❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards That's ok. No worries
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain I thought I should let you know
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards How is everyone tonight?
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Frozen and frustrated
Chef JC Gibbs Tired celebrating a 5 year olds birthday

❙❙ Karlie Waters Sure
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Sounds good to me
Commander do you think we might be able to run into a blue police call box sometime?
Alexi Michelle no.. and they aren;t really bigger on the inside
Sgt Major Calder They do have things like that in Trek
Alexi Michelle only if we have it as part of a holodeck or something
Sgt Major Calder Enterprise and Discovery
❙❙ Karlie Waters It's staff approval, because straight up posts removes members
Alexi Michelle you know '20th century television'. At least I would think so
@❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain
Commander do you think we might be able to run into a blue police call box sometime?
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards ???

❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain It was just an idea
Alexi Michelle (are we a go yet?)
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards Crap. Sorry. Yes. Let's
LCARS Begin Sim
Alexi Michelle ::standing at the tactical station since the ship is at Yellow Alert::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::walks around in medical::
Sgt Major Calder :: In the armory, though he was not sure how it would be needed just yet ::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain
Seamus-- in Main Engineering, making sure everything is running right
Sivain-- going through everything in sick Bay making sure their inventory is where it should be according to the charts
Chef JC Gibbs ::asleep in his office just off the kitchen feet up on the desk::
❙❙ Karlie Waters :: smiled at Sivain::
Ens Gaavr :: on the bridge ::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Sivain-- greetings Miss Waters, do you need help with anything?
Matthew Edwards ::sat in the chair on the Bridge::
Alexi Michelle ::using long range scanners to identify any trouble that may be headed our way. Rubs the back of her neck having been on duty for more than one shift. Stifles a yawn::
❙❙ Karlie Waters I'm just here to be assistant. Since all I seem to remember is medical....
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Sivain-- I have no complaints with that since there may be times that I will be needing help and if there is anything I can do to help you improve your knowledge and medical and whatever, I would be more than happy to do so
Ensign Chloe Waters ::at the helm, probably. is also way too bloody short to use her console easily::
Alexi Michelle ::shakes her head a little to keep awake. Glances around the bridge and notice Chloe not really reaching her console:: It would be nice if we could retrofit something that fits you better.
Ensign Chloe Waters Protocol.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Seamus--++ Gibbs++ hey Gibbs I hae samethaing fer ye doon hair ain Ainjinirin
Ensign Chloe Waters ::in a completely robotic voice, her mouth doesn't seem to move at all::
Chef JC Gibbs ((What in gods name is he saying LOL?))

(He's got something for you down in Engineering)
Chef JC Gibbs ++Seamus++ Ok ::yawns and stretches:: i'm on my way
Matthew Edwards ::looks over at Chloe:: We'll get you a higher seat Ensign. ::he smiled with a nod::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::she nodded::
Ensign Chloe Waters They are designed according to specific specifications to fit as many people as possible within an average body type and height. I do not fit any of the pre-defined categories.
I would encounter the same difficulties, perhaps even more highly acute, at different stations.
Sgt Major Calder :: Checking the rifles and pistols ::
Alexi Michelle So they need to find a better way to make it fit you. ::shakes her head and looks back at the LRS::
Chef JC Gibbs ::Heads for the lift:: Main engineering. ::away the lift went::
❙❙ Keera ReyBOT ::runs scans at her station::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Seamus-- has a complete set of already seasoned cast iron cookware on an anti-grav sled for Gibbs when he gets there
Alexi Michelle ::mumbles:: Man I could use a cup of tea about now.
Ens Gaavr :: Checking all manners of subspace bands ::
Ensign Chloe Waters Beverages on a starship bridge are also not regulation, according to my understanding of protocols.
Chef JC Gibbs ::Enters main engineering::Seamus where you at?
Matthew Edwards ::looks over at Alexi:: I could use a cup of coffee myself
Alexi Michelle ::Sighs:: No they are not. wouldn't want to spill on any of the delicate equipment.
Chef JC Gibbs ::like magic two kitchen stewards enter the bridge with tea, coffee and wateron a tray:: Chef said you'll might be thirsty.

Alexi Michelle I really am beginning to love that guy ::takes a tea and sips::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain ( over here, your present's by the main console)
Chef JC Gibbs ::almost trips over his "present":: oww.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::She sighed:: I'm going to try the messhall and see if the cheif has anything. You want anything Sivain?
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Seamus-- Sairry tha ait's sae haivy
LCARS Action: The next shift crew takes over for the Bridge crew.
Ensign Chloe Waters ::hisses quietly in annoyance at something on her console::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Sivain-- maybe some orange chamomile tea please
Matthew Edwards ::sighs in relief:: Awesome. Coffee. Here I come.
Chef JC Gibbs ::rubs his shins:: Nice pans where you get these? ::pick up a pan and examining it,
Ensign Chloe Waters ::heads for her quarters::
Alexi Michelle ::passes over her station to the next guy, takes her tea and heads for the mess hall for more::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::She smiled:: Alright. You're welcome to come too.
❙❙ Keera Rey ::she left to go visit Calder::

❙❙ Karlie Waters ::She entered the messhall:: Anyone here?

❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Sivain-- goes with Karlie to the messs hall
Ensign Chloe Waters Mandy> ::sniffs around for chef::
Chef JC Gibbs ::a steward walked out with another tray of sandwiches::
Alexi Michelle ::lifts her cup in a wave at Karlie:: You weren't the only one headed here. Not sure where the Chef is at tho.
Matthew Edwards ::arrives at the Mess Hall and grabs a cup. He goes to the dispensary and places his cup in:: Coffee with sugar and hazelnut cream.
Chef JC Gibbs ::the machine makes a hiss and gurgling sound and nothing comes out but sludge::
Sgt Major Calder Well, so much for some action.
Ensign Chloe Waters Mandy> ::settles on sniffing in Alexi's direction, approaches with Chloe in tow::
Alexi Michelle ::looks at Edwards oddly:: Replicated coffee, Sir?
❙❙ Karlie Waters :: Stands in line behind Matthew::
Alexi Michelle You are breaking Chef's heart!
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::She laughed::
Ensign Chloe Waters Mandy> ::bumps Alexi with her nose::
❙❙ Keera Rey There's always action some where. ::she smirked::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Sivain-- heads back to Sick Bay and returns with the industrial-size coffee urn that they keep in The Doctors Lounge for people to use
Matthew Edwards ::looks at his cup:: Not what I ordered. Great. Gotta get this fixed.
Alexi Michelle ::points to the rather large coffee urns on a table:: There's the real stuff ::Looks down at the dog and smiles, scratches behind the ears:: And hello to you too.
Chef JC Gibbs ::the machine hisses and coffee pours out of the machine all over the commanders boots and pants::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::She nodded to Alexi and she walked over for the real Coffee::
Ensign Chloe Waters Mandy> ::sniffs at Edwards's cup::
Sgt Major Calder Oh I know the kind of action you speak of, but it's not taken too kindly on a first contact mission.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Sivain-- brings in the coffee machine and set it up to help supplement the other one
Alexi Michelle I would stay away from that stuff Mandy, very far.
Ensign Chloe Waters ::tries to figure out what Mandy is so interested in::
Matthew Edwards ::looks over:: Oh yeah
❙❙ Keera Rey Agreed.
Matthew Edwards ::throws away the cup and grabs a new one. He goes to the urns and makes a cup::
Alexi Michelle ::chuckles and sips her tea as she continues to scritch the dog behind the ears::
Matthew Edwards Thanks Alexi.
Alexi Michelle No Problem, Commander
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::she had finished her cup and sat down at a table::
Sgt Major Calder Are you between shifts?
Ensign Chloe Waters Mandy> ::headbutts Alexi's hand, completely pacified::
❙❙ Keera Rey Yes, mine just finished.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Sivain-- pours several cups of coffee for people
Alexi Michelle ::rubs Mandy's head:: You're a good girl, aren't you? And smart I bet.
Ensign Chloe Waters Mandy> ::yips softly::
Sgt Major Calder I'm just finishing up here, so perhaps we can eat in.
Ensign Chloe Waters She appears to like you.
Matthew Edwards ::walks over to Karlie:: Anyone sitting here?
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Sivain-- offers Mandy some puppy treats
Alexi Michelle ::smiles:: I thought so. ::looks up at Chloe:: It appears that way. She's a beautiful dog.
Sgt Major Calder Maybe you could use some target practice.
Ensign Chloe Waters Mandy> ::sits on Alexi's foot::
❙❙ Karlie Waters No one is, but me :: smiled::
❙ Keera Rey Sure, teach me.
Alexi Michelle ::laughs at the sudden weight on her foot:: I'm thinking she wants me to stay put
Sgt Major Calder We'll have to get the practice guns so we don't blow a hole in the ship.
Ensign Chloe Waters So it would appear.
Matthew Edwards ::he smiled and sat down with her::
Chef JC Gibbs ::comes back in to the kitchen hauling the sled with pots and pans::
❙❙ Karlie Waters Is it strange not to remember much from your past?
Alexi Michelle ::sees the Chef and holds up the cup of tea and calls out:: You sure know the way to a tired girls heart, Gibbs. Thanks!
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Sivain-- rolls at puppy cheese ball or three to Mandy
Ensign Chloe Waters Mandy> ::smells Chef and runs over::
❙ Keera Rey ::she nodded:: sure
Ensign Chloe Waters It would appear she recognizes who provides the food for the crew.(edited)
Alexi Michelle Ahh, seems she likes Chef better.
Matthew Edwards ::he looked at her:: No. I don't think so
Chef JC Gibbs ::smiles and kneels giving her a special organic dog treat he makes:: Hi pretty girl and scratches behind her ears
Ensign Chloe Waters I am not certain. I believe she simply equates him with food.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::shook her head:: I feel like ten years has left me with memories that don't feel my own....
Ensign Chloe Waters Mandy> ::gobbles it down::
Sgt Major Calder :: Goes to a cabinet and gets out two pistols ::
Alexi Michelle He does know the way to a girls heart ::chuckles::
Ensign Chloe Waters ::raises brows::
Chef JC Gibbs ::smiles and stands looking at Alexi:: I do my best
❙ Keera Rey ::watches with interest::
Alexi Michelle ::blushes::
Ensign Chloe Waters Mandy> ::sniffs the pots and pans::
Matthew Edwards ::he took her hand and smiled:: It'll be ok. You can make new memories
Chef JC Gibbs ::chuckles:: our resident engineer made those for me
Alexi Michelle he could have at least delivered them for you.
Sgt Major Calder :: flips it out :: A phase pistol. Fires a pulse of phased energy rather than a continuous beam.
❙❙ Karlie Waters True.. ::she sighed:: I hate feeling out of place....
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain Gibbs will find that the pots and pans will have no hotspots to burn the food but it will cook evenly in them with only the typical cleanup needed for cast iron
❙ Keera Rey ::she nodded::
Sgt Major Calder :: flips the phase strength setting :: has four settings, each deadlier than the last.
Matthew Edwards You don't have to anymore. We're all here. We're family.
Chef JC Gibbs Nah its ok he was busy recalibrating something or other.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::she nodded looking to Alexi, Gibbs, Chloe, and then Matthew:: I guess.
Alexi Michelle ::smirks at a memory of one of the farm women chasing her around after she used a frying pan as a target.. sling shot pebbels sounded really cool hitting it::
Ensign Chloe Waters Mandy> ::sniffs in Karlie's direction::
Alexi Michelle ::smiles over at Karlie when she catches her looking :: I wonder if those pans would make the same sound ::muses aloud::
Matthew Edwards ::he nods and drinks his coffee:: Are you hungry?
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::she nodded:: yeah. I could eat.
Chef JC Gibbs ::looks at Alexi concerned:: What sound? Don’t even think about hurting my new pans.
Sgt Major Calder :: Hands Keera a practice pistol ::'
Alexi Michelle ::looks all innocent :: I would never hurt your pans. You'd flay me!
Chef JC Gibbs ::looks at her:: why don’t I believe you....you look like the type that shot bb at pans as a kid.
Alexi Michelle They were pebbles
Chef JC Gibbs AH HA Knew you stay away from my pans.
Alexi Michelle ::smiles sweetly:: Yes, Gibbs. I'll keep my pebble throwing hands away from your shiny new pans
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::she looked to the chef:: what do you have to eat?
LCARS Pause Sim
Ensign Chloe Waters Mandy> ::paws her way towards Karlie, sniffing::
Alexi Michelle ::walks over to the table with all the sandwiches and grabs a plate, gets a sandwich and some sides and finds a table::
::PAWZD::
Chef JC Gibbs There are some sandwiches, ham, turkey and cheese. ::points at the table::
Ensign Chloe Waters ::pause::
Chef JC Gibbs ::pause::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::pause::
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards And just when we were about to eat
Alexi Michelle LOL
❙❙ Karlie Waters Yeeep
Alexi Michelle I guess we are just fading to black as we ride off into the sunset....
