<Liam/Kiandra>  ::cheer::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@*CNS*: There is a bar on the Promenade, I am meeting with some of the crew for a drink and would like you to meet us there.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@<T'Sara>:: draws herself up, ready to blast him::  Caleb:  My ears aren't funny!  They happen to be Vulcan ears, that can hear better than other people's ears!

@:: Takes the young girls hand and shakes it ::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@*FCO*: Ensign, what is your status?

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
Twins:  Now you two, go get you shoes.

CMO_McDonald says:
@Caleb: Now apologize to T'Sara.

CNS_Wells says:
@::Gets up from his seat and abruptly gathers his materials:: Self: Grrrr!

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@T'Sara:  Put him down this instant! ::frowning at her daughter::

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
@aXO: Thank you. ::pours herself a glass of water before sitting and taking a sip, then looking up at the aXO::

Caleb_McDonald says:
@CMO: Okay. :: feels himself lift off the ground :: DADDDYYYY!

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
@*aCO*: Idle sir

CNS_Wells says:
@::He checks out some of the books with the helpful Librarian:: Librarian: I'm sorry I can't stay. Can I get these to go?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@<T'Sara> Admiral:  Well, he was rude, but if I have to.  ::slowly lowers him to the floor::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@*FCO*: Care to meet up with us for a drink? Some of the crew are meeting in the Promenade.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::the Twins gets their shoes and when Kyleigh went to put them on their feet, Liam complained because he wanted to do it.  She let him while she put Kiandra's shoes on her.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@CEO: Okay, first off, have you registered your department access codes with the ship's computer?

CMO_McDonald says:
@:: Looks at T'Sara :: T'Sara: Please put my son down :: looks directly into the young woman’s eyes :: ~~~T'Sara: That is not acceptable.~~~

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
@*aCO*: I am there too. I am entering the silk shop to buy something nice, then will I join you. Where are you?

Caleb_McDonald says:
@:: feels himself land on solid footings and cowers in behind his dad :: CMO: Daddy! She's mean!

CNS_Wells says:
@<Librarian>: CNS: Of course, Commander ::She takes the volumes and inputs some data at her console, downloading the contents onto several PADDs that she hands back to the CNS::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@<T'Sara> Admiral:  Mommy, I thought you said it was impolite for someone to speak mentally without having asked permission?

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@*FCO*: I am making my way there now. I will see you soon.

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
@aXO: Yes of course ::nods smiling::

CNS_Wells says:
@Librarian: Thanks, every so much, Miss. ::Takes up his things and exits library::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@::quickly she turns her head to Lennier::  CMO:  I have taught my daughter not to speak mentally to anyone without permission.  I am assuming you just spoke to her?

CMO_McDonald says:
@ADM: I apologize. Sometimes It’s best to use actions to get peoples attentions. :: looks sternly at the young lady.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
<Liam>  OPS:  Okay, done.  ::he smiles proudly::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@:: takes his own glass and fills it, taking a slow sip and continuing on. :: CEO: Excellent.  I see hear you've been cleared on the Type 1 and 2 hand held phasers.  When was the last time you were run through a Repel Boarders Simulation?

CMO_McDonald says:
@ADM: Yes I did, I too have taught my son that. I feel sometimes it gets the point across with more punch.. Forgive me.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@::arriving at the bar he meets with a few other officers and they step over to the bar:: Bartender: Can we get some drinks over here?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@Caleb/T'Sara:  Ok, both of you.  Either you decide to play nicely, or T'Sara, you may go take a nap.  
CMO:  Doctor, I will leave disciplining your son to you.

CMO_McDonald says:
@Caleb: Now If you think you can go play nicely you can.  Do you think you can?

Caleb_McDonald says:
@CMO: Yes Daddy! I'll behave.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::seeing that Liam put the shoes on the wrong feet. she smiles::  Liam:  You can walk better with the shoes on the other feet.  Here let me show you.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@T'Sara:  Well?

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
@aXO: As you know I am not long out of Academy, I have lost count of the number I took part in there, but it was only a matter of a couple of weeks before my posting with the Cherokee ::takes another sip::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
@::Went into the shop and bought some Páýcolade silk for his mother.::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
<Liam>  OPS:  I wanna do it!!  ::he says with a pouty look::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@<Bartender> aCO: Sure thing, what will you have?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@<T'Sara>  ~~~Adm:  Well, he wasn't very nice, but yes, I would rather stay here an play.~~~

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
@::Comes out and waits for the aCO:: @*aCO: Outside the shop sir.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@CMO:  Why don't we take a short walk, and let them become acquainted on their own?

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@Bartender: Whiskey, straight. ::Sees the FCO and waves him over to the bar::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
Liam:  Okay, you do it, then we will go to that fun place.

CNS_Wells says:
@Arriving at the designated meeting place, he spots a group of patrons in uniform:: Self: Must be the place.

CMO_McDonald says:
@ADM: I would agree. Caleb. Now you behave. If I hear any more nonsense, No play time when we get back to the Cherokee. Right to bed with you.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
<Liam>  ::he smiles as he puts the shoes on the right feet::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@:: nods, relaxing a little as he continues. :: CEO: Trust me.  I still remember being put through my places during my time at the academy.  They wore me out more times then I care to remember myself.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
@::The FCO remembered he passed a small bar.:: *aCO: Sir are you in that bar with the green-blue light?

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
@::smiles, thinking the aXO has much better control of himself this time::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
Liam:  Good going.  Now lets head to the station.  ::they all leave their quarters and head for the station, Liam on one side and Kiandra on the other, walking down the corridor to the airlock.::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@*FCO*: Yeah, you got it. ::sees the CNS and waves him over::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
@*aCO*: Roger that, I know where it is. Be right over.

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
@aXO: Oh, they sure put me through my paces ::smiles::

CNS_Wells says:
@::Sees Commander Worthington and approaches:: aCO: I guess this is an interesting place for a meeting, huh? ::Looks around::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@CMO:  I had planned a light lunch here in the office, but perhaps we can find a place to eat on the promenade?

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
@::The FCO thinks which way it was, and walks in one direction. He finds the bar after a few minutes, including  his fellow crew-members.::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@CNS: It will do. ::points to the bartender:: What can I get you?

CMO_McDonald says:
@ADM: I would agree. the kids will play nicely I think.

CNS_Wells says:
@::Places a heavy book bag down on a stool::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Jones> Admiral:  I will look after them Ma’am.  Go have lunch and relax for a change!

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
Twins:  Okay you two, this place has a lot of strangers, stay close to me.

CNS_Wells says:
Barkeep/aCO: Coffee, please. Strong!
FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
All crewmembers at the bar: Hello. I am happy to find you over here.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: slips a bit :: CEO: Well you certain seem to have handled your places well.  :: grins as he sips his water. ::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  A visitor to the station, in a rush, doesn't see the twins and almost knocks Liam down.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
FCO: What are you having to drink?

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
aCO: Tea please. Black.

CNS_Wells says:
aCO: So, what's this all about or, do you want to wait until the others arrive?

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
Visitor: Hey!!!! Watch where you are going, you almost knocked my son down.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
Bartender: Tea for my friend and another whiskey.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Visitor> OPS:  Oh, I am so sorry, but I am late for my transport!

CNS_Wells says:
::Acknowledges the FCO:: FCO: Hello. ::Looks back to aCO::

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
aXO: Yes, I suppose I did, it got me the posting I was after. And I have to say, I enjoyed being constantly tested, I do enjoy a challenge ::laughs lightly::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::she is trying to comfort Liam.::   Visitor:  Well, you should of left earlier!

Host aCO_Worthington says:
CNS: Well, the trial will start soon. I figured we could all enjoy a little fun before hand.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
aCO: No alcohol for me. I think I had enough as a student and cadet. ::Nods friendly towards the CNS.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CMO:  Look here. ::she points into the restaurant window::  Do those faces look familiar?

CNS_Wells says:
::Looks puzzled?:: aCO: Fun, Sir?

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: chuckles as he goes over the PADD once more. :: CEO: Trust me.  Cherokee will test you to the limits sometimes.  I'll make sure you aren't bored.  Even If I have to see to it personally.

CMO_McDonald says:
Adm: Vaguely but I can't put it where I know them.

CNS_Wells says:
aCO: I thought this was a briefing of some kind.  It's a social thing then. Is that it?

Host aCO_Worthington says:
CNS: Yes fun. A good prescription for any occasion.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CMO:  Let's go see what everyone is up to!  ::walking in she sees almost the entire senior staff at the bar;:

Host aCO_Worthington says:
FCO: So Ensign, how do you like the Cherokee?

CMO_McDonald says:
:: walks in behind the Admiral and notices its the Senior staff ::

CNS_Wells says:
Self/aCO: Oh.

CNS_Wells says:
::Thinking about all the heavy reading he has to do, he was having fun, kinda.  Takes his coffee and sips it::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::they walk through the Promenade, and they go past the bar they look for the family fun place.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::walks over to the bar::  ALL:  Hello everyone.  Can a tired Admiral join the group?

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
::smiles reminding herself she really needs to see the CMO about those stronger suppressants:: aXO: Well, then I am sure that I am going to enjoy my position here as much as I had hoped. Being pushed to my limits is a sure way to keep me ... motivated and entertained.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
::sees the Admiral, not exactly what he had expected:: Adm: Of course, please join us.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: walks behind the Admiral and nods to the crew ::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
aCO: Hehe, that is a good question. It was a good practice for me as a cadet. I took the job as there as an opportunity to join this ship and crew after my graduation. I like it very much, but, I must confess, I do not like the stress  lately on this ship.

CNS_Wells says:
::Takes his cup and finds a table close by. Sets the cup down and sits placing his book bag beside his chair::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::hopes that the crew will NOT bring up the subject of the court martial.  It would totally inappropriate to do so.::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
FCO: That is understandable but it comes with the job. CNS: Wouldn't you agree?

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: leans back in his chair for a moment, then clears his throat.  :: CEO: Well, I for one am sure you’re going to perform to the best of your ability.  But for now, I want you to take advantage of the time off and take a few minutes to join the crew down on the Promenade.  Commander Worthington and a few other officers should already be there.

CNS_Wells says:
aCO: Aye, Sir. If there were no stress in it, I'd have no job.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
aCO:  Fruit juice for me please.  The CMO and I were going to have a light lunch if anyone would like to join us, but do not feel obligated to do so.  ::she smiles at each of them::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
CNS: Has anyone told you what an eternal optimist you are? ::laughs::

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
::nods, smiling before draining her glass of water, the remaining ice clinking as she sets it down:: aXO Thank you sir, will you be joining the group also?

CNS_Wells says:
::Takes out one of the PADDs as he sips his cup::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
<Kiandra>  OPS:   Mommy, I'm tired.  ::she looks up at her mother with her tired face, the pigtails make the picture even more special::

CNS_Wells says:
aCO: I try Sir, god knows I try ::Laughs::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CEO: That is my intention...but I have a few errands to take care of first, so I should be along a little later on.  Dismissed, Ensign.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::Scratching his forehead.:: All: Yes, but I would like it to be over and the captain on his chair again. But er, who know what the outcome is? And I am not sure, what I should tell them, if I have to testify. Because I’ve been on this ship a very short time. ::Sipping on the just received tea.::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
Kiandra:  Okay, we'll sit here a few minutes and rest.  ::they sit on the chairs near the entrance to the bar.::

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
aXO: Thank you. ::rises from her seat and makes her way out of the office::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
FCO: Just tell them the truth, that is all that matters.

CNS_Wells says:
FCO: Best course of action is the truth, Ensign.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: resists the urge to watch her leave, waiting till the doors close before taking the pitcher of ice cold water, moving his chair back and then pouring the entire amount into his lap, shivering from the cold. ::

CNS_Wells says:
::Looks at the aCO:: aCO: See you don't need me ::Smiles and opens his PADD to where he had left off::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
aXO, CNS: I am not going to lie anyway. Would not make sense.

CNS_Wells says:
FCO: Laying off on the alcohol and drugs before you testify might be a good idea too.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
CNS/FCO: Depends if it is your trial or not. ::smiling::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: takes a moment to compose himself, taking out the duffel bag from his quarters he brought with him and changing into a dry uniform.  Shaking his head as he knows he's going to have to talk to the CMO about some sort of nasal depressant.  :: Self: A Deltan Engineer.  Yep, it’s confirmed.  The Creator is a woman.

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
::stops in the corridor, turning back toward the Cherokee to quickly go and check what the Starbase EO is up to::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
CNS: Vodka yes, but only the self burned one. But drugs? Yakki, never used that stuff. That makes your brain turn hollow in the end.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: nods to the Admiral ::

CNS_Wells says:
aCO: Agreed. We should send the Captain a bottle.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
*aCO*: Commander, CEO is checked out and I am wrapping up here.  I should be there shortly.

CNS_Wells says:
FCO: Well then don't let the Doctor near you. He likes to fire his hypo and ask questions later.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
*aXO*: We will still be here, unless we decide to go break the Captain out, or give him whiskey, we haven't decided.

CNS_Wells says:
::Starts to read::

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
::rushing towards the Cherokee:: Self: I'll get him onto checking out the Phaser arrays if nothing further needs doing with the impulse system.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
::finishes dressing into the dry uniform and walks out of the door, heading to the Promenade.:: *aCO*: You know, I don’t think we've done a jailbreak before, sir.  I do believe that’s a necessity in a Starfleet Career.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
All: muwhahahahaha, hihihih, Yes I have noticed that. He did put different things in that hypo then he said he did.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
ALL: I don't trust Doctors. Anyone who takes pleasure in others pain is weird in my book.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ALL:  Excuse me, I just received a call.  I need to leave.  ::she hurriedly leaves the crew and the bar::

CMO_McDonald says:
ACO: I only enjoy it when its someone else I don't like. Its part of the oath we take. Do no harm to others and cure the pain of others.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: makes his way to the bar the aCO mentioned, walking in and observing the crew, not making his presence known as of yet. ::

CNS_Wells says:
aCO: Any Doctor who takes pleasure from pain is not a Doctor. I hope I am exempt from your feelings on those in the medical profession, Sir. ::Smiles::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
CNS: But, I was so nervously, I think that made me like to eat the cookies. I just turned into the cookie-monster. Which tells me, to open this bag of a tea biscuit. Hehe.

Host aCO_Worthington says:

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: turns around and notices the CEO entering, nodding to her and turning around and downing the brandy in one shot.  Coughing a bit as the harsh liquid, even in its synthahol version, burns his throat. ::

Admiral:  Sure, lead on

Host aCO_Worthington says:

::Kyleigh and the twins follow the Admiral::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
<Bartender>aCO: Sir your whiskey.

:: smiles with that news ::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
ALL: I'm sure I speak for Commander Worthington, well, actually that would be a first considering our history.  But I think today we are in agreement.  We could have no finer crew, no finer ship.  I'm proud to say that I serve on board the Cherokee, among Starfleet's finest.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::turning she grins at the CMO:  CMO:  Looks like we just needed to leave them alone.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::watches as the twins join the others::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: takes another sip of his drink and nods to everyone, making his public appearance and slowly fades into the background and finds a seat near the back. ::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
OPS/CMO:  I am famished, shall we eat?

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
Twins: Now go play, and in a few minutes, we'll all have something to eat.

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
::joins in the FCO's toast, sipping her champagne::

CNS_Wells says:
::Goes to the nearest communications terminal on the station::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::taking her food back to the couch, she sits down and waits for the others to join her::  OPS:  Should we let the children help themselves?

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: takes a long sip from his glass, leaning further into the shadows. ::

CMO_McDonald says:
:: sits down across from the admiral. ::

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
FCO: No cookies today? ::giggles::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
OPS/CMO:  There is lots of finger foods for them.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
Admiral:  I will take care of the twins.  They are picky eaters and they will not eat everything if they pick them out themselves.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::Thinks that he missed a person.:: All: huh, I thought that the counselor was here too. CEO: Well I just ate one, but I have not been hypo-sprayed.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
OPS:  Ok, I hope you don't mind if I start.  ::lifting her fork she takes a bite of the grilled veggies she loves so much::

CNS_Wells says:
::Not able to get through at the present time, sends a verbal message to his best pal, on Earth::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
FCO/CEO: Looks like he must have left, oh well. ::sips his drink::

CMO_McDonald says:
:: nods and follows suit with the admiral eating the crackers on his plate ::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
CEO: Did I behave like a cookie-monster? I must apologize, I guess.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::she gets a couple of plates and gets the twins their favorites::  Twins:  Liam, Kiandra, Come and eat.  ::she walks over to the table and places the plates down.::

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
aCO: yes, looks that way. Looks like he has some sneaky moves ::smiles::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::the twins run in and sit down at the table and begin eating::  Twins:  Now you two behave while I go get my food.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
CEO: I think he is just worried about the trial, like the rest of us.

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
FCO: I don't know, I missed the cookie binge, I just came along in time to help clean up the mess that was your face.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::Sips from his tea. Opens the other bag of a tea biscuits.::

CMO_McDonald says:
:: notices Caleb has gone and done the same all by himself ::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::Smiles at the talk of the CEO.::

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
aCO: That is to be expected. ::nods taking a sip::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::she gets her food and returns to the table and sits down.  She remembers about the drinks and she gets up and grabs two milks and an iced tea and returns.::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: slowly lifts his glass and whispers softly. :: Self: To Tio , a fine captain, and better human being then I'll ever be. :: downs the glass once more.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::she places the milks in front of the twins and the tea by her food, then she sits down to enjoy.::

CNS_Wells says:
::Sends a Message - Zach, do me a favor. I'm thinking about taking some classes on Federation Law. Maybe doing it on Earth so, I could spend time there. What would you say if I told you I was thinking about adding attorney to my shingle? Just an idea. Get back to me ASAP ::Closes COM and sends message::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
::finishes his drink and rises:: ALL: This is where I get off. You guys have fun and I will see you later. ::rises and heads out::

CNS_Wells says:
::Satisfied, he goes to his quarters for some reading time::

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
::nods to the aCO as he leaves::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::watching the children was such a pleasure.::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::Sticks his hand in the air, to greet the aCO.:: aCO: Ciao.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
Admiral:  See, nothing beats happy kids.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
OPS:  I agree.  This is what life is all about.  Seeing the next generation happy.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: looks over as the crew begins to disperse, the nagging fear in his head that somehow he's just not ready to be who they need him to be, comes to the forefront of his thoughts.::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::nods and smiles in agreement then takes a bite of her food.::

CEO_Ens_Pasco says:
