This was a game where misinterpretation might cost him. Nico looked at the others and then at Stark, with a tooth grin and stated. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Shadowbrother, he says no to Ferengi’s Bearing gifts” Nico guessed with smile. His small little hands flashing in sign language as he could not actually speak. The meter long cream and grey six limbed creature still seemed to be perfectly apt at getting his message across. His vocabulary grew daily, for those that had barely met him it was often quite interesting to watch. For those that had known him sometime like Stark it was truly amazing the difference two years had made. There were still many words what Nico did not know, and that was fine by him, it would be something yet to be discovered. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Nico the Tree Cat : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : LT.jg Dan Jones, science : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Stark smiled wolfishly, he signed his reply as well as speaking for the sake of others. He knew Nico didn’t need him to, but somehow it felt right to do so “At least I know you’re not cheating Nico, I’m afraid you’re wrong this time.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Stark Nightstalker CIO : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “My turn I believe” Stark said with a smile, he looked over at Isabel and raised an eyebrow “Isabel, I really don’t think you like playing nice with Cardassians, would I be right?” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Stark Nightstalker CIO : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Janna was happily observing the game as it unfolded and had no shame in watching the expressions on each of her shipmates as they engaged with each other. While it might be disconcerting for some, at least a couple people there would understand the root of her curiosity. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : ~Janna Kingston, ACNS : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “You would be correct Stark, well done!” Isabel grinned. She liked the fact that she was stumping so many people. Being new to them had its advantages. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Delaney, Sec : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Nicely done,” Janna said with a grin. “Stark gets to go again.” By this point, Kingston was sitting back in her chair in a very relaxed position and she was simply taking it all in. She was glad she decided to join in, since this was turning out to be a lot of fun! : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : ~Janna Kingston, ACNS : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Stark’s eyes narrowed. “Anyone who knew what a hexapuma was probably wouldn’t own up to saying no to them in front of Nico here, so I’m going to say that Nico himself would say no to a hexapuma”. He looked at the diminutive six legged cat “Have I guessed aright my feline friend?” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Stark Nightstalker CIO : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Orvos raised an eyebrow Nico, curious as to whether he had indeed put that down. The game was a foot, and Orvos was enjoying the interplay just as much as the game. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : -Lt. Orvos Legen, CE : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : With a toothy grin Nico nodded that Shadow brother was correct. Then completed the response with a rating meow type noise and a flash of teeth claws attempting to look scary. Nico did not consider that they did not know what a hexapuma was, everyone would say now to a six limbed mountain lion the size of a Grizzlies bear in Nicos educated opinion. So he shared the mental image with them of a pack of three cats his people, fleeing one. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Nico : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : I would too,” Janna said in reply to Nico’s imagery, surprised though she was to receive it. Last time she had encountered the creature, he had just signed. it deepened her curiosity about Nico. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Okay Stark, your turn again,” Janna said, with an amused smirk. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : ~Janna Kingston, ACNS : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Isabel’s eyebrows rose in surprise as she received the mental image from Nico the Cat. IT was not something she could possibly have known he could do. She didn’t particularly like mental intrusions, even if it was something as simple as the cat giving her a picture of what a Hexapuma was. Isabel sat back trying not to feel annoyed and paranoid. Nico could not possibly know that she had been on guard for years against mental intrusions, and that she had finally let her guard down enough to apparently allow such intimate contact with her mind. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Delaney, Sec : : : : : : : : : : : : Nico rawr’d again and then bleeked a laugh, finding himself totally amusing for the moment. Hexapumas used to be scary, but now he lived on a flying city with lasers and stuff, as long as it was not onboard what was a hexapuma going to do about that. Nico was still fairly naive about most things, but sometimes he put things together and found them quite funny. : : : : : : : : : : : : Seeing Sunset protectors reaction and her surprise and his face was apologetic if a cat could look contrite. Nico liked to share and he felt bad when it bothered people it was habit for him. Rarely did he consider that others might not be so open or like the idea. : : : : : : : : : : : : Nico the Treecat : : : : : : : : : : Stark smiled again his dark eyes glinting as he looked at Nico. “Thank you for an idea for a training programme my friend”. His eyes narrowed and then he turned to Dan “Remind me not to get you a gift for your birthday, especially if I got it from a Ferengi. You wouldn’t like that I’m thinking”. : : : : : : : : : : Stark Nightstalker CIO : : : : : : : : Dan chuckled softly as he listened to Stark’s statement. “That is correct Commander. I never trust a Ferengi bearing gifts.” : : : : : : : : LT.jg Dan Jones, science : : : : : : Janna laughed. Not just because of the answer, but because the CIO was on a streak. “So that’s one point for Dan, and three for Stark. Which leaves one last answer that can only belong to our enigmatic Intelligence Officer.” She looked to Orvos. “Does he get the point automatically then?” : : : : : : ~Janna Kingston, ACNS : : : : Isabel reached out to Nico and gently touched his fur, acknowledging the apology given. “Stark you are doing pretty well for yourself now.” : : : : Delaney, Sec : : Stark nodded depreciatingly “Truth be told apart from having a close relationship with our six footed feline friend here that tipped me to his, the rest of you gave me all I needed from your earlier responses”. He spread his paws wide “So for that, I thank you for your assistance”. He smiled broadly showing a generous amount of canine. : : Stark Nightstalker CIO : Nico was having a blast playing this game, and considered what Shadowbrother had said, but he should answer honestly, not make things up, so it would just be an advantage that Nico had to let by. Besides it did not matter who won, this was not a contest to determine survival, it would be as Kornrows said for poop and giggles. Though why someone would do anything for poop, still confused Nico. Nico looked at the others and flashed a toothy grin, he hoped they were having fun, but he had promised to play fair so that meant no sampling their emotions to determine the truth of the smiles. Then Sunset protector scratched his head, and all other thoughts vanished as he melted against the table almost boneless, his purr vibrating against the PaDD. Nico loved to be touched, it was an intimate thing that implied trust, since he knew he had razor sharp teeth, and claws that made his teeth appear dull. : Nico the Treecat
