Bryce Tagren-Quinn Posted May 15, 2023 Posted May 15, 2023 @Quinn Reynolds & @Jo Marshall Quote Thea: What are you doing here? Rix: Work-ing? It wasn't difficult to elongate the word as it flowed through his dry lips, through a drier mouth, and a voice box beset by the legions of sand, dust and strain. Cracking off the cap of the water bottle, Rix took a swig from it, and sighed in the singular pleasure of it, before passing it back to the pasty Tyrellian wrestling with her own liver. His throat clear, he continued. Rix: Ruggedly handsome, dashingly charming, and working on utilities in the area. Thea: You’re who I’ve been waiting—no, suffering—for? ::She pointed the water bottle toward him.:: This is all your fault. You could have at least brought coffee. Rix: This is entirely not my fault, I think you'll find it's your fault. "What happens after six shots, Rix? Let's find out, Rix." ::His poor imitation came at the cost of a cough and an ache springing like a fountain in the back of his head.:: Scientists truly have no boundaries. Thea: I don’t recall such reckless experimentation. ::She drowned her grin in another deep swig of water, soothing her dry throat.:: Doesn’t sound like me at all. 4

Popular Post Doz Finch Posted May 25, 2023 Popular Post Posted May 25, 2023 Quote Gnaxac went back to his work, and winced as something enginey dripped onto his face. He moved slightly so that it didn’t hit his eye, but it did dribble gloopily onto his cheek where it slid down and onto the floor. He was ever so tempted to stick a tongue out and taste it, but he knew it would be a bad idea. Gave me a chuckle! 😂 2 3
Bryce Tagren-Quinn Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 @Genkos Adea - made me smile and gave me a chuckle ❤️ Quote Gnaxac grinned mischievously as he swung behind the turret, his little legs dangling on either side. Gnaxac: Plus, why should you get all the fun? 3 1
Samira Neathler Posted May 29, 2023 Posted May 29, 2023 Quote Stealth failed when the old hinges screeched painfully. The Maquis flew in, weapons ready, to be greeted by a Bajoran with his hands raised. Man: You’re not Cardassian. Sevo: Neither are you. Stoyer: Last time I checked I wasn’t sh’Qynallahr: Pretty sure I’m still blue. @Cory Stoyer, @Ayiana Sevo and @Piravao sh'Qynallahr You guys had me laughing here. 😁 4
Popular Post Tahna Meru Posted June 1, 2023 Popular Post Posted June 1, 2023 Howdy Skarbekians! We're at the tail end of May and of our time in the Skarbek-verse, and what a time we've had! There's been death-defying stunts, awesome explosions, some utterly heartbreaking sims, and plenty of clever quips! So, let's crown April's funniest quote, shall we? A quick explanation for our newest crew member: every month, Kara (AKA our favorite angsty doctor, Tagren-Quinn) and I compile all the sim quotes that made us giggle, pick one for each player, and send out a poll for the ship to choose a Quote of the Month. Everyone is welcome to submit quotes, everyone gets to vote, and every month there's a winner's badge and bragging rights for our champion wordsmith. This month, the winner is... Seva: ...I guess we have a prisoner now. I've never had a prisoner before. Congrats, Seva! Winning your very first month on board is impressive! I can't wait to see what else you've got in store for us. Cheers, y'all! 2 3
Tahna Meru Posted June 2, 2023 Posted June 2, 2023 Quote Finch: Mm, you’re not wrong. But three of us against a herd of them, ::she huffed:: we’d be going out with a bang, that’s for certain. Seva: I’d rather not go out at all! @Doz Finch @SevaReeshe 😂 you two have cracking up! 1 2
Bryce Tagren-Quinn Posted June 6, 2023 Posted June 6, 2023 (edited) Quote Reynolds: Skarbek? Brunsig: For crying out loud. Yes. ::He ran a hand through his hair, short blond locks sticking up in every direction.:: Are you alright? Reynolds: I need a strong cup of tea before I can answer that question. Are you? He grunted softly in his non-committal way, swinging his legs over the side of the bed. @Quinn Reynolds Edited June 6, 2023 by Bryce Tagren-Quinn 1 1
Doz Finch Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 Quote Cain: Yes, I am curious what you diplomats even study at the Academy. How to behave at tea parties? 🤣👏 I loved this @Tahna Meru! 1 1
Tahna Meru Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 @Bryce Tagren-Quinn 😂 Quote Tagren-Quinn: …lights… Mouth, dry. When they popped on with the brilliance of Earth’s sun on a cloudless Arizona summer day, Bryce hissed like some sort of cave dweller, brought a forearm over to shield his eyes, and quickly added… Tagren-Quinn: …reduce! Reduce! 10%! 3
Tahna Meru Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 Gnaxac: Quote The last time he’d been in that universe, he’d spent the entire experience trapped in a cargo container with a few dozen other poor unfortunate souls, only to be released by some grizzled members of the senior staff. When they’d all been released from that go-around, he’d immediately filed for a transfer to the Resolution, where this sort of crazy crap didn’t happen. Until he got stuck in a time-loop that involved him being eaten by a t-rex, struck by a meteor, and otherwise ending up deceased. So he was very much relieved when the crew was transferred to the Excalibur, where he ended up throwing up over the side of the HMS Excalibur in the middle of some Earth ocean. Realising that it wasn’t the ship’s that were the problem, Gnaxac went through a period of assuming that he was in some way cursed by the Exchequer. Probably because he didn’t care all that much for profit, was the thinking. Oh, you poor unfortunate soul! @Genkos Adea 1 1 1
Tahna Meru Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 Every time I open another "waking up from Skarbek" sim it's like flipping a coin--will it make me laugh or cry? @Piravao sh'Qynallahr going right back to sleep on the floor falls into the former category. Quote With a strangled cry Piravao rolled out of her bed and onto her feet, expecting a Cardassian attack. Unfortunately her legs tangled in her blankets, and the Andorian was sent tumbling to the ground. sh’Qynallahr: Dammit…not again…screw this, I’m going back to bed. Not bothering to get back into the bed, Piravao pulled her blankets over her head and shut her eyes. She would deal with her Maquis alter ego once she was properly rested and awake. 3
Bryce Tagren-Quinn Posted June 12, 2023 Posted June 12, 2023 @Jo Marshall Quote The promenade of Deep Space Nine practically hummed with a blend of chatter and excited anticipation as the myriad inhabitants moved slowly, appraisingly through the section of station. Some were already decked out in their "Where Wormholes and Weirdos Collide" and "Defiantly Awesome" souvenirs, likely purchased from a Ferengi-looking establishment they'd seen further up the long circular walkway. Jo already had her eye on one: "Bajoran Spirit, Starfleet Swagger" mug. 1 1
Doz Finch Posted June 13, 2023 Posted June 13, 2023 Quote Marshall: Nothing like that crisp Deep Space Nine air for the body, ::she coughed into her fist,:: and the soul. sh’Qynallahr: The air is certainly full of…interesting smells. @Jo Marshall @Piravao sh'Qynallahr 4
Doz Finch Posted June 16, 2023 Posted June 16, 2023 Quote Nkai: All I’m saying is that I once had to work on a ship with broken atmospheric controls. ::A grin lit up his face.:: My icicles had icicles, and I’m just not built for that. Made me laugh! @Quinn Reynolds 2
Popular Post Samira Neathler Posted June 18, 2023 Popular Post Posted June 18, 2023 Quote The 3 ensigns turned to the Commander, eager to hear the response, getting to know a ship was paramount, however some places might not be visited by the 'Lower Decks' staff too often. Talking to one of their contemporaries might yield better results, still handy information to know. Neathler: There’s so many. The gym during workouts, Sto’vo’kor when I need a drink. And when I want some quiet and peace, that’ll be my quarters. Torvi knew already where she would be interested in hanging out, the shuttle bay departure lounge, but knowing there was a bar was also a good thing. Avoi: And I’m sure that’s quite the riveting place! Ylvor: I am quite sure that the Commander isn't inviting you to her quarters Avoi, ::Torvi chuckled:: Our new Ensign @Torvi Ylvor already knows Samira all too well. 😁 1 4

Ylvor: ...Or the 'Diplomatic Incident' seems slightly more appropriate. @Tahna Meru & @Torvi Ylvor Ha! 1 4
Popular Post Tahna Meru Posted July 2, 2023 Popular Post Posted July 2, 2023 Howdy Gorkonites! Yayyy, we made it back from Skarbek-land, and pretty much in one piece (not counting the emotional trauma, don't worry about that bit)! And it's all thanks to the power of friendship and witty one-liners If you're new here, hi! Let me explain: every month, Kara (AKA Doc Tagren-Quinn) and I compile all the sim quotes that made us giggle, pick one for each player, and send out a poll for the ship to choose a Quote of the Month. Everyone is welcome to submit quotes, everyone gets to vote, and every month there's a winner's badge and bragging rights for our champion wordsmith. This month, our winner issssss... (zh’Tisav) It looked kind of bad as she shoved the bundle back up into the dash, but her code name was “Cable” not “Cable Management”... Congrats to our favorite friendly giant! On both this win, and the little Andorian on the way... Cheers, y'all! -Eris 5
Bryce Tagren-Quinn Posted July 5, 2023 Posted July 5, 2023 @Samira Neathler Quote Tagren-Quinn: Just getting a gift for my nephew. He has a fascination for life beyond Earth, mainly insects and reptiles, amphibians, but he enjoys lions, tigers, and, umm… bears, too. Neathler: No marsipulians? Tagren-Quinn: Ah, yes, haha, he does, he does. A serious oversight on my part. He continued to grin and laugh as she walked up beside him, navigating away from the thicker portions of the crowd. Neathler: A lost opportunity, mister Tagren-Quinn. But I’m sure I’ll be able to convince Ko to bear no ill feelings. 3
Bryce Tagren-Quinn Posted July 5, 2023 Posted July 5, 2023 @Quinn Reynolds & @Jo Marshall Quote With a resigned, wry grin, he looked sideways at his friend. Nkai: You really do take me to all the best places. 1 1
Bryce Tagren-Quinn Posted July 5, 2023 Posted July 5, 2023 @Tahna Meru Quote Tahna: So, we’re looking for esani and makara root. What do you want with makara root anyway, Bry? Got some secret Bajoran girlfriend to look after? 2
Popular Post Samira Neathler Posted July 7, 2023 Popular Post Posted July 7, 2023 @Genkos Adea Oh, we're judging 😆 Quote Gnaxac stood up and took a fistful of the tube grubs and shoved them in a pocket of the speed suit. He thought about squeezing some hot sauce in there with them, but suspected that Bryce might judge him. 1 4
Bryce Tagren-Quinn Posted July 11, 2023 Posted July 11, 2023 @Torvi Ylvor 😆 Quote Ylvor: Is this a good time to mention I haven't attended my check in physical yet? She could see it now 'On Today's Edition of the Fleet's worst Ensign... All the way from Alkenzi Minor.. please welcome Torvi Ylvor!' She winced. 2
Tahna Meru Posted July 14, 2023 Posted July 14, 2023 @Samira Neathler & @Torvi Ylvor Mustn't keep the PADDwork waiting! 😉 Quote Aegam: Fancy doing another hike around the lake before we return? Ylvor: Oh I don't know, there could be PADD work to be done on the ship.. ::She pretended to ponder the faux dilemma for a moment:: 2
Tahna Meru Posted July 14, 2023 Posted July 14, 2023 @Corum_Hak @Quinn Reynolds @Samira Neathler 😆 Quote Corum: Ensign Corum Hak reporting for assignment to the USS Gorkon, permission to come aboard, sir. Reynolds: Welcome aboard, Ensign. ::She lifted up a solid carry case and pressed it into his arms with a grin.:: Here, carry this. We’re going next door. At this point anymore curve balls would convince the Ensign he had never truly made it to the Gorkon and instead, the transporter had in fact sent him to the Prophets. Being handed the case, heavy in his arms, he looked sheepishly to the Commander that had brought him here. Neathler: You’ve got this Ensign. Corum: ::nodding and attempting a confident tone:: Yes...well... 2
