Carsyn Kolchak stepped off the FMMS Nostromo and onto the shuttle and rode down to Oed V. She didn’t even bother looking out the port window on the way down as she was busy finishing up on her two stories she had gathered on the Nostromo. It had been a bitter sweet departure for her but she was now on her way to setting up shop for the Federation News Service on Oed V. First stop of course was Customs. When the shuttle landed she grabbed her bag and then made sure she had her PaDD in hand, she quickly opened up a screen, she knew that there was about to be a stink when she went through customs; she was permitted for a stun phaser by the Federation and Starfleet, but local authorities tended not to like citizens and visitors having them.

OOC: Just shortening the title even though it will break the Next In Location feature for a moment. If we must tag other players, let’s keep it short so we are being kind to other players. Super long titles make it hard to scroll through the board on smaller devices like a phone. :)
Also, I don’t know if you got my email, but do jump into the press conference. It’s a perfect opportunity to do your thing and multiple timelines works well for this sort of thing.

The Customs Hall had made more sense for the larger ships coming into OED. It freed the Starport for smaller craft and helped with not having to transport hundreds of personnel up to the Starport every day. The Customs & Immigrations Service agents were friendly but efficient, moving people from the four massive transfer shuttles through the Customs “Border” quickly. As Carsyn stepped past a nondescript column, a soft chime sounded a young dark haired man in the uniform of the CCDA’s Customs Divison appeared at her side. “Excuse me Miss, I’m gonna have to ask you to come with me.” He motioned to a large, armored looking door to their right. As he did so, a tall brunette woman stepped through and nodded, awaiting their approach.

Customs & Immigration Service (CCDA)

Carsyn smiled at the man as she noted the female “Of course sir, lead the way.” She then brought up her PaDD to ensure three things, her stun phaser paperwork was up, her press credentials were available, and the mike system was running. “may I ask who the lady is in the room your taking me to is?” she inquired.

-Carsyn A Kolchak, FNS Reporter

“That’s Captain Gabriella Fash, the Shift’s Senior Officer. Right this way, it will only be a minute.” Without another word, the pair approached the door and then the CCDA man held back, leaving Carsyn to enter the room alone with the Captain.

Fash smiled a half hearted smiled and motioned to a large pillar about a meter from a solid looking table. “Please place your bag on the pylon and take a seat…” She motioned to a chair by the table. “… this’ll all be over in a moment and you can go about your business.” Fash stood, waiting for the reporter to do as she was told.

Captain Gabbi Fash, CIS

Kolchak smiled, “Sure thing.” and walked over to the pylon and set her bag down, she held onto her PaDD and walked over and took a seat. Kolchak was used to this by know, more than a few port authorities had either issues with FNS reporters, or those permitted to carry stun phasers. “So, what is this about Captain Fash?” asked Carsyn, in her most charming ‘who me I am innocent voice’.

-Carsyn A. Kolchak, FNS Reporter

Fash glanced up from the Scanner screen. “Likely the phaser…” Picking through the bag, the CIS officer pulled the phaser out… flipped off the safety… and fired it into a small, armored tube next to the pylon. Glancing back to the screen, the Captain sighed… almost bored. Checking that the weapon had no lethal settings before slipping the phaser back inside the small pocket in the bag, the CIS officer looked back at Carsyn. “… I’d assume you gotta permit for this thing…right?”

Captain Gabbi Fash, CIS

Carsyn smiled her most saccharine smile “Yes I do have a permit. In my job I tend to piss off the wrong people, especially when I snoop into the business they would prefer people didn’t know about.” she slide her PaDD over with all her pertinent data and permits. “So, with that cleared up, care to fill me in on the wonderful colony of Oed V?” she knew that Captain Fash most likely wouldn’t, after all she was being a pain in the rump for her.

-Carsyn A Kolchak, FNS Reporter

Fash glanced at the paperwork, sighed and looked back at the reporter with a raised eyebrow. “Everything here seems to be in order.” The woman clearly showed no desire to chit chat. “Please remember that citizens and guests are subject to questioning and search at any time by competent OED authorities under Statue A-284 of the Governmental Code.” The woman’s tone was flat and the words she was now speaking clearly scripted, likely spoken a hundred times a day. “At any time, while carrying your protection device, your permits may be requested by OED agents and confiscated…” She stressed the word. “… if improper use is suspected. Enjoy your stay and if you have any questions about today’s interaction with the CIS, you are welcome to direct those questions to the CCDA Headquarters Office of Constituent Relations. Have a pleasant day.” With that, Fash turned and opened the door behind her, motioning for Carsyn to leave.
