OPS_Webster says:
::at OPS::

CMO_Fielding says:
@Amb: Permission to speak to one of the officials here once we arrive, sir?

OPS_Webster says:
::attempts to contact the amb::

OPS_Webster says:
*Amb*: Ambassador Sea, this is the DJ.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@CMO: Certainly but I request you not enter into a topic which broaches negotiations.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::in engineering, skimming over an impulse drive status report while she sits at her station::

CTO_Grayson says:
::at tactical, still running tests.  He wants to make sure he has everything perfect.::

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@<Guard 1>:: walks towards castle with the others following::

Amb_John_Sea says:
@*OPS*: Sea here

CMO_Fielding says:
@::raises her eyebrows:: Amb: Aye, sir.  Actually, after I speak with them, I think I'll beam up with them... nothing for a CMO to do here.

King_Traylor says:
@::Dusts off non-existent dust specks from his royal clothing.::

OPS_Webster says:
*Amb*: Sir, the Captain would like me to keep in audio contact with you, if you have no objection.

CMO_Fielding says:
Amb_John_Sea says:
@CMO: If you like

Amb_John_Sea says:
@OPS: I will keep an open channel

OPS_Webster says:
*Amb*: Aye, sir.  Good luck.

Host Captain_Grift says:
*AMB*: I hope all goes well in your negotiations Ambassador.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@*CO* Thank you Sir, I will report my findings to you

Host Captain_Grift says:
*Amb*: We're only a comm. away if you need us.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::stands and makes her way to the master situation display and begins keying in some tweaked warp intermix ratio algorithms::

King_Traylor says:
@::Waits for the Federation Negotiation team and is still a bit concerned that they wanted three and not the indicated two.::

OPS_Webster says:
::checks her charts:: CO: Sir, we are 2 mins. from the asteroid belt.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::follows the guards and surveys the area::

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@<Guard 1> ::arrives at castle doors and opens them:: Amb/Doctor: After you.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::proceeds into the castle::

King_Traylor says:
@::Stands straight as he sees the doors open.::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::jabs finger at a button and quickly reads over the impulse diagnostic report before the ship drops out of warp::

CMO_Fielding says:
@Guard 1: Thank you.  ::goes through the doors, amazingly not getting lost::

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::Carrying his notepad::

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::standing next to King Traylor::

OPS_Webster says:
::drops ship out of warp:: CO: Sir, we're here ::grins::

CMO_Fielding says:
@::looks around her at the castle.  ::Castles=cool.::

CTO_Grayson says:
::looks up as he feels the ship drop from warp:: Huh?  We're here?

Host Captain_Grift says:
::nods towards OPS::

Host Captain_Grift says:
XO: She's all yours.

CMO_Fielding says:
@::wonders how to greet the King and Queen, and guesses that whatever it is, just standing around isn't the proper method::

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::sees the people arrive and smiles to them:: Amb/CMO: Welcome.

King_Traylor says:
@::Smiles as he sees the Federation Delegation enter.:: ALL: Welcome.. Welcome. ::Holds his arms wide as to hug them, but remembers his manners and starts shaking hands.::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
*CTO*:  Tomiaz to Grayson... Diagnostics check out on the torpedo systems.  Pop an asteroid for me...

CMO_Fielding says:
@::smiles at the King and shakes hands with him:: King: Your Majesty.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@All: Greetings on behalf of the United Federation, that you for your welcome. ::shakes hands::

OPS_Webster says:
CTO: Ready whenever you are.

CMO_Fielding says:
@::smiles at the Queen as well::

King_Traylor says:
@::Smiles at the CMO and proceeds to the Ambassador.:: Amb: Its a pleasure to have you here.

CTO_Grayson says:
::looks over at the XO as if he were asking permission::

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@Amb: We are so pleased at your quick arrival. What would you like to see first?

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::enters turbolift, bridge bound::  TL:  Bridge.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King: Likewise, allow me to introduce the Don Johnson's Chief Medical Officer, Commander Fielding

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CTO:  You may begin the tests.

Host Captain_Grift says:
*CEO*: How does the warp core look after our little jog?

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::arrives on bridge, and makes her way to the engineering station where she punches up the same displays she had in engineering::

Amb_John_Sea says:
@Queen: Perhaps if we could sit down at a conference table and discuss your customs and legal systems

CTO_Grayson says:
::nods and targets one of the smaller asteroids, hesitates with his finger over the button for a moment, then presses it, (hopefully) firing a torpedo.::

King_Traylor says:
@::Smiles at the CMO and nods.:: CMO: A pleasure.

CMO_Fielding says:
@King: The pleasure is mine, Sire.  ::smiles::

OPS_Webster says:
::watches the torpedo's trajectory::

Host Captain_Grift says:
::watches the viewscreen for the explosion that would signal a hit::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::turns to face Grift::  CO:  Just like it's supposed to... big cylinder thing with pretty blue pulses going through it.  But if you want to get technical, it's performing well within design limits and would still be capable of standing up to even greater stresses... should the Captain wish to indulge.

CTO_Grayson says:
::watches as it flies toward the asteroid, going wide to the left.  He looks around at the others::

CMO_Fielding says:
@::raises her eyebrows at the Queen and smiles::

Host Captain_Grift says:
::grins:: CEO: Perhaps another time.

OPS_Webster says:
::turns to look at the CTO:: CTO: You seemed to have missed. ::grins::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::looks up from console::  CTO:  Which one were you aiming for again?

King_Traylor says:
@::Turns to the Ambassador.:: Amb: Yes, a conference room will do. ::Motions his arm towards his left, to a pair of doors.::

OPS_Webster says:
CTO: Maybe you should try a bigger one?

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::proceeds::

CTO_Grayson says:
::mumbles something and taps a few buttons on his console, inputting a new calibration:: All: Let's try this again

CMO_Fielding says:
@::looks toward the Queen and decides to follow her::

Host Captain_Grift says:
XO: Hmm... it doesn't appear the new targeting system is to effective.

CTO_Grayson says:
::targets an asteroid that's a bit bigger and fires again::

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::smiles back at the CMO:: Amb: Certainly. ::looks to the King::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
CTO:  I'll run another diagnostic on the targeting scanners... perhaps they're out of alignment.  ::begins diagnostic::

King_Traylor says:
@::Shows everyone to the Conference room.  Then opens the doors himself and holds them open for everyone to enter.::

OPS_Webster says:
::watches the second torpedo's trajectory::

CMO_Fielding says:
@King: Thank you, Sire.  ::goes through the doors::

CTO_Grayson says:
::grins as the second torpedo hits, but frowns again when he sees that it didn't really do much damage::

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::stands at the conference table until everyone is around and waits for the King and Queen to sit::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CO:  Probably just needs a little tweaking.  ::grins::

Host Captain_Grift says:
OPS: Make a note of the original torpedo’s trajectory. We'll have to retrieve it once our testing is complete.

OPS_Webster says:
CTO: At least you hit it this time ::grins::

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::enters and takes a seat::

OPS_Webster says:
CO: Aye, sir, I've been logging the trajectories.  It should be easy to find it after the test is over.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::waits for the King to sit::

Host Captain_Grift says:
OPS: Very good.

King_Traylor says:
@::Smiles and takes his royal seat and sits.::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
CTO:  Are you keeping them loaded with the standard 18.5 isotonic yield?

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King/Queen: Is your monarchy an elected office, or perhaps it is ancestral through bloodlines?

CMO_Fielding says:
@::noting that the royals are seated, sits down::

CTO_Grayson says:
CEO: Yes.  I'm guessing you're going to tell me to change it?

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::sits::

CMO_Fielding says:
@::really wishes she were off talking to someone somewhere about the Message from Federation Head Quarters::

OPS_Webster says:
::frowns:: CEO/CTO: Should a new targeting system affect what yield is used?

CEO_Tomiaz says:
CTO:  No, just curious... thought that last one would have made a "bigger bang" then I thought.  ::smiles::

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::smiles brightly:: All: I have an idea. Please excuse my interruption Amb. But I could take your CMO to view our medical facilities while you two discuss politics.

CTO_Grayson says:
OPS: I don't believe so

OPS_Webster says:
CO: Sir, perhaps Professor Genius has some ideas?

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::shakes head in response to OPS's comment::

CMO_Fielding says:
@::brightens at the Queen's words::

Host Captain_Grift says:
OPS: Please hail Professor Genius and see what she has to say.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@Queen: Of course please do

OPS_Webster says:
CO: Aye, sir.

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::rises:: CMO: Come with me please.

CMO_Fielding says:
@::not much of a politician, April::

Prof_Genius says:
$::makes notes on the first two weapons tests:: Self: Hmm.... not good.

OPS_Webster says:
COM.: PG: Professor Genius, this is the DJ.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::Stands as the Queen stands, then sits down::

King_Traylor says:
@::Taps on a few buttons at the edge of his table and a bunch of consoles appear at each and every set, complete with controls.  Nods with approval to the Queen and CMO.:: Amb: On your console you'll see our government system.  ::Looks to him with a smile.:: We are elected for life terms.  Which has its good and bad points.

CTO_Grayson says:
::fiddles with a setting or two::

CMO_Fielding says:
@::bows and follows the Queen, after nodding at the King and the Ambassador::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::runs a hand through her hair::  CTO:  Well, it doesn't look like anything is wrong with the hardware.  Perhaps this has something to do with the transporter problems we had before?

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King: Are all members of the public permitted to vote in an election?

Prof_Genius says:
$COMM: DJ: Genius here. Go ahead.

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::walks regally to the doors of the castle with the CMO in tow::

OPS_Webster says:
COM: PG: We were wondering if you had any suggestions, Professor.

CMO_Fielding says:
@::glad that the Queen knows where she's going::

King_Traylor says:
@::Nods with a smile.:: Amb: Yes, they are.  We're set up like a monarchy, but are run more like a democratic government.  ::Laughs a bit.:: I didn't design it.  It's just the way things are here.

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::exits and walks out of the palace gates::

CMO_Fielding says:
@::not sure if she should say anything to the Queen or not, but decides to follow Her Majesty's lead for now::

Prof_Genius says:
$COMM: DJ:OPS: Is your CTO using positive targeting or the standard Federation method?

OPS_Webster says:
COM: PG: Just a moment, professor.

OPS_Webster says:
CTO: Lt, professor Genius would like to know if you are using positive targeting or the standard Fed method.

Prof_Genius says:
$::impatiently waits::

CTO_Grayson says:
OPS: Standard.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::grins:: King: What are your court systems like? Do individuals have liberties, which are guaranteed?

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::after a few meters she relaxes her demeanor:: CMO: You will love this place! We have a fine facility. ::smiles::

OPS_Webster says:
COM: PG: Professor, he is using the standard method.  Should he switch to positive targeting?

King_Traylor says:
@::Looks to his display and taps up some more commands.:: AMB: But I do have final say as to what is done. ::Sighs and frowns a bit.:: It can be very taxing upon each King...  Of course they do.

CMO_Fielding says:
@Queen: I am looking forward to seeing it, Your Majesty.  This is a very nice planet you have here.

Prof_Genius says:
#COMM: DJ: OPS: Didn't you people read the protocols? Of course, switch to positive targeting and adjust the torpedo launcher attitude by 15 percent.

King_Traylor says:
@::Brings up his peoples various customs.:: AMB: And now if you look, you'll see our various customs.  Many are like what many other planets of the Federation has.  And even your own earth.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King: Is your system of Government based on a constitution so that you have a Constitutional Monarchy?  Are there other branches of Government like a Parliament?

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::looks at the displays::

OPS_Webster says:
::frowns at her console:: COM: PG: I'm sorry, Professor.  We'll make those adjustments immediately.  Please stand by for another test.

CMO_Fielding says:
@::smiles, then decides the heck with it...:: Queen: I'm sorry if our sending down three people instead of two put some strains on your plans, Your Majesty.  It was a most unfortunate misunderstanding.

Host Captain_Grift says:
:: Doesn't like Genius' attitude::

OPS_Webster says:
CTO: Lt, did you get all that?  Switch to positive targeting and adjust the launcher 15 per cent.

CTO_Grayson says:
::frowns, wishing he'd remembered that part.  He immediately switches the targeting and adjusts the attitude by 15%::

CTO_Grayson says:
Okay, ready to fire again.

King_Traylor says:
@Amb: Yes and yes.  But our parliament is on their vacation.  I like our government most of the time. ::Sighs heavily.:: But it's times like this that I don't.  ::Whispers a bit.:: I think we have too many holidays here. ::Sighs and shrugs.::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::looks up from console::  CTO:  Nope... launcher tubes, targeting scanners and all related systems are working normally.  Scans also indicate that the targeting software is working fine.  Perhaps the computer is failing to take into account the gravitational pull of the nearby asteroids.

OPS_Webster says:
::crosses fingers::

CTO_Grayson says:
::targets the same asteroid and launches another torpedo, hoping it works this time::

King_Traylor says:
@::Leans closer to the Ambassador and whispers.:: AMB: I could change that with a pen stroke.  ::Shakes his head.:: But then they'd all be after my head. ::Chuckles ruefully.::

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@CMO: Thank you. We are very proud of what we have accomplished and look forward to joining the federation. ::points to a wonderfully constructed building:: There it is just ahead. Oh, about that....we were just a little confused. We thought that there was some mix up and that there would be problems. I must also apologize to you. ::smiles::

Prof_Genius says:
$COMM:DJ:OPS: Well, what are you people waiting for? Get on with it!

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King: Being a ruler is definitely difficult, I can’t even imagine.  You understand that if you are accepted as a member world, you will be required to sign the Federation Charter, which guarantees certain liberties, and there will be Federation Courts on your World, which will rule on Federation Charter issues

OPS_Webster says:
::sighs at the Professor's attitude:: COM: PG: Professor, if you will have noticed, another torpedo is headed toward the asteroid.

CTO_Grayson says:
::watches the torpedo hit and the asteroid explode.  He grins::  Hah!  Look at that!  ::whistles quietly::  Very nice...

Host Captain_Grift says:
::annoyed:: OPS: Perhaps we should let the Professor run her own tests.

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::ushers the CMO up the steps of the building::

OPS_Webster says:
::watches the asteroid explode::

OPS_Webster says:
CO: She is rather...abrupt, isn't she, sir?

CMO_Fielding says:
@::smiles with gratitude at the Queen's (unnecessary but much appreciated) apology:: Queen: This is a beautiful building, Your Majesty.  ::looks around her as she walks up the steps::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::makes her way around towards the command area::  CO:  Captain, with your permission, I'd like to take a shuttle and recover that missing torpedo...  The systems here check out and I could use the flight experience.

King_Traylor says:
@::Smiles.:: AMB: Yes I do know and understand about the United Federation of Planets Charter and all that.  And also of everything else that comes along with being a member of it. ::Smiles.:: I think it would benefit all of my people.  ::Smiles.:: The trade.. The improvements we can gain, and even some of the possible technological advantages too.

Prof_Genius says:
$::smiles as the asteroid explodes:: COMM:DJ:OPS: Congratulations, someone finally decided to read the manual.

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::checks out a few of the systems from his console and makes sure everything is up to par::

Host Captain_Grift says:
CEO: After our tests are completed we will retrieve the torpedo. I don't want a shuttle in there while we are still firing.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King: How long has your World had Warp Drive?

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@CMO: I hope you like it as much as we do. ::smiles brightly and snaps fingers to the guards at the doors::

OPS_Webster says:
CO/CTO/CEO: By my readings, this new system uses fewer resources than the one we normally use.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
CTO:  I'm just curious as to how our old software would perform in these situations... is there really any improvement?

CMO_Fielding says:
@::smiles again at the friendly queen:: Queen: I'm sure I will... beautiful and spotless.  Very conducive to health and wellness.  ::looks appreciatively at the nicely appointed walls and floors and such::

King_Traylor says:
@::Smiles.:: AMB: I think we might be able to help the you with some technological advances in a few areas.  Oh.  Well we've had warp technology for 75 years now.  Still somewhat in our.. ::Laughs.:: Infantile stages.. But we're still progressing too.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::stops mid sentence as OPS answers the question::

OPS_Webster says:
::continues:: CO/CTO/CEO: It would be a great benefit if we were in battle and needed resources in other areas.

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::as the guards open the doors she walks in first and takes on her "professional" look....turns to make sure the CMO is following::

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King: How does the concept of having Starfleet Bases on your world and numerous starships in your immediate area and orbit seem to you?

CMO_Fielding says:
@::follows the Queen::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
OPS:  Well, I'm glad to see the improvement in the targeting software... feel free to send Professor Genius my congratulations.

CTO_Grayson says:
::nods in agreement with OPS::

Prof_Genius says:
$COMM: DJ:OPS: Continue the testing and I will observe from here, but I must conserve my resources so I will be initiating comm. silence. Genius out.

CMO_Fielding says:
@Queen: What are the most common types of medical interventions you perform here, Your Majesty?

OPS_Webster says:
CEO: I guess I won't get to send her your congratulations.  She just cut off comms.

King_Traylor says:
@::Laughs a bit.:: AMB: I myself will think its great.  We'll meet new cultures, new people and customs. ::Sighs.:: Much of my people love the idea.  We're scientists at heart.  It seems to be our nature to explore and such.  But haven't you thought about sitting in my position?  I mean think of all the possibilities?  Becoming a member of the UFP?

Host Captain_Grift says:
CTO: How exactly does the software improve our targeting?

OPS_Webster says:
CO/CTO: Professor Genius would like us to continue the testing.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
All:  Since we may be here for a while, I think I'll take this time to flush the deuterium injectors.  ::clasps hands together, not expecting anyone to notice or care and backs her way into the turbolift::

King_Traylor says:
@::Smiles greatly.:: AMB: I'm sure we can help the Federation in a few ways.  But they can help us even more.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
TL:  Engineering.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::nods:: King: Membership definitely will be mutually beneficial ::smiles::; are you in need of trade for any specific good or service from the Federation?

Host Captain_Grift says:
OPS, CTO: By all means, please continue the testing.

OPS_Webster says:
::nods at the CO and then turns to the CTO:: CTO: I'll keep logging your torpedoes...you keep blowing things up.

King_Traylor says:
@::Smiles.:: AMB: No, not really.  It's more of the exploring of new things that we're looking forward to.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::arrives in engineering, grabbing her toolkit and heads for the deuterium regulators::

Prof_Genius says:
$::hopes that after the tests conclude, that the rather handsome CTO will take the time to call her::

Host Captain_Grift says:
::chuckles at Lt. Cmdr. Webster’s comment:: OPS: Now, now... this is serious scientific work here.

CTO_Grayson says:
::stops himself before he answers the CO and shrugs::  OPS: You know, there's a lot more to tactical than 'blowing things up.'  ::targets one of the biggest asteroids he can find and fires again::

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King: I would like to meet with some of your Parliament leaders, even though Parliament is not is session

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@CMO: We have eliminated quite a few diseases, which have not come back for several hundred years. We do a lot of non-invasive surgery. Just normal care of our citizens. ::smiles:: What section would you like to view first?

CMO_Fielding says:
@Queen: Well... ::smiles a bit shyly:: I always had a soft spot for the psychiatric wards, if you have them...

OPS_Webster says:
CTO: Of course there is, Lt. I didn't mean to imply there wasn't ::snickers and turns back to her console::

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@CMO: Of course, follow me. ::takes off down a hall to the right::

King_Traylor says:
@::Taps on his console and leans closer as he reads the display.:: AMB: If you wouldn't mind waiting some hours.  I can have Senator Timak here in about 6 hours or so.  ::Taps on the console to send him a message to get to the palace.::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::climbs a few decks worth of Jeffries tubes and arrives as the deuterium injector assembly, waiting for engineering to reduce the flow to the lowest level before starting to flush the system while a team at the other end does so with the anti-deuterium injector::

CTO_Grayson says:
::can't help but grin at the big explosion.  Sure, he's into more than just blowing stuff up, but he'd almost forgotten how much fun this could be::

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King: That would be most kind, the Don Johnson will be off world for a little longer

CMO_Fielding says:
@Queen: Non-invasive surgery must have been one of the best innovations in the Federation as well.  ::smiles:: We have a lot in common, your world and the Federation.

King_Traylor says:
@::Looks up to the Ambassador and smiles.:: AMB: Ok.  From his message he'll be a bit later than 6 hours.  But he's on his way.  ::Whispers.:: I think he's with one of his... Lady friends.  ::Sits straight.::

CTO_Grayson says:
CO: How many torpedoes do you want me to fire before we finish here, sir?

CTO_Grayson says:
::gets ready to fire again::

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::nods:: King: Perhaps we could tour the city and meet some of your people on the street?

OPS_Webster says:
CO: Sir, shall I contact the ambassador and let him know we are almost finished with our tests?

CEO_Tomiaz says:
*OPS*:  Commander, you'll notice a significant drop in power reserves during the next five minutes... don't be alarmed.  There's still plenty to go around for primary systems.

CMO_Fielding says:
@::follows the Queen toward her Most Favorite Part of a Medical Facility Ever::

OPS_Webster says:
*CEO*: Acknowledged.  Thank you, Lt.

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@CMO: Yes, I think we do too. That is why we made the decision to join with you. ::turns left down another hall::

King_Traylor says:
@::Nods.:: AMB: Sure, if you would like to. ::Gets up and snaps his fingers to one of the servants who quickly open the doors.::

CMO_Fielding says:
@::follows the Queen, and wonders how the Ambassador and the King are getting along...::

Host Captain_Grift says:
OPS: Contact Professor Genius and see how much more data she requires.

OPS_Webster says:
CO: Aye, sir.

CTO_Grayson says:
::waits until OPS contacts the professor::

OPS_Webster says:
::presses a button:: COM: PG: Professor Genius, how much more data do you require?

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::chats with the King::

Prof_Genius says:
$::turns the shuttle and heads away from the DJ::

CMO_Fielding says:
@::looks around the gleaming clean facility::

OPS_Webster says:
::watches the Prof's shuttle head away:: COM: PG: Professor Genius, come in please.

King_Traylor says:
@::Exits the room and walks along with the Ambassador.:: AMB: Many of my people are probably what you would call.. ::Tries to think of the word.  Raises his hand in confusion:: Workers?  ::Shakes his head as they exit the palace.:: Scientist of all trades. ::Smiles and nods as it seems more appropriate.::

CTO_Grayson says:
::blinks:: Um...where is she going?

OPS_Webster says:
CO: Sir, the professor's shuttle has headed away from the DJ.

Prof_Genius says:
$::sends an encrypted message as she leaves to the DJ::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::sits in his chair, trying to look important, but not feeling it right now::

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::takes a crystal out and places it in a spot near the side of the door..........the door slides open:: CMO: After you. ::removes crystal and pockets it::

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::nods:: King: Do you have any questions for me?

Host Captain_Grift says:
OPS: Is she responding to our hails?

CMO_Fielding says:
@Queen: Thank you, Your Majesty.  ::goes through the doors and looks around.  Ah, to be home again...::

OPS_Webster says:
CO: Not verbally, sir, but I just received an encrypted message.  Trying to decipher.

Prof_Genius says:
$::message contains two words::

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::follows the CMO:: CMO: Excuse me? Home?

CEO_Tomiaz says:
Self:  Most people can't appreciate how much power it takes to generate a 1500-plus Cochran field... all they want is to push a button and go Warp 9 here, and Warp 9 there.  But guess who's down here, busy scrubbing the manifold... the engineers.  ::sighs, then taps some readings into her PADD before Engineering brings the system to full power::

CMO_Fielding says:
@Queen: ::blushes a bit:: I was a psychiatrist in the past... it's always been my first love.

OPS_Webster says:
CO: Sir, I'm not sure if I deciphered this correctly.  It just says "Call Me!"

King_Traylor says:
@::Stops in mid stride and places his hand upon the Ambassadors arm.  Then pulls it back, embarrassed.:: AMB: Well.. I've heard that the Federation has many research posts through out this quadrant of the Galaxy.  You see? I've been a scientist...  And would like to return someday. ::Sighs.:: Probably won't happen... But I know a lot of my people...

OPS_Webster says:
::turns to look at the CTO::

Host Captain_Grift says:
OPS: Curious...  ::eyes the CTO::

CMO_Fielding says:
::goes through the doors and looks around.:: Ah, to be home again and...

King_Traylor says:
@::Starts walking again.:: AMB: I know a lot of my people would probably want to go to such stations, or outposts.  Would there be any limitations or problems if they did?

OPS_Webster says:
CO: I guess this means she has enough data, dir.

CTO_Grayson says:
::his face begins to turn red again::

Host Captain_Grift says:
OPS: I guess so.

Host Captain_Grift says:
CTO: Can we disarm and beam our errant torpedo onboard?

CTO_Grayson says:
CO: Ahem...uh, yes sir...

Host Captain_Grift says:
CTO: Make it so. And I want engineering to take that thing apart to see what failed.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King: Once you are approved for Membership, your people will be eligible to enter Starfleet Academy, join research teams and visit other member worlds without any legal restrictions

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::climbs down Jeffries tube::  Self:  The matter reactant injector is connected to the... magnetic constriction segment.  The magnetic constriction segment is connected to the... matter/antimatter reaction chamber.  The matter/antimatter reaction chamber is connected to the plasma conduits and injectors, and that's what makes warp speed happen.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::sung to the tune of The Wheels on the Bus::

OPS_Webster says:
CO: Sir, shall I contact the ambassador now?

CEO_Tomiaz says:
Self:  Why, if I don't get out of here... I'm liable to start talking to myself.

Host Captain_Grift says:
OPS: Negative. Wait till we're back in orbit.

OPS_Webster says:
CO: Aye, sir.

CTO_Grayson says:
CO: Aye sir.

Host Captain_Grift says:
OPS: Once our torpedo is onboard, set a return course for the planet.

OPS_Webster says:
CO: Yes, sir.  ::taps on her console:: Course laid in, sir.

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@CMO: Oh? What an interesting field. Feel free to inspect anything you like. ::gestures to the CMO that it's ok to roam around::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::arrives back in engineering, heading over to her duty station::

King_Traylor says:
@::Walks around as many of his people stop and look at the Ambassador  and smile.  Stops in mid stride again and turns to the Ambassador with his mouth hanging open:: AMB: Oh my!  I saw that in the massive amounts of paper work they gave me.  This hopefully will be a great time for my people as well as yours.  Many of my people don't mind the...

CMO_Fielding says:
@::beams at the Queen:: Queen: Thank you, Your Majesty!

King_Traylor says:
@::Starts walking again.:: AMB: Don't mind the tedious work.

CTO_Grayson says:
::hides his face as he looks back down at his console and disarms the still-flying torpedo, ready to be beamed back aboard::

CMO_Fielding says:
@::looks around her, taking in everything::

OPS_Webster says:
::transports the torpedo back on board::

CMO_Fielding says:
@::the unit is filled with sunlight, colorful yet soothing pictures decorating the walls in the common room...::

OPS_Webster says:
CTO: You should have your torpedo back now.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
Engineer:  Sadler, take team beta up to Deck 5... we're getting more complaints about the hot water not working.

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King: Starfleet has entire ships dedicated to solely scientific study.  The Vulcan Science Academy on Vulcan is a storehouse of knowledge

CTO_Grayson says:
OPS: Thank you

OPS_Webster says:
CO: The torpedo is back on board and the course is laid in, sir.

Host Captain_Grift says:
OPS: Engage.

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::silently follows the CMO::

CTO_Grayson says:
*CEO*: Okay, the torpedo's all ready for you and your people to take it apart and do...whatever it is you engineers do.

OPS_Webster says:
::presses the big green button and feels the ship go to warp::

CMO_Fielding says:
@::the patients are engaged in some quiet activities... a card game of some kind is going on in the center of the common room::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::taps chest::  *CTO*:  Acknowledged... it's now at the top of the list.  Engineering out.

CMO_Fielding says:
@::the staff is present, some interacting with the patients, others monitoring, yet others speaking quietly in groups::

King_Traylor says:
@::Smiles as his eyes water a bit, longing for such a place.  Quickly blinks the tears away and takes a deep breath and continues.:: AMB: Gee... ::Is a bit speechless as he thinks about how lucky his people, especially the young, if they can make it into the United Federation of Planets.:: I'm a bit speechless...

CTO_Grayson says:
All: Well...I think that went well.

CMO_Fielding says:
@::the facility is clean and roomy::

CMO_Fielding says:
@Queen: This is perhaps the most... welcoming psych unit I have ever seen, Your Majesty.

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CTO:  Yes... very nice job, Lieutenant.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
*CTO*:  Umm... just one question, if I may?  Where is this... torpedo located at the present moment?

OPS_Webster says:
::turns to the CTO:: CTO: Yes, I agree.  Congrats.

Host Captain_Grift says:
CTO: For you with Professor Genius it seems to have went well....

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King: The Federation is a wonderful organization made up of generous and good souls.  One significant benefit is that should your planet experience famine or plague, Starfleet will airlift medicine and food

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@CMO: Thank you. We do try to help all.

OPS_Webster says:
CO: We should be back at Torvald II in 10 mins, sir.

CMO_Fielding says:
@Queen: I think how we treat our most vulnerable citizens are how we define ourselves... and, from what I see here... your people are beautiful.

CTO_Grayson says:
::smiles at the others, his face reddening again:: *CEO*: Uh, I assumed that Lt. Cmdr. Webster beamed it to engineering...

Host Captain_Grift says:
::Wonders how the negotiations are going::

King_Traylor says:
@::Nods.:: Amb: We shouldn't have that problem as we have quite an abundance of power. ::Continues walking.:: I've thought about the possibilities for my people... But not until now... Have I really.. got a good picture.

CMO_Fielding says:
@Queen: I think the Federation has a lot to learn from your people.  I really do hope that the King and the Ambassador are having as nice a time as we are... well, I know that *I* am having a wonderful time... ::smiles::

Amb_John_Sea says:
@::continues walking::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
*CTO*:  Thanks again, I'll get right on it.

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@::beams at the CMO's words:: CMO: I know you don't have the time to look at everything while you are here but you are welcome to come back anytime.

CMO_Fielding says:
@Queen: That would be wonderful, Your Majesty.  ::smiles brightly::

OPS_Webster says:
::pulls up the trajectory data on the torpedo test in preps for her report::

King_Traylor says:
@::Pauses as he sees the market coming up.:: AMB: Just up ahead. ::Points.:: Is our market.  My people generally don't need this... ::Laughs.:: More of..  A custom so to speak.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
All:  Anyone notice a torpedo lying around?  We keep losing those things... ::turns a corner and finds it::  ...never mind.

CMO_Fielding says:
@Queen: Are you a medical scientist yourself, Your Majesty?  ::notices that the Queen seems quite comfortable in the hospital setting::

Amb_John_Sea says:
@King: What do you think would be your world's chief export?

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::motions for engineering team to step forth::  Team:  First, let's drain the warhead and then take it apart.  Scan each individual component separately while I check out the targeting data from the onboard computer.

Host Queen_Tranya says:
@CMO: I have had training in many things from the time I was a small child. I must know much about these and other things to take my place as Queen. ::hopes the CMO understands::
