Ok, I understood enough of that to say it sounds good to me.

I'll take them, I'll take them.

I need all the help I can with the character stuff. Those things you mentioned Nimu sound good. Once she is complete, someone will have to explain what all that means. Since Eol volunteered to make the stats, I guess it's him.

Hey Eol, how did you post that sheet as me? Do you have real magical powers?

Well now that you done with Sense8, go back and finish watching Dark Matter. It really gets good in Season 2. Some surprises for sure. I can't wait for Season 3, but it is a long wait as 2 just ended.

Subject: Alcohol


Yeah, I know it isn't really illegal, but if it has to be left up to the commanding officer's discretion, then it is 'frowned upon' at least. Therefore we can assume there are some ships that don't allow it.

Dana thinks of it as illegal since it isn't allowed everywhere, but she is thankful that Captain Drake allows it, in moderation.

I'll be fine. No major physical damage, a minor accident. I'm more shaken up emotionally than physically. It happened Saturday, I had trouble sleeping that night. I didn't drive anywhere Sunday, and today when I went to work and then home, I was all jumpy and driving overly cautious. I seemed to expect someone to hit me at any moment. ~sighs~ I hope I can sleep alright tonight.

Still have to arrange to get my car fixed. At least it is still drivable.

Stardate 2365.02.08
USS Peregrine ; Deck 3 - Chief Petty Officer Quarters - 1945



CPO Dana Cook came from the Holosuite where she and CPO Brooks had been sparring, or as he liked to call it, being her punching bag. Well, he couldn't expect to reach her level in so short a time; this was only his 6th time sparring with her. He was improving in his skill and he was a strong, fit man. If he ever did land a solid blow then he might do some damage; so far he hadn't been that lucky.

She approached her quarters and wondered how Lauren was holding up with the unpleasantness with her superior officer being arrested and most of his lab being confiscated by Starbase security. She was sure that the Captain was steaming as it was out that he knew nothing about the incident till it was all over.

She stepped up and pressed the button to open the door and then stepped inside. As she stepped inside and hit the door control to close it behind her, the first thing that Dana noticed when she walked in was a comm badge laying on the floor near the doorway. Bending down she picked it up and assumed it had to be her roommate's badge.

"Lauren?" Dana said as she stepped further into the room and saw Lauren pacing the carpet with a PADD in her hand working on something, "you alright?"

Lauren had been her roommate since coming aboard the Peregrine and they had gotten along well from day one. While Lauren was straight as an arrow, by the book sort, and Dana was the sort that bent the rules a little, they still managed to get along and have a bit of an influence on the other. Dana had gotten Lauren into playing poker in the weekly Chief's Poker game even though she thought it a violation of the rules. Once Dana had explained that the Captain was aware of the game and hadn't ordered them to stop as long as it was all in good fun and it didn't disrupt ship operations. Lauren had even had a few drinks of the illegal alcohol with Dana; she was a lightweight for sure but she didn't indulge near as much as Dana. No, Dana liked and cared about Lauren and concern had to be evident in her tone when she addressed her about her condition.

Chief Crane pauses in her deliberations caught completely unawares by Dana's entrance. So involved in her thoughts, the scientist misses the doors opening. Pausing mid-stride nearly causes her to fall over but she barely catches herself, a look of surprise on her mousy face.

"Uh," she forces out the sound reflexively while gathering her thoughts. But the sight of her friend finally breaks through her posturing and her face screws up with emotion. "Dana, I'm in big trouble!"

"Aww Lauren," Dana said seeing her friend about to break down. She walked over and reached out and takes her into a hug for a few seconds, then she withdraws her to arm's length and looks at her.

"Does this have to do with Lt. Tesenblen being arrested?" Dana asked her and even though she was sure that it was, she was uncertain how Lauren could be involved. Unless she had somehow been involved with what he was working on that got him in trouble.

"Yes." Chief Crane sniffs and wipes at her right eye with the back of her hand. "I--I was the one who reported Lieutenant Tesenblen.

"I talked with Horatio about the project he had just brought on first," she hurries to explain all the while refusing to meet her friend's eyes. "I tried to get him to see the potential for danger that having that plant on board could bring especially with our current mission but he said that he had Captain Drake's approval.

"I didn't have any other options and now she says that I'm confined to my quarters and she's going to bring this up with the Captain."

Lauren casts pleading, watery brown eyes up at Dana, "What else could I have done? The whole mission was at risk, but I didn't want anything to happen to Horatio. I didn't want him to go.

"Dana, I think I'm going to be court martialed. I think she thinks I was a traitor to this ship and now I'm going to get drummed out of Starfleet."

Dana visibly winced when Lauren mentioned what she had done. She sighed heavily and shook her head slightly. This was big trouble; circumventing the change of command was serious and especially when something like this personally embarrassed the Captain.

"Oh, Lauren," Dana said, "you know you did the wrong thing, right?" She lead her over to the couch in the common room and eased her down and sat beside her before she continued, "I'm sure you had good intentions, but you should have gone to the Captain and explained just like you did with Lt. Tesenblen. You should have trusted the Captain to listen and then do what he thought was best for 'his' ship. That is his job and he does it quite well.

"Now," Dana went on, "who is this ‘she' you keep mentioning?"

"Lieutenant Junior Grade Sh'iraolnas," Lauren bitterly reveals. "She's the new Andorian chief science officer, and we both know how Andorians are."

"Your new superior then," Dana nodded. "Well this is serious stuff Lauren, no doubt. But it is perfectly within the Captain's right to keep something like this aboard ship. He might just handle the punishment himself, since I'm not sure he would want to bring up a court martial which would expose the issue across Starfleet. I mean, a court martial isn't something that can be kept private. But Captain's punishment will remain aboard this ship and probably just among the people involved and senior staff. Most of the crew would never know what you did."

Dana hoped that this would be so. She would have to speak with this Lt. Sh'iraolnas and even the Captain, if she could, on CPO Crane's behalf. She sighed again and shook her head.

"You shouldn't have taken this on yourself," Dana told her. "You should have come to me and asked my advice. You know you can trust me, Lauren. Speaking of that, just know that I will not breath a word of this to any other person aboard except for your superior or the Captain. I will see if I can talk to both of them tomorrow about this issue, but don't expect to get off unscathed. You could still be demoted, but I don't think you will be kicked out of Starfleet, or even off this ship. You're too valuable and I will explain that to your Lt. Sh'iraolnas."

She gave her roommate a small smile but doubted that it would be comforting at a time like this. Dana would make sure to talk to the involved officers tomorrow. She would have to get someone to cover part of her shift after she checked on their lone patient and his test results.

"The Senior staff is all involved in that diplomatic soirée tonight," she told Lauren, "so I doubt your lieutenant has had a chance to speak with the Captain about it. That is probably why you are sitting here worrying so much. But I am sure that tomorrow, there will be some action on this and you will probably be before the Captain explaining your actions to him. Concentrate on that. What you are going to say and how. Be truthful in your words, but be sincere in your thoughts that you were concerned for the safety of the ship. Also, you have to be clear that there will be punishment and that you are ready to accept that, and hopefully continue to serve this ship. It is going to be rough on you, but you will get through this and I will help you however I can. Alright?"

"I don't know," Lauren sniffs again and slowly shakes her head. "I think I really messed up. Captain Drake has no reason to do anything other than throw the book at me.

"I've been going through options with the computer. There's the option to press for a court martial if I don't agree with the Captain's decision. I just don't know what I'm going to do. And you were on shift, Dana. I couldn't exactly come pull you away from your duties. I was going to let the whole thing slide until I learned that the ambassadors were being quartered on the Peregrine. Then there wasn't time to do anything other than what I did. Like you said, the senior staff is all involved with the delegation, I just don't see anything good happening. I think I'm as good as done."

Placing her hand on CPO Cook's thigh, Lauren offers a weak smile and says, "I don't want you getting involved, Dana. Stay as clear of this as you can. When mud splashes, it dirties whomever is nearby and right now, I'm wallowing in the stuff. I appreciate your willingness to speak to the Captain on my behalf, but please just pretend that you don't know anything about this until it's over."

"Don't you worry about me," Dana told her, patting the back of her hand, "I can take care of myself. I'm not afraid of getting a little dirty, so don't worry about it. I will see if I can discuss this with them, the Lt and the Captain. I think you have rights as an accused and one right is to have people speak for you. I would just want to discuss it with them to see how they intend to handle it. If they don't want to discuss it with me, then that is their decision."

"Now," Dana sighed, "you should stop looking through all of this and get some rest." She said tapping the PADD with a finger. "Why don't you lay down for a bit and get your head clear? I know you're upset and you will think better if you get some rest. I need to shower for one, been boxing again, but first do you need anything? Have you eaten anything?"

Lauren's soft brown eyes, rimmed with red from crying, practically seeped with gratitude at the kindness she is being shown by her roommate. Pressing her lips together while smiling softly, the CPO nods in agreement. "You're right," she sighs. "I should be getting some rest.

"Thank you, Dana. I still wish you'd keep clear of this situation. It can only end up poorly for you too. But I do appreciate your support."

"You go get cleaned up. I know you've still got the poker game tonight. So, you go have fun and don't worry a bit about me. I'll take your advice and just go to sleep. Maybe I'll feel more optimistic in the morning, after all."

Rising, Chief Crane waits until CPO Cook joins her and then gives her a fierce, quick hug. "Thank you," she whispers and in truth feels a little better that there's someone on board who cares for her.

Dana returns the hug for a few moments and then gets uncomfortable and breaks the embrace.

"Ok, ok, lets not get all mushy on me now," she gives Lauren a small grin, "besides I haven't taken that shower yet."

"We're all going to miss your money at the game tonight," Dana says with a smile, knowing that Lauren is one of the ones that often loses every time she plays. She then turns and heads towards her room and her shower.

Lauren chuckles a little bit as her friend heads to shower before the big Chief's Poker game. She turns and heads to her own room, leaving her PADD on the table in the common area.

Subject: Black Ninja Down


"TOMIKI!" Máiréad yells and rushes to his side as she sees him finish the bug and both fall to the ground. As she approaches she gestures with her staff and other hand in complex movements as she speaks low words that don't sound like they belong to any language. As she reaches him she reaches down and lays her free hand gently on his side where the wounds are from the bite.

"Spirits," she says, "klaatu barada nikto!"


Her hand glows a faint blue which spreads to his wounds, healing some of his injury plus doing battle with the toxins within. (Revival should be enough to handle the poison and partially heal him.)

After he starts to recover, she assesses his injuries and sees if he needs further healing. If so, she will once again call upon the Spirits to heal her companion. (Healing Touch 1-2 MP whatever seems necessary to bring him back to, or real close to, full.)

Once Tomiki seems to be better, she will go to check on Lum. If he still needs healing when she gets there, assuming he hasn't already used a potion or something, she will ask the Spirits to him his injuries. (Healing Touch 1 MP should do it for him, I think.)

(Now, since I assume combat is over, that she will be able to do these things, if the others will allow it. Let me know if I need to adjust my post for any reason.)
