21:01 | CaptMcCloud | Good evening, Crew. I hope you've had a good week. |
21:02 | ... | Have you all had a chance to read the brief and do we have any questions? |
21:02 | Cdr_Hart | Yes and no, Skipper. |

21:02 | Lt_Banning | y/n, Sir. |
21:04 | Lt_Shadow | y/n sir |
21:05 | CaptMcCloud | Excellent. Let's... |

21:05 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: sitting in his chair on the bridge:: |
21:06 | Lt_Shadow | (brb Diamond needs out) |
21:06 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO > :: also on the bridge, in the XO's seat:: |
21:06 | Lt_Andrews | TAC > :: at t he tactical console:: |
21:06 | Lt_Banning | SCI > :: at the science console::
|
21:08 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ HELM ] Take us out of orbit and back out to the shipping lane, Ensign. |
21:08 | EnsToine: | HELM >{ CO ] Aye, Sir. :: taps the console, taking the Eagle out of orbit:: |
21:09 | LtCdrWren: | OPS > :: checks on the status of the Bolian freighter:: |
21:09 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ CO ] So, how was their operations center? |
21:10 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ A-XO ] Honestly, nothing remarkable. They did have a situation table which could bring up a holographic display of the empire. |
21:11 | Lt_Shadow | (back)CMO>;; checking over everything in sickbay in case it is needed for the Bolian freighter and also reviewing the Bolian Anatomy in case the study is needed;; |
21:12 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ CO ] Something like that could be useful. |
21:13 | | CNS > :: strolls into sickbay:: |
21:14 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ A-XO ] :: nods:: It was nice, they could also zero in on certain sectors. |
21:15 Lt_Shadow CMO>::looks up from the Computer screen;; howdy Dane |
21:16 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ CO ] And, did they show you anything about their new ship? |
21:17 | EnsNguyen: | CNS >[ CMO ] :: smiles:: Good morning, Shadow. How did your evening with the emperor go? |
21:17 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: gives a smile to Hart:: [ A-XO ] And what do YOU know about the new ship? |
21:18 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ CO ] Just some idel chit-chat I caught among some of hte Spaculaan officers. |
21:19 | Lt_Andrews | TAC > :: checks the space lane as far as his tactical sensors will reach:: |
21:19 | Lt_Shadow | CMO> [CNS] mostly pretty good but I had the strongest idea he was trying to pick me up |
21:20 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ A-XO ] :: smiles again:: The admiral did show us the new ship. She looks like a larger version of their current ships, more likely the size of a Galaxy-class starship. |
21:22 | EnsNguyen: | CNS >[ CMO ] :: sly smile:: We ALL had that notion, Doc. I think he was really... smitten with you. |
21:22 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ CO ] From what I heard, they intend to launch it within the month. |
21:23 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>[CNS]He seemed to be somewhat surprised that I had been married twice befure |
21:23 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ A-XO ] :: nods:: That is what the admiral said as well. It will be interesting to see it as they "roll her out of the showroom." |
21:23 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO > :: chuckles:: |
21:24 | EnsNguyen: | CNS >[ CMO ] Surprised, or disappointed? |
21:25 | CaptMcCloud | Co >[ A-XO ] Indeed it will. |
21:25 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>[CNS] maybe some of both? other than NightWing, my twin sister, there is only my son, Melakyte, who is studying with her |
21:26 | EnsToine: | HELM >[ CO ] We're in the shipping lane, Captain. Making way to the rendezvous point. |
21:27 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ HELM ] Acknowledged, Ensign. :: makes a note in his console:: |
21:28 | EnsNguyen: | CNS >[ CMO ] Might I ask why you accepted his invitation? I mean, with your empathic abilities, you had to know he was hitting on you. |
21:29 | LtCdrWren: | OPS >[ CO ] According tot heir last bouy check, Captain, the freighter is on course and on time. They should be entering Spaculaan space about now. |
21:30 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ OPS ] Acknowledged, Commander. Keep a listen for their transponder. |
21:30 | Lt_Shadow | CMO> {CNS} two lonely people wanting to find a moment in some small corner of the galaxy that our lives had meaning for more than just being whatever our professions forced on us |
21:31 | EnsNguyen: | CNS >[ CMO ] Very profound and... poetic, Shadow. |
21:32 | Lt_Banning | SCI > :: furrows his brows as his long-range sensors pick up something:: [ CO ] Captain, I believe I have a starship on course for the shipping lane as well. |
21:32 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>{CNS} surely you know how much even a momentary friendship can bolster the injured psyche when we spend too much time trying to tend to the galaxy's ills and have to leave our own in a dark corner to fester till we can't ignore them any more |
21:33 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ SCI ] Can you identify it? |
21:35 | EnsNguyen: | CNS >[ CMO ] Indeed I do. How difficult would it have been for you to ... shut him down, if the emperor did make advances, or would y ou have? And, If I'm being too bold here, just tell me to mind my own business. |
21:37 | Lt_Banning | SCI > :: tapping on the console to refine the beam:: [ CO ] It looks like a Spaculaan ship.... no. It's identifying as a Frinkta ship, Sir. One of the original Spaculaan fleet that broke off when the empire first broke up. |
21:38 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: frowns:: [ HELM ] Set an intercept course, Ensign Toine. [ OPS ] Commander Wren, go to yellow alert. |
21:38 | EnsToine: | HELM >[ CO ] Aye, Sir. :: sets the intercept course:: |

21:40 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>:;Smiles::>{CNS} my people have a term for people who share physical love with those of their same gender, It's called Shay'a'chern, one whose love is like themselves. I have been known back in the Vale to share such at times though it is not the be all and end all for me |
21:41 | EnsNguyen: | CNS > :: sees the yellow alert light flashing:: Oops! Looks like trouble brewing. |
21:41 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>;;looks at the YA;; sounds like it's time to go back to work, my friend |
21:42 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: watches the stars streak by as they move into position:: |
21:42 | LtCdrWren: | OPS >[ CO ] Sir, the Frinkta ship is hailing us. |
21:43 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>;; gets Sickbay ready and the triage teams in place in case they're needed;; |
21:43 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: raises a brow:: [ OPS ] On screen. |
21:43 | LtCdrWren: | OPS > :: transfers the hail:: |
21:45 | Frinkta: | @ F-CO >+[ CO ]+ Captain, I am Bakrat, High of the Frinkta. Might I come aboard your ship to meet with you? |
21:45 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ F-CO ]+ Greeting High Bakrat. I would be glad to receive you. |
21:46 | Bakrat: | @ F-CO >+[ CO ]+ Excellent. We shall see you shortly. Bakrat out. |
21:47 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: Looks to Hart as the screen reverts to the streaking stars:: |
21:47 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ CO ] Another state dinner? |
21:48 | Lt_Andrews | TAC > :: smirks, and keeps an eye on his sensors as the Frinkta ship comes within range:: |
21:49 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ A-XO ] ::gives a slight shrug:: In this new and "improved" Spaculaan Empire... Who knows. Have briefing room 2 prepped. |
21:49 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ CO ] ::nods:: Aye, Sir. :: taps is console to make the preparations:: |
21:51 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ CMO ]+ Bridge to SickBay. Dr. Shadow. I would like you to report to Briefing room 2. |

21:52 | Lt_Andrews | TAC > :: scans the Frinkta ship, seeing it is a littel battered and worn, but does not lose his edge:: |
