Lieutenant Noa T'Nessa Levinson - Having a Ball, Just All Over the Place

[Serala]

Okay, I put this in the Chin'toka's quote forum, but as I kept reading this thing just kept getting funnier and funnier. Well done @Noa T'Nessa Levinson

 

((Corridor, Deck 10, USS Chin’toka))

Levinson: Out of the way! Move!

Noa was doing her best not to outright shout as she was running in the corridors. She didn’t really have time to think of a plan on how to contain what she was chasing, with how quickly it moved.

She was just monitoring an experiment of part of the science department’s latest attempts at creating a rubber-like material, ensuring it was much more elastic and durable than rubber. It definitely had its uses - such as absorbing shocks in lieu of inertial dampeners, but still being in the testing phase, the sample was held inside a level 9 forcefield and spherical in shape for easier measurements.

What couldn’t be anticipated, however, was that Crewman Pics’s instruction to display the data on a nearby monitor would be interpreted by the computer as "disable the forcefield around the obviously active experiment". Long story short, what was quite possibly the bounciest bouncy ball in Federation history was now bouncing amok around deck 10. After notifying relevant personnel and realizing the ball was moving way too quickly for the transporter rooms to possibly get a lock on it, Noa started bolting after the ball as a few other members of her staff split off to see if they could corner it… or something.

Soon enough, she managed to start closing the gap towards the bouncy ball, before noticing it was headed in what looked to her as right for Captain Delano’s head.

Levinson: ::With the slightest hint of panic in her voice:: Captain, move aside! Now!

Fortunately, the ball just barely missed him and kept bouncing uninterrupted along the corridor.

Mei’konda: Response

She took that opportunity to stop running and catch her breath. That was… genuinely tiring. She wasn’t used to this amount of exercise. Especially not in her uniform.

Levinson: ::Visibly exhausted:: Are you alright, sir?

Mei’konda: Response

Noa eventually managed to catch her breath and speak more than a few words per breath, and spoke.

Levinson: A really bouncy bouncy ball. A computer malfunction disabled its containing forcefield mid-experiment.

Mei’konda: Response

Levinson: I am aware it may be much, but can I ask for your help in… containing it, please?

Mei’konda: Response
