Shuttle-bay

USS Odyssey

[Archived] USS Odyssey (Alternate) / shuttle-bay

Narrator BOT 19-Apr-21 10:18 PM

The shuttle entering the bay will immediately realize that this is not the Odyssey they know. There's no forcefield over the door, and the shuttles are all parked next to ladders that lead to the exit. Gravity in this ship is powered by thrust that changes the direction from Starfleet norms. The floor is now the shuttlebay door.

Captain Ezarah Ryn 19-Apr-21 10:48 PM

*Ryn left the shuttle and instantly felt gravity pulling her the wrong way. She was hanging onto what she knew was the floor, and her brain reeled with the oddity of it all. From her location, it was a short climb to the exit, so she started to climb, looking down only once to make sure the others were following.*

Lt. Cmdr. T'Pel Kestra 19-Apr-21 10:53 PM

*T'Pel stepped out, and almost fell over but caught herself,* "What in Surak's name?"

Ensign Vidira Pax 19-Apr-21 10:53 PM

*Vidira nearly fell out of the shuttle.* "Agh what is-?!" *She scrambled to reorient herself before she crashed into T'Pel and Ryn.* "What is going on?"

Nazran Ch’ranirh BOT 19-Apr-21 10:56 PM

*Holds onto Mevi’s hand as they shift to the new gravity.* “Ooops, shuda told yah about that. Neat huh?”

Dr. Rownan Ch’ranirh BOT 19-Apr-21 10:58 PM

*He heard commotion from the people ahead so he was a little more prepared for something strange.* “Oh my...this is strange..” *He loses balance for a bit but quickly recovers.*

Lt. Cmdr. T'Pel Kestra 19-Apr-21 10:59 PM

*Child...so help me...,* "Explain..."

“The gravity isn’t the same on my ship. See, it’s different.”

Dr. Rownan Ch’ranirh BOT 19-Apr-21 11:01 PM

“I think she wants a more scientific answer.”

Nazran Ch’ranirh BOT 19-Apr-21 11:02 PM

*He shrugs.* “Beats me.”

Counselor Mevi Wyse 19-Apr-21 11:04 PM

*Stumbling, but managing to catch herself on the side of the shuttle, Mevi suppresses a cuss as she rights herself.* “Oh fun. Fun fun fun.”

Captain Ezarah Ryn 19-Apr-21 11:04 PM

"The artificial gravity is offline," *Ryn explained from her position above them on the ladder.* "Weren't you listening to Ensign Romyar? They told him in the instruction packet." *This kind of antiquated technology was something she actually understood quite well, from Ryn's early days pioneering Trill's space program.* "They're getting gravity through thrust. It's probably why they're circling the area instead of staying at station. It means that instead of going down, gravity is forced backwards, towards the nacelles."

Counselor Mevi Wyse 19-Apr-21 11:05 PM

“Lovely. Feels like we’re living in the early days of space travel all over again.”

Captain Ezarah Ryn 19-Apr-21 11:06 PM

"Everyone alright?" *She called down, looking to make sure everyone was secure on the ladder before she started climbing again.*

Nazran Ch’ranirh BOT 19-Apr-21 11:07 PM

“Backwards gravity? Cool! That sounds better then...’space gravity,’ or ‘Almost gravity’....or...” *He kept making up names for the gravity.*

Counselor Mevi Wyse 19-Apr-21 11:07 PM

“Aye ma’am. Just getting our sea legs. C’mon Naz. Show Auntie Mevi the way.” *Mevi calls over to Ezarah, still trying to get used to the strange new orientation*

Ensign Vidira Pax 19-Apr-21 11:09 PM

*Vidira began to climb the ladder, this was...interesting.*

Dr. Rownan Ch’ranirh BOT 19-Apr-21 11:09 PM

“Yes Captain!” *Rownan called as he clung to the ladder.*

Counselor Mevi Wyse 19-Apr-21 11:10 PM

*Mevi heads over to the ladder, glad she had not eaten anything before heading out on this mission. Would be embarrassing to hork it all up.*

Lt. Cmdr. T'Pel Kestra 19-Apr-21 11:11 PM

*T'Pel followed quietly. It was an odd sensation she was adjusting to.*

Captain Ezarah Ryn 19-Apr-21 11:12 PM

*She made it to the door, which opened like normal as the sensors recognized someone in front of them, and climbed through to #hallway-8.*

Ensign Vidira Pax 19-Apr-21 11:13 PM

*She climbed through the door.*

Lt. Cmdr. T'Pel Kestra 19-Apr-21 11:20 PM

*T'Pel followed through.*

Dr. Rownan Ch’ranirh BOT 19-Apr-21 11:21 PM

*Follows after everyone.*

Dr. Rownan Ch’ranirh BOT 24-Apr-21 04:52 PM

*Once he and TPel made it down the ladder he headed for the shuttle.*

Ensign Vidira Pax BOT 24-Apr-21 04:54 PM

*To the shuttle.*

Captain Ezarah Ryn 24-Apr-21 04:54 PM

*Ryn followed them down to the shuttle.*

Lt. Xander Spica 24-Apr-21 04:55 PM

*He walked to the shuttle, going inside.*

Counselor Mevi Wyse 24-Apr-21 05:36 PM

*Mevi follows to the shuttle, and looks over at Ezarah for a moment before settling into her seat, sighing to herself.*
