CEO_Ltjg_Cerdan says:

CMO: Sure shoot me.

CSO_LtCmdr_Lomax says:
::Shakes his head:: Self: Doctors, all they want to do is shoot your neck or do physicals.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams_MacLeod says:
::leans against the desk:: CO: Wait a minute Mackie. I can't be your second officer. I'm your wife! Isn't there a rule against that or something?

CEO: Good, did we get any extra batteries?

CEO_Ltjg_Cerdan says:
XO: We have more than standard complement sir.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  Hmm.. no.  You're are a Starfleet Officer, and that's enough.

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::gives the inoculation to the CIV:: CIV:  That didn't hurt a bit, did it?  CSO:  And no, that is not all doctors want to do...

FCO_Cmdr_Adams_MacLeod says:

CIV_Cdt_Campbell says:
CMO: You know me better then that Tessa; medicine and that stuff does not bother me a bit.

CSO_LtCmdr_Lomax says:

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:

CEO: Any way to rig up a few extra, to give us a little bit extra power in an emergency?

CIV_Cdt_Campbell says:
::Looks at Lomax:: CSO: I even heard that thought. ::Smiles::

CSO_LtCmdr_Lomax says:
::Shakes head::

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  Well... you're the highest rank onboard, after Jake... and a great officer.  I doubt they would disagree of my decision.

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
*CO*:  Captain, sorry to disturb you and the missus, but if you two are ready, these inoculations are very important.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::leans closer:: FCO:  Commander... do you accept it?  ::smiles::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams_MacLeod says:
::fumbles with the PADD:: CO: Well if you think I can do the job....you sure you don't want to reconsider this?

CSO_LtCmdr_Lomax says:
::Winks at the CIV:: CMO/CIV: I have been told that  before.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
*CMO*:  We'll be there in a minute.

CIV_Cdt_Campbell says:
::Smiles and turns back to her console::

CEO_Ltjg_Cerdan says:
XO: All the fusion reactor back ups are linked to the primary EPS, Normally they would be separate and have to be linked manually in an emergency.

XO_Cmdr_Jakuharrr says:
CEO: Very well, keep up the good work, I’ll talk to the Captain about your request, but considering engineer is not fully staffed either, I am not sure if we do anything right away.

CEO_Ltjg_Cerdan says:
XO: Thank you sir.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  I'm positive.  So?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams_MacLeod says:
::smiles:: CO: Alright I accept but remember if things go wrong, it's all your fault.

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
*CO*: Yes sir.  ::moves back over to Lomax with Taurek in silent tow::  CSO:  After I finish with the captain and his wife, can you come with me to engineering and then my office?

CIV_Cdt_Campbell says:
~~~CMO: So what do you think about the new CSO? ~~~

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::grins::  FCO:  Noted.  ::heads to the doors::  Now let's move to Sickbay and get inoculated.

CMO: Why Engineering Lieutenant?

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:

CSO_LtCmdr_Lomax says:
::Grins slightly::

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::looks back at Lomax::  CSO:  Oh, sorry.  Because I have two more inoculations to give.  Won't take long and we can talk on the way.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::heads to turbolift:: FCO:  How are you feeling today, by the way?

CEO_Ltjg_Cerdan says:
XO; They have resonance regulators as well, so we can't over load the grid.

CSO_LtCmdr_Lomax says:
CMO: Very well Doctor. ::Secures his console::

XO_Cmdr_Jakuharrr says:

FCO_Cmdr_Adams_MacLeod says:
CMO: Tessa, I'm not sure I should be inoculated.....::leans over and whispers:: you know the babies and all?

::Stops the turbolift::

CEO_Ltjg_Cerdan says:
::Returns to the main console and checks the main reactor::

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
FCO: This will be fine.  I have already thought of that.  You don't want what the Cormanii have...  ::administers the hypo to Cassie::

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
*XO*: The bridge.  I was just on my way to engineering if you'll stay there, please.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
CMO:  Not really, Doc.   How long a time are we free from the Cormanii's effect?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams_MacLeod says:
::smiles: :CMO: If you say so.

XO_Cmdr_Jakuharrr says:
*CMO*: Actually I am in the turbolift currently, how about we meet in sickbay, I need to inspect there anyway.

CSO_LtCmdr_Lomax says:
CO: Captain, it will hurt, don’t let her tell you otherwise. ::Grins::

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::Enters the turbolift and takes the CSO's arm and gently pulls him in with her.  Taurek squeezes in, too:: CO: Inoculated, it should last at least a year.

CSO_LtCmdr_Lomax says:

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::Narrows her eyes at the CSO and whispers::  CSO:  It is not funny!

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
XO:  You bet she's does.  ::grins::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams_MacLeod says:
CO: Captain, shall I maintain present course?

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  Maintain course.  ::sighs::

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::Takes a seat::  CSO: You cannot imagine.  ::rubs her temple, several 'memories' from the crew coming to mind::  I was the counselor at the time. Being Betazoid, I acquired quite a few vivid recollections with my counseling.  It was horrible.  The Gryphon had offered the Megleans help and they turned on them.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams_MacLeod says:
::nods and returns to watching the readings::

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::glances at the CIV::  CIV:  Ms. Campbell...  how about that homework of yours?

CIV_Cdt_Campbell says:
::Looks over at the CO:: CO: I have brushed up on my diplomatic skills sir. I should be prepared.

CEO_Ltjg_Cerdan says:
*Cerdan to Bridge*: Warp reactor output holding steady at 90%. We should be able to maintain this indefinitely.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
CO: No sir...nothing since their last report.  But I did want to ask you about the communication buoys.  I think we ought to space them 30 light years apart, sir.

CSO_LtCmdr_Lomax says:
CMO: I can understand how you feel. I have lost thousands in my lifetime and close friends as well including my wife.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
CIV:  Good.  You might want to share that knowledge of yours with me.

XO_Cmdr_Jakuharrr says:
*CEO*: Acknowledge, keep an eye out for power fluctuations.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams_MacLeod says:
CO: Captain, at present speed we should reach the edge of Cormanii space in 12 days.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::nods as the XO answers the comm::

CEO_Ltjg_Cerdan says:
*XO*: Understood.

XO_Cmdr_Jakuharrr says:
::logs the CEO report::

CIV_Cdt_Campbell says:
::She looks up at the CO and wonders how she can share her knowledge of Diplomacy:: CO: Umm.. sure sir.

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::looks serious as she listens to Lomax::  CSO: I keep forgetting.  Perhaps you do know what it is like.  And I'd like to apologize for my curt behavior before.  I'm never like that.  It's just been...difficult lately, personally speaking.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  Understood.  ::doesn't really want to get there::

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::notices the resemblance to O'Mallory and the accent as she sits explaining::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams_MacLeod says:
::sees the look of concern in Mackie's eyes::

CSO_LtCmdr_Lomax says:
::Nods slightly:: CMO: You know that they say time will heal? It will but not much. Best thing to do is to follow through with a CNS and you can always talk to me. El Aurians are great listeners you know. I did lose my wife 125 years ago and that is why I left Starfleet, it has taken me this long to get back to where I was, sorta.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
XO:  Keep running those tactical drills, Commander.  I'm getting really concerned about this right now.  ::thinks "only 12 days to go..."::

XO_Cmdr_Jakuharrr says:
CO: Aye sir.
