Mission: Where are we?

LCARS: Attention On Deck

❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: ::attn::
Portman> ::attn::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: ::AA::x2
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: So it's just us few this week
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: Yes, sir. Unfortunately.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Dang
I was hoping to do our plot. It was getting fun.
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: It shows Ensign Gaavr online but..
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: I wish I had been able to be here to enjoy it
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: sorry here
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: There he is
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: im always on
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: We understand why not, and you needed to get better.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: I'm somewhat tired but I'll be on my phone so you'll probably not Get Shameless' interesting dialect
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: I'm all for a free sim tonight if you guys are. Or we can call it and hope for the best for next week
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: I'm open for either
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: I'm good with CD.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Cool. Free sim it is
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: ----------Start?------------
::Richter gave a little of a sigh as he sat down in the mess hall, with his sandwich.::
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::Matt walked into the mess hall and went to the beverage dispenser:: Lemonade.
::looks at the cupboard to see what was on the menu for the night::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Sinn
Sivain--:: enters the mess hall only to get a large salad, a vegetarian pasta dish and a glass of simbia before sitting down at the table.
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: Afternoon, Commander. Where's your other half? ::motioning his head, if Matt and Sivian wanted to join him.::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus--:: also came in the mess hall and started working on fixing up some bangers and mash with a small cherry shortbread cobbler for dessert
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Calder walks in to the mess hall after his shift
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: :: as soon as Sivain and Seamus got their trays, they moved over to sit with the others
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::he grabbed a italian sub with a side of macaroni salad; he then grabbed his drink and looked at Richter::
Could ask you the same buddy.
::sits with him::
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: He goes to the dessert section the chef prepared earlier in the day and picks up a slice
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus--:: offers the commander and the others at the table a silver flask of his latest experiment with the still
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: That's over with. Starfleet intelligence found out where she was from after that mess with getting her Brother back and all. We decided that a mutual break up was the best thing. For all I know the Temporal agency found a way to put them back in their own time.
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: He places a case on the table gingerly. It takes up the bulk of the table top, but still leaves room for his plate.
Chef JC Gibbs: ::whistles as he cuts down the chicken breast for the captains meal::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Sivain--:: looks over at Gaavr:: need any help?
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: "Oh no, I'm fine, just trying to relax. I normally do this in a quiet part of the ship."
He flicks up the locks on each side of the case, then gets something out of it.
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: Portman> She finally got in there, she was just checking up on a few things that Richter had asked her to before she took her break. "I here, I here."
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: It was a guitar...no, not enough strings. A uke.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: I'm sorry Richter
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: "I hope I never break a string," the security officer said softly with a sigh.
Chef JC Gibbs: After butterflying the chicken breast he places them on the tray, still whistling as he lay the presliced ham and swiss cheese on each chicken breast.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Sivain--nice! Would you like for me to get my lyrette to accompany you?
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: "So am I. She wasn't suppose to be in this time anyway, which is unfortunate. I'm surprised I haven't been interrogated since I knew." Picking up the sandwich, which was a sub as well, just different ingredients than Matts.
Portman> She moved over to grab whatever was in the nearest food recepticle. Coming over to kiss Matt's cheek then sit down.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Thanks Chef
Chef JC Gibbs: "no problem." he said as he started to trim up the asparagus.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Sivain-- if you need, I have several additional sets of strings that you are more than welcome to
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Starts playing. Nothing fancy, just relearning the chords.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus--::listens as he eats
Chef JC Gibbs: Still whistling as he drops the asparagus in to the boiling water on the stove top. He set the oven 350 and let it warm up.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Sivain--:: finishes his meal then goes to get his lyrette for a jam session
Chef JC Gibbs: Placing parchment paper on another tray he lay out long thick strips of bacon. Then went back to the stove and put cream in a pan on low heat to reduce.
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Starts playing an old song from the early 21 century.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Sivain--:: begins playing an accompaniment to the Uke Piece
Chef JC Gibbs: Removing the asparagus from the water he would wrap the bacon around two stocks of asparagus, using a toothpick to hold it together.
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: Portman> "So what is everyone talking about?" Motioning to the playing, "Other than that." Not that she was complaining.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus--:: is tempted to go get his other set of pipes to join in
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Stops his playing as he feels it is out of tune.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: :: Seamus' flask is still on the table for any who want to sample it
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: "I asked the Commander where you were, and he in turn asked where Karlie was, so I explained."
Chef JC Gibbs: Once the asparagus was wrapped he placed it in the over and set the timer. After a few minutes the smell of bacon waffered through the galley.
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: Sure why not, Richter reached to try what was in the flask and set it down again. "What is that?"
Portman> Only came in on part of what was being played but she liked it. Giving a little golf clap and looking to lift the cover to see what mystery lunch she just grabbed.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::he smiled and hugged Natalie::
Chef JC Gibbs: Portman would find a chicken cobb salad.
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: Portman> Returning the hug and leaning into Matt a moment, then looked to the salad. She could work with that, it looked good. Taking a dive in. Unlady-like also talking with her mouth half full. "So what happened to her?"
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::looks at Richter::
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: Richter repeated what he told Matt, which all of them at the table either heard the first time or just heard now. "Starfleet intelligence found out where she was from after that mess with getting her Brother back and all. We decided that a mutual break up was the best thing. For all I know the Temporal agency found a way to put them back in their own time."
Portman> "I'm sorry."
Chef JC Gibbs: He pulled the asparagus out and put it in the warmer as he popped the chicken cordon blue in the oven
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: :: Playing Roundabout ::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus -- one of my experiments I hope it tastes as good as I think it does
I just brought out the scotch today
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: No worries Richter. Plenty of fish in the sea.
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: "I am alright with things. Considering it was a mutual decision, but thank you, Matthew." Looking to Seamus, "It wasn't bad."
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus--thanks, it's still a little young
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::looks at the scotch and Seamus::
Scotch huh?
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus -- aye sir
I have about 20 barrels getting ready
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: "Actually, I need to get in contact with my source again, I'm getting a bit low on Romulan Ale."
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Sivain-- if you could get me a centiliter I could attempt to try to make some here
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: "I appreciate it, but my source is reliable. However, I still have some bottles left. If you want one and want to attempt it, that's fine."
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: I should get some rum. Maybe even Moscato.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Sivain-- then please, it might help if you cannot reach your sources and we would have our own Source to party with
Seamus-- I'm working on those too, in fact I think between us we have almost the full run of alcoholic beverages
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: "One stipulation though." Finishing his sub.
Portman> Already finished her salad about 5 minutes ago. Just listening to them.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus-- that being sir? I was thinking it might be good for trade
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Oh?
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: "Other than a fourth of it, the rest we have to drink. Waste not, want not after all." He smiled lightly.
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus--:: grins wickedly:: when did you turn telepath?
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: There was that slender eyebrow raised. Yes, more 'famous' by Vulcans, but still. "Who says I'm not, I'm Romulan after all." Grinning.
Portman> Leans to Matts ear, other than blowing on it on purpose, whispering. "Did this just get weird?"
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus--:: laughed uproariously and claps him fondly on the back
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::laughs quietly and looks at Natalie:: A little. ::he said quietly::
Chef JC Gibbs: Once the cream reduced some he added some light chedder cheese and stirred it until it was a cream mix then took the pot placing it in the warmer. Next adding water to a large pot, he put it on the stove to boil.
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: Richter gave a look a moment at the clap to the back, narrowing his eyes a moment. As if, oh you shouldn't have done that. Time to die. After a moment the laughed. "Right then, we'll do that at some point with us here."
Portman> "Yeah..definitely a little." Giving a muse, "Wait a minute, we're missing someone."(edited)
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus--:: looked over at Gibbs:: let me know if you need anything special for some of your dishes
Chef JC Gibbs: Gibbs grinned, "i can give you list a mile long." then chuckled
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Oh boy
::laughs::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus-- like I said let me know, the most commonly ones needed first
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: Portman> "There, that's who we're missing." Points to Gibbs. "Come join us."
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus--:: hands Gibbs a padd so he could start writing down the ones that he needs for his cooking so Seamus can get researching them
Chef JC Gibbs: "sorry portman cant right now i have stuff in the oven." Take s the padd from Seamus, "thanks."
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus-- no problem
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: Portman> "Aren't those on a timer?"
Chef JC Gibbs: "aye, but you see that pot i have special tea leaves in it to make a rare blend of Iced Tea."
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: Portman> She tilted her head a little bit back where the kitchen is, "Well no...considering the door is closed for one." Making a playful face and sticking her tongue out.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::he laughs more::
❙ Seamus MacDoughall & Sivain: Seamus--::chuckles::
Sivain--::smiles::
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: "I swear I joined a clown car, not a starship."
Portman> Just about spit out her water all over the table. "Did he just make a joke?"
Chef JC Gibbs: Gibbs just face palmed and went back to cooking. "you know portman you dont have to eat my food there is emergency rations you can eat."
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: That he did.
::looks at Gibbs::
❙❙ Lt Valarig- <<<●) CPO Portman: "And here we go...."
Portman> "Yeah well, you could be a little less uptight you know. Geez.."
Chef JC Gibbs: "commander you hear the crap i have to put up with. Back in my day as a MACO i spout off to the CHef i was eating dirt."
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: "Sorry Chef."
