Host Tim says:
The Away Team has been carefully investigating the downed Cormanii vessel and examining the surrounding area aware of possible predators.  The sun is setting with about 25 minutes of day light left.

Host Tim says:
The Dublin crew has been working feverishly to repair the ship and tempers are growing short.

Host Tim says:
The long term exposure to the EM field is being to take its toll; telepaths and those that are empathic are aware of a diminishing skill.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: finishes up the last of her tests for the day and closes her bag :: XO: No much light left Commander. I suggest that we make camp for the night.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Sits in ready room awaiting reports.::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Rings the chime to the ready room, doing a Picard pull-down on her uniform jacket::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@::walking toward the shuttle carrying the data banks retrieved from the Cormanii wreck:: Self: Uhm the sun is about to set, not good.
Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Looks up as the doors chime:: Aloud: Enter

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::has his own armload of data rods and computer boards, following Delgado back to the shuttle to offload the cargo::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: looks around the wreckage :: XO: Of course if you want to head back to the ship I wouldn't say no. :: smiles ::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Walks in and approaches the desk, comes to attention:: CO: Can I have a quick word, Captain?

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@CMO:  No, not much light.  ::looks at the tactical officer and shakes her head::  Please see that Harker is ensconced nicely in the shuttle and has her leg propped up.  And check on Leary to see that he has the shuttle prepped to head out...just in case.  I'll call the others in a few minutes.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Pauses a moment and then stands.:: CEO: Yes Ensign?

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@XO: Ma'am, I brought your husband back in one piece. ::smiles::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: nods :: XO: Sure thing. :: heads over to Harker and grabs her arm :: CTO: C'mon there Paige. Time to have a nice long rest inside the shuttle.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: Sir, I've been going over the numbers, and I regret to inform you we won't make your 5 hour window. My teams will need 7 hours to get the ship ready, assuming nothing goes wrong.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::turns to see Quon and Delgado and smiles in relief::  FCO/CNS:  Well, I was going to give you guys a little more time to salvage, but it looks like you're loaded.  Good work!  Let's get that precious stuff into the shuttle.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::grins as he sets the computer hardware into a cargo hutch in the shuttle::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@:: loads the data banks in the shuttle then turns:: XO: May I suggest we head back to the ship to retrieve some data from those chips ma'am?

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: settles Paige in the shuttle and makes her way towards the front :: Leary: Well hi there handsome. You ready to move this bird in a hurry? The XO wants you to prepare for departure.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Resists the urge to raise his voice.:: CEO: I know your doing your best. However, standing here telling me why your not going to get finished I'm sure isn't helping.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::gets into the shuttle herself after taking a last look around and walks over to Quon and Delgado::  FCO/CNS:  Do you think there is more we can use?  If so, we still have some daylight left.  ::glances at Paige and the Doctor then back to the two men::  Do you need help?

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
CEO: All available manpower has been made available to your department. See if you can find a way to use them.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@XO: I am not sure at the moment, but in case, if we are still here we may organize another expedition, I don't trust dark night and felines in the same sentence.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: I'm sorry Sir, but I am doing the best I can. I woke up Gamma shift and we have the whole department working on it. I'll get you off this ball of mud in 7 hours Captain, even if I have to get out and push, but I need those 7 hours. I know you only want to have to do this once. I just thought you should be informed Sir.

Host CPO_Leary says:
@CMO: Yes ma'am, we'll be ready.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@XO: I'm not sure if this means anything, Tessa, but does G-N-A-R-F mean anything to you?

Host CPO_Leary says:
@::Turns to the console and begins the start up procedure.::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@FCO: I don't either, but what we bring back might help us get off this planet and I would hate to waste energy again.  ::rubs her head and looks at Quon questioningly::  ~~~CNS: The crew really need some encouragement.  And I'm afraid I do too.  I am getting worried.~~~

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: smiles at Leary and then moves back to check on Paige again and sees that she's fast asleep already :: Self: That was fast.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::tilts her head at the strange word:: CNS:  'Gnarf'...maybe some great hero of the Cormanii?

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Moves around the desk, and puts a hand on the young Ensign's shoulder.:: CEO: Do your best Chief. I'll stop down and check on you in a while. ::Looks unblinking into the chiefs face.::

Host CPO_Leary says:
@Thinks: ::Handsome? Is this Ensign really interested in a crusty old Chief?::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@XO: We took data chips from sensors, navigation and the command chair. Hopefully this is enough, but if you have another idea I can make another run there.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: Aye Sir, I was thinking I'd be more useful on deck 7 than keeping your chair warm, but I wanted to thank you for the honor. If there was nothing else, there's a radiation suit waiting for me.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@~~~XO: I have been concerned about the others too...~~~ ::takes a deep breath, finding that it's taking more concentration and effort to speak telepathically::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@<Leary> XO: Ready to depart on your order ma'am.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Nods:: CEO: Yes, I have the Con. Return to engineering.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::shakes her head no at the pilot::  FCO:  No...no idea since I didn't go in there.  But if there was more to remove I was giving you permission.  Otherwise, please take the pilot's seat and Leary, there, will copilot.  ::speaks up:: All: If everyone could take a seat, we'll be heading back to the ship now.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: reaches down to stow her bag and almost falls but catches herself in time :: Self: Oh my, that was odd. :: sits down ::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Turns and moves toward the door with the Chief.::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: On my way Sir. ::Salutes, does a smart about-face, and leaves the Ready Room and heads for the turbolift:: TL: Deck 7.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Steps out onto the bridge.::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@:: stops thinking for a moment, then shakes his head:: XO: No ma'am, I can't say more until we don't analyze what we have, and for that we need a serious computer. ::moves to the pilot seat::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: sits back for a moment to clear her head ::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@~~~CNS: You are having trouble 'hearing', aren't you?  It isn't my imagination that I feel a little mushy 'voiced' lately.~~~  ::the lessening, even a little, of her strong psionic mindvoice feels very disconcerting::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@Leary: Ready to go? I may need to talk to you for a sec once we are back.

Host Tim says:
<Duty OPS>CO: Still nothing from the Away Team Skipper.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::nods to Tessa as he settles himself on a seat in the shuttle::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Steps off the TL on Deck 7 and gets a status report from her teams as she gets into a radiation suit and prepares to go to work on the Warp Core::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@<Leary>FCO: All systems are active sir. And yes I would like to talk to you as well.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::takes a seat beside her husband and then leans forward:: FCO: We can leave whenever you're ready.  ::sits back and takes a deep breath, her stomach feeling a bit queasy again::  CMO:  Doctor, would you try to hail the Dublin, please?

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
Duty OPS: Understood. ::Looks at chronometer.:: Advise me if you make contact.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: shakes her head slightly and then replies :: XO: I'll try ma'am.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@:: activates thrusters and the ionic drives and takes off:: XO: Taking off now.

Host Tim says:
<Duty OPS>CO: Aye sir.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::asks quietly::  CNS:  On the Cormanii ship, did you find evidence of them?  I mean skeletons like on the Klingon ship?

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@Leary: Please double check our energy levels and keep me informed at any time, if you see we are consuming too much of it warn me as well.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Turns the bridge over to another duty officer and steps into the lift.::

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::speaks quietly to Tessa:: XO: Bones were strewn everywhere we went. The crew had been decimated by some sort of animal. No life forms were found during the search.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: taps her combadge :: *Dublin*: Dublin, this is the away team. Are you receiving? Repeat, are you receiving?

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Hops into the Warp Core and proceeds to start replacing that pesky broken dilithium crystal alignment bracket::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Steps off the lift on deck seven and walks toward the core.::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::breathes easier::  CNS:  I have respect for all humanoid life, but...I truly hoped none of the Cormanii was able to survive until this time.  Although, I don't know that they could be much of a threat here living primitively that long.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@All: ETA to the Dublin is 15 minutes.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :; tries again to reach the ship :: *Dublin*: Danara to Dublin. Are you receiving transmissions?

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Sees the chief leaning into the articulation frame making adjustments.::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: turns to the first officer :: XO: I'm not getting any response to my hails.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Notices the CO:: CO: Um... Sir, I would stand this close without a rad suit, Doctor Danara will be very upset with you...

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::studies Tessa's eyes, knowing that it pains her to feel that way towards even the Cormanii, especially after seeing the memory she shared with him earlier about destroying one of their ships:: XO: I see...I wish I knew the motives for the Cormanii and what they do.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@FCO:  Thank you, Delgado.  Let me know if you see anything unusual on the sensors in the meantime.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@CMO:  Hmmm, I was afraid of that.  Try to hail them every 5 minutes.  I know Captain Cerdan will be worried.  He was before we left.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@XO: Aye aye Ma'am.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@XO: Will do.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@CMO: You need altitude for communications. I will climb a little more Danara.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Looks up at the Chief:: CEO: You need a hand?  You know I started out in engineering.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Tosses the broken bracket out with a disgusted gesture and starts trying to clean up the area and fit the new one::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: tries to relax a little to make the time pass quickly ::

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::lowers his head, and closes his ruby red eyes, then begins to feel an odd whim of....depression::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Steps back as the parts hit the deck.::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@<Leary> All: I saw those grazing beasts again once we got some distance from the wreck.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::turns her attention back to Quon::  CNS:  That is something that I could never understand.  It seems they are spatial nomads that pilfer any type technology they can.  I believe there was a group of people on Earth called 'gypsies' that had the same habit.  Their home world was reputed to be extremely harsh.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@FCO: Gael, just be careful.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: As long as you get yourself properly suited up Sir, I'm not going to be the one to tell Doctor Danara you got in here unprotected. You know, this is really pathetic... they just replaced all this stuff during the refit...

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: rubs her left temple as a dull ache begins ::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::lays a hand on Quon's sleeve::  ~~~CNS: Are you alright?  I just felt...~~~  ::rubs her temple as a shaft of pain hits her::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Walks over toward a locker:: CEO: I'll give you a hand, hold on.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@CMO: If I go high now then I can glide my way back to the ship and we can save some energy. We should be able to hail them in a few seconds.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::seems to be caught in a bit of a trance as his eyes begin to water::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@FCO: One piece Gael. Get us back in one piece.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Grabs a suit and struggles with it a bit.:: CEO: Been a while since I've worn one of these.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: Thanks Sir. Well, at least I know why the Warp Core tanked... I thought it was the EM field, but it was the bracket failing. Once it did, the safeties kicked in and shut it down when it wasn't aligning the streams properly anymore.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@CMO: Pity, I always liked bikinis.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::shakes his arm, becoming concerned and whispers urgently::  CNS:  Quon?!  Please answer me...

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@FCO: Bikinis?

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Offers the CO a hand up::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Nods and puts out a hand to the chief.:: CEO: Pull me up, I can hold it while you secure the mounting.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@CMO: One piece swimming suits are not of my liking. You have comm now by the way.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ hears Tessa and turns :: XO: Problem Commander?

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::pulls him up to the mounting::

Host Duty_OPS says:
*AT*: Away Team. Report in.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::snaps his eyes open and takes in a heavy inhale of air and nods his head as if nothing was wrong:: XO: Gypsies...yes, interesting analogy.

Host Duty_OPS says:
*AT*: Away Team, this is the Dublin. Report in please.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@*Duty Ops*: We are on our way back, 6 minutes to landing on Dublin.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Gets his body into position and grabs the frame.:: CEO: IS it aligned?

Host Duty_OPS says:
*AT*: Away Team, good to hear from you.  Will inform the Captain.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::hears the doctor but keeps her eyes on Quon::  CMO:  I'm not sure...but the comm.  Could you give the Captain a briefing and let him know we're flying home.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::a tear rolls down his face, but is apparently not sad at all as he reaches up and rubs his eyes::

Host Duty_OPS says:
*CO*: Captain, the Away Team just reported in; should be here in 6 minutes.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: Not yet, Sir, I needed to clean the mounting area, some of the bracket melted when the alignment shifted and the streams went haywire. I'm ready to align it now.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@*Duty OPS*: Tell him to warm up some water we need a shower. 

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@XO: Sure Commander, but maybe I should take a look at the counselor?

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Starts to put the new bracket into place::

Host Duty_OPS says:
*AT*: ::Chuckles:: Might be able to accommodate that sir.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Looks up at the chief as the COM sounds.:: *Duty OPS*: Send Commander Jakiel to me in engineering when they are secure.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::looks confused as he glances at Tessa then Danara, and back:: XO/CMO: You both looked alarmed. Is something amiss?

Host Duty_OPS says:
*CO*: Aye sir, send the Exec to you in engineering.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@*Duty OPS*: I knew I could count on you. All: Four minutes to landing.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
*CO*: Captain, can you hear me? This is Doctor Danara.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: Well, there's that bit of good news anyway Sir... they are coming back. ::grunts and wiggles the frame into place and starts aligning it::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Forces the bracket to one side.:: CEO: That should give you enough room .

Host Duty_OPS says:
*AT*: Commander Jakiel, the Captain requests your presence in engineering when you arrive.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: That's got it Sir... thanks.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@CMO:  Once we get back on the ship.  I'm not sure.  CNS: We'll talk later.  ::reaches to wipe the tear off his face and tells him quietly::  CNS:  You were crying...I felt sadness... more like depression and then...gone!

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: moves to Quon :: CNS: Are you alright? You seem a little distracted?

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Shows some strain on his face as the Chief secures the frame.::

Host Duty_OPS says:
*AT*: Ensign Danara, the Captain is in engineering.  I can patch you through if you desire.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::sighs::  CNS:  I...I don't know if this is more in the realm of what occurred in the past?  You don't remember feeling that way?

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: That's got it Sir, it's secured. Now all I have to do is tweak the alignment with the spanner... thanks.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@CMO:  Doctor, the comm.  The Captain needs an update, please.   Thank you.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@All: Two minutes to landing and beginning descent, please stay seated.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::shakes his head:: XO: No...that doesn't sound right. But my eyes feel irritated. Must've been the dusty air from within the Cormanii ship. CMO: I feel fine... ::looks back at Tessa:: ...I hope?

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
*Duty OPS*: Don't bother him then. Just let him know that we're on the way back and I need to see him as soon as possible.

Host Duty_OPS says:
*AT*: Will do Doctor.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@:: aligns the shuttle with the ship's beacon and reduces speed while lowering the altitude::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Starts aligning the frame and bracket with a spanner and calipers::

Host Duty_OPS says:
*CO*: Captain, Doctor Danara says she needs to see you as soon as they return.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@XO: The Captain is in engineering and he does know that we are on the way Commander.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
CEO: Ok Chief, What’s next? ::Swings his legs over the frame and starts to get down.::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: Well Sir, I can finish this if you want to double-check the injectors to make sure they are nominal?

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@:: Lands in shuttle bay:: All: We have landed as you can see.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Taps his badge again>.::*Duty OPS*: Send her down here as well.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::squeezes his arm fondly and looks deeply into his eyes, concerned::  CNS:  This planet...if it weren't interfering with my abilities.  It may just be a complication of that.  ::looks at the Doctor and nods, but feels a little irritated::  CMO:  Thank you, Doctor.  But next time, if you would do as I request I would appreciate it.

Host Duty_OPS says:
::Feels like a secretary:: Self: Wonder if this is what Miss Daniels does all day.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@CMO:  The Captain would have let you know whether he wanted an update.

Host Duty_OPS says:
*CO*: Aye sir.

Host Duty_OPS says:
*AT*: Doctor, please meet the Captain in engineering.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@FCO: Your skills are most appreciated, Mr. Delgado. Thank you. ::goes to the aft hatch and opens it::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :; raises an eyebrow at the XO but says nothing ::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Nods to the Chief and puts his work glove back on.:: CEO: If everything shut down in time it shouldn't be a problem.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
*Duty OPS*: Understood.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: As far as I know there was only some minor scorching to the casing and a few stray hits in the lining Sir, looks like the safeties were on top of it.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
CNS: No problem sir, I will bring the data banks on science lab 2.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
FCO: I will meet you there shortly to assist.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
FCO: Delgado, thank you for the ride...good flying.  CMO:  Doctor, all of the away team will need to be checked immediately.  This planet is affecting us in unusual ways.  All:  Everyone grab what you can of the scavenged parts.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Swings open the panel and looks inside, while tapping a console.::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Finishes aligning the bracket to the frame and starts putting the articulator in place to hold the crystal once they are ready::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
CNS: I think we are going to get a physical first, even if I would prefer a shower.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
:: nods to the XO and picks up her bag and specimen containers and head out of the shuttle ::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
CEO: Doesn't look too bad in here, just a little cleaning up before we check the alignment should do it.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
FCO:  No, not first, Mister Delgado.  Briefings are paramount, but we do need to get checked as soon as we can.

Host Duty_OPS says:
::Looks over the comm readings and enters them into Cadet Daniels' database for analysis.::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
CMO:  Doctor, I overheard that you will be going to engineering to brief the Captain?

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
<Leary>: Please perform standard maintenance on the shuttle and report any anomaly you may find, I will be interested in data on energy consumption as well.

Host Duty_OPS says:
::scratches chin while trying to determine a pattern in the comm interruptions::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
:: hands the specimens over to a science officer with instructions to put them in isolation for now ::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: I do appreciate the help Sir, I know you have better things to be doing than this. Of course we are doing dry dock level work on a ball of mud in the middle of no place with tools that won't work unless we plug them into the EPS grid with extension cords, so we can use all the help we can get. ::grins::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
XO: Aye ma'am, data chips and debriefing first. Shower way later.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
XO: Yes Commander. I'm heading there immediately.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Laughs aloud at the chief.:: CEO: I need this ship ready to fly, What could be more important Chief?

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
XO: I will be in the science lab with the ensign if you need me.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: Did you send out those shuttles on that mapping mission yet Sir? I'm pretty sure if we run them in a grid with EM scanners on and using a radio beacon on each and with the ship too we can map out those weak spots.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
CMO: Good.  And tell our engineer that we have extra chips and spare parts she might want to take a look at.  In fact...  FCO:  Mister Delgado, inspect those parts immediately.  Anything useful we will need right away.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
XO: Consider it done ma'am. 

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
XO: Of course ma'am, but aren't you coming along to see the Captain?

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
CNS:  Yes, he will need help.  Inform me right away.  ::lowers her voice as she moves closer to Quon::  and we will talk tonight.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
*CO*:  Captain?

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
CEO: Most of the area has been mapped.

Host Duty_OPS says:
::Looks over at the science console noting the pretty young yeoman insuring the data from the two shuttles recording the EM field::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
CNS: After you sir.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Finally hears the communication.:: *XO*: Commander?  You have returned?

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: Sounds good Sir, because I'd hate to have to do this all over again. ::rolls eyes at the thought::

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
::nods with smile to Tessa and leads the way to the science lab, glad to spend some more time in that place again::

Host Duty_OPS says:
Self: Wonder if she wants to share some rations by moonlight?

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
::follows the CNS with a crate full of chips::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Starts testing the articulation of the frame and clamp and arm::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
*CO*:  Yes.  Were you worried.  ::smiles into the comm, 'knowing' he was, then winces::  We're all still in one piece and bearing gifts.  The Cormanii ship was a good stop.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
:: waits for a moment for the XO to answer ::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
*CO*: Ensign Danara is on her way to brief you.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
FCO: Need help with that crate, Ensign?

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
*XO*: Please....Join me in engineering. when you get things secured.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
*CO*: Delgado and our good Counselor will be sorting through the parts we brought back.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
XO: Not joining us Commander?

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
*CO*:  Yes sir, will do.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
CNS: No thank you sir, besides gotta lose some weight, I am getting a “handles” problem. ::chuckles::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: OK Captain, things look good here, I think I'm ready for the dilithium crystals now please.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Thinks a moment. and frowns.:: *XO* : Understood.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::turns to Danara:: CMO: Well, mind the company to engineering?  We can both see how they're faring down there.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: THE SHUTTLES RECORDING THE EM FIELD ALSO REPORT THERE ARE STILL NO HUMANOID LIFE SIGNS OTHER THAN DUBLIN CREW.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
CEO: Ok Chief . ::Taps a panel and it slowly opens.::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
XO: A pleasure Ma'am. :: motions the way :: After you Commander.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
FCO: Hmm...I see. Have you ever tried a Klingon calisthenics program? I have one on file in the holodeck database that I brought with me from the USS Delphyne. I will introduce you to it when we return to space, if you wish.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Opens the clamps and gets ready to fit the crystals into place::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::enters the turbolift and visibly relaxes::  CMO: This planet...I feel both relaxed and tense on it.  You're empathic, if I'm not mistaken?  Part Minaran?

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Grabs the first crystal and slowly hands it up to Chief Hembrook.::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
CNS: Sure counselor, is it very violent?

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Carefully takes the crystal and slowly fits it into the clamp and secures it::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
XO: Half Minaran and half El Aurian, so empathic and a long memory. :: grins ::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
CEO: Amazing, all the energy in this small crystal.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
FCO: I will not lie...it is quite so, if you take it beyond the lowest challenge setting. Otherwise, it is quite...fulfilling.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: Yes Sir... bombard it with a few atoms of duterium and antideuterium and it's quite a light show.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
CNS: I will give it a try. Do we have an extensive database about the Cormanii on board sir?

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::smiles wryly::  CMO:  A dangerous combination.  I mention it because I've been noticing a definite muffling of my abilities and an irritating headache to go along.  My husband has also.  I just wondered about you?

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
CMO:  I thought I sensed you were having a bit of difficulty on the shuttle?

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
CEO: Lets hope this light show will get us off this rock.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
:; shifts her feet :: XO: Well I do have this dull throb in my temple, and have been feeling a bit out of it. The EM field is most likely the cause.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
FCO: I am as curious about that as you. But we will learn of the Cormanii together. ::waits at the TL door, waiting for the one good TL to arrive::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Starts testing the crystal by moving it around in the bracket and using a laser to simulate the particle streams, checking the optimum alignment angles::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
XO: I need to get you all checked out and soon.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::nods:: CMO:  I agree.  It is...most perplexing.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: I agree Sir.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
CNS: We may need to modify an optronic reader for these data banks, but it's part of the fun.
