Host Frank_SM says:
The USS Europa is just arriving at Starbase 384.  The lack of any major progress with rebuilding instantly reminds the crew of the tragedy that recently happened here.  The station has been stabilized and is still being utilized.

::At the helm making a final approach towards SB 384::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:

::Sitting at the Science console, seeing emotions, and not really understanding::

CTO_Hexx says:
::At Tactical.::

CEO_McGregor says:
::At Engineering 1 ::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
FCO: Turn off the viewscreen.

CMO_Calahan says:
::sighs as she walks from the surgical recovery to her main office and slides into her chair to finish up some charting....::

FCO_Voraye says:
CO: Aye, ma'am. ::Switches the viewscreen to a calming view of the beaches of Central America::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
FCO: Are you needed at your station while we get into position at the Starbase?

FCO_Voraye says:
CO: I could put it on autopilot. Or have a lemming come out and drive. Why do you ask?

CTO_Hexx says:
::Rolls his eyes::

CEO_McGregor says:
*Engineering*  Go ahead and start the warp core diagnostics now lads

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
FCO: Please do so, I have something for you.... in a moment.

FCO_Voraye says:
CO: Okay....::Summons an underling Helmsmen, stands from the chair::

FCO_Voraye says:
<RFCO_Joystick> ::Scurries into position at the helm::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
*Senior Staff*: Report to the bridge, please.

CEO_McGregor says:
::Turns and looks at the Captain::

FCO_Voraye says:
<RFCO> FCO: I heard that lemming comment. I resent that remark.

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::smiles at McGregor::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::looks at the two FCOs:: RFCO: I don't think he meant it personally. ::smiles::

FCO_Voraye says:
::Blinks, taken aback:: RFCO: Forgive me, joystick. I meant no offense.

CMO_Calahan says:
::rolls her eyes:: Self: Just as soon as I get a moment for charting. ::sighs and walks out to see Dyani:: MO Doylan: That means you too, missy....

TO_Grey-feather says:
:: leaves armory heads for the bridge ::

FCO_Voraye says:
<RFCO> ::Nods head, begins docking procedures:: OPS_Hardee: Do we have dock clearance yet?

CMO_Calahan says:
<MO Doylan> ::rolls her eyes:: CMO: Yeah yeah... ::smiles to herself as she walks out...well, at least the most charming CEO of them all will be there..::

CMO_Calahan says:
::senses Dyani's emotions and chuckles to herself as they walk into the TL:: TL: bridge.

FCO_Voraye says:
<OPS_Hardee> RFCO: Clearance granted, upper pylon 2.

FCO_Voraye says:
<RFCO> ::Nods head:: All: Making final approach on pylon 2. ::Engages course, maneuvering thrusters only::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::looks at the CEO:: CEO: This concerns you too. ::smiles::

CEO_McGregor says:
CO: Aye sir

TO_Grey-feather says:
:: arrives on the bridge::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::nods at the TO as he arrives, waits patiently for her CMO::

CSO_Enki says:
::Curious as to what is going on... and why Captain Llewellyn handles crew business on the Bridge.  Very unusual::

FCO_Voraye says:
::"Senses" the anticipatory air of the room::

Host Frank_SM says:
Action: The USS Europa docks at one of the temporary docking facilities. It is not even a part of the main station.

CMO_Calahan says:
<MO_Doylan> ::steps out onto the bridge, and glances around before she walks all the way down and smiles at the Captain, then spots the CEO::

CEO_McGregor says:
::Sees Dyani enter the bridge and grins from ear to ear::

CMO_Calahan says:
::walks out and looks at Heather with a small shake of her head:: CO: Why is it that every time I get a moment to sit down and chart you call me up here or come bug me? ::looks dead serious for a few moments, then smiles::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::smiles at Keely:: CMO: Please, stand with the CEO and FCO, front and center.

CMO_Calahan says:
<MO_Doylan> ::laughs to herself mentally at the CEO's puppy dog smile, then turns serious and stands off to the side::

CMO_Calahan says:
::raises an eyebrow and moves as instructed::

CMO_Calahan says:
<MO_Doylan> ::smiles, hands clasped behind her loosely::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
FCO/CEO/CMO: I want all to be witness to the fine job these three officers have done in service to the Europa. Each of you have been reviewed by the promotion board and been seen fit for an increase in rank. ::smiles and calls her yeoman over to attend to her by the CEO::

CEO_McGregor says:
::Tries to wipe the smile off his face::

CMO_Calahan says:
::blinks in surprise::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
<Yeoman Riella> ::hands Heather the CEO's box with the pip in it:: 

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
CEO: To bestow upon you the full rank of Lieutenant.

FCO_Voraye says:
::Feels the need to stand at attention, does so::

CEO_McGregor says:
CO: Thank you Captain

TO_Grey-feather says:
:: stands at attention towards the back watching ::

CMO_Calahan says:
<MO_Doylan> ::clasped hands up by her mouth as she grins....positively wonderful...today has been such a day already....::

CEO_McGregor says:
::Can't hide the smile any longer, sneaks a peak in Dyani's direction

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
CEO: You earned it... ::walks over to the FCO:: FCO: And you... I always thought you'd forgotten your pip... you've always done such a great job. ::takes the box from her yeoman and hands it to the FCO:: To Lieutenant Junior Grade.

FCO_Voraye says:
::Smiles:: CO: Thank you. ::Feels a slight bit of blush::

CMO_Calahan says:
<MO_Doylan> ::winks at the CEO subtly when he looks her way::

CSO_Enki says:
::Sits calmly, without any emotion on her face... such a show::

CEO_McGregor says:
::Can't wait to see Dyani, if only for a moment or two::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::turns to her long time friend the CMO, after a smile at the FCO:: CMO: And you... Lieutenant Commander. ::hands her the box, and just cannot help herself, gives her a hug::

CMO_Calahan says:
::is caught off-guard at first but recovers and gives Heather a small hug in return:: CO: Thanks, Heather. ::whispered in Gaelic::

FCO_Voraye says:
::Fidgets with the box subtly::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
All: I am very proud to be your commander. Keep up the good work

CMO_Calahan says:
::nods in response::

FCO_Voraye says:
::Thinks to self, "Aw, it's a Kodak Moment."::

CEO_McGregor says:
::Nods::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::smiles:: All: alright... you guys know the drill... back to work... ::teasing:: and drinks are on you later in the lounge.

CEO_McGregor says:
::Walks over to Dyani with a big smile on his face::

FCO_Voraye says:
::Taps RFCO Joystick on the shoulder::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
All: Everyone have their resupply requests in to Operations?

FCO_Voraye says:
<RFCO> FCO: Congratulations, Lieutenant.

FCO_Voraye says:
RFCO: Thank you. ::Sits at the helm::

FCO_Voraye says:
CO: I do. One of those newfangled shuttlecraft things.

TO_Grey-feather says:
:: turns and heads back for the TL to return to the armory ::

CEO_McGregor says:
CO: Not yet sir but it's on it's way

FCO_Voraye says:
<OPS> ::Reviews resupply requests::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::raises her eyebrow at the FCO:: FCO: A new shuttlecraft? ::doesn’t remember signing off on that one::

FCO_Voraye says:
CO: Pipe dreams, Captain. Pipe dreams.

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::nods, feeling a bit relieved::

CTO_Hexx says:
TO: Hol up a sec there, I'll come along.

CEO_McGregor says:
Dyani: Hello, I'm glad to see you finally

TO_Grey-feather says:
:: stops and waits for the CTO :: CTO: Yes sir

CTO_Hexx says:
::Joins the TO in the lift.::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::walks over to Enki:: CSO: I thought you looked confused when we arrived at the Starbase. Did you have any questions?

TO_Grey-feather says:
:: instructs the TL to proceed to deck with the armory::  CTO: Sir I am headed back to the armory what deck did you want to stop at?

CSO_Enki says:
::Looks up at the Captain::  CO: Well, ma'am, I noticed a lot of emotions riding high as we were on approach... was this crew responsible, or involved in, what happened here?

CMO_Calahan says:
<MO_Doylan> ::smiles:: CEO: I know me too. Congratulations...I'd give you a hug or something but I'm sure it would be inappropriate..

FCO_Voraye says:
CO: Ma'am, with your permission I'd like to go locate our new Operations Officer.

CTO_Hexx says:
TO: I'll just tag along with you.  With all the goin's on, we’ve howdied but we ain't shook yet.  Name's Hexx, Cable Hexx.  ::Offers a hand::

CEO_McGregor says:
::Sees Dyani talking to the Doc, and walks to Engineering 1 and calls up his supply requests::

CMO_Calahan says:
::turns to face the CSO and waits to see what Heather will say in response, the fire in her eyes a bit dimmer with control::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
CSO: Well we were here when a terrorist attack happened to this Starbase. The admiral was known by much of the older crew... and he is presently declared dead.

CEO_McGregor says:
Dyani: It wouldn’t be later when we're alone though

TO_Grey-feather says:
:: turns to shake the CTO's hand :: CTO: Yes sir, I am Joshua Grey-feather

CSO_Enki says:
CO: I see.  Are you aware of who the terrorists were?

CMO_Calahan says:
<MO_Doylan> ::smiles mischievously:: CEO: Exactly. Funny how we seem to think alike.

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
CSO: No. Nothing but speculation at present.

OPS_Clemons says:
::On the Starbase, sitting in a bar watching repair crews scurry about as they do their work::

CSO_Enki says:
::Nods slowly::

FCO_Voraye says:
::Once again summons RFCO Joystick and stands from the helm::

CMO_Calahan says:
::clears her throat softly:: CO: Thinking of it, I actually would like to pay a quick visit to the station Infirmary...

CEO_McGregor says:
Dyani: As soon as we get off ,where you want to meet up?

FCO_Voraye says:
<RFCO> ::Takes a seat at the helm::

CTO_Hexx says:
TO: Pleasure.  So, doin' inventory huh?  I hate that.

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::nods:: CMO: If they will let you on, feel free.

FCO_Voraye says:
::Clears throat:: CO: Ma'am?

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::hears the FCO:: FCO: Yes Mister Voraye?

TO_Grey-feather says:
CTO: Yes sir, have to turn in the resupply request to the captain. :: grins at the thought of the captain::

FCO_Voraye says:
CO: With your permission, I could go find Ensign Clemons.

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
FCO: Do you know Ensign Clemons?

FCO_Voraye says:
CO: No, but I could probably find him in a heartbeat. I'm good like that. Ya just look for an ensign who looks inspired and optimistic. That's a sign that they're fresh out of the academy. ::Winks::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::shrugs:: FCO: Sure. Nothing else for you to do since we are docked. ::grins::

CTO_Hexx says:
TO: Well, we haven't had much call for any armaments usage.  That's a good thing I suppose.  Yer list oughta be a short one.

FCO_Voraye says:
CO: Thank you. ::Heads to the turbolift, pages it and waits patiently::

CEO_McGregor says:
::Checks out his new pip::

TO_Grey-feather says:
CTO: So far it is.  Excuse me sir but is it true you come from a line of the original Texas Rangers?

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
CSO: So, as I was saying, Admiral Edwards was a fine man and we are each very interested in learning who is responsible for his... ::hesitates:: death.

CSO_Enki says:
CO: I understand, Captain.

CMO_Calahan says:
<MO_Doylan> ::shrugs:: CEO: Wherever you want to meet up...::smiles:: Dr. Calahan insisted that I take time off and spend it to my liking, so she refused to give me call....::winks::

CEO_McGregor says:
::Takes his supply requests to the OPS officer::

CMO_Calahan says:
::nods to Heather and turns to exit the bridge so she doesn't involve herself in conversations::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::nods:: CSO: Good. ::pauses:: Have you got your resupply requests in?

FCO_Voraye says:
<OPS Hardee> CEO: Thank you. Congratulations by the way.

CEO_McGregor says:
Dyani: My place or yours?

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::senses Keely and nods at her::

CSO_Enki says:
CO: I believe my SO took care of it.

CMO_Calahan says:
::glances at Dyani and gives a small smile, then pauses an moves her way:: MO: I'm going to the SB Infirmary....I should be back later, but the inactive sickbay is yours for now.

CEO_McGregor says:
OPS Hardee: Thank you lad

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
CSO: Excellent. Nice to have staff you can rely upon and trust. ::smiles::

FCO_Voraye says:
::Steps in the turbolift:: CPU: Starbase,  Main promenade level.

CSO_Enki says:
::Smiles::  CO: Well, when you're the new guy, it's difficult to know what we need.

CMO_Calahan says:
<MO_Doylan> ::nods to Keely with a smile and slight blush as she hears the CEO's words:: CMO: Uh... yeah, okay.

CEO_McGregor says:
OPS Hardee: Could you see that of anything you get the stabilizers,...very important

CMO_Calahan says:
::smiles to the CEO and then turns and leaves::

FCO_Voraye says:
<OPS> CEO: I'll see what I can do.

CEO_McGregor says:
::Returns the Doctors smile::

CTO_Hexx says:
::Arrives at the Armory::  TO: Yep, Hexxes have been rangers since they began.

TO_Grey-feather says:
:: walks into the armory and picks up his PADD to continue inventory :: CTO: A proud lineage your family has sir

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::nods at the CSO:: CSO: Understandable. ::pauses:: How are you finding your time here so far?

CSO_Enki says:
::Shrugs slightly, while coming up with a response::  CO: I've met a few people, especially my staff.  Nicer facilities here than on an Akira class.

FCO_Voraye says:
<CPU> FCO: Entering Starbase, please specify level.

FCO_Voraye says:
CPU: Level 8, observation lounge.

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
CSO: Yes. We are more geared towards science... but the Nebula is a multifunctional ship. ::is proud to say::

CMO_Calahan says:
<MO_Doylan> ::in an almost whisper:: CEO: I should go now...Comm me when you get off duty Mac. ::subtly gives his arm a squeeze as she brushes past and moves toward the TL::

CEO_McGregor says:
::Smiles very broadly:: CO: Captain I will be running a level 3 diagnostic on the warp core and power in-flux systems,

CSO_Enki says:
CO: Aren't all ships meant to be multipurpose?  Other than the Defiant class, and perhaps the... ::Thinks for a moment::  ... maybe the Sovereign.

CTO_Hexx says:
TO: Yep.  And, since we're on the subject: Your file says you're a gen-u-ine Seminole Indian.  Now, I haven't met anyone from yer tribe, so I reckon it'll be real educational for me to have you around.  ::Grins and looks over a rack of compression rifles.::

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::waves nonchalantly with her hand:: CSO: Well yes... but the module allows us to be specialized and yet flexible... with a little bit of planning. :smiles::

CMO_Calahan says:
<MO_Doylan> ::exits the bridge into the TL and smiles to herself:: TL: Sickbay.

CSO_Enki says:
::Thinks this Captain sure does smile a lot::  CO: That's true, yes.

FCO_Voraye says:
@::Exits turbolift onto Starbase level 8, observes the life aboard Starbase::

TO_Grey-feather says:
:: finishing the count on the hand phasers :: CTO: I don't know how educational it will be sir, my people have remained as they are since Osceola was our chief.  Nothing much changes in a tribe sir.

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
CSO: I heard about a ship in the Ninth Fleet, the Themisto... she's got the experimental hanger pod on her....

CTO_Hexx says:
TO: Well now see, that's what I'm talkin' about.  How long has that been?  Who was this Oscelot feller?  See, there's lots a things I could learn.  Don't reckon there's much I could tell you in return....

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::looks at McGregor:: CEO: Please do.

FCO_Voraye says:
@::Walks around looking for someone who doesn't appear jaded by the harsh realities of space-fairing life::

CSO_Enki says:
::Nods slowly::  CO: Which would seem to replicate the functions of an Akira, except not as maneuverable...

TO_Grey-feather says:
CTO: I don't know about that sir, most likely you will have a great deal to teach me.  And trust me being an Indian is not all it is romanticized about.  Try going through the academy being called names like "Runs with Phasers” or “Stands without Com Badge”

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
::nods:: CSO: Yes... I suppose... only with less fighters.

CTO_Hexx says:
::Laughs and slaps the TO on the shoulder::  TO: Yep, I reckon that might be embarrassing.  So, just what is your actual name...in your language I mean.

CSO_Enki says:
CO: I guess I just can't see the reasoning, ma'am.  Nebulas were designed with science in mind, to replace the Oberths.  But there's the tactical pod, the hanger pod...

CSO_Enki says:
CO: If there's time to outfit a Nebula with a tactical pod, there's time to gather a small task force in order than the Nebula's not needed.

Host CO_Llewellyn says:
CSO: Well I know the Europa was outfitted with the weapons pod briefly when she was expected to encounter some potential pirates near the black cluster. ::hears what Enki said and pauses to think before responding:: Actually I think it takes less time to outfit the pod than to gather a task force ....and less ships... ::smiles satisfied with herself, goes back to the big chair::

FCO_Voraye says:
@::Walks up to the bar:: Bartender: Vampire's Vengeance please. Have you seen an Ensign? Operations department? His profile said he was about yay tall ::Motions::. Anything?

FCO_Voraye says:
<Bartender> FCO: Blondish-brown hair? Human. He was here a while ago. Left. He went that way. ::Motions in a direction as he hands drink::

CEO_McGregor says:
::Listens to the conversations about the different pods::

FCO_Voraye says:
@::Takes drink:: Bartender: Thanks. ::Sips drink and walks in motioned direction::

FCO_Voraye says:
@Self: Hope he hasn't wandered off. We don't need our new OPS officer getting in trouble on the first day....
