Agent DanteSmith: it's a reasonable facsimile
DrLaneWinn: ::Belcher left this place trashed::

Agent DanteSmith: Bob> ::sits...tries to calm down...sighs...takes shot:: gosh I miss it
CmdrBrookeDolan: +Zinthys+ Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to check out a plasma fluctuation on one of our fellow ships. You can bring whomever you need, as long as someone competent remains behind.
Agent DanteSmith: ::they go back to just staring out the window::
Lt Allen Zinthys: +Dolan+ Sounds like a worthy adversary. Just so long as it doesn't blow up in five seconds.
DrLaneWinn: ::Can't concentrate until she gets a little something to warm her up::
CmdrBrookeDolan: +Zinthys+ ::chuckles grimly:: Report to TR 1 in five. Kepp me apprised of your situation every half hour. Dolan out.

Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Happy B-Day!>>
Agent DanteSmith: <<Happy Birthday!>>
StarfleetUFP: And I had to do a couple of things
CmdrBrookeDolan: +Luann+ For God's sake! Why can't our sickbay have an actual physician in attendance?
StarfleetUFP: <<ok now back to normalities>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<"Normalities?" What are those?>>
Agent DanteSmith: Bob> :;raises glass:: here here
Agent DanteSmith: Kev> ::glass up:: aye

DrLaneWinn: ::rises to deck one, exits onto bridge::
DrLaneWinn: Commander, you wanted to see me?
Agent DanteSmith: ::chuckles:: I don't think anyone is
Lt Allen Zinthys: We're here to be transported to one of the other ships? Something about a problem with a nacelle.
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::turning:: Ah. Doctor. How are you settling into your new promotion?
CounselorTempest: ::puts out the cigarette discreetly and burries the ash in the roots of a plant::
StarfleetUFP: <<who is the Captain?>>
Agent DanteSmith: Kev> ::grumbles a drunken playful growl:: you guys suck
Agent DanteSmith: <<also not present ;-)>>
Agent DanteSmith: <<RAdm AC Zuriyev>>
StarfleetUFP: <<then who is XO?>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<Admiral Zuriyev is our CO. He's unable to be here tonight. I am Commander Dolan, XO.>>
StarfleetUFP: <<oh yeah forgot sorry?>>
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Steps on the transporter pad and the trio is taken away::
DrLaneWinn: The work is exhausting, Commander. But invigorating.
DrLaneWinn: We've got a lot to do.
CounselorTempest: <<No prob, UFP :-) >>
DrLaneWinn: Dr. Belcher didn't exactly leave the place in... working condition.
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::to Winn:: I wanted to speak to you about your predecessor, Dr Belcher.
CounselorTempest: ::stands and cleans her uniform, bothered by the scent of the smoke::
CounselorTempest: ::sighs unhappily, wanders out of the arboretum toward her quarters::
Lt Allen Zinthys has left the room.
StarfleetUFP: ::looks around engineering:: well this is my new home
DrLaneWinn: Ah... permission to speak freely, commander?
CounselorTempest: ::changes, showers, puts on something dark red and homespun with the look of natural Bajoran clothing::
CmdrBrookeDolan: I got the picture that she was ... not entirely suited for the job.
StarfleetUFP: ::Smiles:: COOL!:-)
CmdrBrookeDolan: Why don't we step into the ready room, doctor?
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::exits bridge, enters RR::
DrLaneWinn: As you wish/
DrLaneWinn: ::follows::
DrLaneWinn: Permission to speak freely, Commander?
StarfleetUFP: ::Walks to Bridige::

StarfleetUFP: ::asks any one on the bridige:: where is the commander?
Lt Allen Zinthys has entered the room.
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<heh. Found the limit on that phone cord>>
StarfleetUFP: <<lol>>
DrLaneWinn: Meghan Belcher was an incompetent nut job. Completely wacked in every possible sense of the word.
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<LOL!>>
Agent DanteSmith has left the room.
CmdrBrookeDolan: ::purses her lips:: Interesting. Any idea why no one figured this out before we found ourselves in this precarious situation?
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Rematerialize on another ship's transporter pad::
DrLaneWinn: She's a master manipulator, Commander, when she wants to be.
DrLaneWinn: She knows how to maneuver her way around people in power.
CmdrBrookeDolan: <<UFP, I'm in the ready room at the moment, but will be out shortly!>>
DrLaneWinn: I don't know what happened this time... but it's not like her to get quite so thrown off her center.
CounselorTempest: ::looks at her hair in the mirror::
CounselorTempest: ::just... looks::
DrLaneWinn: But I can't say I'm not unhappy she did.
CounselorTempest: ::makes a shocking decision to cut all of it off::
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Nods to the transporter operator:: Which way is Main Engineering?
CounselorTempest: ::changes into her uniform again, and returns to the bridge::
Lt Allen Zinthys: <<Guess I do that to women... or maybe just her...>>
Agent DanteSmith has entered the room.
Agent DanteSmith: <<bah>>
CmdrBrookeDolan: Triple negatives tend to trip me up. ::smiles::
Agent DanteSmith: ::all three back to starin out window::
CmdrBrookeDolan: At any rate, do you feel up to the task? I realize your promotion was unexpected, but I need someone competent in charge of my sickbay, especially now.
Chr Nathan Weiss has left the room.
Overlord M has left the room.
DrLaneWinn: I'm up to it, Commander.
Lt Allen Zinthys: ::Follows the engineer who guides them... though he doesn't seem to know the way very well::

Lt Allen Zinthys: Pardon me, but is this a new assignment for you?
StarfleetUFP: ::wlks into ready room(apperntly tiard of waiting)::
CmdrBrookeDolan: Glad to hear it. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help. ::starts back toward the bridge, only to bump into a young officer::

CounselorTempest: ::stands behind the tactical console, wondering why she's here when she's technically offduty::
Lt Allen Zinthys: REG1> You need anything, talk to Yatez up there ::Points to Asian female on catwalk::
CmdrBrookeDolan: Ah, Mr. Valdes. I recall your order now. Forgive me, it's been a bit hectic around here lately.

Lt Allen Zinthys: @::calls up to her:: Ms. Yatez! I'm Lieutenant Zinthys, from the Atlantis. I was told you need assistance?
DrLaneWinn: If working under Meghan Belcher taught us one thing, I suppose it was the value of being prompt... if only to avoid being bitched out.
CmdrBrookeDolan: Well, I only have a few minutes, but I'd be happy to introduce you to ... oh, shoot. I sent half our staff over to the Grissom. I'm afraid a formal introduction will have to wait.
StarfleetUFP: I can wait sir...
