO: The CMO get you all set up?
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::nods at Simmons:: MO: Indeed. ::drinks his nectar::
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: Glad to hear it.  You were looking a little...unsettled earlier.
CSO_LtJG_Sheva says:
FCO: So you think some kind of a subspace transmission has enabled remote access into compromising our systems? But if that's the case, then how? Lieutenant Fong would have spotted an infiltration of that magnitude by now.

OPS_LtJG_Fong says:
::adjusts his earpiece at the operations station::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::nods:: MO: I think I got a bad batch of Torothan blood soup while on DS3. ::shakes head:: MO: I should have known ... you know, that old saying, 'never drink the blood of a Torothan you haven't met'.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: I make it a habit to never drink blood...saves me every time.
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO: Not if it was a kernel-hooked root kit and everything was reporting false readings.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::chuckles:: MO: Probably a good rule of thumb.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Arrives at the TL:: CEO: You heading down?  ::Steps aboard.::
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
::just stands nearby, watching the two interact as Damrok brings Raeyld up to speed::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::arrives at the TL:: MO: Umm ... sure. ::thinks he probably doesn't have to rush back to Engineering just yet::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::enters the TL with the MO::
CSO_LtJG_Sheva says:
FCO: Well, Sublieutenant, this is your find. Best report it to the top. My team and I will support and investigate your findings.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: Well, I'm not going to twist your arm if you don't want to. ::Offers a sincere and friendly smile:: TL: Deck five.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::eyes the turbolift warily – recalls what happened the last time he was in one of these things::
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: Everything okay?
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::looks at Simmons:: MO: Oh sure... ::looks at TL:: MO: You just never know with these things...
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
MO: Sometimes they are full of piss and vinegar!
CIV_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Processes a moment, then glances toward OPS:: CO: Would you like me to ask Fong to get something going stat?
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: That's the first time I've ever heard that said about a turbolift.
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO: but you think this looks legit like a problem.  Always like to get the A team B team analysis so I'm not getting confirmation bias.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
MO: Well, you know us engineers ... we tend to add personification to our starships and our technology.
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
CIV:  Yes.  If there's a way to get so much as a message to him, let alone real-time communication, you both have my permission to beg, borrow, trade...whatever you need within the bounds of reason and the law to get contact.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: Actually, I've not met many engineers. ::the turbolift stops:: I'm going to get off here.  Would you care to join me or you going to head down to engineering?
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::gets off the turbolift:: MO: Where you heading?
CIV_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Nods:: CO: Understood. We'll let you know the moment we have something.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: The lounge for some brunch.  As matter of fact, I was never in anything that flied prior to three weeks ago.
CSO_LtJG_Sheva says:
::sends a message to Lieutenant Sahriv to begin immediate investigation of the ship's computers to search thoroughly for evidence of systems being compromised as the FCO had described:: FCO: One thing they teach us in the Academy is to never fail to take a Romulan seriously. I have a feeling you're on to something. It's worth checking out.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::follows Simmons towards the lounge and looks at her incredulously:: MO: Never been in anything that flew ... how'd you get through the Academy without taking basic flight?
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
CIV:  Very good, thank you.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: I never actually went to the Academy, believe it or not.  I was...conscripted after a fashion.
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Levels his gaze, then looks around the bridge, noting that his first attempt seems to have either not gotten through or gone unacknowledged::
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
CSO:  Lieutenant.
CSO_LtJG_Sheva says:
CO: Yes, Captain?
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
CSO:  You have the bridge.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
MO: Really? Sounds like there's quite a story there.... ::enters the lounge::
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
CNS:  My apologies.  ::Starts off toward the ready room::
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO:  Sounds good.  I'm going to talk with Siddig and see if we can't get Chief Priax looking at this between the four of us if we get a true indicator we can hopefully contain and eradicate the problem and recover the systems.
CMO_Lt_Stevens says:
::finishes the cleaning routine on the biobed and walks back into her office::
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
ACTION: Moments later, two more news alerts immediately chime.
1: "Polls indicate favorability of an agreement with the Federation increases slightly as the Order indicates support"
2: "Opinion: Starfleet on ice. Is the Federation scared of the isolationists? Should you be?"
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: Let's just say that I taught at Starfleet Medical for the last seven years.  And my particular skillset was apparently required aboard the Claymore.
CSO_LtJG_Sheva says:
::feel a knot in her stomach just like the last time:: CO: Y-yessir. ::rises up and heads for the command chair again, astonished by how warm Damrok kept the comfy seat upon sitting down::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::returns his empty cup of traggle nectar, that he's been carrying with him, to the replicator and orders two new ones. Hands Simmons one:: MO: Must be nice to be in such high demand. What exactly is your particular skillset?
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
ACTION: Computer notation appended to news report 1, per Damrok's instruction: "The Order: Believed to be a faction central to the Arealyn faith. Specific importance not entirely established."
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Glances to his PADD, briskly reading the headlines and annotation, and as he passes through the ready room door, has to resist the urge to silence his notifications, knowing that Raeyld will likely be receiving the same information...if things become critical, he'll know about it::
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Takes the drink from the CEO:: CEO: Thanks.  I'm a researcher?  Our first mission was supposed to be dealing with what they thought was a medical plague. ::Smells the nectar the CEO handed her....never having seen it before.:: What is this exactly?
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
::steps into the ready room behind the captain, and pauses just far enough in to allow the door to close::
CIV_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Steps over toward operations, pausing beside Fong:: OPS: Captain Damrok needs to get some kind of communication going with Arealyn V stat. What can we try?
CSO_LtJG_Sheva says:
FCO: Very good. I've got Lieutenant Sahriv looking into your evidence right now. He's checking the main computer as we speak.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::clinks his glass against Simmons:: MO: Full of all nutrients and vitamins and all the things the body needs. It's a great substitute for coffee ... much of the same effects but, you know, tastes good too.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
MO: So your rank is honorary?
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Walks over to the armchair and sets his PADD on the coffee table::  CNS:  Can I get you anything?  ::Pours a glass of water from his carafe::
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO: Appreciate the support. If he needs assistance as long as Siddig is ok with it may also fall into CHC Praix's wheelhouse.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Smells it again before taking a tiny sip:: CEO: Well, I was commissioned when they sent me out.  I'm not sure how all the ins-and-outs of it work.  I just did what I was told to do...at least that time.  ::Takes another sip trying to decide exactly what it tastes like.::
OPS_LtJG_Fong says:
::blinks slightly then nods at something:: CIV: We could try standard subspace communication.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Slides into a chair in the lounge.  If they're going to talk, they might as well sit.  Gestures to the seat opposite her.::
CIV_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
OPS: Okay... let's do it.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
MO: I see. ::sees her gesture to the chair and takes a seat:: MO: How long have you been aboard Claymore then?
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
::moves further into the room, then, and moves to occupy the sofa, figuring Damrok would be taking the armchair:: CO: Oh, I'm fine, Capt'n. Been running on coffee since 0630.
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Smiles::  CNS:  Fair.  ::Takes a seat::
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: About two weeks or three days depending on whether you take time travel into account.  ::Feels like it sounds outlandish enough that he may just not believe the truth, so she's got plausible deniability::
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::wonders if he's suffering the effects of the medicine the CMO gave him:: MO: Time travel?
OPS_LtJG_Fong says:
::pulls up a calculation for where the planet should be and checks the logs for 'Arealyn V' to verify it against any restrictions::
CSO_LtJG_Sheva says:
::leans back in the chair and crosses her legs casually, arms on the rests, feeling as if she were seated upon a throne...somehow seems familiar to her, just like the last time:: FCO: Were it my call, I'd gladly let you go below decks and help out, but I don't think Captain would want his best pilot leaving the helm just yet. ::smiles at T'alin::
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
::takes his seat after Damrok, and folds his hands in his lap:: CO: So. What can I do for you?
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO: Got about an hour and half before M'irl relieves me and I'll still be on shift another 4 hours after that so.  There's plenty of time.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Shakes her head:: CEO: Something like that, yes.  Maybe I've been aboard three weeks.  It just all runs together when you're having ::sarcastically: so much fun.
OPS_LtJG_Fong says:
::nods and starts the subspace communication process:: CIV: Should be just a moment.
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO: Whatever it may be, there's enough piss and vinegar with dogged determination left in this one to find out the root cause.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::laughs:: MO: Yes ... wrestling with the fusion reactors has been particularly "fun" lately.
CIV_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Nods to Fong::
CSO_LtJG_Sheva says:
FCO: I'm just your humble friendly neighborhood astrophysicist. I'll leave the granular cybersecurity C.S.I. stuff to you guys.
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
ACTION: Fong is somewhat politely informed that governor Selakc is currently in an emergency meeting and will return Claymore's call at his earliest opportunity.
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO: Understood.  It's always confusing as it seems the Federation cross-classes engineering and science for computers, so I thought I'd just send it through both channels.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: So is that why the replicator in sickbay started spitting out empty plates?
OPS_LtJG_Fong says:
::frowns after a bit of run around:: CIV: I have a call in to their governor.  He will probably call back.
CIV_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
OPS: How about a governor's aid? Or director of dog-catching...
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
MO: I'm not totally clear about the cause-and-effect relationship there ... but it definitely might be why the replicator did that.

Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Simply::  CNS:  Mostly?  I could just use a talk.  My usual counselor is unavailable over subspace right now, and I'm finding slightly more complicated just to have a conversation now that....  ::Gestures to his pips::
OPS_LtJG_Fong says:
::contacts the person who let him know that the governor would call back::
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: I love your certainty.  ::chuckles::  Well, one way or another it stopped, and we got it cleaned up.  How do you find the people aboard the Claymore?  Friendly enough?
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
MO: Yes, I think so. Honestly, I haven't had a whole lot of time to meet anyone ... except for that time in the lounge on Deep Space 3. Since reporting aboard it's been pretty non-stop. I think that's why I fell ill yesterday – burning the candle at both ends.
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
CO: And that's where the advantage of your head counsellor having a lighter caseload can be helpful. For you, I will clear my schedule, Capt'n. Any time you need, and wherever you're most comfortable. ::pauses, then, and allows a very faint smile:: Which is why we're not sitting in my office.
CSO_LtJG_Sheva says:
FCO: Speaking of cross-training, I'd be really interested to learn a bit about starship helm control. I'm just a basic class-one license with a shuttle, sadly.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
CEO: Well hopefully, you'll get a chance to get to know everyone.  Most everyone...with a few exceptions seem to be really great people.  And hopefully once you've got your feet under you in your department, you'll have a little more time to yourself.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Sets the traggle nectar down finally realizing that it tasted like the green smoothie she tried to choke down several days ago.::
FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO: That's definitely something we can remedy.  We are also slated to get a new flight instructor and stands, um... standardization officer next time we put in at DS3.  But until then I can instruct you.
Host CNS_LtJG_Jervase says:
ACTION: Fong is redirected, then redirected again, until he ends up speaking with the secretary to the secondary administrative officer to the governor.
CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::nods:: MO: Yes. I'm slowly getting to know all of my staff. So far Ensign Secord seems to be really useful right-hand-man down in Engineering.
CSO_LtJG_Sheva says:
FCO: That would be fantastic. Not sure what I could teach you in return that wouldn't put you to sleep.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
::Nods:: CEO: He was one of my first experiences of being covered in blood.  You should ask him about it sometime.  Did I say I was a researcher?  I mean I AM a licensed doctor...but that wasn't my forte before I arrived on board.
OPS_LtJG_Fong says:
::sighs ever so slightly,:: CIV: I have the Governor’s Secondary Administrative Officer's Chief Administrative Assistant on the line.
CIV_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
OPS: Sounds like a place to start. Thank you.
Host CO_Capt_Damrok says:
::Visibly relaxes a bit::  CNS:  I'm glad to hear it.  ::Smiles, almost sheepishly...almost::  I have a great deal to run by you.

CEO_Ens_Siddig says:
::wide-eyed:: MO: Yes, I will have to ask him about that. ::changes subject:: MO: So you research plagues?
 FCO_SubLt_T’alin says:
CSO: I was spoiled growing up until I chose my profession.  You'd be surprised.  Knowledge is power.
MO_LtJG_Simmons says:
