Host CO_Ayidee says:
Ship's Log, Stardate 11302.03, Captain Ayidee recording.  As the Refit crews continue their work on the Cherokee, the crew is on what should be at most light duty for the next while.  I am about to take in an entertainment program that has a few links to Astrophysics degrees.  Well, that may be a stretch...

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Begin Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  ::walking down the hall toward the CEO's room to give him an update::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Standing with the crowd, feels the line slowly begin to move forward and follows along to the ticket taker.::  Clerk: One please.

Host Alexandra says:
::pacing her room, thinking she is going to go mad if she doesn't get out and get some air.  Going to her closet, she pulls out a blonde wig and puts it on.::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::walking with Tehya Ashworth and Dawn Tiernan among the store fronts.::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
::sitting in front of a console, checking on the status of the refit when his door chimes::  Outloud: Enter.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::In his temporary quarters on Starbase 33.  He looks ready for bed but is sitting in living area watching the daily broadcasts on a large screen viewing monitor::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Sitting on her bed, listening to MO Rhapsody talk her ear off::

Host Alexandra says:
::walking back to the living room, she asks the computer where or if there is an arboretum on the station::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
<Clerk> CO: Normal seating or "full experience?  ::Looks up.::  Uh, full experience meaning zero gravity.

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  ::walks into the CEO's room holding out a PADD::  CEO:  I have inspected the new warp core, everything is to our specs.  ::handing over PADD.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Clerk: Full experience.  But for accuracy's sake you should say micro or null gravity.  One of the ticket's you are selling has gravity to it.

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
::tunrs around and takes the PADD::  Keller: Thank you, Ensign.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Picks up chopwI' as he finally comes in from the underbrush:: chopwI':  have you had enough yet?

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  CEO: If there’s nothing else sir, I’ve got some personal things I like to do.  ::he says grinning::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
<Clerk> CO: Wha?  Oh, yeah.  They told me I'd hear that a bit.  So I say...  ::Looks down.::  "Oh, sorry, you are right..."  ::Looks up.:: "Uh, Captain."  ::Hands him a ticket.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Takes a ticket and steps inside.::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Still talking:: CMO: -so I totally told him I wasn't even interested and he wouldn't give up! Can you believe that? I mean, I'm an MO, so I know how to defend myself, but if that klingon comes around again and tries anything, there's gonna be a problem. I mean come on, it totally ruined my evening.  You know what I mean?

Host Alexandra says:
::getting the information from the computer, she leaves her quarters, looking down the corridor to make sure it is clear::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Cont...:: CMO: And seriously, I get a chance to sit down and take a break from constant flow of sick people and have a drink and he starts bothering me. ::Looks over:: You even listening to me?

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Blinks:: MO: Umm...

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::While a commercial plays, for NASA Intergalactic Shuttle service, cheap flights from Earth to Risa, package tours and free transporter service from home to one of their many shuttle launching stations, Wally puts his empty supper dishes in the recycler::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
Keller: Thank you. You may go. I expect another report this time tommorrow.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> CMO: Good. ::Seems pleased:: Now, what're we doing tonight?

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
chopwI': I think it's time to take you in and get you some dinner. It's time for my dinner as well.  You think they have a Klingon resteraunt on this crate?

Host Alexandra says:
::catching the TL she gets off at the deck that has the arboretum::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  CEO: Yes sir.  ::he turns and leaves before the Vulcan can say anything else. Been looking forward all day to meeting with Tibbitts::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Scratches chopwI' behind the ears and starts looking for the exit::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
MO: Well...

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbitts>  ::In her quarters finishing up her hair, thinking is this a date of just 2 crewmen getting a drink?  Doesn’t matter, still excited::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Follows the tape markings on the deck plating.  Stops just before where the spectator in front of him lost balance and tripped up.::  Self: That's well marked for safety.  ::Takes a trained step in.::  Self: Now remember, feet are down brain.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
<Viewing Monitor Voice>: Broadcasting: Join us Thursday night at 2200 hours for Kandi Chase Live, right here on FNS; your source for Earth news.

Host Alexandra says:
::walking down the corridor, she looks for the number of the Arboretum. It will be nice to relax and not worry about who is after her.  They would never think of looking for her in there::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Cuts her off:: CMO: OH!!! We could go shopping, or get something to eat, or have a drink or something. Or even better! All three!! ::Practically jumps up and down in excitement::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  ::heads for his quarters to get out of this uniform::

Host Alexandra says:
::finds the door and starts to enter::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Raises her hands up:: MO: OKAY! We'll do something. ::Puts her hand up to her face:: Remember though, I told you no wild parties.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Steps through the arboretum exit into the corridor and runs into a female, dropping chopwI'::

Host Alexandra says:
CTO:  Oh my!  ::bumping into a wall that wasn't supposed to be there::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Returns to his comfy seat, with a tasty beverage; and puts his bare feet up on the coffee table::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
::goes to the Replicator::  Computer: Long island iced tea.  ::the taste was satisfactory to him, but this time withour the alcohol::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Rolls and pushes to the spectator area.  Sees a series of straps secured to the benches.  ::Shrugs and hooks one onto belt.::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller> ::runs into his quarters and quickly changes clothes::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Alexandra:  Excuse me! ::Crouches down quickly to grab chopwI' before she runs off::

Host Alexandra says:
::as she looks up, she sees a Klingon and almost screams::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Alexandra:  My apologies.  I did not see you.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Watching a documentary on Klingon history::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  ::almost runs out without grabbing the picnic basket, he heads toward Tibbitts room::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Scoops up the cat and holds her close to his chest::

Host Alexandra says:
CTO:  Er em, what is that you have in your hands?  ::looking at chowl'::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbitts>  :: pacing back and forth, wondering were he is::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Looks at the other spectators, and starts sizing up to see where a safe place to float would be.  Unclips and moves to a back corner.::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Alexandra:: This is chopwI'. She's an ocelot. ::holds the cat out slightly:: chopwI': Say hello chopwI'.

Host Alexandra says:
CTO:  Is it safe to pet it?

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Alexandra:  This one is, yes.  Although I would not recommend it with a wild one.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::the three women spot a clothing store and they enter to see what was available.::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  ::arrives to her door, straightens his outfit and touches the chime::

Host Alexandra says:
::tentatively she reaches out to touch the ocelot:: CTO:  The fur is softer than I expected.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Alexandra: Yes, she can be quite the snuggler when she chooses to.

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbitts>  ::thinking about time goes to the door and opens it and there stands Keller::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> CMO: Oh good, maybe we can bring someone with us? Anyone you know?

Host Alexandra says:
CTO:  I am new to the station.  Just passing through you might say.  Would you mind showing me around the arboretum?

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Blinks again:: MO: Umm...Not really?

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Sees a bunch of Klingons zapping this one poor Klingon guy with sticks that sparkle, looking like they hurt alot,.  Pain sticks or something.::  
TV: Ouch, that looks like it hurts.  Self: I'll have to ask Mr. Q'ten what the point of that ceremony is.

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  ::bows slightly:: Tibbitts: Good evening Cathy. Sorry forthe delay, Mr. Salor had me working on somthing. You know him, always working.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Rolls her eyes:: CMO: You are the most un-social person I know. Why do I even spend time with you?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Looking with growing concern at the rest of the audience.  Perhaps full effect was not a good "seating" choice.::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Raises an eyebrow and keeps her thoughts to herself::

Host Alexandra says:
::looking over her shoulder to make sure no one else is in the corridor::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbitts>  ::steps out of her quarters and puts an arm through his::  Keller: I know, he has me monitoring the new power grid.  He needs to get a life, in a bad way. So were we going Jake?  ::as they walk away together::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  ::holds up the basket:: Tibbitts: Thought we’d head down to the arboretum, for a picnic.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Would call a friend but, doesn't have any::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Alexandra: I don't mean to sound presumptious, but are you familiar with this station?

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> CMO: What about that nice new Counselor we have aboard?

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Shrugs:: MO: If you'd like to. You can get a hold of him just as easy as I could.

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
::closes down the console and picks up a PADD and returns to were he left off in the book he is reading while sipping on the tea::

Host Alexandra says:
CTO:  Not at all.  I would like to see this place though.  ::hoping she isn't sounding too anxious::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Notices the woman looking nervously around::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Takes his feet off the coffee table, scratches himself and sits up::  TV: I've had enough of this.  Turn off.

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbitts> ::as they step into a TL::  Keller: Sounds fantastic.  ::she hugs his arm::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Alexandra: Well I was just taking chopwI' here to get her some dinner before finding some for myself. Perhaps you would care to join me?

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  TL: Arboretum.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Smiles:: CMO: Good. It's settled. ::Sends a message to the CNS's quarters hoping that he's there to answer::

Host Alexandra says:
CTO:  I, well I don't like to be around a lot of people.  That is why I came here.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Gets up off the couch and looks around his suite for something to do.  Wonders if he would want to go to the stations gym for a workout::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::As the bench lighting comes down, sees the show just beginning.  Hopes the lack of light makes the balance issues lessen.::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Alexandra:  I'm not exactly looking for the most popular establishment on the station.  Just someplace that might serve up a really good rokheg blood pie.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Self: I'd go to bed but I'm not tired.  ::Goes to look out the large bay window, looking out at space and the few things orbiting the station::  Self: Yup, nice view.

Host Alexandra says:
::has no idea what he is talking about, but it doesn't sound good::  CTO:  Thank you, but I believe I will look around in here for a while.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Pouts lightly:: Self: Maybe he's not in...

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  ::both are nervous, then the TL opens up to the deck the arboretum is located on and they walk out head toward it::

Host Alexandra says:
::pets the ocelot and moves further into the arboretum::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Hears the computer console that he's logged into chime that he has a message.  He goes to investigate.::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  ::they step into the arboretum:  Tibbitts: Pick out a good spot.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Alexandra:  the invitation stands open should you change your mind.  My name is Q'ten, son of Q'tor of the House of Qaveq

Host Alexandra says:
::sees other people coming and and walks quickly around a bend, and stands there watching them::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbitts>  Keller: Lets walk for a bit, I’ve never been in here.  ::they begin walking into the arboretum, enjoying a relaxing stroll::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Self: Rhapsody?  Do I know a Rhapsody?  Who cares, beggars can't be choosy.  ::Text back - 'I'd be delighted.  Where are you?'::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
chopwI': Let's leave the nice lady to herself and get you something to eat.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Watches the dancers moving through the bay.  Quickly starts to notice 2 main types.  A few are sharp, crisp, orderly.  Probably former Starfleet.  The others are smooth, natural, but no apparent training.  Probably lifelong space transport raised.::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Hears the chime:: Self: Oh good!. ::Quickly reads it and sends back - Talora and I are at Talora's quarters right now, we can meet somewhere or something.::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Heads off for his quarters::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbitts>  ;:points:  Keller: Look, that’s somthing I wouldn't expect to see here.  ::points to the klingon::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Hears a series of hurried, clumsy bumps as people make to leave the room.  Adds a third classification, unskilled amateurs.::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Is surprised to see Talora's name in the newest text message.  Text back - 'I've never been here.  I don't know where is good.  Why don't I come to your quarters and we can decide from there?'::

Host Alexandra says:
::is beginng to think this was a bad idea, and takes a circuitous route back to the door::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Tibbitts/Keller: Good evening.  Are we having fun yet?

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  ::looks to were Cathy pointed::  Tibbitts: We'll I'll be.  Guess we not the only ones needing some fresh air.::  Walking up as the CTO walks to them::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Hears another chime and reads it before turning:: CMO: Can he come here first and then we can go somewhere?

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Sighs heavily and merely nods::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  CTO: Cadet:  Surprising seeing you here.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Quickly starts running around, getting dressed in clothes he had bought just before coming "Home"::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbitts> CTO: Yes we are.  ::grinning::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Claps:: Self: Yay. ::Sends a reply - Sure thing.::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Keller:  It was the first place I thought of to let chopwI' here run off some pent up energy.

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbitts>  CTO:  Ahhh  he's so cute.. can I pet him?

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Hears new message chime.  Checks message.  Text back - 'Be there very shortly'::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  CTO: We are enjoying our time away from the ship. Don't get time for free time.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Tibbitts: Sure.  ::Holds chopwI' up to be checked out.

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbittis>  ::reaches out and rubs the little cat’s head::   CTO: What is it? I’ve never seen a cat like this before.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::the OPS Trio looks through several racks of clothes and naturally they all found items they liked and of course, bought.::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Turns back:: CMO: Oh yes, I meant to tell you. That woman you've been seeing? She has quarters not far from here. I saw her quite a few hours ago. ::Shrugs:: Just thought you'd like to know.

Host Alexandra says:
::sees the three of them talking and walks out of the arboretum.  She almost runs to the TL::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Trips, putting on his pants in too much of a rush and falls down to the carpet.  He springs back up and hoped no one saw that.  Finishes getting dressed and brushes his teeth::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Tibbits:  She is called an Ocelot.  They are native to the South American continent on Earth.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Looks up quickly at Rhapsody:: MO: Is that so? Interesting...We'll just keep an eye out. We've nothing to go on, could just be an anxious person. The Counselor would do a better job in profiling this person.

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbitts>  ::pets thecats head still and scratches under it's chin.::  CTO:  Never been there.  I grew up in California.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Looking good, exits suite and asks PADD for directions to the Level 19 Section 33 quarters of CMO Talora::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Tibbitts:  California... that would be on the west coast of North America, correct?

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbitts>  CTO:  Yes, in San Francesco,  not far from Starfleet headquarters.  You should join us.  ::looks to Keller:: Im sure we have plenty of food.

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller>  ::thinking so much for being alone::  CTO: There is plenty, you are welcome to join.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Studying directions, proceeds to destination, using PADD as a compas.  Several turns and one Turbolift ride later, is ringing the door chime of where he hopes is the correct address::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Tibbitts:  Why thank you.  I was just headed to get chopwI' her dinner before getting my own.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Forces herself to stand up and look over at the door.::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Is anxious about Talora suddenly wanting to see him::

Host Alexandra says:
::steps off the TL and sees someone down the hall, hoping the person is not looking for her::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Rushes over to open the door:: CNS: Hello there!

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller> CTO Can he have ham or turkey.?

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
MO: Hi, I'm Wally Daniels.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::after leaving a nice sum of currency at the clothes store, the OPS Trio went to get a bite to eat at a nearby eatery.::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
Keller: I don't see why not. She'd probably enjoy it.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> CNS: Rhapsody Williams. Nice to meet cha. ::Smiles brightly:: I don't get out of Sickbay much, Talora is such a slave driver. ::Rolls her eyes::

Host Alexandra says:
::looking down at her bag, she pretends to look in it for something so her face is not seen::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Calls out:: MO: I heard that!

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Tibbitts>  CTO: Then it's settled, lets find a place to sit. I'm getting hungry.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Sees the dancers group together in the middle of the show, closely packed.  Then they all burst out, each pulling a streamer and flying towards an exit in a prearranged pattern.::  Self: Impressive, an unpowered starburst.  That has to take a bit of setup.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
MO: A pleasure to know you.  ::Hears Talora's voice:: Does she... you know, know I was coming?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Sees the lights in the show area go dark and the lights in the seating get brighter.  Also feels the gravity increasing slowly to make exiting easier.::

Host Alexandra says:
::as the person disappears into a room, she hurries to her room and rushes inside::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Tilts her head in confusion:: CNS: Of course. I'd hardly invite someone I barely know to someone else’s quarters without asking first.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
MO: Oh, yes, of course.  ::Steps into the room, since he was invited.  Looks around::  Nice quarters.  ::Sees CMO::
CMO: Hi.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
CNS: Hi there. ::Smiles lightly::

Host Alexandra says:
::goes to the sofa and sits down, trying to calm her beating heart::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
chopwI': Well it looks like this is your lucky day.  You get to stay a while longer.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CMO/MO: Are you both enjoying your station time?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Looks about as the announcer thanks everyone and begins to repeat the upcoming schedule.  Sees that about 90 percent of the spectators are still watching, and perhaps 1 in 100 looks comfortable.::

CEO_LtJg_Salor says:
<Keller> ::leads them all further into the arboretum::  Tibbitts/CTO: There must a be a brook in here somewere.  I like streams.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> ::Allows the doors to close behind them:: CNS: I've been trying to get her to go out and have some fun. She is SO not a social person, but I'm pretty sure you knew that by now.  I mean, you're the Counselor and I'm sure you two've been introduced before. I mean who knows, you may've even been working on our last mission together, I don't know.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Waits till Rhapsody finishes her speech:: CNS: So far, yeah.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CMO/MO: I'd be okay with staying in.  This is nice.  I could just stay here for awhile and we can all visit and then, when you get tired of me I'll go home.  
CMO: Unless we've already reached that point, of course.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Sniffs the airs:: Keller: I think there's a body of water this way ::points off in a random direction::
