((Blacktower, Somewhere))
Fatimid: What are the names of your parents?!
Tandu: Yessssss.
::Sabek smiled just a little. If these two wanted to know his parents’ names, he would gladly volunteer them. Perhaps they would come to get him and take him home, or at least somewhere safe, like Grandpa’s quarters.::
Sabek: LCMD’s Reed and Solok. Those are my parents.
Greekle: RESPONSE
::Sabek was wondering why Belleau was pouting instead of proffering the requested information. Did she not wish to see her parents?::
Fatimid: It would be wise of you to reveal the name of your parents, child.
Tandu: Yesss. Yesss. Very wise.
Dioron: I do not answer to you. You're not my parents!
Fatimid: No, we are not your parents. However, we are…
Tandu: operatives in this place, in a classified place where children are not allowed. Do you have any idea what they would do to you if you saw what we were working on?
::Tandu indicated a massive set of holographic screens.::
Fatimid: You idiot! Turn them off! Turn them off!
Tandu: You are an idiot, too. You didn’t think of it either!
::Sabek chuckled, seeing he two scuttle and lumber about as though they had forgotten where the controls were, as though they could not simply say, “Computer, deactivate” and the computer would comply.::
Sabek: Perhaps you might request a deactivation from the computer?
Tandu: Of course. Of course.
Fatimid: Bright boy. Computer, cease … task.
::The screens blanked, but they remained powered.::
Computer: State your next task.
Tandu: There IS no next task, you circuit-haired freak!
Fatimid: Don’t get angry with the computer, Tandu. It’s just a machine.
Sabek: Perhaps if you request that the computer deactivate?
Tandu: Stupid child, as though I don’t know how to work my own equipment!
Fatimid: Computer, deactivate.
::As simple as that, the screens disappeared, the only evidence they’d ever been there the remaining holographic emitters. This only seemed to make Tandu angrier, and Sabek began to wonder how creatures this foolish were allowed in a place that was “classified” particularly given the algorithms he’d seen displayed. Though he must admit, he was not quite up to that level of mathematics. Perhaps he was mistaken in their importance.::
Tandu: Fine, fine! Whatever. ::Mimicking:: Computer, deactivate.
Computer: The requested task has already been completed.
Tandu: Oh, shut up! ::Tandu turned towards Belleau and shook four little limbs in her direction.:: What are your parents names?!
::Belleau seemed only to become angrier, holding her hands up in front of her.::
Dioron: You come near me and I'll squash you like the bugs you are!
Sabek: Belleau, they won’t hurt us. ::Because they seemed quite incapable of the task:: There are cameras documenting everything they do. ::Sabek pointed at the miniscule tech, houses in lighting fixtures, the walls, the floor, even in the leaf of a potted tree.::
Tandu: Did you know we were being watched, Fatimid?
Fatimid: Uh … of course. ::Fatimid’s entire insectoid body sagged. The creature turned to Belleau.:: Just tell us your parents’ names.
Dioron: Fine. ::She crossed her arms again.:: My parents are Lieutenant Colonel Dioron Allarie and Major Charles Dioron. So what are you going to do about it?
Sabek: I believe they will now contact our parents.
Tandu: Of course we are going to contact your parents!
Belleau/Greekle: response
Fatimid: Yes. Yes, we must, of course. Children are not allowed in Blacktower. Many adults are not allowed in Blacktower. It is classified.
Tandu: Stop saying that! Oh, legs, legs, legs!!! We are going to be in so much trouble. If we contact their parents now, after all you’ve said, what do you think will happen to us?
Fatimid: I know, I know, Tandu. But like the child said, we are being watched anyway.
Tandu: Fine, then call. ::The little crystalline creature flopped down onto her belly, her angular, shining legs sprawled out all around her.::
Fatimid: Fine. Uh … what did you say your parents’ names were, ::He pointed at Sabek.:: pointy-eared child.
Sabek: LCMD’s Reed and Solok.
Fatimid: ::Activating comm..:: =/\= Fat--::He stopped at Tandu’s hiss.:: Uh, classifi-- ::Once again, Fatimid stopped.:: Personnel in non-disclosed tower ::He ignored the limbs Tandu placed over her sixteen sparkling eyes.:: to LCMD Reed or LCMD Solok. =/\=
Solok: =/\= response =/\=
Fatimid: =/\= We have your child. If you want it back, meet us in the a … the a …
Tandu: The Dungeon. Mundok’s!
::Sabek had only heard about the Dungeon. He’d never been there. He knew it wasn’t entirely terrible, but the mention of Mundok’s bar made him shiver.::
Fatimid: … Mundok’s Bar. Come alone, and no funny business. =/\=
Solok: =/\= response =/\=
Fatimid: =/\= What? Nevermind. Wait. Don’t come alone. Bring the parents of ::Aside to the children.:: What are your names?
Greekle/Belleau: responses
Fatimid: Belleau and Greekle. Immediately. That means now! =/\=
Tandu: You made it sound like a kidnapping!
Fatimid: He sounds busy.
Sabek: My father is the chief medical officer. He is always busy.
Belleau/Greekle: responses
::Sabek, for the first time, felt shame over the tears that [...]led in his eyes. Without his mother to tell him that it was ok to cry, the words of his grandfather and father resonated more strongly within his core, and as he was still too young to have mastered emotion, he could not help the pitfalls of them. Right then, he wished that his mother was better, and that she was the one coming to get him.::
::Fatimid scooted closer to Tandu as he perused the children. Tandu scooted away and skittered over to a small, unremarkable console near the floor and keyed in something. Then she grabbed something he did not recognize, placed it on the floor in front of the group and flicked it once with the tip of her limb. It hummed to life, and a moment later, they were among the seedier element of the station. They were right outside Mundok's, which was next to a shop that looked like it had a lot of "junk", as his mother called it, in the window. Though his gaze was drawn for more than a second by something that didn't look like junk at all. It was pretty. His attention was ripped away by an unearthly howl that could be heard from somewhere that was not far enough away. At first, Sabek thought it might be just his exceptional hearing that picked up the terrifying sound, but he could see that the other four heard it, as well.::
Greekle/Belleau: responses
Sabek: If I may clarify … they will not hurt us intentionally.
Fatimid: (crouching low) What is that noise?

(( Thomas O'Riley's Ranch, Earth ))
::The last time Quinn had set foot on a planet, it had been Vulcan and it had been a very long time ago. That had been for shore leave, too, but it had been anything but relaxing; she had spent half of her time learning to rebuild her mental barriers after a bunch of telepathic aliens had forcibly awakened her previously suppressed empathic abilities. Then, to add a bitter cherry on top, she had been chased around some deserted ruins by a murderous, disruptor-wielding assailant who had been convinced she was someone else. All in all, it had been more restful to get back to work and it was fair to say she had somewhat higher hopes for this go round.
::She had intended to bring Rhys with her, but his nanny had insisted otherwise. There would be plenty of time during leave for her time spend time with him, Lucy had argued, and she needed a chance to unwind on her own. So here she was, wandering down a sun-baked dirt road in Mexico by herself.
::Speaking of being by herself, Quinn hadn't decided how she felt about her session with the counsellor. Somehow, she'd ended up spending most of the conversation dwelling on her love life - or lack thereof - but it was only one piece of the puzzle. It wasn't that she didn't have a partner, it was that she didn't have *anyone*. Which felt like a heartless thing to think, given she was strolling toward Pedro's home, but there it was. She liked him well enough and while she would probably trust him with her life... She wasn't so sure about her secrets.
::She shoved her hands into her pockets, having opted for casual attire for the Ramirez bash; sneakers, jeans and a t-shirt bearing a logo any nerd would be proud of. Her hair was up in it's usual ponytail, the Mexican climate being far too hot to wear it loose. Her attire didn't do much to make her feel like the command officer she was supposed to be, but she did feel a bit more human and besides, she wasn't here as the First Officer of a Federation starship. This was an off-duty get-together, not an official function. She wanted to blend in, not stick out.
::As she approached the homestead, a dog came running up toward her. After an experimental bark and some investigative sniffs, the canine allowed her to hunker down and make a small fuss over it. She'd had a dog before she joined Starfleet, a goofy yellow Labrador she had called Newton, but she had been forced to leave him with her father when she had been posted to the Ithassa region. Newton was gone now, having passed away from old age when she had been serving aboard the Independence. ::
RANCHER:
::Quinn gave the dog a last pat on the head before she stood up, smiling sheepishly. ::
REYNOLDS: Sorry. Hi. I know I'm a little early, but I'm here for the barbecue?
RANCHER:
REYNOLDS: Oh - Quinn Reynolds. I'm, um... Well, I serve with Pedro on the Eagle.

I've just posted a sim to the competition now - didn't realise until afterwards that it was past the deadline for Round 1.
Will this be automatically entered into Round 2 when that begins?
Any sims posted from Monday, January 18, 2010 until the end deadline will be counted for Round 2. I'll get Round 1 cleared out as soon as I can figure out what has happened to my Subforums for 2010.

Only one sim was disqualified because it was from July 2009. Due to the fact that there were less than 10 remaining sims, they are all eligible to compete in this round of voting. This round of voting only qualifies one sim to be part of the final round of voting for the title of "Top Sim, 2010."

I have mistakenly posted a sim from July. Given that I've a high regard for the writer and that this contest seemed like a yearly thing (until of course I reviewed the rules and realized that it was not) I elected to post the sim. It is entitled "JP - Ensigns Ralik and Nickels - Impounding the Jalopy." If it is to be disqualified then I shall make no protest.
Kevin
Sorry Kevin. If I accepted a sim from way back in July of last year, over six months ago, we'd have to go back and accept all the sims from 2009 as well as the sims from 2010.
Ensigns Ralik and Nickels are great simmers. Be sure to submit something this next round from the current submission period
They definitely deserve a chance to compete for this year's award! -

::Helen was dazed by the sudden trust backward, away from her body, but not injured. In fact, it seemed as if she had sailed right through Korliath's biobed. Apparently, solid matter wouldn't be an issue for the time being, though she noticed she wasn't sinking through the floor.::
Beal: [[i wonder..]]
::Well, if she concentrated, she could dip her fingers below the tile.::
Beal: (Vulcan-like) [[Fascinating.]]
::Actually, what was most fascinating was the unprecedented clarity of thought she as experiencing. There was none of the usual brain fog, or heightened nerves, that Helen had come to accept as the everlasting remnants of her anxiety condition. They came and went at an expected pace, as her brain was conditioned react to stress.
::Now, this was certainly a stressful situation, but there was nothing cloudy about her mind. There was fear, yes, and even confusion, but she could move about her thoughts like one passing through a hedge maze with a highly detailed map. They were like topiaries she could pause in front of an study.
::Then again, she was a without the trouble of a physical brain for the time being, as the biobed monitors clearly indicated.
::Helen sat up. Suddenly, there was a hand on her shoulder. A physical hand. Even her shoulder felt more real under its touch. She turned to see Delinda Sharee by her side.::
Sharee: [[Are you okay? Oh, please god I hope you can hear me.]]
Beal: [[i can hear you! You can hear me?]]
::Helen jumped to her knees, realizing she could even see Delinda's lips moving. She placed both of her hands on Delinda's shoulders. They seemed more solid than anything in the room.::
Sharee: [[Yes, yes. No one else has been able to hear, or even see me though.]]
Beal: [[but this means...]]
Sharee: [[We are both stranded in ::beat:: whatever this is.]]
Beal: [[What is going on?]]
::They rose to their feet. Helen's eyes moved back to her body on the biobed.::
Beal: [[i was in the transporter room. I had just come back from the Klingon ship. My head started to ache and... I was speaking French. It was... like a stroke. And all of a sudden I was here.]] ::A few moments of silence.:: [[Where are you? I mean, where is your body?]]
Sharee: ::smile falling away, seriously:: [[My quarters. My head hit the corner of a table when I fell. I was bleeding badly. I came here trying to get some help.]]
Beal: [[We need to get someone there right away!]]
Sharee: [[but how?]]
Beal: ::Sighing, thoughtfully.:: [[i don't know how.]]
Sharee: [[i thought about typing out a message, but I don't think I could work the keyboard.]]
::Helen felt something tap her foot. First, she scowled, wondering if maybe she had imagined it. Slowly, she lowered her eyes.
::It was... a rabbit.::
Tsuro: [[i see you are worried about the fact that you are spirits. I think you should follow me. I have found something you need to see.]]
::Helen's jaw was hanging on its hinges. She couldn't think of a single thing worth saying.::
Sharee: [[Who are you?]]
Tsuro: ::somewhat offended:: [[i am Tsuro Magen'a, the Clever Hare! Surely you have heard of me?]]
Beal: [[...What?]]
Sharee: [[Tsuro Magen'a?]]
Beal: [[The Clever Hare?]]
Tsuro: [[No time! Come!]]
::The rabbit turned around and scampered at full speed through the sickbay door. Helen didn't move a muscle, aside from staring at Delinda.::
Beal: [[The Clever Hare? (Beat) Are we supposed to know who that is?]]
Sharee: [[i really don't know what to think at this point.]]
Beal: [[Well, we don't have any other options, do we?]]
::They began to follow him, quickening to a jog. Helen squeezed her eyes shut as they passed through the door. The rabbit was just ahead of them.::
Beal: [[i have to ask, Lt. Commander. Right now, are we speaking Basic, or French.]]
Sharee: [[basic? I think?]]
Beal: [[Je ne sais pas...]]
