Denali Station quotes that have a nice Ring to them.

[Dekas]

Did someone on Denali Station say something funny? Gut wrenching? Thought provoking? Feel free to post those things here.

I'll start.

T’Lea:  Then it’s probably safe. ::beat:: Probably.  ::pause::  You could follow the toggle circuit just to be sure, or take a chance and flip it.

 

She said enjoying the latter idea a little too much.  T’Lea was 98% certain it was a simple breaker switch type thing, but the other 2% was always exciting.

 

Absolutely classic @TLea being secretly excited about the prospect of something blowing up. It's good every time. 😉

 

 

[TLea]

Aww, I get the first one.  Shucks.

I think T'Lea's new motto should be, "Things that make you go BOOM!".   I don't know if anybody here is old enough to remember those jokes from the Arsenio Hall show.

Not at all surprising.

T’Lea:  Yes, Ma’am.  ::beat::  Are there any indications of big exclamation points, or bold letters near the toggle?  Angry looking symbols?
 

She ran her tricorder on active scan of the box - with power flowing ti was easier to tell what the various circuits were doing, not perfectly, but with some passing certainty.

 

Oddas: ::offhandedly:: Just a big sign that said 'do not flip upon penalty of death'.

@Oddas Aria  I love it when Aria shows her funny playful side.

Qinn: =/\= Captain?  Assume I’m inserting my standard objections to putting you in harm's way unnecessarily. =/\=

Pretty sure our fearless Captain @Oddas Aria has a dedicated "ignore" folder for these, but you have to appreciate the effort.

To be fair, she doesn't like going outside, so the objection isn't generally needed ....

[Dekas]

@Kettick has a fair point, Engineers have an especially weird relationship with Murphy, probably best not to tempt fate 😆 

Quote

 

Sera:  It is rather… underwhelming.  

Kettick’s mandibles fluttered at the comment.

Kettick: Please refrain from taunting Murphy, mister Sera.

 

 

[Dekas]

Needs more cowbell detail @TLea 😆

She shot a look at Kendrick, expecting him to pick-up the detail that she detailed with more detail.

 

[Ashley Yael]

Quote

As she approached a strange face, she reached back and finished clipping her hair in a ponytail.  The man was Denobulan, but maybe not quite.  His features seemed softer somehow.  He was quite handsome, and the color of his eyes was highly engaging to look upon.

T’Lea:  We’ve not been properly introduced.  I am Lt. Commander T’Lea, the historian and archaeological officer.

Yael: response

In years past T’Lea would have immediately given the Counselor the cold shoulder, but having been married to a Counselor she had come to accept their potential for usefulness.  And so she didn’t kill him.

T’Lea: Ah, you’re the one that everyone will try to avoid.  

And so she didn't kill him.

YET.

You might wanna check with the last person who tried to kidnap her. Last couple, actually. snaps fingers Oh wait, you can't because they're not breathing anymore. 😂

[Dekas]

@Ashley Yael. You know I don't want to assume, but it looks like someone is excited to work with the bird-man 🤣. This is my absolute FAVORITE response that anyone has ever had to first being around Dekas. Just the sheer confusion and low-key joy about it all is hilarious.

Quote

 

He could just fly over??

 

OF COURSE he could fly.  He was a bird man, and looked nothing like a penguin.

 

……….

 

HE WANTED TO SEE HIM FLY.

 

Outwardly, Ash stifled the internally demanding thought by lifting a closed hand to his face and covering his mouth as he cleared his throat.  Do not yell at the bird man.  Do NOT yell at the bird man.  They were *civilized*, after all.  Meanwhile, the two officers continued their conversation, ignorant to the Denobulan hybrids internal avian related conflict.

 

 

[Serala]

I absolutely love the way @Kettick just drops this line in almost deadpan. Best scientific description of a dragon I have seen in a good long while.... Bravo!

Quote

 

The Remmilian hefted his phaser rifle, scanning their surroundings.

Kettick: I have nothing. Too little information, too may hypotheses we could make to explain the evidence we have. :: He chittered darkly :: For all we know, we might as well encounter a large reptile that breathes high-temperature biological napalm.

Beat.

Kettick: Did I say something wrong?

"As he noticed T’Lea stepping into the shuttle, playing with her hair, he suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body and quickly swiveled his chair to face the pilot controls. Fortunately for him, Lieutenant Dekas joined him in the cockpit so he was able to focus his attention away from the Romulo-Vulcan."

Mmmmmm HMM.  Interesting.  Not at all suspicious.  😉

Quote

T’Lea:  I’d like to think that I am mature enough to accept your expertise when appropriate, Mr. Yael.  After all, I was once married to a counselor.  ::smirk::  Perhaps you should avoid me?

Was she flirting with their new counselor now? It sure sounded like it. 

 Yael: I’ll consider that a healthy challenge.

He felt an anger building up deep inside of him. He placed both hands on the control panel and closed his eyes for a second, breathing in and out. He had to get his anger under control before it was able to completely take a hold of him. Last thing he wanted was to turn around and punch the Denobulan in the face for merely talking to T’Lea. 

Oooooooommmmmmm, he BIG MAD.  T'Lea, what did you do to the poor guy???  😄

[Dekas]

@John Kendrick This gave me a chuckle. It's not the heartbreak part of it, it's just the melodrama of the moment is a little bit funny 😆. It's also just a good line, honestly.

Quote

 

oO It looks like the spike you drove through my heart when you left 6 months ago. Oo

 

 

[TLea]

I enjoyed this... a little too much.   @Sera

Quote

They were not very far down when the Human woman engaged in the use of colorful metaphors…a human quality that Sera found most…interesting.

Leyen: Dammit.

Oddas: Ensign?

Sera: ::peering down::  I do not believe the Ensign is condemning anything in particular to everlasting punishment in a fiery plane of existence.  However, my line of site is obscured. 

Leynen: It’s closed. 

 

Sera frowned slightly in the poor lighting.  Of course, it was closed.  This was how huma movies went, wasn’t it?  First the group split up, and then got stuck in a less than ideal place with minimal lighting…and then the carnage began.

I'm LIVING for this already @Kettick. 

Quote

 

… Aaaand there it was. She pinched the bridge of her nose between two fingers, exhaled deeply, and did her best not to glare at the Ferengi shuttle behind her.
 

Frayley: Yes. Yes, it’s called the Somebody Else’s Problem. And I wish it were.

 

The hot pink Ferengi shuttle.

 

 

 

 

Also really loving the label tag in the signature for the character.

Totally beat me to it, @Dekas!! Definitely NOT liking this character already! @Kettick 🤣 (I really am, though)

[Dekas]

@Sera also out here writing some absolutely killer lines in response to it all. 😆

Quote

Miller: Well…it’s a look.  I hear pink is the new gun metal grey.

 

[Kettick]

And hidden in the signature, there's this gem of a nod:

Quote

Petty Officer 1^st Class Breana “Bree” Miller 

Totally a Logistics Specialist 

@Sera

[TLea]

Quote

The Aurelian shook his head to erase that thought —like a Terran etch-a-sketch— before it could potentially reach too loudly into any telepath’s head as a genuine concern.

 

oO Pluck me, when did I pick up such ridiculous paranoia? Oo

@Dekas  Pluck me!  That is perfect in so many ways. lol  

[Ashley Yael]

From the narrative of T'Lea

Quote

T’Lea folded her arms in thought as the group discussed the purpose of the barrier, and Yael walked nose-close to the energy field.  The darkest part of her mind told her to push him into it and find out what happens, but that thought was easy enough to ignore. For now.

AND SO SHE DIDN'T KILL HIM YET.

*drumroll*
