<<<<<<<<<<<<Begin Mission>>>>>>>>>>>>

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::stands in the back of the bridge by the MSD::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Takes the ship to impulse and prepares for station keeping::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::enters the Bridge::

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Scans the Cloud Sailor from science one::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Dressed in a weird looking lime green / gray suit complete with comm-badge, reading a PADD on a recent meeting. His thoughts are still on Lisa though::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::sitting in the chair::  Everitt: Hail the Cloud Sailor and ask them to transfer there route to flight control.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Exits a TL onto the bridge, still reading his PADD::

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
ACTION: The Course is fed through to the Helm

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Begins making his rounds around the bridge, wishing everyone a jolly good day::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Sir. Cloud Sailor flight plan received and logged.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Everitt: Inform Sailor that we will be ready to leave as soon as they are, warp 6 cruising speed.

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CO: Captain, we're still seven days away from the storm. I'm looking into the specifics of the threats against the Cloud Storm now. ::searches the database::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::takes a second look at Sulek, and wonders whether to take the Engineering station, the chair on Sulek's left-hand side, or the unmanned OPS station::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ved: Lay in course and speed, standard escort range of the Cloud Sailor.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::with Sulek's second command, he quickly jumps to the OPS station, and hails the vessel::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Spots the CIV at the back, and once he's come around full circle:: CIV: G'day, Inspector. And how are you?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: Contact Cruise-Line for specifics of the threats.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Aye sir. Course laid and helm set to match speed.

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
ACTION: The Cloud Sailor beings to undock and drift away from the platform

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*Computer*: transfer all Tactical control to helm station.

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CO: Captain, the threats have been of unknown origin, mostly general death threats from what I've got here.:: examines::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::notifies the Could Sailor to transfer its route, and that the Quirinus is awaiting its departure::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Everitt:  Please transfer engineering to Ops and man from there.  I'll need your coverage of both for a while.

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Sets the sensors to monitor all communications from and to the Cloud Sailor::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Sir Tactical and weapons have slaved to the helm as ordered.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
CO: Aye, sir.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ved: Understood.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
CO: Sir, we have received course data from the Cloud Sailor.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::adds Engineering control to his console::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Everitt:  Understood. Keep a clear line channel to Cloud Sailor.

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
ACTION: The Cloud Sailor begins to head out of the system at 1/2 impulse.

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CO: I'm monitoring all communications from and to the Cloud Sailor. If any more threats come through, we should know about it. I'm monitoring their internal comms as well.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*Computer*: Begin background checks on all passengers aboard the Cloud Sailor. Check crew and cargo manifests as well.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn:  Good.  Keep me apprised.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ved: Engage

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
FCO: ETA to the ion storm?

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Keeps pace with the Cloud Sailor at a respectable distance::

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
<Computer> Ved: Unable to comply, Passenger lists are sealed.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CEO: 7 days.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::sits back and watches the screen as the two ships proceed.::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::decides to hold any plans of protection for later::

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Examines the storm form LRS....not getting much::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Sir. This is rather odd. The passenger list of the Cloud Sailor is sealed.

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::a bit lost in thought, zones back in::  Cns:  Sorry, Counselor - I'm well.  How are you?

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::Walking down the hallway on deck four...trying to seem casual, but making sure no one is watching him::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
CIV: Adjusting.

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Aren't we all....

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ved: Contact the Cruise-line and see if you can get clearance.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
CIV: Actually, I wanted your opinion on something ...

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Aye Sir

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::raises an eyebrow, focusing fully on the CNS now::  CNS:  Professional opinion?

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
CIV: Yes, about a patient of mine.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::When the coast is clear, walks quickly to the Counselor's office door and pushes the chime::

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Perhaps your office would be a better place; at least, more private

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
COMM: New Horizons Lines, this is the USS Quirinus requesting clearance to passenger manifest of the Cloud Sailor.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Shrugs:: CIV: If you wish.

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
FCO: Let me know if they refuse to release the passenger manifest. We may have a - relatively - unobtrusive way to obtain it :: Grins::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Aye sir

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Up to you, of course; what's going on?

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
XO: Any unusual proportions of life signs on the Cloud Sailor?

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Leads the CIV to the TL:: CIV: A second opinion about a patient of mine. I'm unsure of whether or not she is lapsing back into her previous ... state.

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
<Nova Horizons> COMM *Ved* Negative Quirinus, our passenger lists are confidential.  We run security checks ourselves.  I'm sorry, I'm unable to grant you that request.  Our passengers enjoy their privacy.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::waits impatiently for an answer, then... hearing someone coming down the hall, quickly starts walking again... casual like::

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::follows the CNS into the TL::  CNS:  Hmm - what's their previous condition?

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CEO: The usual mix of lifesigns...it's hard to pinpoint at this time, with so may people on board.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
CIV: The patient was suffering from trauma in regard to the loss of her cousin's life during the Dominion War. Emotional stress disorder. She had an extreme fear of away team missions. However, after some time, she worked through it.

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  And what makes you believe she is relapsing?

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::keys the CNS' deck::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
COMM: Nova Horizons. We appreciate and respect your privacy policies. However you have asked for our assistance in escorting the Cloud Sailor to prevent shall we say rather embarrassing public relations situations for you?

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
CIV: She's been acting extremely peculiar lately. Much more nervous and unwilling to speak on subjects. Avoiding social contact.

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::thinks...::  CNS:  Was she on one of our recent Away Teams?  Involved with the Zoo?

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CEO/FCO: I have a suspicion...and I'd like both of you to work on it, mind you it's a hunch, but I believe the threats are most likely coming from someone on board the Cloud Sailor. FCO: You might want to inform them of that. Maybe they will release the manifest.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
CIV: No, she remained on the ship ... at least I believe she did.

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Has she mentioned anything out of the ordinary?  ::notices the lift doors open::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Working on it sir.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::When the person passes by, he goes again to the CNS's door and rings the chime::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Exits:: CIV: No. Not at all ... then again, every time I've tried to talk to her, the Captain has called me off on one duty or another.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::grumbles, wondering why they should bother trying to a protect a ship that won't even let them::

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Damnable luck, that.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
COMM: Nova Horizons. Please respond to last transmission.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Exits:: CIV: I believe so. ::Spots a person at his door:: OConnor: Can I help you, Mr ... ?

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::Rubs his bald head...hoping that the counselor is just busy with something but will answer soon::

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::stands slightly behind the CNS::

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::Jumps at the counselors greeting::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
OConnor: Easy there. I'm Counselor Raythan ... ::Smiles::

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::Turns quickly, seeing the CNS and the Prism guy that has most of the enlisted nervous.  Rubs his Deltan hands together::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn:  Any comm trafic on the Cloud Sailor?

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: Uhh... Yes, sir... I know...  Good morning Counselor... Lt  ::nods::

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CO: Just the usual banter...nothing of note

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::nods at the....Yeoman...if he remembered his rank signage properly::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
OConnor: Is there something I can help you with?

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
<Nova Horizons> COMM Ved: Negative, we have checked our own manifest thoroughly.  Cloud Sailor Out.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::Before CNS and CIV is a young , full blooded Deltan... obviously nervous::

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CO: Captain, they're refusing to release the passenger manifest. I can attempt to break into their system, however if discovered, I'm certain they would be less than pleased.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: Ummm if you are busy sir... I can come back later..

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::if a saboteur was onboard, there seemed little means of flushing him out without further cooperation.  perhaps Pangborn's insistence of the Cloud Sailor was the only route::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn:  Perhaps we just need to apply the right pressure.  Inform Starfleet that our job of escort is being impeded.

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::scans the ship and focuses on identifying lifesigns:: CO: Will do. ::sends out a subspace communiqué::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Looks at the CIV:: CIV: Could we meet later, Inspector?

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::checks various Federation outposts, ships, and systems in their upcoming route for unusual reports::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Continues to monitor course and speed, places TAC sensors on wide sweep::

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Of course, you know where to find me....::nods at him at the Yeoman and then heads back to the lifts::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Nods at the Inspector, and gestures for OConnor to join him in his office::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
CO: We could insist on not providing an escort unless they fully cooperate, or would that be outside our bounds, sir?

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::nervously nods goodbye to the Black and white dressed man::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Enters into the office:: OConnor: Please come inside, Mr. ... I'm afraid I didn't catch your name?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Everitt:  Not without Starfleet approval.

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
FCO:  Commander Ved, I'd like you to use the tactical sensors and try and locate any "unusual" weapons on board. Anything remotely disrupter or non-federation issue.

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
FCO: Passive scans only.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Sir. I'm afraid given our current situation we have no right without provocation.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::adds in:: XO/FCO: As well as any chemical or biological components that could be used as a weapon.

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::re-enters the lifts and heads back up to the bridge::

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: Ahh.. its O'Connor.  I know I know... not a typical Deltan name...but... Its a long story.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Sir even passive scans at this point in time would be a violation of law.

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::disgusted:: FCO: Just run passive scan, don't let them know. Why are they refusing to cooperated when they want out help? ::irritated:: FCO: Understood.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Nods:: OConnor: I'll take your word for it. ::Gestures at him to take a seat:: How can I help you?

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::moves into the CNS's office. taking note of the decor::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::ponders the situation, and wonders where one's duty lies::

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
All: Apparently were supposed to relax and enjoy the ride. Starfleet has responded and their orders are just to escort

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ved: How about crew manifests?  Are they available?

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Still working on that aspect as well as the cargo.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::sits down... restlessly, moves in the chair, trying to get comfortable, finally sits on the edge:: CNS: Uhhh.. welll, I had a problem that I thought I could take care of... that maybe like... it was a one time thing and all... but  Uhhh

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::takes another route of thought, and tries to devise a plan of getting aboard the ship::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn:  I concur.  Although enjoying a ride into an ion storm seems illogical.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Takes a seat:: OConnor: Only tell me what you feel comfortable saying.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::stands up and paces a few time, then sits down again::

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CO: Looks like we're just along for the ride...play chess?

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::arrives on the bridge, taking his place again in front of the MDS::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn:  It was one of the first earth games I learned.  A most interesting challenge.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO/XO: If you both wish to join the Captain of the Cloud Sailor, it is customary to request to do so. This way you might gain some info voluntarily?

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: Well.... this is... It's like this... Well... You understand about Deltans, Right?  I mean, you understand that we can.. That I can... that we have become ... Well.. you see

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Watches OConnor with curiosity::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Nods:: OConnor: I'm well aware of the nature of Deltan's.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::Nervously wipes the sweat off his bald head::

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CO/FCO: Interesting observation Ved, Captian? Perhaps if we invite him here, he will respond in kind.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: Good... well then you can understand why I am in such a bad shape.... Well it's like this....

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn/Ved: An excellent suggestion.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS:  I can't keep an erection any more

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Everitt: Open a channel.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::stares at the Counselor for a reaction::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Tilts head:: OConnor: I believe that is something you might want to see the Doctor about, Mr. OConnor.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: Well I cant...

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::opens a channel to the Sailor Cloud::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
OConnor: You can't see the Doctor about this?

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: You see... I know we took an oath of celibacy and all... I have kept to it.. at least on the Q..

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
COMM Cloud Sailor:  Cloud Sailor Captain, this is Captain Sulek of the Quirinus.  I've been informed that is customary that we meet.  I would like to extend my invitation to you to meet aboard the Q.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
OConnor: So this isn't a physical problem, you are referring to the oath of celibacy?

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: But... uhhh, you see... If I go to the Doctor it gets into my medical record... and that is something I just cant live with...

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
<Captain Terra Patel> COMM: *Sulek* Ah Captain, I would be delighted.  Shall I beam over around 1800?

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
OConnor: The Doctor is a very understanding person. I'm sure if you asked her, she could have it ... classified in some fashion. Besides, medical records are generally private things in the first place.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: Well no it's not a physical problem... At least I don't think so.  I wake in the mourning with the usual erection... but when I try to be with a woman...it...falls.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
COMM Patel:  That would be most acceptable.  I'll have someone in transport show you to my ready room at that time.  Sulek out.

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Pleasantly surprised:: CO: Full dress uniforms?

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Still compiling crew and cargo manifests. I'm running into the same privacy issues.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn:  I do not think that will be necessary.  Ved:  You seem to understand this custom.  What is expected?

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Nods along slowly ... partially wishing he had put this off to later. Was really wanting to get a second opinion on Lisa...::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Sir simple pleasantries and exchange of "Captain" tales.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ved: Understood.  Everitt: Contact the Captain of the Cloud Sailor and see if there is anything special he would like to eat or drink that we can provide.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
OConnor: I see. And this has happened often?

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: There was this wonderful person....in the zoo... and we were so, scared and alone and crazy in there that... well we fell in each others arms.  I was going to show her things like she never had before...but then...flat.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::attempts to contact the Cloud Sailor again, requesting the Captain's yeoman or personal aid::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn:  I believe, a swapping of tales involves food and libation.  Once Everitt gets the information see that all is provided in my ready room.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
OConnor: Was this the first time?

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::folds his arms across his chest, listening in to things bridge-wide::

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CO: Will do Sir. Hope Y'all have a pleasant time. I'll make sure all is in order in your ready room.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Sir might I suggest Lt. MacTavish join you as well?

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: And before that... there was the red head on Cronar... She didn't understand it at all.

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::ear perks up::  me?

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
OConnor: Have you considered the possibility that... ::Wonders how he phrases this:: ... you are not interested in females any more?

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: and before that was the twins on Risa... My gosh... I couldn't even perform with TWINS!

Host XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CEO: Let me know when you find out the details of what their requirements are.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::stands and paces again::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Sir. With a "Civilian" presence along Capt. Patel may be more inclined to be a bit freer with information.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Looks at the Yeoman, waiting for an answer to his last question::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ved: An excellent suggestion.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::quite experienced with various cultures, he implements the aid's suggestion with ease:: XO: I already have, sir.

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::Stops:: CNS: The first time?  ummm that would be about a year ago...

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
MacTavish:  Care to join us for our meeting.  Civilian attire, however, might be less formal.

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CO:  Chess was never really my bag, but, if the Captain so requests, I can join you.  Would you prefer Class A's?

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: Not interested in women?  What else would I be interested in?

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::The sarcastic part of his mind answers - "Men? Animals? Warp Cores?":: OConnor: Well, perhaps the same sex ... I am not saying you are, just to put that out in the open, however.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Adjusts distance between ships to give the Cloud Sailor wider berth ::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
MacTavish:  I merely did not want the Captain to be surprised by a Prism uniform.  I do not know if we will play chess.  But certainly you have many stories to "swap".

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::makes requests to the galley, not entirely of food::

Yeoman_OConnor says:
::Freezes in... horror?... disgust?... interest?...::

Yeoman_OConnor says:
CNS: Men?

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Nods::
