OOC: It has been more than two weeks … so I am going to give the prelude to the next sim. Please continue to have fun at the after mission party. I will go full steam when the CO gives the okay. :)

IC: The ship was crusing in uncharted space collecting data as it moved. It was travelling at warp 4 and going through a huge amount of empty space.

The NE at helm was alert but bored. As far as the long range sensors could go, they were reading just empty space with mainly space dust and small rock particles that were deflected by the deflector shield.

Then the NE at science gave a small exclamation, “Hey! I am reading a possible nebula up ahead. We won’t reach it in 24 hours at our current speed but we might be able to see a star in the midst of getting formed!”

“Should we alert the Captain?” asked the NE at tactical.

“I don’t know if he would be pleased for us to disturb him when the party is going on. Let us confirm this before reporting. After all, we have at least 24 hours before we reach it, right? Let’s get more data before we report it in,” replied the duty officer on the bridge.

OOC: I think we can get into this, anyone jump on the thread. ]

The doors slid open and in walked a statuesque young woman wearing a tight silvery cat suit. Her purple hair was in a pageboy haircut. Her body was reminiscent of the holosimulations of Commander T’pol or Seven of Nine but her round girlish face and ice blue eyes gave her a childish innocence that seemed for appropriate for a schoolgirl, not an officer. “Counselor Ayeka reporting for duty, Cap’n!” she chirped in a high birdlike voice that was painful to those with sensitive hearing. It was then that she noticed that there was only a skeleton crew on the bridge. “Hey, where is everybody?”

OOC: I’m making two assumptions. 1) that this is the shortly after Ayeka’s runabout dropped her off and that she didn’t know about the party and 2) there’s only NPC’s on the bridge and nobody in the captain’s chair because everybody is at the party. If I’m mistaken the PC who has the conn can always walk in from the ready room I guess.

Counselor Ayeka, taking the CO’s thread at face value.

N-Lt. Twonk jumped out of the command seat wiggling a finger in his ear. He turned towards the high voice and stopped when he saw Ayeka.

“Um… Hi.” he said looking her up and down. It wasn’t that he was finding her attractive, but her outfit wasn’t one he expected to see on the bridge, “Um… The command staff are in the holodeck for a post mission party and promotions.”

  • N-Lt. Twonk

Ben waited for the turbolift doors to open and stepped onto the bridge. The security station and was on his list of places to check while making his rounds. He noticed only a minimal crew manning the bridge. The counselor was also there but seemed as surprised as he that there were only the minimum crew manning the bridge. “Hey, where is everybody?” he heard the counselor ask. “I think nearly everyone is at a party on the holo-deck”, he answered. He had heard the two NE’s discussing contacting the captain. He glanced at the tactical display, “Captain, this is the bridge. Ens, Wilkinson speaking. There’s a non-emergency situation here that you might be interested in, at your convenience.”

Ens. Wilkinson JSO, hoping he’s not showing too much initiative here.

The NE at helm turned his eyes away from his display and the view screen to see the counsellor and the entrance of the JSO. He decided to turn back to the Counsellor which seemed more interesting than the officer in blue.

The NE at science looked up and said to Ens. Wilkinson, “Are you here to take the next shift?”

GM

Ayeka blinked when Lt. Twonk and Ens. Wilkinson filled her in on the current whereabouts of the command staff. “Oh,” she cooed softly. “Oh!” she squeaked at an atrociously high pitch as realization hit her. “Oh,” she again cooed softly.

A starship wasn’t just a post, it was a home. The officers and crew weren’t just coworkers, they were family. For the first time in her young life Ayeka was truly becoming something larger than herself, something stronger than a class of Star Fleet cadets or high school classmates. In a way it was like being knighted, getting adopted, and joining a religious order all in one and the reality really started to sink in when she thought of the pageantry and celebration occurring right now in the holodeck. She should probably go down and introduce herself but right now she felt like an interloper.

She broke out of her thoughts when she heard Ben Wilkinson’s call to the captain. Nonemergency situation? Was he talking about her? “No wait!” she shrieked. “There’s no need to call him! I can introduce myself on my own time!”

Counselor Ayeka, who is apparently too preoccupied with herself to know what time it is
