@::outside the conference hall::

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::whispers:: CNS: I have changed my mind.  empathic abilities only.

MO_Wyn says:
::is sitting in his quarters sipping a cup of tea still reading over PADDs::

CEO_K`Vas says:
:: in engineering  overseeing the repairs ::

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@:walking down the corridor deep in thought following Sykora and the Counsellor::

TO_Re`Volos says:
::in his quarters playing with the mongoose::

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::whispers back:: XO: Alright.  ::looks at her puzzled:: What changed your mind?

CMO_Hunter says:
::strolls out of his bed room hair mussed from sleep, blinks blearily around their quarters::

CSO_Syrna says:
::in the lounge, drinking some more Bolian tonic water::

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::whispers::  CNS: She would not approve such methods.

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::motions her head back to the CO::

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::turn at the entrance::  CO/CNS: Ready?

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel>  ::Arrives at the entrance to the conference room, Lieutenant Carla Rheims in tow.::

CNS_Jakiel says:
@XO:  I see.  I will abide by that of course.  Yes, I'm ready.  After you.

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::nods to the Admiral and the Lt::  Admiral: Good morning

CEO_K`Vas says:
~~~CNS: Stay safe little one~~~

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::a little nervously, but smiles::  ~~~CEO:  I will try my best~~~

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> CO/XO: Greetings.  Are we ready to conclude this business?

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::looks up at Sy and nods then looks over at the Admiral:: Admiral: Good Morning,  Ma'am

OPS_D`von says:
::enters the lounge, spotting Syrna and makes his way over to her::

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::nods and allows the Admiral and Lt to enter first::

CSO_Syrna says:
::senses Alyx's presence, turns to face him:: OPS: Greetings.

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> ::Enters the room, several PADDs under her arm.::

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@Admiral: Aye ma'am.  Ready as I'll ever be. ::grins as she follows the Admiral into the room::

Host Brett says:
@<Rhiems> ::Smiles shyly at the two officers and follows the Admiral into the room.::

OPS_D`von says:
::smiles at her:: CSO: Hey, what you drinking?

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::stands behind the CO and XO and notices the Admiral addressing the other two::

CSO_Syrna says:
OPS: Bolian tonic water... it helps to purify and remove toxins from one's system. It is bitter to the taste if you are in need of it.

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::gives the Lt a courteous smile::

OPS_D`von says:
::smiles at her:: CSO: Oh, I think I will pass. I happen to like my toxins ::motions to the bartender to come over::

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::follows the rest of the troop quietly::

CMO_Hunter says:
::showers and changes into his uniform::

Host Brett says:
INFO: Inside the conference room, things have changed little.  Commanders Modex and Tellus still sit in their same chairs, almost as if they never left.  Carla Rhiems assumes Doleo's former position, the Admiral hers.

CSO_Syrna says:
::gives OPS a shy sort of look but does not shy away from his touch as he sidles up to the bar::

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::nods to the others and then heads over to her seat keeping a tight rein on her initial reaction to seeing Modex and Tellus::

CSO_Syrna says:
OPS: Apparently I have gained some of your... as they say bad habits... for this is quite bitter.

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::nods to all and takes her seat next to K'Beth::

OPS_D`von says:
<bartender> OPS: Your usually Alyx?

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::senses the captain's reaction to seeing the Romulans again.  Finds an unoccupied seat and stays open::

Host Brett says:
@<Modex> ::Stands and nods solemnly to K'Beth, almost a slight bow.::  CO: Captain, I am very pleased to see you again.  I had feared the worst.

CSO_Syrna says:
::takes another sip:: OPS: You haven't been "sugaring" my tea when I was not looking have you? ::eyes twinkle::

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::clenches her jaw for a moment and then forces a relaxed smile to her face:: Modex: Thank you, Commander.  I'm happy to be back.

Host Brett says:
@<Modex> ::Looks at her for a moment, smiles slightly, then sits. ::

Host Brett says:
@<Tellus> ::Looks impatient.::

OPS_D`von says:
::smiles:: CSO: Nope, not I Bartender: Not today, give me what she is drinking. I guess need purification

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::tries to decide how honest Modex is being::

CMO_Hunter says:
*MO*:: Wyn, what is your current location

CEO_K`Vas says:
*CEO Monahan*: Your repair crews are falling behind schedule, you will see that problem is rectified :: a growl in his voice for to put the point across::

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> Well, now that we are here, shall we begin?  ::Smiles at everyone, and then continues::  All of the specifics of our joint venture have been handled, there is only one last matter to attend to before we can begin this historic, and humanitarian mission.

CSO_Syrna says:
::raises an eyebrow at him wondering what is going on behind those blue eyes:: OPS: Purification? I thought you said you liked your toxins where they were. ::slides her hand over to touch his with her first two fingers::

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::leans forward and reaches for the coffee cup that was set at her place by the steward and then leans back in her chair and listens to the Admiral::

CMO_Hunter says:
*CEO*:: K’Vas, what is your shore leave schedule like?

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::turns her attention to the Admiral, but keeps her awareness of the others in tack::

CEO_K`Vas says:
<CEO Monahan>*CEO*: I will make sure they get back on schedule, Monahan out :: the hate for K’Vas is obvious in his voice::

OPS_D`von says:
<bartender> ::nods and pours him a glass of the tonic water, and shakes his head.:: OPS: Your are whipped huh ::slides the water over and heads off::

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::is not surprised to hear that most everything is set.  Watches the admiral but keeps her senses on Modex::

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> All: We simply need to determine who the Romulan representative aboard the Delphyne is to be.

CEO_K`Vas says:
*CMO*: My shore leave commander?

CSO_Syrna says:
::looks sharply at the bartender:: Bar: That was inappropriate. ::removes her hand::

CMO_Hunter says:
*CEO*:: Yes, shore leave I was of the understanding we were on a rotation

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::feels K'Beth tension rise even more as the Admiral speaks::

CEO_K`Vas says:
*CMO*: Aye sir there is a rotation and my engineers are on it

OPS_D`von says:
::smiles at her:: CSO: Ah, I guess every once in a while I need a little cleaning, you can’t dirty what isn't clean.  ::looks at the bartender as he walks off:: oh don't mind him, he is just upset, some of his cargo got missed up and he is blaming me

CMO_Hunter says:
*CEO*:: Good for your engineers, what about you

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::feels only an honest sense of joy from Modex at seeing the captain, almost as if there is more to his interest in her.  Looks a little puzzled from the captain and back to Modex, then back to the Admiral::

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::looks up sharply at the Admiral and then quickly regains her composure:: All: Anyone that the Romulan delegation would like to have accompany us will be welcome.

CSO_Syrna says:
::nods and relaxes a bit:: OPS: Cargo? How goes the re-supply?

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::nods her agreement with K'Beth::

CSO_Syrna says:
~~~OPS: It seems the Counselor is right... I have a difficult time controlling my emotions where you are concerned.~~~

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::takes a deep breath at the admiral's announcement, knowing K'Beth will not be pleased and feeling a little uncomfortable with a Romulan in board at this point in time::

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> ::Smiles::  CO: Excellent!

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::looks over at Tellus::

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> Modex: Commander, do you have anyone in mind?

CMO_Hunter says:
*MO*:: Ensign Wyn, your location please

CEO_K`Vas says:
*CMO*: I must stay on shift to assure that one of the engineers from the base does not tamper with the systems sustaining our guest, sir

MO_Wyn says:
*CMO*:  I am in my quarters, Sir.

Host Brett says:
@<Modex> All: In point of fact, I do.  CO: I will be your guide.  ::Smiles::

OPS_D`von says:
CSO: Everything is going great, I assume you.....::stops mid sentence as she pops into his head, he will never get used to that.  It is kind of weird to hear someone’s voice just appear out of nowhere::

Host Brett says:
@<Tellus> ::A distinct look of displeasure passes over his features, but is quickly masked again.::

CMO_Hunter says:
*CEO*:: :sighs:: Alright K’Vas, but make sure you relax. Doctors orders

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::is not surprised to hear this announcement at all given the feelings Ariel senses from the tall Romulan::

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::raises her eyebrow at Modex's announcement::

CSO_Syrna says:
OPS: Assume I... ::motions to encourage him to go on::

CEO_K`Vas says:
*CMO*: I was planning to take my shoreleave after the repairs when I can spend time with Ari...I was planning to take shoreleave after the repairs sir

CMO_Hunter says:
*MO*:: What ever for? I'm heading to the Starbase for a drink care to join me?

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::looks straight at him for a moment before relaxing a bit and smiling back, inclining her head:: Modex: We would be honored.

OPS_D`von says:
::smiles:: CSO: Have submitted your list of supplies to my department for restocking?

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> All: Well, ::Claps her hands once in a gesture of happiness::  Then I believe we are done.  Only the signing of the documents to be done.  ::Slides the PADDs across the table to Tellus and Modex.::

CMO_Hunter says:
*CEO* Dinner with who? ::grin in his voice:: Very good Lt, Join me for a drink when you can, we'll have time. Hunter out.

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::Raises an eyebrow, catching Tellus' irritation, but keeps her gaze on the admiral::

Host Brett says:
@<Modex> CO: Nods his head respectfully.::

CSO_Syrna says:
OPS: Yes. I have, it is typically done before we reach Starbase. Did you not get it?

MO_Wyn says:
*CMO*:  I believe a drink is what the doctor ordered for this headache, Sir.  Where should I meet you?

CMO_Hunter says:
*MO*:: Just outside the Docking Umbilical would be fine/

Host Brett says:
@<Tellus> ::Rakes in the PADDs like poker winnings and begins reading them.::

CEO_K`Vas says:
:: shakes his head :: *CMO*: Yes sir I will try, thank you

MO_Wyn says:
::puts down his PADD and hurries out the door::

OPS_D`von says:
CSO: Oh, I am sure I did. I am letting one of my junior officers handle all the re-supplying this time.  He needs the experience  ::hopes he doesn’t mess things up::

CSO_Syrna says:
::hears thoughts of his concern:: OPS: If you are uncertain, perhaps you should check on your junior officer.

Host Brett says:
@<Modex> CO: I will endeavor to be a gracious guest.  Not use all the hot water, or take the last piece of cake...::Smiles::

CMO_Hunter says:
*TO* Ensign Re’Volos, your location please?

OPS_D`von says:
::grins::  CSO: I already have, did I not tell you everything was going great

Host Brett says:
@<Tellus> ::Finishes a PADD, hands it over to Modex, then reads the next one.::

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::leans back in her chair and sips her coffee while Tellus reads the PADDs.  Looks at Modex and wonders what his reasoning for being the Romulan liaison.  Cracks a smile at his joke:: Modex: In that case I'll make certain that you have clean sheets and don't have to bunk with the cadets.

MO_Wyn says:
::stretches out his neck and back as he walks down the corridor to the docking tube::

CSO_Syrna says:
OPS: Ah... well if you are sure. :;drinks more of her water::

Host Brett says:
@<Modex> ::Inclines his head::  CO: You are too kind.

TO_Re`Volos says:
*CMO*: In my quarters with Ricki, sir.

OPS_D`von says:
::finally takes a drink of the water, and almost spits it out:: CSO: You said it would be bitter, but... ::makes funny face::

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::is once again amused at all that is not said::

CMO_Hunter says:
*TO*:: Good, join me and Ensign Wyn at the Docking Umbilical we're going for a drink

Host Brett says:
@<Modex> ::Looks briefly at the PADD then places his thumb print on it.::

TO_Re`Volos says:
::grinning:: *CMO*: Be right there sir

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::smiles at Modex::  Modex: Commander,  if you should need anything please let me know.  I would be honored to make your stay comfortable.

CEO_K`Vas says:
:: Thinks this is not the way be part of the crew:: EO Reed: Ensign you are to monitor the holodeck systems if there are any variances contact me immediately

CSO_Syrna says:
::almost laughs:: OPS: I did indeed warn you... by now you should be aware of the Vulcan predilection for... understatement... ::a tiny smile as she drinks more water::

CEO_K`Vas says:
<EO Reed> CEO: Yes sir, I will do my best

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::in a serious tone:: Modex: But you will have to take a turn at KP duty.  After all...we can't just give you a free ticket.  ::gives a small grin and relaxes more::

CMO_Hunter says:
::makes his way to the Docking Umbilical

Host Brett says:
@<Modex> CO: It will be my pleasure, I assure you.

TO_Re`Volos says:
::puts Ricki in the cage with his toys and heads to the Umbilical::

CEO_K`Vas says:
:: begins heading for the TL :: *CMO*: Commander if the invitation is still open I have some time to spare

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::half smiles with Modex's last comment.  She really needs a moment to speak with the captain::

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::chuckles and waits for the PADDs to be passed back::

Host Brett says:
@<Tellus> ::Finishes the last PADD and hands it to Modex who, after glancing at it, "signs" it.::

MO_Wyn says:
::Sees the CMO as he approaches the umbilical.  waves::  CMO: Greetings, Sir.

Host Brett says:
Action: In short order, the PADDs are passed to the Admiral and the "paperwork" is completed.

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> ::Stands, smiling::  All: Ladies and gentlemen, this is a momentous occasion.  I wish us all the best of luck.

CMO_Hunter says:
MO:: Ensign, for gods sake call me Doc or Owyn or Hunter ill answer to them all

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::stands as well::

TO_Re`Volos says:
::reaches the umbilical and sees the CMO and the MO:: CMO/MO: Sorry to keep you waiting

OPS_D`von says:
::takes another drink of the water, and acts like it is killing him to swallow it:: CSO: I must be full of those toxins, because this stuff is awful

CMO_Hunter says:
TO:: Just got here Rev, no problems

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::puts her coffee cup on the table and stands also:: Admiral: Thank you, Admiral.

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::stands.  an interesting, short and sweet meeting::

CMO_Hunter says:
*CEO*Excellent we're in the docking umbilical, we'll wait for you here

TO_Re`Volos says:
MO: I don't believe we've met. I am Ensign Re'Volos, Tactical Officer

CSO_Syrna says:
::nods:: OPS: Indeed. I have been drinking this for near a week now I and it is just beginning to be tolerable.

CEO_K`Vas says:
*CMO*: Aye sir on my way

Host Brett says:
@<Modex> All: Then with your permission Admiral, we will return to our ships.

OPS_D`von says:
::looks at her:: CSO: What have you been doing to get toxins in your systems. Did you find my stash ::smiles::

MO_Wyn says:
::chuckles::  CMO:  Alright Doc.  ::Looks at the TO.  smiles::  TO: Greetings, I'm Ensign Wyn, Medical Officer::

Host Brett says:
@<Modex> CO: Captain, I will see you in six days.  ::Nods graciously::

CEO_K`Vas says:
:: within a couple minutes he appears in the docking umbilical :: CMO/MO/TO : Greetings

CSO_Syrna says:
OPS: I do believe it is the level of caffeine I have been consuming.... ::looks into her near empty glass and almost looks sad::

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::looks over at Modex:: Modex: Of course Commander.  If you need anything special for your stay you only have to ask.

CMO_Hunter says:
CEO: K’Vas, I believe you know our Tactical officer Ensign Re’Volos, but this, this is my new assistant Ensign Wyn,

CMO_Hunter says:
MO:: Don't be scared, his bark is worse than his bite ::grins at K’Vas::

OPS_D`von says:
CSO: Well you could just stop drinking caffeine products

MO_Wyn says:
::nods in a mildly formal greeting, almost a bow::  CEO:  It is an honor to meet you, Sir.

Host Brett says:
Action: Kiel shakes hands with Modex, Tellus through his body language refuses to do so, and the two Romulan officers leave the room, to be escorted to the transporter room.

CEO_K`Vas says:
:: salutes :: MO: An honor to meet you also.

TO_Re`Volos says:
::looks at K'Vas:: Yes, I do believe we've met. Maybe once ::grins::

CSO_Syrna says:
OPS: I suppose I could and should... but there is a certain Bajoran who frequently doesn't allow me much time to sleep.... ::a corner of her mouth raises and she hides it behind her glass as she finishes it:: Not that I truly mind.

CMO_Hunter says:
CEO/MO/TO:: Great, now that all the warm fuzzy crap is done....lets go drink!

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> ::Sits on the table::  CO/XO: Well, that wasn't so hard.  ::Smiles broadly::

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::waits patiently as the commanders finish::

MO_Wyn says:
::laughs:: Aloud: Lead onward!

CEO_K`Vas says:
CMO: Now that is a doctors order no Klingon would argue with

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@Admiral: The hard part hasn't even begun, ma'am.

CMO_Hunter says:
@::makes like he’s going to start of a brisk walk, then gently strolls onward to the nearest Bar::

Host Brett says:
<MO_Wylie> *CMO*: Sickbay to Dr. Hunter.

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::sits down with a small show of relief:: Admiral: Very well played, ma'am.  Although you do know that having a Romulan liaison on board is going to be a little complicated.

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::nods at Sykora in agreement::

CMO_Hunter says:
@Aloud:: Bloody Hell!

OPS_D`von says:
::smiles at her:: CSO: I guess you are just going to have to start ending your duty shift early then

MO_Wyn says:
@::stifles a snicker::

CMO_Hunter says:
@::mutters under his breath::

TO_Re`Volos says:
@::grins::

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> CO: Well Captain, they're going to be following you anyway, what's one more?

CMO_Hunter says:
@*Wylie*:: ::in feign feminine voice::: I'm Sorry Doctor Hunter isn't here right now can I take a message

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::leans over to Sykora and whispers:: XO:  I will agree wholeheartedly with the captain.

CEO_K`Vas says:
@:: looks a bit confused at Hunter's impersonation ::

CSO_Syrna says:
::suppresses another laugh:: OPS: Care to imagine the Captain's face when I explain it to her?

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::nods to the CNS::

Host Brett says:
<MO_Wylie> *CMO*: Ummm, well, it is very important.  It involves a patient we have aboard the ship....

CMO_Hunter says:
@CEO/MO/TO:: If that works...there'll be commendations for all of you

CMO_Hunter says:
@Aloud: Bugger!

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::chuckles:: Admiral: Following is one thing...having one in my back pocket is another story. ::shakes her head and grins slightly:: But we'll make do.

CMO_Hunter says:
@*Wylie*:: Alright, what is it?

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::glad to see K'Beth a bit more relaxed::

OPS_D`von says:
CSO: Umm, and why would the Captain know.  Have you never heard of doing inventory, ::rolls his eyes:: you think I am really doing inventory all those times, heck no I am catching up on my sleep

MO_Wyn says:
@CMO: Is it something I may be of help with, sir?

CMO_Hunter says:
@MO:: No that’s alright, you lads go on ahead and I'll catch up.

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> CO: Captain, we haven't thought this plan out to the end, as we have no choice but to recruit the Romulans for their help...but what happens when you get to this mythical planet?  You had to know the Romulans would find out about it....perhaps having Modex with you will prove useful.

MO_Wyn says:
@::nods::

MO_Wyn says:
@::says with deadpan seriousness:: CMO: Doc, I think we'll be able to amply fulfill your vacant spot at the bar.

CMO_Hunter says:
@CEO: Take care of the Ensigns, K’Vas, don't lead then astray

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@Admiral: I'm just glad it is Modex and not Tellus who be accompanying us.  ::doesn't say anymore about it::

CSO_Syrna says:
OPS: Ah... I have oft wondered. ::pauses:: Perhaps... we should go back to your quarters or mine... as we are on shoreleave... we could eat... sleep... and... ::leaves the and to his imagination:: all day long.

Host Brett says:
<MO_Wylie> *CMO*: Well sir, umm, I have reviewed the records and it appears that the patient has not been eating for the past 36 - 48 hours.

CEO_K`Vas says:
@CMO: I will see to there safety sir

MO_Wyn says:
@::suddenly it dawns upon the poor MO that he is about to be drinking with the sole company of Klingons.  Notes to himself that he'll require an extra dose of his "hangover cure" when he gets back::

CMO_Hunter says:
@*Wylie*:: I'm on my way no sense in broadcasting it to the station...

OPS_D`von says:
CSO: Well, I am not really hungry at the moment, nor am I tired. So I guess we are going to have to skip right to the and part.

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> CO: As am I.  Are there any further questions?  A copy of the "treaty" will be sent to you within the hour.

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::nods and stands:: Admiral: Was there anything else that you needed, ma'am?

CEO_K`Vas says:
@:: continues on with his ship mates to the bar ::

CMO_Hunter says:
@::heads back to Sickbay::

CSO_Syrna says:
OPS: As you desire. ::gives him a small smile, hoping no one notices, then stands up::

MO_Wyn says:
@::smiles as he's certain to have an interesting time at the bar no matter what now::

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@Admiral: No ma'am...not at this time.  I assume the usual protocol will be in effect as long as Modex is on board?  Or will he be accorded complete diplomatic immunity and privileges?

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::debates whether to speak to the Admiral before leaving::

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> CO: It is my recommendation Captain that, as you will be deep in Romulan space, escorted or at least watched by extremely powerful ships, and will be quite beyond any hope of rescue or aid...that you be nice to him.  ::Smiles::

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::smiles at the Admiral::

CMO_Hunter says:
::arrives back in Sickbay:: Wylie:: Alright, fill me in

OPS_D`von says:
::stands with her:: CSO: Your quarters or mine?

CSO_Syrna says:
::begins to walk out of the lounge:: OPS: Yours... it is... more accommodating.

Host Brett says:
<Wylie> CMO: Well sir, ::hands him a PADD::  as you can see, the baby has not eaten for quite some time.  It seems to be restless, or disturbed.  It is also avoiding the surrogate.

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::chuckles:: Admiral: Aye ma'am...."Be nice to the Romulan."  will be the order of the day.  If that is all...I'll take my leave. ::stands waiting suddenly feeling exhausted::

CMO_Hunter says:
Wylie:: :;sighs:: Think it knows the surrogate is not real and the food isn’t its normal diet?

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> CO: Very good Captain, see you in a  couple of days.  Until then, get some rest.  Bowl a few games, it always relaxes me.  ::Chuckles::

OPS_D`von says:
::smiles at her::  CSO: I don't think we will be using the accommodations much, but okay

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::she thinks that's what Modex has planned, being very nice::

CEO_K`Vas says:
@:: arrives at the bar with the MO and TO :: MO/TO: I believe it is customarily  for someone to buy the first round so I will.  Barkeep Necti for the three of us

CSO_Syrna says:
::raises her eyebrow at him as they step out:: OPS: The closet then?

CMO_Hunter says:
Wylie:: Has Xeno been in on this?

Host Brett says:
<Wylie> CMO: Well sir, those are possibilities.  According to xenobiology and cryptozoology, this baby is not just a baby animal...it is sentient, but how developed it has become at this early stage is unknowable, without tests...

MO_Wyn says:
@CEO: Thank you, Sir.

OPS_D`von says:
::smiles:: CSO: really doesn't matter, and sense we are right down the hall from each other, the closet doesn’t really matter either

TO_Re`Volos says:
@::raises his glass:: All: Q’apla

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@::gives her a tight smile:: Admiral: Aye ma'am. ::turns to Sykora and Ariel:: XO/CNS: Commander, Counsellor...thank you for accompanying me...you're free to do whatever it is you would normally do on a Starbase. ::nods pleasantly to all and leaves::

CMO_Hunter says:
Wylie:: Alright, write up a request and submit it to the Captain. I'm at a loss for what to do, I know next to nothing about animals

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::wonders if they can quit talking about bowling now and let her get to her fun and relaxation::

CEO_K`Vas says:
@MO/TO: QamvIS Hegh qaq law' torvIS yIn qaq puS

Host Brett says:
<Wylie> CMO: Aye sir.

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::lingers as the others leave::

CNS_Jakiel says:
@CO:  Thank you captain.

MO_Wyn says:
@::raises his glass as well, not understanding the words, but "feeling" the gist::

CSO_Syrna says:
::walks to the lift, presses the button:: OPS: Ah well I find the furniture in your quarters to be more comfortable....

CNS_Jakiel says:
@~~~CEO:  And what is my big Klingon up to?  Having fun without me?  I'm free now...~~~

CMO_Hunter says:
*CO*:: Captain, Are you free for a moment?

OPS_D`von says:
CSO: Okay mine it is then

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::walks up to the Admiral::  Admiral: I would like to schedule a time in the next few days to speak with you?

Host CO_K`Beth says:
@:walks back to the ship and nods to the duty sec guy as she enters the airlock:: *CMO*: Yes, Cmdr...we just finished up.  What can I do for you?

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::leaves the conference room wondering where to find K'Vas::

Host Brett says:
Action: Suddenly the CSO feels an intense wave of emotion wash over her.  Feelings of terror, hopelessness, loss, and the isolation overwhelm her brain.

CEO_K`Vas says:
@:: finishes his drink and hears his beloved :: ~~CNS: I am in the bar with the MO & TO please join us little one~~

MO_Wyn says:
@::takes his first sip and feels like a first timer all over again.  the liquid burns all the way down::

CMO_Hunter says:
*CO*:: Its about a patient of ours I need to speak with you in sickbay::

Host Brett says:
Action: OPS, through his link with her, feels these emotions as well, but to a lesser degree.

CSO_Syrna says:
::enters the lift:: TL: Senior Officers.... ::pauses, looks at D'von, confused::

MO_Wyn says:
@CEO/TO: Now that's a real drink.  ::tries to stop his eyes from watering::

Host Brett says:
Action: The CNS also feels them, and through her, the CEO as well.  Both feel them as minor, but definitely noticeable.

Host CO_K`Beth says:
::changes her course and heads to sickbay:: *CMO*: I'm on the way, doctor.

CSO_Syrna says:
::has a visible emotional reaction, despair and loneliness wash over her face:: OPS: hold me. ::sounds desperate::

TO_Re`Volos says:
@::grins:: CEO/MO: I think I'm going to enjoy shoreleave

CEO_K`Vas says:
@~~CNS: Little one do you feel something strange~~

TO_Re`Volos says:
@::takes a large swallow of his drink::

Host Brett says:
@<Kiel> XO: Of course Commander.

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::nods and takes her leave::  Admiral: Good day then. ::turns and leaves::

Host CO_K`Beth says:
::enters into sickbay and looks for Owyn:: CMO: What is it Doctor?  Has something gone wrong?

OPS_D`von says:
::looks at her, very confused and looks at her, also feels weird emotions wash over him, he places his arms around her:: CSO: Are you okay? ::tries to decide what emotions are his, and which ones aren’t. Assumes they are hers but isn't sure::

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::stops the first to person to find directions to the bar and heads that way at an eager pace, but slows as she feels strange emanations of fear and loneliness, lost hope.  Enters the bar shortly and spots K'Vas with a very worried look on her face.  Comes up from behind and hugs him in surprise::  CEO: Yes, I do...do you feel it, too?

CMO_Hunter says:
CO:: The baby hasn't eaten in 36-48 hours and is ignoring our surrogate, both Xeno and Crypto are on it, but I admit I'm at a loss for what to do

CSO_Syrna says:
OPS: The baby... ::pleading eyes:: The dragon... he needs me... I hear him calling out to me.... ::wants to weep::

OPS_D`von says:
::rubs her back as he holds her:: CSO: You wish to check on him?

CEO_K`Vas says:
@CNS: Yes.  :: looks into her eyes :: What does it mean?

Host CO_K`Beth says:
::curses quietly:: CMO: Let's go take a look at it.

CSO_Syrna says:
OPS: Yes! ::sobs:: But we have our orders!

CSO_Syrna says:
::holds him tightly::

CMO_Hunter says:
CO: of course, but I'm afraid if we don't get her to her home...she may die

CNS_Jakiel says:
@::looks up at him, very puzzled and concerned::  CEO:  I don't know...I don't know where it's coming from.  We better talk to the captain.

OPS_D`von says:
CSO: I didn't ask if you wanted to follow orders, I asked if you wanted to check on him

CSO_Syrna says:
OPS: I... yes... but...

OPS_D`von says:
TL: Holodeck

TO_Re`Volos says:
@::confused:: CEO/CNS: Feel what? What are you talking about?

XO_Tarrez-Hunter says:
@::makes her way back to the ship::

CEO_K`Vas says:
@*CO*: Captain is there a problem I should be aware of?

CMO_Hunter says:
CO:: After you ma'am.

Host Brett says:
Action: In the holodeck, unseen by anyone but the watchful eye of the monitor, the baby dragon cries out pitifully and hides behind a large stalagmite from the "monster" which approaches it.  The "mother dragon, responding to the maternal programming, tries to get closer to it, to comfort it, but it becomes apparent that the baby is afraid of the mother.  It continually scampers away from the surrogate, crying out in terror.
