: : : : : : : OOC: Just a note that Thomas tried to change this after we talked. This can't be post-sim. You can make it in whatever alternative timeline where you wave a magic wand and pretend you were all already there, but no threads can be post-sim right now. There's a very good reason for this which you'll understand very soon. :) If you can adjust the thread accordingly, that would be great. I'd do it but I don't want people to miss this note.

: : : : OOC: Yep. When a GM makes a statement like that, it's better to run away fast and quick instead of finding out. But I think I can make a fair guess as to what is going to happen by using my STF experience powers. If you want to know, please mail me a money order for 20.00!

: : : : "Or what, Ensign?" Lt. Abbott asked curiously. "Is this how you envisioned your first post in the main fleet, to be dancing with your department head to some jazzy music? My first department head on the Academy Ship I served on, was nice enough, but I don't think we would be dancing. I still have the golden phaser decoration he gave me though."

: : : There were several things which came to Becketts's mind as an answer , but he wasn't sure of his boss' sense of humor yet. "No actually I had little in the way of expectations." He said. "I've come to find that if you expect very little you'll either be proven correct or be pleasantly surprised. It makes life a hapier place that way."

: She did a little turn on the dance floor and then faced him again. "I suppose that's a good way to go through life. For myself, I have no expectations at all. I am a firm believer that you make your own luck in life. You also have to take the good with the bad and know how to deal with both. I learned at a young age that very bad things can and will happen to very good people."

Beckett nodded and with a straight face said ,"Ah yes I believe I've read that theory of philosophy. Written by Professor Ebelhart Schlosspiel of the University of Vienna in 2203 . 'The glass is half empty until someone tinkles in it theory."
