Crew-quarters-1

USS Odyssey

I-I C/T-141 "Ace of Spades" / crew-quarters-1

Crew quarters are much nicer than on most military and even civilian ships; instead of hot-bunked hammocks, each crewmember has their own enclosed space, just large enough for a sleeping bag, and a locker beside it, in groups of about ten bunks.

After 11-Apr-21 12:00 AM

Ensign Varlex 12-Apr-21 08:33 AM

*Varlex would lay claim to the first and best looking quarters on the deck, as he made his way in he would start to unpack*

PO3. Richard Hughes 12-Apr-21 08:48 AM

*By the time Hughes gets down here, he's got much more used to weightlessness again, nimbly finding his way around the cramped labyrinth of narrow tubes and slightly more open spaces. He claims a locker by putting his bag in it, and the bunk beside it by pulling closed the folding plastic 'door'.*

Ensign Varlex 12-Apr-21 08:56 AM

*Varlex finishes up and locks everything he doesn't emediatly need into his locker before he closes his plastic door and secures himself into the hammock for take off*

Ensign Cerred King 12-Apr-21 09:02 AM

*Cerred walked into the quarter and nodded at the other two. He locked away his items and strapped into one of the jump seats, looking at the others and nodding.* "May I joining you? I dont thinking ve met before?"

Ensign Nelyv Etrei BOT 12-Apr-21 09:03 AM

*Nelyv/Nellie (as she was to be known as) found herself a nice looking room abd strapped herself in, PADD floating in front of her with her notes on a Singaporean accent on it. Oh, by the four deities, who thought that accents could be so massively complicated?*

Ensign Cerred King 12-Apr-21 09:06 AM

*He looked over at Nellie and nodded, waving a little. He cocked his head pulled his hair loose, adjusting and braiding it so it was more comfortable.* "Doing okay?" (edited)

Ensign Varlex 12-Apr-21 09:06 AM

"if you don't mind laying with an actual lizard acting human" *he would comment to King through the plastic door* (edited)

Ensign Nelyv Etrei BOT 12-Apr-21 09:07 AM

*Nel gave him a smile and thumbs up even as the PADD began to float down to her lap again. Awww.*

Ensign Cerred King 12-Apr-21 09:12 AM

"Is that offer, Mr. Lisard?" *He joked with a wink,* "But nah, I dont minding. My name Cerred. But for now my name Ksawery Bartek, I from Szczecin in Poland." (edited)

Ensign Nelyv Etrei BOT 12-Apr-21 09:15 AM

"Ooh, sparks." *Nelyv giggled to herself.* "My name is Nelly. I from Singapore in southeast Asia. The place where you grow up, must be quite cold, huh?"

Ensign Varlex 12-Apr-21 09:16 AM

*Varlex doesn't seem to respond to the joke but he answers back in a very cold tone* "Jocke, Hired gun, wherefrom? Does it matter? no" *he then audible rolls over, seemingly our lizard friend is in character already* (edited)

Ensign Cerred King 12-Apr-21 09:22 AM

"Is chilly in vinter time, but not so bad. Is near Baltic sea and Germany so ve have ocean climate. Singapore is southeast? Must be very varm place."

Ensign Nelyv Etrei BOT 12-Apr-21 09:23 AM

"Very warm. In the morning quite comfortable, in the afternoon about three pm, wah, jialat, very hot. Like oven."

Ensign Cerred King 12-Apr-21 09:28 AM

"We get some days vhen vezer gets up to low 30s C. Is no so bad though." *He said with a shrug, pulling out his PADD to review the language packet. He knew it inside and out but it couldn't hurt to be sure.*

Ensign Nelyv Etrei BOT 12-Apr-21 09:34 AM

"I see, I see! Can. I don't mind visiting some day!" *Nelyv blinked hard after.* "Oh, by the four deities, the Singaporean way of talking is *weird...*"

PO3. Richard Hughes 12-Apr-21 09:37 AM

*Hughes decides to join in, consciously returning his accent to the British stereotype it once was years ago, back in the Army, before he ended up in the linguistic melting pot of future United Earth. He pulls open the door to his quarters, and pokes his head out, waving his hand a little.* "Junior technician Hughes. England born, Luna migrant."

Ensign Cerred King 12-Apr-21 09:38 AM

"Vhat do you needing help with?" *He looked over and cocked his head.*

PO3. Richard Hughes 12-Apr-21 09:41 AM

*Hughes hadn't thought it through that far.* "Oh, uh- nothing. I just wanted to say hello."

Ensign Cerred King 12-Apr-21 09:45 AM

*He waved at Richard and motioned for him to join them with a smile.* "Come sit. I dint sink ve meeting before now?"

Ensign Nelyv Etrei BOT 12-Apr-21 09:52 AM

*Nelyv smiled and waved at the human. But then again everyone looked human - people probably weren't human even if they looked so.*

PO3. Richard Hughes 12-Apr-21 09:56 AM

*Hughes smiles, glad to see that he's being welcomed. He pushes himself out of the bunk and over the compartment, easily compensating for the acceleration, and strapping himself down into a seat.* "No, I don't believe so."

Ensign Cerred King 12-Apr-21 11:41 AM

\*Ve hev now. My nem Cerred King. But for purpose of mission, is Ksawery Bartek."

Ensign Cerred King 12-Apr-21 11:49 AM

*After a bit, he unstrapped from the seat and left, going to explore what he could.*

Ensign Nelyv Etrei BOT 12-Apr-21 12:00 PM

*Nelyv got bored soon after and floated out to the hallway.*

Ensign Varlex 12-Apr-21 12:27 PM

*varlex once it was safe would come out of his compartment*

PO3. Richard Hughes 12-Apr-21 12:58 PM

*Hughes stays here, planning to unpack the things from his bag and put them in the locker. As he pulls his bag out of the locker in order to unpack it, however, he finds that he put the bag in the front of a used locker. He spends some time taking out the items already present, wondering who it was who last used this bunk.*

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 04:06 PM

*a bubble with Kaylee who had been here the entire time appeared*

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 05:38 PM

*Survol waited pateintly within the crew quarters, working on organizational structures for supplies on his padd as he typically did during off-hours to maximize ship efficiencies. He would be along to check on what supplies they'd be obtaining on the trip and be ready for any minor maintenance issues as a helping hand. As typical, he kept quiet and to himself.*

1

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 05:53 PM

*Kaylee was mostly here in case... well incase shit hit the fan*

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 05:55 PM

*He paused in his work, brow wrinkling momentarily as his sensitive Vulcan ears caught something. Survol looked up from his padd, noting the others who still were in the compartment.* "Do you hear that buzzing noise?"

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 05:57 PM

*Kaylee Kaylee laying on her bed looked at him* "No, not real.." *Then again there was something she listened closer* "Yes i think i might, just barely, it doesn't annoy me though"

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 05:59 PM

"Curious." *Survol set his padd aside and stoop, prim and straight. He spared a quick glance toward Kaylee, quirking his brow. Then, he titled his head upward toward the ceiling.* "It's coming from above. Through the vents."

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 06:07 PM

*Kaylee looked at him and got up as she was a Tactical and very protective of her crew she looked up trying to see if she could see where it was coming from* "Its an early earth ship it might just be normal but you never know"

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 06:20 PM

*Survol stared at the vent for a long time, It was situated in the middle of the room, a place where he couldn't get a foothold on one of the sleeping compartments to get it open.* "Normal or not, it is distracting." (edited)

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 06:34 PM

*Kaylee looked looked at him as she floated there* "I can check it out with you just to be safe."

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 06:36 PM

*Survol nodded, agreeable to the suggestion. He grabbed an engineering kit from his bunk and performed a somersault off of the floor to land on the ceiling, now facing upside down to the way he had been before.* "Any assistance would be beneficial."

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 06:39 PM

*Kaylee would also push off and land on the ceiling now upside down* "Well im not that great with fixing things or engineering or stuff lije that but ill help how i can"

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 06:43 PM

"With a zero-G environment, any objects floating in the air could potentially be a hazard to the crew. If you would be willing to hold the vent and the screws when I detach them from their mounts, perhaps that will suffice. we will see as I get further into this.\* Survol bent to his knees, pulling out a spanner and getting ready to work on the vent.\* "Which department are you in, Ensign?"

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 06:47 PM

*Kaylee nodded to the small job she had to do as that was almost all she prolly could do* "Oh, i am in Tactical sir, posted to the odyssey out of the academy im a freshie"

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 06:53 PM

"You picked an... interesting time to fly on your first voyage. My roommate is tactical. Ensign Monroe, are you familiar with him?" *Survol used his spanner to get the screw out, handing her those first before the grille itself.*

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 06:55 PM

*Kaylee thought fir a moment but it didn't sound familiar* "No im afraid i dont think i am" *Survol seemed surprisingly conversational for a vulcan which surprised kaylee*

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 07:03 PM

"Ah." *Survol was the best conversationalist. After an awkard silence, he found himself with his head in the duct, looking in the direction of the buzzing. His keen eyes found a couple of brackets about a foot into the ductwork which had loose screws, creating the vibration and the ever so slight annoying sound.* "This is going to be difficult to reach."

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 07:07 PM

*Kaylee could clearly see she was smaller than this larger male Vulcan so she wondered* "Well, do you think maybe i could reach it easier since im smaller" *she offered Survol as help*

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 07:09 PM

*Survol popped his head back out of there after nearly getting stuck, which could have proved humorous to those who had sense of humor. He offered Kaylee the spanner and stood upright so he could take the parts she held from her.* "It might be possible. The loose bracket is two ducts down, in the direction I'm standing from the grille." (edited)

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 07:16 PM

*Kaylee would pull her self up and with some slight struggle manage to get into the shaft and she headed towards the loose bracket to retighten the screws, atleast it was something easy, once she reached it she started to tighten the screws.*

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 07:19 PM

*Survol stood there holding the pieces quietly while she worked, not wanting to interrupt her in such a small space. He was as expressionless as ever though he finally inhaled deeply through his nose in a reflexive action of relief when the buzzing noise stopped.*.

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 07:24 PM

*Kaylee as Kaylee finished she made her way back and out of the vent. she thn looked at survol* "I didn't want to be rude, but for a vulcan you seem to like conversation" *She said as she started putting the vent cover back on*

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 07:42 PM

*Once she was out, Survol bent back down to reinstall the grille. He made sure the screws were secure, closed his engineering kit and stood back up in front of Kaylee.* "Thank you for your help. As far as conversation.... it was suggested by Commander Kestra I attempt to be... more patient with the non-Vulcan members of the crew. I am working to engage in what you might call 'small talk'."

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 07:45 PM

*Kaylee would look at him intrigued that the second officer another vulcan recommended it* "Fascinating, i dont often engage in conversation when on duty as it lowers efficiency and is illogical in my opinion"

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 07:48 PM

*Survol quirked his eyebrow for the second time during the conversation.* "You sound like a Vulcan. However, in this instance, our duties are mitigated by a waiting period and there is no efficiency lost when performing a simple task such as tightening a screw to a ducting bracket."

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 07:51 PM

*Kaylee would raise her eyebrow while looking at survol after he said this* "That is a fair point however i dont see this logic in idle conversation when on duty even if you aren't doing anything very important, however i guess you are correct in this instance"

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 07:59 PM

"If you do not wish conversation I do not mind returning to my padd to work on my organizational structures for supplies I am planning on implementing throughout the ship. I was being courteous." *Survol flipped again from the top of the ceiling to change his local vertical to the opposite direction before stepping into his bunk again.*

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 08:02 PM

*Kaylee would flip down and look at him again* "oh no, i dont mind, im actually trying to maybe loosen up on duty too, so i mean if there is anything you wann talk about we can"

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 08:06 PM

*Survol started to reach for his padd but stopped when he saw her looking at him. Instead, he folded his hands in his lap.* "There is nothing in particular I wish to discuss, as I do not share many mutual experiences with you nor work to accomplish to my knowledge. The closest would have been if you had interacted with Ensign Monroe. I do have a matter I am curious about, however."

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 08:09 PM

*Kaylee would also go back to her bunk again and then look back to Survol* "Please feel free to ask anything."

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 08:12 PM

"I've noticed a preponderance of the women on this ship tend to stare..." *Survol shook his head.* "Apologies, that is considered a rude word, send prolonged glances in my direction. Is there something amiss with my hair? I've failed to find any stains upon my uniform."

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 08:21 PM

*Kaylee was suprised by the question but kept her composure* "Oh well i dont know, i mean its not necessarily my opinion but maybe they find you attractive unless the glances have a disgusted look then thats all i can think of it may be"

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 08:22 PM

*Survol grabbed his padd to the side with a snooty little Vulcan look.* "Everyone on this ship also appears to have an unhealthy obsession with mating. Perhaps we have been trapped out of time and away from port for too long."

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 08:27 PM

*Kaylee looked at him and built up the courage to say* "Well sir, not to step out of line or be rude, but maybe youve just forgotten mating is a natural thing, and when we've been trapped out of time and port for as long as we have stress build among the crew so naturally they resort the best method of relieving that stress."

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 08:29 PM

"I have not seen many people engaged in meditation." *Survol countered with a coy shrug.*

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 08:32 PM

*Kaylee then started to lay down the best she could in her bunk* "I meditate often sir and very well, but it doesn't relieve as much as mating does"

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 08:34 PM

"I don't believe that is scientifically the case, though it justifies many people's out of control emotions to perceive as such, I presume. A placebo." *When she moved, Survol tapped into his padd and started his mock organization of supplies.*

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 08:38 PM

*Kaylee would giggle as survol had no idea that didnt even apply to her in this case as she's never even done it* "That is fair, but just know i dont fit into that\*

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 08:40 PM

"It is not my place to judge your way of life." *He sounded quite judgy, despite his words.* "Though at least you appear to have some logic beyond many I have spoken to thus far. Unless..." *he paused.* "...you were not engaging in the human expression known as 'sarcasm', were you?"

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 12-Apr-21 08:42 PM

*Kaylee would look over* "No, i was not be sarcastic ivwas being honest and 100 % trues to you"

Lt. JG Survol 12-Apr-21 08:45 PM

"Hmm." \*Survol said non-committally, there being a limit to his attempts to have cordial conversation, returning his focus to his padd while they waited for something to happen with the mission.

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 13-Apr-21 12:13 AM

*Kaylee would go back to laying there not doing much takingva PADD to look over for a bit*

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 12:32 AM

*Survol tapped away on his PADD on his his bunk, the sound echoing as he did so in the metallic compartment. He expertly kept himself busy as he always did.*

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 13-Apr-21 12:34 AM

*Kaylee would start hearing something again, this time it was a louder buzzing* "Oh, ok now that is irritating,"

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 12:35 AM

*With no description as to the irritating, Survol paused to listen for himself. He glanced up from his PADD.* “I do not hear anything. Are you referring to something within your work or your personal life?”

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 13-Apr-21 12:36 AM

*Kaylee looked at him confused* "No, that buzzing, how can you not hear it this time its louder than last time"

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 12:39 AM

Curious. Perhaps you might show the direction it’s coming from?” *Survol set the padd down once again, ready for thrilling ops action!*

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 13-Apr-21 12:42 AM

*Kaylee looked around* "i dont know, hmmm" *It was a 90% possibility it was in the vents again* "Sounds like up in the vents again but i cant exactly tell"

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 12:44 AM

“The same place.” *His voice sounded rather flat but was it any different than usual? He stood from his compartment.* “Ah. The way I was seated must have blocked the sound.”

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 13-Apr-21 12:45 AM

*Kaylee looked at the ceiling* "Its intriguing how they managed to use such crude ships without them just falling apart"

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 12:51 AM

“After reading about first contact day in preparation for the event, I found myself surprised humans managed to create a functioning warp drive in the first place.” *He picked up his engineering kit and briskly flipped again to land himself on the ceiling.*

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 13-Apr-21 12:56 AM

*Kaylee looked at him, that didn't stand well with her, sure she thought the ships were crude but that hurt* "Hey, we managed too do it cause we always make it out of hard times plus we fixed our world faster than you vulcans." *Kaylee didn't mean that as a insult just a jab back at survol for what he said*

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 01:02 AM

*Survol was devoid of emotion about the entire topic.* "Vulcans take care to ensure all statistical probabilities are accounted for. Humanity's 'faster' ascent was also largely due to a Vulcan ship happening to be in the vicinity at the same time to make contact." *He undid the grate much in the same manner as before, meticulous and going a little more slowly to demonstrate his thoroughness in a real manner.* (edited)

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 13-Apr-21 01:04 AM

*Kaylee sat on her bunk but didnt go up this time thinking it was prolly a bigger problem that last time that she prolly couldn't fix*

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 01:11 AM

*Survol took a peek inside. This time one of the brackets, albeit a different one, had popped off completely. It floated and rattled against the side wall. Survol reached inside and took the bracket out of there. He waited a moment to make sure the ducting would hold, but it appeared as if the bracket was just there as an additional safety measure.* "Do you have any idea as to how long before this mission will be commencing?"

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 13-Apr-21 08:58 AM

*Kaylee shook her head* "Not exactly i know basically just as much as everyone else here, its gonna tske however long it takes i guess"

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 01:31 PM

*Survol noted the ship movements, a sensation very different than the starships he was accustomed to. Naturally, he displayed no discomfort from the shifts.* "It appears we are finally en route."

Lt. Iron Forge 13-Apr-21 01:32 PM

(We have been en route for almost a day irp

Ensign Cerred King 13-Apr-21 01:33 PM

*Cerred had eventually made it put of the void and had been snoozing in his bunk, missing the alert to strap in again.*

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 01:54 PM

*Survol glanced up to note Cerred. He inclined his head casually toward him, finding Cerred to be one of the few agreeable people who had not been bothering him in conversations as of late.* "Greetings, Ensign."

1

Ensign Varlex 13-Apr-21 02:10 PM

*Varlex goes back to laying down in the heat Hammock he picked out*

1

Ensign Cerred King 13-Apr-21 02:54 PM

*Cerred was woken up by the floating and his head bumping the vunk above him. He turned and rubbed his eyes, seeing Survol.* "Hey Survol....how are you?" *He said between yawns.*

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 02:57 PM

"I am operating at normal efficiency with no signs of fatigue or impairment." *Survol tapped into his PADD mechanically. While he would have generally stopped there, he was making the effort to be more patient and engage in the small talk.* "How about yourself?"

Ensign Cerred King 13-Apr-21 03:08 PM

"Alright. Heet my head on ze floating but okay. Guess I should getting up and vander. Ees not much else to doing for eentel at moment." *He said as he got up and adjusted his glasses, speaking slowly to compensate for his accent.*

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 03:12 PM

"Do you require medical assistance? Head injuries should not go unaddressed." *Survol tilted his head at him curiously from the bunk.* "I was not aware we were allowed to 'wander' as it may be. My orders were simply to report to these quarters."

Ensign Cerred King 13-Apr-21 03:17 PM

"Nah, ees leettle bump, nothing bad. And not vander specific but uh...check out hebitet area. I clean mess area yesterday. Vas coffee stuff everywhere. Food is good though."

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 03:18 PM

"Curious. Would you be averse to someone accompanying you? In the interest of science and exploration, of course." *Definitely not because he was bored!*

2

Ensign Cerred King 13-Apr-21 03:22 PM

"Not et all,come along!" *He said with a smile and climbed out of the bunk. He quickly pulled some band t-shirt out of his bag and pulled it on over his Starfleet undershirt and grabbing his boots. He motioned for Survol to follow as he pulled his hair back into a ponytail.* "Come along."

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 03:29 PM

*Survol stood, ducking to avoid any issue with his head hitting the top of the small bunk and tucked his padd under his arm. He wore simple, black attire. Not one to stand out or make any sort of statement with his clothing. It was bad enough he couldn't simply wear his uniform on a mission such as this. He also had a black beanie which he put on to cover his pointed ears should they run into . It was early yet, but if he were out of the bunk, he didn't want to take any risks should they run out of time. He readied himself to follow Cerred.*

Ensign Cerred King 13-Apr-21 03:33 PM

*Once Cerred got his boots on and tied, he looked back and headed out towards the mess area, motioning for Survol to follow.*

Lt. JG Survol 13-Apr-21 03:40 PM

*Survol walked after Cerred with measured paces toward wherever the intelligence officer headed.*

Ensign Cerred King 13-Apr-21 03:42 PM

*Cerred sighed in relief as he walked in and saw the mess was still clean. He pointed out the food cupboard to Survol with a smile.* "Is some vegen food in there too. Better than replicetor."

Ensign Kaylee Anna Johnson BOT 14-Apr-21 08:46 PM

*Kaylee would leave the crew Qaurters too go too the other one,maybe to meet some people*

Ensign Cerred King 18-Apr-21 02:05 PM

*Cerred came back and flopped on the bunk, rubbing his eyes and taking off his glasses with a yawn.*

Lt. JG Survol 18-Apr-21 02:16 PM

*Having Followed Cerred, he stopped at the door to the crew quarters, steadying himself in the lack of gravity by gripping the edge of the door frame* "I am going to check in with control, and then head to the cargo bay and ensure everything is being delivered in an organized fashion to ensure the efficient transfer once we arrive back on the Odyssey."

Ensign Cerred King 18-Apr-21 03:07 PM

*Cerred looked over and blinked, nodding slowly as Survol spoke.* "Good call. Let them know our group got back as well.

Lt. JG Survol 18-Apr-21 03:09 PM

*The ship started to move a little, but Survol remained steady. He put up a little Vulcan salute toward Cerred and floated off toward primary controls.*

Ensign Cerred King 18-Apr-21 03:21 PM

*Cerred returned the ta'al and held an arm up to keep from floating up towards the upper bunk.*
