Star Trek: Ascendant - Shakedown Cruise IC

An older man with a balding head materializes in front of Dr. Crescent's desk. "what is the nature of the medical emergency?"


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As Lt. Winters is thinking over requesitions, he hears the familiar whine of Commander Cherok's hover chair.

"What can I help you with Steven?", he asks. Lt. Winters notes the anticipation in his voice and watch his eyes keep drifting back to the engine room.

Raphael looks at the hologram for a moment as if something was wrong, then he shakes his head. Ah, sorry about that, I need you to run self diagnostics. Affirm that basic functions are working within standard parameters.

Hmm. I think they've changed it. It has a softer tone than I remembered. Sounds almost like dad.

 

[HolyMan]

"Oh the RCS thruster is connected to the phaser array, the phaser array is connected to the bussard collector..." Benson sings sarcasticly. "I hate diagonastic checks."

 

[knightemplar]

"Dr. Crescent, all self diagnostics confirm that base functions are operating within the normal perameters.", the holographic doctor responds."Anything else I can do for you, or do you want me to deactivate?"

"Ensign, help you want?" comes from behind Ensign Benson as he has a part of the steering system pulled apart for the diagnostic.

As you hand over the orders to both Lt. Srosski and Lt. Morrow. They scan the orders and start calling on various crewmen and give them orders.

Lt. Srosski puts down his PADD on the desk, "Sssir, did you want to oversee training in the morning?. I have an couple of the advanced ssstudents, and a new program sssent to me by Lt. Holmes of the Resolute. He sssays that it works well for one on multiple with a few other suprises thrown in. "

"Yes, I'll oversee the training in the morning, assuming we can get a good start on these diagnostics. Let me know if either of you run into any problems with your orders. Dismissed."

Once the two leave the security office, Hale taps his comm badge. "Security to engineering. I need a few engineers to assist in a level 1 diagnostic of the shi['s tactical systems. Can you spare some crew?"

A confused look comes across Winters' face at the sudden request. He didn't recognize the voice, "Very well, Security, I'll send you Lieutenant Grenandine and Ensign Cochrane. Winters Out."

"Do you know who that was, Commander?" he asks Cherok as he worries that it's becoming apparent he hasn't slept in over a day.

 

[knightemplar]

In his rasping voice, Cherok answers "Sounds like Hale. You might want to send him a couple of people since he only has a third of his staff, and Kris ordered Level 1 Diagnostics on all weapon systems. "

With the low moan from the hoverchair, Cherok glides over to the small replicator in the office. "Caff, Black." within a second, a steaming cup of Caff appears within the replicator. Cherok picks up the cup, and hovers back over to Steven's desk. "Here drink this. You will probably need it before the night is over."

"Beyond that, I am sure you heard what Kris told the young kid. Why do you think its the new Carsi system causing the problem with the buffers?"



GM's note: Ethandrew, I am not sure if you caught this. Morrow is a tactical officer already under the command of Rhun, while Vaxx is in Martinez's department.

All Security/Tactical, Operations, and Engineering department members are in Operations Personnel. Underneath the name is the assignment, in which your staff will have Engineering Officer with their speciality next to it.

You currently have Grenandine, Singh, Masaryk, Cochrane, Summers, Nakamura, and "11" assigned to your department as named NPCs. I will put more there once I flesh out some more npcs. Grenandine would be very useful in the Weapon Diagnostics since she is an engineer specializing in weapon and tactical systems.

Winters takes the black coffee in both hands, "Thanks." While not much of a coffee guy, when he did drink it, he took it black, no sugar or creamer. He hadn't ever really found that perfect blend that made it palatable, so he maintained the extreme bitterness of the drink.

After he had his first, and second drink, Winters' shoulders relaxed. "I'm not really sure it is the Carsi system, but I've exhausted my options. This is such a small problem, but it's a problem we shouldn't be having. And here I am, on a ship with Admiral Kiel and Commodore Rardon, and I can't even iron out this small wrinkle." He sighs, exasperated.

"If I eliminate all other options, then I've got a faulty part. I'm just doing my due diligence."

[sblock=OOC]knight - I totally understand now. I've revised my previous post with my recommendations to Hale.[/sblock]

OOC @ ethandrew: As much as Hale might like to be an Admiral, he is only a Lieutenant Commander.

 

[Rhun]

While Hale waits for Grenadine and Cochrane, he makes his way to the replicator. It was going to be a long night. "Iced Raktajino, double strong, extra cream" The Lieutenant Commander takes the drink and sniffs it...it was a habit he had picked up on the Budapest. The replicators had never seemed to function properly during his tour on that ship. But since this Rektajino seemed to smell just fine, Hale takes a large quaff from the cup, closing his eyes and savoring the taste of the drink.
