OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
:: walking down the hall with Gopher in tow ::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::getting something to eat from the replicator::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
CEO: What would happen if I tried to make a run for it?

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::scratches his antenna::

Lorehani says:
::hears her husband and glares at him.::

CEO Ens Silek says:
::blinks:: XO: I would not recommend it... as I believe your spouse would stop you faster than the authorities.

CO Capt Wuer says:
::walks over towards CIV:: CIV: Thanks for dealing with things for me Commander.

Lorehani says:
::Grins at Silek.::  CEO:  Smart man.

CSO Ens Amuz says:
:: is sitting in the corner, watching her new crewmembers ::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::glances at the Andorian::

CTO Ens Koval says:
:: is in his quarters, cleaning an old 20th century gas-powered automatic rifle ::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
CEO: I don’t know....could be worth it

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
CO: You are welcome. I just hope it was enough.

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
:: enters the room :: Gopher : Have a seat Lieutenant.

Prosecutor Smith says:
:: re enters the room and takes a moment to look over his notes ::

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
::heads for the hearing room::

CTO Ens Koval says:
@:: presses a few buttons on his console and brings up a live video feed from the courtroom ::

Prosecutor Smith says:
:: sends word to the Tal-War crew to return to the hearing room ::

CO Capt Wuer says:
CIV: I guess all we do now is wait.  Any ideas what you'll be planning to do after all this?

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
CO: A sonic shower, I hope.

Lorehani says:
::Receives word.::  XO/CEO:  Looks like we are on again.  ::Takes Thomas' hand.:: Let's hope it's good news.

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
Lore: Aye

Lorehani says:
::Waits for the assistant to call them into the room.::

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
::looks around to see if the rest of the crew is at the hearing room yet::

CO Capt Wuer says:
CIV: I meant more long term ::laughs:: but I guess hat works.  ::receives the comm.:: seems they want us back

CEO Ens Silek says:
::follows the group::

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::nods with a smile and heads in::

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
::walks over to Sharra::

Lorehani says:
XO/CEO:  Will let's go in.

Prosecutor Smith says:
:: shifts in his chair as the doomed enter ::

CEO Ens Silek says:
::enters::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::goes and sits in the seat of the innocent::

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
OPS: How do you think it's going?

CO Capt Wuer says:
::follows the CIV in::

CSO Ens Amuz says:
Self: I wonder why I am even here ::follows the group in and sits at the back::

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
FCO:  Not sure.  :: shrugs ::

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
CO: This is frustrating. There is a systematic floccinaucinihilipilification in these aspects of existence that angers me.

Prosecutor Smith says:
:: taps his hand on the desk :: All: Is everyone present?

CO Capt Wuer says:
CIV: If I even knew what you just said I'm sure I may agree.....

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
:: nods and taps Gopher on the shoulder to stand ::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
Lore: ::whispers:: That's a rather Zen question

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::raises an eyebrow:: CO: That's what I usually do.

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
::takes a seat behind OPS::

Lorehani says:
XO:  Shhhhhhh, I don't want my baby daddy sitting in New Zealand or worse.

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
Lore: Your what.....???

Lorehani says:
::Grins and winks at him::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::open mouthed and staring::

CO Capt Wuer says:
::sits next to the CIV:: CIV: Well I hope for my sake it isn't contagious.

Lorehani says:
XO:  Close your mouth dear and let's listen to the nice prosecutor.

CO Capt Wuer says:
::waits for the prosecutor to speak::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::shuts his mouth abruptly::

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::smiles:: CO: Well, I never thought I'd say this - let's see what the prosecutor has to say.

Prosecutor Smith says:
XO: Commander Quchant, please stand.

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::stands, slowly still staring at his wife and not really paying attention::

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
::sits and listens::

Lorehani says:
::Stands with Thomas;:

CEO Ens Silek says:
::stands::

CSO Ens Amuz says:
::listens::

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::listening::

Prosecutor Smith says:
XO: Commander, in view of the circumstances of this rather unusual affair, your actions although suspect, were a reaction of a chain of events that were unavoidable....

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::sat::

CO Capt Wuer says:
::drums his hand on the desk::

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
CO: Beethoven’s 5th?

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::listens::

CO Capt Wuer says:
::changes the rhythm:: CIV: Well done.

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
CO: That one is easy - Funky Town.

Gopher says:
::Twitches::

Prosecutor Smith says:
XO: Due to the condition of your Captain and the actions of the Tal-War against the Rogers, you did the best you could under the circumstances.

CO Capt Wuer says:
::smiles::

Lorehani says:
::Hope cascades through her::

Prosecutor Smith says:
XO: Therefore, I have decided that you acted in the best interest of your ship at the time. Therefore, you are cleared of all charges.

Lorehani says:
All:  YES!  ::It kind of slips out.::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::hears the response but still staring ahead mind filled with what his wife just told him::

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
Gopher : Shhhhh.

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::slowly smiles::

CSO Ens Amuz says:
::smiles somewhat:: Self: Well at least I have an XO to report to...

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::plays with his antenna while he waits::

CTO Ens Koval says:
@Self: I hope the next one is more interesting.

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::turns and kisses his wife::

Lorehani says:
::Looks at her fellow Andorian and then is kissed by her hubby::

Prosecutor Smith says:
Gopher: Lieutenant, you on the other hand have shown that command is not something that you should consider.

Gopher says:
Smith:  That is for sure...Didn't want it in the first place.

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::looks up at Lorehani and thinks how the hell did a fine Andorian like that settle for a human like that?::

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
XO/Lore: Get a room guys.

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
FCO: We will...it'll have a crib and stuffed targ toys and stuff

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
CO: Did he just say 'stuff' twice in the same sentence?

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
XO: You're kidding me... really?

Lorehani says:
::Laughs at the FCO::

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
:: is relieved ::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
FCO: Yes....

Prosecutor Smith says:
Gopher: Your actions resulted in the death of a crew member and the loss of the Rogers. There are extenuating circumstances but it will be noted in your file that you are not to be considered for any command responsibilities for at least the next five years.

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
::offers his hand:: XO: Congrats Thomas. ::smiles:: Now where are my cigars?

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::patiently waits for the Prosecutor to get to the CO part::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::starts padding his pockets::

CTO Ens Koval says:
@Self: That guy is a Lieutenant? :: observes Gopher ::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
FCO: I'll replicate some!

Gopher says:
::Tugs on Sharra's arm::  OPS:  What does that mean?

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
Gopher:  It means that you won't be left in charge of garbage for the next 5 years.

Gopher says:
OPS:  Oh.....but I can still do Ops stuff right?

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
Self: Could he really do OPS stuff in the first place?

Prosecutor Smith says:
CO: Captain Wuer.

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
:: sighs and pinches the bridge of her nose :: Gopher : Yes, but, under strict supervision.

Gopher says:
::Grins::  OPS:  Your supervision?

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::stands alongside Wuer::

CO Capt Wuer says:
::stands up to Attention, flattening his uniform with his hand::

Prosecutor Smith says:
CO: Captain, your situation is more complicated. I am disturbed about your physical and more importantly your mental state.

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
:stands and pays attention to the proceedings and grasps his wife's hand::

CEO Ens Silek says:
FCO: Cigars ?  Is this a human tradition to reduce the population when a new birth occur?

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
:: looks at Gopher and furrows her brows ::  Gopher : Well, seeing as how I am the head of the department, yes, but not necessarily directly.

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
CEO: Nahh... just to pass them out... half of them never get smoked anyway.

Gopher says:
OPS:  How about dinner tonight so I can thank you for defending me so diligently?

Prosecutor Smith says:
CO: Please tell me about your mental state as it stands at this moment.

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
Gopher: Excuse me?

Gopher says:
::Just looks at her gooey eyed::

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
Self: Didn’t we cover all that?

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
Gopher : I don't think that would be a good idea Lt.

CSO Ens Amuz says:
::sits up straighter and pays attention::

Prosecutor Smith says:
:: looks over at Gopher and glares :: Gopher: This is not a social event. Keep your personal life outside this room.

CO Capt Wuer says:
Smith: With the return of all but one of my hosts, I'm more stable.  I'm still receiving routine check-ups...

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
::turns to face Sharra and sees Gopher looking at her all doe eyed::

Gopher says:
::Disappointment evident on his face.::

Gopher says:
::Looks at the floor like at child.::  Smith:  Yes Sir.

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::watches intently imagining 'Let him freee... let him FREEEEEEEEE'::

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
::smiles::

Prosecutor Smith says:
CO: Do you feel capable of command in your present state?

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
:: whispers ::  Gopher : Perhaps we can organize a little celebration for everyone later.

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
Self: Yes, ask a raging lunatic if he's ok to rule a ship... what do you think he's going to say?

Gopher says:
::Still looking at the floor he nods::

CEO Ens Silek says:
::wonders if an insane person would recognize if he is sane or not::

CO Capt Wuer says:
Smith: That is Starfleet Medicals decision and not mine. Of course any ruling made hear would also effect that.

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
Self: Why all the song and dance routine? Why doesn't he just tell us his decision already?

Prosecutor Smith says:
CO: I agree that Starfleet Medical is the final authority on all things medical, however, I have the final say on your abilities to command a starship.

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
::Wonders how much longer this is going to go on for::

CO Capt Wuer says:
Smith: I already stated that as CO of the Tal-War I except full responsibility of any actions that occurred, you want blood, take mine.

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
Self: Well actually that's your job Mr. Prosecutor Man... that's what we're here for... for you to tell us if he can continue commanding the FRICKIN SHIP.

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
:: hates to see Gopher looking so dejected and awkwardly pats him on the back ::

Lorehani says:
::Sees Idrani's antenna twitching...::  CIV:  Calm down my friend.  You blue skins is turning fuchsia...::

Prosecutor Smith says:
CO: Unfortunately for you, I will take you at your word.

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::blinks::

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
:: looks over at the CO in concern ::

CO Capt Wuer says:
Smith: Prosecutor I do not fear, not when you've lived as long as !.

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
Lorehani: I guess it's my turn.

CSO Ens Amuz says:
::plays with her fingers, seeing how fast she can touch her thumb with each of her fingers::

Prosecutor Smith says:
CO: As per Starfleet regulations, I am ordering you to be transferred to Starfleet Medical headquarters for a period of not less than six months, for full evaluation and medical treatment. After that period of time, we will revisit your case.

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
Lorehani: oh...my....

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
Aloud: WHAT!? Sorry.

Lorehani says:
::Jaw drops::

CSO Ens Amuz says:
Self: Wow...

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
:: attempts to form a protest ::

CO Capt Wuer says:
Smith: Very well......

CTO Ens Koval says:
@:: almost drops his coffee :: Self: THIS is interesting.

Prosecutor Smith says:
XO: Commander Quchant, you are hereby acting Captain of the Tal-War effective immediately. Good luck.

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
::blinks::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::turns and looks at Captain Wuer, with an expression of regret that this is not the way he wanted to assume command::

Prosecutor Smith says:
All: This hearing is concluded.

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
CO: I'm sorry.

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
::thinks "Finally" and walks round the chairs to Sharra::

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
CO:  Captain...I...I'm sorry sir.  :: looks down ::

CO Capt Wuer says:
CIV: Its not a problem, many of my recent actions were poor, whether or not I was ill.

CO Capt Wuer says:
::walks over to the XO and outs out his hand::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
::shakes the hand of Captain Wuer::

CTO Ens Koval says:
@:: assembles his rifle and places it on the wall, amongst other weapons of all types and sizes::

Gopher says:
::Thinks:  Oh no!!  The XO Hates me!::

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::watches the CO walk away::

CSO Ens Amuz says:
::rises from her chair and takes a step closer to the group::

CO Capt Wuer says:
::walks towards the prosecutor:: Smith: I presume arrangements have been made?

Prosecutor Smith says:
:: looks at Gopher and thinks he should have reassigned him to Rura Penthe for six months ::

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
OPS: I don't think any of us expected that.

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::walks up to the Prosecutor and extends a hand::

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
FCO:  No, not at all.  I...I feel...I can't explain it.  :: looks like she is about to cry ::

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
::wraps his arm round Sharra's shoulders and holds her close::

Prosecutor Smith says:
CO: Yes, but you have some time before you leave.

Lorehani says:
XO:  Thomas what does this mean?  Why is the Capt being punished and not Gopher?

CSO Ens Amuz says:
::stands next to the OPS and FCO:: Aloud: That was unexpected, was he really that...um... problematic?

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::after shaking hands with Smith, he moves over to the FCO and OPS:: FCO/OPS: I don't know everyone here very well, but it seems to me that a farewell party would be in order.

CO Capt Wuer says:
Smith: Well you trust that I'm not going to hijack the Tal-War then? ::smiles::

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
Lore: Gopher got punished...just not as much as I'd have hoped. However, the Captain is the ultimate responsibility carrier of a ship

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
CIV: Farewell? He's only going to be gone for 6 months.

Lorehani says:
XO:  Then don't you go doing anything foolish.

Prosecutor Smith says:
:: points to two guards at the doorway :: CO: Captain, these gentlemen will make sure you don't.

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
FCO: Yes, aren't you going to miss him? Say goodbye?

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
CSO:  No, he isn't.

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
Lorehani: no danger of that.....

XO Cmdr Quchant says:
Lorehani: not now anyway...::glances down at her belly::

Lorehani says:
::Leans into him::

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
CIV:  Thalev, I don't know that that is such a good idea.

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
CIV: He's going for a well deserved and long overdue rest as far as I'm concerned... the last thing he needs is to get the feeling we don't want him back.

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
OPS/FCO: Okay, was just making a suggestion. I'll leave you two alone. ::steps aside::

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
FCO:  I want him back.

CSO Ens Amuz says:
::approaches the CO and clears her throat:: CO: Captain, I know I didn't serve with you for more than a few days but I look forward to you returning to the ship in 6 months, sir...

FCO Cmdr Foster says:
OPS: Tobius?

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
CIV:  That isn't necessary Thalev.

CIV Cmdr Idrani says:
::smiles:: OPS: Oh no, that's okay. You look upset, and that would be his department.

OPS Cmdr Telgar says:
FCO:  Yes.  I don't want him to be gone from the Tal-War.

Prosecutor Smith says:
:: motions the guards over :: CO: I'm sorry Captain, but we must protect your crew and the Tal-War. Take time and say your goodbyes.
