CmdrBrookeDolan: ::on the bridge, attention
focused on the viewscreen, still trying to
figure out what another Fleet vessel is doing
out in the middle of nowhere::
Agent DanteSmith: <<a'ight it sounds
good...Mr. Seinfeld...you're on...>>
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Capt. Harper>
Atlantis, this is Captain Kathryn Harper
of the USS Yeager, please respond.
Cdr Sullivan: :::is standing at the Tac station,
having agreed to help out with the rotation to
give some other people some free time:::
Agent DanteSmith: ::sleeping soundly...or
noisily actually::
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Standing next to the
core, tinkering with one of the panels::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: ::notes how at home
Suli seems to be at Tac::
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::eyes Suli attentively::
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::wonders why they don't
see more attractive women on the bridge,
besides herself and Kiela, of course ... ::
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::NOT that she's
attracted to Suli, it was just a random
observation::
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::NOT that there's
anything wrong with being attracted to Suli, of
course::
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Because they're all in
bed with me :-)>>
Cdr Sullivan: All you have to do is give the
word, and I shall blow them conveniently off
the screen. :::calmly intoned, as if she was
asking for sugar for her tea::::
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::mentally thwaps herself
and turns back to the screen::
Agent DanteSmith: <<riiiiight>>
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Put them on screen.
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Captain Harper, this
is Admiral Zuriyev. I must say, it is a
surprise to see you out here.
Agent DanteSmith: ::eyes pop open...look
of shock::
CmdrBrookeDolan: << {S thwap} anyone
remember that?>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Doesn't do anything
for me>>
Cdr Sullivan: Putting Captain Harpy... on
screen. :::quietly muttered as she does so:::
Agent DanteSmith: ::turn head toward
office window:: woah...bad dream...bad
dream...no death...no death...
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Harper> We followed
you, Admiral. Things are really a
mess in Starfleet back home.
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Repeteadly presses
button-thingys, hoping it'll force a
response::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Harper> What are
your plans, sir?
RAdm AC Zuriyev: We intend to wait
things out here, Captain, hopefully out
of reach of whatever is causing this.
Cdr Sullivan: <<I've got some buttons you
can push.....>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Oh, I enjoy pushing
your buttons>>
Agent DanteSmith: ::looks around
sickbay...looking from patient to
patient::
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<vom ... it>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Hey! There was
actually a non-sexual pun there.>>
Chr Nathan Weiss: <Not only are you all
sick, you are also twisted.<
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Harper> ::nods::
Well, with the disarray Starfleet is
in, I would request to join you.
Agent DanteSmith: ::wonders why they're
all in here...wonders if
they...were...attackedbyMan-Sulitoo!!!!!
:: eeep!
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Okay, that I'll admit
to>>
Agent DanteSmith: ::looks around quickly
for his assailant::
Agent DanteSmith: eeep!!!
Cdr Sullivan: :::scanning the Yeager
throughly::::
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::raises an eyebrow,
surprised that Harper is agreeing with their
decision instead of trying to coerce them to
return::
Cdr Sullivan: <<Man-Sulitoo? Is that the
sequel??>>
Agent DanteSmith: oh...just a nice young
nurse...mmm...nice caboose on that one!
RAdm AC Zuriyev: I will let you know in
a few moments, Captain. ::motions
to Suli to cut the comm::
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Eyes the panel
suspiciously::
Agent DanteSmith: Young Nurse> ::turns::
excuse me?
Cdr Sullivan: :::cuts it decisively:::
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::flicks her gaze towards
Suli, then back to Zuriyev::
Agent DanteSmith: uh....how'sabout youse
and mes havins a drinks togethers?
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::briefly wonders where
that nice young Ensign Yannuss is::
CmdrBrookeDolan: Thoughts, Admiral?
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Thwacks it::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: I know my thoughts.
What are yours? ::looks to his wife
and Suli::
Agent DanteSmith: Young Nurse>
uhm...we're not allowed to date the
patients...sorry ::shrugs...rushes out of
the room::
Cdr Sullivan: :::eyebrow twitches a tiny bit as
she sees the flickering eyes and makes a
mental note:::
Cdr Sullivan: I don't trust it.
Agent DanteSmith: <<oh...out of women?
thwacking inanimate objects now?!>>
Cdr Sullivan: Or her.
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<I never thwacked
females>>
Agent DanteSmith: <<riiiiight>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: I'm surprised, frankly.
CmdrBrookeDolan: I expected a fight.
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Want me to come
thwack you?>>
Agent DanteSmith: oh yeah...she digs me!
Agent DanteSmith: <<ewww>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: An argument, at least.
RAdm AC Zuriyev: The Yeager is in
Third Fleet.
Cdr Sullivan: <<It's not called thwacking....
unless your talking about the sound that my
head.... nevermind.....>>
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Captain Harper has
always followed my orders
unquestioningly in the past.
CmdrBrookeDolan: Yes, and you're in
charge, but that doesn't mean they won't
question your orders.
Agent DanteSmith: <<hey...you said
it...not me...::whistles innocently::>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Who''s which head?>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: If they possibly seem
unusual. ::thinks "treasonous"::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Anything anomalous
on the scans?
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::looks back to Suli::
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Smiles as the panel
lights up properly::
Agent DanteSmith: ::smiles at the other
patients...wondering why they get to sit
up...why they aren't tied down::
Cdr Sullivan: At this point, no. Although I
would question the frequency of the shield
modulation.... I'd have to check with Mr
Zinthys :::thinks Studmuffin::: to verify.
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::purses her lips:: Do it.
CmdrBrookeDolan: If you think anything is
even slightly unusual, pursue it, Commander.
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Smiles at an engineer
walking by and tells him to be sure that
the panel is working properly::
Cdr Sullivan: *Zinthys* Sullivan to Zinthys.
:::tone is cool and impersonal:::
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::turns back to the big Z::
Do you feel he is trustworthy? Any intuition
on this?
RAdm AC Zuriyev: I have always known
her to be an excellent officer and
Captain, Brooke.
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Sighs and heads toward
his office:: ::taps:: +Suli+ Zinthys here,
go ahead.
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<he=she, dur>>
Agent DanteSmith: <<see!!! now both
Suli's are guys!>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<LoL>>
Cdr Sullivan: *Zinthys* Mr Zinthys.... I need
a verification on the field modulation
frequency of the Yeager, there seems to be
some discrepancy in relationship to the
engine output and energy signature that does
not add up to me.
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Harper> ::Wonders
what's taking so long:
Lt Allen Zinthys: +Suli+ Sure. I'll be right
up.
Cdr Sullivan: <<Everyone.... put on your
boots.... it's getting awfully deep.>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Heads to the TL,
PADD in hand::
Lt Allen Zinthys: Deck 1.
Agent DanteSmith: <<::pulls on
waders::>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<::loves that
technobabbleshit::>>
Agent DanteSmith: <<PADD or TL?
:-D>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Does it make me weird,
then, that what she said made perfect
sense?>>
Cdr Sullivan: He'll be right.... up.
Agent DanteSmith: <<I understood it>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<You were already
weird. And I'm afraid we probably all
understood it too, as we are collectively
weird.>>
Agent DanteSmith: <<but that dosn't mean
you're not wierd>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::TL stops and he walks
onto the bridge::
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<True 'nough>>
Cdr Sullivan: :::continues to scan and feed
information into the computer::::
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::turns to Zinthys,
wonders why he couldn't have figured this
out from engineering::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: ::waits, thinking:;
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Heads for the
engineering slot on the bridge:: Go
ahead and forward the information here,
Commander.
Cdr Sullivan: :::eyes dart immediately to
Zinthys posterior and then dart back to her
console::: As you wish.... ::: does so::::
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Stands and leans over
the console slightly, declining to sit::
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Taps on the input
device::
Cdr Sullivan: <<Monster>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: Hmm... well, it's not
normal, but it doesn't seem sinister.
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<And you know you
love it>>
Cdr Sullivan: What could cause such a
discrepancy?
Cdr Sullivan: <<:::growls playfully:::>>
Agent DanteSmith: <<hehehehehe>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: Just a problem with the
engine. It's possible that it was damaged
and repared improperly.
Cdr Sullivan: :::nods, understanding but not
quite accepting.... which is normally since
she is suspicious by nature::::
Cdr Sullivan: Shall I reopen the
communication, Captain?
Lt Allen Zinthys: See here ::taps:: and
::here:: taps ::Forwards to Tac:: where
the readings are strange?
Cdr Sullivan: :::looks intentively and nods:::
Yes.... you don't think they are masking
something?
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Yes, I have decided.
I know Kathryn Harper to be true to
her word, and I am going to allow
this.
Cdr Sullivan: Opening the channel. ::::beepity
beeps the console:::
Lt Allen Zinthys: Huh.... what? masking?
Oh, no. It's just an inordinate amount of
positrons flowing from the engine
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::decides to trust her
husband on this, without interfering, hopes
he's right::
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<ooh!!! talk physics to
me, Zinthys!!>>
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Captain Harper, I
have decided to grant your request.
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<LoL>>
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Harper> Thank you,
Admiral. Orders?
Cdr Sullivan: :::looks at Zinthys::: If you are
wrong..... I shall hold you responsible for
any harm that comes to the Captain.
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Keep your shields up
at all times, and stay in formation. If
there is a threat, do your damnedest
to keep from taking damage. We can
not just go back to a starbase for
repairs.
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Turns and leans back on
his elbows:: <w> It doesn't matter. He
trusts her. It's his decision.
Agent DanteSmith: ::drifts back to sleep::
Cdr Sullivan: Of course it it.... :::leans
forward::: But it is my job not to trust.
:::murmured:::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Harper> Aye, sir.
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Atlantis out. ::makes
the cut motion again::
Lt Allen Zinthys: So you be untrusting of
everything, I'll trust what I see.
Cdr Sullivan: :::wicked smile::: The question
is.... when it comes down to it... can YOU
be trusted?
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<::is always amused
how Zuriyev makes sure to italicize ship
names in sims ... ::>>
Chr Nathan Weiss: <::notes to be almost
obsessive::>
Cdr Sullivan: Where do YOUR loyalties.....
lie? :::eyebrow quirks playfully:::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: <<It's not that hard
to hit CTRL-I before typing them.
:-) >>
CmdrBrookeDolan: ACTION> Another
vessel, not immediately identifiable, appears
on long-range sensors. It is on an intercept
course for Atlantis and the Yeager.
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Easy smile:: I can't make
you trust me, can I?
Cdr Sullivan: :::sensor beeps and she
straightens::: Captain... incoming vessel...
intercept course for our co-ordinates.
CmdrBrookeDolan: Can you identify it,
Commander?
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Again, this place is
awfully crowded to be unexplored.
Cdr Sullivan: :::eyes slide Zinthys and then
focus on her task:::
Agent DanteSmith: <<that's assuming you
payed enought attention to know to hit
Ctrl-I>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Turns, leans over and
calls up what he can see::
Cdr Sullivan: Still too far out to identify with
any certainty.
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<On AOL, it would
call up the IM window, so I got out of the
habit>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: Unidentified Ship>
::approaches::
Agent DanteSmith: Kev> ::wonders
around the ship aimlessly...not liking off
duty time::
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::taps:: +ME+ Zinthys to
engineering.
Cdr Sullivan: :::checks shield integrity and
makes sure weapons are online and ready:::
CmdrBrookeDolan: Unidentified Ship>
::approaches closer still::
CmdrBrookeDolan: Can we get it on the
viewscreen yet?
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Doesn't wait for a
voice::+ME+ Boost up the shields. We
may be needing them.
Cdr Sullivan: :::beepity beeps::: I'm getting a
lock.... transponder codes identify it as the
USS Grisson.... Intrepid class.
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Doesn't wait for a
response:: +ME+ Zinthys out.
Cdr Sullivan: We'll have visual
in.....4.....3.....2.....1.....
Cdr Sullivan: :::brings it onscreen::::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: The Grissom...
another of my ships.
Agent DanteSmith: <<they're coming for
you...>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Looks at the
viewscreen::
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::furrows her brow:: Two
3rd Fleet ships both out here at the same time?
Agent DanteSmith: Kev> ::finds himself in
the mess hall::
CmdrBrookeDolan: Interesting coincidence.
CmdrBrookeDolan: Grissom> ::hails
Atlantis::
Cdr Sullivan: :::clenches her hand to try to halt
the sensual memory of his hair between her
fingers:::: They are hailing us.
CmdrBrookeDolan: Grissom> ::italicizes self
to look more professional::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: On screen.
Agent DanteSmith: <<heh>>
Cdr Sullivan: :::established a communications
lock and brings it onscreen as directed::::
CmdrBrookeDolan: Grissom> This is
Captain Adela Timon, USS Grissom.
RAdm AC Zuriyev: <<Timon! "Why...
when he was a young warthog....">>
Agent DanteSmith: <<roflmao>>
Cdr Sullivan: <<Man.... when I get back to
the real Suli.... I'm not going to know how to
act.>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<::dies:: That's what I
get for thinking off the cuff!>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<::sings:: When I was a
young wart
hoooooooooooooooooooog!!!!!>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<LOL... yeah that
would really freak Allen out..>>
RAdm AC Zuriyev: <<Very nice.>>
Cdr Sullivan: <<Not to mention Suli...>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<::eats a grub for
effect::>>
Cdr Sullivan: <<:::winces::: Gross.>>>
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Captain, how nice to
see you out here.
Agent DanteSmith:
<<mmmmm...grubby!>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: Timon> Admiral, a
pleasure as always. I was wondering ... mind if
we join the party?
Cdr Sullivan: :::begins scanning and
transmitting data to Zinthys console for
verification::::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: I assume that you
have much the same story as the
Yeager?
Agent DanteSmith: Kev>::sees Bob sitting
at a table and joins him::
Agent DanteSmith: Kev> ::joins him in
staring out the window::
CmdrBrookeDolan: Timon> Actually,
Harper contacted me not long ago. Seeing as
how things are pretty much going to hell in a
handcart, I figured no sense in voluntarily killing
ourselves. We could be more useful out here,
alive.
Agent DanteSmith: Kev> so what's out
there?
CmdrBrookeDolan: Timon> Not that we'd
desert, just want to play it smart. You
understand.
Cdr Sullivan: <<Poor Dante.... if someone
would untie him... he could join the party.
:D>>
Agent DanteSmith: <<::sniff sniff::>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Sees the stream of
information on the left side of the console,
and starts checking them out::
Agent DanteSmith: Bob>
nothing...absolutley nothing...
RAdm AC Zuriyev: One moment then,
Captain.
CmdrBrookeDolan: Nurse Luann>
::approaches tied-up Dante:: Oh, you poor
thing! The doctor hasn't been by to let you out
yet? What a bitch!
RAdm AC Zuriyev: ::turns back to Suli::
Anything?
Agent DanteSmith: Bob> well...cept that
galaxy...
CmdrBrookeDolan: Nurse Luann> ::quickly
unties Dante:: There you are, you poor dear.
Run and play with your friends now!
Cdr Sullivan: :::looks to Zinthys::::
Agent DanteSmith: ::springs back to life::
do-huh?
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<::Evil grin:: Or we
could bring, well, a party to him... heh heh>>
Agent DanteSmith: uhm...am
I...actually...free to go?
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<I'll bring the dip!>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: Looks right to me...
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<Zinthys, let's go!
WAAH HA HA HA HA!!!!>>
Cdr Sullivan: I'm seeing signatures that match
a ship that's been running hard.....
CmdrBrookeDolan: Brooke> ::turns to
Zuriyev:: You trust this captain as well, I
presume?
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Well, I know what I
wanna "dip">>
Cdr Sullivan: <<I'll bring the Chip.>>
Agent DanteSmith: Kev> you mean the
one we're from? ::rolls eyes::
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Doh!>>
Cdr Sullivan: <<:::snickers:::>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::grins wryly:: Why is it
that 3rd Fleet has the prettiest female CO's, I
wonder?
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<::snorts::>>
Agent DanteSmith: Bob> oh...my
mistake...that's an Akira...
RAdm AC Zuriyev: ::nods to Brooke::
Agent DanteSmith: Kev> huh?
oh...::thinks the bossman is loony::
Lt Allen Zinthys: That would seem
consistent
CmdrBrookeDolan: Timon> ::waits patiently
for her view of the Atlantis bridge to return
to her screen, fluffs her hair a bit::
Agent DanteSmith: ::sits on the edge of
the biobed...looking around at the other
free patients...wonders why he's no longer
tied down::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: All right, bring them
back up.
CmdrBrookeDolan: Timon> ::looks up from
her hands, where she was admiring her nail
polish:: Oh, Admiral!
Cdr Sullivan: If you contact the engineering
department at all... you might tell them to
stop running the energy stream so richly....
:::pops the communication up::::
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Replies:: Why is that?
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Very well, Captain.
Do not lower your shields, stay in
formation, and try like hell not to take
damage.
Cdr Sullivan: :::leans forward and softly
continues::: It'll saef wear on their relays.
CmdrBrookeDolan: Timon> That all goes
without saying, Admiral. Thank you. We'll
certainly do our best.
Cdr Sullivan: <<save>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: Timon> Oh, by the way
... other than that advice, do you actually
have a plan?
Agent DanteSmith: ::stands and nods to
his former roomies:: I shall be leaving
now...good bye! ::giggles like a school girl
and heads out::
Lt Allen Zinthys: hrmmm... ::Taps around::
Lt Allen Zinthys: Perhaps, but that will
mean slower response times.
RAdm AC Zuriyev: To just wait, for
now. If there seems to be no point in
returning to the alpha quadrant, we
will go elsewhere.
CmdrBrookeDolan: Timon> ... That's your
plan?
RAdm AC Zuriyev: The delta quadrant,
perhaps.
Cdr Sullivan: Maybe if they placed some
dampening fields in the areas that don't require
the precision response times... or a focusing
module at the systems that do.... :::thinking
aloud:::
Agent DanteSmith: ::passes by the
messhall...decides to stop in for a drink::
Cdr Sullivan: We're not going to be able to
run to the nearest Star Depot for parts and
spares.
CmdrBrookeDolan: Timon> ::sighs resignedly
and nods:: Of course. I didn't mean to question
you, sir. The Grissom will go where the 3rd
Fleet goes ... or what's left of it, anyway.
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Blink:: But, we can
replicate them.
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Good to know that
we can rely on you, Captain.
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<Star Depot!!!
LOL!!>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: Timon> Always,
Admiral. Thank you. Grissom out. ::cuts
comm::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Looks like we have
ourselves a convoy.
Cdr Sullivan: Is it really a good idea to overly
tax the replicating systems?
CmdrBrookeDolan: Brooke> ::suppresses a
grin:: Starfleet's finest, eh?
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Whatever that
means anymore.
CmdrBrookeDolan: Just hope we don't run
out of hairspray out in the far reaches of the
galaxy ...
Agent DanteSmith: ::sees two of his fellow
officers seated by the window and decides
to join them::
Cdr Sullivan: <<We've got a mighty convoy
trucking through the night....>>
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Anyway, we still
have a job to do.
Agent DanteSmith: <<hehehe>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Sighs:: You're right. We
are gonna have to start going about
things differently now...
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::nods:: Of course. We
are Starfleet officers.
Cdr Sullivan: Get out the paperclips.... it's
time to be creative.
CmdrBrookeDolan: So let's get to it, and
bravely go ... or ... whatever.
Agent DanteSmith: Kev> hello Dante...
RAdm AC Zuriyev: We are going to
bravely sit, for now.
Agent DanteSmith: ::nods:: hi
Cdr Sullivan: You do know how to be
creative, don't you, Zinthys?
Agent DanteSmith: what're we lookin at?
Agent DanteSmith: Bob> ::sits
silently...watchin the ships::
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Smiles slyly:: <vqw> You
have to ask?
Agent DanteSmith: Kev> I'm not sure...
Agent DanteSmith: ::looks out at the
ships:: looks like ships
Agent DanteSmith: Kev> ::rolls eyes:: (m)
humans...
Agent DanteSmith: what was that?
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Turns back to the
console, wiggles a little::
CmdrBrookeDolan: Fine with me, Admiral.
Care to join me in your ready room?
Agent DanteSmith: Bob> he said
"Timon's"...that's Captain Timon's ship
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Starts to see what he
can modify::
RAdm AC Zuriyev: ::nods:: Sullivan, the
bring is yours.
RAdm AC Zuriyev: ::walks to the RR::
Agent DanteSmith: Kev> ::stares at him in
unbelief::
Cdr Sullivan: :::whispers::: I've seen but one
performance.... what else is on your menu?
Agent DanteSmith: ::nods:: ah
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::to Suli:: You can have
the bridge too, if you like.
Cdr Sullivan: :::straightens::: Aye, sir... I have
the bridge.
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::suppresses a grin,
follows Zuriyev::
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Grins:: More than
enough to whet an appetite.
Cdr Sullivan: But is it satsfying?
RAdm AC Zuriyev: <<Didn't catch that
typo.>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<grin>>
Agent DanteSmith: ::the three Security
officers continue to stare at the ships::
Agent DanteSmith: ::drinks arrive...they
drink...and continue staring::
Lt Allen Zinthys: Like a large slab of steak.
Agent DanteSmith: ::food arrives...they
eat...and continue staring::
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::in the RR, relaxes
somewhat:: I must say, Alexi. I am feeling
somewhat better, which I'm sure you can tell.
It's good to not be entirely alone in this. I'm
glad you have good officers under you.
Lt Allen Zinthys: Or there's the soup,
which is just filling.
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::smiles coyly:: Myself
included ...
Cdr Sullivan: I like my steak rare..... lots of....
juice.
RAdm AC Zuriyev: ::nods:: Safety in
numbers. We have a fighting chance.
Agent DanteSmith: <<ewww...cook
it...sheesh>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<EW!!!!! SEXUAL
CONNOTATIONS WITH FOOD! BAD!>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: Ah, yes. Good meat is
the house specialty.
CmdrBrookeDolan: Better than our odds a
few hours ago, at any rate.
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Worse than sex with
food?>>
Cdr Sullivan: <<:::rolling:::>>
Cdr Sullivan: What are you doing for dinner?
RAdm AC Zuriyev: Definitely. I am glad
that are feeling better. I do not wish
for you to be worried.
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::approaches him:: I
almost feel like I can once again forget I'm your
XO, and occasionally be simply your wife.
