Should have known it was the Benzite breathing so loudly, what with their need for respirators and such! Nice post, Ayrn!

Nice way to play the respirator angle off of Eol's post. Fun read!

...I've picked up all the bridge activity and run with it!

...updated.

...something for quite a few of you to do.

Okay, so I've updated the roster entry for Lt Tochi Zai to reflect some "basic information" for each of his symbiont's four previous hosts - Name, gender, occupation, age at death and/or transfer of the symbiont; total time hosting, etc - (this info is found at the end of the Medical History section), and some of the skills/interest/knowledge Tochi's inherited from each of them (this info found in "Special Skills and Ratings").

As pointed out in the roster entry, itself, please note that, at the present point in game time, it is not commonly known that the Trill are a "joined species" (at least from everything I've read, so far), so very few people will likely know about any "previous hosts" - though they may be well aware of the skills/interests/hobbies he's inherited and/or find it odd that he sometimes talks about "remembering" things that happened well before he's physically capable of remembering. If, at any point, you feel the need to use any of this information in your posts, please contact me first so that we can work out the details.

On the other hand, if your character happens to have eclectic tastes in music, for example; and, one day, happens to ask Tochi; "Hey! You're not, by any chance, related to Dirven Zai, are you?" Feel free to do so... Might be an interesting conversation, especially for an aficionado of the Trillian Mandolin.

Thanks, and continue boldly going,
Eol

Go to sleep for eight hours and three posts magically appear! I may never sleep again! ... Or, I may sleep all the time... Whichever works out for the best as posting goes.

Nicely done, folks.

Just a little fluff post from me, folks. Based on what he's seeing (and, to some degree, some very old memories) Tochi believes the pod to have originated from a Hekaran ship.

Note: The Hekarans are members of the Federation but the pod doesn't match known Federation/Starfleet produced configurations but, instead, a "locally produced" Hekaran vessel. Use that info as you will.

Mornin' all. I edited Eric Thorson's most recent post to incorporate dialog with LtJG Morgan and reaction to LTJG Sa'eridon's overnight efforts.

Stop editing stuff after I've already copied, pasted, and saved it into a word doc!

Sincerely,
Captain Backup





Point of note: Good edit!

Record those edits, wench! Recooooord theeeeem! (in best Mommie Dearest 'No Wire Hangers!' voice)

WITNESS MEEEEE!! CORRECTLY, WITH UPDATED EDITS AND PROPER GRAMMAAAAAAAARRRRRR!!

I'm gonna puma pants!

Don't Phillip your pants. Go to the Lou.

Hey, I'm just checking to see how much freedom I have in posting from the Ops?

Is this one of those times where I should just be posting something simple like: "Moriden's fingers quickly danced across her console, bringing the image of the escape pod onto the viewscreen, while initializing a full-spectrum scan of the ship."

Or do I have the freedom to write more about information about the scan (beyond confirmation of the XOs findings)? i.e. adding details about id of the pod and it's mother ship, modifying the sensors in such a way as to cut through the interference and positively identify the life forms on the ship, etc?

Let me know.
