USS Seleya - 10403.28

Host SM-Lyon says:
Respite - Part 1

Host SM-Lyon says:
SUMMARY: The crew is busy getting ready for departure. No orders have been sent yet, but the Captain decided it would be better to cast off at a moment's notice, than first having to recall all the crew on the base.

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
Crew: I'm sure you're wondering why I'm pulling you away from your various shoreleave activities

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
:;Gives the XO a slight smirk and turns to the Captain::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
Crew: But an occasion worthy of all of your attendance has just come up.

CEO: Ensign Erixa Kice, over the course of your assignment here on the Seleya you've proven to be a capable, even outstanding officer

CSO_LtCmdr_Revell-Francis says:
:: Watches the Captain and CEO ::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
CEO: Due to your conduct during our last mission, as well as exemplary personal qualities and sense of duty

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
:: listen to the Captain::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
CEO: I am hereby, on behalf of Starfleet Command, promoting you to the rank of Lieutenant, Junior Grade, with all the rights and privileges that entails.

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
CEO: Congratulations, Lieutenant.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
:: Hands her the PADD too, with the orders and his own personal congratulations - he's not as reserved and pissy as you all think ::

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
:: takes the pip::

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
CEO: Congrats lieutenant

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
CIV: Thank you. :: smiles::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
Jo'ost: You can bring them out now...

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
:: looks at Jo'ost to see what the captain is talking about::

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
::Looks a little worried, bring out what?::

Host SM-Lyon says:
ACTION: Jo'ost appears with a tray, glasses on it. Something red in them that looks really tasty.

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
::looks at the memorizing drinks::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
:: Smiles slightly ::

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
:: looks at the drinks::

Host SM-Lyon says:
<continue> In the middle is a bottle, with a label "With compliments to the crew of the USS Seleya."

CSO_LtCmdr_Revell-Francis says:
:: Looks at the approaching bartender, wondering what this is about ::

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
::relaxes a bit::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
:: Grabs a shot of the red vodka as Jo'ost passes ::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
:: Downs it, in a surprisingly refined way ::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
:: places the glass down on the nearest table ::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
CEO: Congratulations once again Lieutenant, Keep up the good work

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
::takes one of the drinks:: CO: What's this for, Sir.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
CO: Thank you sir. I'll do my best. ::smiles::

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
:: takes a glass and takes a sip of it ::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
CIV: Call it a gift for the Lieutenant, and a reminder to all of you that you are all outstanding officers; but the time for fun is here during shoreleave.

XO_LtCmdr_Darklighter says:
::takes two drinks, one to wake him up and one just incase the first doesn't work::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
CIV: Call it a fluke that our two drunkards don't even seem to be here to enjoy it... :: Smiles sardonically ::

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
::Tries the red drink, grimaces a bit at the taste::

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
:: grins at the captains remark::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
ALL: Now, if you'll excuse me... I think I have a previous engagement on the Bridge...

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
::holds up his class to the captain:: CO: And you’re an outstanding captain! :: downs the red drink::

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
ALL: Something came up.

Host CO_Capt_Muir says:
:: Leaves enigmatically through the door, pressing his thumb print to Jo'ost's bill as he passes ::

CSO_LtCmdr_Revell-Francis says:
:: Picks up one of the glasses, inspects it and downs it ::

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
:: takes another drink::

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
:: looks at the PADD the captain gave her and skims over it::

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
::Walks over to Kice::  CEO: Congratulations Lt.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
FCO: Thanks!

XO_LtCmdr_Darklighter says:
::walks over to the CEO:: Well done Lt, I couldn't think of another deserving crew member then yourself

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CEO:  Of course you realize this is just another of the Nacandarians fabrications, and you'll be waking up in a second, right?

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
XO: Thank you Sir :: grins::

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
FCO: :: smiles:: I hope not.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CEO:  In all seriousness, congratulations.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
::nods to the XO::

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
XO:  Alright........

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
FCO: Thank you, I'm not sure I deserve it, I'm just doing my job.

CSO_LtCmdr_Revell-Francis says:
CEO: Congratulations, Lieutenant.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CEO:  no doubt in my mind.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
CSO: Thank you, Sir.

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
::listens to the conversation:: CEO: of course you deserve it

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
:;Leans in a little towards Kice:: CEO: Your right....and that’s why they gave it to you.

CSO_LtCmdr_Revell-Francis says:
:: Nods to the CEO and walks out of the lounge, leaving the glass on an empty table ::

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
:: smiles:: FCO: I guess your right.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
::Tries to take another drink and grimaces again, setting it down on the table::

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
::Grabs a less intense drink and leans against the conference table::  All:  So, were are we headed from here do you think?

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
FCO: I'm not sure, has anything come back from the probe we sent out yet?

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
ALL:  I'd be shocked if we were sent back to investigate that object honestly, After two weeks, you'd think they would send someone to investigate.

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
All: As long as it isn't to great another alien race, I'll be fine

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CEO:  Not that I'm aware off.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
CIV: I agree.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CIV:  Were you on the investigation team we sent to the Nacandarians?

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
FCO: There ship? I was

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CIV:  And you still think that the whole thing was an accident?

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
FCO: Well the investigation showed it was a failure of their system, but even a failure could have been preprogrammed

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
::Looks at Kice, wondering what she thinks about the Nacandarians::

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
ALL: It would have been nice to hear what the V'Rax had to say about it.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
::Nods::  CIV:  So I guess I'm not the only one that feels that there’s a lot more to this than they let on?

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CEO:  Agreed.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CEO:  Very, very much agreed.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
All: To be honest,  this whole thing had me a little on edge even after.

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
All: For all we know, the Nacandarians could have falsified what they showed us.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
CIV: I couldn't imagine making something like that up, but it is possible.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CEO:  It's not just that, speaking from a purely strategic perspective, it felt almost like they were probing us, you know, to see how far the could go and how we would react.

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
All: but they seem sincere enough

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CEO:  Sort of like a scout or lead element will probe an ememy, testing their defenses before they decide to attack.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
CIV: Yes they did.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
FCO: I agree.

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
FCO: I disagree, sure an enemy would do something like this, but it is also a good why to learn about a species. This isn't first time the federation has been tested this way.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
All:  What about they're commander being "Indisposed"?  After something like that, Starfleet would be falling all over themselves to try to make sure it wasnt take wrong

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
ALL: Maybe one of these days we'll find out the truth. Since the Nacandarians are still in Federation Space I'm sure Starfleet wont let them live here without doing a little more investigating

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CIV:  True, but it was made very clear by the Captain that this was NOT acceptable to us.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
::Sighs and shakes his head::  CIV:  I don’t know, that’s a dangerous way to approach something like this.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
ALL:  I just think that Starfleet is being too accommodating, especially with so little about them being know, and next to nothing of the V'rax.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
All: For all we know, the Nacandarians could be the ones who initiated the conflict with the V'rax.

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
All: Unfortunately the winner is the one to right history

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
ALL:  I've seen first hand what happens when you unconditionally welcome everyone with open arms.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
CIV/FCO: Agreed.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CIV:  Usually.....

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
All:  Maybe we should move on to another topic, one not so.......immutable.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
FCO: Good idea.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
::smiles::

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
::Grumbling::  ALL:  Since there's not a lot we can do about it now.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
:: nods::

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CEO:  Back to where were off to.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
::Turns to Viren::  CIV:  What do you two think?

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
FCO: I don't know, but I would like to go on a simple exploration mission, something to allow the crew to wind down

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
CIV: That would be nice.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CIV:  wouldn’t be a bad idea.  I know that after the plague incident, the flight crews were more than on edge.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
All:  Not an easy thing to take, being inadvertently responsible for hundreds of innocent deaths.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CIV: Have any of them come to see you since then?

CIV_LtJG_Viren says:
FCO: At least you weren't down there, experiencing it first hand.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
::Taken aback a little::  CIV:  And that’s means what exactly?

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
CIV: Agreed, Luckily I was only down there for a bit.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
:: notices the FCOs reaction and is a little confused::

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CIV:  You think it was any less tense for us?  We had to fire on civilian ships, filled with people who only wanted to survive.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CIV: It was ugly, all around, for everyone.

FCO_LtJG_Aan says:
CIV: Not just those of you on the ground.

CEO_Ens_Kice says:
:: remembers the 45 people that were killed and understands the FCOs reaction::
