Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Everitt: Check with the Mess and see that dinner is prepared and served in the captain's mess.

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CEO: Thanks Mr. Everitt, any idea what we can expect?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn:  Mr. Ved seems to think that casual will suffice.

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Smiles:: CO: That, I can do. And well at that.

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::rolls off the couch and hits the floor with a thud::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
ACTION: Something nibbles Morgan's ear while she's on the floor

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Sir. Since it is a pleasure vessel, casual ...I believe the word is chic' is preferred.

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::jumps up startled, yelps::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
ACTION: On the floor near Morgan is a small white mouse

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Enters into the Lounge reading his PADD::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::climbs quickly back onto the couch, staring down at the little mouse cautiously::  Mouse: Okay Mr. Mousie... move along.  Nothing to see here.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
<Mouse> ::Stares up at the large human on the couch::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Sir I think Lt. Raythan can advise you best on chic' attire.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
XO: Well Commander, she's human, female.  The rest I can only assume... although personally I think she'll prove to be quite interesting for the evening.

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::makes shooing motions at the little white creature::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
<Mouse> ::Moves closer to the couch and stares at the dancing human::

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CEO: Female? :: Curiosity piqued::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ved: An excellent suggestion.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
*Raythan*: Lieutenant Raythan report to the bridge.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Thank you sir.

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::climbs higher onto the couch, perching on the arm now.  Wonders if there is someone in charge of pest control::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Looks up from his PADD just as he was going to order a drink ... sighs:: Never a break. *CO* Aye, sir. ::Turns and exits, nodding an apology to the bartender::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
<Mouse> ::Nimbly climbs the couch material::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
XO: Yes, Terra Patel... ::leaves any comments about his sudden curiosity unsaid::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::bites back a scream:: Self: Okay.. just a mouse.  Silly little white creature.  Rodent.  Dirty.  Moves fast. Argh!!!  ::stares at the door wondering how fast she can run to the door and slam the wee fiend in::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Wishes he had pockets in his little civvie outfit to put the PADD away, chooses to carry it on the way::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
<Mouse> ::Tilts head to look at the silly human::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
ACTION: The Door Chime on Morgan's quarters sounds.

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CEO: I see. It should prove to be an interesting meeting

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::takes a few deep breaths and then lets out a scream at the sound of the chime::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::looks over his shoulder at Pangborn, and manages to hide his smirk::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
ACTION: A Scream can be heard on every Deck of the Quirinus

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Looks up at the scream::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
Person at the door: Come in! ::yells, shaking::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Looks up and recognizes Dr. Morgan's voice::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Looks around:: And who was that?

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::hears the scream and runs an internal scan::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::checks if that was broadcasted over the internal comm::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Shrugs and enters the TL:: TL: Deck One.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
XO: Ahh... what did that sound like to you sir?

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::getting creeped out 'cos no one answered... the door chimed.. and there is a DAMN MOUSE IN HER LIVING ROOM:::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: A most unusual noise.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::receives reports of the same occurrence throughout the ship::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Sir it was Dr. Morgan. There could be any number of reasons ..

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CEO/CO: I believe it was simply a very Loud scream from.....

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
<Unknown Crewman> ::Enters the room, and sees Percival::  Percival:  There you are... you naughty mouse.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
*CMO* Doctor, are you alright?

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::bites her cheek:: *CEO* Fine.  Big.. hairy.. scary... giant.. rodent!!!!  Big teeth.  Fierce!

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Arrives on the bridge:: ALL: Did anyone else hear that scream?

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
<Unknown Crewman> ::Walks over and picks up his mouse, petting him as he leaves without saying a word to Morgan::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
*CMO* Sorry, I didn't catch all that... are you sure you wouldn't like us to send someone over?

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::glares at the crewman:: Crewman: Get... It... OUT.. OF..HERE!!!

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Hears the Doctor screaming over the CEO's comm.:: Never mind.

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::takes a deep breath and falls onto her couch, shaking::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
*CEO* Uh.. no.. someone came...  took it away..

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
@ ::Heads to the Staff deck and the transporter room there, knowing she's drawing attention with her dress, enjoying the feel of so many eyes on her::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Scratches back of his head:: CO: So, Captain, what services do you require of me?

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
::Surprised the mouse didn't die of heart failure from the scream::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::closes his comm, and turns to the Captain:: CO: Perhaps I should check on her anyway, sir?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Raythan:  Ahh, Lt., We need 'chic' attire and Commander Ved thought you would be the right person to ask.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Everitt: On comm should suffice.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Gives a blank look to the Captain, then looks at Ved at the comm. Thinking - "Vulcans":: CO: I see ...

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::pulls the blanket over her head, bites down on the corner and screams her frustration and left over anxiety into the couch cushions::

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::surreptitious:: Sulek: Uh, Captain, I need to get ready for the meeting. Dress 'chic', correct? ::Looks sideways at the counselor::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
ACTION: Captain Patel appears in the Quirinus' transporter room, as the Transporter Chief's jaw drops.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
CO: Well, I'm not exactly familiar with all the latest fashions ... ::Glances at them all:: ... but I could replicate some items if you wish.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Raythan: You have on a number of occasions worn casual dress.  We have invited the captain of Cloud Sailor to dinner and require the appropriate attire.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Smiles seductively at the Transporter Chief, walks over slowly, leans over the transporter console, exposing her .. cleavage::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Sir transporter room reports Capt. Patel has transported aboard.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
TC: Hello.... ::Closes his jaw with her finger::... you should close that, you might get a fly in there.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::notices the transporter activity:: *TC* Report.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
<TC> ::Starts sweating and gulps, and starts stammering::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ved: Have her escorted to the Captain's mess unless she would like a tour.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
TC: Now where is this Captain with the sexy voice?

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
CO/XO/FCO: If you will provide me a few moments, I'll replicate you some attire ... Captain, may I use your ready room? ::Feels like he was just made ship's seamstress::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
<TC> ::Stammers some more, and manages to point to the door::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Aye sir. *TC*: A security team will escort Capt. Patel to the Mess, or on tour if she prefers.

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CNS: Sure...sounds like a plan

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CNS: I will not be joining the Capt. thank you.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Raythan: Of course

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
CNS: Are you available to provide an escort or tour for our guest?

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
TC: Thanks sweetheart ::Kisses the TC on the cheek and exits to meet a security officer that escorts her to the mess::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::firmly:: *TC* Transporter Chief, report.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
<TC> *Everit* Hummina.. Hummina... hummina..

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CNS: For myself... try looking up something I believe was called..."bluejeans"

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::takes a few deep calming breaths and gets out from under the blankie::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
CEO: Perhaps, if she'd be willing to wait a little while ... I have to replicate some clothing. ::Thinks the FCO should get some "chic attire" ... just for the comments from earlier:: XO: I'll keep that in mind, sir. ::To himself: "Yes, I'm pretty sure divine intervention is preventing me from talking to the Inspector"::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
ACTION: Morgan feels something move across the back of her neck as she lies face down on the couch

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: Join Raythan and I in the ready room.  Everitt: See that our guest is entertained and tell her we will be slightly delayed.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::crosses to the ready room::

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Follows::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::Jumps up, flinging whatever on her back across the room and screams blue murder::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Heads into the RR, heads over to the replicator ... pulls up "specs" on the command staff, and begins to replicate newest fashions ... except for the XO who requested blue jeans::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::checks the TC's vitals, and gets a report from another officer than the TC is "ok"::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Takes the bridge as the CO and XO leave::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
ACTION: A Snake flies across the room and begins the journey back to the couch.

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::screams again and runs out of her quarters::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Enters the Captain's mess, and grabs a glass of wine and takes a seat waiting for the Captain::  Self: Its not nice to keep a lady waiting...

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
ACTION: A Scream can again be heard throughout the ship.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Winces at the scream as the clothing replicates:: CO / XO: What exactly is wrong with the Doctor?

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
<Same Unknown Ensign> ::Sees Morgan running and realizes he found his snake too::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*CMO*: Doctor, what seems to be the trouble this time?

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::rubs his head:: *CO* Captain, perhaps now?

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::stuttering, still running and breathing deeply:: *FCO* Sssssn...snn... snake!!!!

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Downs her glass of wine and takes another from the Yeoman::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Everitt:  Please do.  We cannot have the Doctor acting as an alert.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*CMO*: I'll have security remove it for you.

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
*CEO* Please apply an acoustic dampening field to stop that noise from penetrating the ship

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CNS: I have no clue

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::makes a note of the Doctor's last known location, and heads for the TL::  *XO* I think we only need apply it to the Doctor's quarters, sir.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::in ready room:: Raythan what do you have for us.  I will also request that you join us.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Tosses clothing to the CO & XO:: Both: There you go. I'll let you change ... I'll wait on the bridge. ::Begins to exit:: CO: Certainly, Captain.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*SEC1*: Please respond to CMO Morgan's quarters and assist her.

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::still moving through the ship, not caring that she was still in her cut-off jean shorts and tank top::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
<Same Unknown Ensign>  ::Retrieves his snake and lizard and returns to his quarters::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::takes the clothing and quickly changes. He is unsure if he likes the look.  It is far from Vulcan robes.::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::arrives on deck 3, and moves to console, to check the last location of the Morgan, then moves in that direction::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*CEO*: Everitt. I've sent a security team to the Dr.'s quarters to assist. You may use them to assist you as well.

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::catches his clothes and steps into the head to change::*CEO*: Very well. Just as long as our guest is not disturbed

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
ACTION: Morgan rounds the corner and almost runs into Everitt

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
CMO: Whoa there...

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::stumbles, babbling a bit::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::waits for the XO::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::puts his hands out, and looks at the Doctor closely::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Takes a third glass of wine::  Self: I wish the Captain would hurry up

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
CEO: Oh.. sorry.. snake.. bad... ah..

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::talks slowly:: CMO: Where did you last see the snake?

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Puts on the jeans...or tries too...the jeans appear to almost be two sizes to small, squeezes into them anyway, put on the black T-shirt and renters the ready room:: CO: Ready when you are Sir.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Waits on the bridge for the CO & XO::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::takes a few deep breaths:: CEO: Uh.. my quarters.  I'm not staying there.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: Then shall we?  ::exits onto bridge:: Ved: You have the con.  ::crosses to TL::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Nods at the CO & XO:: CO / XO: Looking good, sirs. ::Gives a thumbs up as he comes along::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::tries to remain professional about it:: CMO: Well, I'm going to your quarters to find this snake, are you coming with me?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::holds the TL for Pangborn and Raythan.::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*CMO*: I'm ordering security to do a full sweep of your quarters for possible "intruder" entry points.

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::looks at him like he's nuts::  CEO: You want me to go BACK there???

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Starts on her fourth glass of wine and begins to swear at the Yeoman for the rudeness of the Captain::

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::follows him onto the bridge, then the turbolift:: CNS: Thanks ::Cheerful::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
TL: Captain's mess.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
CO: Aye sir. :: Looks and somehow feels the clothes are not quite right::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Chuckles::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
*FCO* Ah.. er.. o.. okay..

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
*FCO* Any reptilian life signs in the area?

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
CMO: How about I go, and you watch from a distance then?

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CO: Captain are your clothes unusually tight?

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::leans against the TL wall::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*CEO*: I have one reptilian lifesign accompanying a human down the corridor from the Dr's quarters.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: No they seem fine, but very different than Starfleet regulation.

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::chest heaving, still breathing deeply:: CEO: Ah.. maybe..  as long as you shoot it if it comes near me again.  Deal?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::Arrives at the Mess::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Crosses arms:: CO / XO: Don't blame me, I was only going by the specifications named by the computer.

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Wicked grin:: Sulek: Yes they are. ::follows him into the captains mess:: CNS: You did fine.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Follows along:: XO: Thanks, sir. Although I wouldn't count on me doing this often ...

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Turns to see three men enter, with very tight pants on, leaving nothing to the imagination.  She bites her lip as she swallows them whole with her eyes::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
CMO: Sure... ::has one of the TO's hand over his phaser::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::entering:: Patel:  Captain, forgive me.  I am new to these gatherings and wanted advice as to what was appropriate attire::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::looks around:: CMO: Your quarters are which way?

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::nods, muttering to herself as much as to him:: CEO: I can do that then.  I think so.  I'm tough.  I can handle that.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
Sulek: Oh my yes.. its very appropriate... Attire.

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CNS: You could have a future - in a place where people actually dress differently

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::nods back down the corridor::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
XO: I'll keep that in mind.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::not wanting to be insulting:: CMO: Yes... whatever you wish, Doctor.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::moving to a chair at the table and pulling it out:: Patel: Please sit.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::moves back the her quarters, with a few directions::

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Nods at the Captain Terra Patel:: CTP: Commander Pangborn here. Good to meet you. ::smiles::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Smiles and moves to sit in the preferred chair, moving very close to Sulek, rubbing against him::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
Pangborn: Yes.. very good to meet you too.. ::While looking at his pants::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Overseeing bridge operations, and assessing the replacement shifts performance::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Nods with a smile:: CTP: And I am Counselor Raythan, a pleasure to meet you.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
Raythan: ... My pleasure indeed... ::biting her lip::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::notices her attire for the first time and blushes::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
*FCO* Commander, could you check if the ship is harboring any snakes for the science labs, classrooms, or as personal pets... or whatever else you can think of.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Blinks and refrains from quirking his eyebrow. Moving to take a seat::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::nonplused, he sits to her right::

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Takes a seat across from her::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Patel: My XO, Commander Pangborn

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
ACTION: No sooner does Pangborn sit than he feels a bare foot running up his calf.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::notices her drawing attention to herself:: CMO: Your usual lounging attire?

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::folds her arms across her chest and blushes:: CEO: Well.. sometimes..

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
Sulek: Thank you for inviting me aboard Sulek, I can call you Sulek can't I?  Its always fun to mingle with new people.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*CEO*: Have already done so. There are 4 snakes registered aboard. Three are in SCI Lab. One is registered to an Ens. Scale. A white dwarf python.

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::smirks, and brushes his foot against captain Patel's foot as he withdraws it from it's place::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Patel: Please do.  I do not stand on formalities in such casual occasions.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
*FCO* Hmmm... perhaps we could have those departments or individuals check their "inventory" then... let me know if you find out where our missing snake is from.

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::tugs at the hem of her shorts, trying to get them to cover a wee bit more::

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::reaches his hand across the table to shake hands:: Patel: And you can call me Ben

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
CMO: Ahh... looks comfortable.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Frowns and runs her bare foot up the Counselor's leg::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Nearly jumps and bangs his knees::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Thud::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::keys the door to her quarters, and peers inside::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Patel:  Have you been with the cruise line long?

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::reddens a bit more:: CEO: Uh.. well, in some cases it is.  When lounging on a beach on the holodeck.. or when Mac turns the heat up too much then yeah, it's comfy

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Starts her fifth glass of wine::  Sulek: Four years this summer, I love working aboard the Cloud Sailor.. I have so much freedom.

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Refrains from wincing about his knees::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::looks inside, not wanting to intrude:: CMO: May I?

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Places her hand on Sulek's knee as her foot continues to rub the counselor's::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::nods, peeking in but not willing to actually go in there again::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Coughs slightly and glances at Captain Patel ... not wishing to be rude, but none-the-less feeling uncomfortable::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Smiles demurely at Raythan, letting her foot travel higher::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::steps inside, and begins to lift chairs, and inspect every corner, while keeping continuous scans for small reptilian life signs::

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::watches the councilor apparently squirming from something::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::turns to the mess officer:: MeO: You may begin to serve.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
Sulek: How long have you been Captain of this powerful ship?

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Gently acquires her foot and lowers it back down with a light smile to her::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::watches, still not stepping foot over the thresh hold::  CEO: Anything?  Check the couch.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Rubs the Captain's knee as she takes another drink::

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::returns, and hands his tricorder to the Morgan:: CMO: I already did, twice... as you can see, if there was something there, it isn't anymore.

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
CEO: Uh huh.. if you say so.. ::looks at the tricorder::   er... this is going to be all over the ship, isn't it?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Patel: I've been captain a little over two years

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
CMO: This?

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
Sulek: That's very interesting... is your wife aboard?

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Chokes a little on his Martini::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::waves her arm around the room, down her body to indicate her clothing:: CEO: This.  All of it.  Screaming.  Rodents.  Reptiles.  Running away.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::turns slightly as he finds most touch uncomfortable:: Patel: I am unmarried.  As a Deltan, I have taken the standard celibacy oath.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
Sulek: I see... ::Doesn't remove her hand::

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
Pangborn & Raythan: And where are your wives?

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Considers lying to her, but sees it would be pointless:: Patel: I am currently unmarried as well.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::smiles understandably:: CMO: I should make a report of the escaped animals, however I see no reason to make any mention of your chosen attire, or your reaction to... the situation.

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::smiles sheepishly, nodding:: CEO: Thanks.  I would greatly appreciate that.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
All: Well that is sad.. such handsome men as yourselves should have wives.

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
CMO: Think of it like patient confidentiality.  ::begins to move to the door::

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Patel: I'm Uh....::Takes a sip of his drink:: Available :: Wry grin::

CNS_Lt_Raythan says:
::Suddenly finds himself thinking about Lisa for some reason::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::laughs:: CEO: Right.  I'll be sure to remember this the next time your physical comes due..

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Patel: Where did you do your flight training?

CEO_LtCmdr_Everitt says:
::glances around the room once more:: CMO: Shall I leave you be now?

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
Pangborn: Was that a hint Mr. Pangborn?

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
Sulek: I trained on Trillius Prime.

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Mock shock:: Patel: Why of course not! ::buries his smile in the glass::

CMO_LtCmd_Morgan says:
::looks cautiously around the room:: CEO: If you say it's safe...  ::smiles again:: Thanks again, Lahn.

Host Captain_Terra_Patel says:
::Runs her foot right up to Pangborn's inner thigh and smiles::

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Patel: I just meant I was unmarried.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Patel: I am surprised that a captain of your training and experience would need an escort through an ion storm.
