CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::steps off the lift a ways away from that which deposited Sin, steaming cup of coffee in one hand and for a change, only one PADD in his other::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Walks over to McDuggle and hands him the latest update::  CO:  This is the last.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::sees T'Lorn about to get up and, with a shake of his head, moves towards the command center::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CSO: Roger I will file them with the rest of the reports. Have a good time on shore leave.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO:  Will you also be taking some time off?
CIV_Savar says:
:: In the office afforded his large diplomatic quarters, Savar reads over new reports from the Klingon High Council ::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CSO: Yes I am meeting my wife a son here on the station.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO:  That is good to hear.  I will remain on call as needed.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::pauses to one side as their new captain and So’tsoh exchange words, and takes an idle pull from the cup... damn if he wasn't going to enjoy personally picking up another supply of the stuff, too bad he's one of the few still aboard who knows he keeps it around... oh, wait a minute... that's a good thing::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Looks at Donavin::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CSO: Roger. Just be sure you get some relaxation in as well.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO:  I have a few friends who are determined to see that so.
Host JonB says:
Action: The Comm. in the CIV's office flashes signally on a diplomatic channel, form the Starbase Federation Ambassador office.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::looks back at Sin, offers that casual wink, and waits for her to finish with the captain::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CSO: Good even you Vulcans need some time off.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Lightly shakes her head at both men and turns with a nod, heading for her quarters and one waiting son.::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::smirks slightly:: CO: I've been telling her *that* for years. ::grins::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Well maybe now she will listen. :: grins::
CIV_Savar says:
:: Glances off to his side, where the primary terminal sits, then turns his body to face it full on and activates the channel ::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Before the lift doors close she turns toward both men at their comment and lifts a brow.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Is there anything I can do for you?
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::steps forward as she turns to leave, and hands over the PADD:: CO: Departmental status update. Majority of personnel are on relief, with standard patrols and a reduced detachment on standby in the TIC if required.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Sending the lift to deck two, she is soon back in her quarters with rather impatient son.::  Sha:  Did you ask him?
Host Amb_Timmy says:
Action: On the view screen a human in ambassadorial clothes is on screen.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: Glances over the PADD:: CTO: How long have you been at tactical?
Host Amb_Timmy says:
@COM:CIV: Savar, it's good to see you back.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
<Sha> CSO:  Yes, and he agreed.

CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
CO: If you count the time I spent on Earth during the war... about four years, sir. That whole synod incident had me running strategic operations for a time.
CIV_Savar says:
:: Wonders silently at the oddities of Terrain euphemisms ::  COM: Amb: Is there a problem?
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
Sha:  Very well.  Then perhaps we should discover how long before he is ready to go.  :: she lifted a hand to stop his comment:: He is not part of my department but Lieutenant Arinoch.  We abide by their rules.
Host Amb_Timmy says:
@COM:CIV: Oh no, Ambassador.  I just wanted to congratulate you on a job well done with the Cardassians.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> ::finishes up with meeting with several of his division:: Team: Operating procedure from this point will be precisely as regulations dictate. As the humans would say... ::he pauses slightly:: the training wheels are off.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: It shows in your reports. You are very professional in your work and I am looking forward to working with you on the ship.
CIV_Savar says:
:: Inclines his head slightly ::  COM: Amb: It was adequate.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Activates her comm.::  *Toral*:  This is Commander So'tsoh.  Sha has informed me you will be joining us?
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
CO: Academy taught me well. Not to mention several superior officers who demanded nothing less than perfection. Or you'd think so anyway. ::smirks just slightly::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> ::turns away from his group before dismissing, long enough to activate his own badge:: *CSO*: Indeed, commander. I shall be with you shortly. There are one or two small details to finalize before then.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: I have found that experience teaches everyone a lot more and you certainly show what your experience has taught you.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*TO*:  We will meet you at the docking bay.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> *CSO*: Acknowledged.
Host Amb_Timmy says:
@COM:CIV: The Federation council, is looking forward to a full report. They are looking at what transpired as a first step to working with them.  Just keep in mind, Savar, whatever you say will dictate what the federation will do next. :: pauses:: it seems some one up high values your word a lot.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Gathering a few items, she turns to her son and nods for him to head for the door.::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::tilts his head a degree:: CO: Truth be known captain, there are more than a few experiences I wouldn't mind having back. ::he thinks, but doesn't verbally add, about a run-in with a certain no longer Starfleet officer and the, shall we say, issues that brought with her::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> ::closes the channel, and turns back to dismiss his people, before moving to his desk to finalize his duty report and sign off on his division's Shoreleave rotation::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: As soon as they step onto the lift and Sin orders it down to the docking ring, Sha starts to fill her in on his last session with Donavin and Toral.::

Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: We all would Lt. but I have kept you here long enough so enjoy your shore leave.
CIV_Savar says:
:: Steeples his fingers ::  COM: Amb: I will ensure that the report includes a full exploration of the events.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
CO: Aye sir. I'll just be a while longer onboard. Few departmental schedules still have yet to come in. If you're free this evening though, I've got a bottle of well-aged scotch on hand. Perfect for breaking in a new captain. ::flashes an almost devious wink::
Host Amb_Timmy says:
@COM:CIV: Good .  ::grinning:: Perhaps if you can forget your Vulcan tastes, you would be kind enough to join me in a drink later.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: turns the bridge over to the duty officer and turns to head for his ready room:: CTO: Only if you will are willing to help me with some blood wine that I have acquired over the years. :: Grins::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: She lifts a brow wryly to hear her son once again involved in things talking nonstop.::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> ::the last of his work completed, the tactical officer taps off his console, gets up from his desk, and steps into the TIC proper::
CIV_Savar says:
:: Furrows his brow ::  COM: Amb: Forget my Vulcan tastes?
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
CO: Blood wine... ::winces a little:: Last time I had that I was sore for a week. ::laughs a little:: But, it was worth it. Shoot me a time. ::grins::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: From the lift they head for the docking ring, pausing only long enough to check in with the duty officer before heading down the ramp.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Will do :: heads into the RR::
Host Amb_Timmy says:
@ ::laughs::  COM:CIV: Never mind.  Hope to see you soon Savar.  Timmy out.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::turns back to the bridge, stepping into the nearest lift and requesting security::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> ::moves through the double doors that block the TIC and brig area off from the rest of the ship, and out into the corridor, moving towards the bank of lifts near its end::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Surrounded by strangers, her son becomes quiet, his attention more focused on getting an overview of the place.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
::grabs a cup of coffee, sits behind the desk and files the last of the reports that have been given to him::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: A thought passed through her mind that he was perhaps spending too much time with the security staff.  And yet she knew he enjoyed that and it was the one place she never felt the need to worry.::
CIV_Savar says:
:: As the communications channel closes, Savar wonders when the ambassador's last psychological profile was performed ::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: She also trusted Donavin and Toral's judgment.::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::the lift stops on the VIP deck, and the door swings open, showing Donavin on one side and Toral on the other... both exchange nods, and a few words, before passing by in their own opposite direction, and the latter requesting the docking ring::
Host Amb_Timmy says:
<OPS Radar>  *CO*: There is a com for you form the station Commander.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*OPS*: Route it in here please.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> ::steps off the lift a moment later, and moves towards the airlock, exchanging words with the officer of the deck before passing through::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: What had once been a game, was now more a habit as Sha pointed out to her the various entry ways into the room... and his comment on how hard it would be to defend such an area.::
Host Cmdr_Quinn says:
Action: The CO's view screen signals it is ready.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: opens the view screen on his desk::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::moves into the TIC, and directly through to his office where he secures the door, and engages privacy mode::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Her focus on the ships docking ring, she lifts a hand slightly to catch Toral's attention.::
Host Cmdr_Quinn says:
Action; The Cmdr appears on the screen.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
COM: Cmdr: What can I do for you today?
Host Cmdr_Quinn says:
@COM:CO: Welcome back Captain. I hope your journey went uneventful?
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> ::moves through the airlock in the middle of one of Sha's explanations, and very nearly manages a smile, before motioning with one hand to the room he's explaining:: Sha: Not always are the defenses quite so obvious. You'll learn in time.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::moves to recycle his cup, and sits himself behind the desk, before ordering the computer to open his personal file::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
COM: Quinn: Yes it went very uneventful I even had time to catch up on paper work.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::taking in a deep breath, he starts into something he only now is reminded he hadn't been doing a lot of recently, what with the investigation and all... dictating a letter to his wife::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@ TO:  I do not quite know what you and Sha had in mind or if you did.
Host Cmdr_Quinn says:
@COM:CO: Good.  ::pauses:: but... I do have something for you. I know you just returned and  has been given Shoreleave. There is something that has come up, and you the only ship docked at the moment available. It's not orders, but would be greatly look at by the federation.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
COM: Quinn: And what would that be Cmdr?
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
<Sha> :: listens close to what Toral has to say.::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> @::lifts up one shoulder, slightly:: CSO: The apparent impossibility of convincing you to leave Sharikahr on a temporary basis without orders has, admittedly, consumed much of my attention. However, I believe there just may be something you will find of interest.

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@ :: Lifts her brow in curiosity::  TO: I was not aware my aversion to shore leave was a well known fact.
Host Cmdr_Quinn says:
@COM:CO: The Ferengi alliance has asked us for help. It seems the mining operations in the Clarus system ha suffered some major drawbacks and has sent for resupply and new equipment. The cargo vessel heading there is going to be arriving here in 26 hours. And they have asked if we could send a ship with the supplies to reach the mines faster the cargo ships.
Host Cmdr_Quinn says:
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@ :: Slowly they make their way out of the reception room::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::sits back in his chair, having filled Millicent in on most of the details regarding the case they'd wrapped up just a couple weeks ago:: It's definitely been a roller coaster since you left. Savar's given up his command... back to being the resident diplomat I suppose. And our new commander's got something going for him.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> @CSO: It's not. ::behind her as she moves forward, he gives Sha a knowing look::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@ :: Catching the exchange she says nothing and debates if she should even address the situation later with her son.::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@ TO:  What is our direction?
CIV_Savar says:
:: Having completed his report from the ambassador to Qo'noS, he files it away for later analysis, along with an intelligence report on the Gorn ::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::continues after a moment's consideration:: We're supposed to be on Shoreleave. Be surprised if I can even remember what that's actually like.... ::he smirks just a little, and allows a slight laugh:: an incident-free Shoreleave, that is. Not quite like the norm around here. ::he snorts a little:: And no bloody run-ins with station security.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
COM: Quinn: I believe that we can handle that. We will be ready to transfer the cargo when the Ferengi ship arrives then.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> @::just moves to step past Sin, giving her a look that might, almost, be considered somewhat on the warm side, and moves to lead the two down one of several corridors::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@:: Looks curiously at him but says nothing, letting him lead the way and keep his surprise.::
Host Cmdr_Quinn says:
@COM:CO: Great. I am sure the Ferengi alliance will be in our debt for this, and I owe you one captain.  I'll have the OPS call you when they arrive and the cargo transferred to your command.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> @::calls for a lift, and steps in, requesting one of the lower levels::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
COM: Quinn: Very well I will inform the crew that their Shoreleave will be cut a little short then. McDuggle out.
Host Cmdr_Quinn says:
Action: the view screen goes off.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@:: The pair of them step through the doors, Sin still unable to figure out what he had in mind.::

CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::he gets up from his desk, and moves to the replicator, still addressing the computer:: We still don't have a new first officer, though. Although if Sin keeps this up it might just end up being her, the way Starfleet’s logic works nowadays.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*OPS*: Crewman inform the crew that everyone is to return to the ship in 22 hours.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> @::casually, casts a brief glance between mother and son as the lift progresses, but remains silent for the moment as they reach their destination and it deposits them in one of the less frequented sections of the station::
Host Cmdr_Quinn says:
<OPS radar>  *CO* Aye Sir.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: gets up and heads for the Airlock to meet his wife and son::
Host Cmdr_Quinn says:
<OPS Radar>   *All Crewman* Please be advised,  there is only 22 hours left on Shoreleave. Per Captain McDuggle.  22 hours all crew report back.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@:: A phrase from her grandfather, 'curiosity killed the cat' flickered through her mind.  Though in this case, she had no concern that Toral would lead either of them into something dangerous.::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::his expression softens slightly, and he manually orders up coffee, strong and black:: Hasn't quite been the same around here all in all since you left. The doctors tell me both kids are doing wonderful, though, so I guess that's something. ::he returns to his desk, and pauses to take an absent sip::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
@:: Exits the airlock and sees his wife and son standing near a pile of luggage::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> @::makes a right turn down one corridor, and a left down a slightly wider one, before coming to a fairly thick door... he lifts a hand, touches a control, and watches it open up into what can only be described as a picture from an old movie... for as far as one can see out, nature all but screamed its greeting::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@:: Peering around Toral into the room, she lifts a brow curiously.  A holosuite was definitely not one of the possibilities she had considered.  She turned her eyes upward to his.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
@:: Walks over and picks up his son and gives his wife a kiss:: Sheri: I will have someone take our luggage to our quarters while we have some lunch and pick up a few things before we leave. :: nods to the Guard to have him get some one to take care of the luggage::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::continues to fill his wife, or rather the letter addressed to his wife, in on the overall goings on... including a suspicion or two regarding a certain science officer and a member of his department::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> @::just lifts a hand, to motion both of them in:: CSO: You allowed me to experience a part of your life. Now I will show you part of mine. You may discover something of a commonality.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
@<Sheri> CO: So I take it that we don't have much time till we leave then?
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::makes a note to edit out the announcement re: Shoreleave before sending, even as he continues to catch her up on things she'd know if she could still be around::

Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
@Sheri: No just under 24 hours.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@ :: She blinked for a moment having forgotten her unexpected performance for him.  Nodding she steps inside followed by Sha.::.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
@:: heads off with his wife towards the station's shops::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> @::steps in behind the two, and watches the door close, before indicating with a gesture just over a small hill, to where a cabin that looks to not contain more than 3 rooms is situated::
Host Cmdr_Quinn says:
Action; The CO's family's belongings are transported to his quarters.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@ :: She suddenly stops, her memory flashing back to the last time she had been taken to a cabin and her son had been kidnapped.::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_LT_Toral> @::raises an eyebrow as Sin stops, and he studies her a moment:: CSO: Is something troubling you, commander?
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@ :: Takes a deep breath and looks up at him::
