LMajAdamDrake: Jackson> Aye, sir.
Warm-up sequence in progress.
CaptDougMcKnight: ::Stands in the security command and control
center, monitoring the comm traffic before turning to the appropriate
technician:: Looks like we're getting ready to shove off. Better recall our men
from the airlock.
LMajAdamDrake: Keep me informed. I'll be
in my office. ::moves into his office and lets the doors slide shut:: Ah, the
quiet that I've missed so much.
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ Blackthorne
to Drake.
CaptDougMcKnight: I'm willing to bet they're getting more than a
little bored with standing there looking stolid.
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ Go ahead,
Admiral. ::looks at a PADD::
CaptDougMcKnight: ::As the technician nods and begins recalling
the marines still on duty, checks the roster and notes to his satisfaction that
all his people are back onboard.::
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ Estimated
time until the warp core is ready for launch?
7:50 PM
Lt TKirr: <<Sorry.. was forced afk>>
CaptDougMcKnight: (WB)
LMajAdamDrake: ::looks at a PADD,
another one, that is:: +Blackthorne+ We started started the warm-up sequence.
Probably ten minutes or so, sir.
Lt TKirr: ::making last minute adjustments to
her quarters::
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ Excellent,
keep me informed.
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ Aye, sir.
::stands and moves into engineering:: Start the main warm-up sequence. I want
full power to engines and thrusters within ten minutes. Jeddin, get to the warp
manifold and monitor it's progress.
Kiley Airell: ((Okay, bak . . . sorry
y'all . . . I'm at my relatives' place))

Major. ::starts inputting the codes:: Awaiting your command authorization, sir.
LMajAdamDrake: Authorization?
Lt Dakota Ellis: ::manually accesses her personal
files and rebulids her music programs:: I really really dislike station techs..
First they fix my hole then they screw up my music... you just don't mess with
a person's music
Lt TKirr: ::slides to a stop at the Bridge and
exits lift, giving the place a once over::
8:00 PM
LMajAdamDrake: Lee> ::doesn't look
amused:: When they refit the ship they lock the core, remember?
LMajAdamDrake: Ah, yes, docking and
refit protocols.
Lt Dakota Ellis: and now they have me talking to
myself
Kiley Airell: ::chuckles:: You didn't
like the other ship much, did ya?
VAdm Blackthorne: Oh, it had its
moments.
Kiley Airell: But . . . it wasn't really
yours . . .
LMajAdamDrake: Computer, reintegrate the
warp core systems with the surrounding components. Full activation of warp
core. Authorization Drake Zeta Alpha Two One Seven.
LMajAdamDrake: Computer>
Authorization Confirmed.
VAdm Blackthorne: It wasn't. And I
couldn't rely on it.
LMajAdamDrake: ::watches the core hum to
light and gets bathed in blue light:: +Blackthorne+ Engineering to Bridge.
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ Blackthorne
here.
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ We're ready

at T'Kirr:: Welcome aboard, Lieutenant.
Lt TKirr: ::nods and promptly takes her
station::
Lt Dakota Ellis: ::gets two programs in place::
That'll do.. Computer play Ellis music program 2b.. Then activate the sencor
grid..
VAdm Blackthorne: ::sees that Markus
isn't at the helm, slides into the seat::
VAdm Blackthorne: Lt. T'Kirr, is the
entire crew aboard?
Lt TKirr: ::checks status::
Lt Dakota Ellis: ::rolls over to a command consoul::
Well at least the chairs roll better'
Lt TKirr: ::looks up:: Aye, sir.
8:05 PM
Lt Dakota Ellis: ::listens to Bajroan flutes:: cause
heaven forbid I acturally walked around the lab
VAdm Blackthorne: +Dockmaster+ Vice
Admiral Blackthorne to Starbase One Docking Control.
LMajAdamDrake: Hey guys, you're going to
need to prepare to engage one-fourth impulse.
LMajAdamDrake: Engineers> ::look at
him funny::
VAdm Blackthorne: +Dockmaster+ Go
ahead, Admiral. ::Gulps::
Lt TKirr: <<rofl>>
VAdm Blackthorne: +Dockmaster+ USS
Atlantis requesting permission to launch.
VAdm Blackthorne: ::grins::
LMajAdamDrake: Just trust me.
LMajAdamDrake: Jeddin> Sir, lauching
procedures are manuevering thrusters only.
LMajAdamDrake: ::nods:: I know that.
::shrugs:: Tell that to the Admiral.
VAdm Blackthorne: Dockmaster> Granted,
Admiral. Have a safe trip. ::begins opening the spacedoors::
VAdm Blackthorne: +Dockmaster+
Blackthorne out.
Lt Dakota Ellis: ::notices we're getting ready to
launch::
VAdm Blackthorne: Dockmaster>
Watch this! ::to the others in the office:: He always breaks the thrusters-only
rule.
VAdm Blackthorne: ::transfers
Atlantis to internal power::
Lt Dakota Ellis: ::pulls her legs up and holds on to
the arms of the chair:: I love this part
Lt TKirr: ::brings external sensors online::
Lt Dakota Ellis: Crewmen> We're launching!!
Everyone hold tight!
Kiley Airell: ::relaxes in the chair
Kiley Airell: ::
VAdm Blackthorne: ::clears all
moorings::
Lt TKirr: ::hangs onto her console::
CaptDougMcKnight: ::Waits for it:: If he was a real man, he'd cut
out this "One fourth" crap.
LMajAdamDrake: There go the moorings.
All right, people, here we go.
VAdm Blackthorne: ::backs the
Atlantis out of her parking spot::
VAdm Blackthorne: ::lines her up with
the spacedoors::
8:10 PM
CaptDougMcKnight: ::Scoffs as a marine looks at him funny:: What?
Sure, he's a Maverick and all, but Han Solo would so be thumbing his nose at
us.
VAdm Blackthorne: ::engages FULL
impulse power!::
VAdm Blackthorne: ACTION> Atlantis
rockets out of the spacedoors!
CaptDougMcKnight: Marine> Han Solo flew a ship the size of our
cargo bay.
Lt Dakota Ellis: ::bounces around the lab like a pin
ball::
VAdm Blackthorne: Dockmaster>
::jaw drops::
CaptDougMcKnight: Woah!
CaptDougMcKnight: ::Steadies himself on a panel:: No way...no
one's THAT Betazoid.
Lt TKirr: ::manages to free one hand to check
their clearance::
Lt Dakota Ellis: (No one's that betaziod?)
VAdm Blackthorne: ::sets a course and
engages to warp six once they're clear::
CaptDougMcKnight: (As in, despite being part Betazoid,
Blackthorne couldn't have known McKnight was thinking what he was thinking.)
CaptDougMcKnight: Johnson! Is he doing what I think he's doing?
CaptDougMcKnight: Techie Johnson> Yes, sir. Full impulse.
VAdm Blackthorne: Dockmaster>
::Speechless::
Lt TKirr: Approximately fourteen centimeters to
the right from center, Admiral. Impressive.
Kiley Airell: ::laughs:: you think you
went slow enough Admiral?
Lt Dakota Ellis: (ahh.. lol.. and here I thought it
was based on Tori's poilting skills in Gen.)
VAdm Blackthorne: What, next time you
want warp?
CaptDougMcKnight: ::Chuckles:: Remind me to buy that crazy son of
a bitch a gin and tonic.
VAdm Blackthorne: ::grinning::
Lt Dakota Ellis: ::picks up the crap she knocked
over:: One of these days I need to grow up before my son becomes an adult
before me
CaptDougMcKnight: Marine> But...we don't use money.
CaptDougMcKnight: ::Glares at the vexingly rational soldier::
Yeah, and remind me to buy you c nice cold can of shut the hell up.
Kiley Airell: Of course Admiral.
LMajAdamDrake: ::stares at the
readouts:: What the hell was that?
VAdm Blackthorne: I may be crazy, but
I'm not that cr- ::starts to think about the possibilities::
LMajAdamDrake: Full Impulse?
Lt TKirr: <<Think we should've had an all
hands message before moving.. something like, "Brace for...
impulse!">>
VAdm Blackthorne: ((I like slamming
people back in their seats))
8:15 PM
Lt TKirr: <<If they're IN seats>>
VAdm Blackthorne: ((That's not my
problem, now is it?))
Kiley Airell: ((Actually . . . it is . .
. you ARE the CO))
Lt TKirr: <<You're the Captain,
everything's your problem>>
VAdm Blackthorne: Fourteen
centimeters, huh?
VAdm Blackthorne: ((More like sickbay's
problem for fixing the bumps and bruises))
LMajAdamDrake: ::sighs:: And he wonders
why our ship is in the state it's in after a year in space. He does that shit.
::heads back to his office::
LMajAdamDrake: ::reads up on the mission
that he knows NOTHING about::
VAdm Blackthorne: Room for
improvement there.
8:20 PM
Kiley Airell: I'm surprised you were
that far off Admiral.
Lt Dakota Ellis: (must be some thrilling reading
then)
VAdm Blackthorne: Yes, two
centimeters is pretty far.
Kiley Airell: ::nods:: yes it is.
VAdm Blackthorne: I hope they
recorded that back at Spacedock, I'd like to see it.
LMajAdamDrake: Jeddin> ::comes in::
Sir?
LMajAdamDrake: Yes, Michael? ::looks
up::
LMajAdamDrake: Jeddin> Our systems
diagnostic reports. ::hands it to him.
LMajAdamDrake: ::takes it:: Thank you,
Captain. ::nods::
LMajAdamDrake: Jeddin> ::leaves::
Lt TKirr: <<Doubt that diagnostic is up to
date after that launch =P>>
Kiley Airell: ((my connection is pretty
bad right now))
Lt TKirr: <<Have Drake take a look at
it>>
Kiley Airell: ((LOL))
VAdm Blackthorne: ::stands up from
the helm and nods with satisfaction::
8:25 PM
CaptDougMcKnight: ::Grins to one of the techs:: Hey, call up the
recording from our forward imaging sensors. I wanna see those doors coming at
us.
Lt TKirr: ::begins to wonder if Markus was
purposefully not on the Bridge for launch::
LMajAdamDrake: ::stands up and moves into
engineering::
VAdm Blackthorne: Markus will eat his
hat when he hears about that.
Lt TKirr: ::frowns at the confusing expression::
Kiley Airell: ::laughs:: He'll be sorry
he wasn't here at the helm Sir.
VAdm Blackthorne: Aye, he certainly
will.
LMajAdamDrake: ::looks at the people
moving around doing their job:: Ah, back to the good old days.
VAdm Blackthorne: ::sits down in his
seat::
VAdm Blackthorne: It's good to be
home.
Lt TKirr: <<...I'd emote something, but
that'd be un-Vulcan-like of me.>>
8:30 PM
Kiley Airell: You definately seem happy
CaptDougMcKnight: ::Smiles as an image of Earth appears on the
sensor log on the way out of space dock:: We'll see each other again soon,
don't you worry.
VAdm Blackthorne: I don't think I'm
the only one.
Lt Dakota Ellis: (No more un-Valcan then Spock
telling starfleet to go to hell. lol)
Lt TKirr: <<Mm.. doesn't call for that
yet.>>
VAdm Blackthorne: ((Spock would only
have said that if he were human.))
LMajAdamDrake: Why don't we have
windows? I want a window. ::looks around the walls:: Can we just install one
right there? ::points directly next to the warp core on the wall behind it::
Lt TKirr: I am pleased to be back as well.
Kiley Airell: Yeah, it's nice to be
"home."
LMajAdamDrake: Jeddin> Don't think
so.
LMajAdamDrake: Come on. It'd be
something to this drab room. Bulkhead, terminal, warp core.
LMajAdamDrake: Jeddin> Blue ambience
not enough for you?
LMajAdamDrake: ::sighs:: Whatever.
Lt Dakota Ellis: (Maybe he's like green glow better)
VAdm Blackthorne: And so we're off to
work.
Lt TKirr: <<Ooh.. Romulanish.>>
VAdm Blackthorne: PAUSE SIM
VAdm Blackthorne: PAUSE SIM
VAdm Blackthorne: PAUSE SIM
Kiley Airell: ::paused::
8:35 PM
Lt TKirr: ::pauses::
LMajAdamDrake: ::pauses::
CaptDougMcKnight: ::pauses::
VAdm Blackthorne: Well, that's all
for tonight. Next week, a new mission begins!
LMajAdamDrake: Sweet! ::smiles::
Kiley Airell: woohoo
CaptDougMcKnight: Indeed.
Lt Dakota Ellis: night folks
CaptDougMcKnight: Night.
VAdm Blackthorne: Dismissed!
LMajAdamDrake: ::clears throat:: I mean,
