Mission Summary
	The senior staff of the USS Huron meet in the resort lobby to share in a meal in what is supposed one of the best restaurants on Betazed... once they are seated, however, they find that the service is, shall we say, less than stellar...

Host CO_Woo says:
::sighing, as he reads the newspaper in the resort lobby::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::walking back to the hotel with her new friend, Sydney::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Heading back to the hotel with Randi.::  CNS:  So, Randi.  Where are we meeting for dinner?  Have you heard yet?

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::In resort lobby, milling about and thinking.::  CO: Sir?  Where were you looking to gather for the dinner?

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
::in her resort room putting on the new clothes she bought after she realized she had nothing to wear to a dinner gathering::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  Not yet, but I am sure we have explicit instructions and directions once we get there.  How did you like Tio?  Isn't he great!

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
@::turns over the bridge, and heads to the turbolift::

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
:: comes down to the lobby, still not sure she wants to mingle with the rest of the crew just now ::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
@TL: Transporter Room 1.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CNS:  Absolutely the best.  What was great is he didn't mind hanging out with an Ensign.  T'Lin sure is lucky to have such a wonderful Captain.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  You can say that again!  I would love to serve on Tio's ship, but I have so many friends here, I am torn, if you know what I mean.

Host CO_Woo says:
CTO: Oh, the, uh, restaurant in the resort here, I suppose. Did you have something else in mind?

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: No Sir, don't know the area well enough to have any idea, to be honest.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CNS:  I can only imagine.  You know, I swore I would never serve on a starship.  The Academy convinced me to take this job, and now I'm glad I did.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  What is your room number?  We may be close to each other.

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
::Finishes dressing, meets her team near the elevators, and the team takes a car down together::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CNS: I think I was 12A.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  Space assignments are the best Syd.  Why didn't you want a starship?

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
@::arrives in the TR:: TR Chief: Energize.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  All right, I am 16A.  You must be down the hallway from me!

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: In the arboretum curled up under a desdra tree, staring out at the large window.::

Host SM_Jim says:
@ACTION:  The XO is transported down to the planet.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CNS:  I am not sure.  I just felt like it wasn't for me.  Too far from home, family.  You know, just didn't seem like it was something I wanted to do at the time.  That's great!  You're right down the hall from me.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::arrives on the surface, and heads to the gathering location::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CEO: Hey, how are you doing?

CNS-McIntyre says:
::giggles as they said the same thing::  CMO:  Well, I have traveled around this galaxy all my life.  I don't know if I could stay on any one planet for long.

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
:: sees some of the crew gathering and walks over :: CO: Captain, enjoying your time off?

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  There is the hotel, I wonder if the dinner is formal.  That would be just my luck after the great time we have had today.

Host CO_Woo says:
::looks up, he's feeling a little dazed for some reason; he stands:: CEO: I suppose so... and yourself?

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
::Walks off the elevator into the lobby looking like a fashion plate, wearing a satin strapless cocktail dress, shiny silk hose, and nice heels. The rest of the team also nicely cleaned-up and dressed in semi-formal attire and looking spiffy::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CNS: I guess space to me always seemed cold, distant.  Shall we stop by our rooms and change?

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::arrives in the lobby, and looks around::

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
CO: Could be better sir, but I'll.... You alright Captain? You look a little lost?

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: Taking a deep breath, she finally opens the communique she had found waiting for her upon her 'return' to her universe.::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  Unless the Captain wants us sweaty and grimy. I think we should!

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: She's right Sir, you want me to get a medic?

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::laughing.::  CNS: I'll be quick.  I'll meet you in, let's say 10 minutes?

Host CO_Woo says:
CEO: Um... no, I'm fine. All: Well, we might as well head for the restaurant, I'm sure people will be able to find us.

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: Slowly she scanned through the communique, then went back to read it slowly.::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  Right, this elevator here goes to our floor.  ::pushes the button for 16::

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
:: nods :: CO: Of course sir. :: motions to Icky to stay close ::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Looks at the CIV.::  CO: Um, are we a bit under dressed?

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Heads in the elevator with Randi as the doors open.::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
::Leads the team across the lobby, heading for the restaurant, as it was stated as the rendezvous point::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::walks up to Gina and the members of her team:: CIV: How are you today, Ensign? ::follows her towards the restaurant, obviously not quite himself either::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Nods to CEO and walks close to Captain, just in case.::

Host CO_Woo says:
::sighs:: CTO: No- no, I'm fine, seriously. Now, let's go. ::raises a hand towards the restaurant, gesturing for everyone to proceed::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
CTO: Not that I know about Lt, but the Captain did say it was a dinner meeting.

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
XO: I'm well Sir, but you don't look so good. Is something wrong?

CNS-McIntyre says:
::exits the elevator::  CMO:  See ya in a few!  ::waves to her::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Takes the elevator to the 16th floor and heads to her room.::  CNS:  See ya soon.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CIV: Aye, just didn't see the word formal in the invitation.  Oh well, if I'm wrong it won't be the first time.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
CIV: Yes, Ensign.. but.. ::sighs::... I'll be okay. I hope.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::walks into the restaurant, looking around::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::opens her door and begins stripping on the way to the bathroom::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
CTO: It didn't state a dress code Lt, I'm sure you'll be fine.

Host CO_Woo says:
CTO: Don't worry about it... just going to have a nice shared meal, formal is not necessary. ::smiles as he leads them to a large table in the centre of the restaurant...::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
XO: Sir, is it about your family? Anything I can do to help?

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Swipes the pass she has, and rummages through her closet for a nice pair of slacks and a purple sweater.  Throws the clothing on the bathroom counter and hops in the sonic shower for a quickie.::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::hears the Captain and goes to the table, taking a seat sullenly::

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: Putting down the communique, she reached for the ceramic box, and carefully touched it in a pattern  she remembered from a mosaic in her palace room.::

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
:: follows along and looks for a chair at the table ::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::steps into a real shower, feeling decadent with all the water she is using::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::Addresses Gina again:: CIV: No, there's nothing you can do... nothing anyone here can do right now..

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
::Takes a seat... team sits nearby at another table, leaving the officers to group among themselves::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::washes her hair and body, sighing as she doesn't want to get out, but doesn't want to keep Syd waiting::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::sighs, but looks out among his friends, and is brightened some::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Enters the restaurant behind the Captain, waiting to make sure he's OK at his seat before sitting next to CEO.::

CSO_Sky says:
@::With extreme care, she removes the letter there and carefully opens it up to read it. ::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
XO: Sorry to hear that Sir, but I'm always available if you need a friendly ear.

Host CO_Woo says:
::notices the XO suddenly, and smiles at him:: XO: Glad you could come, Tom. ::sits down, and sighs, looking rather pleased::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Exits the shower and quickly dresses.  Grabs a heart diamond necklace which she fastens around her neck, brushing her hair and quickly looking in the mirror.::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::attempts a smile:: CIV: Thanks, Gina. That means a lot.  Perhaps later.. we could talk.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
CO: Captain.. pleased to be here.

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
XO: Anytime Sir, after all, we are both Apache alumnus... ::winks::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::steps out of the shower, using a nice fluffy towel to dry her hair, then her body::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Satisfied with her appearance, she exits her room and waits patiently in the hallway for Randi.::

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: As she comes to the end, she close her eye, bowing them, her tears finally released.::

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
:: leans over and whispers to Icky :: CTO: He doesn't look well at all. Maybe we should have the doctor check him out.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::smiles a little, and winks back::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::after drying herself, she walks to the closet and pulls a slinky silk dress out that hugs her in all the right places::

Host CO_Woo says:
::looks around for a waiter... frowns, the place looks surprisingly devoid:: CTO: I wonder where everyone is.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::one last look in the mirror and she goes to the door of her suite, exits and looks out into the hallway, seeing the CMO waiting for her::  CMO:  Hey, you beat me!

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CEO: Wouldn't hurt, even if he does say he's all right, he wouldn't be the first Officer to exaggerate their hea...  ::Turns quick back to the CO.::  CO: Uh, I don't know Sir.

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
::Looks over to her Team Chief, makes several hand gestures, he nods, and the team orders food and drinks and seems to relax::

CSO_Sky says:
:: After a moment, she carefully folds the letter, and returns it to its box, sealing the lid once more. ::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Chuckles.::  CNS: I took the easy sonic shower.  ::Looks as Randi's hair is still damp.::  Shall we head to the restaurant.  They're probably wondering where we are.  But we look great.  It was worth the extra few minutes we took.  ::winks at Randi.::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::looks around the table, waiting for the waiter to come to their table::

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: She leans back against the tree, weighing carefully the offer. ::

Host CO_Woo says:
All: So how has everyone's time been?

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  As if the CO and XO would notice, but I do like to dress up!  ::grinning at her::  Let's go partner! ::grabbing her arm they walk to the elevator::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
All: We could simply start banging our utensils on the table to get the service staff's attention.  ::Grins.::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
XO: Relax Sir, I'll go have a few words with the maitre d' and see if I can't get us some service.

CSO_Sky says:
@ ::Reaching up, she taps her comm badge. ::  *CO*  Captain, have you a moment?

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Grabs the CNS arm, as she leads the way.::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
::gets up and goes in search of the Head Penguin of the place::

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
:: leans back and looks down at her hand where she's been holding a small holo disc of her beloved Cologne ::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::stiffly:: CIV: I.. am.. relaxed...

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::sighs rather loudly::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::exiting the elevator, they walk over to the front desk::  Clerk:  Where is the dinner being held for the crew of the Huron?

Host CO_Woo says:
*CSO*: Ah, yes, lieutenant?

CSO_Sky says:
@ *CO*:  This is a bit of an odd request, given I have been 'gone' for a bit, but I am requesting permission for a leave of absence.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Gets a concerned look as they appear to be lost.::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CEO: Are you going to be OK?

Host CO_Woo says:
*CSO*: A leave of absence? For what reason?

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CNS: I hope they save some food.  I'm really hungry.

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
::Sees the CMO and CNS as she searched for the Head Hash Slinger:: CSO/CMO: We're in there Doctor, Counselor.

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
:: looks up and smiles and shows Icky the disc :: CTO: Sorry Icky, I'm fine, just a bit sad.

Host SM_Jim says:
<Clerk> CNS:  That dinner is being held right past the hotel lobby to your left.  ::smiles::

CSO_Sky says:
@ *CO*:  I have officially been invited to Keonna.  It is a world that is in alliance to the federation, but not part of it.

CNS-McIntyre says:
Clerk:  Thank you!

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CNS: I think I see a friendly face.  ::Waves to Ens. Hembrook.::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  Shall we?

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
Clerk: Where is the waitstaff? We have a lot of hungry people in there waiting.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CNS: I'm with you.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CEO: No need to apologize.  Just let me know if you need anything, anything at all.

Host CO_Woo says:
::stands up:: All: Excuse me. ::he walks over to a corner:: *CSO*: Well, you are certainly eligible, but for how long?

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
CTO: I know I can count on you after all we've been through together. Thanks.

CSO_Sky says:
@ ::Looks down at the box in her hand, then lightly smiles.::  *CO*:  How long will you let me get away?  It is easily a week trip there and another back.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::walks into the dining area and sees the crew::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Enters the restaurant and notes 2 vacant seats at the crew's table.  One seat is next to the CTO, the other next to the XO.::  CNS:  Hmm?  I'll take the seat next to the XO.  At least I get to sit across from you.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Walks up to the empty chair next to the XO.::  XO:  This seat taken?

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  No way... I am NOT sitting next to the CTO.  I would rather not be court martialed while on shore leave.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Doesn't hear the CNS statement as she has already started heading off to meet another crew member.::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::tries to smile at the CMO:: CMO: Not at all, Doctor.. please, take a seat.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::sees the CEO:  CEO:  Holly, it has been a while.  ::senses a sadness in her::  What has happened Holly?

Host CO_Woo says:
*CSO*: Well, be sure to complete the paperwork and submit it to me; and I look forward to your return, lieutenant.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Holds her hand out to the XO.::  XO: Sydney Logan, Sir.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Takes a seat next to the XO.::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Smiles back.::  CEO: It's been a long two years, I'm just sorry I wasted so much of it.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::shakes the CMO's hand:: XO: Tom Marsland.. Pleased to meet you.

CSO_Sky says:
@ *CO*:  Thank you sir.  I should have it all completed within the hour.  With your permission, I will be gone shortly afterwards, the sooner to return of course.

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
CNS: Oh hi Randi. Sorry, I was just thinking about Cologne. I lost her earlier today.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CEO:  OH no Holly!  I would be desolate without Baby.  Is there anything I can do to help?

Host CO_Woo says:
*CSO*: Aye. Good luck, Sierra.

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
CNS: Nothing anyone can do Randi. I guess it was just her time, but thanks.

CSO_Sky says:
@ *CO*:  Thank you sir.... and Sir... if you would please.  AFTER the hour is up, then let the others know.  Especially Randi.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
XO: It looks like everyone is here now.  Do we have a waiter?  I am starved!

Host CO_Woo says:
*CSO*: As you like.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CEO:  Well I haven't had the chance to meet the new XO, what is he like?

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Motions for the CNS to sit across from her, and hides a grin that she has to sit next to the CTO.::

CSO_Sky says:
@*CO*:  It is safer this way... trust me.  Enjoy your leave.  Sky out.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::looks around still sullenly:: CMO: I think everyone is here.. Ensign Hembrook went to find a waiter, and the Captain is in the middle of a conversation right now.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::had she not been so concerned about Holly, she might have picked up on the CSO::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
::Wanders back in after looking around in vain for some service in this supposedly ultra-posh service resort. Returning to see her chair taken, she shrugs and goes to sit with her team:: Self: No good deed ever goes unpunished, typical.

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
:: looks over at the XO :: CNS: I haven't really had a chance to say more than a welcome aboard so far really.

Host CO_Woo says:
::returns to the table:: All: My apologies.... now, have the waiters showed up yet? ::sighs to himself, as his opinion of the resort keeps getting lower and lower...::

CSO_Sky says:
@::Standing, she makes her way to the science lab to set things in order there for a long stay away.::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::seeing another empty chair, she heads for it::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CEO:  Well I am sure we will meet eventually.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CEO: Lieutenant, it's nice to meet you.  I'm Sydney Logan.  Gives her a nod.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::leans over to the Captain:: CO: Everything alright?

Host CO_Woo says:
XO: Just annoyed that the waiters are nowhere to be seen. ::winks::

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
:: smiles :: CMO: Holly Sparks. :: extends her hand :: Nice to meet you at last.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
XO: So you are new to the ship as well, Sir?

Host SM_Jim says:
<Waiter> ::arrives at the table::  All:  Management sends its apologies.  It seems we are short on staff today.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
CMO: Yes, I am.. Reported aboard about 5 days ago... the same day you did, actually.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Captain, you seem a bit distracted tonight.

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: Locating her second, whom Starfleet had sent not long ago to possibly replace her, she fills her in.::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::notices the chair is on the other side of the XO::  XO:  Sir, I am Cmdr. McIntyre, I don't believe we have met yet.

Host CO_Woo says:
Waiter: Management sends its apologies with mere words? I say management should apologize with a bottle of wine or something or other.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Shakes the CEO's hand.::  CEO: Same here.  And thanks.

Host CO_Woo says:
CNS: Do not worry about me, counselor. And how have you been?

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: With that started, she heads for her quarters.::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CIV: Local facilities meet with your teams approval I hope?

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::still upset, he tries to smile, and offers a hand:: CNS: Pleased to meet you, Commander, I am Tom Marsland.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO: I have been on an outing with Tio... you remember him?  I took the CMO with me and we have had a wonderful morning on a jungle hunt.

Host SM_Jim says:
<Waiter> CO:  Fine sir, I'll add that to your bill.  ::goes to get the bottle of wine::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
CTO: Well, my Chief would rather be Targ-hunting with his K'Tang, but they seem to be in short supply here. ::shares a grin and laugh with her MCPO::

Host CO_Woo says:
Waiter: Hold it- Hold it!

CNS-McIntyre says:
::takes the XO's hand:  XO:  Nice to meet you as well.  I am really not as bad as you think I am Sir... once you get to know me, I kinda grow on you!

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
:: turns her head to the Captain as he shouts ::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Laughs.::  CIV: No, I don't think there's a whole lot of hunting game about on Betazed.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Politely excuses herself, and gets up and sits down next to the CTO, feeling bad that Randi did not want to sit next to him, and having absolutely no clue why she does either, but figures she'll give him a chance.::

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: Arriving, she takes a seat and begins to fill out the paperwork.::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::shakes his head:: CNS: You know my thoughts,now? ::smiles::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Holds out her hand to the CTO, expecting him to feel cold cause he's blue.::  CTO: Lieutenant?  Sydney Logan, nice to meet you.

Host SM_Jim says:
<Waiter>::returns with a couple bottles of wine and pours them into the glasses::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
CTO: Pity, we could use a little fun around here... but I guess the Breen are in short supply here too, since Operation Whirlwind. ::chuckles::

CNS-McIntyre says:
XO:  No Sir, I don't read minds on purpose... but I am sure there has been the inevitable scuttlebutt!  ::grinning at him::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CMO: Ah, the new Doc, right?  Good to meet you, always want to make a good impression with the Docs.  My line of work...and play, tends to require your services a lot.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::smiles:: CNS: I suppose there has been.. some. But, I do not think anyone is bad..

Host CO_Woo says:
::frowns:: Waiter: At the very least, please provide... oh, I don't know, menus?

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Gives him a smile, and shakes his hand.::  CTO:  My doors are always open.  Wait?  Your line of work?  Play?

CNS-McIntyre says:
XO:  I like everyone, and I would say, generally everyone likes me, with a few exceptions ::looking pointedly at the CTO:: but those I just consider the source and move on.  So where did you come from Sir?

Host SM_Jim says:
<Waiter> CO:  Um sir, they are right there on the table next to your plate.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CIV: Scuttlebutt has it there's supposed to be some kind mass melee tournament on one of the passing Tellarite freighters.  Not sure if that's the kind of "action" your looking for, but if you're interested, call Ensign Bee on the ship.

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: That completed, she sits back to stare at the computer a moment, then before she could change her mind, she made a call to the Admiral.::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
CNS: I was previously stationed as Chief Science Officer on the USS Apache.

Host CO_Woo says:
::sighs:: Waiter: Yes. Of course. Thank you. ::flips open a menu::

CNS-McIntyre says:
XO:  Isn't that another NO class Sir?

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CMO: I tend to spend a good deal of time working on hand to hand combat, whether the true martial arts or the competition styles.  Also tend to drag other security folks into it, as the Holodecks just miss an edge at times.

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
CTO: No thanks Lt, it wouldn't be fair to them, besides, we are looking to keep a low profile while here.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
CNS: Yes, it is.

Host SM_Jim says:
<Waiter> CO:  Unfortunately, management can not comp the liquor, but they have told me to comp all your food.

CNS-McIntyre says:
XO:  Well, we have a good crew Sir, and I hope you enjoy your time on the Huron.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CIV: Hey, they made it open rules.  ::Grins.::  I can understand the low profile, though.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CTO: Well I would love it if you could show me some self-defense moves when you have time.  I could use a refresher on those.

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: As he comes online, briefly she sees another face overlaying his.  But his eyes and voice pull her back and she smiles.::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::gets the CO's attention for a moment, and whispers:: CO: In case you wonder what's up with me, Sir.. take a look at this letter I received. ::hands him a PADD, and goes back to his conversation:: CNS: Of course, I expect nothing but the best, Commander... demand it, actually.

Host CO_Woo says:
::raises an eyebrow:: Waiter: Well. I suppose that will do. ::smirks, and looks over at the XO, taking the padd:: XO: Ah, thank you, lieutenant... ::glances over it::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CMO: Sure thing.  I could teach you Aikido, if you're interested.  Terran martial art with absolutely no offensive moves.  Not sure what your take on combat is, but it's a good one.

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: Quietly she informs him of the situation.::  *Admiral*:  It will be alright...

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::frowns slightly to himself::

CNS-McIntyre says:
XO:  I guess that goes to interpretation doesn't it Sir?  Demand is a pretty strong word, when you don't know your crew.

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CTO: We'll have to get together on one of the holodecks or something later.  I would very much like that.

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
CNS: Don't worry Counselor, he's fair about it, just expects the best you can do. I've seen him with his people before. ;-)

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
:: listens to the conversation around half-heartedly not really wanting to participate much ::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
CNS: I would say, that of course you have to know what your crew can do before you start making unachievable demands, of course Commander.. but I would also say the standard has to be set somewhere.. and from what I see so far.. this crew far exceeds the normal standards.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CMO: There's also girthgollo, an Andorian competitive style with no defensive moves, but that's both tough to learn and hard on the body.  ::Smiles and laughs.::

CNS-McIntyre says:
XO:  I don't think you will find the Huron crew lacking ::smiling at him::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::nods:: CNS: I don't believe I will either. ::returns the smile::

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: Downloads him the request from the embassy.  Watches him read it, before he looks up at her with a sigh.::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
::Whispers.::  CTO: I think we'll start with more of the basic one's, if you don't mind.  ::winks.::

Host CO_Woo says:
::looks up from the padd:: XO: Thank you, lieutenant. I hope everything turns out fine.

CNS-McIntyre says:
XO:  Sir, if you will excuse me for a moment, I haven't met the new civilian specialist yet.

CSO_Sky says:
@ ::Within moments, he contacts counsel and the arrangements are made, including private transport to get her there and back again sooner... or as the Admiral hinted, to make sure she got period.::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CMO: To be honest, with matching skill levels, an Aikido master would wipe the floor with a girthgollo master, no question.  It's only real purpose, for me, is to build endurance.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::smiles a little:: CO: Thank you Sir... I hope so too.  I guess it's to be expected in this line of work, that we may lose a loved one... I just didn't expect it to possibly occur this soon.

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::nods to the CNS::

CSO_Sky says:
@ ::With a twinkle in her eyes, she thanks him, promising to bring him something back.::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CTO: Well I promise I won't hurt you if you don't hurt me.  ::grins.::

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: As the line goes blank, she sits back with a sigh, shaking her head.::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CMO: I promise I won't hurt you.  As for me, if you hurt me while I'm teaching, that's my fault.

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: With a glance at the chronometer, she stands and quickly begins to pack.::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::looks at the menu, and decides what to order::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
::team orders chow and drinks::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::stands up and walks over to the CIV::  CIV:  I don't believe we have met yet, I am Randi McIntyre. ::extending her hand::

CSO_Sky says:
@ ::One who has never called anyone place home for long, her task is relatively easy... sadly, to easy.::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
CNS: Gina Hembrook, Counselor. Just to clear the record up, I'm a Mission Specialist, not a Civilian. ::shakes briefly::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CTO: Actually, being a doctor, I am more into the defensive moves, if you will, rather than actual offensive/combat moves.  I'm not an aggressor.  I'm a doctor.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CIV:  Yes, I understand that... I was admiring your dress.  Where did you get it?  ::wonders why she is so touchy::

Host CO_Woo says:
::nods:: XO: Well let's hope for the best. In any case... ::glances at the menu:: ... Waiter: Waiter, I'll have the oskoid salad please. And make sure it's fresh.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CMO: That would be the most useful, trust me.

Host SM_Jim says:
<Waiter> CO:  Of course sir, everything we have here is fresh.

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
CNS: I got it in the local shop here in the resort... a bit overpriced, but worth it. Oh, this is my Team Chief, MCPO Kruge, and these are the rest of my Merry Band of Marauding Leprechauns. ::grins::

Host XO_Lt_Marsland says:
::looks up at the waiter:: Waiter: I'll have the same.

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: Closing her bag, she glances around.  Before heading out the door, she stops and looks at the computer.  Then with a sigh, she puts her bag down and goes to write Randi and Roz a brief note.::

CMO_Ens_Sydney_Logan says:
CTO: Although, I must say, I would love to learn to fence.  That always looked like an appealing sport.

Host SM_Jim says:
<Waiter> ::nods to the XO::

CNS-McIntyre says:
Team:  Nice to meet all of you.  It has been a while since I have had any training, any chance you would take on a beginner?  ::the devil shining in her eyes::

CSO_Sky says:
@ :: That completed, she makes her way out the door and to the transporter room.  Looked like she was going to Betazoid after all. ::

CEO_Lt_Sparks says:
:: leans over to Icky and whispers :: CTO: Having fun with the new doctor? :: smiles ::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
CNS: Well Counselor, we might let you in on some of our training on the phaser range or the holodecks back on the ship, but I'm afraid operational training would be far too dangerous, since you aren't used to us, and we aren't used to you.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CEO: Not bad, just getting to know her.  ::Smiles back.::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::a sly smile appears on her face::  CIV:  Don't let looks deceive you Gina... there is more here that what appears on the surface.  Just let me know when you are doing some training.  You can judge for yourself then.

CSO_Sky says:
:: Beaming to the surface, she makes her way to the embassy and her contact.  Normally it could take months what she was planning.  But it had already been prepared over 4000 years ago.  She also sent a silent thank you to Ethan.::

CIV_ENS_Hembrook says:
CNS: Nothing personal Counselor... I wasn't judging you specifically, I would have said the same to anyone. Feel free to drop by any time.
