:: in her quarters deciding what to do with the time off ::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
Self: Let's see, should I go to the lounge or just stay here.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
::gets up from Command Chair:: Duty Officer: You have the conn. I'll be in the Lounge for a while.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
<DO> CO: Aye Skipper ::moves to Command Chair::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: decides to change into some casual clothes :: Self: Ok, this should do.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
::Walking into the lounge, looking to get a little bit of time to relax before we get closer to the source of the signal.:: Waiter: Just bring me a cup of soup. Syto bean soup that is. And a glass of Klah if your Replicators can manage it.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: brushes her hair and smiles at her reflection in the mirror :: Self: This is as good as it gets Jinx. :: laughs and heads for the lounge ::
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
::gets into turbolift:: TL: Deck 2 The Box Lounge
Host CO_Capt_Adams (TurboLift.wav)
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: steps into the lift :: Computer : Deck 2 please.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
::Sitting in the lounge contemplating his Irish Car bomb that's sitting on the table::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
::Smiles as the waiter walks off, then pulls out her PADD.:: Self: What do these readings mean? There's a pattern in there, just gotta see the blasted thing.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: arrives at The Box and looks around as she steps inside ::
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
::arrives at turbolift station near The Box Lounge on Deck 2 and exits::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
::The Waiter comes and slides the order on the table, and then walks away. Trix takes a drink of the Klah, then frowns.:: Self: Ugh, should have known you can't Replicate this. Oh well, could be worse.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
::enters the lounge and immediately spies Ens. Sampson::
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
Self: Through the lips and over the gums look out belly here it comes. ::Downs his drink and slaps the table as it goes down::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: spots Ensign Sampson and wonders what that thing is on the table ::
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
::Sees the Captain walk in and immediately stands at attention still trying to catch his breath::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
::Hears the table slap and looks over in a bit of surprise. Then grins, realizing what he just did. The Academy wasn't that long ago.::
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
TO: At ease Ensign. Please, be seated. What are you drinking?
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
CO: The first and last Irish Car bomb of the night Sir.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: wonders if she should go over since the Captain just arrived at the Ensign's table ::
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
::sees the FCO and the CSO: FCO/CSO: Please Lieutenants, come over and join us.... The Ensign is buying the first round ::chuckles::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO: I don't think that will be necessary, but sounds good. ::Reaches down and slips PADD into pouch, then grabs soup and drink and walks over.::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: hears the Captain and slowly walks over :: CO/TO: Good evening.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
:: Holds the pint glass up and waves it around to signal the bartender to bring a pint for everyone::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: sees Trix and nods ::
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: Top o the evenin' Lieutenant
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
TO: Given the fact you're happy you got that down, do we want to try it?
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
TO: Excuse me Ensign, but what is that on the table?
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
FCO: Good evening Lieutenant.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: A pint glass with a shot glass inside
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: smiles at Trix :: CSO: Hello.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
Bartender: Just the pints... Hold the "bombs"
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
All: I can tell you all, we're perhaps in for a bit of rough waters ahead, but for now, we're en route, and can take a breath..... ::waits for the barkeep to arrive with the drinks::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
TO: Bombs?
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: takes a seat ::
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: that would be the shots of whiskey inside the pint
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
TO: Ah, I see.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO: Rough waters? From that signal? So far we've not been able to make much sense of it, Captain. But I'm guessing we're not the first to have that issue if Starfleet expects trouble.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
TO: These remind me of what used to be called "Boiler Makers." Something from what was called Indiana I think?
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
CO: Just where are we headed Sir?
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: keeps staring at the Ensign's drink ::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO/ TO: You humans like weird drinks. Adding stuff together, including worms? I hate to imagine what kind of stuff didn't make it for you.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
TO: The precise location is classified for the moment. 
CSO: I can't get into details for the moment, but it's critical for you and your team to come up with some ideas. But, for the moment, relax. It will do you good to do that.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: ::raises his glass:: This is just a pint of ale
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
TO: Yes, but why do you need to put a bomb in it?
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO: You tell me that our mission is headed into rough waters and then tell me to relax? ::Smiles.:: Sounds like an interesting mission coming up.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: It's just the name of the drink. The shot of Irish whiskey in a pint of Irish beer and you have an "Irish car bomb"
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
::chuckles at the comments:: FCO: perhaps you should give it a try. After all, it's all synthahol... not quite the real thing.... but you might understand after you swallow ::chuckles again::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
TO: Strange.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
TO: Isn't whiskey considered "hard" alcohol and beer typically considered "softer"? Why not just take one somewhere in the middle and save the bartender some work?
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
CO: I've never had anything like that Captain.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
CSO: At least for the moment... give your mind a chance to clear for a minute, then maybe things will be a bit clearer after.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO: Yes Sir. I understand. Although things usually get clearer for me when my minds realize which part knows what the heck is going on.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
CSO: the whiskey is the "bomb" because its like an explosion in your mouth after the ale goes down
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
FCO: Famous quote, "For all things, there is a first time ::raises glass:: All: To the finest starship in this sector... if not the galaxy!
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
TO: Oh, I think I get it. I'll stick to your Tequila if going earthy I think. ::Whispers.:: I actually just like making Trix feel funny about the drink.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
::Raises his glass:: ALL: La Chaim!!!
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
CSO: Some of us wish we had more than one mind, others wish they could replace the one they had. I'll settle for my own
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
::Grabs one of the drinks, shrugs, and takes a drink.::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: picks up the glass and takes a sip :: Self : Ewwww!
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: My father always used to tell me that God made whiskey to prevent the Irish from taking over the world.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO: Yes, I've heard things like that before. Just wish mine acted more like they told us it would. ::Glances down and grins.:: In other words wish I didn't get a broken one.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
TO: The Irish want to take over the world?
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
TO: Yeah, I'll leave these drinks to you. Not sure it's my style.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: Why would they? They already have the finest whiskey ever made. What more could they want?
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: takes another sip, not wincing as much this time ::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
TO: So whiskey stops the Irish?
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: because it keeps them so drunk they can't accomplish anything else.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
TO: Whiskey is the bomb so what is the ale?
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
::realizes this is the first time this part of the crew has spent a bit of time "off duty" together and smiles a small smile::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: thinks as she drinks ::
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: But Earth's civilization as we know wouldn’t exist if not for the Irish
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
TO: Then why does God want to keep them down?
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: Um... i guess the ale would be the car
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
TO: Are you Irish Ensign?
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: My father’s father was from Donegal
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: My mother’s side of the family was Native American... the Comanches
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
TO: So you have to drink whiskey to keep yourself from taking over the world?
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
FCO: I'd think it would be easier for him to just find another hobby, right?
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
CSO: This is confusing.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: Don't have to no, but drinking it is a lot more fun than trying to run an entire planet.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
TO: Maybe I should try that whiskey sometime. It must be very powerful.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: doesn't realize that she's finished her ale and sips from an empty glass ::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO: So Captain, if whiskey keeps the ensign from taking over the world, should we just send it to the th'Alcair home world perhaps?
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: leans over :: CO: Captain, do you enjoy this whiskey too?
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: laughs :: CSO: What a wonderful idea!
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
CSO: You know, that might work.... ::laughs a little more than softly::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
CSO: We could load a torpedo and "pow," send it to the th'Alcair.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
FCO: Nothing like a good Scottish malt, especially if properly aged.... ::pokes at the TO::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
CO: Sir, could we try the real thing sometime? It sounds interesting.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
FCO: After this mission, when we get back to New Frontier, if we've accomplished our orders, I'll treat for the first round ::hoping they don't think to ask where their Captain is hiding "the real thing.::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: grins :: CO: Ah yes, you can open your secret...well, you know.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO: Sounds interesting. Better than Tellar swill my chief chemist likes.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
All: I would like to stay longer and enjoy another round, but I do need to catch a wink or two before we arrive. 
Barkeep: Barkeep, put this round on my tab and see that they all are out of here in an hour ::winks::
