7[9:07] [DOIC] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Captain's Log, Stardate 96267.90. We have been working our way through the Erbus Expanse along the safest route that has been dubbed by members of the crew as the Styx Passage. Apparently based on...

11[9:11] [DOIC] T'Pang@Demoncherub: Arandak Tirrhe has advised caution. Which seems a wise precaution, but I wonder if that even need be said after what we have experienced here so far. He is prparing to undergo an experimental medical

14
15[9:14] [DOIC] T'Pang@Demoncherub: access the hidden Scyrthi base perhaps without having to fight our way in. I am certainly open to suggestions at this point. End Log."

17[9:15] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tamin] *The Bajoran pilot looked bored at her station.*
18
19[9:15] [DOIC2] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she puts the log recorder away with the rest of her toys and stand up and straightens her uniform--
20
21[9:15] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *monitored the tactical sensores*
22
23[9:15] [DOIC2] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she heads for the bridge.--
24
25[9:15] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Keeps his sensors running their sensory things, having them patched into helm's console so she doesn't crash into anything.*
26
27[9:16] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: *stands relaxed with a hand on the railing before her*
28
29[9:16] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Captain," *she nodded.*
30
31[9:16] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she stesp out onto the bridge--
32
33[9:16] [DOIC6] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys] "Come on you three, hurry up! Teir, you need to adjust your garter belt or something?"
34
35[9:16] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -nods= Captain....steady on course and heading
36
37[9:16] [DOIC6] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Teir] "...I do not wear a garter belt, sir."
38
39[9:16] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "How long until we reach the disgnated coordinates?"
40
41[9:17] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Helm?
42
43[9:17] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dr Delancey crosschecks the scrythi medical data, again, running simulation to find potential errors or surprises.*
44
45[9:17] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: *morely nods at the captain*
46
47[9:17] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tamin] "At this slow... slow... SLOW speed we're stuck on, approximately fifty minutes or so."
48
49[9:17] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --glances at the Helm person.--
50
51[9:17] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *checks the diagnostics on the tactical data*
52
53[9:17] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods toward helm in acknowledgement.--
54
55[9:17] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Quit complaining, Fenna, at least you're back on helm instead of stuck below with Teeth."
56
57[9:17] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles- You will endure just fine Ensign
58
59[9:17] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li is hunked down in main engineering.*
60
61[9:18] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "We don't have the Talaxian around, which is an added bonus."
62
63[9:18] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "I going to visit Arandak Tirrhe, he apparently has requested to speak withme before we arrive at our desitination."
64
65[9:19] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: T'Ghor...sensor status...how are we look...-stops- You Mean Lieutenant Commander Eldax Mister T'Ghor?
66
67[9:19] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -her tone drops to an icy one-
68
69[9:19] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Yes, Commander." *He checks his sensors to give Valkriss the update.*
70
71[9:19] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: See that you refer to him as such...am I understood?'
72
73[9:19] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *cracks his neck*
74
75[9:20] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she looks at Vaylith.-- "Lieutenant Vaylith I would like you to join me."
76
77[9:20] [DOIC6] Istrin@the5of435: *Istrin glanced Teir over momentarily before following along* ...Would suit him nicely?
78
79[9:20] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Understood...
80
81[9:20] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: zunderstood Captain..give him my best
82
83[9:20] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -offers T'Ghor a pleasant...sweet smile- Good...see that you do
84
85[9:20] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she heads for the lift, holding it for Vaylith.--
86
87[9:21] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Joins T'pang in the lift* "Understood, ma'am."
88
89[9:21] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Holodeck one..."
90
91[9:21] [DOIC6] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Ettore] "He probably doesn't even know what one is."
92
93[9:21] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "There is not so much important on the sensors, apart from the pocket the Scyrthi should be in far, far ahead, in about... fifty minutes, as helm said."
94
95[9:21] [DOIC6] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Teir] "...Of course I do, don't be ridiculous."
96
97[9:22] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -nods- So good...no surprises...how unlike our usual luck
98
99[9:22] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Sohn] "How are we looking, Doctor?"
100
101[9:22] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: =^= XO toCMO
102
103[9:23] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Computer, verify these findings. There has to be a way we can get this percentage up. Simulate with a stabilizing field to prevent telomere degradation during the process."
104
105[9:23] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: *looks at Valkriss with a raised eyebrow*
106
107[9:23] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "The river may be calm, but the lake's gonna be something else completely."
108
109[9:23] [DOIC6] Istrin@the5of435: *he smirked* He'd turn heads I bet.
110
111[9:23] [DOIC3] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --enters the place where the leppers are being contained.--
112
113[9:23] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Sorry Lt, still looking much better for the next generation than the current I'm afraid. Doable, but we could lose as much as a third."
114
115[9:23] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The computer gave a chime to indicate it was crunching numbers.*
116
117[9:23] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The lepers were here.*
118
119[9:24] [DOIC3] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Follows hte captian on firm exact steps, holding her PADD in her hand*
120
121[9:24] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: =^= Valkriss to Dr Delancy
122
123[9:24] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --switches to 4 so she can interact with the doctor.--
124
125[9:25] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: -^- Delancey here *she says with a sigh*
126
127[9:25] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --approaches the doctor's office, gives her a moment to take her call.--
128
129[9:25] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Zohle] "I don't know, I think season four kind of fell short."
130
131[9:26] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Brandt] "Only because you never read the holonovels, then you would understand it all!"
132
133[9:27] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dr Delancey visually acknowledges the captain, and gestures for her to enter.*
134
135[9:28] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] *She glanced over at Valkriss.*
136
137[9:28] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *silently follows the captain, impassively observing something*
138
139[9:29] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: =^= -chuckles- I was going to tell you that the Captain is on her way down to see Arandak Tirrhe and you..but i am sure you are already aware of this by now
140
141[9:29] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *runs anther combat simulation on the tertiary banks*
142
143[9:29] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: What?
144
145[9:29] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: -^- Thank you Commander. I appreciate the heads up.
146
147[9:29] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Sulok] "I believe they are discussing a holoprogram."
148
149[9:30] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: =^= Oh yes..it is all about that first officer timing..you are welcome Doctor..bridge out
150
151[9:30] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Now then, Captain, I did you have any questions before we go to the holodeck to see your friend?"
152
153[9:30] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: ((Captain, did you))
154
155[9:30] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks and shakes her head- On a roll tonight Valk..on a roll
156
157[9:31] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "No questions. I just wanted to check in with you first . As I am unfamiliar with any isolations protocols that may be in effect."
158
159[9:31] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Get it all out now, and before we get there, I say," *she smirked.*
160
161[9:31] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -nods- Oh yes...better to trip all over myself now..then where we re headed
162
163[9:32] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: "Sounds like an excelent plan to me"
164
165[9:32] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "That is why we are using the holodeck. it enables a rapidly adjustable atmosphere. Dr McCoy can adjust on the fly a lot faster than any organic physician could.
166
167[9:32] [DOIC6] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Ettore] "He would make a pretty Andorian girl, actually."
168
169[9:32] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Just been that kind of watch for me today Niki...
170
171[9:32] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "That is most logical."
172
173[9:32] [DOIC6] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Teir] "Stop trying to get a rise out of me."
174
175[9:32] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Been that kinda watch for everyone, with how slow it is."
176
177[9:32] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he checks his chrono readout*
178
179[9:33] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Which one?
180
181[9:33] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: "They come every now and again, what kinda alert level do you want the badgers on?"
182
183[9:33] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "McCoy is aware you are coming.. would you like a moment alone with our patient?"
184
185[9:33] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Well, you do know you have other stuff you could be doing right now than scanning an unscannable corridor, right?"
186
187[9:33] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: True...but then you didnt accidently drop a leather bound copy of 'Death on the Nile' ontop of your sleeping girlfriend forehead as you were getting out of bed this morning-smirks-
188
189[9:34] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, I am sure she did not mind. She has a thick skull."
190
191[9:34] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Get them at Ready One and prepped for QRF duty Niki
192
193[9:34] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "...T'Ghor..."
194
195[9:34] [DOIC6] Istrin@the5of435: It's better than picking on the new guy?
196
197[9:34] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks- I barely got to the bathroom alive
198
199[9:34] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Tirrhe did not say it was a private converation. The message seemed ot indicate he has a suggestion on how we could make our way into the Scrthi base without fighting our way in."
200
201[9:34] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "It is a compliment, Commander?" *Looks to Gayle.*
202
203[9:34] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Well, it is a compliment to a klingon."
204
205[9:34] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: "I would need a girlfriend for that to be able to happen" *nods her head* "Aye COmmander"
206
207[9:34] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] *She narrowed her eyes.*
208
209[9:35] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *cracks his neck*
210
211[9:35] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles- He is fine this time....I understood what he meant
212
213[9:35] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *runs another simulation*
214
215[9:35] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "The isolation field should adjust well to your presence. Just do not attempt to make physical contact and there should be no issue."
216
217[9:36] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "understood doctor. We will follow the designated protocols."
218
219[9:36] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she turns to leave.--
220
221[9:36] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "
222
223[9:36] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles to Niki- Well if you do find one...that is one morning activiy i recommend you do no tpartake in
224
225[9:37] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Zohle] "The Walking Borg, it's about a bunch of survivors on a world infested by the Collective."
226
227[9:37] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Offers the doctor a single firm nods then sharply turns on her heel and departs, moving out of the way of the captain to then follow her again as she passed*
228
229[9:37] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Illya is /not/ a morning person
230
231[9:37] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Computer, transfer this station to holodeck research station" *she makes to follow them*
232
233[9:37] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: I don't think you would last very long on such a planet.
234
235[9:37] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Beep.*
236
237[9:37] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: =^= "Momma badger to badger den, ready one, prepped for QRF"
238
239[9:38] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Meylar] =/\= "We're still not going to call you Momma, ma'am. We're prepping."
240
241[9:38] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: *smirks at Valkriss* "A fine recomendation, I think I will take it to heart"
242
243[9:38] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles-
244
245[9:39] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Perhaps then meditations on a crimson shadow might prove a better wakeup call, if only to see her to proper fantasy fullfilment from the slight.
246
247[9:39] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: =^= "One of you come up with a better suggestion then"
248
249[9:39] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Marcus...status on your readiness sims?
250
251[9:39] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Better Ilya then the women I tend to choose... I am pretty sure a leatherbound book would crush them."
252
253[9:39] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she heads to the holodeck with Vay and Dali in tow.--
254
255[9:39] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles- You need to up your criteria then T'Ghor
256
257[9:39] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: We stand at 1261 possible variations. Due to the uncertainties success rates in in the 30 percent.
258
259[9:39] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: "pick big and strong"
260
261[9:40] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -shakes her head- Unexceptable that 30 percitile
262
263[9:40] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "It is about the mentality more than the body, commander."
264
265[9:40] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *McCoy and Sohn were working there, with Arandak Tirrhe in his isolation chamber.*
266
267[9:40] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks- Uh huh
268
269[9:40] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "What?"
270
271[9:40] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Unfortunately without more knowledge of the battlespace there will always be something we stand unprepared for. I am also accounting for sensor failure due to previous engagements.
272
273[9:40] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -eyes him- You think there is not one with both?
274
275[9:41] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --as they enter the holodeck and go through the isolation fields and such.-- "Doctor, how is he?"
276
277[9:41] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Of course. But for me, the mentality takes priority. And there are some smaller ones with... quite the spirit."
278
279[9:41] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Keep em running Marcus...keep em running
280
281[9:41] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Sohn] "That's what I'm saying, it gets so unrealistic by the fourth season."
282
283[9:41] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I shall do so.
284
285[9:41] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Brandt] "Like half of it was dream sequences, of course it's unrealistic!"
286
287[9:41] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks to T'Ghor- Sure....settle if you wish
288
289[9:41] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Submits to the nessesary procedues as she follows the captain*
290
291[9:42] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Settling? I am quite sure Ilya is not too big and strong." *Grins.*
292
293[9:42] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "So you are throwing rocks in a glass house.
294
295[9:42] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [McCoy] "All things considered, he's in good health for a member of his species in its current state."
296
297[9:42] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *returns to the sims*
298
299[9:42] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -laughs- You think not eh?
300
301[9:42] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods to McCoy.-- "May i approach?"
302
303[9:42] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Tell me such after you try and repeat the death on the nile scenario
304
305[9:42] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, she probably has that cardassian strength, but I doubt she can match up to you all that well."
306
307[9:43] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "No, thanks, I doubt either me or Ilya plan on waking up in the same bed."
308
309[9:43] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Good....I would hate to have to kill you then
310
311[9:43] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: A fight worthy of song, for thirty seconds.
312
313[9:44] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he mumbles*
314
315[9:44] [DOIC6] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Rhys] "That's enough now. Ettore, I want you on holodeck one for Tree-hey or whatever his name is. Teir, you're on VIP duty with Captain Du'manil. Vaax, head to engineering."
316
317[9:44] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Yea, no."
318
319[9:44] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: "There are more ways to fight then brute force, Commander should I go get my heavy brute force ass kicking armor?"
320
321[9:44] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "You'd have to fight over Ilya with who gets to do it first."
322
323[9:44] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: (Fight with Ilya over*)
324
325[9:44] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Yes Badger Momma..go suit up and head back up here
326
327[9:44] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [McCoy] "He's in his isolation chamber, just talk loudly."
328
329[9:44] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Dream sequences? That is a lazy way to write a story.
330
331[9:45] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Zohle] "I know, it's so boring when the scenes have no consequences..."
332
333[9:45] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: "Aye commander"
334
335[9:45] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Brandt] "They have psychological impacts!"
336
337[9:45] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "understood doctor." --she approaches the isolation chamber-- "Arandak, this is captain T'Pang I was infomred you wish to speak with me."
338
339[9:46] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: *heads into the lift and says her floor number*
340
341[9:46] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] *The suitless Scyrthi wheezed slightly as he went to crank the biobed to help him sit up.* "Captain T'Pang..."
342
343[9:47] [DOIC6] Istrin@the5of435: Yes sir, on my way sir. *he went to get his gear*
344
345[9:47] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Stands dispassionate slightly behind and to the side of the captain, holding her PADD behind her back as she emptily observes the sad being*
346
347[9:47] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Yes, I can hear you. How are you holding up?"
348
349[9:47] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *checks the weapon systems again*
350
351[9:47] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "I am... doing well, considering. We... will be there soon.. yes?"
352
353[9:48] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *His skinny, bare chest heaved with every word forced from his mangled beak.*
354
355[9:48] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "yes, at our current speed, just under and hour."
356
357[9:49] [DOIC5] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: *walks into Delta Country* "we all ready for what is coming?" *walks over and starts to get in her armor, along with getting her BAG(Big Ass Gun)*
358
359[9:49] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "When we... do... their ships will attack... of this I'm certain. But... there is a way... to get them to let us parlay with them... if they believe I have taken your ship... as my own."
360
361[9:49] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: It's way to write away actual plot.
362
363[9:49] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tamin]
364
365[9:50] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tamin] "Fifteen minutes out, hope everyone's got their big girl panties on."
366
367[9:50] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "What, you don't know you have to go commando into a fight?"
368
369[9:50] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "I would be difficult to pull off such a deception with you in the condition you are in now."
370
371[9:51] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Captain.. if I may?"
372
373[9:51] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: That stands a good way to see one seperated for dearest apendage T'ghor. Unless lacking in gifts of priapus.
374
375[9:52] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Steady as she goes helm...
376
377[9:52] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she looks a the doc-- "Go ahead doctor."
378
379[9:52] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "It is still something that has happened..."
380
381[9:53] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "There is no reason that the holodeck could not present a simulation of a healthy version. It could be programed to show for a transmission, anything desired. If they were to scan, they would find >
382
383[9:53] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -laughs- Oh i am sure of this
384
385[9:53] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: all the scyrthi life signs here in this room. Why could it not be a secondary bridge?"
386
387[9:53] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "On this very bridge, commander.'
388
389[9:54] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "that is a good point doctor. They are unlikely to be familiar with this ship's layout anyway."
390
391[9:54] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "I have... a less... elaborate idea, that would work more effectively. And 'believe' may have been a poor choice of words. Even if they do not buy it, if I say it custom will force them...
392
393[9:54] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: *Istrin entered engineering and took his post like an eager beaver*
394
395[9:55] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: to acknowledge my ship sovereignty. Even as a rebel, if I come to the table to parlay with a Federation ship, they would be forced to listen."
396
397[9:55] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Oh I was...-stops herself and shakes her head- Never mind...and why I am not surprised
398
399[9:56] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *checks the weapons and shields*
400
401[9:56] [DOIC5] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: *cracks her neck a couple times* "Just be ready when we are needed"* takes her leave and heads back to the bridge*
402
403[9:56] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Still I would feel more comfortable putting on a more convincing show. But, I concerned you are still in no condition to parlay with anyone at the moment."
404
405[9:56] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Then it would seem concern was answered by practical example.
406
407[9:56] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Oh, I am pretty sure you even know who I ended teaming up with."
408
409[9:57] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "No... I am in the -perfect- condition. If I come to them undergoing the genetic treatments, I will be a force they cannot and will not ignore."
410
411[9:57] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -looks over to Marcus at that with a smal smirk-
412
413[9:58] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Zohle] "I think it was just filler till the next season when they got their main character back..."
414
415[9:58] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: *returns to the bridge walking back up to the railing* "Commander, armored up and ready with my BAG"
416
417[9:58] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tamin] "Hey, didn't you drop a sword through your foot that time, Commander?"
418
419[9:59] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Inquiry." *Looks to the captain*
420
421[9:59] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Chuckles.*
422
423[9:59] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "No, that was the time T'Pang shot herself in the foot, remember?"
424
425[9:59] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she looks at Vay--
426
427[9:59] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Perhaps I should retrieve armor *to nkiru* To make spectacle and intimidate surrender.
428
429[10:00] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Yes... there I was, ass-naked in the turbolift with Ilya and the captain, clutching a carbine I'd never seen before, when we get flashed, and the captain shoots herself..."
430
431[10:00] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "Yes?"
432
433[10:00] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Explain main objectives of decieving them. It is my assessment they will not agree to stand down and surrender."
434
435[10:00] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "It's a hell of a story for the future generations."
436
437[10:00] [DOIC1] Nkiru Jelani@awendra: "The Captain just tried to get out of being drafted"
438
439[10:00] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Hello?
440
441[10:01] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "I don't want them to surrender, I want them to listen to us. We have information. Hessok Vridi, the genetic therapy, I just need them to LISTEN and maybe we can end this without anyone...
442
443[10:01] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: dying today."
444
445[10:01] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -nods to Niki-
446
447[10:01] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Why did you neglect to see cock to cover if you had time to arm yourself?
448
449[10:02] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she looks at Vaylith.-- "Yes, I think the point is to get them to talk first, so he can infomr them of the existence of the proceedure.His logic seems sound to me."
450
451[10:02] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Understood. If such fails. They will have had significant time to gain tactically supperior possitions."
452
453[10:02] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "We were on a tight clock. I had grabbed the carbine off the ground, shot at our attackers, and myself, the captain, and Ilya headed up to retake the bridge. Covering ourselves up was not top priority
454
455[10:02] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "We tell them that we have the procedure and every man, woman and child will be lining up begging for it."
456
457[10:02] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: warrior of Science...Updated ETA helm?
458
459[10:02] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "I must advise, even the most resent simulations, this proceedure will be roughly a 1 in 3 chance of your death. It's much better for embryonic samples, but... this is not perfect."
460
461[10:02] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "True, but they already have a tactically superior position."
462
463[10:03] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *nods* Very Gaulish.
464
465[10:03] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: Oh hi? I'm Ensign Vaax, security. I'll stay out of your way.. *ghe smiled*
466
467[10:03] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he checks the sims again*
468
469[10:03] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "The only other solution I could see is to get what scans you can and retreat to meet up with your people for a full attack."
470
471[10:03] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Too be honest it would be an easier sell if the procedure had already been completed and we had successful results to show."
472
473[10:04] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Understood."
474
475[10:04] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she looks at Dali-- "I am not trying to hurry you doctor. Just stating a fact."
476
477[10:04] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Commander, I suggest we engage cestus protocol. Given the sensor disruptions of the passage we may wish a more indirect approach.
478
479[10:04] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li stares at his forehead for a moment before nodding.* Right, I'm Lieutenant Zorin Li, chief of engineering.,
480
481[10:04] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: When we enter battle.
482
483[10:04] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "It is your call, Captain, but I am willing to do what's necessary."
484
485[10:04] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -nods- I agree...see to it Marcus
486
487[10:05] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *She nods to the captain, giving non-verbal notice that she understand.*
488
489[10:05] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Like I said your logic is sound and our only other option here would be a full assault. And, that would result in mak lost lives."
490
491[10:06] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: *many
492
493[10:06] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *nods*
494
495[10:06] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: Nice to meet you.. Is there something wrong? *he touched his forehead*
496
497[10:06] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "We currently hold contact with USS Engima. It would take them twenty three hours to relieve us, ma'am."
498
499[10:07] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li shakes his head.* Nope, everything's fine. Let us know if there's anything you need.
500
501[10:07] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "It would be a complete tragedy for me... I love my people, enough that I broke away from them to save them."
502
503[10:07] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "We will make the preparations to follow your plans, when we get in range we can choose to abort if the situation looks worse than we anticipated."
504
505[10:07] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "Understood, Captain."
506
507[10:08] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tamin] "Five minutes, might want to tell the Captain, ma'am."
508
509[10:08] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Actually, I think they may believe our research more in it's current form. If we promised 100% results... I can't think of anyone who would believe it. It might be something we should share, without>
510
511[10:08] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Officer thinking Helm..-hits her combadge- =^= XO to the Captain
512
513[10:08] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: reservation, or trying to bargain with it."
514
515[10:09] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: okay! Let me know if you need anythi..ing. *he blinked*
516
517[10:09] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Agreed doctor we do want to sell them false promises."
518
519[10:09] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "The cost of failure if surrounded and they agress us is high probablility of this colelctive underoing the mind alteration."
520
521[10:10] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li returns to his station.*
522
523[10:10] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods at Vaylith.-- "the stakes are very high on this one."
524
525[10:10] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: =^= XO to the Captain
526
527[10:10] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "i would rather convert them to allies, given the choice."
528
529[10:10] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: =/\=Captain here XO, go ahead.=/\=
530
531[10:11] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Indeed."
532
533[10:11] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: =^= Captain....we are less than five minutes from primary target
534
535[10:12] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tamin] *She got up to Eldax could take her console.* "Sir."
536
537[10:12] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: =/\=Understood XO, I want to pause just out of range to assess the situation. But, I think we have a plan I will be on the bridge in a moment to inform you of the details.=/\=
538
539[10:12] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: *he grinned to himself while he stared at his feet*
540
541[10:12] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *stretches his fingers*
542
543[10:13] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Brandt] "We got a babysitter now?"
544
545[10:13] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Apparently.
546
547[10:13] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Sulok] "We are approaching dangerous territory. Engineering is a high security area."
548
549[10:14] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she truns to Tirrhe.-- "be ready to address your people...We will let you know when it is time."
550
551[10:14] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "Yes, Captain T'Pang. And thank you for hearing me out."
552
553[10:14] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: Thank you for the observation, Ensign.
554
555[10:14] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: =^= Understood...Helm drop us just out of range from our destination
556
557[10:14] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Zohle] *She giggled.*
558
559[10:14] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods slowly-- "You are welcome."
560
561[10:15] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Yes Mam ,
562
563[10:15] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "We need to get back to the bridge."
564
565[10:15] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --turns and heads for the door.--
566
567[10:15] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Then hold us on station to all a full asessment as per the captain's orders
568
569[10:15] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *She goes to the research station, and packages the existing research and treatment process into a datafile ready for transfer.*
570
571[10:15] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li smirks at Zohle.*
572
573[10:16] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Nods once to Tirrhe and then to the docto before she follows the captain on strict steps*
574
575[10:16] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --has a wiggle in her step as she heads for the bridge.--
576
577[10:16] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I suggest we go dark commander.
578
579[10:16] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: agreed....all departments rig for dark running
580
581[10:17] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Ma'am. I assess one major topic of issue that has not been adressed."
582
583[10:17] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Take us to red and lock down all hgh security areas of the ship....maintain full dark running protoculs
584
585[10:17] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Two minuets to drop,

593[10:17] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "what woudl that be?"
594
595[10:17] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Very good Helm...find us a nice little hiding spot upon arrival and then hold on station as ordered
596
597[10:17] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "What prevents them from taking the ship and the cure by supeprior force?"
598
599[10:18] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Brandt] "Only if you let us stay up late and watch scary movies."
600
601[10:18] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *keys in the relayed command to rhys and brak*

608
609[10:19] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: thirty seconds
610
611[10:19] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Nothin prevents that. We need to convince them we are an essential componant here. I believe that to be the case."
612
613[10:19] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: =^ LI we are at Red Alert ...engage full dark running protocols
614
615[10:19] [DOIC4] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Understood. The XO has ordered silent running. Enigma has bene adviced and aware of intentional disconnect."
616
617[10:19] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: and here we go , *takes them out of warp *
618

626
627[10:20] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: just out of range of the targt
628
629[10:20] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --with that the lift arives on the bridge.--
630
631[10:20] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Very good Veracys

634
635[10:20] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: yes yes im seeing what i have to work with , Dont get too excited Commander,
636
637[10:20] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she walks out onto the bridge.-- "Status?"

639[10:20] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -staands-

641[10:21] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *sets the weapons systems and shields in dark running protocols*
642
643[10:21] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: We have arrived....Helm is looking for a nice quiet parking spot ..we are running with full dark protocols at red alert
644
645[10:21] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: =^= Yes ma'am.
646
647[10:21] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: all high security stations are under lock down...and Delta is at the readyf for QRF to repel boarders

650
651[10:22] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: =^= Thank you Li bridge out
652
653[10:22] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Tirrhe has suggested that we allow him to talk to Scyrthi and concinvce them he has control of thsi ship. He will request a parlay with them. He says thier customs demand they listen to him."
654
655[10:22] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: *he shrugged* I call on picking the movie..
656
657[10:22] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: That ...will buy us time to talk..before a battle breaks out
658
659[10:22] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li begins executing the required commands on his console.*
660
661[10:23] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: I trust Tirrhe
662
663[10:23] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "that is the idea. hopefully after he explains the existence of teh cure there will be no fighting."
664
665[10:23] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: May I make one recommendation to the plan?
666
667[10:24] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "What might that be?"
668
669[10:24] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *turns to the Con* Were just outside the bubble , so were not visable , so scans away.
670
671[10:24] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: We preset the ship's auto destruct....stopping right before you initiate the final countdown
672
673[10:24] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Zohle] "Just no 'Walking Borg,' I'm not watching another episode of that."

675[10:25] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Brandt] "You have no taste..."
676
677[10:25] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: I was thinking Nightmare on Du'fas street?
678
679[10:25] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Chuckles at Valkriss' idea.*
680
681[10:25] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: If they think we are the only ones with the cure should Tirrhe fail....we are...spared an attack...since if they ttack..we go as does their cure
682
683[10:26] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *checks his scanners passive levels* Well that increases odds.
684
685[10:26] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -says in an even tone as if ordering lunch-
686
687[10:26] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I got working scanners now, Commaner."
688
689[10:26] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Passive sweeps for now Mister T'Ghor
690
691[10:26] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "I am uncertain such meladramatic will be necessary. I was thinking we would make initial contact while hiding here in the shadows...in case they don't buy it. When we do move in, if things look ....
692
693[10:26] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I can confirm combat scanners are functioning as well.
694
695[10:26] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: shady we can implement your suggestion."
696
697[10:26] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *mumbles* "Oh such a good day to die....Naww im to pretty to die today "
698
699[10:27] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *runs his passive sweeps, as ordered.*
700
701[10:27] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: They are a warrior race with a drive for survival of the fittess mentality
702
703[10:27] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: If they do not believe we are ready to take the cure with us..we may be just inviting an agreesive attack
704
705[10:27] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *looks back * maby so But Commander....
706
707[10:28] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -nods to T'Pang-
708
709[10:28] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "I have heard that a wounded animal is the most dangerous. And, the Scyrthi have suffered more than thier share of wounds."
710
711[10:28] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Indeed....we should not underestimate them
712
713[10:28] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "A wounded animal will still bite the hand that tries to heal them."
714
715[10:28] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "This place is strange... no stellar bodies of any kind. Not even asteroids. This place is just... empty."
716
717[10:29] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Keep in mind..we are about to swim in a tank ful of blood sharks
718
719[10:29] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -to T'Ghor- its perimeter is wide open to spot agressors
720
721[10:29] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Don't worry Valkriss we wont forget our floaties."
722
723[10:29] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks but chuckles- Yes Captain
724
725[10:30] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *looks at the combat passive scanners*
726
727[10:30] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Commander,
728
729[10:30] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Yes Helm?
730
731[10:30] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Captain, recieving heavy signal contact on passive.,
732
733[10:30] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: At least five hundred vessels.
734
735[10:30] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: May i remind you , This is the Pilgrim,, theres something they dont know about us...
736
737[10:30] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she taps her comm badge-- =/\=Captain T'Pang to Arandak Tirrhe, we are in range and rady to attempt communications."
738
739[10:30] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Oh there is much they do not...but which in particular Eldax?
740
741[10:31] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *dose his best Malcom Renyolds impression " We aim to Misbehave "
742
743[10:31] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: It would seem inteligence about this being their base is accurate, there are ships of all classes and converted captures. Including a massive capital class ship.
744
745[10:32] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] =/\= "Understood, Captain, when you are ready."
746
747[10:32] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Making sure the bridge feed is running, to keep Arandak in the loop, she arms herself but puts her labcoat on over it.*
748
749[10:32] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -chuckles at that from Helm- Aint we just...
750
751[10:32] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I strongly suggest we withdraw if subterfuge is lacking.
752
753[10:32] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Vay...be ready to hail the Enigma if this turns nasty
754
755[10:33] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Understood."
756
757[10:33] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Mister T'Ghor prepare a holographic overlay of Arandak. To mask his current fraile condition...somehting suitably shadowy. We don't want to reveal to much about our hand here."
758
759[10:33] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: *starts to program in his evasive and attack patterens*
760
761[10:33] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: With all do respect even a single galaxy class would simply increase kill ratio commander.
762
763[10:33] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "If this turns nasty, we pretty much just have to turn and fly back out the way we came."
764
765[10:33] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Understood, Captain." *Starts preparing a shadowy rendition of Tirrhe.*
766
767[10:33] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "It's a long journey through the Passage."
768
769[10:33] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks- Have some faith Marcus...have some faith
770
771[10:34] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Lets focus on making this work so we don't have to run."
772
773[10:34] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Of coursse I will meet barca in the field if commanded.
774
775[10:34] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he smirked*
776
777[10:34] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks- Wouldnt be doing my Job captain if i didnt have all options ready for you
778
779[10:34] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Just like diving into the battle at earth with the iconians
780
781[10:35] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Indeed...we stuck it to them..w can do it again
782
783[10:35] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I... just cannot get the shadows to look right, Captain... maybe I could try to create a fake that synchs movements with him?"
784
785[10:35] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Just a regular fake of him in armour?"
786
787[10:36] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: They would expect him in his armor
788
789[10:36] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Do we have to have a visual? Why not just modulate his voice so it sounds like he's still in armour?"
790
791[10:36] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --I just want to make sure they don't see just how sick he is at the moment."
792
793[10:36] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Good Idea Veracys what about it T'Ghor?
794
795[10:36] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Voice modulation would be much easier? I can get on that."
796
797[10:37] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "We can go with that if it is the best we have."
798
799[10:37] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: the visual dely would give you more time on the shadows yes?
800
801[10:37] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: delay*
802
803[10:37] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Should we not simulate battle damage.
804
805[10:37] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I got the vocal moduation ready already."
806
807[10:37] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Would it not be more believable if the engines were slighlty damaged.
808
809[10:37] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Yes....I agree captain....have Li fluxuate our power readings
810
811[10:38] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "Sure let's put on a show for them."
812
813[10:38] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: and Eldax can easily look like he is limping to sucker them
814
815[10:38] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Knew I should've worn my tap dancing shoes."
816
817[10:39] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: What next use the hulls holo emitters to make them see battle dammage?
818
819[10:39] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I can keep working on the shadows, Captain, we have full vocal modulation up."
820
821[10:39] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: I dont think we need that Eldax
822
823[10:39] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: the better we look as captured prize the more status Tirrhe would have with his people
824
825[10:39] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Well Of course not takes to much power
826
827[10:39] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "We don't want to over play our hand here."
828
829[10:40] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: the better we look as captured prize the more status Tirrhe would have with his people
830
831[10:40] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods at Valkriss--
832
833[10:40] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Still, let's not put -too- much lipstick on this pig. They might start asking questions."
834
835[10:40] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -to Gayle- My point
836
837[10:40] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] *she nodded.*
838
839[10:40] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Alright people it is show time. Hail the Scyrthi and patch them through to Tirrhe."
840
841[10:41] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Vocal modulation on."
842
843[10:41] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: T'ghor keep working on those shadow effects in case they press for a visual
844
845[10:41] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Placing lip garnish on a swine seems precarious.
846
847[10:41] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Working on it." *He kept plying around with them.*
848
849[10:41] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "I've opened a channel... let's hope Tirrhe can sing as good as he makes it seem."
850
851[10:42] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she raises an eyebrow at Gayle--
852
853[10:42] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smiles at Gayles comment-
854
855[10:42] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dahlia sets any incoming requests for coms directed at her or Sohn to page via PADD, visual and vibration with no audio.*
856
857[10:42] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: * Tirrhe's voice, once again in the low, warped baritone produced by a Scyrthi's armour.*
858
859[10:43] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *could be heard ))
860
861[10:43] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --stood in silence listening and waiting to see the results of thier efforst.--
862
863[10:44] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "I am Captain Arandak Tirrhe. I claim sovereignty of this vessel, the U.S.S. Pilgrim, and ownership of all beings present upon it. I come in peace to parlay with Speaker Savras Cirhun. ...
864
865[10:45] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: Any action taken against myself, my ship or my property will be seen as a violation of my Rights as a Scyrthi, an offense punishable by our laws with forfeiture of all possessions. We are...
866
867[10:45] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: making our approach. Signal that we will not be harmed."
868
869[10:46] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -grits her fangs and whispers- ..well boasted my friend
870
871[10:46] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Let's just hope we didn't accidentally sign ourselves over into slavery..."
872
873[10:46] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --glares at Gayle.--
874
875[10:47] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Then I will stand as spartacus and see it rectified with hopefully better end.
876
877[10:47] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he smirked at gayle*
878
879[10:47] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Captain, I'm receiving a return signal from their capital ship. They pledge safe passage so long as we take no offensive action and keep our weapons powered down."
880
881[10:47] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: I reccomand we do so
882
883[10:48] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she frowns.-- "I wonder if they would consider shields to be 'offensive'?"
884
885[10:48] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "We could ask Tirrhe?"
886
887[10:48] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: They did not say shields..so we should keep them up....but check with Tirrhe Captain
888
889[10:48] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he starts to say something but doesn't*
890
891[10:49] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods-- =/\=Captain T'Pang to Arandak Tirrhe.=/\=
892
893[10:49] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "I'm keeping the transporter inhibitors up regardless, Captain."
894
895[10:49] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --nods at Gayle--
896
897[10:49] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Captain U recoomend Delta and security to repe l boarder stations on every deck
898
899[10:50] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] =/\= "Captain, I imagine that was sufficient?"
900
901[10:51] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: =/\=Hopefully, I am curious when they say no offensive action..do they cound raising shields as 'offensive action'?"
902
903[10:51] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] =/\= "They would not, in fact keeping your shields raised is a sign that you have no intent to forcibly board anyone else's vessel."
904
905[10:52] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods to Valkriss-- "Having Delta and security on station to repel potential boaders is prudent."
906
907[10:52] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: =/\=Thank you ARandak.=/\=
908
909[10:52] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Deploy the troops Marcus..all decks
910
911[10:52] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Raise shields but leave weapons powered down."
912
913[10:52] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *follows command*
914
915[10:52] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *sends full allert to rhys*

923[10:53] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "We can probably restore visual once we're inside and out of the Passageway, too."
924
925[10:54] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: [helm is afk atm fam agro]
926
927[10:54] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she looks at Valkriss.-- "Would the self destruct make you feel better?"
928
929[10:54] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: ((I am pretending he heard and is taking us in :)))
930
931[10:54] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks- We can prep it if and when this goes south Captain
932
933[10:54] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Its not a very long process
934
935[10:55] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I could always order Ensign brak to detonate the magazine.
936
937[10:55] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *smirks*
938
939[10:55] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she nods-- "We will keep that option open."
940
941[10:55] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Agreed Captain and Marcu sjust keep him from tripping over it please
942
943[10:55] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Slowly, the Pilgrim breeched the Scyrthi pocket and slid neatly inside. As Gayle restored visuals, the viewscreen showed hundreds of Scyrthi vessels, many zipping around a massive cluster of ships..
944
945[10:55] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Or selling it... *he said under his breath*
946
947[10:56] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: ....That is a lot of ships
948
949[10:56] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Yeah."
950
951[10:56] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Target Rich Environmennt.
952
953[10:56] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Dont let me catch you missing then Marcus
954
955[10:56] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: that seemed to have been placed together into a rather effective space station. Floating high above was the largest Scyrthi vessel they'd encountered by far, dwarfing the Pilgrim a few times over.*
956
957[10:57] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Perish The thought commander.
958
959[10:57] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --frowns--

961[10:57] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Registering new vessels."
962
963[10:57] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "This... is their entire species, isn't it?"
964
965[10:58] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "It is likely the bulk of it Gayle."
966
967[10:58] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Reminds me of the Hurq swarms.
968
969[10:58] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Even counting everyone on all these ships... they can't be more than a few million at most. That's the size of a small city."
970
971[10:58] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Indeed....it does seem like a nest...industrius race
972
973[10:59] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: one has to admire their drive to survive
974
975[10:59] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Such a will
976
977[11:00] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Hopefully, an appeal to thier desire to regain what was taken from them will get through to them."
978
979[11:00] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: I hope so as well -nods to Tpang-
980
981[11:01] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he checks the scanners*
982
983[11:01] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *The Pilgrim coasted through the ships, looking very much like an insect moving into another species' hive as they drew closer to the station.*
984
985[11:01] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: For now they seem to be mimicing our ready state.
986
987[11:02] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: the boys and girls of Magellan are going to b turning hand springs when they see this
988
989[11:02] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "so far so good."
990
991[11:02] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Watch then like a blood hawk Marcus

998
999[11:03] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "correct."
1000
1001[11:03] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: He means....WHo?
1002
1003[11:03] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "We're being hailed by the capital ship, Captain. Speaker Savras Cirhun is agreeing to the parlay and wants to come aboard."

1005[11:03] [DOIC1] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Exactly, Commander."
1006
1007[11:03] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Completely assimilated before federation contact. No federation name in database, ma'am."
1008
1009[11:03] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: That could be problematic.
1010
1011[11:04] [DOIC1] Valkriss@Isis.: Oh and there is our usual luck

1013[11:04] [DOIC1] T'Pang@Demoncherub: =/\=T'Pang to Tirrhe..=/\=

1344
1345[11:45] [DOIC4] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Disconnects his PADD from the screen, in case Dahlia wants to use it in addition to the holointerface.*
1346
1347[11:45] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --has a resting Vulcan face on as she passively watches the action.--
1348
1349[11:46] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Sir.. if you will look to the screen here, and here.. this is an analysis of the genetic code that exists in your people today... and here is the ancient sample."
1350
1351[11:47] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "It is possible, using a specifically engineered retrovirus to correct the damage, my analysis is that it would be 88% effective in embryonic stage... only 69% effective later in life."
1352
1353[11:47] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cirhun] "So eight or nine of ten would be cured?"
1354
1355[11:48] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "And by effective, I mean, survivable. There will not be any guarantee, it is .. a complete rewriting of genetics."
1356
1357[11:48] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cirhun] "You will do it," *he said flatly.* "You will make it work."
1358
1359[11:48] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Yes, sir. There will.. be losses. I am .. trying, to better that still."
1360
1361[11:49] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cirhun] "Make it work. If you are lying and it cannot be done, we will take this ship, these slaves, and the rebel."
1362
1363[11:49] [DOIC4] Valkriss@Isis.: You willl see the process is your way back to the skies Speaker -says flatly-
1364
1365[11:49] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cirhun] "It had better be."
1366
1367[11:50] [DOIC4] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "We gave many lives to get the relic, and take vengeance for Hessok Vridi. Lives dear to us, Speaker. We did not come this far to fail."
1368
1369[11:50] [DOIC4] Valkriss@Isis.: It is -keep shis gaze-
1370
1371[11:50] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cirhun] "Then do not fail. You have until they hatch in one week's time."
1372
1373[11:50] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cirhun] "Are we done, then?"
1374
1375[11:51] [DOIC4] Valkriss@Isis.: Yes...let us work then...she will need access to your daughter's clutch yes?
1376
1377[11:51] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cirhun] "We will send the nest along after I have returned. My guards will stay here to ensure nothing untoward happens to the eggs."
1378
1379[11:52] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "I would very much like have that opportunity. In the name of life, and peace."
1380
1381[11:52] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: I heard talk like that before , when i did what i did with the first Mayflower, against the I.S.S. Adagio
1382
1383[11:52] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "that is acceptable Speaker."
1384
1385[11:53] [DOIC4] Valkriss@Isis.: We do not strike at children...her clutch is safe...and the doctor will show you the truth
1386
1387[11:53] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cirhun] *He then hit Tirrhe with another stare.* "If you are lying to me... you commit the greatest crime a Scyrthi could possibly commit. We will not be merciful."
1388
1389[11:53] [DOIC4] Valkriss@Isis.: -nods to the CMO-
1390
1391[11:53] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Tirrhe] "I swear to you, Speaker... I do this for all Scyrthi."
1392
1393[11:53] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Merely advicing an tricobalt explosion within the instability of Tartarus Expanse has an significant risk of colapsing the corridor we came to, or even chain react, Commander."
1394
1395[11:54] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cirhun] "Very well. I am ready to return to my ship, then."
1396
1397[11:54] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "understood speaker."
1398
1399[11:54] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: =/\=Captain T'Pang to bridge...=/\=

1401[11:55] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: Oh Wel thank you for letting me know that, What would a warp core breach do the the Exspance?
1402
1403[11:55] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Nothing good. You're being paged, Commander."
1404
1405[11:55] [DOIC1] Eldax@Flashpoint1.0: =^+ brige here Captain

1407[11:56] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: =/\=Yes, Speaker Cirhun will be returning to his own vessle now. I seems we have reached a tentative agreement.'=/\=

1412
1413[11:58] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Cirhun] *He was still staring intently at the screen as he was whisked back to his ship in a shower of sparkles.*
1414
1415[11:58] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Dr McCoy, would you assist with preparing another isolation chamber, appropriate for a hatchery?"
1416
1417[11:59] [DOIC4] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Sighs.* "Alright, now for the difficult part..."
1418
1419[11:59] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [McCoy] "Sure, but if you get a clutch of ducklings imprinting on you, it's your problem, not mine."
1420
1421[12:00] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: --she looks toward the Doctor.-- "Doctor Delancey, needless to say this project has the highest priority. Any resources you need or personell you need help from you are authorized to utilize."
1422
1423[12:00] [DOIC4] Valkriss@Isis.: -smirks- No you just prefer giant white rabbots
1424
1425[12:00] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: *Dahlia laughs*
1426
1427[12:00] [DOIC4] Valkriss@Isis.: rabbits*
1428
1429[12:00] [DOIC4] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Doctor McCoy has a point. The hatchlings should spend time with their mother regularly..."
1430
1431[12:00] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [McCoy] *He gave Valkriss an irritated look.*
1432
1433[12:00] [DOIC4] Valkriss@Isis.: -sweet smile back to the old codger-
1434
1435[12:01] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "Of coure, please transmit that the mother is welcomed to be here with them, throughout."
1436
1437[12:01] [DOIC4] Valkriss@Isis.: I agree Captain with them
1438
1439[12:01] [DOIC4] Valkriss@Isis.: His guards are here...he should know she wil be safe
1440
1441[12:01] [DOIC4] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Nods.*
1442
1443[12:02] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Certainly, the mother is welcome to beam over and be here throughout the proceedure."
1444
1445[12:02] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Sohn] *She walked up to T'Ghor.* "Not a bad presentation."
1446
1447[12:03] [DOIC4] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Thanks, Lieutenant. Now it's you and the doctor's show. If you need any more... menial labour, to help you free your mind up for the big genetics of it, let me know."
1448
1449[12:03] [DOIC4] T'Pang@Demoncherub: "Doctor is there is anything else you need, just let me or Valkriss know. We will get it for you."
1450
1451[12:03] [DOIC4] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "I am not much of a geneticist, but myself and the department got you and the doctor's back."
1452
1453[12:03] [DOIC4] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Sohn] "Otsuka will be a big help, and of course anything you can lend to it would be much appreciated. We have a week to undo generations of damage."
1454
1455[12:04] [DOIC4] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: *Nods, pressing on his commbadge.* =^= "T'Ghor to Otsuka?"
1456
1457[12:04] [DOIC6] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Otsuka] =/\= "Yes, boss?"
1458
1459[12:04] [DOIC4] Valkriss@Isis.: Indeed doctor
1460
1461[12:04] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: "A team ofcooruuse."
1462
1463[12:04] [DOIC4] Dalliance@Gonz.0: ((team of course))

1466
1467[12:05] [DOIC4] T'Ghor@bulgariandragon1: "Counting on your help, and I know you will not fail them."
1468
1469[12:07] [DOIC] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *As the preparations were made for how they were going to overcome their tall order, the Scyrthi ships continued to zip about in their little free pocket and the credits began to roll... *
1470
1471[12:07] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: So.. if you never used flashcards.. how did you study efficiently? *he tilted his head*
1472
1473[12:07] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: By reading the material?
1474
1475[12:10] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Brandt] "Does Security even get any material aside from 'how to shoot stuff?'"
1476
1477[12:11] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *watches the scanners*
1478
1479[12:12] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Commander Gayle, permission to change ACCI out from full silence?"
1480
1481[12:13] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Sure, I don't think we're fooling anyone at this point."
1482
1483[12:13] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: *he shook his head* No we had to read other stuff.. It's way more complicated than just learning how to shoot stuff.
1484
1485[12:13] [DOIC1] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Understood, Advicing Engima and command of current status."
1486
1487[12:14] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: And reading straight from the book just sounds.. boring..
1488
1489[12:15] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Zohle] "Well, we're engineers... when do we ever read straight from the book?"
1490
1491[12:15] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Sulok] "I often refer back to the written material."
1492
1493[12:15] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Zohle] "...Course you do..."
1494
1495[12:16] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: That is best practice.
1496
1497[12:16] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Brandt] "Uh... yeah, I read the manual, too. Definitely."
1498
1499[12:17] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: *he eyed Brandt* Whst kind of bolts do you use on standard bulkheads?
1500
1501[12:17] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Kol] "We know when you lie, Brandt..." *The lanky betazoid reminded him as he walked past.*
1502
1503[12:17] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Brandt] "...The ones with the flat head."
1504
1505[12:18] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: *he looked at the others* I don't know if that's right or wrong..
1506
1507[12:18] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *checks his console again*
1508
1509[12:19] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Sulok] "Bolt model IXJ78-B91 is indeed flat on the top."
1510
1511[12:19] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *It was still a console.*
1512
1513[12:20] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *seems releaved the console was not a mimic*
1514
1515[12:20] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Console] *Seems relieved that it had not been found out.*
1516
1517[12:21] [DOIC3] Istrin@the5of435: ..You passed the pop quiz, congrats.
1518
1519[12:22] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Brandt] "Hell yeah!" *He offered Sulok a brofist.*
1520
1521[12:22] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Commander, it would seem we stand at impasse. Perhaps beta watch.
1522
1523[12:22] [DOIC3] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Sulok] *He did not pound it.*
1524
1525[12:22] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: To keep alpha fresh should hostility begin.
1526
1527[12:22] [DOIC1] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Gayle] "Mhm, from the reports it seems we might be here a while."
1528
1529[12:23] [DOIC3] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li chuckles.*

1549[12:28] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Se to it. If you fail the only fortunate thing will be that we will be dead. So you will not face my wrath.
1550
1551[12:29] [DOIC1] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Unless I seek you out in your Eternal Vault.

1595[12:42] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "One standard serving of sugested Vegetarian dish, one large glass of appropriate cold dink suited to main course. One 34 degree slice of carrot cake."
1596
1597[12:43] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Why would I wish a salad that causes convulsions?
1598
1599[12:43] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Vernon] "Yes, ma'am." *He went to get it for her.*
1600
1601[12:43] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Vernon] "...Caesar, sir. Like the guy with the laurels."

1610
1611[12:45] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: However perhaps one did exist on earth.
1612
1613[12:46] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Vernon] "I thought he was German?"

1667[12:58] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: You got that from "perhaps".
1668
1669[1:00] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Have you noticed anything in my performance?
1670
1671[1:00] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *seems concerned about that statement*
1672
1673[1:01] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "No. From assessing your actions on the bridge, deviation of patterns and habits. Complimenting the observation is the TAASPO readout, sugesting the same."
1674
1675[1:02] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: TAASPO?
1676
1677[1:03] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Abrevation irrelevant. Sensors."
1678
1679[1:04] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I suppose I have been in the gym a little more than usual.
1680
1681[1:04] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "You have participated in behaviour designated escapism?"
1682
1683[1:04] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Anne has been busy. Leaving me with freetime I stand unaccustomed to.
1684
1685[1:05] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: She does not wish my assistance and so I do not assist.
1686
1687[1:05] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Nor do you associate with her."
1688
1689[1:05] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Not as of late.
1690
1691[1:05] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he finishes his wine*
1692
1693[1:06] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Have you terminated your connection beyond working nessesities?"
1694
1695[1:07] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I do not know.
1696
1697[1:07] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he puts his fork down* I do not think she wishes that.
1698
1699[1:07] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Nor do I seek it. But she does not wish to speak with me, merely engage in fornication.
1700
1701[1:07] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Understood." *Take some well messured, calcualted bites of her food*
1702
1703[1:07] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And see me on my way.
1704
1705[1:08] [DOIC6] Zorin Li@ClingingMars: *Li beams at the PADD.*
1706
1707[1:08] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Our journey through the passage. Frustrations were made clear.
1708
1709[1:09] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It was noticed, She actively sought to not assist the colelctives selected course of action, insisting on individual atempts without liasioning the details of such atempts. It was by my assessment >
1710
1711[1:09] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: > unbecomming to her character and professionalism."
1712
1713[1:12] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: The reasons best left to secure conversation.
1714
1715[1:12] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Understood." *Takes another bite of her food*
1716
1717[1:13] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he eats*
1718
1719[1:15] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he doesn't seem to have much of an appetite*
1720
1721[1:15] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Places her palm on her PADD for seven seconds, the nresumes her eating*
1722
1723[1:17] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Consume your nutritions for the efficient execution of duties, not your current preferences, lieutenant."
1724
1725[1:18] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *laughs* Rememberence of mother giving similar instruction. I will fall to command.
1726
1727[1:18] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he eats*
1728
1729[1:19] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: There is somethign I have yet to tell anne.
1730
1731[1:19] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is my understanding mothers often have accurate knowledge in terms of well being of those unable to care for such themselves."
1732
1733[1:19] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: That also ways heavy on mind.
1734
1735[1:20] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Is such also for private ears?"
1736
1737[1:20] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: On a ship this small perhaps.
1738
1739[1:20] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Jagoda and Nairem were at the next table over talking about the season finale of The Walking Borg.*
1740
1741[1:20] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he finishes up the lasagna*
1742
1743[1:21] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Arches her implant covered eyebrow at the comment regarding walking borg*
1744
1745[1:23] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *listens* It would seem the human penchant for converting reality into entertainment is without limits.
1746
1747[1:23] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Ensign? Explain, Walking Borg?" *To Jagoda*
1748
1749[1:27] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jagoda] "Huh? Oh, sorry... it's a holoprogram."
1750
1751[1:27] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "About?"
1752
1753[1:27] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nairem] "A group of survivors on a world that's been overtaken by the Borg."
1754
1755[1:28] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Seems unlikely premise.
1756
1757[1:28] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jagoda] "Well, it's fiction..."
1758
1759[1:29] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Would they not simply be scanned down and beamed into an assimilation chamber?
1760
1761[1:29] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nairem] "No, 'cause they have this scientist with them who fashioned a sensor dampener!"
1762
1763[1:29] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "How fortunate for them."
1764
1765[1:30] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jagoda] "Well, until he gets assimilated and the borg learn how to track them..."
1766
1767[1:30] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nairem] "Dude, don't spoil it for them!"
1768
1769[1:30] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Then the technological knowledge fall to the colelctive and they track down teh survivors?"
1770
1771[1:31] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nairem] "We don't know yet, the season ended on a cliffhanger."
1772
1773[1:31] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jagoda] "I still think it was just a dream sequence."
1774
1775[1:31] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Perhaps they are already assimilated.
1776
1777[1:31] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Existing in a unimatrix node within the collective conciousnes.
1778
1779[1:31] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nairem] "Oh, that would be a crazy twist!"
1780
1781[1:31] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It would be inefficient entertainment where they to be assimilated."
1782
1783[1:32] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jagoda] "Yeah man, they have to make it out alive."
1784
1785[1:33] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Technically they would be alive.
1786
1787[1:33] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jagoda] "Well, you know what I mean."
1788
1789[1:33] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: It would seem that suspension of disbelief is common within all forms of entertainment.
1790
1791[1:33] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Highly subjective to an individual interpritation of alive in contrast to living."
1792
1793[1:34] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jagoda] "I guess?"
1794
1795[1:36] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Takes a few bites of her food, finishing hte main course*
1796
1797[1:37] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I have seen many such holoprograms becoming popular.
1798
1799[1:38] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nairem] "Have you ever seen 'Game of Kais?' It's super popular on Bajor."
1800
1801[1:38] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Entertainment facination of that which can destroy them is in my observation common."
1802
1803[1:38] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: The way my own people are depicted is quite interesting. Including one where we were found not my the Federation but the romulans and eventually we lead an assault on earth.
1804
1805[1:39] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: But we apparently still fought with gladiuses on board D'deridex warbirds.
1806
1807[1:39] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "That seems inefficient."
1808
1809[1:39] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: (( gladii))
1810
1811[1:39] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Indeed.
1812
1813[1:40] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Oh and the Legate had six wives all with him on the vessel.
1814
1815[1:40] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jagoda] "More women more problems, am I right?"
1816
1817[1:40] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nairem] "...Rolan... seriously?"
1818
1819[1:40] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Arces her implant-brow at Jagoda*
1820
1821[1:41] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jagoda] "I mean... no offense..."
1822
1823[1:41] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I will let you attempt retreat from overextension.
1824
1825[1:41] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *laughs*
1826
1827[1:42] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nairem] *He just shoved Jagoda's breadroll into the human's mouth.* "Talking privilidges are over."
1828
1829[1:42] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: The disbelief there was if they were truly with him on campaign they would be following behind in a cloaked follower vessel.
1830
1831[1:42] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jagoda] "Mmf."
1832
1833[1:42] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Sticking with the traditions they were keeping to.
1834
1835[1:43] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Is those of the female gender actually cuasing such an drop in efficiency?" *Looks at Jagoda*
1836
1837[1:43] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jagoda] *He slowly took the bread out of his mouth.* "N-no, ma'am."
1838
1839[1:44] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "However...?"
1840
1841[1:45] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Jagoda] "...No howevers, ma'am. I, um..." *He hit his combadge then.* "Oh, what was that Lieutenant? Right away! Sorry, I have to go!" *he hurried out of the room.*
1842
1843[1:46] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: He is not very skilled in deception.
1844
1845[1:46] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is my assessment he misscalculated my interegation to the ship and its systems, including status of them"
1846
1847[1:47] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nairem] *The Bajoran snickered.*
1848
1849[1:47] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Miscalcuation is adequate descriptor of his err.
1850
1851[1:49] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "The intelligence to the ensigns difficulties with genders beyond his own seems accurate."
1852
1853[1:49] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I am not in position to pass judgement.
1854
1855[1:50] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nairem] "Guy means well, he just seems to have a thing about sticking his foot directly into his mouth."
1856
1857[1:50] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "High agility is an efficient trait, however unrelated to his social issue."
1858
1859[1:51] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nairem] "I mean he stays the exact wrong thing... frequently. He's a great geologist, but his social skills are just... not there." *He got his tray.* "See you, Lieutenants, thanks for the chat."
1860
1861[1:52] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Untill then." *Nods once*
1862
1863[1:52] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *laughs* You could say his ways are set upon stones.
1864
1865[1:53] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is my assessment species 5618 with subcultures had a high tendency of creating their ancient roads from stones."
1866
1867[1:54] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: [Nairem] "Uh... sure. Good night." *he turned his tray in and headed out.*
1868
1869[1:54] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Yes. But sometimes a path eventually leads no where. No matter how well built.
1870
1871[1:55] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Shall we relocate to an position more efficient for the conversation you shought to have, lieutenant?"
1872
1873[1:56] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: If that is suitable. I believe the customary price for bending the ear fo a friend is a nightcap.
1874
1875[1:57] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Explain."
1876
1877[1:57] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: A drink Vaylith. I was suggesting my quarters.
1878
1879[1:57] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Understood."
1880
1881[1:58] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he stands retrieving his tray to recycle*
1882
1883[1:58] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Finishes her carrot cake and takes her trey to be recycled*
1884
1885[2:00] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *waits on her then walks to the turbolift*
1886
1887[2:01] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Enters the turbolift*
1888
1889[2:02] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *tells the turbolift his deck*
1890
1891[2:02] [DOIC5] DGM Apocalypse@liorexus: *Woosh.*
1892
1893[2:03] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *walks through the deck*
1894
1895[2:03] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *enters his quarters and holds the door for vaylith*
1896
1897[2:04] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Enters after marcus, holding her PADD in her left hand*
1898
1899[2:04] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *they still look lieka campaing tent, a little unkempt compared to normal but nothing crazy. The campaign desk is not set*
1900
1901[2:04] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he takes his jacket off*
1902
1903[2:04] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: PLease, make yourslef comfortable. Wine?
1904
1905[2:06] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "No. Tea, Trill blackleaf, Variation 42."
1906
1907[2:07] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *nods and fetches it from the replicator*
1908
1909[2:08] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Takes a seat, placing her PADD next to her on the couch*
1910
1911[2:09] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *brings her her drink and joins with a cup of his own*
1912
1913[2:10] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Takes her cup of tea and slowly sips from it*
1914
1915[2:10] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he sips hte wine*
1916
1917[2:11] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I value your friendship and your discrection vayltih. You are a most honored confidant.
1918
1919[2:11] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Explain?"
1920
1921[2:13] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I feel I can talk with you absent pretense.
1922
1923[2:13] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Understood."
1924
1925[2:13] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: What has been going on with Anne is troubling, both in matter of heart and that of concern. But it is not the only thing.
1926
1927[2:14] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Explain."
1928
1929[2:14] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: With latest data packet from home before mission to the the Tartarus expanse. I received word from Honored mother.
1930
1931[2:14] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Nods once*
1932
1933[2:15] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Our name, Antonius has risen agian in promenance. Due to the actions of Decia in performign an acneint binding ritual between house antonius and house Valeria.
1934
1935[2:16] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: She stands as sister to me now. In a sense.
1936
1937[2:16] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Understood."
1938
1939[2:16] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: The problem is I am unwed.
1940
1941[2:17] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And my mother is no lacking in suitors seeking to marry into this alliance.
1942
1943[2:17] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *sips his wine bigger*
1944
1945[2:18] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: So it is ironically as Mr Jagoda said. And Elevated amount of females has led to a escalation of difficulties.
1946
1947[2:18] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I fail to connect the sociocultural premse and expectation of your home to the current issue?"
1948
1949[2:19] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Anne is not roman. A fact neither I nor my cares about. My mother quite likes her. But I fear eventually we will have to give in to repeated demands.
1950
1951[2:20] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I already schucked the responsibilty of binding the house once when I joined starfleet.
1952
1953[2:20] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: My younger brother married the intended bride.
1954
1955[2:20] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "You still remain in starfleet. I fail to see how the issue has resurfaced?"
1956
1957[2:21] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I am perfect now. I have name. An absent husband carrying name is most benefitial to a poltical marraige.
1958
1959[2:21] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And the ambitions of the father of the wife.
1960
1961[2:22] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Do as captain Arfacio"
1962
1963[2:22] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: What is that?
1964
1965[2:22] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "She is married to her duty."
1966
1967[2:23] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Despite some protests on the topic."
1968
1969[2:23] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *laughs a full hearty laugh*
1970
1971[2:23] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Remains emotionless*
1972
1973[2:24] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *between lauging* I believe I have failed to make dilema clear.
1974
1975[2:24] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Correct."
1976
1977[2:24] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I love anne. She holds my heart no matter how much it pains me at the moment.
1978
1979[2:25] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Nods once*
1980
1981[2:26] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And if we were to be married the pressure would stop. But I do not think she would ever consider it. KNowledge well known before acting upon cupid's arrow.
1982
1983[2:26] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I would simply fall to being a Lanista. And so would my house eventually. If Decia were to fall in combat or my father.
1984
1985[2:27] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Marriage is an irrelevant social pretence, it only hold fiat value of such. The pressure exists based on an social inefficiency in seeking it to hold meaning."
1986
1987[2:28] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Perhaps. I find this quite tiring and if it only affected myself. It would be of little consequence.
1988
1989[2:29] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: The problem is that of my younger sister, now at the age of marriage herself.
1990
1991[2:30] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: My mother has been attempting to allow her ever oppurtunity to choose. A choice my mother once stood absent and my father would see his daughter have.
1992
1993[2:30] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he finishes his wine and then pours himself more*
1994
1995[2:31] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "How is the selection of enslavement for your sister tied to the issue?"
1996
1997[2:33] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: She wishes it?
1998
1999[2:33] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Then where is the problem?"
2000
2001[2:35] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: She has mind towards the eldest son of a prominent family, the Pompeius.
2002
2003[2:36] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I still fail to understand the issue in this?"
2004
2005[2:36] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *pauses a moment* Roma is still very much two worlds.
2006
2007[2:37] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: The one the federation wants us to be. That the those that follow the church of the son want us to be, and that the Senate pretends that we are.
2008
2009[2:37] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And the old ways, still ever present. Pompeius is the definition of the old ways and he has nine daughters.
2010
2011[2:38] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Connection to your brothers and sisters martial status is?"
2012
2013[2:38] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Marriage is still how houses are united, and most inheretence is still done patriachially.
2014
2015[2:39] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Some have changed from this. House Valeria for instance.
2016
2017[2:39] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: My father's own attempts to temper some of the old ways while supporting others in our own.
2018
2019[2:40] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: But the truth is my sisters ability to find her own happiness may be linked to my own ability to sacrifice for it.
2020
2021[2:40] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Explain connection?"
2022
2023[2:41] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Pompeius has only agreed to entertain the idea of a wedding between my sister Antonius and his son Gnaeus if I am willing to wed one or more of his five child rearing aged daughters.
2024
2025[2:41] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he grimaces when he adds the "or more"
2026
2027[2:42] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Then dismiss the notion."
2028
2029[2:43] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: It is not that simple. He also has the ability to see that my brother severus is never elected to public office again, and severus for all his faults truly is only good at being a politician and is a
2030
2031[2:43] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: decent one.
2032
2033[2:44] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: My brother Claudius recently entered Starfleet Academy himself.
2034
2035[2:44] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: But he is third born and not of worth to Pompeius.
2036
2037[2:44] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Coruption of a member entity is an serious offence within the federation. Illuminate the atempt."
2038
2039[2:44] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *laughs*
2040
2041[2:45] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Democracy does not require corruption to smear an opponent.
2042
2043[2:45] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Merely motive to make light that which would make unfavorable,
2044
2045[2:46] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: The fact that my brother has been wed for years and stands lacking children if pressed could be used to ensure he never holds office higher than a junior senator.
2046
2047[2:46] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Threats does. If the threat involves the forfitting of individuality by civil union. It stands as matter of investigating. Further if the so called blackmail is of effect to an officer of starfleet >
2048
2049[2:47] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: > involved in teh security classed PM, It will face more severe investigation. It is my understanding politicans of moderately compromized position find investigation to be inefficient to thier >
2050
2051[2:47] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: > agenda."
2052
2053[2:47] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Yes polticians which work overtly.
2054
2055[2:48] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: A man such as Pompeius does not.
2056
2057[2:48] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: He does not hold the office. And To look into the corruption of Magna Roma. An onion has fewer layers.
2058
2059[2:49] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "More reasons to find an heavy presence of investigation to be inefficient to his position."
2060
2061[2:50] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I had not considered that I could use position to turn threat of blackmail upon him.
2062
2063[2:52] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Perhaps you could be of assistance in this. I doubt very much pompeius understands starfleet procedures.
2064
2065[2:52] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Starfleet views measure sto affect individuals asigned to PM as an prioritized issue. It is my assessment from your information this individual is seeking to force your hand."
2066
2067[2:54] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Yes. Now None of his daughters are unattractive. It is a rumor they all were genetically selected. Again something to potentially hide from such investigation.
2068
2069[2:55] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is my assessment he has significant reason to adhere to expected prcedures upon information of facts to the consequences of exerting lobbying agaisnt an officer of key position within PM"
2070
2071[2:56] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It stand to reason how your fathers position makes the crime further severe."
2072
2073[2:57] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Yes very much so which is why the decision is being posited to me. If were to even contact my father with the ultimatum it would end the endeavor and make him unable to refuse.
2074
2075[2:58] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I vastly prefer combat to politics.
2076
2077[2:58] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Combat is politics."
2078
2079[3:00] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Well then I prefer the weapons of that form of politics much better.
2080
2081[3:01] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I sometimes wish I had been born on earth. HUman born there seem to have less responsibilites outside personal betterment.
2082
2083[3:01] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I am not qualified to assess that statement."
2084
2085[3:03] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "How will you proceed to efficiently eliminate the threat of consequences of goign agaisnt the political gains of another?"
2086
2087[3:05] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: There is a way. That would allow him to save face. And potentially solve the issue. I will have to speak to my mother It would affect her most of all.
2088
2089[3:06] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Explain."
2090
2091[3:06] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: A wardship. Pompeius would allow the wedding of my sister to his son Gnaeus. In exchange, his eldest two daguhters would live with my family, the idea beign that their pairing would now fall on my >
2092
2093[3:07] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: mother, as would the cost of their living standards.
2094
2095[3:07] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I fail to see the need to comply to Pompeius in any regard."
2096
2097[3:08] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Because his son would not go against the father.
2098
2099[3:08] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: We could assassinate him.
2100
2101[3:08] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: That would also solve the problem
2102
2103[3:08] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he doesn't seem to be joking*
2104
2105[3:08] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Assassination is illigal."
2106
2107[3:09] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Is it?
2108
2109[3:09] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Jupiter's cock, where's general order 1 when you need it.
2110
2111[3:09] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is not assassination if it is not iligal."
2112
2113[3:12] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I fail to see the need to dispose of the individual if he is made aware of that unlawful affecting an officer of starfleet, in this case asigned PM, Comes with significant investigation."
2114
2115[3:13] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Perhaps that threat will do.
2116
2117[3:13] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Or the other arrangement.
2118
2119[3:13] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I will speka with my mother officially and my father unofficially on this when next I can.
2120
2121[3:14] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Gratitude for your insight good vaylith.
2122
2123[3:14] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I find it inappropriate to sacrefice your familys integrity to satisfy an individual of such morals as the person in question."
2124
2125[3:17] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I have hope that it will not be. I feared that discussing this with Anne in her current she would be of the same mind as pompeius.
2126
2127[3:17] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Seeking to marry me off.
2128
2129[3:18] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Social slavery is part of individuality on the basis only the individuality shall be allowed to forfit it, not external pressure."
2130
2131[3:19] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Social slavery. An interesting if not perhaps accurate method of describing marriage.
2132
2133[3:20] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Was Zalithya married? I do not believe I have asked that before. Apologies if subject is sensitive.
2134
2135[3:20] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Her death certificate stats she was not married."
2136
2137[3:22] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I wonder if she shared the assesment of that social condition.
2138
2139[3:23] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I do not remember."
2140
2141[3:23] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he finishes the second drink of wine*
2142
2143[3:24] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is my assessment she was not opposed to the concept of intimacy."
2144
2145[3:27] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Intimacy and marriage are two different things.
2146
2147[3:27] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Would you like more to drink.
2148
2149[3:27] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "One cup is agreeable."
2150
2151[3:27] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he moves to refill his cup*
2152
2153[3:28] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I stood well provided for in the former while blissfully lacking the later until recently.
2154
2155[3:29] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is my assessment marriage is unsuited and efficient when combined with an career in starfleet. An ambition which is more efficiently served after ones duty is concluded."
2156
2157[3:29] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Unfortunatley time often does not agree with that assessment. Especialy if children are a goal.
2158
2159[3:30] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: What about intimacy?
2160
2161[3:30] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: What are your thoughts on that?
2162
2163[3:30] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he moves back to sit down*
2164
2165[3:30] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "As a social or individual preception?"
2166
2167[3:30] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Individual.
2168
2169[3:31] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is irrelevant and inefficient."
2170
2171[3:32] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Maybe for some species.
2172
2173[3:34] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I am aware of other individuals different view of it. I have an associate who is obsessed with it. If it assists them in efficiently perform their duties without conseuqnces, it is within the >
2174
2175[3:34] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: > concept of individua lfreedom and preferences to persue such."
2176
2177[3:35] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: We have entire temples dedicated to it, atleast amonst those who still worship venus.
2178
2179[3:35] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And Apollo.
2180
2181[3:35] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is my assessment man yfederation species worship it without a temple."
2182
2183[3:36] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Likely, Trill as well seem quite adept and worshiping absent temple.
2184
2185[3:36] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Correct."
2186
2187[3:37] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: *Takes a sip of her new cup, placing her free hand on ehr PADD for seven seconds*
2188
2189[3:38] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I think its essential.
2190
2191[3:38] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Perhaps not the continuaing act of it. But the promise of it.
2192
2193[3:38] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Explain."
2194
2195[3:38] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Its closeness, its collectiveness.
2196
2197[3:39] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And there are different levels of it. Intimacy can be the comfrting embrace ofa good friend. Or the plasureable embrace of a lover's thighs.
2198
2199[3:40] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: To exist without, it alienates us from the fundamental truth that we are not alone.
2200
2201[3:41] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "The theory has some merit."
2202
2203[3:42] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Besides you are far to attractive to completely forgo intimacy, the though would bring tears to Venus's eyes.
2204
2205[3:42] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he chuckles a little*
2206
2207[3:43] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I hold no interest of such. My predecesor may have. Like much, we are different."
2208
2209[3:43] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: No interest as of yet, on subject's such as these its best not to speak in absolutes.
2210
2211[3:44] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Otherwise i would have an 18 year old bride who I would rarely see.
2212
2213[3:45] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is possible, That is one change I prefere not to devolve."
2214
2215[3:46] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *laughs* Perhaps its not devolution.
2216
2217[3:46] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Subjective to individual ideals."
2218
2219[3:47] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: As is most things.
2220
2221[3:47] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *rubs his forhead*
2222
2223[3:48] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I fail to see the efficient benefit in close intimacy. To my observation is lowers the individuals ability of clarity."
2224
2225[3:49] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Despite current circumstances, i think it can raise it as well. Giving a sense of purpose. Of that's intimacy to play out love. That which is solely for the pursuit of pleasure? You likley have moved>
2226
2227[3:49] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: beyond.
2228
2229[3:50] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "There is efficient purpose without such distraction."
2230
2231[3:51] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Often yes.
2232
2233[3:52] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I prefere work."
2234
2235[3:52] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And yet, I do remember a certain touched witnessed many nights ago in the citadel bar. When tongue fell to poetry.
2236
2237[3:52] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Explain?"
2238
2239[3:53] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: When I spoke to anne, quoting from the bard I believe. Or perhaps of my own creation, you hand it graced and massaged your neck on the dermal markings.
2240
2241[3:53] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: The signficance of that act, only recently learned prior to that time.
2242
2243[3:54] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Correct."
2244
2245[3:56] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: So if the act was done, inspired by flourished tongue, it stands to reason that you are not as immune to the ineffciencys of longing intimacy as you appear.
2246
2247[3:57] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "The inquiery presented prior was if I was able to experience pleasure, my analysis was ongoing to non artificially induced pleasure. The poem efficiently highlighted a fact, Which I examined."
2248
2249[3:58] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "There was little to do with intimacy in it."
2250
2251[3:58] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: So it was purely a scientific experiement?
2252
2253[3:59] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It failed to messure to preciseness of science. It was an self diagnosis."
2254
2255[4:00] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Ah yes because it must be observable.
2256
2257[4:01] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "A scientific experiment tends ot nessesitate an greater study, an mroe detailed evaluation, experiment premise, expected outcomes, comparision to othe results, an outcoem analysis, conclusions and>
2258
2259[4:01] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: > done within means of scientific acceptable permise for the experimetn to be repeateble. A self diagnostic is a self diagnostic."
2260
2261[4:02] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And what were the results of the diagnostic?
2262
2263[4:03] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I retain the characteristic zones of sensitivity of species 5721."
2264
2265[4:05] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he sips his cup* If you retain them they are a part of you, seeing them to stimulation is therefore not ineffecient at all from time to time. Pleasure can result in the release of tension, endorphins
2266
2267[4:06] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: a multitude of different benefits.
2268
2269[4:06] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Perhaps that is why anne saw herself on my cock and tongue occupied rather than speak to me.
2270
2271[4:07] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "There are efficient holoprograms for massage."
2272
2273[4:07] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: They are not the same as another giving of themselve to you.
2274
2275[4:07] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Massage in particullar is a form intimacy that can be shared without sexuality.
2276
2277[4:08] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It serves to relieve muscle tension."
2278
2279[4:08] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he cracks his neck invulntarily*
2280
2281[4:09] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "At de-assimilation we where provided massage."
2282
2283[4:09] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: To stimulate muscle regeneration correct?
2284
2285[4:09] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: and Ease pain?
2286
2287[4:10] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "The alledged list of effects where long."
2288
2289[4:10] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: What were the experienced ones?
2290
2291[4:11] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Accurate ability to precieve muscle stimuli, relaxed muscles. mroe efficient bloodflow."
2292
2293[4:12] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Did you give massage, or simply receive?
2294
2295[4:12] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Recieve."
2296
2297[4:12] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Anne is quite skilled in the art.
2298
2299[4:13] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Often falling to its application without prompting.
2300
2301[4:13] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Only recently have I realized how fortunate that was.
2302
2303[4:16] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he sips his wine*
2304
2305[4:17] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "You may access the massage program I was provided."
2306
2307[4:17] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Was it provided to you by Dr Delancey.
2308
2309[4:17] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Doctor Moon."
2310
2311[4:18] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Ah, perhaps I will. Atleast before I roll with Petty Officer Cristol again. She is suprising skilled.
2312
2313[4:18] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Skilled at?"
2314
2315[4:19] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Grappling.
2316
2317[4:19] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Understood."
2318
2319[4:20] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I have a curiosity.
2320
2321[4:21] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Proceed."
2322
2323[4:21] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: You confirmed you could feel pleasure. Did you see that diagnostic to completion?
2324
2325[4:22] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I examined the sesetivity of hte side of my neck. Further information was irrelevant."
2326
2327[4:22] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Are you certain?
2328
2329[4:23] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Yes."
2330
2331[4:23] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Posit the hypothetical, beginning with the observation Intimacy is important to interpersonal relationships.
2332
2333[4:24] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Pleasure from intimacy providing the feedback necessary to relay such things nonverbally in not nontelepathic species.
2334
2335[4:25] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Would it not stand to reason then, to ensure full functionality of these systems, In the event however unlikely that they be needed for interpersonal relationship?
2336
2337[4:25] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I have no intent to need to express intimate non verbalized communication beyond simpler froms which arms sufficies efficiently."
2338
2339[4:26] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And I rarely have intent to fire tricrobalt device into the atmosphere of a planet and yet i check targeting sensors almost hourly.
2340
2341[4:26] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is of such low priority that they are deemed not worthy of time before Priority 1, 2, 3, 4 issues are resolved, and issue category 5 has began investigation."
2342
2343[4:27] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: What falls into category five?
2344
2345[4:27] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Iris."
2346
2347[4:28] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Iris?
2348
2349[4:29] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "The area of the eye which greant individuals an eye colour."
2350
2351[4:31] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: You mean choosing an Eye color?
2352
2353[4:31] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is more ocmplicated then such."
2354
2355[4:31] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Why must you solve category 5 before pursuing intimacy?
2356
2357[4:32] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is of higher value to me."
2358
2359[4:34] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *nods* Out of curiousity. Why? I would think they stand independent. Chosing an eye replacement and color, is changing your appearance and who you are. Just as changing your skin or hair color would >
2360
2361[4:35] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: be. Intimacy is also dependent on other people. There those that would accept you as you are now. Absent thought to what you could look like.
2362
2363[4:35] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Nothing on category five is of my own interest. It is a stage within the deassimilation process."
2364
2365[4:37] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: What are 1 through four then? I am unfamiliar with this process.
2366
2367[4:38] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Independeant thought, accepteance of individuality, Nonconnected operation, self operation, self determination. The full list is long."
2368
2369[4:39] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: What does non connected operation mean?
2370
2371[4:40] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Being alone."
2372
2373[4:40] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: And that is not self operation?
2374
2375[4:41] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "The differ, Self operation is more advanced. A step further."
2376
2377[4:42] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Where would you assess you are on this path?
2378
2379[4:43] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "I would not be an officer if I was passed a significant part of core deassimilation."
2380
2381[4:44] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: What do you mean? You do not wish to serve in starfleet?
2382
2383[4:45] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "To be permitted to serve in starfleet, The ex-drone needs to efficiently passed enough of the deassimilation process to be cleared for duty."
2384
2385[4:47] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: But you said you would not be an officer if you had passed a significant part. Is being being cleared for duty not very far along?
2386
2387[4:49] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Error in formulation, I would not be an officer. Less so a strategic operations officer, Where I not sufficiently progressed. This is also my final mantadtory part, After which, if passed, I am >
2388
2389[4:50] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: > deemed entierly within juridical rights of my self. and are completely freed from the nessesary protocols I now adhere to in terms of evaluation."
2390
2391[4:50] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Ah, I have understanding now.
2392
2393[4:51] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: So choosing things like Eye color is the last step for you are free of those?
2394
2395[4:51] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "No..."
2396
2397[4:52] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *tilts his head*
2398
2399[4:52] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Eye colorus are irrelevant. Some drones can easier have synthesised, or artificial eyes, others it is difficult for. It is however cosmetic only."
2400
2401[4:53] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "Eyecolour is irrelevant to me. My current optical sensors are efficient. Eyecolour is of greater importeance and priority then ability to persue intimate relationships."
2402
2403[4:53] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: I see.
2404
2405[4:54] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: Then perhaps for now I envy you./
2406
2407[4:54] [DOIC5] Aquila@Captain_Riens: *he smiled faintly*
2408
2409[4:55] [DOIC5] Zalithya Vaylith@Illuice: "It is efficient."
