Host CO_Ayidee says:
The Cherokee has been recalled to Starbase 33, apparently for an unusual reason.  We have been called to the Admiral's office to learn what role we will play in the upcoming anniversary celebrations for the Starbase.  Also, a number of ships are docked that are classics, from an old Constitution class on up to Akira and Nova Classes, all docked at the Civilian ports.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Begin Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  The corridors of the Starbase are being heavily decorated with celebratory banners.  Among the throngs of pedestrians are VIP's of several sorts, including high ranking Admirals and other high ranking officers in older uniforms.  Most of the VIP's are acting like the rest of the crowd, but the concentration is far beyond what one would expect.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::sitting behind her desk, waiting for the crew of the Cherokee to arrive::

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: chuckles as he passes a few female officers in what have to be the shortest skirts imaginable. ::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Exiting the Bridge, headed for the Starbase.::

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Self: I was definitely born in the wrong era.

OPS_Nash says:
::leaving her quarters after checking on her family, before going to see the ADM.::

Host XO_Worthington says:
::following after the CO:: CO: I wonder what the Admiral has in store for us.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::getting up from her desk, she walks over to the light buffet she has waiting for her crew.::

CMO_McDonald says:
:: Leaving sickbay after securing it and heading for the nearest airlock ::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
XO: I don't know.  I am guessing we are here for more than normal actions, based on where they've docked us.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: navigates his way through the Starbase's corridors, checking the bulkhead console to make sure he's going the right way before reaching the Admiral's office and hitting the door chime. ::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CTO:  Enter.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: after crossing the gangway he makes his way to the Admirals office and taps the call button on the Admirals office ::

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: steps inside the office and grins as he notices the Admiral has set up a little buffet in the corner. :: Admiral: You know, every time you end up feeding us I get the feeling that your trying to soften the blow for some really bad news.

OPS_Nash says:
::she arrives at the airlock, and she crosses over the threshold as she ventures onto the Starbase, she instinctively turns to the direction of the Admiral's office::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::turning she sees a gleam in the CTO's eyes::  CTO:  Now why would you think that?  After your last mission, you all deserve some good cooking!  ::grinning at him::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CMO:  Enter.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: enters the Admirals office :: Admiral. Good to see you again.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Enters the Starbase, looking about at what is going on.::  XO: Looks like they're making it a big deal.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: walks over and picks up a plate, putting some random food onto it as he continues to talk. :: Admiral: Well, seeing as how that mission ended, I might be joining those grilled fish filets there.  I doubt SFI is going to just let it pass.

OPS_Nash says:
::she arrives at the Admiral's office and she rings the chimes::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CMO:  Good to see you as well Doctor.  Please help yourself to some snacks.  ::eyeing the CTO::  The CTO seems to think I have ulterior motives in mind for feeding you.

Host XO_Worthington says:
CO: Nice, I wonder if we are getting any time off.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
OPS:  Enter.

OPS_Nash says:
::she enters the office::

CNS_Wells says:
::Just now getting off the COM with an irate female in a stew because she feels her boyfriend is ignoring her. Gets up from desk and looks himself over in the mirror:: Self: Why do they always come to you?  ::Checks his hair:: Self: Because you're the counselor, you lucky dog. ::Exits quarters realizing he is late, starts to run::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CTO:  You let me worry about SFI.  From what I have read, you are not at fault.

CMO_McDonald says:
Admiral. I have to agree with him. Every time you need to break bad news to us you do that.  
::grabs a small plate and puts some food on it, dropping his telepathic defenses ::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
XO: Depends.  Looking about, I'd almost prefer to be part of patrol duty than part of this celebration.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Admiral: Uh huh.  I seem to recall the crew getting a nice dinner at your place before the war started...and that mission to the New Organia Colony...oh, and what about that whole mess with the fake Cherokee?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::begins to laugh::  CTO:  Well, I guess I could station the Cherokee on the edge of the quadrant where nothing happens at all.  I know you would just love that!

CNS_Wells says:
::Races off the ship and through the station and arrives at the Admirals office:: Self: Nice going Mate, showing up late....and you probably look a mess with all the running. ::Rings chime::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CNS:  Enter.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: grins as he chews on a meatball before responding. :: Adm: Uh huh.  And we'd STILL manage to get into trouble.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Almost gets run over by the Counselor.::  CNS: Take it easy, you aren't that late.  Arriving with the Command Staff ensures that.  ::Enters as the door opens.::

Host XO_Worthington says:
::follows the CO and CNS in, noticing who has already arrived::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO/XO/CSN:  Please help yourself to a few snacks.  T'Sara made some of them herself and is looking forward to seeing her Uncles again.

CNS_Wells says:
::Enters. Looks at the Admiral with puppy dog eyes:: ADM: Sorry I'm late, Ma'am.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CTO:  It does seem to follow you around.  Perhaps it is you that trouble is seeking?

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: chuckles as he checks the time, wondering if Kandi has received the several dozen flowers he had delivered to her temporary quarters on the Cherokee. ::

Host XO_Worthington says:
Adm: Thank you Admiral. I look forward to seeing my favorite rug-rat as well.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CNS:  You are right on time Gary.  Help yourself to some refreshments.

CNS_Wells says:
::Sees CO:: CO: Thank you, Sir. I had a tough time getting out of my office.

OPS_Nash says:
::she looks at the table with food, she notices that there is some fresh veggies, she takes a few pieces of carrots, celery, and cauliflower::

CNS_Wells says:
ADM: Thank you, Ma'am. I could use a drink.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm: Thank you, how has she been?

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Admiral:  I have no idea what you’re talking about.  I only make sure my crewmates stay out of trouble.  If that means I have to jump into it with both feet, small price to pay.

CNS_Wells says:
::Goes and gets a drink::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ALL:  She has been almost running this place, trying to keep up with all of you.  Cleopatra finally gave up on her.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO/XO:  I was saying that trouble seems to be Mr. Hazzard’s middle name and it seems to follow the crew.  Would you agree?  ::grins with the devil in her eyes::
CMO:  Doctor, is there a vaccine we can give the CTO to get rid of trouble?

Host XO_Worthington says:
Adm/CO/CTO: It doesn't follow him as much as he just creates it himself.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Admiral: Oh no, don't even start getting them involved.  I have to deal with enough banter without you helping them Admiral.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ALL:  Ah, that is what I thought.  Any suggestions?

CMO_McDonald says:
Adm: No there isn't, He should transfer out of the Tactical department. Maybe to medical then there won't be so much trouble.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
All: I will remind those present that your physical and tactical annual evaluations are due.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CMO:  Heaven help his patients then.  ::roars with laughter::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm: I'd think more of an energy field, kind of like to repel magnetism.  Don't think an inoculation would work.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: chuckles :: Admiral: I would agree.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  Tio, I have something here I would for you to read.  ::she picks up the PADD and waits for him to take it from her;:

CNS_Wells says:
::Hears the last bit of the Admirals statement about Mark:: Adm:  ...and sometimes he has so many troubles they have a trickle down effect, I know I've had my share ::Smiles and drinks::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CTO:  Mark, aren't you glad we all love you?  Otherwise, you might be on a freighter instead of the Cherokee.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: turns to the CNS and grins. :: CNS: Speaking of which, I heard that you had to deal with that piece of G'alk Lawyer one on one.  Nice work coming out with your soul intact, buddy.

OPS_Nash says:
ALL:  If he keeps this up, I just may have to revive my holo-novel series "The Adventures of Treeboy".

Host Adm-Alexander says:
OPS:  This I have to read Kyleigh!  Send me the copies you have.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: takes a seat by the wall and grins. :: Admiral:  Oh, I'm feeling the love alright.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
OPS: Don't you dare!

CNS_Wells says:
::Gives him a look:: CTO: Thanks.

OPS_Nash says:
CTO:  Try me.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: looks at the CTO and pokes around in his head a second ::

OPS_Nash says:
ADM:  I'll do that when time permits, Admiral.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CNS: Seriously, Gary.  That’s not something I would even know how to handle without a hand Phaser.  That’s why they need officers like you with us.  Sometimes...

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Takes the PADD, looking over the data on it.::  Adm: This is what we were recalled for?  Isn't there something a bit less hazardous to do, like maybe invading a Klingon strong hold?

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: stares at the doctor for a minute. :: CMO: What are you staring at, sir?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::grins at Tio::  CO:  That could be arranged.

CNS_Wells says:
CTO: Yeah, sometimes a brain can work better than muscle.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: whispers in the CTO's head :: ~~~Wake up Mister~~~

Host XO_Worthington says:
::looks around the room, just happy to not have to deal with SFI or the Ferengi for a minute::

CNS_Wells says:
::Hears the CO and is curious what he was reading on the PADD::

CMO_McDonald says:
CTO: Seriously Okay I'm sorry. I just couldn't resist. .

Host Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  Trent, how have you been?  You are looking well.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
::stands up and drops the plate of food as he walks up to the Doctor. :: CMO: Doc, I don't know you from Adam.  And I really hope that you read my personal file.  You'll know why I don't want people in my head.    Bad things happened to me.  So...apology accepted.

Host XO_Worthington says:
Adm: I have been ok, thanks. Any news on the LoDuca front? Seems like SFI is being pretty tight lipped?

CMO_McDonald says:
CTO: I have read your file. Odd that it would happen with scans.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  We will discuss that later.  Today, I want you to relax and enjoy yourself.  Time enough later for LoDuca.

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan stands at the door of the Admirals office and wonders if he should knock::

CNS_Wells says:
CMO: Mr. Hazzard’s situation is delicate. I've been treating him both physically as well as mentally for quite awhile now. He's my most interesting patient.  ::Smiles at CTO::

Host XO_Worthington says:
Adm: Yes Admiral. Anyways, how have things been here?

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
::sighs :: CMO: Doc, I had my life taken from me.  Someone monkey'd with my mind and I almost killed a respected member of the crew and a very good friend.  You didn't know about that part so its nothing to get upset about.  Just understand that the whole talking in another mind thing, makes me antsy.

OPS_Nash says:
::shudders at the mere mention of the name LoDuca.::

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan rings the chime::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CIV:  Enter.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: looks at the CNS. :: CNS: I can't think of anyone else I'd trust with my mental parts.

CMO_McDonald says:
CNS: I will have to read your reports then.

CNS_Wells says:
::Laughs with CTO::

CMO_McDonald says:
CTO: Understood, I was once in a similar situation at another assignment.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: walks away from the both of them as he looks over to the window, looking out amongst the stars as he picks  up his glass again, glad that the plate of food had made the table as he wouldn't want mess up her carpet. ::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  Busy as always Trent.  SFI had a few things to say about your prisoner.

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan enters and stands near the back of the Admirals office::

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
::Enters the room behind the CIV.  Ambrose is a bear of a man with thick red hair that was once a deep red, although most of it has gone grey over the years.  He wears an old uniform, at least 30 years out of date.::  Adm: Has everyone arrived?

CNS_Wells says:
CMO: Anytime.

Host XO_Worthington says:
::hears SFI and can't help but cringe:: Adm: I'll bet.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: turns to face the newcomers, noting the second odd uniform of the day.  Wondering just what is going on onboard the Starbase. ::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CIV:  Welcome to Starbase 33.  I hope you will enjoy your stay on the Cherokee.  Please help yourself to the snacks.

CNS_Wells says:
::Looks around. There are definitely people here he don't know.  Gets another drink::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Capt_Ambrose:  Yes, everyone is here.  
ALL:  I would like to introduce you to the first Captain of the Cherokee, some 30 years ago.

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
Adm-Alexander: Thank you ma'am ::he continues to stand in the back::

OPS_Nash says:
::she is taking her time eating the food she first got upon entering.::

CMO_McDonald says:
:: lets himself soak things in ::

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
All: If you could all find yourselves a seat, we can get this started.  First though, I'd like to say it's great to see the ship still in operation after all this time.

OPS_Nash says:
::she sits down in a nearby seat.::

Host XO_Worthington says:
::curious as to what is going on, takes a seat::

CNS_Wells says:
::Looks around and is impressed to be in such company as the first Cherokee CO::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::walks behind her desk and takes a seat::

CNS_Wells says:
::Finds a spot to be and sits::

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan pulls up a chair and sits::

CMO_McDonald says:
:: grabs a seat near the back and recreates the telepathic wall in his mind ::

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: finds a seat by the back of the room, crossing his arms as he waits to hear what the new/old Captain has to say. ::

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
All: First, let me introduce myself, I'm George, George Ambrose.  Starfleet Captain, and very briefly an Admiral, retired Stardate 10001.25.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: raises an eyebrow at the "briefly an admiral" bit. ::

Host XO_Worthington says:
::remembers how he was briefly an Admiral too::

CNS_Wells says:
::Listens intently::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
~~~CTO:  Be nice Mark.~~~

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: winces as the Admiral seem to still forget about the whole mental volume thing,  fighting the urge to ringing out his ear. ::

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan crosses his legs::

CMO_McDonald says:
:: tweaks his head to the side on that admiral comment ::

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
All: You are probably wondering why you've all been called here, and what we're going to ask of you.  Well, quite simply, the Cherokee has the unique honor of being the only ship in service which has been assigned to Starbase 33 for the Starbase’s entire career.  That gives your ship, and you, a place of honor in the upcoming celebration.

CNS_Wells says:
::Smiles:: Self: Cool.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: slowly starts putting the pieces together, and suddenly has the mental image of being a tour guide, to several thousand civilians through his ship. :: Self: Oh no.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Smiles to herself, proud of her crew and ship::

OPS_Nash says:
::smiles as that little tidbit of info is revealed::

CMO_McDonald says:
::still curious as to why they were recalled.::

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::he just got there, so he knows that he doesn't figure into the count::

CNS_Wells says:
::Wonders why Ayidee compared that to hazardous work with Klingons. Gives up wondering in exchange for draining his glass::

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
All: There will be a row of ships, of which you will be the center piece.  These ships will attempt to show how Starfleet has changed over the years, and how it has not.  During the next few days we will work out a plan, including security arrangements.

Host XO_Worthington says:
Self: Wow, this should be exciting. So much better than shore leave.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: has his reservations ::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::turns and smiles at the XO::

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: raises his hand at the security arrangements part. ::

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
CTO: Yes Commander?

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::thinks to himself:: Self: I never did like dog and pony shows.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Capt_Ambrose:  Sir, are we actually going to let Civilians on board the vessels during this celebration?  And if so, will Starbase Security be augmenting my security teams?  You'll forgive me if I'm a bit paranoid.

CNS_Wells says:
CTO: Don't let no one go in my room. I ain’t made my bed.

OPS_Nash says:
::feeling some movement from within, she fidgets slightly in her seat.::

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CNS: You think I want them in MY room?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::tries not to giggle at the CNS, but can't help herself::

CNS_Wells says:
::Goes to get a refill::

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan gives the CTO  a stern look at the "civilian" comment::

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: looks over at the CIV. :: CIV: You've served before, you’re exempt.

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
CTO: You will be assigned additional security, and the tours on active ships will be limited in where they can go.  VIP tours will be a bit more extensive, but most will be limited to the Bridge, which will be computer locked out, Engineering, Shuttle Bay, Conference Rooms, and the ship's Lounge.  Maybe an empty quarters or two, but not much more.

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::looks back with a smile:: CTO: Yes, I'm an old retired 37 year old SFI Captain.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Capt_Ambrose: Thank you sir.  Just not looking forward to explaining repeatedly that you can't go inside the Warp Core.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: nods to the Captain. :: Capt_Ambrose: Good. I don't want anyone near sickbay.

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
CMO: Sickbay may be included, although with the Hook on the tour, it probably won't be needed.

CNS_Wells says:
::Returns to his seat with drink and a handful of something crunchy to eat::

CMO_McDonald says:
Capt: I have some experiments in my labs there that I would rather NOT have on tour. Just in case someone decides to mess them up

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::looks over at the CMO: You always have some kind of an experiment going on your sickbay Mr. McDonald!

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CMO:  I am sure Mark's security personnel will be able to handle any problem that might arise.

CMO_McDonald says:
Adm: I hope so

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
CMO: The Admiral is correct.  Sensitive areas will be locked off.  Like a museum, but the "velvet ropes" will be powered.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: Leans over to the CIV: Only way to keep people out of sickbay. SHHH, don't tell anyone.

CNS_Wells says:
Capt_Ambrose: You can send anyone to visit me, I'm up for guests.  I'll serve drinks and these crunchy things.

OPS_Nash says:
::chuckles at the CNS for some reason.::

Host XO_Worthington says:
::whispers:: CTO: I wonder who is in charge of installing the slot machines for the old folk?

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CMO: Think I should use that since I am former SFI my quarters are off limits due to classified things that I keep in there? ::laughs very low::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Capt_Ambrose:  Where will the assignments be posted, or shall they come here to my office?

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
CNS: I'm sure we'll find a place for you all on the tour.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
::whispers :: XO: I've got Miller and Kilbrowski setting up a Bingo hall in Shuttlebay 2.  That way if they get to rowdy we can open the Shuttlebay door and start from scratch with a new bunch.

CMO_McDonald says:
CIV: I can arrange that for you.

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
Adm: We'll go through the normal COC, contact the ship's Captains and they can send the requests down the line.  I don't want to mess with normal ops more than we need to.

Host XO_Worthington says:
::whispers:: CTO: Sounds like a plan, just don't forget the shuffleboard or we will never hear the end of it.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: acts like he's writing down something on his PADD. :: XO: Right, got it.

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CMO: Think Maybe I should use that comment with the XO too ::smiles::

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: grins as he raises his hand once more. ::

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
All: We are, of course, open to suggestions if anyone has any ideas on what would make the tour interesting.  If you have any ideas, bring them to your Captain and he can get them to me.

CMO_McDonald says:
CIV: That would work. Its so good serving on a new ship with someone I know

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
CTO: Yes Commander?

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CMO: Don't you know the Captain as well?

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Capt_Ambrose:  Are you still looking for personnel to assist with the USS Victory?  I'm kind of a nut for that era of Starfleet and would be honored if I could assist with her part of the celebration.

CMO_McDonald says:
CIV: Yes. I served with him on the Huron when I first came outta the academy.

OPS_Nash says:
::she is just listening as things are being discussed.::

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
CTO: There are a few ships looking for assistance, but the Victory is set.  This is what they do, day in and day out.  Of course active members get the extra special tour.

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CMO: I'm surprised that you'd want to associate yourself with me, knowing that the crew doesn't trust me and all being a former agent for Star Fleet Intelligence

CMO_McDonald says:
CIV: I've done some work with SFI in the past for various reasons, which of course are classified. I don't mind.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: nods and makes a point to remind himself to take Kandi onboard. ::

CNS_Wells says:
::Thinks this all sounds like fun::

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
All: Any other questions about what's going on?  Guided tours of each ship will be available for all crews taking part in this, away from the prying eyes of the crowds.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Capt_Ambrose: Captain, are we going to be expected to participate in the "Heritage" Uniform program as well?

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
CTO: You will wear your current uniforms, as your ship is one of the active duty vessels.

Host XO_Worthington says:
CTO: Sorry Commander, you don't get to wear that short skirt like you wanted to.

OPS_Nash says:
Self:  Good, it'll be hard to find maternity "old uniforms".

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CMO: Sounds good.

CNS_Wells says:
CTO: No fashion show.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: Don't get jealous because you know I look better in it anyway.

Host XO_Worthington says:
CTO: Umm, did you confuse me with Commander Nash again?

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
::Smiles.::  All: Anything else?  If not, then I'll turn you back over to your normal Command Staff and move on to the next crew?

CNS_Wells says:
XO/CO: You two in skirts. Might make me go back and give Kandi another try.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Capt_Ambrose:  George, thank you for stopping by.  I am sure there will be questions later.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: No, that would be impossible to do.  He's way taller and manly, and your, umm. :: looks at the window. :: XO: Oh look they have an old Soyuz class ship out there.

Host XO_Worthington says:
CNS: Hey, I didn't lose any bet.

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
All: If there are any, as I said just pass them up the CoC.

CNS_Wells says:
::Laughs::

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CNS: Hey.  You had your chance with her.  She's mine now.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: chuckles under his breath ::

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
All: Thank you for your time.  ::Steps away from the front of the room, checking PADD on his way to the door.::

Host XO_Worthington says:
CTO: I can't believe I was insulted by a "man" who wore a pink tutu and dumps oatmeal on others. Remember, revenge is a dish best served cold.

CNS_Wells says:
CTO: Dude, I gave her to you, practically had to shove her in your lap, remember?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CTO:  I am sure Ms. Chase will love to hear this conversation.

CNS_Wells says:
Capt_Ambrose: Thank you, Sir.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
ALL: And when was it decided that the "Pick on your CTO" Hour would continue?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ALL:  Attention!

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: And it wasn't a pink tutu.  It was a pink nightgown from those deviants in Sickbay.

OPS_Nash says:
::she tries to hide a smirk at the XO last comment.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
All: Take your time and enjoy the meal.  But give some thought to the ceremony.  Any ideas, bring them up to me.  ::Snaps to attention.::

CNS_Wells says:
ADM: She shouldn't be my problem anymore but, do you wanna know why I was late?

CMO_McDonald says:
:: looks at the Admiral and snaps to ::

Host XO_Worthington says:
ALL: Well, if you look at the history of many cultures, historically the weakest of the herd was always picked on.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: turns right around at the admiral's command. ::

OPS_Nash says:
::she focuses her attention to the Admiral.::

Host XO_Worthington says:
::snaps to attention::

CNS_Wells says:
ADM: Twenty minutes on the COM with her about him. ::Points to CTO and goes to attention::

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: gulps as he hears the CNS's comment. :: Self: Oh wonderful.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ALL:  Please thank the Captain for his time and your less than sterling attention.  ::frowns at her crew::

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::snaps too, but really doesn't know, he's just a civilian::

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: turns to Captain Ambrose :: Capt_Ambrose: Thank you Captain.

CNS_Wells says:
Capt_Ambrose: It was a pleasure to meet you, Sir. And forgive our excitement, we have rarely had opportunity as of late to celebrate and I guess we got carried away.

Host XO_Worthington says:
Capt_Ambrose: Thank you for your briefing.

OPS_Nash says:
Capt_Ambrose:  Thank you, that was very informative.

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
Capt_Ambrose: Thank you, it was very...interesting.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: nods to  Captain Ambrose ::

Host Capt_Ambrose says:
All: Thank you all as well.  Hope you enjoy the ceremonies.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Capt_Ambrose:  Thank you again for coming.  Please excuse my crew as they have come back from a very stressful mission.

CNS_Wells says:
Capt_Ambrose: Thank you, I'm sure we will and if there is anything I can do to help...
::Shuts up now::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  Captain Ambrose leaves the Admiral's office.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ALL:  I am very disappointed in your lack of manners.  This is a very important time for Starbase 33 and the Cherokee.

CNS_Wells says:
::Lowers his head::

Host XO_Worthington says:
Adm: My apologies Admiral, this crew has been though a lot lately. I know that is no excuse.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ALL:  Perhaps we should adjourn and return to the Cherokee and think about our actions today.

OPS_Nash says:
::is confused, she was focused on Capt. Ambrose all the time except when she had to adjust how she was sitting.::

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: raises his eyebrow at the way he's being spoken to. :: Admiral: Pardon me, ma'am?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
OPS:  Perhaps you could stay for a while.  I know I would love to see the twins and T'Sara has been asking about them.

Host XO_Worthington says:
Adm: It was my fault Admiral, I should have set a better example for my crew.

OPS_Nash says:
ADM:  All right.

CNS_Wells says:
::Gets up to leave:: ADM: Sorry, Ma'am.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  I know the crew are tired and need some rest.  This might be a good time and a good way to finish the day.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: looks over to the CNS :: CNS: Was Kandi really that miffed at me, Gary?

CNS_Wells says:
CTO: I'm not sure its me you need to talk too. 

CMO_McDonald says:
:: nods to the Admiral ::

Host XO_Worthington says:
Adm: That would be very nice. If you like, I will work on the celebration in my spare time to make up for it.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ALL:  I will see you tomorrow.  Have a restful night.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: sighs and knocks his head on the bulkhead of the office lightly. :: CNS: That woman is going to drive me berserk.  Honestly.  I have no clue what I did to tick her off this bad.

CNS_Wells says:
CTO: But, I wouldn't exactly say mad, she's more...ummm...put out, by your actions.

OPS_Nash says:
::she stands up and stretches before heading back home.::

CNS_Wells says:
CTO: Sounds like you two could benefit from some couples counseling.

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CMO: I'm just a civilian, think she meant me as well?

CNS_Wells says:
CTO: But, not with me.

CMO_McDonald says:
CIV: I'm not sure.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CNS: You'll forgive me Gary, but I spend enough time in your office trying to pick myself back together again after what happened.

CTO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CNS: By the way, if I haven’t thanked you before for sticking with me and trying to help, thanks.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  Go and enjoy your time off tonight.  There will be plenty to do tomorrow.

CNS_Wells says:
CTO: You're welcome.

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CMO: I think I had better return to the ship, she might tell my wife on me. Besides, it wouldn't look good for an Admiral's son to be disrespectful.

Host XO_Worthington says:
Adm: Aye. ::exits the Admiral's office, happy he didn't fall asleep when the old man was talking. That would have made things worse.

CMO_McDonald says:
CIV: I would agree. I'll go back with you :: stands up and starts to head out of the Admirals office ::

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::walks out with the doctor::
