A few of the NEs were rather befuddled as what to do, and others joined in eagerly. NE Yaga and Lepid joined right in walking up to Iyun and Achilleas with no qualms sitting right down and reaching for a piece of cake greedily. And “tea”.

Pouring themselves a large cup each they reclined and started speaking with the two science officers. “Why thank you for inviting us!” Yaga said as she took a fork full of cake. Lepid said nothing as he was taking a large sip from his dainty glass.

NE Sweeney however… He was a man of something altogether different and tapped his comm badge. =/\= NE Sweeney to, uh, Commander Myqian I guess. Ma’am my Department Head and Ensign Iyun… Well half of the science department really are having tea and cake in the middle of the science lab. I don’t think that is very safe.=/\=

Ria frowned for a moment at the two NEs and then suddenly jumped up and exclaimed, “You need a hat! A tea party without hats is no proper tea party.” She then hurried towards the replicator and ordered a variety of hats. One for every person who was currently in the lab. For NE Yaga she got a light blue bonnet with small pink flowers; for NE Lepid a cowboy hat and and for NE Sweeney a slightly dilapidated top hat. As she walked past him on her way back to the table, the shy and almost constantly anxious ensign placed the top hat on his head without even asking if it was okay. She then continued on towards the table and handed the bonnet and cowboy hat to Yaga and Lepid respectively. She then sat back down and finally had a bite of her sandwich.

=/\=Myqian here. Uhhh.. what do you mean…=/\= But Dira didn’t get to finish her sentence.

Achilleas applauded the actions of his fellow officer, “Splendidly done my dear! Thank you for tending to their hats needs! People at this tea party are required to be appropriately adorned after all. But with more people comes the need for more tea! I shall see to this crucial task.”

He then set about the laborious task of making a lot more ‘tea’. The lab supplies will definitely need to be restocked after all of this consumption.

“My pleasure,” Ria giggled while alternating between having a bite of sandwich and a sip of tea. This was exactly what a tea party should be like!

Through a bit of additional toiling and a minor explosion, Achilleas returned with an impossibly large tea pot that must’ve been at least 11.7 liters in size. It was incredibly difficult to carry much less pour, so there was a convenient pump operated spout for dispensing of the ‘tea’. “Come everyone! I have procured more tea! I expect you all to participate or I’ll have you before a court-martial!”

There seemed to be some other voices on the Commander’s side fo the comm and she was clearly distracted by something else.

Commander Myqian, XO

“Yes, yes, indeed,” Ria, the Mad Hatter, exclaimed. “You all need to have tea and cake! How could it be an unbirthday party without everyone having tea?” She got up again and dragged the remaining officers, who weren’t already seated at the table, over and forced them down to sit. Or at least tired to depending on how much they tried to resist. But whether or not everyone took their seat, she started to fill all the cups anyway.

Looking up, Ria suddenly said, “But we don’t have an unbirthday cake!” Without another word she hurried over to the replicator and after some coaxing managed to get it to replicate an unbirthday cake. It was a rainbow coloured vanilla cake with white frosting, red sugar roses and one pink candle in the middle. Carrying it over to the table she asked, “Whose unbirthday is it? You have to blow out the candle!”

~Ensign Iyun, the Mad Hatter

“Why my dear, if today isn’t your birthday then it was be your unbirthday cake! Luckily we have enough ‘tea’ to go along with it too! Sadly my unbirthday is in March or I’d love to blow the candle out, but instead I will simply enjoy watching you do it instead. Only as long as you share though! Can’t stand a stingy unbirthday party with no shared cake!” Achilleas said while gesticulating wildly and nearly spilling his ‘tea’.

CSO Petrakos

“Oh, but of course! Today is my unbirthday! But it is also yours. We all have lots and lots of unbirthdays! Isn’t that fun?” she giggled and was about to lean forward to blow out the candle when she continued, “But first we have to sing. No unbirthday without singing! You start!”

To who?

Oh you!

Who me?

Oh, me!

Now, statistics prove, prove that you’ve one birthday

Ah, but there are three hundred and sixty four unbirthdays!

Suddenly one of the NEs chimed in, “Then today is my unbirthday too!”

What a small world this is

The NE replied, “To me?”
To you!

And Again the NE asked, “For me?”

Holding the cake towards the NE, Ria finished, “Now blow the candle out my dear
And make your wish come true
A very merry unbirthday to you!”
