FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
XO: Ma'am I think that if there is someone who knows what is going on in this sector is the personnel of this base.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
FCO: I'm inclined to agree.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
XO:  Would you like me to open a hail to them, Ma'am?

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
::Taps a few buttons on the console and reviews the repair reports of his subordinates that were made on the warp coils some days ago::

COM: Outpost Gamma 7: This is the USS Dublin.

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
XO: Ma'am Gamma 7 is approaching, ETA is 20 minutes. Dropping to impulse in 3 minutes.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
::Wonders what fate has in store for him today::

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
FCO: Acknowledged, get us there and go to a holding pattern nearby.

Host Gamma_OPS says:
@COM: Dublin: Dublin, Gamma 7 here. How may we help you?

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
*EO*: Ensign, step into my office a minute, would you?

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Looks at Gael.::  FCO:  Not much traffic in the area.

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
XO: Holding pattern nearby, yes ma'am. ::drops the ship out of warp and proceeds at full impulse making strange noises with his mouth::

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
COM: Outpost Gamma 7: This is Lieutenant Commander Harker, Executive Officer we're investigating some rather dangerous cargo that found its way to a star base. Sending you the need to know particulars now.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
*CEO*: Aye Ma'am on my way

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
OPS: Send them the required information. Please.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Chuckles at the sound effects Gael is making.::

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
OPS: It's an outpost, a place forgotten by God, pure frontier. I am wondering if they shave. ::grins::

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
::rings chime on the CEO's door::

Host Gamma_OPS says:
@COM: Dublin: Understand Commander. I'll contact our station commander to review the data.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::glances at the FCO who is making odd noises with a somewhat puzzled look.::

*EO*: Enter.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Nods to the XO, and sends the appropriate information, double-checking the data before she hits the send button.::  XO:  On it's way, Commander.

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
::controls the docking beacon and alienate the ship to it:: OPS: Sorry Tayla I got hooked by a holoprogram about motorbike races::

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
*CEO*: You requested to see me Ma'am?

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
EO: Have a seat, Ensign. I'd like to chat about your duties for a few minutes.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Grins.::  FCO:  Hooked on holoprogram worked for you, huh?

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
::sits:: CEO: My duties Ma'am?...Is something wrong?

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
EO: No, not at all, I wanted to assign you some permanent tasks to help streamline things around here.

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
OPS: Love those roaring engines. ::Slows down to half impulse and programs a stable orbit close to the outpost:: XO: 10 minutes and we will be there ma'am.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
COM: Outpost Gamma 7: U.S.S. Dublin out.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
::Nods:: CEO: Ah, and what tasks might those be Ma'am?

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Closes the comm channel with the outpost after the XO ends her comm.::

Host LTCmdr_Burke says:
@COM: Dublin: Dublin, this is Lieutenant Commander Burke, Commander Gamma 7.  I just gave that data a quick read.  How can we help you?

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
TO/SO: See what you two can do with sensors I don't want to be surprised.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
XO:  Ma'am, they're hailing us again.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
<Duty Science Officer>  ::Nods to the XO.::  XO:  Will do.  Reviewing the sensors now, Commander Harker.

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
EO: Well, first I'm going to assign you to be Damage Control Team Leader. If we ever get into a furrball, you are going to be lead on going to fix systems not in Engineering.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
COM: Lt. Commander Burke: We were hoping you'd have some information for us, your closest to our next lead at Delavi.

Host LTCmdr_Burke says:
@COM: Dublin: I will say that the ship name Valkyrie is familiar.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
::Grins:: CEO: Sounds like fun Ma'am.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
<Duty Science Officer> ::Begins to review the sensor scans of the area, keeping an eye on long range and short range sensors.::

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
<Duty_Tac> XO: Aye. ::Starts doing Tactical scans of the area to see if anything looks concerning and to check who is in the neighborhood::

Host LTCmdr_Burke says:
@COM: Harker: The Valkyrie came into this area about once a year.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
COM: Burke: Glad to hear it, anything odd about it?

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
EO: This also means sealing hull breaches, onboard firefighting, and running bypasses, so you better be up-to-speed on your emergency procedures.

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
::control the distance from the station:: Self: Just a little closer. XO: 1 minute to orbit ma'am.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Listens to the communication between the Exec and the outpost personnel, listening for anything that might seem out of the ordinary to her.::

Host LTCmdr_Burke says:
@COM: Harker: Every once in a while they'd stay at least 30 days which is odd for a resupply vessel.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
CEO: Aye Ma'am I believe I already am...I’m ready for anything fate can throw at me

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
Com: Burke: That is odd, those guys are usually jumping around a lot. Were you able to gather any clues?

Host LTCmdr_Burke says:
@COM: Harker: Clues? To what Commander?

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
Com: Burke: Why they may of wished to hang around for so long.

Host LTCmdr_Burke says:
@COM: Harker: Will you be staying at the station long Commander?

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
COM: Burke: Just long enough to get the information we need, we're on to Delavi to investigate there.

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
::turns off impulse engines and brings the ship to a full stop:: XO: We are arrived ma'am.

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
EO: You'd be surprised what fate throws at this ship, but anyway... I'm also making you Senior Engineer, so it will be your job to check all the repair jobs and diagnostics and make up a shift report for me to review.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::nods to FCO.::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Wonders if there is a pattern to any other vessels that have been docking with the outpost on a regular basis while the Valkyrie is here.::

Host LTCmdr_Burke says:
@COM: Harker: Ah, Delavi.  Now that is interesting.  When the Valkyrie had its extended stays it was reported to be in the Delavi area.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
CEO: It's an honor Lieutenant. You've placed the ship in capable hands

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
EO: I'm sure I have. I'll be taking the time freed up by your work to do all the fun administrative stuff, and to do more supervising than before. However, I'll also be doing projects and checking on you from time to time.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
Com: Burke: Well that seems yet another arrow pointing to Delavi. Do you have anymore information on the Valkyrie?

Host LTCmdr_Burke says:
@COM: Harker: I can have our records concerning the Valkyrie sent over if you wish.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
COM: Burke: Thank would be ideal Commander Burke. Is there anything you need before we continue?

Host LTCmdr_Burke says:
@COM: Harker: Sure you and your crew don't want to lay over a while? We seldom see friendly faces this far out.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
CEO: Making sure I don't leave a PB&J on top of a plasma manifold eh Ma'am?...::Grins::

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
EO: Something like that. I don't do white glove inspections, but I expect things to be shipshape and everything to be in order. The quickest way to my bad side is to do a bad repair job or leave the place a mess. Are we clear?

Host LTCmdr_Burke says:
@::Muttering is heard in the back ground, then...:: COM: Harker: You have any new holo programs?  The ones we have are rather dated.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
CEO: Yes Ma'am perfectly and utmost clear ::wonders whether she understood his attempt at cracking a joke::

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
XO: Ask them if they like motorbikes. ::grins::

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
COM: Burke: I understand. We'll compile what we have as well as any new entertainment like literature and such.

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
EO: Most of the team down here are good folks, and we have been through a lot together. I've already got them assigned in groups that work well together. Watch out though, they like to do practical jokes on the rookies.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
COM: Burke: That will take just a little time and I have a request to run by my CO. Will contact you again Commander. Dublin Out.

Host LTCmdr_Burke says:
@COM: Harker: That would be very nice Commander.  For the record should I log in that you're on the way to Delavi?

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
COM: Burke: Hold off on that for moment if you would. I need to brief my CO. Harker out.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
CEO: Practical jokes eh?...well then guess they haven't had a piece of the joker...it was my nickname back at the academy

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
*CEO*: Harker to Hembrook. The poor souls here are starving for entertainment can you have someone compile all our newer items and send it over?

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
EO: Just don't go overboard. A little mischief is ok... but nothing disruptive...

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
*CO*: Sir, we've a request from the station to stay for a bit they don't seem to get many visitors, shall we press on or invite them over for dinner or something?

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
CEO: Yes Ma'am understood.

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
*XO*: Will do, I have just the man for the job.

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
OPS: Isn't holographic entertainment your department competence? Nice you just skipped a tedious task.

Host Tim says:
<Capt Cerdan>*XO*: You may certainly extend our compliments and offer a diner for their command staff.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Giggles at the FCO.::  FCO:  Shhhh!  ::Holds her finger to her lips.::  Let's see what Gin... er Lieutenant Hembrook comes up with.  ::Smiles.::

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
OPS: "How to change lubricants to the warp core 101" I am sure. ::smiles::

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
*CO*: Thank You Sir. I figure a few hours after six months won't slow us down too much. Harker out.

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
EO: See what you can dig up for those poor sods on the station as far as holoprograms, would you? Then you can head back to checking those diagnostics.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
OPS: Open another channel to the station.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Nods, and opens the channel.::  XO:  Channel open.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
CEO: Yes Ma'am...should I send them to you to review or directly to OPS for data transfer?

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
OPS: Even if I think they may need the complete series of "Orion Dancers" from Lieutenant Takeshi. It would help spend the time I guess.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
COM: Commander Burke: We're compiling that entertainment for you now but in the meantime I've been given permission to extend a dinner invitation for you and your senior officers with our officers.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
FCO:  And here I thought you wouldn't want to share that program with anyone!  ::Laughs out loud.::

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
EO: I'll trust you to get them the programs, just send them copies of the latest stuff, the last year or so. If you have any questions though, my door is always open.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Begins to make preparations for her department to host a dinner invitation to the outpost personnel.::

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
OPS: I have always been a generous fella, besides it is not mine, but Rico's. I am a good boy.

Host LTCmdr_Burke says:
@COM: Harker: Commander, please extend our compliments to the Captain and tell him we accept. ::The excitement is easily heard in his voice.::

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
CEO: Thanks Lieutenant ::stands up and leaves with a PADD in hand::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
FCO:  Of course you are a good boy, cause you know what would happen if you weren't.  ::Winks and then giggles.::

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::a smile in her voice.:: COM: Commander Burke: Thought you'd like the change in scenery. See you at 1700. Harker out.

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
XO: Hey we even have a chef aboard, I wonder when it was the last time they ate non replicated food.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Sends the information for her department to prepare a lavish dinner at 1700 hours.::  XO:  I've made the arrangements for the dinner engagement, Commander.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
::Begins compiling the list:: Self: Now lets see here we've got a Midsummers Nightmare, The Breton woods project, How to lose a guy on Vulcan, The Andorian Candidate...these would all be good choices

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::once its closed.:: TO: See what you can compile about our destination. I want to be ready to move as soon as they leave. FCO/OPS: Good idea FCO, OPS well done.

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
<Duty_Tac> XO: Scopes are clear Sir, a few Cardie freighters at maximum LRS, but nothing threatening.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
TO: Thanks for that.

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
<Duty_Tac> XO: Aye Sir. ::nods and resumes watching the sensors::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Receives the latest situation report from the station, and forwards it to the Captain's Ready Room for review.::

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
*CEO*: Gina if you have time please work with the CTO I want all our weapons sneaky and otherwise ready when we leave here.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Grumbles under her breath.::  Self:  Not Chef Bordeaux .. I do NOT want to deal with him again.

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
*XO*: Aye Sir, I'll have the bag of tricks ready to go and the ninja stuff on standby.

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
XO: Some Cardie faction may be behind all that, and we are so close to their backyard.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
*CEO*: Never doubted you Chief, Harker out.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
FCO: That’s possible, well this slight delay will give us a little time to get the CEO's and CTO's bags of tricks ready and we'll be helping out the lighthouse staff.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
::ponders:: Self: hmmm oh lets put in the Federations Funniest Ambassadorial Bloopers, and then of course the classics "4 ways to Lubricate a warp core" "Warp Speed for Dummies" and oooh this ones classic "How to pull a practical joke on the entire senior staff" ::Grins evilly::

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
XO: I think we are close to the area where the Valkyrie got all their merchandise. What remains to be determined, I guess is who gave them the Troles and why.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
FCO: Well soon as we're ready we'll head on to Delavi quick as can. I wonder if the CEO can work out a legal version of cloak...::the last part is more to herself then anything...

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
OPS: Send a note to the senior staff about the dinner, they are expected to attend.

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
XO: Incognito investigation?  Would we need our fedora hat and a trench coat? ::smiles::

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::grins:: FCO: Sometimes...

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
::finishes compiling the list of Holoprograms:: *OPS*: Cadet Daniels the list of Holoprograms is ready to be uploaded to the station

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
XO:  Yes, Ma'am.  Right away.  ::Prepares a message to all senior staff about the dinner, and forwards to the appropriate personnel.  Marks the message urgent.::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
*EO*:  Aye, I'll get permission from the Exec to upload and will forward with her permission.  Thanks, Ensign. D.  ::Smiles at the new nickname she just gave the EO cause she can't say his name.::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
XO:  Commander Harker, holoprograms from engineering are ready for upload to the station.  Would you like me to communicate that message to them?

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
OPS: Go ahead.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
*OPS*: No Problemo  ::Returns to reviewing the diagnostics

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Opens the comm channel.::  COM: Outpost Gamma 7:  This is the USS Dublin.  We have prepared a list of holoprograms for your enjoyment, and they are ready for upload to your station.

Host Gamma_OPS says:

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
COM: Outpost Gamma 7:  Sending file.  ::Hits the uplink button.::  Enjoy, Gamma 7.

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
::Piggybacks a copy of the daes Irae onto the outgoing transmission of the holodeck programs::

Host Gamma_OPS says:
@COM: Dublin: Got it Dublin and thanks. ::wonders if the Dublin OPS is as sweet as she sounds? Hopes he can go to that dinner.::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Watches the progress of the upload.::  *EO*:  File is uploading now, Ens. D.

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
::Waits for the transmission to finish and then sends a signal to activate the daes irae... and sends it into the commo logs and sensor logs and manifests from past visits, looking for anything that has been erased, altered, or concealed::

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
*OPS*: Thank you cadet.

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
XO: With your permission Ma'am I would go to the Shuttle bay. My back up can take over now that we are in orbit.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::As things once again settle down, Harker tries not to pace the bridge.::.

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
FCO: What’s to be done in the shuttle bay?

FCO_LtJG_Delgado says:
XO: Maintenance, need to check a few things with the maintenance crew.

Host Gamma_OPS says:
@COM: Dublin: We have a solid copy Dublin. Again, thanks and see you at dinner.

CEO_LtJG_Hembrook says:
<Duty_Tac> ::continues scanning the area, watching the local traffic, and does another weapons and shield diagnostic::

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
FCO: Don't you take a break? ::she shakes her head.:: Well don't be late for the dinner. Permission granted.

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
FCO: Professionalism on the bridge please. ::she leans over to whisper to the FCO. Not unkindly.::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
XO:  Commander, there was this strange piggy-back message that was sent with the uplink.  Did you authorize something to be sent with the uplink?  ::Smiles at the FCO's touch as he walks past.::

EO_Ens_Dostoyevsky says:
::rubs the bridge of his nose showing obvious exhaustion::

Host XO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
