[8:49][DOIC]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:*The music for STAR TREK: PROTECTOR begins to play...
[8:50][DOIC]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:*The camera pans around 'Yisa' as it shows the various crews enjoying and exploring the planet, just as they would with Risa back home. It zooms in on the bar as the music is already going at the bar

[8:51][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*T'lena walks int he bar on the arm of her Solvak
[8:51][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Interesting song
[8:52][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Some Hevam rock song.
[8:52][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine was sleeping in a chair on the beach, his sunglasses still on and his beer bottle half buried in the sand beside him.
[8:53][DOIC2]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:*Cathy zooms past him on a hoverboard, causing some water to splash up on the beach.
[8:53][DOIC2]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:[Bore] *Was recovering on the beach after time spent with Nadine, nursing a beer bottle of his own.
[8:53][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Stands in front of a grill working brushing some marinade on nearby meats.
[8:53][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Bartender, two fauxhitos
[8:54][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Zhal is that your inner chef working over there?
[8:54][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"What can I say, you inspired me.
[8:54][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Yanda] *He presented Bore with an ice pack.* "Here you are, sir.
[8:54][DOIC1]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:[Bartender] Of course

[8:54][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Excellent. Make sure to include atleast something grass for our vegitarian friends
[8:55][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] I do not consume... wait i suppose that is ground foliage on earth..
[8:55][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*His nose twitched slightly at the scent of meat wafting over from the bar area, but remained motionless.
[8:55][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Oh I have tons of fruits and vegitables for anyone who would prefer them.
[8:55][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena smirked and touched his fingers
[8:55][DOIC2]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:[Bore] *Takes the ice pack and leaves the yanda a little latinum tip.* "Thanks, man..." *He went to sit on the ice pack, hissing.
[8:56][DOIC2]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:[Bore] "Ouch... ouw... crap...
[8:56][DOIC1]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:*Val is presented with a bottle of win and a glass.
[8:56][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Vegitables will be fine
[8:56][DOIC1]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:*T'lena and her guest are serve dtheir fauxhitos.
[8:57][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Don't worry i'll convert him back to his omnivorous roots eventually
[8:57][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she takes her drink and toasts it with Solvak then takes a sip
[8:57][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Places the first set of meat on the grill. Then turns his head towards the Salad to his right and grabs his knife to chop.
[8:57][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"been behaving yourself Ms Tegan
[8:57][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Any special request or just veggies cut into slices?
[8:57][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:*Nods and pours her wine, pulling a PADD out and giving FNS a quick scroll, giving Ezri a little look.
[8:58][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Chef's choice
[8:58][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri looks up from her PADD-- "huh? Why? Did someone say something?
[8:58][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Nothing ms tegan just making conversation.
[8:59][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Customer aftermy own heart, One salad coming up, I can leave it dry or add a dressing if ya like.
[8:59][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Dressing is fine
[8:59][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"oh, yeah. of course. So..um how do you like this weather?
[8:59][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"It 'as been a while since i saw you, Ezri, I 'ope everyzhing is fine wiz you.
[9:00][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"It is lovely.
[9:00][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] A little wet, but acceptible
[9:00][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"its a beach solvak.
[9:00][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"At least zere is enough sand for 'im to play in.
[9:00][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Yeah, i guess jungles are not really a thing on Vulcan.
[9:01][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] No. And unlike our Rihannsu cousins we adapted as such
[9:01][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Don't touch it!" *He suddenly jerked awake, blinking and looking around for a moment.* "...Oh. Dream.
[9:01][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I am surprised Blaine's not been drawn to the meat yet
[9:02][DOIC2]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:[Bore] *Looks to Blaine from his seat when he saw him twitch* "Everything alright?
[9:02][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Contiues chopping mixed greens, and adds in his chopped and diced veggies adding a slight spiced dressing. Then begins tossing the salad in a large bowl.
[9:03][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Weird dream... don't worry bout it..." *He muttered, patting the sand for a moment then retrieving his beer.* "You smell meat?
[9:03][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] it is good to see you again Ezri Tegan
[9:03][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Places the prepared salad into a smaller bowl then walk it over.* "Should pair nicely with the drink.
[9:03][DOIC2]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:[Bore] "Now that you mention it, I do.
[9:04][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--nods-- "yeah, being on different ships makes frequent meetings difficult.
[9:04][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] My thanks It was Zhal correct
[9:04][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He got up, drawn toward the source of the smell.
[9:04][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Yep he's my new pilot.
[9:04][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"new pilot? What happened to the old one.
[9:05][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Chuckles.* "And Chef, and musician. But I'm the new fly boy for the most part.
[9:05][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"You do not know ze pilot of your own ship?
[9:06][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Not my department.
[9:06][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Marcus appeared, immediately joining them at the bar.* "Tegan has very important duties to attend to. What's cooking?
[9:06][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"I am sure she does.
[9:06][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Good to make aquantance, I am Dr Solvak, Comparative mythlogy and xenolinguistics on the USS Caelian, as well as the lead guitarist of the band Embers of a Waning Sun
[9:06][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"..yeah I do important stuff...
[9:07][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Zhal is cooking BBQ of some kind Marcus
[9:07][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"I mean, any kind of barbecue is welcome in my book.
[9:07][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*solvak took a bite of the salad
[9:07][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] This flavor is very welcomed. Thank you
[9:08][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--picks up her PADD again-
[9:08][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she stole a bite of the salad by taking his fork with her tattooed arm
[9:08][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Tropical fish, pork pulled from a few different culture Cap. and I have a Trillberry pie in the oven
[9:08][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"there are unusually high chroniton traces in this area.
[9:08][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Ooh that dressing is almost drinkable.
[9:09][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri looks around.-
[9:09][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"You just might earn yourself a promotion if you get me pulled pork on a bun and slather it in sauce.
[9:10][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"One way to earn the second butter bar? Use Butter?
[9:10][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Do not worry about it too much, Ezri. Our vacations seem to be a 'otbed of such activity...
[9:10][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"You know it, Doc.
[9:10][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Begins flipping the fish on the grill.* "I can do that. Been a while, but I have an ancient Earth sauce that is sweet but has a bite at the end.
[9:11][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i am not really worried about it, but I would like to catch me a time traveller.
[9:11][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] *seemed to be listening to the music
[9:11][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"...For what purpose?
[9:11][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--she shruggs-- "i don't know.
[9:11][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Bite's good, I like some bite." *He grinned, then looked at Ezri.* "Leave the time travelers alone, Ezri, they probably have important timeline business.
[9:12][DOIC1]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:[Bartender] It is unlikely that you will run into a time traveler here
[9:12][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Is exactly what a time traveller would say...
[9:12][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He tapped his foot to the song.
[9:12][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:*Sips her wine.
[9:12][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"but sire they could be bad guys trying to change the timeline.
[9:13][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Begins placing bite size pieces of fruit on a skewer. Pulls the pork off the grill and starts slicing.
[9:13][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"of course the chronitons are likily from some natural phenomenon.
[9:14][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"I'm sure. Like some... chroniton rock. Or whatever they come in.
[9:14][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Plates the pork slices, and places an amber glaze sauce on over the two slices and then places the same a light salad at the side and dresses it. Then walks over to Marcus.
[9:14][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"But, I knew they were there when skin got all tingly.
[9:14][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Places the plate on the bar.* "Can I get anyone anything?
[9:14][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I think i'll take that too Zhal."
[9:14][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Marcus had to take off his sunglasses to look at the food.* "Ensign, you're going to fit in fine here. Thank you.
[9:15][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Coming up!" *Looks to Valerie and Ezri.* "Ladies can I get you anything?" *He then nods and smiles at Marcus.
[9:16][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"I'll take some of that salad.."
[9:16][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He began to dig on, making a noise of sublime pleasure as he bit in.* "That fucking meat is like butter...
[9:17][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:*Smiles and shakes her head.* "Non, merci, I 'ave been doing a new workout regimen." *She flexed her abdomen.* "'Ave to keep zis while allow myself to skip some workout...
[9:17][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:(Diet* regimen
[9:17][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] The human linguistic tendency to compare food via metaphor is always colorful
[9:18][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Takes another slice of the pork, and glazes it with the amber sauce and mixes in two salads and smiles. He dresses both salads then heads back to the bar.
[9:18][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she sipped her drink
[9:18][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Oh that looks delicious.
[9:18][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Places the meal down for T'lena then crosses over to Ezri with her Salad.
[9:18][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she starts eating
[9:19][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--pauses to look at the salad as it is set down.-- "thanks.
[9:19][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she takes a bite of the salad
[9:19][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"I try. The pork has been marinating for four days.
[9:19][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*then goes back to the meat eating quickly but not hastily
[9:19][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--takes a bite of the salad.-
[9:19][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] that is dedication to the preperation. Did you you replicate the meat
[9:20][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*after swallowing* "I don't see many porcine quadropeds areound here dear.
[9:21][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Nods* "Some things are better fresh, but given the local sadly I dont have the means for fresh.
[9:21][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] In that case, I would liek to try some
[9:21][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He chortled.* "Even the vulcan wants some, never thought I'd see the day.
[9:22][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Seeing zat 'e is on a beach, I would say 'e 'as already been "Corrupted.
[9:22][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Soon 'e will be defying logic by suntanning.
[9:22][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"They have beaches on Vulcan, don't they?
[9:22][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Smirks.* "Absolutely." *Removes the skewered fruit from the grill and places lets the fish rest. Turning back to the pork he takes a slice and glazes it with the sauce.
[9:22][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"I zhought zat was all deserts..." *Shrugs to Blaine.
[9:23][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] We do
[9:23][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Here you are Doctor." *Places the plate down.
[9:23][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Not many though
[9:23][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] *cuts the pork and makes sure to get a good bite then eats it chewing
[9:24][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] *swallows* That, well i have very little to compare it too but the flavour is quite acceptible.
[9:24][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Vulcans are like romulans omnivorious though romulan lean much closer to carnivors than our vulcan cousins biologically
[9:24][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"High praise," *he chuckled and continued to inhale his meat.
[9:24][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Usually vulcans do nto eat meat based on principle.
[9:25][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] As this is replicated. I have no such ethical dilema
[9:25][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"But dont let Vulcans fool you, their deserts are really good.
[9:25][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] And thuse can enjoy the fruits of Ensign Zhals labor
[9:25][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"That's ebcause sugar is an intoxicant.
[9:25][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she smirks
[9:25][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Everyzhing tastes sweeter when it is not you who 'as worked for it.
[9:26][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Is it not a human proverb that the fruit of your own labor ripens sweetest
[9:26][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"It is also a lie.
[9:26][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Though a very large amount of human myhtology is driven by foods
[9:27][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Places the fruit skewers on a long tray and places them on the bar.
[9:27][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] The stories of Loki and Thor involve many focuses on food
[9:27][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena snatches one
[9:28][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] So does the writings of Martin, and Tolkien
[9:28][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"There is just the slightest dusting of sugar on the fruit so that the natural juices come through. I'd recommend a napkin.
[9:28][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"We love our food.
[9:28][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri quickly snatches a fruit skewer.-- "Jumja?
[9:28][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Now dear no talking about Tolkien.
[9:28][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she says placing a piece of fruit in his mouth
[9:29][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i am a big fan of sugar.
[9:29][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Similar Ezri. Though this has a little more acidity than jumja.
[9:29][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak]*eats the fruit
[9:29][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--frowns-- "well i guess it will have to do.
[9:30][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"You know cathy was suppose to be here, v'tira must have had other plans.
[9:31][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"What is wrong wiz Tolkien?
[9:31][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] You enjoy his works
[9:31][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i don't know what is wrong with it?
[9:31][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Oh nothing Chalons just" *she sighs
[9:31][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"I do... Not as much as some, seeing zat I 'ave a friend named after 'is works.
[9:32][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Takes the rag off his shoulder and wipes his brow, and looks down at the oven checking on the pie.
[9:32][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri persk up, as she smells the pie.-- "What kind of pie is that?
[9:32][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Yes Commander Arwen Svard
[9:33][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Trillberry. As I recall that was a request.
[9:33][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Indeed. I razher enjoy teasing 'er about it.
[9:33][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] I beleive Niaev does not share my enthusiam for the work. But as a Linguist and a comparitive mythology specialist the work of Tolkein are... fascinating
[9:33][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri lets out a small squeal of delight and starts bouncing in place.-
[9:33][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] My field is basically summed up in a story that was originally designed for entertaining children
[9:34][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Smirks to himself.* "Anyone need seconds?
[9:34][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] I am fine thank you
[9:34][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Ah... so for you it is more zan just an appreciation for ze work. Intriguing.
[9:34][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"More pork flyboy!
[9:34][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Does 'e compare to anyzhing in Vulcan literature?
[9:35][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri watches the oven now waiting for it to give up its treasure.-
[9:35][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Nothing in vulcan literature is so imaginative. We lost msot of our litarature in the cataclyms that lead to the exodus of the Rihannsu people. The vulcan people focusing moslty on recoverin
[9:35][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Chuckles to himself and begins slicing the pork again. Going back through the routine of slicing and glazing it. Then walks back to T'lena and place it infront of her.
[9:35][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] practical texts. even the wrtiings of surak were deemed unimportant
[9:35][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"she smiles* Thank you
[9:36][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Any time." *Looks to Marcus.* "Cap? You need another helping?
[9:36][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Ah. My condolences. I do appreciate andorian writings from time to time. Very battle - focused at times but interesting nonezheless.
[9:36][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] I am sure that vulcans once had such tales. And that is partly what drove my interest in comparitive mythologies
[9:36][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--eats her not Jumja fruit-
[9:37][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] I cannot study my own culture as I would like so I study others to potentially reconstruct vulcan myth from context clues in our culture using the principles of others
[9:37][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Indeed. Who knows? Wiz 'ow much cultural intermingling 'as 'appened since ze formation of ze federation, I am sure zere are many young vulcan auzhors inspired to break away from old vulcan writing 
[9:37][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] My assignment to the Caelian was to perform such analysis on the cultures fothe LMC to search the myths for truths about our enemies.
[9:38][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Traditions. And zat sounds like a worzhy mission. Myzh 'as 'elped quite often in my work.
[9:38][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] In the space between myth and history. As bren would say
[9:38][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena ate
[9:38][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Marcus slowly looked up after his player finished ninja AFKing, having been entirely focused on the meat.* "Huh? There's more?
[9:39][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Opens the oven and carefully pulls out the large Trillberry pie and places it carefully on the counter letting it rest.
[9:39][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Always is." *Chuckles to himself and begins getting another slice of the pork and glazes it.
[9:39][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] One of the most interesting forms of myth is actually the trill generational myth structure
[9:40][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Mmh. I am more intrigued in ze myzhologizing of ze Kzari's past struggles and in particular zeir chancellor... but I do see ze appeal.
[9:40][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Places another plate down for Marcus.
[9:41][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Its one that takes several lifetimes to complete as it cross's symbiote lines. All weaving a fictional story from their experiences
[9:41][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Bless you, Ensign." *He took his new plate happily.
[9:41][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] It has a similiarity within Cardassian literature
[9:41][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:*Nods.* "I 'ave been introduced to ze concept. It is fascinating, particularly where you can see ze small deviations from ze previous 'ost's stylye.
[9:41][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Grabs the empty plates off the bar and takes them back to his work area.
[9:42][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"I serve at the pleasure sir.
[9:42][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Most Cardassian State era literature. follows families over generations with a common theme that is inexcapable. Sometimes written by those families and published long after it originated
[9:42][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Grabs a clean rag and starts to clean the dirty plates off.
[9:42][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[
[9:42][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...See, you could all take example from Zhal here." *He nodded approvingly.
[9:42][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena finishes her second one and wipes her hands and face
[9:42][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I cooked for everyone once.
[9:42][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"And might again when the time calls for it.
[9:43][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"I used to cook. Done it enough.
[9:43][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"granted most of you thought i was trying to poison you.
[9:43][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Grabbed a series hand full of napkins and returns them to the bar.
[9:43][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Because pointy ears.
[9:43][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she teased
[9:43][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"I'm still not convinced you didn't slip our medication into our plates like you would make a dog take its pills.
[9:44][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Only yours.
[9:44][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"So that's why my infection cleared up...
[9:44][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Was allergy medication for plant allergies.
[9:44][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Cuts into the pie carefully and takes a medium sized piece and places it gently on a plate, and then scoops a vanilla ice cream onto the plate and walks to Ezri.
[9:45][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Well, appreciated. Last thing you want is to put your face between a set of petals and have your throat close up.
[9:45][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"There should be a smokey flavor to it to enhance the natural sweetness of the Trillberry, an old trick Enri used to do. Cook the berries before hand in alcohol"
[9:45][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri is shaking with anticipation.-
[9:45][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Ooh Pie!
[9:46][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Offers Ezri a fork and sets the plate down for her.
[9:46][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"...pie" --she says with an almost religious reverance.-
[9:46][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] I would be interested in tastign the final course ensign Zhal
[9:47][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Thanks you. I miss Trillberry season back home..
[9:47][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Of course.
[9:47][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Turns back and starts preparing more of the pie and ice cream.
[9:48][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri stares wistfully at the pie for several long moments, her eyes misty.-
[9:48][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Sets two plates down for Solvak and T'lena.
[9:49][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*solvak nods in thanks
[9:49][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Thank you looks great." *she takes a bite
[9:49][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Turns his head slightly and glances at Ezri waiting for her reaction.
[9:49][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Yeah this is dangerous
[9:49][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she smiled
[9:49][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri takes a bite and slowly savors it, her eyes closed.-
[9:50][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] *consumed a bite* Indeed. Well done ensign
[9:50][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Of course, and if anyone wants more. I have enough to go around.
[9:50][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] *A blonde trill barged into the bar from the beach, immediately heading to the counter.* "I smell trillberry.
[9:50][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri smiles-- "tastes almost like I remember it.
[9:51][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Chukles.* "One Trillberry slice coming up.
[9:51][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Maker bless you, my good man." *She took off her sunglasses and leaned against the counter.
[9:51][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Greetings Eren
[9:52][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Evening, Solvy. Observing the illogical masses again?
[9:52][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Cuts another slice and prepares another scoop of the ice cream.
[9:52][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] Consuming this food is most logical
[9:52][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Places the plate down for Eren.
[9:53][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena smiled
[9:53][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri is lost in blissful delight-
[9:53][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "You're speaking my language." *She grinned at Zhal.* "Thanks, kid. You new around here?
[9:54][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I thought you'd be with Captain Riens. Eren.
[9:54][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Yup. Got here a few weeks ago.
[9:54][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Sovlak] *eats more icecream
[9:54][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Basically just in time.
[9:54][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Looks at Ezri and tilts his head. Muttering to himself.* "I think I'll wait before I tell her.
[9:55][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Must've been on the last ship through the gate, then." *She nodded, then looked at T'Lena.* "Captain command thingamajig.
[9:55][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Ah.
[9:55][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena danced a little as she ate the rest of the pie
[9:57][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Like I said I have seconds, thirds, and more so if anyone needs anything. Happy to get it.
[9:57][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Wait, captain command thing---" *He went to check his PADD quickly.* "Oh, good, still not important enough.
[9:57][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] *finishes his dessert* Thank yo
[9:57][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--manages to polish off the rest of her pie and ice cream-
[9:58][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Ze beauty of not being on ze command track.
[9:59][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*solvak wanders over to the stage and picksup the holo isntrument to configure it
[9:59][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"I wasn't at first... but someone had to take the blame for everything after Zhaixe left.
[9:59][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--with a hint of sadness hse slides the empty plate away-
[9:59][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Looks at Ezri you need another slice?
[9:59][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena goes over to join him
[10:00][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"..not right now, I am full.
[10:00][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*then heads back after he says something
[10:00][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:Okay after this song
[10:00][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she drinks her drink
[10:00][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Solvak wants to play something we've been working on.
[10:00][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"were those replicated Trill berries?
[10:01][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] *She munched her pie with a serene look on her face.
[10:01][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Nope. I got some before I transfered out.
[10:01][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"The Caelian actually succesfully transplanted them to a beryxian agri colony
[10:02][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"So there are also LMC grown trillberries now.
[10:02][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "I for one can't wait for Beryxian trillberry wine.
[10:02][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Mmm. Well, Zhaixe was ze one who recommended me to train ground troops and not 'ave to deal wiz too much paperwork.
[10:02][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"wow. thanks for sharing..it has been so many years since I had real Trill berry pie.
[10:02][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"So I am grateful to 'er for not 'aving to deal wiz Command's bullshit.
[10:02][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Try being a doctor.
[10:03][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she laughed and headed over to solvak who had started to play with the song that was playing to warm up
[10:03][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Well... had a feeling you missed it so... I may have baked you a second one.
[10:03][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"science has a lot of paperwork but not the stupid boring kind.
[10:04][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] *smiled at her and made sure the 7 string electric guitar was configured then let his long hair out of its ponytail
[10:04][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Alright
[10:04][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"This one is called... Reveal the light within.
[10:04][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*solvak and t'lena started singing together
[10:04][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Well... probably if you can read science zhings, Ezri. I cannot tell molecular schematics for water from zose for arsenic...
[10:05][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*solvak banged his head as he played
[10:05][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--looks at Val-- "wow. you are lucky you have not poisoned yourself yet.
[10:06][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Yes, 'ow lucky I do not work wiz chemistry.
[10:06][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "You have no idea, Ezri," *she smirked.
[10:06][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Picks up the dirty dishes and takes them back to his work station.
[10:06][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--that is why the rules say everything has to be clearly labelled.
[10:07][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"And us dumb dumbs appreciate the labeling, Tegan.
[10:07][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Indeed.
[10:07][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--nods-
[10:08][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Though I am personally convinced they make up some of the words that put on the labels.
[10:08][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Technically every word is made up.
[10:08][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"thank you.
[10:08][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Roughly fifteen percent of them just mean 'stop asking questions.'
[10:09][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she heads down
[10:09][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Solvak] *however stays up there listens to the next queued song a moment before taking over the guitar part
[10:09][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"See this is why I just sit behind the desk and make the ship go vroom.
[10:09][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*there was now a funk playing vulcan on the stage
[10:10][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena started dancing* "Sometimes he surprises me.
[10:10][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"I would just poke ze scientists until zey made zemselves useful.
[10:10][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"technically all the words on the label are made up. But, what do you call something that you just made or discovered? There wont be a name for it yet.
[10:10][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Infinite diversity in infinite combinations," *she smirked at T'Lena.
[10:11][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she bumped into eren playfully
[10:11][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Pulls the second Trillberry pie out of the oven and lets it rest.
[10:12][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*as solvak played a funky solo
[10:12][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] *She bumped back, grinning.
[10:13][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Wraps the pie up and turns towards Ezri.
[10:13][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*solvak started another more normal for him song
[10:13][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--looks at the wrapped up pie.-- "For me?
[10:14][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*whispers to eren* Think we know who his favorite is
[10:14][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "In some provinces that counts as a marriage proposal.
[10:14][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Little piece of home. Made the traditional way.
[10:14][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Thanks you so much.
[10:15][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri heads out with the pie, carrying it like it is a holy icon.-
[10:15][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Smiled and gave a nod.* "My pleasure.
[10:16][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Starts slicing down the pork and splitting the glaze into two containers.
[10:16][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:*Watched Ezri go, shaking her head lightly.
[10:17][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Whats wrong Chalons?
[10:17][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*solvak had found a new game of basically playing karoake with the guitar
[10:18][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Nozhing... I guess I am a bit jealous of 'ow unrelentingly optimistic Ezri is.
[10:18][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Its part of her superpower.
[10:18][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Oh? What is ze ozher part?
[10:19][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Being chosen by some god somewhere.
[10:19][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Begins wrapping the pork and seals the glaze in a container.
[10:19][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"And thus protected.
[10:19][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she laughed
[10:19][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Offers a plate and glaze to T'lena, and one to Marcus.
[10:20][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:Thanks Zhal. I will make use of this later
[10:20][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Looks to Eren.* "You want the leftovers of the First Trillberry Pie? There is over half of it left.
[10:20][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Nods to T'lena and smirks.* "I can whip up a few salads with what I have left.
[10:21][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Divine protection is quite ze zhing." *Nods to T'Lena.
[10:21][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Bottle the dressing if you would.
[10:22][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Nods.
[10:23][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Sounds divine, thank you.
[10:23][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Prepares the salads into individual containers and bottles the dressing. Then moves to the pie and wraps it up.
[10:23][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"That it can be. But then again i am just a demon worshiping rihannsu.
[10:24][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Ayrienne be praised!
[10:24][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she makes a dramatic gesture with her hands
[10:24][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Places the Trillberry Pie down for Eren, and then sacks the salads and dressing for T'lena.
[10:26][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she stacked them up
[10:26][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Thank you." *She grinned.* "It was Zhal, right?
[10:26][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Or flyboy, hey you, jackass. Really whatever you prefer.
[10:26][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she smiled back at solvak* Well im gonna grab the now befounded vulcan on the stage and go work of some calories. Jolan Tru
[10:27][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Enjoy." *Nods to T'Lena.
[10:27][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena grabbed solvak and headed out
[10:28][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Jackass is an umbrella term for pilots in general.
[10:28][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Fair enough. I'm Eren, you're in the club I guess?
[10:29][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"To everyones dismay depending on the day." *He chuckled.
[10:30][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] *She laughed.* "I mean joined. Because I swear no one could make a pie that good if not for at least a lifetime's prior practice.
[10:30][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Oohh, yes. Zhal, Enri was the Chef. I am the rebel pilot.
[10:32][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Well, my compliments to Enri." *She grinned.* "Surprised they let any more of us into this fleet. The commission nearly had a stroke when Zhaixe was joined.
[10:33][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Shame zey could not 'ave seen 'er kamikaze a ship...
[10:33][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Why do you think we haven't seen her since then?
[10:34][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"I think the commission was pleased when they saw I was a classically train musician on the homeworld, and were horrified when I decided to join up with Starfleet.
[10:35][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "They are awfully overprotective of us, it would be endearing if it wasn't so fucking annoying. At least with the gate down we can't get updates from them.
[10:35][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"I zhought ze whole point of a joined trill is to experience life from many different angles... I do not understand ze appre'ension about starfleet. Everyone dies, sooner or later.
[10:37][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Agreed. When I was a pilot for a space station playing concerts they were fine with it. I go into deep space through a gateway. I seriously through the Guardians were going to loose it.
[10:38][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "When communications are reestablished we're going to have a hell of a time convincing them to let us stay. But that's an issue for another day.
[10:40][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Thank the stars for that. I do not want to be on the recieving end of that call.
[10:40][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Can zey actually pull you out?
[10:40][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "They could certainly try. Compton will probably fight them for it though.
[10:41][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"What would be worse is if they put a Guardian out here to monitor us.
[10:41][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Or even one on each ship. Everyone having our own personal babysitter.
[10:42][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Is zat what you call zose annoying old spoilsport trills?
[10:42][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Pretty much, except they worry more about our symbionts than the whole person.
[10:44][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Well, there's plenty of trill. We go, they can always pop our belly buddies into another one.
[10:44][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Yes, I saw Zhaixe's guardian... I believe your Sevuk 'ad more of a sense of 'umour... and zat is saying somezhing.
[10:44][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Try dating one for six months. It's aweful.
[10:45][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Maker's sweaty sagging balls, why would you put yourself through that?
[10:45][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"I didnt know!
[10:45][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] *She cackled.* "Were they spying on you?
[10:46][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Mon Dieu.
[10:47][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"When werent they. You pull a few pranks to pass the time and suddenly you get one of their spies in your bed.
[10:48][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] *She paused, considering something.
[10:48][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "...You know, that explains multiple hookups Zacir had back in the day.
[10:49][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:*Chuckles softly.* "Any means neccessary.
[10:51][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"And they are so damn crafty and great at traping you. Go ahead Alerio buzz the tower I wont say a word. Had a squadron of shuttles just waiting to catch me do it.
[10:51][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Actually, 'ow many symbionts are zere in general? Zere must be millions upon millions, no reason for zem to be so protective?
[10:51][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Actually, there are very few. I don't think I've ever heard an exact number given, but the population of trills greatly outnumbers that of symbionts.
[10:53][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"I 'ad 'eard zat but I always assumed zat since zere are billions of trills running about, zere are at least a decent few million symbionts... Huh.
[10:54][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"It's a fair guess, but honestly we really dont know.
[10:55][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "I'm sure the keepers know the number, but they aren't sharing it with the rest of us.
[10:55][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Zat is razher strange.
[10:57][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Eren] "Not really. They keep a lot of things hidden from the rest of the population, the whole thing is practically sacred.
[10:58][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Every culture has their secrets
[10:59][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Indeed. Still, trill culture is partways built on zis, non?
[10:59][DOIC1]Valerie Chalons@bulgariandragon:"Zat would be like keeping... I do not know. Warp drives 'idden from 'umans.
