Ens_Andrews says:
::enters the room and waves to LtJG Kimura, before seeing Ens. Rodos::

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::starts eating his breakfast::

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
::waves back and smiles at Andrews:: SELF: That guy she's with must be him.

Ens_Andrews says:
::notices Ens. Rodos and smiles as she goes to the replicator:: Replicator: A slice of spinich quiche and a raktajino, hot and black

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::hears Millicent's voice and looks up from his PADD, seeing her standing by the replicator::

Ens_Andrews says:
::recieves her food and joins Ens Rodos:: Rodos: Good morning.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::smiles:: Andrews: Good morning.

Ens_Andrews says:
::sits down:: Rodos: How did you manage to get up earlier than me, I was exhausted last night.

Ens_Andrews says:
::takes a bite of her quiche and a drink of her raktajino::

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Andrews: I probably went to bed before you did.

Ens_Andrews says:
Rodos: I magine that's true. I was here rather late last night.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Andrews: Meet anyone interesting?

Ens_Andrews says:
Rodos: Yes, I did. I met the CMO from the Geneva, she's a cook too.::motions to LtJG Kimura:: That's her over there.

Ens_Andrews says:
I also met the very first CO of the Sharikahr, Captain Fowler.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Andrews: Wow.. that's interesting.

Ens_Andrews says:
Rodos: She was very nice. I talked with her ad the CO from the Europa as well.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::smiles:: Andrews: Sounds like you had a busy evening.

Ens_Andrews says:
::smiles:: Rodos: It was fun. 

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::looks over at LtJG Kimura:: Andrews: Maybe we should invite your friend over here.

Ens_Andrews says:
Rodos: I was just about too.

Ens_Andrews says:
::looks in LtJG Kimura's direction:: Kimura: Hi. Would you like to join us?

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
::smiles:: Andrews: Sure. ::takes her coffee and walks over to their table::

Ens_Andrews says:
Kimura: How was your seminar last night?

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::finishes his breakfast and sips his tea::

Ens_Andrews says:
::takes another bite of her quiche and sips her raktajino::

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
Andrews: You know, they locked to doors when I got there, so I just went home. ::smiles::

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
::turns to Rodos:: Rodos: Dr. Kazue Kimura, Millicent and I were just talking about you last night. ::grins and extends her hand::

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::smiles and shakes her hand:: Kimura: Ensign Rodos Falor.. talking about good things, I hope.

Ens_Andrews says:
::smiles::smiles obviously joking:: Rodos: Nope, I was telling

Ens_Andrews says:
::continues:: your darkest secrets, but she still wished to meet you.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::makes a mock disappointment face at Millicent::

Ens_Andrews says:
::grins::

Ens_Andrews says:
::finishes her quiche and sips her raktajino::

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
::focuses her bionic eyes and looks him up and down:: Rodos: So which name do you go by? I always get confused with Bajoran names...

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Kimura: Most Bajorans are offended if people call them by their given name.. usually they only allow their close friends to do so. But I'm not much a believer in Bajoran customs, so everyone just calls me Falor.

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
Rodos: So that's your... first name...?

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Kimura: It comes last, but its my given name.. Rodos comes first, and is my family name.

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
Rodos: Oh, okay okay... ::smiles:: In Japan, my name would be inverted also.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Kimura: Much like the people, Bajoran names are backwards and confusing ::smiles::

Ens_Andrews says:
::frowns at Ens. Rodos, knowing this is not the time or place to say that::

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::ironically sips his Bajoran Deka tea::

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
Rodos: All cultures have their pros and cons. ::sips her coffee::

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Kimura: I suppose they do.

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
Rodos: So you're Chief Engineer!

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::grins:: Kimura: Yep.. and loving it too.

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
Rodos: Engineers are really essential and I could never understand how they basically make something out of nothing.

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
Rodos: Have you studied anywhere other than Starfleet Academy?

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Kimura: No.. I went to the Academy right out of high school and took as many Engineering-related courses I could.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Kimura: I was surprised to get a senior staff assignment right out of the academy, but it happened.

Ens_Andrews says:
Kimura: I studied at New York University before the Academy I have a doctorate from them

Captain_Suvok_Serok says:
:: walks into the cafeteria and clears her throat ::  The Operations Seminar will begin in 9.45 minutes in #Ship_Operations.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::stands up and looks at Serok:: Captain.. how long is the seminar, approximately?

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
Andrews: Really? That's interesting. I think I'd like to go back to school one day. I only spent 5 years at Starfleet Medical College. ::smiles:: Not like I failed out or anything. I had 4 years of prior medical experience.

Captain_Suvok_Serok says:
Falor:  It will be approximately 60 minutes.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::nods:: Serok: Thank you, ma'am. ::sits back down and finishes his tea::

Captain_Suvok_Serok says:
Falor:  It is a question and answer seminar.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Andrews/Kimura: I was thinking about attending that seminar.. but I'm due back on the ship in about an hour. I'm not sure if I'll have time.

Ens_Andrews says:
Kimura: I probably should have gone there first, I was so much older than the other cadets. I got a lot of weirs looks.

Captain_Suvok_Serok says:
Falor:  You may come and go as you please Ensign.

Ens_Andrews says:
Rodos: Why don't you. I was planning to attend one in a few minutes.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
All: In that case, perhaps I will..

Captain_Suvok_Serok says:
All:  If you'll excuse me, I must attend to my seminar.

Captain_Suvok_Serok says:
:: turns and leaves the cafeteria ::

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Andrews: Which seminar are you going to?

Ens_Andrews says:
One about research for counselors.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::smiles:: Andrews: Sounds like fun.. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Ens_Andrews says:
I hope so, I'm really looking forward to that Command one later this afternoon.

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
::nods:: Andrews: I think I might hit that one too.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Andrews: I hope I can make it.. one of the externship cadets we took on asked me to help him with a few things.

Ens_Andrews says:
Rodo: It's good that you're helping him.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::smiles:: Andrews: I had to.. he kinda reminds me of how I was when I did my externships. I know what its like.

MO_Ens_Casard says:
All: Hiya

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::enters the room and looks around::

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
Rodos/Andrews: Well, I think I'll be going to that OPS seminar.

Ens_Andrews says:
::smiles, well, I have to go, my seminar should be starting. I'll see you later. ::extends her hand::

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::looks at Millicent then at Kimura:: Andrews/Kimura: If you'll excuse me ladies..  I have to head back to the ship. I'll probably pop by the OPS seminar afterwards.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::nods a salute to Ensigns Falor and Andrews::

LtJG_Kazue_Kimura says:
Rodos: Take care! It was good to meet you.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::smiles:: Kimura: You too. ::kisses Millicent on the cheek:: Andrews: Have a good seminar.

Ens_Andrews says:
::returns the nodding salute as she gets up to exit::

MO_Ens_Casard says:
All: I may need someone to talk to

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::picks up his PADD and nods to LtJG Rome as he leaves::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::walks to the young Medical Officer:: MO: Afternoon Ensign.

MO_Ens_Casard says:
LtJG Rome: Hiya

Ens_Andrews says:
::exits the room::

MO_Ens_Casard says:
Rome: Good Afternoon

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::grabs a cup of earl gray from the Replicator and sits down with the Ensign::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::enters the cafeteria and goes to the bar::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::notices the attractive Lt.Jg heading for the bar::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Bartender: Icoberry juice please.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
MO: So what ship are you from Ensign ?

MO_Ens_Casard says:
Rome: USS Hercules

MO_Ens_Casard says:
All: GTG

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::grins:: MO: A strong name, well I hope you enjoy the conference. Take care.

SO_Lt_Solon says:
All: Hello

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::walks up to the bar and takes a seat next to the LtJG:: LtJG_Solaa: Hello.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::looks sideways at Rome and smiles:: Rome: Hi.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::smiles back::

SO_Lt_Solon says:
::Walks up to Rome::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::notices the SO:: SO: Ahh, Hello Again Lieutenant.

SO_Lt_Solon says:
Rome: Hello

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::sips her icoberry juice and scratches the spots on her head::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
LtJG_Solaa: So Lieutenant, what ship are you from ?

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::decides she better introduce herself:: Rome: I'm Rynia Solaa, Counselor on the USS Apache.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::smiles at her:: Solaa: Nice to meet you Rynia, my name's Jonathan Rome, Chief Engineer on the USS Cherokee.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Rome: Ooh... an Engineering guy... ::smirks::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Rome: I'm a bit of a number-cruncher myself. My first love was OPS.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Solaa: Yeah, a tech geek. I just love my engines. Never had the taste for any other position really.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Solaa: Though I did study some Medical Science, but just the basic.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Rome: Well, I figured that I'd have a much more important position on the ship if I was Counselor, and getting into people's heads is interesting.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Solaa: And you have some fresh gossip for the Department meetings. ::grins::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Rome: Indeed... ::smirks again::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Solaa: So what are you up to? Attended any seminars?

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Rome: Ah, I'm just being a bar rat today. ::grins::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::beams at her:: Solaa: I like that.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::looks at him sideways:: Rome: Oh?

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Solaa: Oh just, we share a hobby then.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Rome: Oh, no no... I don't really drink all that much... see? ::holds up her glass:: Icoberry juice.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::laughs::

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::enters the room and looks around::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Solaa: Yeah, well it's early. I'm just having a tea myself, the ale comes later. ::throws her a grin::

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::sees LtJG Rome and walks over to his table:: Rome: Mind if I join you?

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
::enters the room, sees Lt Rome and nods::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
All: Hey fellas' come and sit down.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::sits down:: Rome: How's it going?

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
::joins the table:: All: Hello everybody.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Falor: Oh it's going fine thank you, spent most night hunting glitches in the intermix ratio. So now it's caffein time.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Polo: Hi there.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Rome: Hiya.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::motions for Solaa: Ensigns: This is Lieutenant Solaa from the Apache.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::nods and extends a hand:: Ensign Rodos Falor, USS Sharikahr.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::smiles at the men, a bit flirty::

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::laughs:: Rome: I'm not sure how long I can stay.. I've got a cadet on externship that wants me to show him the ropes, so to speak.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: Hello Lt. Solaa, Ensign Polo, USS Triton:: smiles back::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Falor: Don't forget to let him scrub the plasma filters. ::laughs::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: But you can call me Riccardo.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: I'm Ryn.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Jonathan: Plasma filters, been there done that! 

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::sips her juice and scratches the spots on her neck::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::pats the Ensign on the shoulder:: Polo: We all have.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Ryn: Nice to meet you. ::offers his hand::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Jonathan: Well being a cadet was very fun, but there are things I would rather not do again. ::grins::

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Rome: I did a lot of externships at the academy, so I know how it feels

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Polo: Well, then don't visit my Engineering. I love putting young Ensigns to work.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
<Cdt_Thomas> *Rodos*: Ensign Rodos.. are you busy, sir?

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
*Cdt_Thomas*: No Cadet.. I'll meet you in Engineering. Rodos out.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::smiles at Falor::

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::sighs:: All: If you'll excuse me.. maybe we'll catch up later.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
ALL: I seem to be at a table full of Engineers. :;laughs::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Rome: You do that and i would cut power to the holodeck when you are having fun. ::grins wickedly::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Solaa: Ahh, you like it. Admit it.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::smiles:: Solaa: One less engineer now.. ::stands up and nods at everyone::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Polo: Threatening a superior officer? oohhh. ::grins::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: Almost engineer, I am an Ops Manager.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Rome: It brings back memories, indeed.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: I was an OPS manager also.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::smiles:: Polo: Now, I'm a shrink.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Rome: you know what they say, you gotta put some boundaries.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Solaa: It was nice meeting you.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::laughs and smiles at Polo::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Falor: You too. Enjoy your Cadet!

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Falor: Take it easy Falor! See you later.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
::smiles:: Solaa: I'll try.

Ens_Rodos_Falor says:
Rome: You too. ::turns around and leaves::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: Oh my that's a big jump Ryn, how is it coming? Falor: Have fun.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: Well, its certainly not without it's perks. My office is adjacent to my quarters, I get to parade around and act like I know what I'm doing, and being strikingly beautiful helps with diplomacy. ::grins::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: I'm joking about the last part. ::sips her drink::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Solaa: Yeah, you could have me hand over the Alpha Quadrant, Ryn. ::grins at her::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
::smiles at the joke:: Solaa: the counselor on my ship made the same jump. From Ops to CNS, seems common. ::thinks about how fun would be to mess with people minds::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Rome: My beauty seems to be messing with your head because we're IN the Alpha Quadrant, Jonathan! ::laughs::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: I studied both at the Academy.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::smiles at her::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
All: To beauty, more dangerous than the Dominion. ::raises his cha mug::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::raises his cup also:: All: To beauty.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::giggles:: ALL: Really, boys...

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::laughs::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: By the way say hello to Tayla when you see her, we were classmates at the Academy.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
All: Well, I'm afraid it's time for me to leave. I have a meeting back on the ship.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::stands up::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Rome: See you later man.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Polo: I hope so. 

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Rome: Goodbye, Jonathan. See you around, maybe.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Jonathan: No conferences today?

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::takes Solaa's hand in his and kisses the back of her hand:: Solaa: Hopefully. ::grins::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
Polo: None. You know how it is, work, work, work.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::blushes:: Rome: Oh, shoo! You have better things to do.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
::wathces Mr. Rome and takes notes mentally::

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::grins at Solaa:: All: Take care people, and enjoy the conference. Hopefully we'll run into each other again.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::turns around and exits the room::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Rome: bye again and remember I owe you a romulan ale.

LtJG_Jonathan_Rome says:
::looks over his shoulder at the Ensign:: Polo: You bet you do!

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: Nice dude Jonathan. 

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: Indeed.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: so do you plan to attend to any conference?

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: The Counseling one was cancelled... which is a shame because I really wanted to hear what they had to say.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: They should repeat it tomorrow don'they?

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: But it's not like I don't know how to do research anyway. ::smiles and sips her drink::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: I'm not sure if they repeat it tomorrow. ::shrugs and scratches her head::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: This drink makes my skin itch... I don't know why I still drink it.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Sollaa: Oh well a ship is such a huge collection of people that I am sure you don't lack any. ::smiles::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: What are you drinking?

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: Icoberry Juice. Something in the berries that makes my spots itch.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: But I do like it.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: We all have our weaknesses, we just need to know when to stop. ::smiles::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: You speak wisely. Maybe you should be a counselor!

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: Impossible, I can't resist being a smartass.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: A counselor job is quite liberating because I can't resist being a smartass either. ::smirks::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: True and being a counselor they cannot complain. I am afraid that if somebody read my logs I will be scrubbing plasma conduits for a looong time. ::winks::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::smiles::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
::watches the ensign enter and invites him to the table:: 

Ens_Andrews says:
::goes over to the table after smiling at LtJG Solaa::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: Tell me is it pathological? do you have a cure? ::looks serious for a second and then laughs::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo: I have no idea, my dear Riccardo.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Andrews: Hello again! ::smiles::

Ens_Andrews says:
::sits down:: Solaa: To you too. ::smiles::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: Damn, I hate to know I am incurable. Andrews: Hello I am Riccardo, Rico for the friends, USS Triton.

Ens_Andrews says:
::holds out her hand for Ens Polo:: Polo: Hello, I'm Millicent Andrews. USS Sharikahr

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Andrews: Nice to meet you Millicent. ::shakes his hand::

Ens_Andrews says:
::smiles:: Polo: Likewise, and what do you do on the Triton?

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Andrews: I am an operation manager, most of the time I am a computer geek though. ::smiles::

Ens_Andrews says:
::smiles:: Rico: OPS huh, I'm the Ship's Counselor::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
::suddenly feels naked in the company of two counselors:: Andrews: Long live the shrinks.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Polo/Andrews: Well, I better be going.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: nice meeting you Ryn, see you soon I hope.

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::stands up:: Polo: Goodbye, Riccardo. I'm sure I will see you. ::smiles mischievously::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
Andrews: And goodbye again, Millicent.

Ens_Andrews says:
::smiles:: Polo: Likewise to the OPs managers

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Solaa: I will keep my finger crossed then:: Smiles back and nods::

LtJG_Rynia_Solaa says:
::turns and leaves::

Ens_Andrews says:
Polo: So, how long have you been on the Triton?

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Andrews: a few weeks, but i saw my ship towed the first day of duty I think that is a record. ::somber smile::

Ens_Andrews says:
Polo: I've only been on the Sharikahr a short time myself. It's my first assignment.

Ens_Andrews says:
::arches an eyebrow:: Polo: Towed?

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Andrews: Same here, we must have graduate with the same class.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
::raises from his chair when the Commander enters the room::

Ens_Andrews says:
Polo: I actually graduated a year ago. I had some issues that prevented me from taking an assignment immediatly::

Ens_Andrews says:
::stands as well::

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: looks around and smiles at the eager Ensign :: Polo: Relax Ensign. :: motions to him to sit ::

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: nods to Andrews ::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
MacLeod: Thank you commander, feel free to join our table if you like it.

Ens_Andrews says:
::nods back and sits down::

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
Polo: Thank you Ensign. :: takes a seat ::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
:sits down: Andrews: A sabotage to our tactical pod, very bad thing.

Ens_Andrews says:
Polo: Really, that is bad. Did they catch the saboteur?

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
Polo/Andrews: Enjoying yourselves?

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
::smirks: not yet! But I hope we will soon. MacLeod: Absolutely ma'am, it's fun to meet new acquaintances.

Ens_Andrews says:
Adams-Mcleod: Yes, Commander.

Ens_Andrews says:
Rico: I hope so to

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Millicent: Oh we will, nobody can withstand Mr. Polo's investigation skills. ::smiles::

Ens_Andrews says:
::smiles::

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
Polo: So Mr. Polo, did I hear you mention being on the Triton?

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
MacLeod: Yes ma'am, first assigment and proud of it. Great ship and great crew.

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
Polo: Isn't that where Captain K`Vas is in command?

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
MacLeod: Yes ma'am, unfortunately he has been seriously injured during the incident and now he is in coma. So I did not have the pleasure to work with him for long.

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
Polo: I heard that someone tried to asssinate him? Is that correct?

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: smiles over at Andrews ::

Ens_Andrews says:
::smiles back, listening to the conversation::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
MacLeod: I am not sure, maybe, We don't know yet if he was the target of the attack or an unfortunate collateral casualty.

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
Polo: I do hope that situation will be resolved soon.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
MacLeod: Me too ma'am, I look forward to fly through the stars at warp speed. McKinley is becoming quite claustrophobic. 

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: sees Admiral Black enter the room ::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
::stands up again and goes on attention stance::

Ens_Andrews says:
::notices an Admiral entering and stands::

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: stands and motions to Black :: Black : Admiral.

RADM_Black says:
::sees a Commander wave and nods as he heads towards them, smiling faintly::  Polo: Please, Ensign... don't stand for me... we're all here as officers... ranks are left at the door...  ::grins faintly::

Ens_Andrews says:
::sits down and smiles::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Black: Thank you admiral, but you know we snotties are easy to impress. ::smiles::

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:: chuckles at Polo's comment ::

Ens_Andrews says:
Macleod: What ship are you on, Commander?

RADM_Black says:
::grins again:: Polo: True... but don't worry... you'll get used to us easily as well....

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
ALL: can I get you all something to drink ?

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
Andrews : I am the second officer and FCO on the Dublin

Ens_Andrews says:
Polo: I'd like a banana malt, please

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
Polo: A white wine would be lovely Ensign.

RADM_Black says:
Polo: If you are walking to replicator.... I could use a nice cup of coffee.... extra strong, extra sweet.

CO_Cmdr_Jameson says:
::Looks around the room, trying to decide where to sit::

Ens_Andrews says:
Macleod: I'm the CNS on the Sharikahr

CO_Cmdr_Jameson says:
::Notices Black, and wonders whether to approach him::

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
Andrews : A fine ship the Sharikahr. You will enjoy serving there.

RADM_Black says:
::sees Jameson and nods as he gestures her over::  Jameson: Over here, Commander.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
::goes to the replicator and orders the drinks, a good italian white for the commander, then brings them back to the table::

Ens_Andrews says:
Macleod: I like her so far ::smiles::

CO_Cmdr_Jameson says:
::Is slightly relieved that he made the acknowledgement, and smiles gratefully as she heads over to him and the small group::

CO_Cmdr_Jameson says:
Black: I didn't expect to see you here Admiral.

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:; nods to Jameson :: Jameson: Commander.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
MacLeod: The Dublin? Fine ship I heard.

Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
Polo: Indeed she is. :: grins ::

Ens_Andrews says:

Rico: Ah yes, I have learned much of your position today.

Host Admiral_Kelley says:
::steps into the room:: All: There will be a Command Seminar in #Command starting in a few minutes.  Thank you.  ::smiles and steps back into her office::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Capt Horn: Welcome, Captain.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Quinnis: I know I would be curious to go to the astrometrics conference, did you go?

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri: The twins? You mean Jala and Rusty Horn?

CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
Horn: Good Afternoon Captain Horn.

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
Nmbarri:  T'Lok!  Fancy seeing you here ::grins::

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
::nods:: Quinnis: Ensign.

CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
Rico: I'm afraid my transport ran late and I missed it.

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Sees Aquilla Horn arrive::

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Quinnis: Oh not a problem, there should be one tomorrow

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_Bauer: No, I mean my twins, Barrak and T`Les. ::smiles broadly::

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri: I didn't know, congratulations.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_Bauer: Jeni and I have 4 children now.

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
Bauer:  Counselor.  It's been a long time ::smiles::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_Bauer: But, someone else on board the Scorpius is making a run at catching up to us. ::Looks at Captain Horn::

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri; Wow! Four! Surprised you have time for work.

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
AQUILLA: It has been a while, hasn't it? You look good....Captain.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_Rand: Welcome, Councelor, find a chair and have a drink.

CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
Rico: Do you enjoy OPS?

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Quiinnis: Not as much as I thought I would at the moment.

CNS_Rand says:
XO Garta-Nmbarri: Thank you, Sir.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_Rand: Jeni sends her regrets about not being able to be here.  She is tending to her ailing grandmother.

CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
Rico: What is your major concern?

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
CNS:  So do you.  What ship are you on now?

Capt_K`Beth says:
::enters the cafeteria and refreshes her coffee before her seminar::

LtJG_Ko`Bil says:
::walks back int the room and takes a seat off to one side after getting a cup of tea::

Capt_K`Beth says:
::looks around at the gathering and is pleased to see so many people attending the conference::

CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
::sips his raktajino::

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri/Aqilla: I'm with the Geneva.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Quinnis: Not enough action and interaction, but mine is a special case.

CNS_Rand says:
XO Nmbarri:  Sorry to hear that

CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
Rico: How so?

Capt_K`Beth says:
::checks her chronometer and swears quietly as she is running late.  Heads off towards her lecture room::

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
AQILLA: Second Officer...and Counselor, of course.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_Rand: Have you met our new Councelor, Lt Cmdr. Rand?

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
CNS:  Of course ... I'm guessing you now know I'm the Captain of the Scorpius ::grins::

LtJG_Ko`Bil says:
::finishes up his tea and gather up his PADD and leaves the room::

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
AQILLA: Yes, I heard that. Congrarulations.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_Bauer: And what do you think she does on her first mission as captain?  She goes and gets herself shot!

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
::looks at the XO:: I did?  ::mischievious grin::

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri: Ouch! I hope you are ok, now.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Evening everyone, how are we all tonight?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Capt_Horn: Well, grazed at least.  But, the point is, phaser fire and your body came into contact with each other. ::grins::

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Looks at Aqilla:: AQILLA: How are my god children?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion: Good evening to you, we all seem to be doing fine, and you?

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
CNS:  Growing.  They've just started school.  They also have a little brother and another one on the way.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO Garta-Nmbarri: Pretty good, glad to see the room isn't empty like it was earlier.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Chuckles an evil little laugh:: CNS_Rand: we understand the Captain here is expecting quadtuplets.

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
AQILLA: That's quite a handful, four kids.  I hope the twins have been getting my letters ok?

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
Ec`Thel`lon:  Fine.  I'm Captain AQilla Horn, CO of the Scorpius.

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
::looks at the XO as she heard him:: XO:  No I'm not ... ::grins::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Capt_Horn:Lieutenant Commander Ec'Thel'Ion of the Huron.  My friends call me Ec', though.  No need to be formal here I think.

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
::smiles:: Ec`:  No there's not ... Call me AQilla.  Everyone else does ::grins broadly::

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CTO_EC: ...and if they dont call her Captain they call her Mommy, it appears.

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
::Laughs::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_ Bauer: Well, she is still behind in the children race.  Jeni and I are still winning.  However, we have a lot of assistance.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS: Well, I've heard worse things to be called I guess.

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
AQILLA: I should know...I delivered one of them.

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
Bauer:  Yes you did.

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
AQILLA: One of the greatest moments in my career.

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
Bauer:  Not to mention mine ...

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri; I for one am glad you became a lover instead of a fighter.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS: From my understanding, those who wear the blue would always say that.

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
Bauer:  Oh he's stil a fighter ... ::grins at her XO::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_ Bauer: You assume too much, my small friend.  Who said I am no longer a fighter? ::grins::

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
::looks around:: All:  You know this reminds me of a Scorpius convention ...

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri; Well then, maybe I should back off and give you your space.  ::Smiles at the big over grown Klingon and remembers::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_ Bauer: But, these days, I tend to use more olfactory numbing agents than a Bat'Leth.

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri: good to hear, I guess.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_ Bauer:  Well, I cant go around biting my captain anymore.  Just doesn't look good on a resume.

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
::Laughs::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Cmdr McDonald: Welcome Commander, grab a seat.

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Looks around to see if he sees Quinnis, to make sure there are no buttons around him to push::

Cmdr_McDonald says:
CTO: I think I will. Thank you.

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
::nods to McDonald::

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri: I'm glad you learned that. Biting is definately not the course of action when looking to make friends....unless you're into that sort of thing.

Cmdr_McDonald says:
:: nods back :: Good to see you again Captain.

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
McDonald:  And you too, Commander.  I trust things are well with you?

Cmdr_McDonald says:
Horn: Yes they are captain.

Ensign_Rico_Polo says:
Quinnis: unfortunately my ship has been disabled before we could start my mission. And I have been doing other chores all this time.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
All: Well, its time for me to fly off to mission.  we are 108 million light years away from home :)

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO: Um, is it a bad time to say "have a nice trip" then?

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  Me too, T'lok ...

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
::laughs loudly:: Ec:  You could say that

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Ec'Thel'Ion: you could always wish us a safe journey home :)

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
it might take us 25000 years, however

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO: Then that is what I'll do, safe journeys to you.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Ec'Thel'Ion: And I thank you, Commander.

Capt_AQilla_Horn says:
::nods to all:: ALL:  Perhaps we will see you in 25000 years .....

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_ Bauer:  Feel free to observe, Mr. Bauer.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Capt: Hopefully sooner, Captain.  We need to keep those Ambassador's around for our looks.

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri: I dunno, Commander. The Scorpius was always dangerous to my health.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
All: Room got quiet all of a sudden.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Ec'Thel'Ion: People are watching us try to get our ship home

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO: Ah, understood.  I have to report in shortly myself to see just how bad off the Huron is.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
And if I try to do that on duty, it could get me a bit distracted.  ::Grins.::

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Returns to the bar for a refill::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_Bauer: That better be rootbeer, young man ::smiles::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
I'm heading off for awhile, if I don't see the rest of you later, safe journeys.

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri: Rootbeer is only for special occasions....this is Cranberry Juice ::Smiles back::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_ Bauer:  Good man.

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri: My friend Gary Wells has shown intrest in coming off the inactive list and signing on to a ship.  He asked me for my impressions of the Scorpius.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_ Bauer:  I hope you gave a favorable report

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_ Bauer:  we can use a few people

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri: mostly favorable. I want him to be happy wherever he ends up.  He is a Counselor like myself.  But, he has been on Earth, for personal reasons however he has been fulfilling his Medical Training and is thinking of a career change.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS_ Bauer:  we have open medical, science, ops and flight possitions

CNS_Cmdr_Bauer says:
Nmbarri: I'll let him know.

Admiral_Kelley has returned.

Host Admiral_Kelley says:

Host Admiral_Kelley says:
