Denali Station quotes that have a nice Ring to them.

[Gogigobo Fairhug]

@TLea is exactly how I remember her. Good to see that some things never change. 😂 Love this internal dialogue. 🤣

Quote

oO Cold is cold.  Does it matter how it manifests? Oo

 

If they knew maybe they could do something about it.

 

oO You shut up too.  Whose side are you on!Oo

 

[Dekas]

@Gogigobo Fairhug Like corned beef. Such a fun comparison to make. 😆

Quote

Muscular and compact, like corned beef. You underestimated a Bardeezan at your peril.

 

[Dekas]

But also this response to the meatballs comment has been living in my head rent free for a few hours @Tomas Falt. We're all sad when we have to say that the universal constant of meatballs has been lacking.

Quote

Falt: I grew up in Scandinavia on Earth, an area known for its meatballs. But despite that I’m sad to say my life has contained considerably more crawlways than meatballs.

I have to admit, I borrowed this line from a British TV show. I put it in there as a bit of an "Easter egg", but I think it describes Gogi perfectly! 😂👌🏻

From @Jaelyne Isa:

Quote

Yhanne: Ladies, ladies. I can see that you have a single mind here, and I respect that. I do. But I think you’re chasing an untamed ornithoid.

 

Honk if you think that's funny.

[Dekas]

@Kettick I love Kaybay. And your descriptions, as usual are so good.

Quote

The taste was… surprising. Not particularly in a good way. Perhaps he did not have the palate for it, but it tasted like plomeek soup, or Vulcan politics. As bland and boring as could be.

 

[Dekas]

@Tomas Falt This one needed to steep in my brain a little bit before I fully considered how funny the sentence is. Because as I work on a response, I keep seeing that sentence and chuckling, and the more I read it the funnier it gets.

Quote

Nan wasn't used to seeing deck one so devoid of phaser fire, showers of sparks, and the occasional officer flying through the air after their console exploded.

 

[Gogigobo Fairhug]

@Kettick I love this line.

Quote

Kaybay: I am willing to try everything once, except bankruptcy.

 

[Gogigobo Fairhug]

@Dekas sounds like my social life! 🤣

Quote

There were four people. He didn't like any of them.

 

[Dekas]

@Ashley Yael It's honestly descriptions like this that, in the best possible way, leave me reeling. Pun only partially intended.

Quote

 

All she needed was an intelligent but slightly weak-willed or discontented counselor on her hook.

 

And he’d willingly put that hook in his mouth if it meant he could make her think she was the one doing the fishing.

::sticking his head::

This line would be even better if it was meant for  @TLea

::curls back with a grin::

[Dekas]

@John Kendrick I love a good villain. And she is that. Her thoughts are described marvelously. Chef's kiss.

Quote

 

So the Eagle had left its nest, leaving the station vulnerable for an attack. She could order the Ba’tan to aim its phaser array straight at the Administrative Area. A few precision shots and they would rip out the heart of Starfleet. With Starfleet’s forces spread thinly in the Aavaro Wilds, Ring 42 would be ripe for the taking.

 

She could already see the Cardassian flag waving in the wind. The adrenaline rushed through her veins at the thought of victory.

 

 

[Dekas]

As per the usual, @Kettick is hilarious 🤣

 

Quote

 

Kettick: The retrieval procedure has been initiated, sir.

 

Probably. Given their translations issues, they may as well have started a carpet-cleaning protocol.

 

 

[Serala]

Another great line from @Kettick 😂

Quote

Kaybay: You know the difference between an Orion trader and an Orion pirate? If you have more guns than them, it’s a trader.

I'm not sure if Neshala should be offended or not. Good thing she's not there. 🤣

[Gogigobo Fairhug]

This line tickled me from @Kettick😂

Quote

He let that sink him. Sorry, sink in. Maybe both.

 

[Gogigobo Fairhug]

@Tomas Falt those pesky Cardassians! 😂

Quote

Nan only needed her antennae to count how many straight-talking Cardassians she had met over the years. Judging by this one’s opening comment she wasn’t about to start having to use her fingers instead. 

 

[Gogigobo Fairhug]

@Dekas I love little touches like this. Brings a sense of reality to things.

Quote

Dekas: =/\= Capt- ::he shook his head, the titles were becoming crossed wires in his head now:: Sorry, Lieutenant Dekas to Captain Oddas.=/\=

 

[Dekas]

@TLea the sass in this is is a mood 😆

Quote

oO There’s a comforting thought.  Stuck in a dingy with four dudes for an unknown number of days. Oo

 

[Dekas]

Okay, also another zinger from @Kettick's characterization of Daimon Kaybay. Morally dubious vibing over here.

Quote

Ah, moral obligations. Something everyone needed to live a good life, like they needed a millstone around the neck to go swimming. Oh, well, he had nothing against charity, as long as it ended in his pocket.

 

[Gogigobo Fairhug]

This is great writing of a Ferengi character and just great writing in general. @Kettick

Quote

The Captain sipped her drink, giving herself some time to think. In the meantime, Kaybay analyzed her response, and came to a set of conclusions. One, what Starfleet did not know nor participate in, they would not object to. Two, whether something should be sold to the outside world or not was left to his better judgement, which would one hundred and ten per cent of the time be 'yes'. Three, the City and its surroundings would be subject to a sharing agreement, from which he deduced that the rest of the Ring was subjected to a 'finders keepers policy'.

He liked the sound of this interpretation enough not to share it with the rest of the table.

 

[Dekas]

I'd like to thank @John Kendrick for seeing the weird spooky-season vibes I was putting down, and absolutely picking them up and running with them in just the right way.

Quote

 

John took a step back, shocked by what he saw inside the cockpit. He covered his nose and mouth. The smell was awful. 

 

Kendrick: What the h-

 

He almost didn't dare to look, but inside the cockpit was a skeleton in a weathered Starfleet uniform 

 

 

[Dekas]

@Tomas Falt We love a call back!

Quote

Falt: =/\= Varg hates vampires! =/\=

 

[Gogigobo Fairhug]

@Tomas Falt 🤮

Quote

Falt: ::to Falen:: Sorry about this Lieutenant, but we need to get you out of there and it might be undignified… 

 

((A short and somewhat gooey timeskip)) 

 

[John Kendrick]

Great writing from Ace , @Dekas wrestling with his inner demons:

Quote

Dekas: Sorry. I have trouble saying what happened to me in words. Because if I say it, it becomes real and I would rather it wasn’t. I have this reputation of being a bright, flowery person who helps everyone with their problems within a certain amount of reason, and if I say out loud that actually, sometimes I internally struggle with a lingering… ::he made an emphatic hand gesture, and he laughed a short, nervous laugh saying the word out loud:: trauma then that reputation becomes people asking me if I’m fine and I am fine. I’m… fine. I have insomnia, I get very anxious if I’m alone with myself for too long, and now I’m having nightmares. But I should be able to handle it. I’ve been handling it. Because I’m fine.

 

[John Kendrick]

@TLea, as always spot-on with her observations as she describes Commander Ton (a Trill) 😉:

Quote

T’Lea:  Have you ever thought about spot enhancement treatments.  Yours seem a little sad and faded.  Could use a boost.
