:: Sitting in her chair on the bridge, reviewing leave requests and supply lists.::
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
:: Taking refuge in his Ready Room, trusting his officers to oversee the transfer ::
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
::walks around the SB aimlessly, Teebo by her side::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::sits on Promenade sipping prune juice watching the ebb and flow::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan sits in a chair sipping tea in his quarters::

ACTION: The FCO appears to have collected a large following of children of "that age" they appear to be attempting to pull the wolfs tail and then run away again before they are eaten

XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
:: Signing off the last request, hands it to a waiting yeoman and stands, heading towards the captains ready room.  Activates the chime.::
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
:: Looks up :: XO: Enter.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
:: Enters as the doors open and makes her way over to his desk.::  CO: Everything is in order at the moment.  The rotation set for an unknown amount of time and all supply requests in and approved... or adjusted for.
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
::aware of the kids but decides to let Teebo deal with it himself::
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
XO: Excellent.  Did you take time off for yourself?
Host Child1 says:
::manages to get a good grip of the tail and pulls hard, dislodging a nice clump of fur::
Teebo says:
::jumps around, making for the kid, growling::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
::Smiles::  CO: Yes... right after you do.
Host Lenore says:
::stands in front of the ECTO and speaks in a voice that simply oozes with hidden messages:: ECTO: Is this seat taken?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::continues to sip the freshly brewed tea::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::Stands:: Lenore: No
Host Child1 says:
::sees the wolf turn and runs off screaming, but still managing to look triumphant::
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
XO: I do not require leave.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
CO: Yes you do.  Along with your wife.
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
Lenore: What would you like to drink?
Teebo says:
::trots back to Shania's side, looking triumphant himself::
Host Lenore says:
::for a moment looks upset, but perks up immediately:: ECTO: Can you pick out something for me?  I can never make up my mind.
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::blushes and orders a white wine::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan finishes the first cup, he leans forward and sets down the cup on the saucer, grabs the teapot and pours himself another cup. Sets down the pot , picks up the cup from the saucer and leans back into his chair sipping and reflecting back on his career::
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
::sees a coffee shop and practically runs towards it::

ACTION: The doorbell of the CIV's quarters goes off

FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
::enters and finds herself a quiet table::
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
:: Ponders ::  XO: Perhaps she would benefit from a period of time away from the vessel, given recent events.  Were you two treated well while in capture?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Wonders who that could be, he left specific orders not to be disturbed:: Enter
Host Waitress says:
::arrives at the FCO's location and takes out a PADD from her apron:: FCO: What can I get'cha?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
:: Looks everywhere but into his dark eyes::  CO: I am fine and your wife was not there long.
Host Lenore says:
::takes the wine from the ECTO and sips it:: ECTO: I don't think you have introduced yourself?
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
Waitress: A nice big cup of coffee would be nice, and some water for my pet.
Host Adm_Weatherby says:
::enters the CIV's quarters and closes the door behind him:: CIV: Captain, I'm sorry for the intrusion, do you have a minute?
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
Lenore:I am LtJG Wolf, son of Gra`Vir
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan stands:: ADM: Always, tea? ::motions at the pt and extra cup on a saucer::
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
::gets out her book and tries to remember where she stopped, it's been a while::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::nervously rubs scar running down his face::
Host Waitress says:
::notices the "pet" for the first time:: FCO: Commin' right up love! ::turns and scurries off, presumably to get the coffee::
Host Lenore says:
::simply beams, but doesn't appear to be looking at the ECTO, rather a point about an inch above his left eyebrow:: ECTO: Excuse my bluntness, but we don't see many of "your kind" through this station.
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::looks around for a familiar face::
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
::wonders if waitresses always have to give people a ridiculous name::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
Adm Weatherby: It isn't the artificial stuff that you get from the replicator. This actual tea from Earth that I keep, brewed by me.
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
XO: Good.  I wonder how Starfleet will react to the reports that we filed.
Host Adm_Weatherby says:
CIV: No thank you, I can't stand the stuff, brings me out in a rash.  Anyway, I just wanted to say congratulations on your last mission.  Although the devices you recovered are completely useless without the generator to power them you have at least managed to stop a group that could have caused havoc in this region of space.
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
Lenore: My kind? uh Klingons, we’re not very sociable
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
:: Shrugs:: CO: As they will.  Might I suggest you take your time off?  I have the ship in hand.  Upon your return I will see what is about.
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
Adm Weatherby: It wasn't all me Sir, the rest of the Luna away team helped. I tried to salvage what I could
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
::finds the right page and starts reading, hopefully in peace::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
Lenore: You hungry?
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
XO: Are you certain that you would not like to take leave?  Mister Jones can keep watch over the ship
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
CO: I have him listed on the watch after me.
Host Lenore says:
ECTO: I suppose I could be ::grabs hold of the ECTO's arm and squeezes, suprisingly tightly:: You have somewhere in mind?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
Adm Weatherby: There is no love for us Intelligence guys, this crew doesn't trust me or like me all that much. But something I have been dealing with ever since coming out of retirement and serving in Star Fleet Intelligence.
Host Adm_Weatherby says:
CIV: I am aware of that Captain ::smiles::  I am also aware of the distrust the crew have in you, I have received quite a few... interesting reports.  Can I give you a piece of advice?
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
XO: I see.  :: Stares down his XO, trying to decide if all is right or not ::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::smiles slightly and calls over waitress::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
:: Still not looking him straight in the eyes::  CO: Is there anything you need before you head out?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
Adm Weatherby: As my father always says, it doesn't matter if people like you or not, as long as you do your job and you do it without regret or emotional ties.
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
XO: I am not certain.  It is unlike you to act this way.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Finished with her report, sends it out and without a second thought, grabs a light jacket and heads out the door before anyone else wants something.::
Host Waitress says:
::arrives quite promptly at the ECTO's table, apparently now chewing some sort of confectionary:: ECTO: Awww ain't you too sweet.  What can I get'cha hun?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
Adm Weatherby: Besides, everybody has always acted indifferent to me when they find out that I'm the son of an Admiral.
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
Waitress: Gagh and bloodwine thanks
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
CO: What way?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
Adm Weatherby: So I have been dealing with sort of thing throughout my entire Star Fleet career
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
XO: You are being avoiding, hiding.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Checking with the duty officer she heads off the ship and into the crowd of people.::
Host Adm_Weatherby says:
::smiles a peace talk winning smile:: CIV: But remember it's better to stand in the warm with friends than all alone in the cold, and space is very cold.  Trust me, I know about these things.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
CO: No... I am right here.  I have just been taking some extra quite time in my quarters.  Nothing odd about that.
Host Waitress says:
ECTO: We only have the replicated Gagh ::chews impatiently::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
Waitress:: That’ll be fine thanks
ECO_Capt_Durron says:
::watches the landing bay crew load the last crate of cargo onto the runabout, than checks off something on his PADD.  The Europa's Captain quietly thanks the cargo technicians, than heads into the station.::
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Wanders down the main area with nothing in mind.::
Host Waitress says:
::screws her face up in a way that could be a smile and scurries off ::
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
XO: You are not here.  You will not meet my eyes.
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::looks around again for a familiar face::

ACTION: En route from the landing bay the ECO is passed by a child running by, screaming and holding what appears to be a handful of fur...

XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
:: Sighs and looks at him directly::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
Adm Weatherby: Understood sir, I shall remember that on my next duty assignment
Host Lenore says:
ECTO: I have never had... Gagh before, is it good?
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::grins:: Lenore: Let’s just say it’s an acquired taste
ECO_Capt_Durron says:
::quietly watches the child running down the hall than turns to face who or whatever is chasing the youth::
Teebo says:
::thoroughly licks his tail, seemingly counting every single hair that kid has ripped out::
Host Adm_Weatherby says:
CIV: Good.  Oh and I thought you might like to know, the Stilgarian Ambassador is onboard this station, perhaps that’s something to note in your reports to SFI? ::stands and heads towards the exit::
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Enters a small general cafe that promised variety if not anything really good.::
Host Waitress says:
::plunks the mug of coffee down heavily on the table in front of the FCO and the bowl of water on the floor:: FCO: Here ya go.
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
XO: Are you certain you are well?
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
Waitress: Thanks ::wonders whatever she did to her::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
Adm Weatherby: Anyway Sir, I have finished my evaluation of Capt. Savar. I think that he is of Admirals worth. ::hands him the PADD::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
CO: I am perfectly healthy.  And you are wasting time.  ::Smiles::  Go captain.  I promise your ship should be here upon your return.  At least I promise not to take her out for a spin.
ECO_Capt_Durron says:
::Shrugs than resumes his walk along the hallway to the stations commerce center::
Host Adm_Weatherby says:
::takes the PADD from the CIV and tucks it into the fold of his jacket:: CIV: Thank you Captain, good day ::exits::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::notices the SO: Self: By Kahless
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Looks around and nods as the waitress approaches her.::
Host Lenore says:
::notes the ECTO's reaction:: ECTO: Friend of yours?
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::catches his breathe:: Lenore oh sorry, I don’t know yet
Host Waitress says:
::arrives at the SO's table and blows a bubble while playing with her hair:: SO: Yeah?
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
XO: I hope we can find time to talk when we both have returned.
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan instead of sitting back down after the Admiral left, he walks over to the desk on the other side of his quarters and picks up the PADD that he makes reports in and makes notes that the Stilgarian Ambassador is onboard this station::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
CO: We will... now off with you.  ::smiles::
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
:: Gives a slight salute ::  XO: Aye, Commander.
ECO_Capt_Durron says:
::steps into the station’s Promenade keeping an eye out for the ECTO, but mostly looking for a cafe.::

ACTION: As the ECO enters the promenade he notes a gathering of children near the cafe, they appear to be excited about something

ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
Lenore: You’ll have to excuse me
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Takes a seat::  Waitress:  Something long and cold and sweet.
Host Lenore says:
::smiles:: ECTO: Of course, I have places I need to be anyway.  Perhaps we will finish this another time.
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
XO: The ship is yours.  :: shuts down his console and exits the ready room, wondering where they can go on short notice ::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
Lenore: Yes thank you for your company
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::slowly makes his way across the room::
ECO_Capt_Durron says:
::steps up to the group of kids and squats down so he is closer to their height,:: Kids: What is so exciting?
Host Lenore says:
::smiles and leaves the table, exiting the cafe::
Host Child7 says:
ECO: Look - there is a Wolf in there, a real life Wolf!
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::slowly makes his way across the room to the SO::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
:: Watching the captain go, her smile slips a bit.  She looks at the picture behind his desk and turns away, heading out back onto the bridge.::
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Thanking the waitress for the drink, she turns around and leans back against the counter, looking over those there.::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
SO: What a magnificent creature, I haven’t seen one in many years
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
:: riding down the turbolift, he calls ahead to his quarters to inform his wife they are leaving on a whim ::
Host Waitress says:
::meanwhile has been battling with a bowl of Gagh, arrives at the now empty table and takes her frustration on a nearby patron, who unfortunately ends up covered in dead worms::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::After finishing his report to SFI, Ewan sat the PADD back down on his desk and decides to go on the station for some action::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
:: Moves over to the science station and takes a seat, pulling up anything new in the area of science.::
ECO_Capt_Durron says:
::rises up a bit and nods:: Child Number 7: There is indeed, and apparently a bowl of Gagh.  ::makes a mental note to eat at a different cafe.::
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Her eyes turn to the man standing next to her.::  ECTO: Creature?  Where?
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
SO: The wolf
Host Child7 says:
::goes back to task of spying through window, having lost interest in the ECO::
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Finds the wolf in question and nods::  ECTO: Ahh... Commander Shania's companion, Teebo.
Host CO_Capt_Savar says:
:: Enters their quarters, where Amber has begun packing already, excited to leave ::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
SO: Ah.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Had missed the flight officer, but now realized why she had seen children about outside the cafe.::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan exited his quarters on his way to the turbo-lift so that he can get to the airlock and head for the nearest pub::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::looks over the SO and blushes deeply::
ECO_Capt_Durron says:
::smiles wistfully than stands up than looks around again::
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Notes the blush and finds it interesting on a Klingon::  ECTO: You here with a ship?
Host Lenore says:
::gently bumps into the ECO:: ECO: Oh I am sorry.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
::Notes the uniform of a tactical officer.::
ECO_Capt_Durron says:
::looks at Lenore.:: Lenore: No problem.
Host Amber says:
:: Asks if they need to pack the bathing suits ::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
SO: I am Wolf son of Gar`vir CTO of the Europa
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan steps off the turbo-lift and makes his way to the airlock. Following along with some junior Luna officers::
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Nods a greeting::  ECTO: I am Lieutenant Silver, science officer aboard the USS Luna... temporarily on R&R.
Host Lenore says:
::rubs the ECO's hand for a moment:: ECO: I would love to stay and chat, but I am wanted elsewhere.  Perhaps another time.
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
SO: Drink?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::He steps onto the Station and heads for his favorite pub to grab an ale and a scotch::
SO_Lt_Silver says:
ECTO: I am fine with my drink at the moment.  However, I was thinking of heading somewhere for dinner in a bit.
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
SO: Like some company?
ECO_Capt_Durron says:
::places a hand, the one she was rubbing, on Lenore's shoulder.:: Lenore: Do you mind telling me what you just put on my hand?  Oh and you can give me the PADD back too.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Looks the man over and nods her head with a smile::  ECTO: Sure... I would like that.  Do you have any place in mind?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan downs the shot of scotch and grabs the ale and starts drinking from the tankard::
ECTO_LtJG_Wolf says:
::relaxes slightly:: SO: Ladies choice
SO_Lt_Silver says:
ECTO: I enjoy trying new things.  So in that, I am easy.
Host Lenore says:
::indicates the excitable child who is running away with a PADD:: ECO: You mean that PADD there?
ECO_Capt_Durron says:
::doesn’t look:: Lenore: No, not that one.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
:: Taking a call from base security she listens and then deals with the situation before returning to quietly enjoying the updates.::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
:: Ewan finishes the ale and orders two more::
