Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Nov-20 05:52 PM

*The bar was kind of divey with several pool tables and a long bar against the wall with several bar tenders taking care of the patrons with a fairly handsome gentleman singing “Come fly with me” with a big band behind him.*

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 06:16 PM

*It had been over a month since she had been away on her side mission. She looked around and sighed. She had looked everywhere for Row she could think of. She had wanted to surprise him with her return. But alas it was not to be. She looked around and spotted someone who looked familiar. She walked up to them with a thoughtful look on her face* “forgive me but, do I know you?”

Johnny Ferentz BOT 30-Nov-20 06:19 PM

*Johnny had finished his set and was just stepping off the stage as people shook his hand when he saw the all to familiar StarFleet uniform. Letting out a sigh he took off his hat and frowned at her.* “Sorry doll, I don’t remember you. But there has been a lot of doctors in the last few months. Could I getcha some hootch and a seat?”

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 06:22 PM

*She raised an amused eyebrow* “hootch?” *she asked curiously. She looked him over and wondered for a moment if he was real or a hologram. He reminded her of one of those old films. As if he had just stepped out of one of those old black and white movies from centuries past. She held a hand out to him with a kind smile* “Nazral Reeehn.”

Ensign Cerred King 30-Nov-20 06:24 PM

*Capri had walked into the bar, flinching a little from the noise. He quickly turned off his hearing aids as he walked through, nodding and acting like he was supposed to be there.*

Johnny Ferentz BOT 30-Nov-20 06:25 PM

“Yeah hootch, like a drink or something to wet your whistle.” *He smiled at her before snapping as a waiter rushed over.* “I’ll take me regular and what ever the lady wants. Put it against my check. The names Johnny. Johnny Ferentz.” *He took her hand and pressed his lips lightly to her knuckles.* “It truly is a pleasure.”

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 06:29 PM

*She smiled lightly as she gently pulled her hand from his grasp* “my apologies sir, but I am very happily taken.” *her fingers fiddled the pendant on the small chain that hung around her neck.* “I would not mind the company of friends however” *she said with a small smile, turning to the bartender and asking for a glass of water*

Ensign Cerred King 30-Nov-20 06:30 PM

*Capri walked up to the bar and took a seat, looking around and people watching while he waited.*

Johnny Ferentz BOT 30-Nov-20 06:35 PM

“My apologies I forget where I am some times.” *He put his hat back on before looking back over the bar as he waits for their drinks before frowning.* “What department is black? I didn’t know there was one.”

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 06:39 PM

*She looked over at King and frowned. She dropped her voice and hid her mouth behind her glass as she whispered to Johnny* “it’s not security right? Nah they have yellow...don’t they?” *she took a sip of the water*

Ensign Cerred King 30-Nov-20 06:40 PM

"Hmmm? Oh its uh....intelligence. so like security but spooky?"

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Nov-20 06:43 PM

J *Johnny actually jumped. He didn’t know that the man could hear them. swallowing he took his drink and motioned for him to join them at a booth in the back of the crowded bar.* “Well it’s nice to meet you. I unfortunately haven’t met a lot of you buttons. Even if I am told you ain’t exactly the ones we had in my day. But it is nice to meet you.”

Ensign Cerred King 30-Nov-20 06:46 PM

*He followed the pair but didn't catch what the man had said, relying on lip reading was a bad idea. He flinched when he turned his hearing aids back on,* "Can you repeat that? My hearing isn't very good."

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 06:50 PM

*She also jumped, looking up at the Ensign as he joined them* “ah my apologies.” *she tilted her head curiously* “so you could hear us muttering under our breath, but not when we talk right to you?” *she asked curiously, her mind running a few miles a minute.*

Johnny Ferentz BOT 30-Nov-20 06:52 PM

“He’s probably one of those mind readers they told me about. What are the called? Alphazoids? Megazords? Something like that. And I said it’s nice to meet you.”

Ensign Cerred King 30-Nov-20 06:55 PM

"Betazoid. And just half. But no its because I could see your mouths moving and I lip read. But I couldn't see your mouths moving when you just now spoke and my hearing aids weren't on. I tried not to have them because its loud in here." (edited)

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 06:59 PM

*She hummed, curious, but nodded. That made sense. Still, it was a bit strange considering she had hidden her mouth with the rim of her glass. Or tried to anyways. She decided not to keep thinking about it and turned back to the two men with a kind smile* “no that’s fair, it is very loud” *she said with a nod to Cerred*

Ensign Cerred King 30-Nov-20 07:02 PM

"Yeah. Not used to noise." *He said with a weak chuckle and took a sip of his whisky.*

Deleted User 30-Nov-20 07:03 PM

*He walked into the bar and sat down at the counter. He waved to Johnny as he ordered a beer, deep in thought. Heh, he was the same dude from earlier on the ship.*

Johnny Ferentz BOT 30-Nov-20 07:08 PM

*He took a sip of his drink before nodding.* “I could have the band quiet down if you’d like. They do like to get a little rambunctious.” *He smiles offering a nod to Charlie.* “So which one of those large cities in the sky are you two from?”

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 07:11 PM

*Naz saw the movement of the wave and spotted the medical uniform. She stood up in the booth and sort of jumped the table, glad for her lithe build* “hold that thought Johnny!” *she said as she trotted away from the group and up to Charlie* “you must be the new counselor!” *she said with a big friendly grin as she plopped herself down in the seat next to him.*

Deleted User 30-Nov-20 07:13 PM

*The Betazoid/Vulcan turned to greet her.* "I, uh, I am the new counselor. Who are you exactly?" *He looked at her, trying to figure out where he saw her from.*

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 07:17 PM

*She chuckled and waved her hand* “My name is Nazral Reeehn, I’m a nurse. We haven’t met because I’ve been away on mission. But if you’ve met Row then you’ve probably heard of me” *she said with a bright grin*

Deleted User 30-Nov-20 07:19 PM

"Ah, that makes sense. The name's Charlie." *He extended his hand.* "It's nice to meet you, Nazral Reeehn."

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 07:21 PM

*She grinned and grabbed his hand, pulling him in the direction of the group rather than shaking it* “come join us!” *she said with a bright smile*

Johnny Ferentz BOT 30-Nov-20 07:22 PM

“Howdy there guy. I see you found where I spend my time on earth. Irks me slightly I traveled for weeks to meet up with the ship only to come back to where I was.”

Deleted User 30-Nov-20 07:25 PM

*He got up and looked at his hand.* "Alright, I'll join you folks." *He gazed at Johnny again, that same look of amusement on his face.* "So, uh, how are ya? I've heard tons of stories about how you... Came to be here in this century."

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 07:28 PM

*She grinned at Charlie and Johnny* “well since you two know each other” she said with a smile as she hopped into the empty seat next to Cerred\* “hello there! I’m your new seat mate!l

Ensign Cerred King 30-Nov-20 07:29 PM

*Capri had stayed quiet and nodded at Charlie, looking over at Nazral.* "Hello. Im okay with this."

Johnny Ferentz BOT 30-Nov-20 07:31 PM

“I see you read up on me. Yes I did come from the early 20th century. Yes I am old as shit somewhere around 500 if my math is correct. I don’t really want to talk about it if that’s dandy with you. I’ve had nothing but questions from people for the last 6 months.”

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 07:34 PM

*She smiled warmly at Capri* “good! Cause I’ve been told I can be a bit much. So I’ll apologize for that now rather than later.” (is it Capri or Cerred? Getting confused ) *and then turned to Johnny and blinked* “whoa! So there is a reason you remind me of black and white movies! Cool!!” *she said with a wide grin, a child like twinkle of wonder in her eyes* (edited)

Ensign Cerred King 30-Nov-20 07:36 PM

Either is fine. He won't fuss. Capri is just short for his sign Capricorn)

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Nov-20 07:36 PM

(I’ve always called him Capri

Ensign Cerred King 30-Nov-20 07:36 PM

"I like the type of vibe you give off though. Its kind of refreshing in this current day and age." *He said with a smile to Johnny.*

Johnny Ferentz BOT 30-Nov-20 07:39 PM

*He raised he eyebrows.* “Thanks guy. I Uh....most people as all kinds of questions but this is....this is nice. So which one of those Star ships are you on? The both of you?”

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Nov-20 07:40 PM

(I’m going to dinner

Deleted User 30-Nov-20 07:41 PM

*He chuckled at Johnny.* "We're all from the same one. The Odyssey. Funny how we all met up in this exact bar." *He sipped his beer and looked at them. Yes, he had met them before even if for a second.*

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 07:41 PM

(Get those foods!)

Deleted User 30-Nov-20 07:41 PM

((eat fooddd))

Ensign Cerred King 30-Nov-20 07:42 PM

"I just thought it would be fun to get out of San Francisco. My guardian and her caretaker were planning a trip here to see some shows and I kind of invited myself a long. Didnt expect it to be so much louder than San Francisco though."

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 07:43 PM

*Naz looked at Johnny and let out a sad sigh. Something about him reminded her of Rownan...Row...she really missed him. She hadn’t seen him in a month and now that she was back he was MIA. She shook her head and took a sip of water before she looked back at the group with a smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes* “yup! The big ol’ Odyssey.”

Johnny Ferentz BOT 30-Nov-20 08:17 PM

“Well then I hope to see each and every one of you at my shows. I talked to the owner of that joint you got up there and he agreed to let me come in and sing for an hour on during the week and a couple on the weekends and to provide entertainment at parties if they want me.”

Deleted User 30-Nov-20 08:25 PM

"Ah, that's great Johnny!" *He laughed and looked out the window.* "So, how's it goin?" *He looked at Johnny, his beady black eyes looking like they were staring into his soul.*

Ensign Cerred King 30-Nov-20 08:26 PM

"That would be amazing! Itll be a nice break from reading codes all day."

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 08:30 PM

*Naz looked around at the three of them and smiled. They seemed a lovely bunch. Just her type of people normally. But she felt...off? She wasn’t sure. She grabbed her water glass and took a deep drink, thinking to herself before smiling at Johnny as she set the glass down.* “that’s awesome!! Sounds fun!!”

Johnny Ferentz BOT 30-Nov-20 08:44 PM

“Cheers all. I’m excited to get back on the mic. I’ve been doing sets here for a bit practicing with the band.”

Artistic\_Almanac 30-Nov-20 08:56 PM

*She smiled at Johnny* “do you take requests? Because I would love to hear Sinatra’s ‘Fly me to the moon’ come on when Rownan shows up. Like he walked into an old romance movie or something” *she let out a soft giggle*

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Nov-20 09:02 PM

“I do actually and that is one of my absolute favorites. I love that song and I love New York New York. I enjoy Frankie, he was up and coming before I left.”

Ensign Cerred King 30-Nov-20 11:16 PM

"I was always more of a Dean Martin kind of fan. My guardians caretaker loves his music."

Johnny Ferentz BOT 30-Nov-20 11:17 PM

“I can happily learn some of his music. The ability to find music of any kind now is the bees knees.”

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 01-Dec-20 07:16 AM

(I’m back

Artistic\_Almanac 01-Dec-20 09:41 AM

*She giggled, taking another sip of water* “the bees knees? Adorable.” *she said with a cheerful grin.*

Deleted User 01-Dec-20 10:23 AM

*He chuckled a bit, nearly finished his beer.*

Deleted User 01-Dec-20 10:53 AM

*He left, heading for a shuttle to some random place.*

Ensign Cerred King 01-Dec-20 02:27 PM

"Bees knees? What does that mean?"

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 01-Dec-20 04:09 PM

“It’s like something cool ya know? Like it’s the coolest thing.”

Ensign Cerred King 01-Dec-20 05:18 PM

*Capri blinked and then nodded, smiling.* "Ooohhhhh, okay! Neat!"

Artistic\_Almanac 01-Dec-20 05:51 PM

*She chuckled and stood up.* “I hope you’ll forgive me gentlemen, but I’m really tired after my trip and need to go home” *she stood up and made her way out*

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 01-Dec-20 05:57 PM

“Well see ya later doll.”

Ensign Cerred King 01-Dec-20 06:50 PM

*Capri nodded and gave her wave, smiling a little.*

Johnny Ferentz BOT 01-Dec-20 11:02 PM

*Johnny heard the band call him up. Standing he winked at Capri before getting up there.* “Rudolph the Martin arrangement.” *Seeing then all nod he turned around smiling.* “Good evening guys and dolls tonight we’ve decided to kick off the night with an old classic.” *He smiled as they went into the song letting the holiday classic ring out in the bar.*

Lt. Girak Mayott 02-Dec-20 12:23 AM

*After a bit of travel he finally arrived and headed over towards the band. He took out his PADD and sent a message to Nazral hoping to meet up with her. The meeting location he sent was by the band.* @Artistic\_Almanac

Ensign Cerred King 02-Dec-20 01:31 AM

*Capri smiled and sat back with his second drink, listening to the music and bobbing his head a little to the tune.*

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 02-Dec-20 07:15 AM

*As they finish he smiles to himself as he gives the signal for their best number before they went into ‘fly me to the moon’ fulfilling Naz’s request.* (edited)

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 10:02 AM

*bubble* *After getting the message she ran back to the bar, looking around and spotting her blue man. Well. One of. She ran over to him and flung her arms around his neck* “Rownannnn!!!”

Lt. Girak Mayott 02-Dec-20 10:45 AM

*His head turned once he heard her voice and a huge smile appeared on his face.* “Naz!” *He caught her mid hug and brought her close to him. The embrace was so comforting he wanted to hold her like this forever.* “I’ve missed you so much.” *He whispered into her ear and kissed her head then brought her face close to his and kissed her on the lips.*

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 10:51 AM

*She smiled and kissed him back enthusiastically.* “I’ve missed you too! ...it seems so much has happened while I have been away! ...speaking of” *she shuffled her feet nervously* “I need to talk to you about something.”

Lt. Girak Mayott 02-Dec-20 10:56 AM

*He noticed her nervousness and dropped his smile.* “Of course. You can tell me anything. We have so much to catch up on.” *He took her hand in his.* “Is everything alright?”

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 10:59 AM

*She swallowed and looked at him sweetly* “well...first I need to ask your forgiveness because I’ve done something you might be angry about...”

Lt. Girak Mayott 02-Dec-20 11:17 AM

*His mind went to straight to her falling in love with someone else. But that wouldn’t make sense after the hug and kiss so it had to be something else right?* “Well...perhaps we should sit down somewhere more private and talk about this...?” *They are after all still standing close to the band and in public.*

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 11:17 AM

*She looked around. He made a good point.* “do you want to just grab a seat in the corner or go somewhere else?” *she asked him, giving his hand a nervous squeeze*

Lt. Girak Mayott 02-Dec-20 11:22 AM

*He glanced around and spotted an empty table that was more secluded.* “Over there should be good.” *It of course depended on the news if it was secluded enough.*

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 02-Dec-20 11:23 AM

*As they talked the band started on the song ‘Aint that a kick in the head.’* (edited)

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 11:24 AM

*She nodded and lead him gently over to the table, sitting down across from him. She twirled her hair nervously and sighed* “you know I was gone for a bit longer than I was supposed to be...right?”

Lt. Girak Mayott 02-Dec-20 11:27 AM

*He nodded.* “Yes, it should have been a few days or a week. Then we lost track of your shuttle...I thought the worst had happened.” *His eyebrows turned up in worry.*

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 11:29 AM

*She swallowed and leaned forwards a little to whisper* “we went through some sort of time vortex...ended up ten years in the future and....well I brought someone back that you need to meet...”

Lt. Girak Mayott 02-Dec-20 11:36 AM

*This was completely unexpected.* “Ten years?” *He leaned back in his chair. A lot could have happened in ten years. And she brought someone from the future? The news was really starting to worry him.* “Who did you bring back?!” *He gasped antenna starting to quiver.* (edited)

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 11:39 AM

*She shook her head* “we were only there for six months and we kept our heads down for the most part. But future you was so distraught about this person and kept pushing me to bring him back and I....” *she sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose and then looked at him* “Row...I’d you were given the chance to change the past- our future- would you take it? Well...I mean obviously you would because you wouldn’t let me say no”

Lt. Girak Mayott 02-Dec-20 11:47 AM

*He sat in silence for a moment while trying to take this all in. Apparently future him was so set on having Naz do something that she couldn’t or wasn’t allowed to refuse. It had to be something very important in order for him to break so many rules. Her question about changing their future for the better was an obvious yes to him. But to disobey the rules of time travel? He nodded his head looking at her.* “You know I’d do anything for you, for us. So you’re right, I’d take it.”

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 11:48 AM

*She smiled softly at him, taking his hands in hers and squeezing them.* “you know I love you...and...well it might be WAY too soon but...I love him too and...I think you need to meet him....you deserve to meet him.” *she swallowed and gave him a nervous smile* “you deserve to meet our son.”

Lt. Girak Mayott 02-Dec-20 07:26 PM

“Our....son?!” *His eyes widened and he smiled then frowned and smiled again as his mind raced.* “Wait we...have a son!? How did...I mean that’s great! But you brought him back? Why? I mean...gosh so many questions...”

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 07:31 PM

*She nodded, she understood his reaction, but she was glad that it was mostly positive. She gave him a soft smile, squeezing his hands again* “apparently you and I figured it out. I mean, I have some ideas from a medical stand point but obviously that wasn’t exactly something I planned to broach with you yet.” *she swallowed, her face dark for a moment as she looked away from him* “he’s sick...they couldn’t cure him. I brought him back because I wanted him to live. I wanted to alter our future so that his future never comes to pass.” *she looked at him, a haunted look in her eyes* “it was horrible there Row...people dying of things we could easily fix now...” *she sighed and shook her head.* “he’s sleeping in my room right now, but later I am going to bring him to Doctor Edwards and get his help. I...I didn’t know how you would react to all of this...if anything I worried you’d be...angry...”

Lt. Girak Mayott 02-Dec-20 08:04 PM

*He gave her hand a squeeze to show his support.* “Oh Nazral. It must have been so difficult to do this.” *His antenna continued to quiver as the reality of the situation began to set in. Was he upset about all this? Upset that she took their future son back in time? Upset that she probably broke at least dozen rules that would change their future for good or bad? He wasn’t entirely sure if he should be upset or more worried. “What....what are you...no..what are WE going to do now? Wait he’s sick? With what? What’s his name?” \*The questions came faster than he could think or speak.*

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 08:08 PM

*She felt her chest swell up at his words, she swallowed to fight back tears of relief. She smiled* “His name is Nazran. Nazran Ch’ranirh” *she said with a smile that faded after a moment, a bitter look crossing her face* “cancer. He has a mass in his chest cavity...”

Lt. Girak Mayott 02-Dec-20 08:53 PM

“Nazran. That’s perfect.” *His face beamed with pride. A father....wow!!!! His demeanor then changed and was somber.* “Cancer? That’s fairly easy to get rid of now. It isn’t in the future?” *What kind of future did she come from?*

Johnny Ferentz BOT 02-Dec-20 08:54 PM

*The band finished their set and John stepped off walking over.* “How was that doll? Just like you imagined?”

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 08:57 PM

*She opened her mouth to respond when Johnny walked over. She smiled up at him* “it was prefect! Thank you Johnny. Oh!” *she turned back to Rownan* “Rownan this is Johnny. He came from the past!” *she then paused, thinking. If Johnny had come from the past then maybe that could help their case. She turned back to Johnny* “I know you don’t like talking about it, but is it okay if I ask you a few questions about how you came here Johnny? It could be really helpful for a personal matter Row and I are dealing with” *she said, reaching across the table and taking Rownan’s hand in hers, smiling at him softly*

Johnny Ferentz BOT 02-Dec-20 09:02 PM

*He stopped and seemed to loose his smile for a minute before swallowing.* “Yeah I guess but only a few. It’s not that I don’t like to talk about it it’s more that I have a hard time realizing that my descendants are older than me now. Just make it speedy would ya?” *He took the old fashioned that was offered to him as he waited for the questions.*

Lt. Girak Mayott 02-Dec-20 09:04 PM

“Thank you, and nice to meet you Johnny.” *He smiled over at Naz again. Better let her take care of the details and explanation. It still felt a little unreal to him.*

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 09:08 PM

*She nodded* “Thank you Johnny. We really appreciate it. I guess my first question would be, not so much how you got here, but why are you still here?”

Johnny Ferentz BOT 02-Dec-20 09:12 PM

“the short story is because they can’t for sure put me back when I came from and with that it could be bad. Apparently I was smoking and drinking so much that my ticker wasn’t doing so good. So when that cap got me in the heart they gave me a new one. If I go back then it could alter the timeline or something like that.”

Artistic\_Almanac 02-Dec-20 10:01 PM

*She nodded. That made sense* “how did they determine that they would be unable to send you back? Surely they could have sent you back anyways even if they were a few years off?”

Johnny Ferentz BOT 02-Dec-20 10:06 PM

“I don’t know. All I know is those temporal guys were talking about it before some guy from some place. Session 30 or something came in and told me it wasn’t going to happen. They released me the next day telling me to get on with my life.”

Artistic\_Almanac 03-Dec-20 06:48 AM

*She hummed, curious. But good to know nonetheless* “Thank you Johnny, that’s been super helpful.” *she said, giving Johnny a grateful smile.*

Johnny Ferentz BOT 03-Dec-20 07:37 AM

“Yeah no problem doll. But why all the questions? You know another guy that is not from his time?”

Artistic\_Almanac 03-Dec-20 08:07 AM

*She frowned and shot Rownan a quick look and then looked back to Johnny with a smile, as if the look between them had not occurred* “something like that”

Lt. Girak Mayott 03-Dec-20 10:49 AM

“Hummmm....looks like this is going to be a bit complicated.” *Johnny for sure was a special case. How would Star Fleet treat their son? It wasn’t his fault Rownan sent him to the past.*

Artistic\_Almanac 03-Dec-20 10:51 AM

*She looked at him and gave his hand a squeeze* “so...do you want to go meet him?” \*she asked with a small smile. She was so determined things were going to be fine. After all, he was already here. It wasn’t like they would try to send him back...right?”

Lt. Girak Mayott 03-Dec-20 11:25 AM

*Rownan smiled then bit his lower lip. Why was he afraid to say yes? This was his son, well future son after all.* “Yes, I think that would be best...” *He took her hand and looked at Johnny.* “We’ll be seeing you around good sir.” (edited)

Artistic\_Almanac 03-Dec-20 11:29 AM

*She smiled, standing. She gave Johnny a friendly pat on the shoulder* “see you around friend!” *she said, leaving with Rownan, looping her arm though his and resting her head on his shoulder*

Johnny Ferentz BOT 03-Dec-20 12:08 PM

“See ya two around.” *As they left he turned around and started for the stage. Picking up a saxophone he played them out.*
