Captain's Log, Stardate 64732.64 (09/26/2387,
10:00 hours) |
| 21:02 |
CaptMcCloud |
With the Multawny, and her crew, safely back at
Pasteur Station, we have resumed patrol of the Firegon
borders. |
| 21:02 |
CaptMcCloud |
Currently, Operation Pushback has been reduced
to three ships. The Persephone, the Dauntless and us (the
Eagle). |
| 21:03 |
CaptMcCloud |
The other ships have been recalled by Command
for other assignments. |
| 21:04 |
CaptMcCloud |
This doesn't seem to be a problem. The Firegon
patrols have been strangely missing, since we have recovered
the Multawny. I think we have shown them a side of Starfleet
they weren't expecting. |
| 21:04 |
CaptMcCloud |
At least I hope so. |
| 21:04 |

Moonshadows |
TAC>[HELM]
Sorry... I was thinking of my roommate at Academy, an Orion
girl raised in the Pens... I sang it for no other reason
than to annoy her... very cublike of me |

the hourly diagnostic on her systems:: |

| 21:23 |
Lt_Hart |
CENG
>[ TAC ] So, tell me, Lt. What made you join Starfleet?
Threre certainly aren't many of your people iriding around
in starships. |
| 21:24 |
LtCmdrVanik |
HELM
>[ TAC ] (seeings he is senior officer) Very good, Lt.
Keep scanning. |
| 21:25 |
Cdr_Jorel |
xo
>[ co ] I will Captain |
| 21:25 |
CaptMcCloud |
CO >[ XO ] Okay! So.. let's get back to
doing what we do best. |
| 21:25 |
Moonshadows |
TAC>[CENG]
I had met Star Fleet personnel at their camp near Sretalles,
we were recruited to help them move... we migrate... and I
was bitten by the urge to tread the star Path, meet new
peoples... So I took the subspace entry exam and apptitude
test |
| 21:27 |
Cdr_Jorel |
xo
>[ co ] After you Captain |
| 21:27 |
Lt_Hart |
CENG>
:: nods:: [TAC] Now, you use "to" in your name.... Moonshadows
to Enien. What does that mean? |
| 21:27 |
Moonshadows |
Tac>[CENG]
Of course, I had to travel to Earth on the tug, Fawkes... a
change from out tent village |
| 21:27 |
CaptMcCloud |
CO> ::nods and heads back out to the
bridge:: |
| 21:28 |

| 21:28 |
Cdr_Jorel |
xo>
::returns to the bridge:: |
| 21:29 |
Moonshadows |
TAC>[CENG=]
The "to" is to say where we take Festival. I am born to
Ennien, and chosen to Ennien... meaning I chose to Ennien
when I picked my adult name, they say once to Ennien is bad
enough, twice to Ennien is a little crazy ::Tail loops:: |
| 21:29 |
LtjgBanning |
SCI>
[CO] Captain, I am picking up an anamolous energy signature
on the other side of Firegon space. |
| 21:30 |
Moonshadows |
TAC>[CO]
Hourly systems check complete, Tac is Optimal.. Space clear
on my sensors sir |
| 21:31 |
Lt_Hart |
CENG
>[ TAC ] ::chuckles, but not sure why, just seemed like a
good place to chuckle:: How would you apply that to us, on
this ship? |
| 21:31 |
CaptMcCloud |
CO> :: crosses to the science console::
[SCI] Firegon related, Lt.? |
| 21:32 |
Moonshadows |
TAC>[CENG]
I would say, perhaps, to Star Fleet, to Eagle, or to your
homeworld |
| 21:32 |
LtjgBanning |
SCI>
[CO] Negative, sir. Looks to be a spacial occurence. |
| 21:33 |
Moonshadows |
TAC>;;Turns
to the CO:: [CO] No Firegon activity in reach of Tactical
sensors sir... Science would have a better view |
| 21:33 |
Cdr_Jorel |

::looks around the bridge and then takes her seat for the
first time thinking that this is her home:: |
| 21:34 |
Lt_Hart |
CENG
>[ TAC ] ::nods again:: Now, when you say "take
Festival." What is your "festival?" |
| 21:34 |
CaptMcCloud |
CO >[ SCI ] I'm guessing you want to take a
closer look, Lt.? |
| 21:35 |
LtjgBanning |
SCI>
[CO] Aye, sir. I would. |
| 21:36 |
Moonshadows |
TAC>[CENG]
Great feasts, we dance in large groups, bards get together,
exchange songs, cubs are shown off... five days of too MUCH
food! ::Sadly thinks she will not be home for Festival
again:: |
| 21:36 |
Cdr_Jorel |
xo
>[ sci ] Banning, could you send the readings to my PADD? |
| 21:36 |
LtjgBanning |
SCI>
[CO] But the quickest way to it, sir, would be through
Firegon space. |
| 21:37 |
CaptMcCloud |
CO
>[ SCI ] Show me the route. |
| 21:37 |
Moonshadows |
TAC>::At
the words "through Firegon space" she runs another weapons
check:: |
| 21:37 |
LtjgBanning |
SCI>
:: sends the readings to the XO's PADD, then brings it up on
his screen to show the captain.:: |
| 21:38 |
Lt_Hart |
CENG
>[ TAC ] ::Nods:: sounds like our own parties. |

CaptMcCloud |

that. Send the coordinates to OPS and HELM. |

LtjgBanning |
SCI>
Aye, sir. : :sends the coordinates:: |
