*they enter the market*

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 02:42 PM

*She looked around excitedly* "Do you think they've got snakes here? Raphael needs a friend."

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 02:44 PM

"You keep snakes in your quarters. That cool" *he looks around* "Well I would love to get some traditionally Talaxian Literature to add to my library. Personally I would like it to an antique."

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 02:45 PM

"Just one, at the moment. What kind of literature are you into?"

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 02:46 PM

" I like very much realistic fiction. I find it really offers an insight into one's culture" *he pauses* " Well do you want to look for snakes or books first"

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 02:47 PM

"Let's find books. Maybe I can find something on snake care. They're probably a good deal different from Earth snakes."

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 02:48 PM

"yes" *they start walking to look for books* "Well do you like to read"

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 02:49 PM

"Yep, old science fiction and mysteries, plus the odd thriller."

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 02:50 PM

"That nice. What you favorite Earth novel. My personal favorite is To Kill a Mockingbird"

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 02:50 PM

"It's gotta be The Andromeda Strain. I love old science fiction, it feels so surreal" (edited)

Entharan salesman BOT 06-Oct-20 02:50 PM

*Someone has different ideas; as they pass, this young man with a series of what look like small pig snouts running up the centre of his forehead calls out to them.* "Ho there, good citizens!" *He is quite possibly the first person ever to say this.* "Do you ever have to deal with liquid spills in your work? Most military people do, from time to time."

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 02:51 PM

"Yeah, sometimes I spill coffee all over my papers and its a huge hassle"

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 02:53 PM

" Occanisaly, *he smiles at him* "We are not military either. My dear Salesmen"

Entharan salesman BOT 06-Oct-20 02:54 PM

"Ah, my mistake. You must be from that wonderful ship I heard about then, the one from half way across the galaxy! Well, I'm glad to hear you have this problem over there, otherwise my market would be rather small!" *His voice lowers.* "You see, I sell sponges. But not just any sponges. Magical sponges."

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 02:54 PM

"Tell me about your "magical sponges"

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 02:56 PM

"Are they alive?"

Entharan salesman BOT 06-Oct-20 02:57 PM

*The man reaches down under his market stall, and pulls out a small brown spongelike object, which he briefly sniffs with his forehead before handing it over.* "As a matter of fact, they are. This sponge is made of a wonderful little fungus from about twenty parsecs away. It feeds on almost any liquid, you see." *He pours some water from a small bottle into a dish, and places the sponge in. The sponge takes in the water very quickly, and it seems to be dry afterwards.* "See? Magic!"

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 02:58 PM

"Oh my gosh that is amazing" *he stares in amazement* (edited)

(hehe accidents)

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 02:58 PM

"Hmm...that's really cool, but do they need maintenance?"

Entharan salesman BOT 06-Oct-20 03:02 PM

"You need to give them a bit of water at least every week, either through use or just by dripping it onto them, but otherwise there's no maintenance required."

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:03 PM

"Seems kinda cruel...don't they need social interaction with their own kind?"

Entharan salesman BOT 06-Oct-20 03:03 PM

"No; it's a fungus."

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:03 PM

"I've met some smart fungi." (edited)

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 03:03 PM

"Their have been fungi that have been found to be sentient"

Entharan salesman BOT 06-Oct-20 03:05 PM

"Well, not this one. All the fungal cells are identical; it's essentially a mould. I'm not scientist, but I don't think you can get a brain when all the cells are identical."

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:06 PM

"Can you conclusively prove that he isn't sentient?"

Entharan salesman BOT 06-Oct-20 03:07 PM

*The man hands it over for inspection. It's a brown blob, slightly squishy and about as dry to the touch as desert sand.* "Can you conclusively prove that you are?"

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:07 PM

*She holds the fungus up* "Hello." *She waits for a response* (edited)

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 03:08 PM

"Yes I can when I look into a mirror I recognize myself. That means I am sentient *he laughs a little bit*

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:09 PM

"Perhaps we should go up to the labs and have this little fellow tested for signs of intelligence"

Entharan salesman BOT 06-Oct-20 03:10 PM

*The fungus does nothing but sit in Vera's hands.* "Well, I'm afraid I don't have a mirror with me. You can do that if you want, but I'm afraid you'll have to buy it."

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:10 PM

"Darn. How much?"

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 03:10 PM

(going to use the tupperbot to play the fungi

Entharan salesman BOT 06-Oct-20 03:12 PM

"Eight Jitaln. A twenty percent discount, just for you." *That's his 'ethical questions have been raised regarding my merchandise' rate.*

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:14 PM

"Yay!" *She fumbled around in her pocket for some currency, but came up short. She looked at Drell*

Entharan salesman BOT 06-Oct-20 03:14 PM

*Oh no. They're not going to ask for... credit... are they?*

Magical Fungi BOT 06-Oct-20 03:21 PM

*he says in a squrimy voice* "help me this man tored from my family to use my a sponge. Please he killed my brothers and sisters and made clones of me put his man in the prison. *people start hearing the Fungi and people start beating him up for keeping a sentient creature in prison*

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 03:26 PM

"Vera we got to get out here people are already throwing moltov cocktails at the salesman. Or we could join it could be fun." *he smilee* (edited)

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:26 PM

"Perhaps...we should take our leave. Can't let this fellow get hurt" *She gestures to the sponge*

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 03:27 PM

" We need to get the rest of the sponges." *he runs and grabs a bunch of the sponges, he has pretty bad burns*

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:29 PM

*She grabs more sponges* (edited)

Entharan salesman BOT 06-Oct-20 03:30 PM

*You have an odd feeling, like the opposite of a sneeze, and as the mob disappears into thin air the man takes the sponge out of your hands.* "No, no, they told me this wouldn't happen again! Oh, no..." *He starts to pack up, in an awful hurry.* "Just, um, wash off the spores, I guess? Then you should stop hallucinating?" *A giant pink elephant stands on him as he runs away towards the spaceport, swearing profusely, but he doesn't seem to notice.*

*He left behind one of the sponges though, seemingly by accident.*

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:32 PM

*She picks him up and gives him a hug* "I'm sorry"

Magical Fungi BOT 06-Oct-20 03:33 PM

*the sponges yells* "Arrest him" \*people start a citizen's arrest with all the looting around the market it looks like a warzone. He is taken to Talaxian Security and put into a holding cell

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 03:34 PM

*he wakes up on the ground and says* "That was quite a good trip"

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:34 PM

*She pats the sponge* "Mm hmm. I wonder if he really is sentient?"

Magical Fungi BOT 06-Oct-20 03:35 PM

*the sponge whispers* "I am"

Lt. Iron Forge 06-Oct-20 03:35 PM

[D]*A shuttle takes off from a nearby alley, speeding off at the velocity shared by exposed charlatans everywhere.* (edited)

Captain Ezarah Ryn 06-Oct-20 03:36 PM

[D] Apparently the sponge's spores are still causing Drell and Jaiden to hallucinate, because the salesman got away harmed. It was a hallucination anyway, so the man's only crime was selling psychotropic sponges.

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 03:36 PM

"Oh"*he says very dazed* "better get to sickbay" *he holds a sponge* " You are my love you are amazon"

(no (edited)

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:37 PM

"Hey, he may not speak but he might be able to understand. He might not be interested."

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 03:41 PM

*he lays down in the market still very high*

Lt. Iron Forge 06-Oct-20 03:46 PM

[D]*Drell is enveloped by the gentle blue of an Annular Confinement beam as he's transported into Sickbay.*

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 03:47 PM

"Heyyyyyyy"

"Oh well." *She stood up and brushed herself off, still feeling a bit woozy*

Lt. Iron Forge 06-Oct-20 03:50 PM

Ensign Zoe McDonald 06-Oct-20 04:20 PM

*She bought some roots and headed back to the orbital facility*

<Not an event bot> BOT 06-Oct-20 08:20 PM

[D] *Just as things seemed nice and calm a new stall had opened in the back ends of the market. On display were a bunch of carpets and little balled up a runches of fur. The front of the stand simply read "expanding rugs!"*

HismajestyGoshimomo 06-Oct-20 09:19 PM

"Wow last time I remember this place it was in a riot. But that was a hallucination it sounds like. *he says in a descending tone* " Well what do you want at the market John"

@Seaweaver

*he buys some Talaxian manuscripts and beams directly to his quarters*

Seaweaver 06-Oct-20 09:37 PM

*As sea watched Drell run off he assumed he had better places to be before slowly browsing the market*

Lt. Cmdr. T'Pel Kestra 07-Oct-20 12:27 AM

<Shop Keep> "Good day to you my friend! Is there something specific that you are looking for?" *A large Talaxian with a more orangish hue asked. He smelled of garlic.*

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 12:30 AM

*Sea looked up in suprise, first he was just admiring the signs as he wondered aimlessly but now he realized that once he looked up the rest of the market was just as lovely* "Yeah actually. I'm looking to spice up my home a bit and was looking for some things to decorate it with"

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 12:43 AM

"We have rugs, paintings, curtains, throw pillows...did you have something specific in mind?" *The shop keep answered, ushering Sea in with a grand gesture of his arm.*

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 12:47 AM

"A new painting sounds nice. A bunch of my crewmates got some a while back. I've been a little jelious ever since."

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 12:49 AM

*The shop keep lead him over to a rack that had a few stacked back to back. Landscapes, space scenes, sexy people of many different races.* "What is your pleasure, Sir?"

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 12:55 AM

"Well. I like some of these landscapes. The space scenes look cool too. Do you have any of a person floating helplessly through space?"

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 12:59 AM

*He gave a thunderous laugh,* "Something more psychological, eh? I may." *He wandered over to another pile of paintings,* "I am going to assume living in space produces a similar feeling because you are in luck." *He said and pulled out a big painting of a man floating, a planet off in the distance. There was also one of a diner on an asteroid with an astronaut, a woman, and an alien bartender.*

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 01:02 AM

"Ooh I like both the man floating and the diner. How much for those?" (edited)

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 01:18 AM

*He looked from Sea to the paintings and then back,* "For you? 50 credits each."

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 01:19 AM

"I'll take them! Oooh that's fun to say. I like shopping!" *He says as he looks for a clue as to what to do next*

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 01:22 AM

*The Talaxian laughed again and wrapped up the pictures,* "Shopping while on vacation is always fun. Momentos of your time away. I am glad you are happy, my friend." *Once everything was paid for and wrapped up, he handed the bag over,* "Do come back when you are around this way again!"

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 01:23 AM

*Taking the bag he asked about some other products* "Hey you said you had rugs right? I don't know how big my private bspace is but I'd love one"

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 01:27 AM

*The man smiled and gave a nod, moving to his stash of rugs in a corner. Large, medium, and small, all in many shapes an colors.* "We have one that looks like sand, another like grass. Then there are the intricate patters of my people to brighten any room!"

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 01:30 AM

"The grass one looks kind of cool but I don't think it'll be soft enough. Do you have anything I could take thats like really really fluffy" *He asked holding the bag and looking at the carpets as if he wasn't interested in any on display*

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 01:34 AM

" Fluffy...fluffy...oh! Fur? Rather something like fur...I have just the thing." *He disappeared for a moment and came back with a large pale circular rug,* "It will warm any room, and you can also entertain lovers on it." *He said and gave a wink wink, nudge nudge.*

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 01:35 AM

"Not sure how well that would help me. I hold no lover nor do I plan to. Plus it looks a little big for my room"

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 01:36 AM

*The man shrugged and set it aside going back for a medium square, black and soft a rabbit fur.*

"How about this, hmm? It's soft."

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 01:38 AM

"Still a bit too big. Pardon for saying but I may end up looking elsewhere for a rug. I loved your paintings though"

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 01:49 AM

\*These are all the rugs I have. I am sorry."

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 01:50 AM

"That's fine. Thank you for the paintings though!" *He said enthusiastically as he continued to browse the market. At one point he saw a small stand selling rugs and carpets and decided to take a gander at it*

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 01:54 AM

"Welcome...welcome." *Came a soft melodic voice from a small woman. She had big green eyes, and soft red hair, and a bright flowery dress,* "What can I help you find?"

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 01:55 AM

"I'm looking for a carpet to put in my room. It's rather small but I don't know exactly how much. Kinda just trying to get a feel for it"

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 01:59 AM

*She walked around and started pulling smaller rugs,* "Many of these are nice and small." *Rope rugs, embroidery rugs, fur rugs, shag rugs.*

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 02:00 AM

"Fur sounds good. But I need to make sure it's just the right size. Got anything special? Like a DIY rug?"

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 02:07 AM

*She smiled sweetly,* "Actually...I think I do." *She scampered off a moment, returning with a small ball of fluff,* "This one may suit you perfectly. It's a fuzzy moss that grows on a planet near here. If you pour water on it,it grows and fills a space."

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 02:08 AM

"Wait really? Is it safe? Like will I get sick from it?"

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 02:11 AM

"Oh no! It's perfectly safe. It draws in nutrients from the air, though you may need to water it every once in a while so it keeps it's shape. But it is very low maintenance and it provides clean air! It would be perfect for any room. I actually have one in mine and I *love* stepping on the fuzzy softness first thing in the morning."

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 02:12 AM

"That sounds perfect. How much are they?"

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 02:16 AM

"I can go, 75 credits."

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 02:18 AM

"I can do that. I'll take one of them. This sounds like the perfect way to redecorate" *He said as he got ready to submit the payment*

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 02:23 AM

*She our the fluff ball in a small bag, and rang him up, processing the transaction,* "You're all set!"

Seaweaver 07-Oct-20 02:25 AM

"Perfect. I wonder if anyone else would want one of these? Well if they do I know where to send them!" *He said as he got ready to take his few new redecoration tolls and head back to the ship*

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 02:27 AM

"Come back any time!"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 02:28 AM

*Erich entered into the market, walking around to view stores. He went over to the store Seaweaver was at to look at wares.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 05:16 AM

[D] *Steph made her way here for shore leave, inspecting the items she could procure while elsewhere. Talaxian clothing looked considerably different, but she was happy to experience all the market had to offer.*

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 05:18 AM

*Erich noticed Steph coming over. He had never seen her before, but could tell she was a Starfleet officer by the uniform. He walked over and decided to open a dialogue* “Anything interesting for sale?”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 05:20 AM

"Hmm? Oh, *annyeong.* Unless I'm mistaken, you're on shore leave as well? I know, my *appearance* doesn't support it- I'm out of uniform, after all- but I'm a-" *She stopped herself, simply nodding.* "*Ye,* I feel many of the things here are interesting, albeit a bit unique."

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 05:24 AM

*Erich doesn’t recognise some of the words she speaks, but understands the Federation standard. It was his main language after all.* “The Talaxians have a flair for the unique, like many other species. Why, when I was on my cadet cruise we stopped by Denobula for a few days and I tell you the cultural difference is unbelievable! As they only have one continent without any major different climates there culture is all one big ble-“ *Erich no cites he is rambling off. A rather surprising thing for him, as he is normally more composed.* “Apologises. I ramble sometimes.”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 05:27 AM

"Oh, no, by all means- if everyone pointed out the quirks *I* had, we'd be here all day, aha!" *She took off her thick black glasses and placed them into her pocket; she didn't need them, really. Just for show.* "I have a tendency to count my steps, words, syllables; anything you can count really." *She looked a little embarrassed, holding both her hands together at her waist.* "I prefer multiples of five and ten..."

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 05:54 AM

*Erich can’t help but be a little amused by this, but kept a straight face* “Well, we aren’t all perfect. Seen anything you like?” (edited)

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 05:55 AM

"Oh, *so* much- the clothing, the foods; even some of the knickknacks look interesting and enticing! But I'm not sure what I'll find. Maybe a friend for Sheldon when I'm not around..."

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 05:56 AM

“Sheldon? A pet I assume?”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 05:57 AM

"A pet? No, Sheldon is a friend; I won him at the Alameda County Fair when I was twelve. Cutest little stuffed turtle you've ever seen, I tell you what!" (edited)

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 05:59 AM

*Erich is now seriously worried internally for Steps mental health. He just doesn’t get why people, adults in fact, like stuffed animals* “Right....well Mr Seaweaver from medical recommend one of the items for me.”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 06:02 AM

"Oh? I'm a doctor myself, but not of the medical variety. I'm not even sure I can write a prescription... hmmm... is that something a Ph.D can do? Write prescriptions? Or would it be a prescription for something like... hmm...." *She was in thought now, pacing for a moment.* "No, no- I don't think so. I don't even have a prescription *pad.* would he cool, though: a little pad with my name on it: *From the desk of Dr. Stephanie Medrano...* Oh! I'm rambling now! My apologies, Lieutenant...? I didn't ask your name."

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 06:04 AM

“Lieutenant Junior Grade Erich Canaris, Assistant Chief of Tactical. You?”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 06:06 AM

"Oh! Right, right- *joesong haeyo.* Dr. Stephanie Ho-Sook Medrano, Ph.D, Starfleet Sciences." *She reached her hand out to shake his.* "Currently serving as an Ensign."

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 06:36 AM

*Erich shook her hand* “Nice to meet ya. You new?”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 06:37 AM

"*Ye,* I transferred not to long ago- I'm excited to be on the Federation's flagship, exploring and helping."

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 06:38 AM

“Not much helping going on actually. More...running away after discovering the Makonians have slaves.”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 06:38 AM

"Well, my expertise is in temporal sciences and mechanics. Should it ever be an issue, I can provide counsel on that."

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 06:39 AM

“Temporal mechanics? Interesting.”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 06:40 AM

"Ph.D in Temporal Science!" *She smiled proudly, happily.*

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 06:42 AM

“So...your not one of those temporal agents?”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 06:43 AM

*She chuckled, shaking her head.* "*Ani, ani-* nothing like that. My work was based more on temporal shielding."

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 06:55 AM

“Interesting. If you don’t mind me asking, what’s Ani mean? I’m not well versed in linguistics.”

< Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 06:58 AM

*[D] standing off in the background a smaller man was calling out to show off his invention* "Come on down and witness the power of the might fidget stick!"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 07:02 AM

*Erich was curious and walked over* “The fidget stick?”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 07:13 AM

[D] *The man points down at him with a small stick no longer than an average forearm* "Why yes the fidget stick! It's the latest new craze and it come in all sizes. Bound to keep you busy for hours on end"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 07:19 AM

*Erich just blinks confused* “So, it’s a stick I can fidget with? What’s it made of? Any good features?”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 07:20 AM

*Steph followed him at a reasonable distance.* "Oh- *'ani'* is a Korean word, to answer your question. It means *'no,'* in English- my *eomma* is Korean, my father is Puerto Rican. I'm mixed up in a lot of ways, hehe..." *She kind of laughed to herself, hoping that last part wouldn't be heard too well.* (edited)

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 07:23 AM

[D] *He looks down and hold out one of the sticks for him to hold* "Why yes, it's made of a rare material from a planet not known by many. It's extremely flexible so it'll never break and you can bend it into almost any shape to suit your needs"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 07:25 AM

“How much is one?”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 07:27 AM

[D] *He looks to the man then to his supply for a moment* "40 credits my friend"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 07:29 AM

*Erich looks rather shocked* “Federation or Talaxian?”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 07:31 AM

[D] *He looks around before leaning in* "For you my friend I'll let you pay however you like, so long as you keep it between us"

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 07:32 AM

"Oh! Hang on..." *She reached into her pocket, producing a small strip.* "Do you take GPL?"

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 07:34 AM

[D] "For you little lady I can!"

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 07:35 AM

*She reached to hand him the strip, smiling a bit.* "*Maeu gamsa,* sir! Is there anything else you can recommend? I'm kind of new to this area..." (edited)

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 07:36 AM

*Erich just raises his eyebrows and pulls out the federation credits with a sigh.* “Can we do 20?”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 07:40 AM

[D] *He takes the strip and hands over two of the sticks, giving them both a wink* "Theres a few others I could recommend it all depends on what you're looking for. Decoration, fun, maybe a bit more entertainment?"

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 07:40 AM

"Oh, okay! Um... more exploration- I'm interested in looking around. Never know what you're gonna find, haha!"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 07:41 AM

“Entertainment? Any chance you’ve got any, uh, moonshine?”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 07:42 AM

[D] *He looks around before leaning in for some softer words* "May not know about where to get that but I know a stall with a drink so good you'll be seeing rainbows off of one sip"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 07:43 AM

*Erich leans in aswell.* “Really? I’m interested.”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 07:46 AM

[D] "Go follow the market line down until you find the drink stand. Once you're theair ask for a bottle of special water, tell em klax sent you"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 07:47 AM

“Is this legal? Just curious.”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 07:48 AM

[D] "I think we both know it's best that it stays between us"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 07:52 AM

“Listen, I don’t care. Really, I don’t. But i’d rather not get in trouble. I’ll still get it. I just need to no if I need to be cautious around others.”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 07:53 AM

*Steph widened her eyes, tilting her head slightly as she looked on. She wouldn't report anyone or anything- least of all someone who sold her something called a "fidget stick." She'd hoped Sheldon would like it...*

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 07:55 AM

[D] "Well I won't share it if you don't and if none of us share it we'll never get in trouble"

*Erich turned to Steph, giving her a weird look. As he did it, he gave her a wink. He wasn’t going to try this stuff without knowing if it was or was not illegal. If it turned out it was illegal, he might take a sample for testing but not tell anyone. Then he’d get in trouble.* “Fine.” *He indicated to Steph to follow him closely, ad to tell her something.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 07:56 AM

*Steph tugged at Erich's shoulder.* "*Gidalim-* he *does* have a point, Lieutenant... if no one shares, there's no chance of trouble..."

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 07:59 AM

“We’ll see.” *Erich walked down the market, observing the other stalls with Steph nearby. When he reached the drink stand, which luckily had no customers, he leaned over the table to speak to a fellow manning it.* “Klax sent me. Special water.”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 07:59 AM

*Steph stood with her hands behind her back, following closely, but not too conspicuously.*

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 08:03 AM

[D] *The man leaned in from the market and looked around* "Give me a moment to grab your glass. Would you like to try one or two?"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 08:06 AM

“Let’s go with two.”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 08:07 AM

[D] *The man disappeared underneath the stall for a moment starting to prepare the drink*

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 08:10 AM

*Erich pulled out his PADD to send a message.* “As you get the drinks ready I’ll just quickly send in my tactical report for the week. Then that’s done.”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 08:14 AM

[D] *After a short wait the man would pull up two shot glasses filled with some kind of rainbow liquid* "First two are always on the house. Please do enjoy"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 08:14 AM

*Erich picked it up hesitantly* “What’s in it?”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 08:16 AM

[D] "Exactly what you asked for of course, special water. Comes from a planet deep within the system"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 08:18 AM

*Erich looks intrigued* “Really? What planets this? I might have to pay as visit.”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 08:18 AM

*Steph inspected it, narrowing her eyes. She ruffled her nose a bit, before asking.* "Pray tell, what makes it... special? Is it special like Fiji water? Or... actually *special?*"

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 08:22 AM

[D] "how you enjoy it effects everyone different. Go on give it a gulp"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 08:33 AM

*Erich looks at Steph* “Ladies first.”

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 08:37 AM

*She grimaced, taking it.* "Well, science's main effective strategy *is* experimentation..."

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 08:37 AM

*Erich grins as he grabs the glass and chugs it down before placing it on the table. He was thirsty.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 08:38 AM

*She shrugged and drank it, wincing a bit- she was unsure how she should react.*

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 08:42 AM

[D] *As they each drink their shot glass nothing seems to happen right away as the water just felt like liquid, there was no real taste to the drink it just kinda was a drink. Until that is that Stephanie gets a sudden urge to just shout the truth about something, anything at the top of her lungs. As for Canaris nothing happens but his glass seems to have refilled without the keeper doing so much as moving a muscle* "So what do you think?"

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 08:47 AM

"I feel... quite similar to befo-" *She felt strange for a moment.* "Th-the drink is fine. Not too bad a flavor, texture is okay too!"

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 08:49 AM

*The shop keep reveled back a moment as he heard her get a bit louder* "I'm glad you enjoyed it. How about you good sir?"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 08:51 AM

*The alcohol level is very high but Erichs an experienced drinker and manages to take a seat, noticing the refilled glass. He gives a grin* “Wow. That’s good stuff! Damm fine!” *Erich takes a large sip out of his refilled glass, only to realise that they’re want any liquid at all.*

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 08:54 AM

[D] *a little bit after trying to take another drink he would soon get the exact same feeling he had on the first drink as if it was some major delay to his taste buds*

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 08:58 AM

*Erichs mouth felt weird. He’d tried a lot of beverages that did weird shit. Numbing the mouth, hurting the mouth, causing his guns to turn blue (And he has never drunk Bajoran Black Lake Ale ever again) but never, this.* “This stuff is safe right?”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 08:59 AM

"Oh of course, I drink it all the time"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 08:59 AM

“Okie dokie. I uh, feel weird. My mouths all weird.”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 09:00 AM

[D] *After he asks his glass appears to refill once more*

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 09:02 AM

*Erich looks at it strangely now.* “Okay, what the hells going on?”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 09:02 AM

*The shop keep appeared to be a bit scared at the question* "What do you mean sir?"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 09:03 AM

“I drunk the glass. Then it appeared to be full. I drunk it again and things there. Now it’s appeared to be full again. Should I be concerned?”

Cmdr Vale Azoci 07-Oct-20 09:05 AM

*Vale was yeeted here by her writer that cant deal with hallways and finding them.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 09:05 AM

"I, uh... I'm not gonna drink anymore, thank you..."

Cmdr Vale Azoci 07-Oct-20 09:06 AM

*Vale eventually found the group and stood at a distance to watch.*

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 09:06 AM

"No sir, it's never had a negitave effect on someone. Perhaps it's making you think you want more?"

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 09:08 AM

*Erich put the glass down and stood up calmly.* “I don’t know. I’m not a scientist. I am an brewer though and I know dam well that’s never a good sign. Look, how much do I owe you and I’ll head off. I don’t wanna cause you any more trouble”

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 09:10 AM

"You've caused no trouble. And you've only had the one drink which I said was on the house"

Lt. Xander Spica 07-Oct-20 09:11 AM

*He was walking around the market, looking around.*

Cmdr Vale Azoci 07-Oct-20 09:13 AM

*Vale looked at the shop Keep with a dark eyed look.*

Allied Intelligence Section C 07-Oct-20 09:15 AM

*Erich puts five federation credits on the counter and gives him a friendly look with a bit of a smile* “Thanks for the drink” *He then turns and walks off, his expression turning to one of annoyance as he heads to the bar. As he walks he notices Vale standing amid the crowd and looks her in the eye, surpised to see her. She didn’t look like she was here for work. He gave her a smile and used his head to indicate to the bar as he walked in.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 07-Oct-20 09:16 AM

*Steph followed quietly behind.*

<Shop Keep> BOT 07-Oct-20 09:18 AM

*The shopkeep gives a thankful nod going back to do his work*

*As time goes on a crowd grows in the distance around another small stall. People chattering before giving a few small oos and awes*

Lt. Xander Spica 10-Oct-20 10:32 AM

*He was still here, browsing through all the different products. Politely declining them all seeing he doesn't want some drug that is disgused as a plushie or something.*

Artistic\_Almanac 10-Oct-20 10:32 AM

*She walked around some, looking at the things the stalls had, shifting from one to another. She spotted Spica and gave him a rather uncharacteristic wave, lacking her usual cheer*

Lt. Xander Spica 10-Oct-20 10:33 AM

*he looked at her and went over.* "Hey... Are you ok? You seem a bit... Down..." *He looked worried at her.* (edited)

Artistic\_Almanac 10-Oct-20 10:34 AM

*She looked up at him, seemingly lost in thought. Though in reality her mind was fairly blank.* “hmm? Oh umm...I don’t know to be honest” *she said, looking back down at the stall and running her fingers through some light blue fabric*

Lt. Xander Spica 10-Oct-20 10:35 AM

*He sighed a bit.* "What happened?..."

Artistic\_Almanac 10-Oct-20 10:37 AM

*Her expression changed to a quizzical one* “I...I told Rownan he didn’t have to go through things alone, that I loved him and then...well he asked me to leave him alone...” *she gave a small shrug, but her eyes betrayed her lack of emotion, glossing over with a few tears. She reached up and brushed a few away quickly* “so, you know, nothing really.”

Lt. Xander Spica 10-Oct-20 10:37 AM

*He looked at her and gestured to a nearby bench.* "Why don't you sit down?"

Artistic\_Almanac 10-Oct-20 10:42 AM

*She looked over and shook her head* “I was planning on taking a walk. You know? Get some fresh air. Try to feel...I don’t know, something?”

Lt. Xander Spica 10-Oct-20 10:44 AM

*He nodded.* "Then we walk and chat." *He started to walk over the market. He looked at Nazral and sighed.* "Look, I'm gonna tell you something valuable that you should know when in a relationship..."

Artistic\_Almanac 10-Oct-20 10:47 AM

*She sighed and nodded, walking along side Spica as they roamed the market, pausing as she looked at some things before moving on. She sighed again* “and what is that?”

Lt. Xander Spica 10-Oct-20 10:50 AM

*He looked at her.* "You can't throw yourself at the other person. Yes you love them and yes you care about them, but they still have things that they rather want to do alone. The other, you in this case, is then suspected to accept that decision and let them fix things themselves... You can't force yourself onto him, he still needs space to breathe. And knowing snowflake, I'm sure he'll come to you when all is done. He's a good man after all." (edited)

Artistic\_Almanac 10-Oct-20 10:59 AM

*She shook her head, shoving her hands into her hoodie pockets again* “I wasn’t **trying** to do that...I was just...I was so mad. I just wanted him to know that I was there for him. My parents always said that if you care about someone you need to let them know you’re there for them, show them that you care...” *she shook her head* “in the end it just blew up in my face. If he thinks the same way you do then...well...I wouldn’t be surprised if he never wanted to talk to me again” (edited)

Lt. Xander Spica 10-Oct-20 11:05 AM

*He turned to her and put an hand on her shoulder.* "Showing you are there for them is fine, but it also important to respect the other's decision. And it's perfectly fine you are upset, I'd be upset to. And believe me when I say he loves you. He wouldn't want to let you go in a million years. He is your boyfriend and you are his first girlfriend, give him some time and I'm 100% certain he'll come back to you in no time." *He smiled to her.* "I'll even have a chat with him if you like me to do so." (edited)

Artistic\_Almanac 10-Oct-20 11:08 AM

*She sighed and shrugged* “I don-I....I guess I need to try things his way and figure out how I feel for myself...I just feel....well nothing really....like there’s a rock sitting on my chest... I don’t know how to explain...clinically I’d say I was depressed but” *she let out a weak laugh, looking at him with a fake smile* “I don’t have time to feel that way so, easier to just feel nothing.”

Lt. Xander Spica 10-Oct-20 11:10 AM

*He sighed and shook his head.* "I'm going to have a chat with him about this. As for you: I think it's best you had a normal chat with him about what happened."

Artistic\_Almanac 10-Oct-20 11:16 AM

*She frowned* “if you want to I guess. You are quarter mates, I can’t prevent you from talking to him. As for me well...I think I’ll just give him the space he asked for...” *she chuckled weakly again* “I’d probably just cry if I saw him now...pretty pathetic right?” *she shook her head, chuckling in disappointment at herself.* “I think I’m going to go check out the observation lounge. I’ll see you around Spi-...Xander. Thanks for the talk.” *she gave him an genuine smile, and turned to head off the other way, back to the space port* (edited)

Lt. Xander Spica 10-Oct-20 11:20 AM

*He smiled a bit.* "You're not pethatic, but please do talk to him. If not for him, do it for yourself. It'll be best."

Lt. Xander Spica 10-Oct-20 11:46 AM

*He went to the docking platform.* (edited)

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 01:29 PM

*She grinned, looking around at all the different stuff the planet had to offer* "wow this place is so cool!"

Kaijin 10-Oct-20 01:32 PM

[Dune]"Indeed it is..." *He said, looking around them and zeroing in immediately on a bouquet of flowers sold by a florist.*

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 01:38 PM

*She raised an eyebrow, watching him in curiosity* "what are you up to sweetie?"

Lt. Girak Mayott 10-Oct-20 01:44 PM

“Well to be honest Captain, I’m having a bit of trouble with her...” *He eyed the shops as they pass.*

Deleted User 10-Oct-20 01:45 PM

*He looked over at the doctor* “What kind of trouble?”

Kaijin 10-Oct-20 01:45 PM

[Dune]*He nodded to the bouquet of flowers in front of them - vibrant blue, five petals each.* “I think those would be an excellent addition to our quarters. What do you think?”

Lt. Girak Mayott 10-Oct-20 01:52 PM

*He laughed surprised that he’s actually talking to the captain about dating and such.* “Well, she and I are in a relationship. Oh don’t worry sir we aren’t letting it interfere with work.”

Deleted User 10-Oct-20 01:54 PM

“I would not expect you to let it, but remember we are on a ten year mission so if I was you I would not screw over any of the women, so I would recommend that gift you are going to buy her better be a dam good gift.”

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 01:57 PM

*her eyes brightened in excitement* “they’re beautiful! I think they’ll be lovely!”

Kaijin 10-Oct-20 01:58 PM

[Dune]”I believe I should have enough...” *He reached into the pocket of his jeans and searched around for a few slips of GPL.*

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 02:34 PM

*She slipped a hand into her pocket and paid for the flowers, grinning up at him* “my money is your money love”

Lt. Girak Mayott 10-Oct-20 02:36 PM

“Yes ten years is a long time. That’s why I want to make sure if what I feel is true or not. I mean need my space too. Can you date someone and have your own time as well?” (edited)

Kaijin 10-Oct-20 02:36 PM

[Dune]*He smiled softly and looked over at another stall selling dresses.* “How about that one? Do you see anything you fancy?”

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 02:40 PM

*She looked over and shrugged* “I don’t really wear dresses all that much any more. For down time it’s so much easier to just wear pants” *she chuckled* “how about you though? See anything you like??”

Deleted User 10-Oct-20 02:43 PM

“Don’t ask me I have only been in one proper relationship and that was on my last assignment when we had no where to go for space.” *He paused and looked at her* “But if you rank up you can get the power to have your own private room or ship like me, I have a cargobay to my self and a yacht.”

Kaijin 10-Oct-20 02:44 PM

[Dune]*He picked out a dark blue shirt with a large Delta Alliance emblem on it and studied it for a while.* “Do you think the color suits me?”

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 02:46 PM

*She tapped her chin as she looked at it, taking it and holding it up.* “hmm. It does look good, but I think if your eyes were blue it would look better. Perhaps try to find something golden?” *she looked over and spotted the Captain and the doctor, waving cheerfully at them before turning back to Dunamis.* “Looks like we aren’t the only ones shopping. Oh! Duney! What if we commission someone to make you some shoes??”

Lt. Girak Mayott 10-Oct-20 02:46 PM

“That is nice to have. Speaking of ship, how is yours coming along? The one you were building?” *There was a jewlers ahead that caught Rownan’s eye so he directed them towards its entrance.* (edited)

Kaijin 10-Oct-20 02:48 PM

[Dune]”For feet like mine? They would be hard pressed to try - or so I am aware of.” *He quipped, replacing the shirt and pulling out a similar yellow one with golden stripes.*

Deleted User 10-Oct-20 02:50 PM

“I have the plans all ready and I am planing on starting the actually thing tomorrow, so it is going well.” *Jammie began to walk with him.*

Lt. Girak Mayott 10-Oct-20 02:52 PM

“Well, that’s good. Glad you’re keeping busy.” *He walked to the entrance and took a quick look around.* “Mind if we look in here? I bet she’d like a necklace.”

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 02:54 PM

*She frowned* “hmm a fair point. Perhaps I’ll find a way to make you more shoes. The replicator might be able to handle that.” *she looked at the yellow shirt and smiled* “definitely.” *She glanced over at the Captain and Doctor again and noticed the jewelers store* “oh!! Dunamis!” *she turned to him with a grin* “the captain is right there and so is a jewelers, let’s go ask him about officiating and look at rings! ....if you want that is” *she said, grinning hopefully*

Deleted User 10-Oct-20 02:55 PM

“Yeah why not after you.” *He gestured to let him go first.*

Kaijin 10-Oct-20 02:55 PM

[Dune]”Perhaps next time. He deserves his shore leave time as well...” *He did walk to the jeweller’s, though.*

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 02:56 PM

*she frowned* “I suppose that is true” *but then she saw him heading that way. She paid for the shirt and rolled it up, carrying it as she caught up with him* “Oh! Are we still going to look??” *she asked, sliding her fingers between his and holding his hand fondly*

Kaijin 10-Oct-20 02:58 PM

[Dune]"Why not? It would be good to have that decided while the time is opportune." *He studied the selection of rings on display - something simple would do, he thought...*

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 03:02 PM

*She looked as well, grinning at a few of them. She spied the doctor looking at some pieces and grinned* “Getting something for a special someone doctor?” *she asked, picking up a simple band that had leaves carved into it before putting it back and looking again.*

Lt. Girak Mayott 10-Oct-20 03:04 PM

*He walked in and began to look around the many necklaces, earrings, bracelets and other sparkling items hung on the walls. The shopkeeper was helping a customer as he went over towards the necklace section. Some big ones caught his eyes but he wanted a small petite looking piece of jewelry.* (edited)

Deleted User 10-Oct-20 03:05 PM

*Jammie just stood by the entrance looking at things near him as he waited.*

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 03:06 PM

*when he didn’t hear her she frowned. She set a hand of Dunamis’s shoulder* “be right back love” *she walked over to Rownan and set a hand on his shoulder* “are you okay Doctor?” *she asked him with what could be summed up as a motherly sort of look, caring and curious.*

Kaijin 10-Oct-20 03:34 PM

[Dune]*That was what he loved about her. Beautiful and immeasurably caring and kind in addition. Packages like her did not come one's way often. He nodded and turned away to the ring selection on display.*

Lt. Girak Mayott 10-Oct-20 03:52 PM

*After searching for a bit he finally chose an oval jewel on a golden chain. The jewel was colored part purple and orange. It reminded him of the sunrise she’d shown him on the holodeck. Once the price was paid he returned to Walker so they could continue the walk.* “What do you think?” *He shows the necklace to Walker.* “Think she’ll like it?”

Deleted User 10-Oct-20 03:53 PM

“I think you have chosen well, but I am not her and I don’t know what she likes so I can’t say.” *He left the shop*

Lt. Girak Mayott 10-Oct-20 03:59 PM

*It was true. Hopefully he chose well. They continued down the road through other shops and passing many different crowds of species.* “Is there anything you’d like to look at Captain?”

Deleted User 10-Oct-20 04:00 PM

“Well I only came to walk and take a break, so no I don’t think there is.” *He looked at the Doc* “Where next?”

Lt. Girak Mayott 10-Oct-20 04:02 PM

“Humm...” *He tucked the package under his arm and tapped his chin.* “Well we could go get a drink at the bar. Maybe try some Telaxian drinks.”

Deleted User 10-Oct-20 04:04 PM

“Yeah I don’t mind I am sure the ship will do fine with out me.” *He began walking*

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 04:44 PM

*She twisted her face inconfusion when the doctor ignored her and shook her head, sighing before returning to Dunamis’s side.* “well that was weird.” *she mumbled, looking over the rings again* “oh! What about these?” \*she said, holding up a matching set of smooth black rings

Lt. Girak Mayott 10-Oct-20 04:51 PM

*They walked through the crowd and he thought back on the jewlery store. It was so crowded in there, he could have sworn someone may have tried to get his attention. Hopefully it wasn’t too important. They walked over to the bar and entered inside.*

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 08:45 PM

"Now **you** just have to ask the captain. I can't do everything after all" *she said with a light giggle*

Kaijin 10-Oct-20 08:49 PM

[Dune]"That I shall do. With pleasure - once he is done with his shore leave of course."

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 08:51 PM

Kaijin 10-Oct-20 08:56 PM

[Dune]*He sighed and looked around them. Indeed it was - and yet they could not stay here forever. He squeezed her hand a bit more tightlt in response.*

Ensign Nihav D'rytaa BOT 10-Oct-20 09:01 PM

*She sighed in response to the squeeze* "Alright then" *she said, offering him a half hearted smile* "lets go home Duney"

*She handed the money over, then visibly crunched the numbers.* "Now, considering a single number probability on standard roulette is 2.60%, and the payout is traditionally thirty-five to one..." *She waited for the wheel to spin, smiling.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 08:33 PM

*Uh oh. Fortunately, she'd taken the opportunity to slightly alter the wheel's construction a bit.* "All right, miss!" *She proceeded to spin the wheel.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 08:33 PM

*Steph eagerly watch with a smile on her face- her hands were up against her chin, attempting to contain her excitement. With too much enthusiasm, she jumped as she cried.* "DABOOOOO!" (edited)

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 08:37 PM

*How the heck did she manage that? She shook her head, and smiled graciously.* "Congratulations, miss! You've won this round." *She handed her her money back, as well as the rest of the payout. She hadn't expected anyone to actually win.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 08:41 PM

*Steph was still extremely happy and excited- she proceeded to dance the same "Platinum Disco" dance she was earlier, framing her face with her hands, and encouraging Adrek to do the same.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 08:43 PM

*She gave her a weird look. She never lost a game of chance to a human, and she most certainly did not dance.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 08:47 PM

*Steph stopped, tilting her head with curiosity.* "It's... easy! All ya gotta do: hands up! Cross! Frame the face!" *She slowly showed her the steps as she repeated herself, then did them in rhythm.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 08:48 PM

*She wasn't about to look silly in front of the whole market.* "No. I will not."

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 08:49 PM

*Steph stuck her lower lip out in disappointment- her dance was a little more somber now that her new Ferengi friend wouldn't dance with her.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 08:51 PM

*She shook her head, and regained her composure.* "Anyway...care for another round?" *With any luck, Stephanie lose this one, and she'd at least make some money back. Hopefully, anyway.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 08:53 PM

*Her expression changed almost like flipping a switch- she happily nodded, placing ten strips down.* "*Ye,* I'll play! Anything to have fun with a friend!"

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 08:54 PM

*She attempted to copy her bright expression!* "Great! Now let's begin!" *She took some time to ensure the modifications she'd made earlier were successful. Maybe not the most ethical of strategies, but she couldn't afford to lose much more.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 08:56 PM

*Steph politely, quietly watched- though she was naive, she wasn't exactly ignorant, but she continued to happily watch as she spun the wheel.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 08:58 PM

*She then proceeded to spin the wheel. It struck her that the woman seemed to be getting somewhat suspicious, even if it didn't reflect in her demeanor. She'd have to switch locations after this.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 08:59 PM

"By the way," *she began,* "I never caught your name, my fair lady!"

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:01 PM

*She briefly considered giving her a fake name, but decided she'd catch any signs of deception.* "Adrek. And yours?"

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:02 PM

*Steph stood proudly.* "Dr. Estephanie Medrano, Starfleet Sciences. Currently serving as an ensign on the Odyssey."

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:03 PM

*She took a step back.* "The...the Odyssey?"

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:04 PM

"Mhm! It's the first application of my commission. I've never served on a ship before this, but I'm happy to."

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:05 PM

"Fascinating! I've, uh, heard quite a bit about that ship. Never seen it in person, though." *She laughed nervously.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:07 PM

"Indeed? I don't believe I've seen you onboard, but then again, I've been called 'reclusive.' I barely see anyone! Haha!"

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:09 PM

"Yeah, well, I totally don't work there. I work down here. Never been there, ever." *If she got caught trying to rig a game at the expense of a fellow officer, her career would be done for.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:13 PM

"Oh... you seem a bit evasive, but I'm not gonna question it- we're friends now!"

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:15 PM

"Ah. That's...nice to hear?" *She'd never really been friends with a human before. In fact, she couldn't really remember the last time she'd had a non-hostile conversation with a human.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:17 PM

"Actually, hang on..." *Steph took one of her bracelets off- not too cheaply made, but not luxury, either. Just a simple silver charm bracelet, with a dangling cat hanging off.* "Here ya go- now it's official!" *She grabbed Adrek's hand and put it on her wrist.* "I'm happy to make friends."

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:20 PM

*She flinched visibly at the sudden movement. She glanced at the bracelet in slight surprise.* "Oh...uh, thanks! I am too!"

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:21 PM

*Steph pointed at the cat charm.* "It's a cat- a furry, feline, quadruped native to Earth. That's where I'm from! In the San Francisco Bay area. Well, specifically, I'm from Oakland, but if you're not from Earth, most people don't know what you're talking about-" *She rambled a bit, but she was happy with her new Ferengi friend.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:23 PM

*She just stood there staring at her and playing with the little cat. She wondered if she could sell it without feeling bad. Probably not.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:26 PM

"...you see, California is on the West Coast of a continent on my planet called 'North America-' it was at one point a part of the- oh! Look at me, talking about geography to someone who has no visual comparison."

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:27 PM

"Well, I have been to Earth before...I just never really travelled there, beyond attending the Academy."

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:28 PM

"Aaaaah. *There* it is! You *are* affiliated with Starfleet, aren't you? Are you a commissioned officer, or...?"

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:30 PM

*Crap, crap, crap. She got flustered, and immediately began thinking of possible excuses.* "Oh, no, not *that* academy. Of course not!"

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:36 PM

*Steph played coy with her for a moment.* "Ah, I guess it was a *different* academy. My mistake- perhaps you meant one of the others..." *She figured she'd try to trick her.* "Choate Rosemary? Phillips Academy? *West Point...?*"

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:37 PM

"Uhhh....yeah! Choate Rosemary!"

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:38 PM

"Ah, yes- I've made my way up to Connecticut before. It's lovely in the spring..."

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:38 PM

*She'd never been at Connecticut in her life.* "Yes! It really is."

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:39 PM

"Indeed! And how did *you* find Mystic Seaport...?"

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:39 PM

"Uh...very...nice?"

Kaijin 24-Oct-20 09:40 PM

*Meanwhile, Kir found himself wandering through the market. He'd been to Talax a few times - but not to **New** Talax, admittedly. He stopped next to the two of them to look at a hat. Or something like that.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:41 PM

"Very nice! I think my favorite part was the *Charles W. Morgan...*"

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:42 PM

"The who? Oh, yeah. He was a great guy."

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:44 PM

*Steph gave a sly smile- she knew she'd caught her, but wouldn't call her out on it. Instead, she figured she'd give another test.* "Ah, yes, and the Golden Gate Bridge... very gold this time of year..."

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:44 PM

"Yeah...very gold indeed. Never seen anything quite that gold."

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:45 PM

"And... how did you feel about the view of the San Francisco Bay from the Academy?"

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:46 PM

*She tried to think back to her time on Earth and if there were any bays in Connecticut at all. She couldn't quite remember.* "Yep, wonderful."

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:48 PM

"I see... and academically speaking? Your personal favorite course? Personally, mine was temporal sciences."

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:49 PM

*What do they even study in human universities?* "Mine was...art."

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:51 PM

*"Damn," she thought to herself. She'd thought she had her that time. But she was inclined to hide her Starfleet affiliation, so she'd let her. She turned around, facing Kir.* "Oh! *Annyeong.* Lieutenant... I... don't think I know you. Should I call you 'Lou?' I suppose Mr. Tenant was your father."

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:53 PM

*Lieutenant? What were the odds someone else from Starfleet would be here? Hopefully they weren't stationed on the same ship.*

Kaijin 24-Oct-20 09:54 PM

"...I'm sorry?" *He raised an eyebrow. His father's name wasn't Tenant at all.* "I'm lieutenant Kirhal, assistant security chief to the Odyssey..."

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:55 PM

*Steph immediately reached her hand out to shake, and, as though she were finishing his sentence, introduced herself.* "...and I'm Dr. Stephanie Medrano, Ensign, USS Odyssey!"

Kaijin 24-Oct-20 09:56 PM

"I see. Who is Tenant and why would you think he is my father?" *He shook the offered hand with an eyebrow raised.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 09:56 PM

*She very slowly began to inch away.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 09:58 PM

*Steph tilted her head for a second, before answering.* "Ah. Well, that was my attempt at a joke- when I'm unsure of things, I try to find humor in a situation... or make it! The joke, being, in old Earth fashion, something like... say a man's name is 'James Miller.' And you call him Mr. Miller, he would respond with something along the lines of, *Mr. Miller is my father- please, call me James.'*" (edited)

Kaijin 24-Oct-20 10:00 PM

*Kirhal blinked hard. He'd never heard that kind of joke being used amongst any member of his crew thus far.* "Oh. I... see. That's unusual."

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 10:01 PM

"Yes... it's probably considered old -fashioned by now; it originated around the early-20th century."

Kaijin 24-Oct-20 10:08 PM

"Ah. I see." *He cast a glance at the Ferengi who was beginning to creep away - had he scared her off, perhaps? He'd seen Stephanie talking to her earlier after all.* "Um. I don't bite." *He addressed her.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 10:11 PM

"Oh, of course! I was...just packing up. I've got an appointment to get to."

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 10:11 PM

"...on the Odyssey...?" *She spoke under her breath, winking at Adrek*

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 10:12 PM

"No!" *she said, a good deal louder than she'd anticipate.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 10:13 PM

*Steph smiled- she knew Ferengi had excellent hearing, and she'd almost counted on that reaction...*

Kaijin 24-Oct-20 10:16 PM

"No, you're on the Odyssey." *He decided.* "Welcome to the crew."

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 10:17 PM

*Well, she figured the deception wouldn't have lasted long anyway.* "Yeah, I'm from the Odyssey. Just moved on, in fact."

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 10:19 PM

"See? Once Detective Stephanie Medrano is on the case, it's only a matter of time..."

*She knew it was Kir that had deduced fully, but she was still proud of herself.*

Kaijin 24-Oct-20 10:26 PM

"Detective Stephanie Medrano." *He somehow found this amusing.* "So, detective, how often do you get cases?"

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 10:27 PM

"Whenever there's something I want to know and I don't." *She smiled with her hands behind her back.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 10:27 PM

*She just stood there, feeling mildy annoyed at having been both found out and not having made a profit for the day.*

Kaijin 24-Oct-20 10:30 PM

"I see. Interesting. The next time the security department needs something done I'll let you know."

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 10:31 PM

"Well, I've misplaced my Sherlock Holmes hat... also my main focus is temporal sciences, so... if there's a temporal issue you can call me!"

Kaijin 24-Oct-20 10:33 PM

"Deal." *He looked on at the Ferengi with an eyebrow raised.* "Everything alright?"

Ensign Adrek BOT 24-Oct-20 10:34 PM

"Absolutely!" *And he was security, too! She'd have to do everything in her power not to draw any suspicion.*

Kaijin 24-Oct-20 10:43 PM

"Good. See you on board." *he turned back to the stall he was standing in front of, trying the hat on. It didn't fit him. At all.*

Ensign Stephanie Medrano 24-Oct-20 10:44 PM

*Steph wanted to giggle, but restrained herself.*

Kaijin 25-Oct-20 04:02 AM

*Sky, Sky, Sky. What the hell have you done this time? Kir sighed, more concerned than annoyed (well, not annoyed at all, just concerned) and hurried back into the docking platform.*

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 10:21 PM

*She entered the market area, waiting for tim.*

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 10:24 PM

*He followed her, the foil in-hand.*

"Sorry it took me an extra second. They got some neat... things here. Very unique."

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 10:25 PM

“Let’s look for a pet salesperson.”

*She spotted a little shop that had a “PET” sign, and tugged at Tim’s elbow when his back was turned.* (edited)

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 10:27 PM

*He smiled and nodded.*

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 10:27 PM

*She began walking over there.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 28-Oct-20 10:37 PM

*She was still standing there with her stand, staring at 'em*

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 10:41 PM

"Uh, excuse me..." *He wanted to approach her, but didn't want to be rude.* "Do you know where we can find a pet store?"

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 10:41 PM

*She followed Tim.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 28-Oct-20 10:42 PM

"Sure, but I'd need to know what exactly you were looking for."

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 10:44 PM

*When he got to her, he rubbed the back of his neck.* "We're looking for a kitten. It's a furry quadruped... about yea big...?"

Ensign Adrek BOT 28-Oct-20 10:46 PM

*She looked at the pile of stuff behind her. It had been a while, so she'd gathered a good deal of wares from the other storekeepers in the area. She reached under the stand and pulled out a little cat, just a few months old by the looks of it. She'd be happy to sell him, since it cost her quite a bit to keep him fed and watered.* "Like this guy?"

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 10:48 PM

*She looked over at the small little furry animal.* “Aww, he’s so cute...” *Her eyes looking at the adorable kitten.*

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 10:49 PM

"Yes! That's the type! I don't have much to trade, but..." *He reached on his back and pulled out the ornate fencing foil he had on his back, handing it to Adrek.* "...this might be worth a bit- it's used in sports, but this one was made... special. Light, yet a bit ornate."

Ensign Adrek BOT 28-Oct-20 10:50 PM

*She placed the kitten on the stand and grabbed the foil. She looked over it for a few minutes.* "It's a deal! Thanks for your business."

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 10:52 PM

“Thank you!” *She took the little kitten in her arms like a furry baby, cradling it.*

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 10:52 PM

"I really appreciate, Miss...?" *He hadn't seen Adrek onboard, but he was happy to meet her.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 28-Oct-20 10:53 PM

"Adrek! Lovely to meet you, sir." *After meeting Stephanie and Kirhal, she'd decided to give up on hiding that she worked aboard the Odyssey.*

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 10:54 PM

“Little nosy...” *She gently scratched the kittens head, the kitten purring with affection.*

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 10:54 PM

"Sir...? Oh! Right- Tim Arden, Starfleet J.A.G. Corps." *He reached out to shake her hand.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 28-Oct-20 10:55 PM

*She shook his hand with a smile. She wanted to make a good impression if she was going to be working with these folks, especially since they seemed like they may be recurring customers.*

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 10:57 PM

"Pleasure to meet you, Adrek. Heh, K might come back around, should I need anything else hard-to-find. And should you ever need an attorney, you can find me aboard."

Ensign Adrek BOT 28-Oct-20 10:58 PM

"Thank you very much, sir!" *Ooooh, a lawyer? She'd never met one of those before. Well, not on friendly terms.*

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 10:59 PM

*He turned to Katie and the cat, scratching behind its ears.* "So, this is Nosy, huh...? Cute fella..."

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 11:05 PM

“He’s adorable!”

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 11:07 PM

"That he is..." *He looked to Adrek.* "I really appreciate this, ma'am."

Ensign Adrek BOT 28-Oct-20 11:07 PM

"It's no trouble at all, sir!"

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 11:07 PM

"That foil should get you a good price- belonged to my father. I'm glad to get rid of it, haha..."

Ensign Adrek BOT 28-Oct-20 11:10 PM

"I see - would it be considered an antique?"

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 11:10 PM

"Not exactly. Only about forty years old. Still, very well-made."

Ensign Adrek BOT 28-Oct-20 11:13 PM

"Good to hear." *She figured she could still market it as an antique. 40 years is hardly new, anyway.*

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 11:14 PM

"I suppose we'll see you onboard, then?" *He smiled and waved at her.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 28-Oct-20 11:15 PM

"Of course." *She waved back.*

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 11:15 PM

*He looked at Katie and Nosy.* "Should we head back?"

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 11:18 PM

“Yes.”

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 11:18 PM

"I really appreciate this, Adrek. Should you ever need anything, don't hesitate to ask!" *He smiled and waved again as he took Katie's hand.*

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 11:21 PM

*The kitten mewed.* “Aww, you’re just the cutest thing...”

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 11:22 PM

*As he walked with her, he asked.* "Is he going to be staying with you? I've no qualms with it- just curious."

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 11:23 PM

“Uh, it’d be simpler, I guess, to keep a bed and his stuff all in one place.”

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 11:24 PM

"That's true." *He scratched the cat's head as he walked.*

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 11:38 PM

*Nosy purred.*

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 11:38 PM

"...I'm glad we got him. He's a good kitty."

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 11:39 PM

“He’s the best!”

*Nosy mewed again, almost proudly.*

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 11:41 PM

"We should head back- probably should get him used to the ship sooner than later."

Lt. JG Katie Chaffee 28-Oct-20 11:45 PM

“Mhm!”

\*She headed for the docking platform,.8

Lt Cmdr. Tim Arden 28-Oct-20 11:46 PM

*Tim walked with her.*

Ensign Adrek BOT 29-Oct-20 11:07 AM

*She realized the ship was going to undock soon and decided to head back. She packed up her self and went to the docking platform.*

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Oct-20 08:16 PM

*Walking in they walked to the pet stand and started walking around the pens and seeing the animals.*

LearnedAx 30-Oct-20 08:30 PM

"Lotsa cute critters here. I don't even recognize half of em."

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Oct-20 08:31 PM

*She nodded before taking off a shriek of puppies coming from her before she knelt by a pen petting the little barking animals.*

LearnedAx 30-Oct-20 08:49 PM

*Pas chuckled and crouched down to pet them as well.* "They like you, eh?"

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Oct-20 09:00 PM

“Yeah.” *She gasped as she picked one up a little one with a pink bow around its neck.* “Well hello you. I haven’t seen one of you in along time.” *It was a little brown ball of fur that yipped at her happily.*

LearnedAx 30-Oct-20 09:01 PM

"One of what?" *He gazed at the dog as well.*

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

“It’s an Orion dog. It’s name is a [Orion word], it doesn’t translate but humans called them Sirius, apparently some hunter had one a long time ago and it’s some kind of joke. I don’t get it.”

LearnedAx 30-Oct-20 09:10 PM

"I didn't know Orion had small canines."

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Oct-20 09:14 PM

“Yeah we used too but they mostly got breed with the large ones and well bigger is better. But this one got away. Please Pas? It’s adorable.” *She help it up to him and the little brown face licked it green eyes as it looked at him.* “It’s so cute.”

LearnedAx 30-Oct-20 09:15 PM

"What are you asking me? I really don't mind what dog you get."

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Oct-20 09:18 PM

*She looked up at him and showed him the price tag. 5 strips of latinum.* “I have 4, I just need one and I’ll take care of it and it won’t get big. It’s cute and look. She loves you.”

LearnedAx 30-Oct-20 09:21 PM

"Yes, of course, why wouldn't I? You don't need to convince me."

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Oct-20 09:36 PM

“I don’t know but I thought I did. Either way let’s pay and then name her.”

LearnedAx 30-Oct-20 09:42 PM

"Sure, what are you thinking? For a name."

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Oct-20 09:45 PM

“You name her. I picked out the dog and were paying together so you make her.”

LearnedAx 30-Oct-20 10:03 PM

"Hmm." *He pats the dog, thinking.*

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Oct-20 10:16 PM

*She held the doggy closely as he thought. It was so cute and it reminded her of home.* (edited)

"How about... dang, all creativity is leaking out of my ears."

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Oct-20 10:30 PM

“Dang? Nah...you know what? How about J’hordak? It means shadow in Orion. Call her Dak for short.”

LearnedAx 30-Oct-20 10:33 PM

"Dang as in an expletive, ya maniac. Yes I speak Orion. J'hordak, a mighty name for this mighty beast."

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Oct-20 10:41 PM

“Mighty indeed. Even if she will grow up to be a foot and a half tall at most. Dak it is.”

LearnedAx 30-Oct-20 10:48 PM

"I love her already."

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Oct-20 10:52 PM

“Ready to go home Dak?” *She giggled at the bark and the panting before standing and kissing Pas.* “You might get some extra loving tonight.”

LearnedAx 30-Oct-20 11:03 PM

"Moderation, remember? And we need to get this girl settled in."

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 30-Oct-20 11:58 PM

*She sighed having forgotten.* “Yeah. Good idea, we’ll need to replicate a bunch of stuff and get her working on training. Good news is they traditionally have been really easy to train.”

LearnedAx 31-Oct-20 12:01 AM

"Well that's good. Did you put the transfer request in?"

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 31-Oct-20 12:04 AM

“Uh...not yet but it’s written. I just wanted you to be sure that you were ok with it.”

“Still.”

LearnedAx 31-Oct-20 12:06 AM

"Why are you so trepidatious, I've already said yes, and that will never change."

Lt. Cinder Jittaz 31-Oct-20 12:06 AM

“Ok I’ll file it right now.” *She tapped on her PADD and showed him.* (edited)
