“Yes I believe this is our best possible chance to communicate effectively with the entity.”

He looked about himself sure of the task at hand and confident with those that stood before him.Then in a light, breathy voice he further explained.

“Remember gentlemen, our purpose its make ourselves open to contact. Follow the prime directive, be vigilant and above all we have a duty to this ship and crew.”

“Understood sir,” Barvan would reply. “I am ready to begin monitoring the procedure. Commence whenever you’re ready.” As he uttered the word “ready”, he’d focus on both the Vulcan and the two Starfleet officers engaging in the meld procedure, compartmentalizing all three sentients into three parts and watching them like a mental security cam center. This was part of his training, and his high level of proficiency with telepathy allowed him to do so.

Stepping closely towards Kanto. Rexar let his shoulders slope to the floor, his hands release and his eyes close softly.

Rexar Omtala (Engineer)

Kanto leaned in towards Rexar and placed the fingers of his right hand on the Andorian’s face in the appropriate spots, his thumb on the chin, his forefinger by the nose and the following fingers arranged by the temple. He lost himself into the trance as he repeated the mantra, “My mind to your mind. My thoughts to your thoughts. Our minds are one.” He repeated this over and over until he couldn’t even hear himself repeat it…

The pressure of the Vulcan’s hands on his face wasn’t uncomfortable, nor were his words bizarre. At first, as he attempted to control his breathing and heart rate, he fought his own mind in a battle of worry and doubt. Rocketing about between the impreceivable and the unpredictable, the stubborn engineer could barely hear the trilling of the spectral analysis unit only centimeters away.

That sound.

Rexar’s childhood was steeped in the militaristic culture as one would assume for an Andorian and more. Yet his fondest memories are of his clandestine evenings long after the lessons of the day. Creeping out beyond the curfew, he would steal away to the automation yards and ore factories to tinker and fiddle with scrap machines and damaged equipment. Whilst he sneaked about, the lingering whine of power cells would echo through the warehouse. He found warmth in that howling and wanting in the moment as the beating of his heart relented and the depth of draw slowed to a crawl.

My thoughts to your thoughts.

The whistling cried harder. More prevalent than before consuming the desparations of a young boy and confusion of a young man into a single, harmonious high pitched vibration.

You’re mind to my mind

The peak became a dull roar and soon was inaudible as all that remained was the white, still nothingness of empty thoughts. Broadcasting openly, and in awareness of the essence transmitting in return.

Our minds are one.

(OOC: If I’m stepping on your toes GM I accept your punishment. Thought I might try to bridge the gap)

Rexar Omtala (Engineer)

There seemed to be ‘something’ .. a kind of curiosity that hinged on Rexar’s mind .. whatever it was felt like it was drawing closer .. then ..

Ang had rifled thru the list of those able to answer questions and found several possibilities. Messaging the subsequent rooms, she left messages that they were to come to Cargo Bay to help with the cargo to be transferred. She didn’t leave any other facts.

Ang
CE (outgoing)

The ranking crewman, a short redfaced man in his 30’s, bald, apparently by choice but with a stiff, short shovel like beard, responded to the call. He, a Lt jg, by the name of Nathan Hess approached Ang. “You Ang, sir?” he asked. “Are you coordinating the transfers?” Which, it seemed was what Hess thought Ang was doing. He bore the colors of science.
- Hess

Barvan, being the gifted telepath he was, registered Hess’ entrance. Upon doing so, he opened a fourth “camera” in his head fixed on Hess, attempting to read his recent memories to see what he meant by “transfers”.

( What would he find?)

Cadet Barvan, Security

Just a fleeting thought of crew transfers to the SeaHawk of which he was one …

Ang glanced at the man who arrived and nodded with a smile. “A pleasure to meet you, Hess. Yes, I am curious about the cargo containers. We are ready an entity of some kind. A couple of my crewmen have commented sensing sentience from them. I was curious if you could tell us what’s in the crates. And if you can’t, then please let me know who can. I fear I cannot allow these to go to the surface without knowing the contents are safe.” She nodded to the said containers behind with an added, “And forgive me, but your word they are safe is not good enough. If it’s a security issue, you are welcome to tell either my Chief of Security or the XO what the contents are if you cannot tell me.”

She didn’t add that the small cluster of men to her left, seeming as if they were simply in deep conversation, were actually trying to contact whatever was giving Rexar his ‘feelings’.

Ang
CE (outgoing)

Nathan gave Ang a long stare which in some circles could imply ‘crickets’ … but then a recollection came to him as he looked at the containers. “Oh. Those are them?” His gaze fixed on them. “An entity?” He shook his head and flushed a little redder as if in embarrassment. “Sorry Lt. I know there were classified containers coming down for experimental research in the science division, but what they are? I don’t know. That would be Cap’n of the SeaHawk who could possibly tell you. My understanding is they are to be received by him. It may be related to a project they are working on there. An AI project called Hollowhead.” He gestured to the crates. “But what’s in there? I have no clue.”
-Hess

.. then, as soon as Hess said the word Hollowhead .. whatever it was ceased. Retreated. Vanished.
- Wookiee

Barvan remained focused on everyone in the room. His ability to monitor all sentients in the room was good, and he looked out for anything fishy…

… which happened just as Hess said “Hollowhead”. He detected that, whatever it was, it had ceased being. He kept focusing on the experiment, but this was odd and a slight expression of fear and concern could be detected on his face.
