Rank/Name: Cynan Mandrake. Locations: USS Thesipiae; Conference Room. Timeframe: After all recent posts. Subject: The cause and the solution to all of life's problems. No sooner had Sam spoken the Conference doors swished open and in staggered the vagabond Cynan Mandrake, a security detail close behind. "Howdy! Now aren't you all a sight for sore eyes. Anyone fancy a drink?" he said brashly, as he slumped down into a chair next to Nick and slammed a bottle of the finest Scotch on the table, uncorked. "Captain! He'd just come aboard before we left Earth orbit and pushed past us. We tried too.." a member of the security detail tried to explain. "It's alright right Ensign." Kent replied calmly, giving them the nod to leave. "So what'd I miss?" Cynan continued as if it was business as usual. "Anything worth dying for?" OoC: Yeah well, I couldn't resist a more in-character start to the festivities :) Glad to hear from you all. Anyone still out there sitting on the fence, come and jump on in! _____________________________________________________________ USS Vanguard: http://www.ncv80221.net/default.htm Vanguard Archives: //www.freelists.org/archives/ncv80221 FreeLists: //www.freelists.org Trying to contact the USS Vanguard managers?
