<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Resume Mission>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Listening to the next melody of the concert::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
::Walking about the station, wandering through the shops browsing and wondering if there is really anything I need.::

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
::Still sitting enjoying the concert.  Thinking that he has sat enough::

TO_Lt_LVor says:
::Thinks to himself, the music is a great interlude, but it is time to get something to eat, and not anything replicated::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::as usual, at his quarters, enjoying some meditation exercises.. however thinking of taking an indulgence, and pay a visit to the Station to attend some concert::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Nods to the TO as he leaves his seat and walks towards the restaurant row on the Starbase::

OPS_Ens_Granger says:
::Watching the concert trying to think of something else to do::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::finishes his meditation, puts out the ritual candle in front of him, and heads to the bathroom to take a sonic shower::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Still have to go and buy some decorations for his quarters, it has been austere since his arrival onboard the Cherokee, stands and waves to whomever looks over at him, and heads for the promenade retailers::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
::Sees a nice, plush robe, with a Tellar cut and style, sitting on a store shelf along side a pillow.  Sign next to it, printed in several languages, says "Isn't it time to indulge?"::  Self: No, but I think I will anyway.  ::Takes the robe off the shelf along with one of the pillows and goes to pay for it.::

Host Commander_Bonnie says:
::Exits his office on the Station and checks with his Yeoman before heading out to find some lunch.  Or is it dinner?::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::after the shower, gets into his uniform and heads out of his quarters::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
::Arranges to have the items sent to the ship and then heads out, looking for an imported fruit vendor.::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Walking out of the concert area, starting his window shopping::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::check the concert schedule on his PADD: Self:: Nice, I am on time for the human opera tribute.

Host Commander_Bonnie says:
::Sees Captain Daniels enjoying the music and walks closer to hear a bit himself.::

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
::Sees the Commander join the audience and gives him a friendly nod::

Host Commander_Bonnie says:
CO: Captain, good to see you again.  The promotion looks good on you, congratulations.

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
Bonnie: Thank you, it is good to see you again as well.

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::the Turbolift arrives to the airlock deck, and Marek heads out of the ship::

Host Commander_Bonnie says:
CO: Didn't want to disturb your leave yet, but as I saw you here, I thought I'd give you a heads up.  Your next set of orders is loaded into the system and ready for delivery next time you log into a secure, or securable, console.  We will be working together on it...in a fashion.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Walks into an interior decorating shop, that has nautical and other novelties that would give his quarters a distinctive look::

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
Bonnie: Is that right?  Anything you can tell me or should I just wait to check into my console?

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::checks the directions on the PADD and heads for the sector::

Host Commander_Bonnie says:
CO: I can't go into details here, impossible to make sure the wrong ears aren't listening here, but your ship will be assigned to my investigation team.  I just felt it a good time to let you know, you will have "creative freedom" to carry out this mission.  Anything you think will work is open, as long as it is within Starfleet regs.

Host Commander_Bonnie says:
CO: It involves some major theft of very "sensitive" items.

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
Bonnie: Okay,  A real mystery, huh?  A real who-done-it?

Host Commander_Bonnie says:
CO: That it is, mixed with a bit of "how was it done".  My team has been hunting leads for about a year, but without a Starship, by the time we get there the lead is cold.  Or outdated.  That's why I asked for you.

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::on his way sees a bar, where he tasted a perfect Vulcan Hot Tea, almost like the original. Checks the time, and he figures he had some spare minutes before the concert begins::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::is greeted by the store owner, and Isaac starts a buying spree, just pointing to items and saying "buy", "buy", "buy".  So far he has a telescope on a tripod, and few ship's deck lanterns, a few nautical rope knot displays showing different nautical knots, and the list is growing::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::takes a seat and orders the tea::

Host Commander_Bonnie says:
CO: I will let you enjoy your leave, however.  I actually was coming to find some food when I noticed you.  Figured an unofficial greeting might make things easier to get started when your leave is over.

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
Bonnie: It will be nice working with you Again. I expect the work on our ship to be done by tomorrow.  We'll get underway very shortly after that.

OPS_Ens_Granger says:
::Still sitting in the audience at the concert.  He didn't mean to but he overheard what was being said between the Captain and Commander.  Feels awkward.  He gets up and leaves with no destination in mind::

Host Commander_Bonnie says:
CO: Yes, thank you, I have been keeping an eye on your ship's status.  I'll speak with you again probably the day after tomorrow.  Barring the unexpected.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::has collected quite the arrangement, he keys in his authorization code for deducting his credits, and has the store beam the items to the Ship::

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
Bonnie: I'll talk to you then.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Departs the store and heads for the restaurant area to eat dinner::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::the waiter brings him the Tea, Marek puts his PADD aside and slowly begins to taste his favorite beverage::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
::Finds a vendor with a wide variety.  Grabs a few known varieties, and then 4 more for "taste testing" and experience widening.::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Walks into the first restaurant that he sees, notices Capt. Marek already seated::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::sees Commander Hull entering the restaurant and waves discreetly to him::

OPS_Ens_Granger says:
::Decides to enter an establishment that rents out holodecks::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Sees Capt. Marek waving discreetly at him, he lets the hostess know that he would be joining a guest already seated and heads over to the table::

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
::Goes back to the ship and to his quarters::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
CIV:  Good evening Captain, May I join you?

SO_Lt_Trix says:
Self: Now I need some bread to go with this.  A few days worth of meats maybe?  Not sure how long they would store, though...

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
CEO: By all means, Commander. Please take a seat.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
CIV:  Thank you! Very kind, it was a great concert! Wasn't it?  Captain Daniels has given me leave to arrange holodeck concerts while transitioning between missions in the future, happily we may actually move to shipmates playing their own instruments, if there are any.

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
CEO: That's a lovely idea. I think many members of the crew will be interested either on listening or playing an instrument.

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
CEO: I would volunteer if I had the ability to play a musical instrument. That skill has been neglected for me unfortunately. ::sips his cup::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
CEO: And , oh, are you having something? A drink? ::signals the waiter::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
CIV:  I think so as well, I was moved, emotionally soothed by the music, in a way that music has not affected me in such a powerful manner; ever in my life, it was life changing ::points to the menu to the waiter, the NY Strip, loaded baked potato, grilled asparagus, and a tall scotch::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
::Heads from shop to shop and gets a few fresh meals worth of supplies to hold off the need for Replicated foods.::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
CEO: Seems a frugal dinner ... or not...

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
CIV:  Not frugal, it is my "Isaac has been a good boy" dinner.

OPS_Ens_Granger says:
::Rents a holodeck and a holodeck program, a Bajoran holo-novel "The Dinner Party::; a popular novel on Bajor::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
CEO: Oh I see... ::sips his cup again finishing his tea:: Anyway, hope you are enjoying this shore leave... It was a much needed one after last week..

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
::Time to give Fred a sonic shower::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
CIV:  Yes, it was an exhausting mission, although I'm happy that we found the resolution and got everyone where they ought to be, still I feel we are to be commended for a job well done ::takes a sip of his scotch::
