Host Tim says:
The U.S.S. Dublin arrived at the UP yard 18 hours ago and the crew was given R & R.  The Dublin is schedule for a complete maintenance/upgrade rotation in the space dock.

Host Tim says:
The Dublin crew has temporarily been quartered in the Visiting Crew center at the UP yard facilities on Mars.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: looks down at her bags and makes sure that they are closed securely before handing them to the space dock porter :: CO: I can't wait to see the children and mom and dad Mackie. Aren't you excited?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::on UP, just finished packing up in order to visit his home world::  FCO:  I am dying here, sweetie.  You know....  ::grins::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
::runs out to meet with Mister Kell before he flees away:: CEO: Would like to drink something? I'll be paying.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  I am ready!  ::puts his pips into the black velvet box and keeps it into his pack::

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: Ensign you do have a very good suggestion, yes I would enjoy a drink

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: I wonder if the children were a problem for your parents. I haven't heard a word from them.

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::walking through the crowds towards the suite her father has secured carrying one bag over a shoulder and another behind her::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Well, let's go somewhere nice around. I am really looking after a very nice and real tequila. If you know what I mean?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::grimaces, then grins::  FCO:  I don't think so.  My parents probably want them back.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: By the way, don't forget that we have a new member of the crew reporting in today.

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: Very well  :: motions with his arm :: After you, I never argue with the person paying for the drinks

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  Ahh, thanks for reminding me.  I'll have him meeting with us at the space dock.  ::grabs his pack::  FCO:  Done, dear.  How about you?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: grins :: CO: All set. Let's go.

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: My pleasure:: walks through the door::

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
:: Follows the CSO ::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::opens the quarter's door::  FCO:  You first, pretty lady.  ::bows slightly and motions to her::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
*XO*:  Commander Jakiel, this is Captain MacLeod.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: giggles and walks out the door :: CO: Oh so gallant you are Captain.

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::hits her badge again::  *CO*:  Go ahead sir.

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::his head jerks upward as the comm chimes in on his combadge:: Self: Arie.....no, Tessa.... ::slowly raises his hand to tap the badge::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
::look for some directions:: CEO: I believe this is a good place. ::points in the "map" to Kell::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::smiles at his wife::  *XO*:  I'll have the new Specialist meeting me at the space dock in a few moments, before my departure.  Please meet us there.

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Let's go there?

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
*CO*:  Yes sir.  And I believe you mean Lieutenant So'Quon?

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: As long as the drinks are not too diluted and the females too unattractive then by all means

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
*XO*:  Aye, thank you...  I have forgotten his name...  actually, would you please set the meeting with him for me?

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::trying to find the courage to respond:: *XO*: This...this is So'Quon. I receive you..... ::voice trails off, as if stunned almost::

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
*CO*:  I'm trying to do that just now.  I'll see you later.  ::hears the badge chirp again and retaps it::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Then follow me. I am really interested in meet some girls today. Not uniformed girls.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::slowly walks down by the corridors::  FCO:  Do you think your mother will prepare that delicious dish just like the last time we've been there?

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::laughs softly::  *XO*:  So'Quon?  You don't have to act so surprised!  Surely you knew I would be meeting you?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: walks along with her husband :: CO: You mean the beef stew?

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
:: sees that the bar is not a Starfleet officer's club and wonders if the CSO knows what he is getting himself into walking around with a Cardassian :: CSO: Then I suggest we proceed with haste then

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::walks into the Jakiel suite and sets her bags down, finds a note about Rhianna::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::hears the comm being cut and keeps walking::  FCO:  Aye!  Hmm...  only the memory almost makes me drool... of course I am starving, it helps too.  ::giggles::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
::walking in the Bar:: CEO: What do you prefer? Take a table? The bar?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: smiles :: CO: I think you can count on it dear. I'll try and get and her to give us the recipe this time. Then you can make it anytime.

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::rubs a hand back and forth across his uniform collar nervously:: *XO*: I....I know. It's just been so long. I... ::sighs:: I'm so sorry. I can barely maintain my composure.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: ENSIGN CLOONEY HAS ALREADY LEFT THE VISITOR'S CENTER TO TRY TO CONTACT HER BROTHERS.  LIEUTENENT HARKER CAUGHT A SHUTTLE AND IS ALREADY ENROUTE TO EARTH

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: A table...close to the door.  Old habits are hard to break

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
*SO*:  Quon, relax.  I'm not in uniform and this is '

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
R' and 'R'

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::smiles:: FCO:  That would be great.

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
*SO*:  I'll meet you at the space dock, okay? I can't wait to see you again!

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Let's get the table then. ::walks to the table next the door::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: You know, we haven't even seen the children take their first steps yet. We missed so much with them gone.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  Just hope your mother isn't feeding them with it though.  ::holds a laugh::

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::thinks he sees the one called MacLeod and the FCO just ahead and goes towards them:: *XO*: I'm almost there myself. The Captain is the dark haired one, right?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: whacks Mackie's arm :: CO: Hey, I grew up on it and I didn't turn out so bad did I?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  Aye...  ::sighs::  Oh, come on, Cas... I'm just excited to see my children again, don't ruin that, please.  ::pokes her and smiles::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
::calls for the waitress:: CEO: What will you want?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  Not at all!

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
*SO*: Yes, and the funny accent.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::arrives at the space dock, immediately checks the shuttle schedule::

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: I doubt they serve Kanar, so whiskey single malt.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: Ok so where is this new Civilian specialist? :: looks around ::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Let's try.

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::starts looking about for Tessa, but returns his focus to his superior officers just ahead and controls his walk as he gets closer::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  We are on schedule...  ::drops his pack::  FCO:  Aye... seems to me he is Kressari.

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::heads back out the door for the space dock smiling::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: points :: CO: I think I see him over there heading this way.

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
Waitress: I want a tequila. Bring him a single malt please.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::turns and sees the Kressari::  FCO:  Right.

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
*XO*: Thank you, Tessa. I'm so glad you are here. ::walks up to the captain and bows low:: CO/FCO: Captain and Commander MacLeod. Greetings. I am Lieutenant junior grade So'Quon, reporting for duty as ordered.

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
<Waitress> CSO: Right away sir.

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
:;takes a short shuttle to the dock::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: So, for how long are you with Dublin?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: nods and smiles :: CIV: Welcome to the Dublin Lieutenant.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::nods as well::  CIV:  Welcome, Lieutenant.  ::extends hand::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
<Waitress> ::puts the drinks on the table::

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::nods his head to them both and looks at the hand, almost forgetting what it was for even after years growing up on Earth, then accepts it for a shake:: CO/FCO: I thank you, sirs.

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: Approximately 6 earth months

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
::drinks in a one shoot his spice tequila:: CEO: You should try this.

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::disembarks and walks quickly back through the crowds, very eager to see her friend again::

Host bartender says:
::glares at the Cardie in his bar::

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: No, thank you.  I have tried that potable and found it most unpleasant

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: nudges Mackie :: CO: Hurry please, I don't want to miss our ride.

Host bartender says:
::snorts and wipes down the bar while watching the new customers from the corner of his eye::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
CIV:  So'Quon, right?

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::enters the space dock area and looks around, standing on tiptoe::  Self:  He should be easy to spot...

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
CO: Yes, captain. Quon of Souvaiel is the completed translation.

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
:: sees the bartender keeping a watch on them :: CSO: It would appear we have an admirer .   ::Holds up his drink to the bartender and smiles a smarmy grin ::

Host bartender says:
::wipes his ridged nose and turns to dust the pictures of Bajor behind the bar::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Well, Dublin is now on repairs. What do you think about some improvement? Bartender: Hey, can you send me another shot and a soda?

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Don't worry.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
CIV:  I see...  Well, I apologize I cannot speak any further, we have a transport to catch.  Commander Jakiel is arriving ::motions to the XO who's coming towards them::  and will speak to you accordingly.

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: Oh I rarely worry, but in case you haven't noticed our barkeep is Bajoran

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
CIV:  I will see you back on the Dublin in a few days.

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
:: takes another drink of whiskey::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CIV: We'll talk soon Lieutenant. :: smiles and walks towards the shuttle bay ::

Host bartender says:
::turns to look at Wildstar, then nods and pours the shot of scotch;  the waitress picks it up and takes it to Wildstar::

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::nods with the barest hint of a smile:: CO: I understand, captain. Please enjoy your shore leave. FCO: I look forward to it, ma'am. Good day to you both.

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::has spotted the Kressari and the captain and Cassie and makes her way over::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Ooops. That could mean trouble. But they probably already know that we are Starfleet officers. ::looking calm to Mister Kell::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::begins walking towards the shuttle bay, waves to the CIV and to the XO::  XO/CIV:  Enjoy the shore leave yourselves.

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
Waitress: Thanks.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: calls back to Tessa :: XO: Tessa, take some time off......see you in a few days. :: waves ::

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::waves to the captain and his wife, as she nears the science officer:: Civ:  Quon!

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::follows the CO's glance and sees Tessa coming up from behind, not knowing whether to smile, or run up to her, or even run away::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::slightly pulls the FCO::  FCO:  We're late, come. ::smiles::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Well, I was thinking that I might help a little bit with the warp engines efficiency.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: I'm coming, I'm coming.

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::pulls him into an embrace and  then releases him smiling widely:: Civ:  It's so good to see you again!

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
:: looks up at the waitress :: Waitress :  Excuse me dear girl but could I get another single malt whiskey.  And please make sure the glass is clean this time, the last one tasted like Jumjum tea.  I never could stomach that hideous beverage.  :: grins ::

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
:: looks back at the CSO :: CSO: Really, who might we improve the warp drive do tell me

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::gapes at Tessa, his lips moving as if trying to speak, but no words come forth::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Well, I have some ideas. Some things that I would like to put in practice.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::enters the transport::  FCO:  Aahh.. only a few hours before seeing our kids...

Host bartender says:
::Refuses to be baited by the Cardie and waits for the waitress to actually order the drink before moving::

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
:: finishes the drink he has ::  CSO: What things would that be ensign

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: looks for their seats :: CO: I know, and Nanny Grace too.

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
::distracted himself by looking to the very beautiful brunet woman that just got in to the bar::

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::still holding his hands, but standing back to get a good look at him::  CIV:  You look as good as ever.  C'mon, I know you can speak.  ::laughs softly again::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Sorry.

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
::smiles::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::the smile that was gleaming on Mackie's face suddenly disappears::  FCO:  Oh... right... Nanny Grace...

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: Never apologize for gazing at a pretty lady

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Our energy is because of the matter antimatter fusion. That comes from the dilithium crystals, right?

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::drops his look, and sighs looking down, getting himself focused:: XO: I....y-you haven't changed much yourself. ::feels anxiety from the strange "twin" effect, seeing Ariel, but knowing it isn't her at all::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::finds their seats and gives some room to his wife::  FCO:  Here, sweetie.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: sits down and looks over at the others in the shuttle :: CO: Looks like a lot of people had the same idea to go to Earth.

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: Correct.  Most ships use dilithium in this quadrant, except for the Romulans

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::smiles::  FCO:  Who wouldn't?  ::sits and puts his hand onto hers::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Imagine if we can map more perfectly where the fusion will happen.

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
CIV:  Kind of strange seeing someone you know so well, but don't isn't it?  Well, Quon, you'll get over it pretty quickly.  ::says after 'picking up' on his anxiety::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: smiles back ::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: We calculate better where the energy will "happens" and take an advantage from there.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@::leans backwards on the uncomfortable chair::  FCO:  That's it.  Why aren't we moving yet?

Host Tim says:
ACTION: THE SHUTTLE FOR EARTH LIFTS OFF WITH THE MACLEODS

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: The crystals are used to harness the power, actually the ship stores matter and anti matter in containment units.  The two are introduced through injectors in the warp core causing a controlled reaction

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: With more energy, more power. ::saying too fast::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@ :: looks out the window :: CO: So impatient.....here we go.

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::feels a very faint crawling sensation in the back of his head, but hardly gives it any thought being so happy to see Tessa after so long:: XO: Your father sends his greetings to you, Tessa. He wanted me to let you know that in person.

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
CIV: Would you like to go somewhere where we can talk and you can get me update?  I already received several messages from my father and have spoken to Ariel.  ::her warm smile remains and again she 'picks up' the image from Quon's mind of her father.  She closes her eyes a moment while she savors that::  Thank you for bringing that.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@:: snuggles into her husband's shoulder :: CO: Boy do we need this vacation.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@::looks into her eyes and whispers::  FCO:  You could go there and fly this turtle... so we can get there faster.  ::giggles::

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: The weak points are the warp core magnetic bottle that contains the reaction and the EPS conduits used to channel the energy away from the reactor

Host bartender says:
::moves to the end of the bar and uses a communicator::

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::nods to Tessa:: XO: This city overwhelms me. I know of so few decent places here. Perhaps we can just walk together for now?

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Ok. But maybe we can distribute the warp energy better.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@ CO: No flying for me this time. I'm on vacation with my handsome husband.

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
:: notices the bartender :: CSO: I think it would be wise to leave.  Unless the bartender is talking into his hand, he is inviting a few friends over to visit the Cardassian

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
CIV:  Sure...I think I know a quiet spot.  ::takes Quon's arm to guide him in a certain direction::  So tell me about your visit with my father....and about Ariel...was she doing well?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@::slightly taps her thigh, then looks out the window::  FCO:  Alright...  ::smiles and kisses her::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
::looks at the bartender:: CEO: Hmmm. Maybe that's a good idea. Imagine a first day with problems.

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
:: gets up to leave :: CSO: Now you see why I chose to sit near the door

Host Tim says:
ACTION: FOUR LARGE BAJORANS ENTER THE BAR STOP, LOOK AT KELL AND WILDSTAR THEN GO TO THE FAR END OF THE BAR

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::hardly knows where to start with Tessa's welcome presence next to him:: XO: Ariel is fine so far as I understand it. She is well protected under the aegis of her husband K'Vas.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@:: settles back to relax a bit :: CO: You know, I bet we're not even going to recognize the children now. They must have grown a lot since we've been gone.

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
:: grabs the CSO by the arm :: CSO: Time to leave Ensign, those were the welcome the Cardassian committee.

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
::puts his arms on to Mister Kell shoulder:: CEO: Let's get out, but no that fast. I am not afraid of them They should be afraid of us.

Host bartender says:
::looks up and nods to the Bajorans.  Pours each of them a drink::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@::observes as the shuttle leaves the docks into open space::  FCO:  I am worried about that.  Not recognizing our children.  ::serious::

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
CIV:  Yes, that is surely true.  I just wish I could have helped her recuperate, though.  I saw her medical records....and they scared me.  But she's backed off on duties now.  That big Klingon will take good care of her.  Good thing he's tougher than her.  ::smiles wryly::

Host Tim says:
ACTION: AS THE SHUTTLE LEAVES MARS' LOWER ORBIT THE DUBLIN IS JUST TAKEN INTO THE SPACE REPAIR FACILITY

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@CO: Oh it won't be that bad dear. I'm sure they'll remember us. Nanny has seen to that.....I hope.

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: Fear is not the point.  But the captain would be most upset with me if I got you killed on your first leave from the Dublin

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@FCO:  I hope so...  ::spots the Dublin at distance::  FCO:  Look, Cas!  ::points::

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::points up ahead::  CIV:  The place I mentioned is just up there through the glass doors.

Host bartender says:
::with the other four Bajorans all five watch the Cardassian::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: I won't be killed. ::looking at the Bajoran with a little angry::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@::watches the Dublin entering the repair facility::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@ :: glances out the window :: CO: She sure is beautiful isn't she Mackie?

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::halts his walk and looks deeply at Tessa's eyes:: XO: I don't know if she told you, but....extraordinary things have happened to me recently. Things I hardly understand.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: THE FIVE BAJORANS RISE THEIR GLASSES IN "TOAST" TO THE CARDASSIAN

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: I just wanted a nice bar and when the girl comes, these gorillas make us leave.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@::can't help but open a smile::  FCO:  Aye!  But not quite... ::rubs her cheek::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Now what?:: with a question mark face::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@:: smiles and wrinkles her nose :: CO: You never stop do you?

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
:: with a look of pity on his face :: CSO: A poor pathetic people aren't they? :: points towards the bartender and friends :: Five of them and they still are afraid of one Cardassian.

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::returns his gaze, growing serious and nods::  CIV:  Yes, she did mention part of what occurred.  ::looks intently into his eyes::  Quon, are you doing alright?  I want you to tell me.  And I would like to hear about what happened.

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Let's stay then. I want to talk with that girl.

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: Well it just so happens I know of a bar just down the street that is run by an Andorian...who owes me a favor or two.  Shall we?

Host Tim says:
ACTION: THE BARTENDER AND FOUR OTHER BAJORANS APPROACH KELL'S TABLE

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Ok. But you pay this time.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@FCO:  I can't...  fortunately.

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Incoming.

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
CSO: It appears our departure will be delayed

Host bartender says:
CEO: You two are Star Fleet right?

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::feels the crawling sensation again, this time more insistently:: XO: A past that occurred long before I was born is tying itself into my present life. I've learned recently that I am the heir to an old legacy....a sort of prophetic vision carried through my bloodline for generations. ::sighs:: Let's go sit down, shall we?

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
::moves between Kell and the Bajorans::

Host bartender says:
::Looks surprised at Wildstar's action::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
Bartender: Yes we are.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@ :: leans down and reaches into her small bag and pulls out the last holo photo of the babies::

Bartender : Yes we are, why are you need of assistance :: grins ::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@CO: Weren't they just the most precious things....... :: hands him the photo ::

Host bartender says:
::steps around the CSO and places two bottles of prime blue ale on the table::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@FCO:  I'd like to visit my parents as well...  ::picks up the holo photos::  FCO:  Aren't they cute?  ::smiles::

Host bartender says:
::steps back:: CEO/CSO: Just a thank you for your service gentlemen.

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::'searches' his emotions as she did when she knew him at university and looks curiously at him::  CIV:  C'mon.   Let's go in here.  ::pushes through one of the glass doors and the sound of a fountain can be heard::  There's some benches by the water.

Host bartender says:
::each of the Bajorans again raise their glasses in toast::

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
Bartender : Why you are quite welcome, your generosity is overwhelming.

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
Bartender: No problem. ::looking at the strange situation::

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::follows the XO, wanting to hear more about her than discuss his own confusing experiences::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@CO: Think we have time to see everyone?

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
::takes one of the bottles and walks to girl::

Host bartender says:
::nods to Kell and the Bajorans walk back to the bar::

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
CEO: Follow me. She just came to meet with a friend. A very good looking one too.

XO_LtCmdr_Jakiel says:
::winds through a path, flowers and small trees at their sides until they come to a wooden bench and take a seat::  CIV:  Okay, now, if you'd like to tell me more?  I won't press you if you don't want to speak of it now...  ::having 'sensed' his reluctance::

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
:: takes the other bottle and follows the CSO ::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@::sighs::  FCO:  I don't know... do you think your parents would mind to invite my parents as well?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@FCO:  The entire family, united...  just the thought brings me... emotions.  ::smiles::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@CO: Great idea. I think the four of them need to get to know each other better. I'll be sure and ask mom to call them.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@FCO:  Good!  I want to speak to my father...  there are ages we don't have a nice talk.

CSO_Ens_Wildstar says:
::gives the look to girl:: Girl 1: Would mind if we sit with you. It's because we need a little help of you two. First we need to empty those bottles and then maybe we can dance? ::thinks - I should be drunk enough. I don't know how to dance::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@:: smiles :: CO: Perhaps we will get some private time too?

CIV_LtJG_So`Quon says:
::sits close to Tessa, feeling compelled to try something he saw in one of his dreams:: XO: Tessa, I.... ::silences himself and draws forth his pale azure blue crystal pendent from around his neck, placing in tightly in one of her hands, then lifts it between the two of them::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
@FCO:  What are you suggesting, Mrs. MacLeod? ::smiles::

CEO_Ltjg_Kell says:
Girl2: I on the other hand dance quite well.  But do need someone to help me drink this fine ale

Host bartender says:
::the Bajorans all give a loud and hearty laugh... then the four Bajorans disappear, leaving the bartender alone::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@CO: You can figure it out can't you Captain? :: nudges him ::
