Deep Space 102 - 10902.27

Federation Lampoon's Galactic Vacation

"The Swerve"

Host Gerry says:
Previously on the USS Scorpius:

The crew aboard the USS Scorpius had begun to rotate down to various locations on the planet for shore leave and various rest and relaxation activities. The Griswalds had transported down as well, though upgrades and repairs to their shuttle were still under way on the shuttle. They have gone off on their own for now. At the moment, people are on the planet or on the ship about their duties before rotating down for shore leave.

Let's join them in progress.

CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
@::Sitting on a small outcropping on the rock face, taking a rest. Thinks: Three hours and I haven't even reached the top yet.::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::sitting inside the Griswald’s shuttle after the last of the Engineering team has left for the end of their shift::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
@::Swallows water from her canteen, then reattaches the canteen to her belt. Stands and resumes the climb::

::goes through each item, one by one, to see what and where each repair was done, including the dilithium crystal that was replaced::
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
CSO: Work... We're parked. I guess I should head to the shuttle bay or something...
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
@::Notices that the oxygen is getting a little thin but keeps a steady pace, gripping with her hands and shoving her boot toes into the holes in the rock face::
Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  some rocks break loose under the CTO and cause her to stumble in her climb...

@::Regains stability, taking quick breaths as she regains her composure:: Self: I gotta be more careful.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
@<Y'try'gyn> ::nods:: CNS: Tirsy, mama, tirsy. ::takes the juice and slurps it, spilling nearly as much as he's drinking::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
*CO*: Aye Captain. Acknowledged. I'm down in the Shuttle Bay looking over the Griswald's shuttle. Call it obsessive curiosity Sir.
CSO_Ens_S`aumo says:
::sticks her tongue out:: FCO: Lucky
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
CSO: What've they got you doin'?

@<Y'try'gyn> ::pulls on the goats horn:: CNS: Momma...me? ::touches his own head::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
@::A small flock of birds fly overhead as Ryan is looking up. Next thing she knows she gets hit on the head by something whitish and sticky:: Self: Oh, crap! ::Begins laughing as she wipes the bird crap off of her forehead::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
@::joins her son:: Y'try'gyn: Yes, sweetheart, horns, but this is a goat, nothing like you. You can talk, it can't, at least not to make himself understood.

FCO: Sure after you help me with diagnostics.
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
::Smiles.:: CSO: Exactly. Lead on, sistah!

::enters the Science Labs:: FCO: Okay then. ::stops and puts a paw to her face in thought.:: I just need to run diagnostics on all the equipment.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<Scorpius> *CTO*: Everything is secure. Security teams have begun rotating down to the planet for shore leave.
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
Self: Uhm... CSO: Okay, what does that mean exactly?
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::scans with the tricorder do not show anything out of the ordinary:: Self: Nuts!!
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
@*Scorpius*: Acknowledged. Next check in, three hours. Ryan, out.

@::shakes head and smiles:: Y'try'gyn: No fits, okay? We'll go back to the ship.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
*FCO*: Ensign, I want to take the shuttle down and shake it down for the Griswalds. Thought you'd like a chance to log some time.
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
::enters the shuttle:: XO: Absolutely! What do you mean "shake it down" though?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
@::Clips the rope through the rings on her belt then slings the other coil of rope onto her shoulder before stepping off the edge of the cliff. Begins repelling down, slowly::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
@*Scorpius*: Counselor Rand to Scorpius, permission requested for two to return.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
FCO: Well, quite simply, without getting too far from the ship, or violating any rules around here, put this rig through its paces.
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
XO: Are you saying I get my own personal rollercoaster, sir?
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
FCO: Just don't break it in the process Ensign.
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
::Sits down in the pilot's seat.:: XO: Never. ::Begins pre-flight checks and the like.::

<Scorpius OPS> *CNS*: Permission granted, Commander, ready to transport on your request.
CSO_Ens_S`aumo says:
::hums to herself and moves down the to next shelf::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
FCO: Preflight’s already done..... Let's move out
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
@*Scorpius OPS*: We're ready to transport. ::holds her son's hand::

ACTION:  The CNS and her son are transported aboard the Scorpius...
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::takes Y'try'gyn to their quarters and tucks him into bed for his nap::

*<OPS>*: Acknowledged Commander, have a safe flight.
Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The CTO's rope slips and the piton comes unanchored...she lands on a shelf about 15-20 feet below her.  Her tibia and fibula snap...
