Sal Taybrim Posted February 22, 2021 Posted February 22, 2021 Quote The momentary peace of simply enjoying the atmosphere was about to be shoved aside and replaced with a near-famous Max-hug as he trundled his way through the crowd, finding that he wa gradually circling Sal and yet never seeming to get any closer to congratulate his commanding offer and friend. Neither it seemed, was he managing to get close enough to assault one Captain Whittaker with a rapid tacklehug off the port bow. Instead, he caught sight of another face through the mingling bodies and picked up his pace a little. With a respectful nod and a greeting, he glided around Admiral Hauke before throwing his arms out as he drew close to his target. Another red-headed Commodore. Maxwell: Incoming! Think fast! Beware the stealth-hug 1 Quote
Sal Taybrim Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 what an incredible yet creepy mental picture of an impending conflict: Quote A knot formed in Tatash’s stomach. Those ships were old, it would be like Starfleet digging the old Constitution classes out and strapping some new guns to them before throwing them into the front. Tatash would be more inclined to just call them target practice. Quote
Sal Taybrim Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 ((I just love the interaction and reactions here ❤️)) Taybrim: Janul alone is not enough to ensure full attendance. But… we can force that hand. ::he paused and offered gravely.:: I am going with him. There was a clatter as a PADD hit the floor, a reaction that was entirely justified as the CO of the station proudly announced they were ready to go careening into the afterlife. DeVeau: I’m sorry...come again? McLaren: The Commodore will be going with Janul. Tatash couldn’t help but chuckle, it was the sheer insanity of the situation, mixed with somehow the total lack of surprise in the Commodores course of action that was actually quite amusing. Tatash: Classic. 2 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 Quote Borq: The time is irrelevant. A Klingon is never late. Nor are they early. We arrive precisely when we mean to. So Klingons are Wizards? 🤔 2 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 Quote Meeks: That is all true, and Ops has been tasked with protecting the Federation’s interests. Our team is one component of this task, and each of you have been shoulder tapped because of your specific skills. Ensign Andrews, you are a skilled and motivated investigator as well as a tactician; Ensign Drevas, you have shown qualities as a Tactical Officer that will be valuable in our mission; and Borq… well… is Borq. All you need is Borq. Borq is all you need. 2 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted March 6, 2021 Posted March 6, 2021 Quote Borq: Aye, Prepare for the hammer time. Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 Quote From the narrative of Ishreth Dal: He might have answered back ‘call me Ishreth’ ... So I find this amusing because we had our voice chat yesterday and I was talking about when I read Moby [...]. For those who don't know, the very first line in the book is "Call me Ishmael.". So not only was this line used, but the names are very close in spelling. 😄 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Quote From the narrative of Ashley Yael: He was a psychologist for a reason… typically he used his powers for *good* though. Let's hope it stays that way! 1 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted March 21, 2021 Posted March 21, 2021 Quote Zel bit his bottom lip, trying to not laugh. Whatever in there was likely deader than dead and probably greasy and putrid. The biggest danger was the smell. Unless you licked it. Don’t lick it. Zel: Sensors read clear. There’s nothing alive in there. Just don’t lick it. DO NOT LICK IT 1 1 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted March 21, 2021 Posted March 21, 2021 Quote Said in a perfectly dry tone that indicated ‘I need to be a lot more drunk to tell you the tale of where I was that smelled worse than this.’ Aldeberan whiskey would do the trick. Three would be enough. Maybe even two. It used to be five, but as Zel aged he found that drinking gets you killed and stopped drinking unless he felt extremely safe, which was rare. And then he joined Starfleet and found the incredible pleasures of a decent bed, all the food he could care to eat (fresh eggs!) and tubs of heat far outweighed getting drunk so he drank even less. He would be a very cheap date if he ever dated. Romance gets you killed. The question is, what does NOT get you killed? Besides eggs? Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted March 21, 2021 Posted March 21, 2021 Quote Zel: We can purge, but you have to put up with it for long enough to clear the sensor range of the Lor’Vath. No need in alerting House Duras that a cloaked warbird launched from a Starfleet Starbase because we farted a bunch of mummified escaped dinner remains into space. This just about killed me. Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted March 23, 2021 Posted March 23, 2021 Quote From the narrative of Blackwell: Don’t Lick It. Wisdom for the Ages from Zel. So wise. Quote
Sal Taybrim Posted March 24, 2021 Posted March 24, 2021 Courtesy of Prudence Blackwell... words to live by: Quote She paused as the conversation shifted - less poultry, more business. 1 Quote
Sal Taybrim Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 A brilliant little passage into the IDIC variety of species in the galaxy: Quote Qo’noS. Tatash had never visited it before, but the sudden warmth and hint of moisture in the air washed over him like a soothing blanket. Even with the slight hint of rotting meat in the air the whole place felt like home. A little uncomfortable by human standards, but it was to Tatash what Risa was to them. Perfect. 1 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 Quote He only hoped they also trusted him. Because who was Ishreth Dal? He had been on Ops for seven years now, but most knew him as ‘that guy who almost caused a diplomatic incident when the targ got into the Bajoran Temple reflection pool.’ Or perhaps ‘that guy we leave in command of the station when we go somewhere.’ You know. That guy. 1 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 Quote Maxwell: Well, I don't ::breath.:: like tae brag, but ::breath.:: I'm kindae a big deal.... Yes, Max. Yes you are. 1 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 Quote Zel Rohan gave a small nod of assent towards the Caitian. He was trying not to watch her tail, it was hypnotic and he could not afford to be distracted. And literally it was her tail, the swishy, swishy appendage, not any euphemism. Zel hardly thought of anyone romantically. Maybe he hadn’t met the right person. Maybe he simply wasn’t a romantic sort, but his brain wasn;t wired to thjink that way. Still, the way that tail moved was… Focus, Zel. Focus. I think I may have found Zel's weakness. Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 Quote Andrews: So souvenir stands are out. I was really hoping for a "I almost got ventilated on Qo'Nos" shirt. Well, maybe on the return trip. Really need to find something to bring home to the kiddos. 1 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 Quote Andrews: So what do you guys play as kids? Hide and Go-Insult-My-Honor? I think Andrews is part Klingon. 2 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 Quote From the Narrative of Vraj: She grimaced, and put a hand to her face, dragging it down in exasperation. She was highly relieved that she knew they were well out of the hearing range of any guards or patrol or enemies, otherwise they would have a horde of cultists on them. Then again, the idea of ripping out someone’s throat and displaying it over them as they died was starting to sound very attractive. I feel really sorry for her at this moment. 😄 Quote
Ashley Yael Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 Quote Andrews: Market district? So maybe I can get that souvenir t-shirt after all. Iz was pretty sure that the wisecracks were going to get old really fast, but they were keeping his brain from locking up, so he figured he'd let them slip out until somebody told him firmly to shut up. Keep'em coming, Iz! 😆 1 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted April 13, 2021 Posted April 13, 2021 Quote Zel: We’re gonna have to check the list and make sure we pick our targets right. Or get us some fake caterers licenses on the quick. (a few lines later) His drifter senses were on high alert, looking for a way to sneak into the High Council building, no easy feat. But if they could figure out the caterer or who was providing the feasting food for the end of the trial they might have an in. I should have known Jamie would work the comment about caterers into a sim. Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Quote They were an oddball pair which German preferred, being that most scientists within Starfleet were rather quirky. It was as if it were a silent prerequisite to graduate from the Academy. Hey! Now wait a second! 😄 1 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Quote There was something to be said about having to make completely new plans on the fly - Rue wasn’t quite sure what that was, but she was certain it started with an explicative. This made me chuckle. 1 Quote
