CSO_Singh says:
@*OPS*: Kehari, I almost have everything tied up here.  Where have you managed to loose yourself
OPS-Qui says:
*CSO*: I'm on the station ... promenade level, window shopping.  You want to get together for some lunch?
CSO_Singh says:
@*OPS*:  Sounds good to me.  I also need to find an art supply store.  If you see one, let me know.  I am not familiar with this station.
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
@::after sending off the communiqué, Ewan, still in uniform, decides to head over to the station::
OPS-Qui says:

@*CIV*: I should be there shortly... on the lift down.  We are to meet Kehari at the Stargazer lounge... wherever that may be.
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
@*CSO*: Ok I'll wait here
CSO_Singh says:
@*OPS*:  I hope you don't mind, but Captain MacPherson is coming with me.
OPS-Qui says:
*CSO*: Not at all!  The more the merrier!
OPS-Qui says:
:: Thinks to self ::   Self: As long as Commander Jarek don't come too, it should be fine!
CSO_Singh says:
@:: Steps from the lift and heads for the exit where she sees MacPherson.::  CIV:  Hello sir... I don't suppose you know where we are going?
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
@CSO: Ahh Commander, not a clue.. you?

OPS-Qui says:
:: Thinks to self ::   Self: That should be fun!    :: Smiles ::
CSO_Singh says:
:: Pulls up the promenade screen::  Stargazer... stargazer...  CIV: There it is.

ACTION: The station directory gives the two officers the information:  Stargazer Lounge, main promenade

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CSO: Lead the way Commander
CSO_Singh says:
CIV:  I thought that was a captain’s job.  ::With a light smile, quickly follows the directions, not wanting to leave Kehari alone too long.::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Sees the waiter come over and gives him a smile as he sets two menus down on the table ::    Waiter:  Oh...there will be three of us
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CSO: As they say, ladies before gentlemen
Host Waiter says:
OPS: I'll bring one more than, and an extra table setting...    :: Rushes off ::
CSO_Singh says:
CIV:  Do they still say that?
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CSO: At least I do
CSO_Singh says:
CIV:  You would like my family.  They are very much traditionalists.  But then... you probably already know that.  :: With a smile nods toward their destination.::  CIV:  There we go.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Sees the waiter come back with another menu and place setting.  Watches him set it down and gives him a small smile ::

CSO: That's me in a nutshell, traditional ::laughs::

Host OPS-Qui says:
CSO: It smells like they do.   CIV: Capt....   :: Nods ::  I'm glad you could join us
CSO_Singh says:
:: Slips onto a chair.::  OPS:  Ship is closed down for the next few days for repairs.  And if we are lucky, only Captain Savar will have to deal with the Admiral and debriefing.
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
OPS: The pleasure is all mine, besides I'm sure that the Luna can do without me for awhile.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Retakes her seat and nods at the CSO ::   CSO / CIV: I got a message from Oberon OPS...there's a banquet being held later for the two crews.  We're all invited...
CSO_Singh says:
OPS:  Much later I hope.  I intend to enjoy my meal with dessert for a change.  No rushing... no worries...  everyone where they are supposed to be... finally.  ::Sighs::
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::wipes the seat off then sits::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Grins at Harmony. ::

ACTION: The waiter comes to the table....

Host Waiter says:
All: You ready to order?

Waiter:  Do you have anything Japanese, from Earth?
Host Waiter says:
CSO: Yes we do... anything your heart desires, our Japanese chef can make for you!
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::looks at the waiter:: Waiter: I'll have a scotch from Scotland, Earth please
Host Waiter says:
:: Nods at the Capt. ::   CIV: Yes sir...something to eat?
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
Waiter: A nice fat Reuben sandwich would be nice with fries
Host Waiter says:
:: Smiles ::  CIV: Excellent choice, sir.   CSO: Ma'am?
CSO_Singh says:
Waiter:  I would like some clear soup, gyoza, some avocado sashimi, and chirashi.

All: Anything else then?
CSO_Singh says:
Waiter:  Hot tea please.
Host Waiter says:
CSO: Green, oolong, ginger spice, Earl Gray, English Breakfast...
CSO_Singh says:
Waiter:  Ginger spice.
Host Waiter says:
:: Looks around ::  All: Very good.  I'll return shortly with your drinks....   :: Turns and leaves the table.... ::
CSO_Singh says:
OPS:  And if I can walk away from the table after eating all of that...  :: smiles.::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Watches the waiter leave then turns her attention back to her friends ::
OPS-Qui says:
CSO: Harmony, I never got the chance to thank you for saving my life....   CIV: And it's rumored you had a very interesting time on that tetrahedron....
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CSO/OPS: Define interesting? ::chuckles::
CSO_Singh says:
OPS:  Actually you have, in many ways... but I really did not do much but get there and hold your hand.
OPS-Qui says:
CIV: It's rumor, and I don't wish to spread it...so why not tell us your side of the story....
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
OPS: I'm not the one for rumors, what can I say, I was abducted and experimented on
OPS-Qui says:
:: Furrows her brow ::   CIV: I hope it wasn't too painful and that your memories of it will soon fade
CSO_Singh says:
CIV: Do you or the other members of our crew remember anything?  I have not received the doctor’s report yet.
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
OPS: They took what would assume is DNA from me for one of those freak babies
OPS-Qui says:
:: Eyes begin to water as she tries not to recall her captivity and the experiments done on her ::
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CSO: I hadn't seen the doctor yet because I was working on that derelict ship
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CSO: And on that secret mission with Cmdr. Jarot
CSO_Singh says:
:: Reaches over and lightly touches Kehari's arm.::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Gives Harmony a forced smile and blinks back the tears ::
CSO_Singh says:
:: Looks sad::  CIV/OPS:  I am so going to miss Alec.  It will not be the same with him gone.
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
OPS/CSO: But it did make for an interesting report to my superiors at SFI
Host Waiter says:
:: Returns with a tray ::    CSO: Hot spice tea...   CIV: Scotch from Earth's Scotland....  OPS: Refresher for your mint tea.    :: Steps back ::   Your food will be out shortly.....
CSO_Singh says:
:: Frowns::  CIV/OPS:  I am for some more happier thoughts...  anyone here know when we might be going back to Earth in the correct time?  I would love to visit my family... and take a few folks with me.
CSO_Singh says:
:: Thanks the waiter.::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Nods as she hears Harmony's words. ::   CSO / CIV:  It will be very different around the bridge, I'm sure....
OPS-Qui says:
:: Shakes head. ::   CSO: I haven't heard anything
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
OPS/CSO: Not sure, but I can't wait to see my wife and daughter again
CSO_Singh says:
:: Sad again as she thinks of the children left behind.::  CIV:  I am not sure how you can do it.
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::looks at Singh:: CSO: Do what Commander?
CSO_Singh says:
CIV:  Be away from your daughter... or your wife either.
OPS-Qui says:
CIV: She must be a very special woman and a very special daughter
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CSO: Ahhh, well, I don't want to be away from them, but Jerni understands, but my daughter is too young to know. Thank you, Jerni is a special lady, she was my childhood sweetheart and my daughter is adopted, but I love her
CSO_Singh says:
CIV:  Would they not join you on the Luna?
CSO_Singh says:
:: Slowly finishes off her spicy tea.::
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CSO: I'm sure they would, but I rarely stay in one place. I stay only as long or short as SFI sees fit. Jerni is a former Starfleet officer and I don't know if she really wants to be back on a star ship

ACTION: The waiter returns with the orders and carefully sets them before the group...

CSO_Singh says:
:: Thanks the waiter and as soon as he leaves, reaches for the chopsticks.::  Mmmm... smells good.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Munches happily on her veggies ::
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
OPS/CSO: Anybody special in your lives? ::pretending that he doesn't know::
CSO_Singh says:
:: Thinks of her situation with Brian and shakes her head... at least they did not have children.::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Looks at the CIV with incredulous eyes ::   CIV: Why do you ask?
OPS-Qui says:
:: Remembers that it seem EVERYONE knows about the Commander's pursuit of her... ::
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
OPS: I like to be on even fields, I like to know about my fellow crewmen as they do with me
CSO_Singh says:
:: Smiles at Kehari::

ACTION: The crew enjoy their time at Oberon Station as Captain Savar deals with Admiral Royce and her questions.  After a few days, they leave Oberon to head towards Starbase 917....
