(21:26:09) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: walks in behind others on all fours, sniffing the air out of habit ::
(21:26:55) SCI_Ens_TLira: :: walks into the holodeck, wearing the least festive thing possible: traditional Vulcan robes in tan and pale green shades.::
(21:27:48) XO_Cdr_TKirr: :: rubs a hand down the softness of her chinille sweater, wondering at the fabric :: Blackthorne : This is a curious material. And where are we?
(21:27:59) CMO_Lt_Tav: :: boards the... what's it called again? Oh, yeah, elevator... to the top floor of the hotel where they are having the party, dressed in a tux. Still more comfortable than his dress uniform ::
(21:28:08) VAdmBlackthorne: :: hangs up the overcoat upon noting the warmth in the bubble atop the hotel :: This is New York City on Earth.
(21:30:14) VAdmBlackthorne: :: leads her over to the side :: T'Kirr: And that is Times Square.
(21:30:19) XO_Cdr_TKirr: Blackthorne: I am familiar with the city. This will have an excellent view, however, of Earth's religious proceeding of one year to the next?
(21:30:50) XO_Cdr_TKirr: :: keeps the sweater, not feeling the urge to shed it despite the temperature ::
(21:30:54) VAdmBlackthorne: T'Kirr: Well, it's hardly religious, just fun. They lower that giant crystal ball over the course of the last minute of the year.
(21:32:02) XO_Cdr_TKirr: :: notes T'Lira's dress and finds its familiarity pleasant, freeing her to give her attention to everything else ::
(21:32:22) XO_Cdr_TKirr: Blackthorne: Ah, yes. Fun.

(21:33:55) CSO_Lt_Wright: :: walks into the holodeck with a nervous lipsticked smile, wearing red kitten heels and a gauzy red dress that hits just above her knees in the front and flutters away behind her at a slightly greater length, fastened at the waist with a wide jeweled belt. She is carrying a tray of the famous Wright family rumballs. ::
(21:37:24) NAV_Cdr_Harper: :: enters with Wright, in the laced-bodice forest green dress she bought on Calaphaltra, trimmed in white lace with gold accents, looking like she belongs in a fantasy game ::
(21:38:38) SCI_Ens_TLira: :: takes the opportunity to observe a city she has never been in and promptly decides she will visit it next time she is on Earth. It appears... fascinating. ::
(21:40:52) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: bound up to Blackthorne and sits respectively :: Blacktorne: Sir? Permission to make noise here?
(21:40:57) CMO_Lt_Tav: :: Arrives on the roof, ready to party. He looks around at everyone assembled and smiles to himself. It's so nice to take an evening off with the crew to ring in the new year ::
(21:41:04) CSO_Lt_Wright: :: looks over at Kate, smiles nervously, and takes a rumball off her own tray and pops it in her mouth ::
(21:41:20) VAdmBlackthorne: :: smiles at Kuari :: Granted! Enjoy yourself.
(21:41:41) NAV_Cdr_Harper: Lexy: :: recognizes the place :: This is New York!
(21:41:52) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: squeaks in joy and runs to the side of the roof again ::
(21:42:15) CSO_Lt_Wright: Kate: It is, isn't it?
(21:42:43) NAV_Cdr_Harper: :: smiles knowingly to herself :: Yes, I had a good shore leave here once.
(21:42:52) CMO_Lt_Tav: :: walks over to the edge of the building to look out :: Self: It sure is beautiful. Humans do know how to make a city.
(21:43:09) XO_Cdr_TKirr: :: can hear the roar of people "celebrating" down below ::
(21:44:02) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack Cahalan> :: arrives at the scene with a tray of drinks of various sorts, and a single-malt set aside for the Admiral :: Here you are, sir.
(21:44:11) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack: Thanks, Jack, just what I wanted.
(21:44:22) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack> Drinks anyone?
(21:44:27) CSO_Lt_Wright: Kate: You'll have to tell me about it sometime. Shall we meander over to the bar?
(21:44:44) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: bellows loudly off the edge ::
(21:45:06) NAV_Cdr_Harper: :: nods eagerly :: Lexy: Perhaps that will help you relax a bit, yes? :: smirks ::
(21:45:41) VAdmBlackthorne: :: sips at the scotch ::
(21:45:45) CMO_Lt_Tav: :: walks over to the bar and waits patiently for Jack ::
(21:45:53) SCI_Ens_TLira: :: looks over at Kuari, a bit startled, but returns her gaze to the city below. Humans are indeed a very fascinating culture. ::

(21:46:58) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: curls over the edge and disappears ::
(21:48:30) CSO_Lt_Wright: Jack: Can I get a Midori sour? And would you like a rumball?
(21:48:52) XO_Cdr_TKirr: :: notices Kuari's tail disappear :: Blackthorne: I don't suppose when choosing this location you had Kuari in mind?
(21:49:14) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack> Oh, you brought those delectable rumballs again? Don't mind if I do, thank you! :: plucks one off the tray ::
(21:49:36) NAV_Cdr_Harper: Jack: Long Island Iced Tea, in honor of the location, please.

(21:52:03) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack> :: flashes his winning smile at the ladies, then turns to the yel: :: Tav: What can I get you, Doc?
(21:52:08) CMO_Lt_Tav: Jack: Could I get a Mai Tai and a Zombie #7?
(21:52:53) VAdmBlackthorne: Tav: You most certainly can!
(21:54:04) CMO_Lt_Tav: Jack: Oh, and could I get a shot of 2025 Anejo?
(21:54:14) CSO_Lt_Wright: :: offers her tray to others at the bar ::
(21:54:30) VAdmBlackthorne: T'Kirr: I didn't, but it's good for her to get to go out and fly sometimes, I'd imagine.
(21:55:00) SCI_Ens_TLira: :: walks over to the bar :: Jack: Do you have Altair water?
(21:55:01) CMO_Lt_Tav: :: takes a rumball :: Wright: Thank you! These are always delicious.

(21:55:26) CSO_Lt_Wright: :: smiles at Tav ::
(21:55:41) XO_Cdr_TKirr: Blackthorne: Indeed. She seems...less agitated in her duties.
(21:55:42) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack> Tav: Which brand Anejo? I don't have anything that old here, anyway... :: emphasizes the here ::
(21:56:28) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack> T'Lira: Of course. :: presents Tav with the two drinks he ordered, then gets the Altair water ::
(21:57:04) CMO_Lt_Tav: Jack: Hmm... How about some Pyrat Cask 1623, then?
(21:57:28) CSO_Lt_Wright: T'Lira: T'Lira, would you like to try a famous Wright family rumball?
(21:57:37) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack> Tav: C'mon Doc, you know I don't have the private store here with me...
(21:57:53) SCI_Ens_TLira: Wright: What is a... rumball?
(21:58:02) CMO_Lt_Tav: Jack: Hmm. Alright, how about Appleton Estate?
(21:58:05) NAV_Cdr_Harper: :: smirks a bit ::
(21:58:43) VAdmBlackthorne: Tav: Can do! :: hands T'Lira the Altair water and pours a shot of the Jamaican rum ::
(21:58:46) CSO_Lt_Wright: T'Lira: It is an old Earth dessert traditionally consumed at this time of year. It contains a mild intoxicant.
(21:59:21) NAV_Cdr_Harper: T'Lira: They're delicious!
(21:59:44) SCI_Ens_TLira: Jack: Thank you. :: lifts an eyebrow :: Wright: I believe I will. They appear... interesting.
(21:59:51) NAV_Cdr_Harper: :: sips her drink, enjoying the several mild intoxicants ::
(22:00:08) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack> :: hands the rum to Tav ::
(22:00:25) CSO_Lt_Wright: T'Lira: Please, be my guest. I hope you like them.
(22:00:27) CMO_Lt_Tav: :: takes the rum, sniffs it, and sips it :: Jack: Beautiful.
(22:00:47) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack> Tav: Isn't it? Fond of that one myself.
(22:01:18) SCI_Ens_TLira: :: picks up a rumball and peers at it before popping it in her mouth. It has a... different flavour. ::
(22:01:30) CSO_Lt_Wright: :: smiles hopefully ::
(22:02:01) VAdmBlackthorne: :: watches the Rucara fly around a bit ::
(22:02:34) CSO_Lt_Wright: Blackthorne: Admiral? T'Kirr? Can I interest you in a rumball?
(22:02:39) SCI_Ens_TLira: :: swallows :: Harper: You were correct. They are indeed agreeable. Wright: Thank you.
(22:02:49) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: lands on the edge of the roof, bellowing again loud and happy ::
(22:03:06) CMO_Lt_Tav: :: looks out as he sips his rum and spots Kuari right before she lands ::
(22:03:09) CSO_Lt_Wright: :: grins at T'Lira :: You're welcome! Have another, if you like, but do mind the intoxicant.
(22:03:11) VAdmBlackthorne: T'Kirr: Yeah, I think so.
(22:03:30) XO_Cdr_TKirr: Wright: I will partake of one.
(22:03:31) NAV_Cdr_Harper: :: minds her own intoxicants a bit more ::

(22:04:37) XO_Cdr_TKirr: :: eyes Blackthorne sidelong :: Blackthorne, quietly: It's polite, is it not? I will only have one.
(22:05:03) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: looks over at what the senior staff are up to ::
(22:05:18) VAdmBlackthorne: T'Kirr: :: also quietly :: Oh, yes, most certainly.
(22:06:25) SCI_Ens_TLira: :: sips the Altair water and observes the others, discreetly. This is a strange tradition. and she has always found it that way. Why celebrate a new year? It appears illogical, yet compelling. ::
(22:07:28) CSO_Lt_Wright: Admiral? :: holds out tray after T'Kirr plucks hers off ::
(22:08:02) VAdmBlackthorne: Thank you, Lieutenant. :: takes a rum ball and devours it, remembering last year ::

(22:08:15) CMO_Lt_Tav: :: finishes his shot and turns back to the bar :: Jack: What's the oldest whiskey you have, good sir?
(22:08:49) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack> Tav: That would be the scotch I keep on hand for the Admiral.

(22:09:04) VAdmBlackthorne: Wright: Delicious as always!
(22:09:20) CSO_Lt_Wright: :: beams with pride :: Thank you, Sir!
(22:09:45) CMO_Lt_Tav: :: looks over at the Admiral and back :: Hmm. Nah, What's the next one after that? I don't want to steal from his stock.
(22:09:53) VAdmBlackthorne: ACTION> The crowd noise below starts to perk up with only five minutes to midnight!
(22:10:13) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack> Tav: Wise. How about a 12 year old single malt?
(22:10:36) CMO_Lt_Tav: :: nods :: Jack: That sounds fantastic. I'll take it!
(22:10:53) VAdmBlackthorne: Jack> :: pours :: There you are, doc!
(22:10:58) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: trots over to everyone :: Have you guys seen the big ball down there? Are they worshiping it?
(22:11:23) VAdmBlackthorne: Kuari> It's an egg. It'll hatch at midnight.
(22:11:35) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: gasps in delight ::
(22:11:44) CSO_Lt_Wright: Kuari: No, not worshipping it. It's a symbol of the new year.
(22:11:47) CMO_Lt_Tav: :: raises the glass to toast Jack :: Jack: Thank you! :: turns to Kuari's question and the Admiral's answer :: Blackthorne: That's cruel, sir.

(22:52:26) MED_Cadet_TylerSlade: :: jerks straight up:: Blackthorne: Admiral Sir
(22:52:35) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: sits next to Tav, staring at Slade with big eyes ::
(22:53:30) CSO_Lt_Wright: :: groans :: And knowing you, he had plenty to tell you!
(22:54:02) CMO_Lt_Tav: Wright: Until I introduced myself. :: laughs uproariously ::
(22:54:06) VAdmBlackthorne: :: looks at Slade apologetically, having tried to stave it ooff ::
(22:54:08) MED_Cadet_TylerSlade: :: places his face in his palm:: Tav: with respect sir it was rather reckless
(22:54:42) CSO_Lt_Wright: Tav? Reckless? NEVER. :: dripping with sarcasm ::
(22:56:00) CSO_Lt_Wright: :: puts a sympathetic hand on Slade's arm :: I'm so, so sorry you got stuck with this one. :: jerks a thumb at Tav, grinning ::
(22:56:04) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: finds she has no idea what people are talking about, but doesn't really care ::
(22:56:16) CMO_Lt_Tav: Everyone: Opening your chute at 150 meters is not reckless when you know what you are doing and have the right chute. :: shrugs ::
(22:56:22) MED_Cadet_TylerSlade: : then realizing who I was talking to along with Lt Quinn I tried to remove myself from the situation and had to step straight back and find the only chair in 5 yards fall over it in land flat in my back after my bold statement to my new department head Day One!
(22:56:59) VAdmBlackthorne: :: chuckles :: Slade: Could have been worse.
(22:57:10) CSO_Lt_Wright: :: begins laughing so hard that she can't almost can't breathe ::
(22:57:18) MED_Cadet_TylerSlade: : it could have been you admiral:
(22:57:27) CMO_Lt_Tav: :: looks over to Kuari :: Kuari: Ah, Kuari. This is our new doctor to the team, Doctor Slade.
(22:57:52) MED_Cadet_TylerSlade: : that would have been much worse: :: raising his beer to his CO
(22:58:31) VAdmBlackthorne: True. :: raises his drink in reply ::
(22:58:37) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: looks from Tav to Slade and extends a paw :: Slade: Hello.
(22:58:55) NAV_Cdr_Harper: :: snickers at the story ::
(22:59:20) MED_Cadet_TylerSlade: :: extends his hand to the officer before him:: Kuari: A pleasure Lieutenant
(22:59:33) SEC_Lt_Kuari: :: doesn't resist sniffing Slade's hand ::
