Willow sighed slightly as she looked at the NE before her and the items he now held. She blinked again and set down the PaDD she held. “Wait, what?” She asked disbelievingly.

The man looked embarrassed and held up the rope covered posts and tried to explain again, “It just said ‘scratching posts’ please install at discretion. I…I wasn’t sure where to put them sir.”

Willow shook her head. “Is this. Is this some sort of joke?” She asked pinching the bridge of her nose.

The young man turned very red and tried to back track. “No! I mean no sir, I mean I hope not sir, do you…do you want me to take them away?”

“No…” willow said shortly.

“Do you want me to install them…”

“NO!” Willow repoed opening her eyes and looking at the NE. The anger drained from her and tiredly she waved at the desk. “Just....just put them down. I’ll deal with it later.” As the NE left and Willow was forced to sit and look at the cat scratching posts she wasn’t sure if she should laugh or feel furious. She should get rid of them but then again…she went back to her work and ignored them. For now.

The NE stuck his head back in the door. “Ma’am,” he said softly. “It appears we have enough for each deck both port and starboard. Do I bring the rest in here or.....” his voice trailed off not sure what to do. The Captain was pretty adamant about not wanting to talk about this conversation yet there were crates to place. “You know what....I’ll....I’ll just pretend I don’t see them for now and go,” he said hooking a thumb at the door. “You know be like “wait…what crate? On....that crate? Nope did not see it. If anyone asks we can pin it on Johnson. He is due for retirement in six months. We can claim this requisition was based on senility?”

NE Walter Thompson Ford

Willow hit the palms of her hands off of her desk. “WHAT THE…” She caught herself and breathed heavily through her nose, “Just…put them all somewhere. Not in here…good god not in here…” she rubbed her temples a headache forming.

As the NE turned she added. “Wait! Where did these even come from?”

At that moment, the CSO arrived at her door. “Um, excuse me Captain. We seem to have received a requisition order fulfillment in the lab…” and his voice trailed off as he looked both confused and slightly embarrassed. “It wasn’t exactly what I had ordered, Ma’am. You see, I submitted for a new scanning electron microscope lens assembly and several other standard items that we can’t replicate. What I received was… well… this.” and he held out his hand in which sat a small plastic statue of a human female dressed in a grass skirt and a floral print bathing suit top. She wore a necklace of flowers, and she shook when his hand moved. “There are… more than a few of these, Captain. As in… a few hundred. The crates are all over the lab, Ma’am.”

Tressex, CSO

Willow stared at him. “Of course there are.” She said and smiled in that sort of dangerous smile that you get when a person seems ready to explode and somehow does the opposite. “One moment please gentlemen she said and pressed her badge, and contacted the XO

=^= Number one…could you join me in my office please.=^= She said brightly to the comm and interlocking her fingers put her hands on her desk and waited.

=/\=Right away, Captain.=/\=

A sort of cold and uneasy feel preempted, as it always did, the arrival of the ships dentist. Who like always just seemingly appeared from nowhere. The seven foot tall, Black hooded figures ginned around at them all (unable to do anything else) while the blue pin pricks burnt at the Center if his dark eye sockets. The colour made the med division tunic he wore over his billowing robes look almost grey by comparison.

AHEM… he said in a tone like two stone slabs crashing together. I AM VERY SORRY FOR THE INTRUSION BUT I APPEAR TO HAVE RECEIVED THE WRONG ITEMS IN OUR RECENT STORE ORDER. he spoke as always without moving his mouth, the words just somehow bypassing the ears of those who heard him and appearing in their brains. In one skeletal hand he held what appeared to be some wrist restraints.

I ORDERED SOME NEW RESTRAINTS…ALBERT SEEMED TO THINK THEY WOULD MAKE THE MORE FIDGETY PATIENTS CALMER. he looked down at them. THEY ARE COVERED IN LITTLE HUMAN ORGANS…HEARTS I BELIEVE THEY ARE CALLED, He looked up at the assembled people. THE HEARTS ARE PINK… he looked at the item AND FUZZY…

DR Black
DDS

She hadn’t been far away really, she was actually staring down at what was supposed to be a shipment new upgraded PaDDs. What arrived instead was several hundred… things… that sort of resembled PaDDs. The case was red plastic and the scree a dull gray that didn’t seem to respond to touch commands. Two white dials where on either side. Amari gave one a turn and a faint line began to appear on the screen. “What in the world?” she asked out loud to no one. Suddenly, she remembered she had been summoned by the captain. She picked up one of the useless objects and brought it with her as she jogged the short distant to the CO’s office.

The doors swooshed open and Amari entered. She had not been so prepared, however, to see the ominous dark figure that dominated the space. She stopped suddenly in her tracks, clutched her heart and exclaimed, “:Oh, sweet baby Jesus!” before she could stop herself. She immediately knew who it was of course “:My apologies, Dr. Black, but seriously, you must get that all the time.”

The XO approached the captain and tossed the red object on the CO’s desk. “Captain, we were supposed to be getting the new upgraded PaDDs, but instead we received several hundred of these,” she said, exasperated. Amari read some gold lettering on the item she hadn’t noticed before. “I believe it is called an Etch-a-sketch.”

-Lt. Cmdr. Brooks, XO

Tressex looked at the assembled items and then at the assembled crew. He then looked at the Captain. “Um… what?”” was all he could muster out intelligibly.

Tressex, CSO

bump

Willow frowned at the device Brooks had put down. She picked it up. “Are you kidding me?” Turning it over in her hands she looked at the assembled confused people and stood, “Ok, I want to see the requisition orders and who signed for each delivery.”

CO

Tressex handed her a PaDD. “My orders, Captain. They were submitted as normal to the Quartermaster. The only discrepancy I could find, Ma’am, is that no one actually signed off as taking the shipment in. We were just told our requisitions had arrived.”

Tressex, CSO

Amari had a sinking feeling as she looked around at the officers and their confused expressions. This had Sadee written all over it. Of course she had no proof of that, but if she ever did, she would personally throw her daughter in the brig.

“Captain, permission to launch a full investigation,” she asked. If it was Sadee, then she wanted to be the first one to find out.

-Lt. Cmdr. Brooks, XO

Willow looked at Amari as if she was reading the thoughts in the other women’s head. “Granted. Perhaps Rico would be of some assistance.”

Looking at Tressex Willow said “Lieutenant, please, have your uhh…Hawaiian....your items sent to cargo bay three along with all of this.”

Dr Black for his part did look around. AM I NOT TO USE THESE THEN? He asked sounding confused.

Exchanging a look between all present Willow shook her head incredulously. “No…Doctor Black…”

Willow Taylor
CO

Amari looked from the captain to Doctor Black and back to the captain. She picked up one of the restraints and smiled. “I don’t know, Captain, they’re kinda cute.” She smiled and placed the restrain back down. She looked to Doctor Black, though she couldn’t quite look him in the… eyes? “Doctor Black, why don’t you schedule Sadee for an appointment to come see you,” Amari’s eyes twinkled, “I believe she’s due.”

As she turned to go she tapped her combadge. =/\=Lt. Vanhall, please report to the security office.=/\= She turned and gave a quick look of I’m so sorry. I really hope this is not my daughter, to the captain and turned to go.

-Lt. Cmdr. Brooks, XO
