"That's supposed to be on fire" - And other stuff you can hear in the USS Thor

[Alieth 306]

 

 

Paraphrasing our first officer and since we didn't have a quotes thread, let's start one!

 

From "Minefield, both metaphorical and literal"

 

Quote

From that point, the minefield decided that it hated them

Allegedly Lia Rouiancet, in fact @Tony, aka Kells

 

You've KILLED me with that, Skipper XD

[Alora DeVeau 551]

Our Second officer.  😄

 

Quote

Rouiancet: =/\= That's a lot of mines. =/\=

 

Henderson: =/\= That’s not very reassuring. =/\=

 

Garcia: =/\= Just gotta be mine-full, that’s all. =/\=

 

[Alieth 306]

Because it needs to be stressed again due I've laughed more with this than I really should

Teller:  Were those stun grenades or photon grenades?  

 

Greaves:  Dear god! Sir! Photon! They're photon grenades!

 

Teller:  Dar, COVER NOW!

Alieth: The Hippocratic Oath compels us to do no harm. However, it does not say a word about causing pain. And on certain occasions a little discomfort is useful to be aware of one's own body's requirements. ::Looking at the patient sideways:: Or it will remind you that you should not put yourself in foolish ways that could potentially irritate your doctor.

Do NOT mess with Alieth!  She's no joke! LOL!

[Wes Greaves 135]

These are the jokes I come here for. I almost spit out my coffee at the unexpected reference @Geoffrey Teller

 

Quote

Katsim: Batbird stew and mapa bread.  

 

Geoff's eyebrows went up a little at the name 'batbird,' and in the back of his mind a forgotten lyric from his childhood began repeating ceaselessly.  oO NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA batbird! Oo

Sirok: You are the doctors, if I have to go through additional checks to test my memory I will do so. So far all the techniques I have used to make it work to its fullest capacity have worked. It was partly because of them that I got the best engineering grades in my Starfleet class. So far my condition has only caused disturbances in my personal life, but not in my professional life.

Deena made a small noise best described as a snort.

Quen: Yup - you're getting a test all right.

MacKenzie: ::to the others:: It’s cute that he thinks he has a choice.

Quen: Mmn - it's adorable, isn't it?

Sirok, the second cutest Vulcan on the Thor!

Sirok: There is always a choice Doctor MacKenzie. You just have to know and assume the consequences. :: Sirok could refuse recognition, but it would possibly mean losing his position as a Starfleet officer. ::

Quen: Thor almost blows up every month anyway without you adding to it.

Ooooo, they're calling you out, @Geoffrey Teller!

The tiny Vulcan folded her arms and looked at her former boss and her colleague before she spoke once more.

 

Alieth: I have no doubt that you are aware that you are putting your personal preferences above the interests of the crew as a whole. And is that not only against Surak's teachings, but illogical by definition?

Sirok got ROASTED!

Sirok: I start to decipher the message. From the beginning and the end it seems that it could be a ship or a space installation called... :: The Vulcan had to pause and confirmed that the translation was correct :: The Endless Golden Penetrator.* Then I think they refer to a series of damages in different systems, but none that I can fully understand. Damage to the initiating course improvement system, damage to the adjustment system for vital enjoyment... The only one I can understand is the breach in the external protection and safeguard system, which, barring error, should be a breach in the hull.

the "adjustment system for vital enjoyment" is my new fav part of a starship EVER

Saulan: Teleportation? That is impossible, according to the Ughadez law a particle cannot be converted into data to be reintegrated. It has only been seen in interactive entertainment stories, without any scientific basis. And those are things for children or people who live with their mothers.

This just made me laugh.

While his patient could not help but observe the arrival of what he thought were more technical, due to the color of his flosflus. Although one of them had very, very short flosflus, perhaps he had some sort of physical problem. Part of a corporate social responsibility campaign?

Miguel, you're killing me here.

Geoff watched the creatures carefully.  Their body structure was fascinating, greatly different from many of the races he'd seen in the past.  It certainly gave weight to the idea that these people had somehow developed in isolation, here within the nebula. They conversed quietly but intensely for a few moments, then turned back to his team.  As First Contacts go, he was already doing better than the poor idiot that first ran into the Klingons.  

Aim high, Geoffrey.  Aim high.

Brodie smiled to himself. An absurd thought of how the kilt came into being - never being caught with one’s pants down.

@Alex Brodie, I need the story on this!

It was hard to focus on extracting the data points to feed the algorithm assessing the Penetrator’s structural integrity while Commander Gacia nattered away to Sickbay on the comm behind him.

 

Roman lent in further. His face was now inches away from the console monitor. 

 

Then, the skriking klaxon of yellow alert sent Roman jolting forward.

 

With the cuff of his jumper, he wiped away the greasy nostril print from the glossy console display -- he hoped those on the bridge had been too busy to see how the smudge got there.

This made me laugh!

I wasn't prepared for Zet's hell @Sirok 🤣

 

Quote

The Zet, pressed a couple of buttons and from her seat appeared strong straps resembling the seatbelt of a racing car. Saulan knew that if they survived and Anroc found out that they had abandoned ship, he would seek to torture them physically, emotionally and financially for eternity.
