[9:03][DOIC]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:*The STAR TREK: PROTECTOR theme begins to play...
[9:04][DOIC]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:*The camera pans around 'Yisa' as it shows various crews enjoying their last days of leave. It zooms on the bar sa the crew of the Manta is among them...
[9:04][DOIC]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:*GO
[9:05][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena sipped a fauxhito
[9:06][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine was seated in a command meeting, trying to keep up with all the updates being presented.
[9:06][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Begins molding burger patties of varrious ingrendients some vegetable, others a replicated ground beef, some turkey. Making sure to sanatize his hands as he switches from vegetables to meat products
[9:06][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:As he hums a tune to himself.
[9:07][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:-was sitting the back chewing somebubble gum as she too feigned at listening occasionally 'POP'ing her gum loudly
[9:07][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor walks into the bar from the sea, shaking water and sand off like a dog.* "I hate kids.
[9:07][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:What happened
[9:08][DOIC2]V'Tira@Isis:[Endel] was digging up the beach as he tried to remember just where the heck he buried Spot a night or two ago
[9:08][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Sif] *glares at the vulcan
[9:08][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--A low rumbling sound comes from over the hills getting closer to the bar-
[9:08][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[sorry that was Liz :P my bad :P 
[9:08][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I was sleeping on the beach and I wake up to see that they're... What is that?
[9:08][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Sif] *glares at the human
[9:08][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] "...Reports of Zhyx vessels being reported by Kzari scouts near the corridor..." *Little blips were added to the holographic map.
[9:09][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri comes in for a floater landing on the beach-
[9:09][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Maximus] That may mean we need to shift more defense to the Kzari
[9:09][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Maximus] Zhyx rarely move absent purpose
[9:10][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] "That was our thought as well. If they've joined the Chantry and the Imperium in their war, this just got infinitely more complicated.
[9:10][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--She unstraps from the floater and sets it by the gate-
[9:10][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Oh... Ezri. Anyways, they thought I was a "Sand person" and were burying me in the sand to see if I'd get bigger...
[9:10][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Liz] -half glances at the map memorizing it immediately and shrugs- Well the corridor now has that cloud of proto Travynei sitting in it the Adagio met and offered alliance t
[9:10][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Finishing molding the patties and places them on the grill.
[9:10][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Assuming they're joining the war, of course... I mean, they could just be acting on their own volition." *He offered.
[9:11][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Riens] It makes sense, They are still servents of the dark. But they coudl be seeign a pwoer vacuum and moving in as well
[9:11][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Liz] -toyed with her hair and pointed at Jax and Marcus
[9:11][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--orders a pink fuzzy drink-
[9:11][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Liz] Unless the Imperium or chantry fire on them or somethign equally as dum
[9:12][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] "The Imperium and the Zhyx appear to have a cordial relationship that includes the trade of technology. It would be highly unlikely they would try to attack them.
[9:12][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Allows the meat patties to sit on the grill for a few minutes and turns to start chopping vegetables.
[9:12][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Liz] Yeah huh -nods
[9:13][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Alice] -provides Cousins with the next set of data 
[9:14][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Could be the other way around. The Zhyx are servants of the dark but they're dramatically different. They're a hive and don't appear to need the other races for anything but physical labor.
[9:14][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Maximus] Most of this is speculation we will need reconassaince to ascertain the truth
[9:14][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Glances over his shoulder at everyone.* "Everyone enjoying shore leave?
[9:15][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Talia] -nods to Maximus- My thoughts exactly
[9:15][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"sure I suppose.
[9:15][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] "That's correct. We can only work with the facts before us, and the facts are that with the Kirtas system secured, the Imperium is clearly focusing on assisting the Chantry against the..
[9:16][DOIC2]V'Tira@Isis:[Cynna] -races by pulling on her kite string with little Domal running beside her doing the same
[9:16][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:galactic southern front.
[9:16][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:What is left of it
[9:16][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she sipped her drink
[9:16][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Liz] and ran head long into the Skara and Kzari armada...so its so gonna be a major furball down there
[9:17][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Smirks and nods.* "Always feels short." *Finishes his chopping then returns to the grill and begins flipping the patties.
[9:17][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Liz] *Pop
[9:17][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i place third in the floater races.
[9:17][DOIC2]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:[Valerie] *Was resting by the beach in a chair, watching over the two as she sipped on some syntohol cocktail.
[9:18][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Riens] We still gotta figure out how in the hell they turned Artesia into a one way trip
[9:18][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Riens] We still gotta figure out how in the hell they turned Artesia into a one way trip
[9:18][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I'm eager to get back out there. T'Pang's finally tasted blood, I like this new her.
[9:19][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"I can pilot a starship, but I never could figures out how to properly fly a floater.
[9:19][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Liz] My guess is we need to find their primairy base of ops for tha
[9:19][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"maneuverability was a major factor in the race, one I had not considered.
[9:19][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] "Additional information has been gleaned from that, with no small thanks to the late Admiral's daughter.
[9:20][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Riens] That what was it horn or whatever in the debrief
[9:20][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Finish flipping the patties and lets him sit on the heat a while and then turns towards the bar.* "Anyone need a beer, or a refill?
[9:21][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:Good for now
[9:22][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"yeah my pink fizzy drink is still fizzy.
[9:22][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] "The Tanausans appear to have an artifact in their possession since the last war, what we believe to be the control mechanism... well, control -being- for what appears to be a destroyed..
[9:22][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:gate similar to Artesia and Hecate.
[9:23][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Maximus] *raised an eyebrow
[9:23][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Maximus] *raised an eyebrow
[9:23][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Anyone have a best part of shore leave?
[9:23][DOIC2]V'Tira@Isis:[Lucina] -lay on the lounge near Val watching the children through her mirrored shades as they played together
[9:24][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] "We doubt very much that they had anything to do with the gate's destruction. They can't have that capability. But something else did, and they took the orphaned being as their trophy.
[9:24][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Talia] Curious, the destruction had to be a weapon then, from the previous alliance...from the last war then
[9:24][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Getting shipwrecked was fun.
[9:25][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Being... like Eirene is the, uh, I guess control or assistant for Artesia?
[9:25][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Liz] -smirks at this
[9:25][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Riens] Maybe there was a sister station
[9:25][DOIC2]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:[Valerie] *Had taken one of the last bottles of white wine from back home, keeping it in her cooler in case Lucina felt like it.
[9:26][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Shipwrecked?
[9:26][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] "...It's far more complex than that, Commander Blaine, but you have the... basic idea.
[9:26][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-swims up to the steps and rises up each collecting her towel to dry her hair as she approaches the bar
[9:26][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Takes the burgers off the grill and wipes it down and places the veggie burgers on carefully.
[9:26][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-eyes the veggie burger and nods to Zhal- Ensig
[9:27][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--waves to V'Tira-
[9:27][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-waves back to Ezri
[9:27][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"V'Tira I took third place in the floater races.
[9:27][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Yes?
[9:27][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-cants her head as she ponders that and nods- Well done Ezr
[9:27][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-to Zhal- I was saying hello Ensig
[9:28][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-nods once to each T'Lena and to T'Ghor
[9:28][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] "We are still attempting to determine how exactly they used this being to shut down the other gate, or how they could do it from so far away. But it's a first step in getting it back in..
[9:28][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i would have done better but I had trouble on the obstcle course.
[9:28][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:working order.
[9:28][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Nods to V'TIra, then looks to Zhal.* "The booze crooze crashed.
[9:28][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Oh! Hello!" *Blushes slightly feeling stupid.
[9:28][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-nods again to Zhal and repeats- Hell
[9:29][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she sipped her drink
[9:29][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--looks at T'Ghor-- "Doesn't that happen every time?
[9:29][DOIC1]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:*Cathy blows on V'Tira's ear.* Boo
[9:29][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Nope. Most of the time we just get lost at sea.
[9:30][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Allows the veggie burgers to get a hard crust on the exterior and then flips them.
[9:30][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"oh right, big difference.
[9:30][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-squrims some as she feels her sensitive ear blown on, she steps ck some into Catherine- Boo indeed, hello Catherin
[9:30][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Riens] You know if there more than one Artesia on this side, there might be more than 2
[9:31][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"It is a big difference. Besides, this year I was on my own because Blaine's a bastard.
[9:31][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Talia] I do not believe that is how 'Artesia' work
[9:31][DOIC1]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:[Baker] Hello
[9:32][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Pulls the veggie burgers off the grill and wipes it down again.* "Alright I have burgers, Veggie burgers, turkey burgers, beef, and I am fying up some crisps too. Should be done shortly.
[9:32][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-to Cathy she curls her fingers just under her chin- Enjoying yourself I see
[9:32][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Riens] Maybe not, maybe it sone at a time. But when you start ruling things out you don't know for sure. Well you know what they say about assuming
[9:32][DOIC1]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:[Baker] Very much so
[9:32][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Why not? Why couldn't there have been another one, only it lead to a different galaxy?
[9:33][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Talia] Because the one we have does lead to other galaxies as she has shown us
[9:33][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Talia] She seems to exist in many at the same tim
[9:34][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Talia] We saw as much during the Adagio's first travel through he
[9:34][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Switches hands and places the bugers down. He turns to his frier and lifts up so that the he can examine the fries. Satisfied he pulls them out as well. Then begins preparing a tray of the selection
[9:34][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Then what could this destroyed gate have been? Just something like Artesia?
[9:35][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-nods to her- I findmy timeis now more agreeable with your presence here with m
[9:35][DOIC6]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Riens] Multiple end nodes. Blow up one another gets built
[9:35][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Talia] We never got to learn -to Jax- I believe that was being researched when we got 'cut off
[9:35][DOIC1]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:[Baker] That is logical
[9:36][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Liz] Mom's folks are still working on i
[9:36][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Liz] So are folks backhom
[9:36][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Turns with the try of burger patties, buns, vegetables and more and sets it on the bar.* "Here we are.

[9:37][DOIC1]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:[Baker] Yes please
[9:38][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--looks at the tray of burgers.-- "they look like sandwiches.
[9:39][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] "Hopefully the information we've been sending through has been helpful to that end.
[9:39][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:[Liz] My bet is all the Imperium have done is fill up all of our people onboth sides with a great resolve to learn more and fix this. They are on a clock now -nods to Cousins- So they are gonna ge
[9:39][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:desperate folks.
[9:39][DOIC6]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] "Now, Kzari forces have begun deploying on..." *The rest of the meeting was terribly uninteresting.
[9:40][DOIC6]V'Tira@Isis:- Liz has a wonderful time then regardless 
[9:40][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Terran delicacy it's basically a grill protein on bread, with vegetables and a sauce. Oh the Sauces! I have a mango salsa, a vulcan five spice sauce and traditional sauces.
[9:41][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she takes a burger then puts a pepper sauce on it
[9:41][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"oh so a sandwich.." --she grabs a burger at random-- "so what kind of protein?
[9:41][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Starts preparing a veggie burger and then sets each of the sauces in smaller dishes on the side of the plate.
[9:42][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Sets the veggie burger plate down.* "There is a traditional beef patty, turkey, and then the veggie burger.
[9:42][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Why thank you Ensign...a dead cowflesh burger for catherine too pleaseif you ca
[9:43][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Coming right up." *Starts preparing a 'cowflesh' burger and preps the sauces.
[9:43][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"cows? Those are the Earth mammals with udders, right?
[9:43][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"They are yes.
[9:44][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Sets the plate down for Catherine.* "Here you are.
[9:44][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:They produce milk Ezxri with those udder
[9:44][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Don't all mammals technically have udders?
[9:44][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"And the cheese that is on the plate.
[9:45][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"..technically that is true...
[9:45][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Checks his icecream maker and the cobbler in the oven to make sure both are on track.

[9:46][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"what about me?
[9:47][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:This was very nice of you Ensign..very considerat
[9:47][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"You got udders.

[9:48][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Hums to himself as he works.* "Well the other night went so well with the barbeque firgued I could do something tonight.
[9:48][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"I pretty sure that is not true.
[9:48][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Well thank you for tha
[9:48][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-to Ezri- Look at your chest Ezri...udder
[9:49][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"those are not udders V'Tira.
[9:50][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Continues to hum his tune as he works, trying to keep his face from blushing again.
[9:50][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"They serve the same function, work the same way, just look a bit different.
[9:50][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"well okay that is factual.
[9:52][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:So..you can be milked Ezr
[9:52][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she eats her burger
[9:52][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"...Well... yes, that too... But not what we were talking about.
[9:52][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"No V'Tira, I do not consent to be milked.

[9:53][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-nods to T'Lena
[9:53][DOIC1]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:*Cathy rubs her nose.
[9:53][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I don't think cows consent either...
[9:53][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:I understand Ezri..but if you did consent..you could be milked given the right situatio
[9:53][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-eyes TGhor- Milkis..from non consensual touching
[9:53][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"With trill she'd need to be actually pregnant.
[9:54][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Or induce it with medicaments, doc.

[9:54][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Blinks at V'Tira.* "...Yes? Animals can't really consent, unless I missed something.
[9:54][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"I dont know, being pregnant has its joys. Also has its negatives.
[9:54][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:'"THose poor cows.
[9:54][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I suppose.
[9:54][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Curious...so humans force milk to be produced...cheese as wel
[9:55][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:all from non consensual touchin
[9:55][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I think that has long since not been necessary with replicators
[9:55][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Not just humans, V'Tira. Almost every species has a few animals whose milk they use for nutrition.
[9:55][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Curious..but taken non consensuall
[9:55][DOIC1]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:[Baker] Why are you discussing this
[9:56][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Gives Baker a shrug that may or may not mean he enjoys messing with Ezri and V'Tira.
[9:56][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-to Cathy- I did not begin the debate Catherin
[9:56][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"We took a wrong turn around beef patty." *Chuckles to himself.
[9:56][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-nods to Zhal- Ezri was ignorantof her own udders Catherin
[9:56][DOIC1]DGMAngelboy@ClingingMar:*Cathy sighs.
[9:57][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"..I am still pretty sure i do not approve of that term.

[9:58][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-offers innocently to her friend
[9:59][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"I also have stuff for a salad, or fruit cocktail, or I can whip up Gladst.
[9:59][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Gladst? What is that
[9:59][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"You know, Beryxians are one of the few species I know who use actual beryxian milk.
[9:59][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i guess mammaries is acceptable.
[9:59][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Their own milk, that is.
[10:00][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Interesting i was not aware of that TGho
[10:00][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I was caught off guard by that too... But some forums say it's great for gains in the gym.
[10:01][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"None of that is generally how I refer to them.
[10:02][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Looks up towards the sky looking at the sunset. Then turns back to his work area.
[10:03][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--concentrates on her pink fizzy drink and her burger-

[10:04][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-munches on her delightful burger
[10:05][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Glances at T'lena.* "No doctor tonight?
[10:05][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"..I probably should not say it out loud..
[10:06][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I am doctor or do you mean Solvak
[10:06][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:"Ah Solvak that was his name. Yes him.
[10:06][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"We have all said worse things, Ezri.
[10:07][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-quirks a brow at Ezri
[10:07][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Unless you blurt something out like "Money-making bosomous breasticles"
[10:07][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--looks down-- "..I usually call them pillows or Thingamajigs.

[10:08][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*To V'Tira.
[10:09][DOIC1]Zhal@Jabroc:*Turns slightly towards T'lena.* "Well I have plenty to go around and I also made up another bottle of that salad dressing for you both if you would like. Solvak seemed to prefer it.
[10:09][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:-nods to T'Ghor- I too was most surprise
[10:09][DOIC1]V'Tira@Isis:Every girl names her breasts T'Gho
[10:09][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Ah he's prepping for the caelian leaving
[10:09][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"But thank you i can make sure he gets it.
[10:10][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i never named mine V'Tira..is that indicative of abnormal behavior?
