“Oh God,” Duncan exclaimed with a dead serious look on his face. “Maybe we missed some of those mutated Tribbles that fed on the Plasma relays just after I arrived on the station.” He looked at the group and explained, “They absorbed the energy from the conduits and multiplied, fast. You know how Tribbles multiply when fed, and a Station has plenty of power. They ended up radioactive and biting people, and were brought on by traders posing as entertainment providers selling toy Tribbles, very realistic of course. If we missed even one and it was hibernating....” he raised his hands and made a ‘boom’ motion with his fingers. Then winked at Jessica.

“I doubt we will find much in the way of time travel records. Temporal Investigations classifies every file, but it won’t hurt to look.”

Lt Rhodes, CSO

Toveka frowned slightly. “I doubt you missed any, Lieutenant.” Though as she said that and glanced at him, she saw the wink and frowned deeper. “I will never get used to your sense of humor in times where it doesn’t seem right. As to the records,” she continued and tried to ignore her boss, “even if they are heavily redacted or even listed as simple ‘temporal’ troubles, it could help us out.”

She glanced to the XO. “Perhaps your clearance is better suited to the query. I know I don’t have the clearance and I would be surprised if Rhodes did, either.” She had managed to learn Duncan’s jokes but in times of crisis, his ability to make puns, jokes, and light of the situation still eluded her. She was coming, though slowly, to understand how come her fellow students thought she studied too much. It seemed she had stayed buried in her pursuit of truth to the exclusion of nearly everything else. And for some reason, she was now starting to regret that.

The woman glanced around the room. “Is this normal for all of you.” Standing next to the empty antigravity field, her eyes were still glued to the scans of the artifact that they had taken earlier.

Toveka managed to give a wry smile. “I do not believe anything about this is ‘normal’, Ma’am. But since it’s abnormal, yes… we are used to it.” It wasn’t exactly a joke, but it was a hint of sarcasm and fun that Duncan probably wasn’t used to hearing from her.

In truth, she was nervous and lost. This was so far out of her scope of abilities that she was using dry humor to try and hide how uncomfortable she was.

=/\=Operations what’s going on with my base, =/\= Jessica asked tapping her comm badge. The woman was right. This was not normal and Jessica needed to know why.

Lt. Commander Jessica Teller XO

=/\= McGarrett here. Commander, if you’re refering to my outpost, we’re still trying to get to the bottom of it. Though there’s a lovely woman in a Victorian outfit giving insight about our tactical situation here. I have a feeling she might be able to shed light on our power failure issues as well. Standby. =/\=

Captain Mathias McGarrett, CO

“Yours. Mine. Ours…it all blends at times.
Jessica let out a sigh and leaned against the table. She knew his family has British roots but a Mary Poppins wanna be in a corset seemed a little too stuffy even for Mathias tastes. Still Evie had a way of finding matches for everyone out of thin air it seemed at times. “So I guess we wait,” Jessica said to her group.

Lt commander Jessica Teller. XO

((Ooc .. Not really seeing any questions actually being answered so just going with that lol))

Toveka frowned slightly. “Well, with the paperwork seeming to be in order, we can’t keep all of the artifacts,” though she added under her breath, as much as I desire it. “But I would respectfully request that this singular piece be released to us. Just for a period of time that I can study it.”

The woman glanced those present. “This is a new Discovery from a planet I called home. I cannot demand it, but I can ask that you allow it. I give you my word that I shall return it to you when I have finished.” She waited, pointedly not looking at her supervisor, for someone to answer. Something told her that her breech of protocol and ettiquite was something he didn’t approve of.

“That’s going to be up to the archaeological team here,” Duncan said, “If they allow it, I certainly won;t be getting in the way.” With that he moved to his console and brought up the schematics of the Station and the power grid status. “With the state this station is in, a few power fluctuations are not unusual but that one was bigger than normal.”

Lt Rhodes, CSO

The archeologist spoke up, “While I am not the sole decision maker for these sorts of things, I don’t think I would be able to give it to you even if I was.” She guested to the previously mentioned empty anti-gravity field that the broken tablet used be suspended within. “If you were speaking about the tablet, it seems as though it has gone missing.”
