U.S.S. Pendragon
10409.11
Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
Captain's Log - SD 10409.11

The trial of the Pendragon crew is to begin today.  Lt. White has been handed the task of presenting our side of the matter and defending the Senior Staff.  The known outcomes are less than desirable with a lifetime hidden away in the mines being the most promising at this point in time.

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
Whether we are given the chance to present our version of what had transpired or it is given any credit whatsoever to our defense remains doubtful.  I can only hope that in the Jolian quest for order, they will listen to the logic of Pendragon justice, as twisted as that may appear.

Host Cat says:
Action: The crew of the Pendragon has been reunited prior to their trial, which is to take place in one hour's time. They are all in a large meeting room, seated at a large, oval table.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::looks at the Captain::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::gets up to walk quietly, gathering thoughts - places hand gently on the CEO's shoulder while passing::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
XO: I am confident, if you are looking for my feelings toward the day.

FCO_White says:
::looks up at the mention of his name blinks once and continues to review the computer tapes::

FCO_White says:
CO: I'm afraid that they won't be thinking to highly of us sir.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::looking to the FCO while walking::  CO: I know Mr. White will do a fine job.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: cringes slightly at Irvin's touch ::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
FCO: I am confident you will do everything in your power to make this right.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ CEO: Albaron? ~~~

FCO_White says:
CO: I feel that it will not be nearly enough sir.

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
Self: ::in a whisper:: I can practically see the negative energy in here..

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
FCO: However, it is all I can ask of you.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::looks toward the FCO::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: looks up... what's that? ::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::stands and stretches his legs::

FCO_White says:

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: unh... who? ~~~

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::looks at the CEO::

TO_Ens_Liu says:
::Checks out his biceps.::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
FCO: Of course we are.  WE failed to maintain order.  We did not understand the rules.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
CO: That encounter with Q...   It taught me a few things...   ::still walking around the room::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::looks at the TO's biceps::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ CEO:  It's Jordan, Albaron.  Remember? ~~~

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
XO: I'm listening.....  ::glances to the XO::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: Jor... dan. Jor-dan. Jordan. ~~~

FCO_White says:
CO: Yes but...::sighs and tries to find a loophole in the laws::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::looks back to the CEO::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
CO: Taught me two things actually...   First, I really must learn to govern my passions.  Second....   EVERYTHING happens for a reason and thus should not be changed.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::looks worried::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
FCO: Our best hope is that there is some tolerance of outsiders.  They knew we were long from home with no means to end up here on our own.....

FCO_White says:
::nods and adds something to a quickly scribbled list::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
::concentrates solely on the CEO:: ~~~ CEO:  I am here.  ~~~

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::bites his lip to keep from yelling:: ::in a low voice:: ALL: Could some of you at least try to think positive? You all are depressing me even more then *some* of us are.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::looks at Jordan with wonder::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
XO: Noted.  And I plan to hold you to that....  

FCO_White says:
CO: I need to talk to you sir, ::shakes his head.::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: Jordan. Yes. I had Thraxis back, Jordan. I was whole... for a few minutes... ~~~

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::moves toward White and whispers::  FCO: Go ahead, Lt.

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
::looks around the table at the different reactions of the staff, is pleased that the impression is calm determination::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
CTO: Mr. Newind.....  We're all dealing with this as best we can...  

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ CEO:  I know ... stay with me, OK? ~~~

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::shudders::

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::hangs his head and sighs::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::searches for a sense of calm::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::approaches the CTO:: CTO: We will get through this...   We've been in tougher spots before....

FCO_White says:
::whispers:: CO:I don't think we are going to be able to get Thraxis back.  And considering what I have read we may have to give up one of our crewmembers.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::places hand on the CTOs shoulder::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::looks towards Toms::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: Okay. Okay. Stay with you. Stay with me. I thought you were a dream, Jordan. ~~~

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
XO: Yea.. I know.. But even though I.. We.. know that this is how it's supposed to be, I still feel so helpless.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: rocks gently back and forth ::

FCO_White says:
::glances at the XO than returns to looking at the CO::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
::smiles:: ~~~ CEO:  Good to have you back. ~~~

TO_Ens_Liu says:
All: If we are to give up one of the crewmembers, I happily volunteer my services.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::turns toward the TO::  TO:  That won't be necessary

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
FCO: You just focus on getting us out of here.  The Thraxis symbiont may already be lost beyond our capability.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
::looks over towards the CNS::

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::shoots a look at the TO:: TO: That won't be necessary..

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: Not all of me. Not all here. Trying to remember... Thraxis remembered. He knew. ~~~

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
CTO: Well, I can only think of one thing to say to that...   It sometimes is necessary to give ones self up to the situation at hand before it gets better.  Have faith Ensign.  ::pats the CTOs should and keeps walking::

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
CNS: Heh.. great minds think alike..

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::smiles ever so slightly and looks back at Toms::

FCO_White says:
::continues to whisper:: CO: Ok.  I'll do my best, but I’m a pilot...

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
CEO:  What did he know, Albaron?

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
FCO: True, but you were chosen for this task.  I can only ask that you fulfill it to the best of your ability.  No more, no less.

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::thinks about the XO's words:: Self: Worse before better, worse before better.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::wishes they would just get on with it::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ CEO: Albaron, what did Thraxis know?  This could be important. ~~~

FCO_White says:
::nods to the CO and smiles half heartedly than goes back to what he was looking at::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::pats the FCO on the shoulder and walks on, looking out a window::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::leans back in his chair and closes his eyes::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::while walking - pauses before passing the Captain and whispers::  CO: What's up?

Host Cat says:
Action: The window overlooks a beautiful, crystal clear lake.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: Not sure. So... clouded. Thraxis... someone called Suh... Sunken... Surden? ~~~

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
XO: Mr. White is concerned and there may be a loophole.  However, I have no intentions of pursuing it.

FCO_White says:
::stands up and walks over to the CNS::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::opens his eyes and sees the FCO approaching::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
CO: Well, depends on the cost....

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::stands::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
XO: It's not a subject I am even going to entertain... drop the subject.

FCO_White says:
CNS: I am going to be calling witnesses, and if you don't mind I would like to call you sir.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ CEO:  The Zircon? ~~~

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::stares out the same window::  CO: That bad huh.....

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::nods and looks at the FCO intently::  FCO:  You are just unconventional enough to do this, David.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: Zircon. Yes. New memories. Thraxis knew. ~~~

FCO_White says:
CNS: I plan on doing everything I can.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::nods again::  FCO:  It will be enough

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ CEO:  Can you tell me what Thraxis knew.  This could really help us. ~~~

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
XO: For me, yes.  I do not care for the possible shortcut.  This culture has proven difficult to understand and the trade-offs may be just as difficult.  We will have to rely on the truth and what Mr. White's knowledge of their laws.

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
<there = the>

FCO_White says:
CNS: I'm going to ask you about two things mainly.  Our responses and how the CEO has reacted to the... separation.  It may not help but I want as much pity as I can muster. ::winces on the word pity::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::still looking:: CO: Well...  You know what 'they' say...   The truth shall set you free.... 

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
FCO:  I will try to make them understand our perspectives.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: Dark. Very dark. Hard to see... Jordan? Are you here? I can't see you. ~~~

FCO_White says:
CNS: thank you.  I must be moving along now. ::nods and turns away::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ CEO:  I'm here, Albaron.  I won't leave you.  ~~~

FCO_White says:
::walks quietly over the CSO::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::watches the FCO walk away::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
XO: If it were only that simple...  ::chuckles::  What do you plan to do once we return on board?

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
CNS:  Mikal.  I might have something here ...

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::sits back down::

Host Cat says:
Action: A door opens and a gruntave scurries in and hands the FCO a note.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: Zircon. Thraxis. Not good. Twice failed. What failed? Still dark. ~~~

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
OPS:  Yes, Jordan?

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
::snaps out of his little thought pattern|:: XO: Fine sir.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::still standing there::  CO: Enroll in a diplomacy extension course....  ::chuckles::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ CEO:  Do you mean the joining didn't take? ~~~

FCO_White says:
CSO: may I have a moment of yo...::takes the note and thanks the gruntave::

FCO_White says:
::reads the note::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
CNS:  Albaron might have some memories of when the symbiont was returned to him by Q.  I need more time to find out more ...

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
::looks to the FCO::

Host Cat says:
Action: The note instructs him that they have 15 minutes until the trial begins.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: Joining. Joinings. Two before. Two failed. ~~~

FCO_White says:
ALL: Well folks we have fifteen minutes.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
OPS:  Keep me updated.  ::stands::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ CEO:  They tried to join Thraxis with the Zircon twice and it failed twice? ~~~

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
FCO:  I don't suppose the rules would allow you to question Thraxis?

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::nods to the FCO::  XO: I plan to head to Zalda.  I have an old friend I need to track down.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: Dark. Still dark... Not Thraxis. Earlier. Before we came. Zircon remembers. Pain. Much pain. ~~~

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::smiles while looking out the window::  CO: I haven't talked to my girlfriend since I 'arrived' on the Pendragon...   

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
CO: Something that I should probably do....

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ CEO:  What else did Thraxis remember?~~~

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~

FCO_White says:
::motions to the guntative and quickly writes on the back of the note 'Dear sir or ma'am,  with respect and admiration I would ask that in your wisdom you return to us the humble clothing that we arrived with. Many thanks in advance David A. White."::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
FCO:  Can you call the Zircon to testify?

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
CNS:  This is interesting ... it seems that before the Thraxis symbiont two other joinings were tried .. and both failed ...

FCO_White says:
::hands the note to the Guntative and thanks him again::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
XO: Speaking of... I don't remember giving you a proper reception.  Remind me when we are back on board.  ::forcing optimism, but probably not pulling it off::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
CO: Permission to speak freely sir?

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
OPS:  They have their own source of symbionts?  ::is obviously missing the significance::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: More pain. Pain now. Third... third... not good. Pain. Rejection. ~~~

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
XO: As always, Cmdr.

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::growls in frustration.. moves to the floor and starts doing pushups::

FCO_White says:
CSO: As I was saying I am going to need you to testify.  Simply I want you to tell the court where we are from and your analysis of their technology. sir.

Host Cat says:
<Gruntave>::takes the note, bows and exits::

TO_Ens_Liu says:
::looks at CTO and follows suit::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::looks oddly to the CTO::  Self: Now there' s someone in need of a girlfriend....

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
FCO: Very well. I will do that

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
CO: Please don't...  I can't stand all the pomp and circumstance.  It gives me gas...  ::chuckles::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
CNS:  I don't know.   We need to try to contact Thraxis telepathically.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::watches the Grunave leave::

FCO_White says:
CSO: Thank you.

FCO_White says:
::walks over to the OPS and CEO::OPS: How is he?

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::looks quickly toward the Captain::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  Sir.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
~~~ OPS: Tired. So tired, Jordan. ~~~

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
XO: Who said anything about a stuffy reception?  ::grins::

FCO_White says:
Ops: more importantly do you think he will be able to testify in court?

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::hearing the CNS, looks over::

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
Self: 15... 16..

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
FCO:  Not good.  I am still with him telepathically but I don't know for how long.

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: Yes Counselor?

TO_Ens_Liu says:
CTO: Nothing like a good workout to brighten up our day eh?

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
FCO:  Not a chance.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  According to Jordan, the Thraxis symbiont shared some memories from The Zircon when the Q reunited them.

Host Cat says:
Action: A door opens and a emerald colored woman enters the room. She walks directly over to the CEO and begins to scan him with an oval instrument.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  It could be helpful to access Thraxis somehow.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
FCO:  I also suspect that the joining isn't working.  Albaron is talking about pain ...

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
::looks curiously at the Green lady, but does nothing::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: Really?  Please go on....  ::looks to the woman who just entered::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::notes the female come in and scan the CSO - approaches slowly::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ CEO:  Rest, Albaron.  I will stay with you. ~~~

FCO_White says:
OPS: ok.  I may need you to answer some questions about that...that especially .::Looks at the woman curiously::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: puts his head down on the table, and stops rocking :: 

Host Clovalia says:
::frowns at the results and scans him again::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
Clovalia: May I ask as to the purpose of your scan?

TO_Ens_Liu says:
::Stops his pushups, motions CTO to do the same.::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
::nods:: FCO:  I'll do what I can.

FCO_White says:
::walks over to the XO and smiles at the woman::

Host Clovalia says:
::pauses long enough to glance at the XO::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::fights the urge to be rude and forceful::

Host Clovalia says:
XO: I am checking on his physical condition.

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
~~~ ::pokes around, just out of curiosity::  ~~~

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
::looks quizzical at that statement::

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::stands up and walks over by the CSO::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
Clovalia: Ahh...  Your concern for our well being is most appreciated.

Host Clovalia says:
Action: as with the others, Clovalia is shielded.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::looks to the FCO as if to say "Is this enough butt kissing?"::

Host Clovalia says:
XO: It is my job. I am the Zircon's personal physician.

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::ears perk up at the statement::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  If we could contact Thraxis telepathically... he might be able to help us

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
::looks more quizzical at that::

FCO_White says:
::smiles idiot like at the XO than perks up at the statement::

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
Clovalia: You are? Can I ask about the symbionts condition?

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::watches Clovalia::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: Mikal, I am unsure if we can get through.  It may take a concentrated effort....

Host Clovalia says:
::makes a few adjustments and takes out another scanner::

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::realizes he may have just stepped out of line::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
CNS:  You must try.  I don't know how much longer I can keep Albaron with us.

Host Clovalia says:
CTO: The Zircon's health is always supreme. ::said very stiffly::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::does not understand what is happening::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::motions head at the FCO towards Clovalia::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
~~~ ::begins probing for any signs of the Thraxis symbiont:: ~~~

FCO_White says:
Clovalia: We are honored that the Zircon would grace us with the use of his personal physician.

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
Clovalia: Thank you.. but what about the symbiont? The CEO's... former.. symbiont?

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
~~~::begins searching as well::~~~

CSO_Lt_Toms says:

FCO_White says:

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::looks to the CNS::  NO!  She is a doctor and is helping him...   It's ok Mikal....

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::stops::

Host Clovalia says:
::glares at the rude and bothersome beings as she puts away her instruments::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
Clovalia: My apologies for Mr. Luchena's outburst....   Your attentiveness is most appreciated.

Host Clovalia says:
::mutters something along the lines to "No wonder they are up on charges".::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
::wonders what’s going on...::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::voice somewhat elevated::  ALL: Please stand down.  Allow the Zircon's physician to do what she came her for and mind yourselves.

Host Clovalia says:
Action: Thraxis' mental state suddenly clears. For the first time in days he feels...normal and right.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::walks over to the CNS and whispers::  CNS: I think I've gotten us into enough trouble.  You are not to say another word to the Jolians until asked to by myself, Captain Rofax, or Mr. White.  Is that clear Commander?

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: blinks two or three times, then speaks aloud :: All: Hey, folks. I'm hungry.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
::Laughs:: CEO:  Good to have you back.

Host Clovalia says:
Action: Two beefy magistrates are ready to escort them in.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::raises an eyebrow and makes a mental note, then heads out the door with the group::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::looks to the CEO and smiles::  ALL: Let's get moving.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: smiles at Jordan :: OPS: Jordan... thank you.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:

CTO_Ens_Newind says:

Host Pascha says:
Action: The crew is led into a large, ornate courtroom. It is a virtual rainbow of crystals and colors.

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
::goes with the rest::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::would normally be impressed with such a room, but instead feels empty of all emotion::

FCO_White says:

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::looks around at the surroundings::

Host Pascha says:
The is a large "bench" at the front of the room with seats for five people. Each seat is an ornate throne.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::wonders where they are to sit::

Host Pascha says:
Across from these thrones are two large tables, with enough seats for all of the crew.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::assumes its at one of those large tables::

TO_Ens_Liu says:

Host Pascha says:

::surprisingly, does not notice the gong until the others react::

TO_Ens_Liu says:
::Is still wondering where he's suppose to sit.::

Host Pascha says:
Action: The gallery stands as if one. A door to the right of the thrones opens, and four robed figures walk into the room. They stop in front of the smaller thrones and bow low.

Host Pascha says:
Action: One of these figures is Pascha.

FCO_White says:
::bows to the figures::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::notices Pascha::

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::motions the TO to sit near the CEO::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::follows the FCOs lead and bows, nodding to the rest of the crew to do so::

Host Pascha says:
Action: The gong rings again, and the entire gallery bows. The guards instruct the Pendragon crew to bow as well.

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
::bows::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::bows but keeps his eyes on Pascha::

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::bows.. regret tingly::

TO_Ens_Liu says:
::bows::

FCO_White says:
::continues bowing::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: bows ::

Host Pascha says:
Action: the Zircon enters the room majestically and takes the largest throne.

TO_Ens_Liu says:
::assumes position near CEO::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::follows suit with the others, surveying what he can::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::eyes widen as the Zircon enters::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: looks closely at the Zircon ::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::watches as the Zircon enters::

Host Pascha says:
Action: He waves a lazy hand and the gong sounds again.

Host Pascha says:
Action: The four robed figured take a seat.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
::watches the Zircon closely::

Host Pascha says:
Action: The gong sounds a final time and the gallery surges to their feet before taking their seats.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
~~~OPS:  There he is~~~

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::notes the robed figures sit down.. idly wondering if they are supposed to sit::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ CNS: Can you sense the symbiont? ~~~

FCO_White says:
::keeps bowing a moment more than rises and remains standing::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::rises from his bow and sits::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::is rather confused by the gallery's actions and attempts to make a mental note of what, when, and for how long::

Host Pascha says:
Crew: Please be seated.

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::does so::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
::sits::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::nods at Pascha one last time then sits::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
::sits::

FCO_White says:
::waits for the others to sit than dose so::

Host Pascha says:
::looks at the assembled crew and nods::

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::sits::

TO_Ens_Liu says:
::sits beside CEO::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: sits ::

Host Pascha says:
FCO: Lt. White, you have been told of the charges?

FCO_White says:
Pascha: I have been informed of the charges ma'am.

FCO_White says:
::folds his hands on the table in front of him::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
~~~::tries to sense the symbiont::~~~

Host Pascha says:
::nods:: FCO: And your answer to said charges?

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::looks to the FCO with a look of concern and trepidation::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::looks to the FCO, beaming confidence::

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::knows it's out of his hands now.. silently meditating::

FCO_White says:
::looks at the crew momentarily smiles crookedly and turns to Pascha::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::is too distracted by the sight of the lovely, long necked Pasha to concentrate::

Host Pascha says:
::looks at the FCO: FCO: Lt?

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::the silence is starting to wear at his beaming confidence::

FCO_White says:
Pascha: As representative of the crew of the Pendragon I will plead innocent on the grounds of ignorance of the laws.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
::looks at the CNS::

Host Pascha says:
::nods:: All: The plea has been heard and accepted. We will now proceed with the trial.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::remains intently focused on Pascha, his mind reliving the dream of her::

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::takes in what could be his last sane moments..::

FCO_White says:
::sighs preying that he is doing this right::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
::waits his turn to speak::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::sits up straight and attentively::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::breathes a slight sigh of relief at Pascha's response and looks directly to the Zircon::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
~~~ ::tries to contact the Thraxis symbiont:: ~~~

TO_Ens_Liu says:
::looking on::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::says a prayer::  Self: God, please don't let us screw this up

CTO_Ens_Newind says:
::whisper:: CREW: Don't look directly at the Zircon.. it might be offensive..
